Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for itself and for the Secured Parties, accepts, all of the Pledged Assets, as continuing first ranking security (“gage”) in favour of the Collateral Agent in accordance in particular with
the Collateral Law and article 114 and following of the Luxembourg Commercial Code.

Collateral Agent accepts, that any Securities issued to (or acquired by, or exchanged with the Securities existing on the date hereof in any way) the Pledgor after the date hereof, are immediately subject to the Pledge upon issuance to (or

securities (the “3-16 Excluded Collateral”) shall automatically be deemed to be released and (ii) the 3-16 Excluded Collateral shall automatically be deemed to not be, and to not have been, Pledged Assets, in each case to the
extent necessary to render such requirement inapplicable. In such event, this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended or modified, without the consent of any Secured Party, to the extent necessary to evidence the release of the Liens on
the Equity Interests or other securities that are so deemed no longer to constitute Pledged Assets. For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph shall result in any release or termination of the security interest granted pursuant to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document in any 3-16 Excluded Collateral to the extent such security interest secures the Credit Facilities Obligations or any Permitted Secured Debt in the form of term loans. 
 2.4. The Company recognises and accepts the Pledge in accordance with the provisions of Luxembourg law.

this Agreement, (i) inscribe the Pledge over the Pledged Assets in the relevant Register as first ranking pledge for the benefit of the Collateral Agent (and the Secured Parties) subject to Liens created by or permitted under the Loan Documents
and (ii) provide the Collateral Agent with a copy of the relevant Register evidencing such inscription. The wording for such registration is set forth in Schedule 1. 
 3.3. Without prejudice to the above provisions, the Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorises and empowers the Collateral Agent to cause any formal steps to be taken by the managers or other officers of the Company for
the purpose of perfecting the present Pledge and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor hereby irrevocably undertakes to take any such steps if so requested in writing by the Collateral Agent (acting reasonably). In particular, should any such
steps be reasonably required in relation to Future Securities, the Pledgor and the Company undertake (without prejudice to the right of the Collateral Agent herein) to take any such steps promptly upon issuance or receipt of any Future Securities.
