the Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Lien Credit Agreement. The Grantor is an Affiliate of the Borrower and is willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans
and the Issuing Banks to issue additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings specified in the First Lien Collateral
Agreement. The rules of construction specified in Section 1.01(b) of the First Lien Collateral Agreement also apply to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.
Grant of Security Interest. As security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full of the Secured Obligations, the Grantor hereby grants to the First Lien Collateral Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the United States Trademarks listed on Schedule I attached hereto (the “Trademark
Collateral”). This Agreement is not to be construed as an assignment of any trademark or trademark application. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trademark Collateral shall not include, and in no event shall the Security
Interest attach to, any intent-to-use trademark applications filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, pursuant to Section 1(b) of the Lanham Act, 15
U.S.C. Section 1051, prior to the accepted filing of a “Statement of Use” and issuance of a “Certificate of Registration” pursuant to Section 1(d) of the Lanham Act or an accepted filing of an “Amendment to Allege
Use” whereby such intent-to-use trademark application is converted to a “use in commerce” application pursuant to Section 1(c) of the Lanham Act.

 SECTION 3. Termination. Subject to Section 5.13 of the First Lien Collateral Agreement, upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, the
security interest granted herein shall terminate and the First Lien Collateral Agent shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Grantors all instruments in writing in recordable form to evidence and release the collateral pledge, grant,
assignment, lien and security interest in the Trademark Collateral under this Agreement. 












 
SECTION 4. First Lien Collateral Agreement. The Grantor hereby acknowledges and affirms that the rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent with respect to the Trademark 

Collateral are more fully set forth in the First Lien Collateral Agreement, the terms and provisions of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference as

shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually
