SECTION 2.
GUARANTEE



2.1 Guarantee. (a) This
guarantee supplements the existing Holdings Guarantee and the existing Subsidiaries Guarantee (each as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement). Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by HCC when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) of HCC Obligations.



(b) Anything
herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable
federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2).



(c) Each Guarantor agrees that HCC Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor
hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder.



(d) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all HCC Obligations and the obligations of each
Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by payment in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the
Senior Credit Agreement HCC may be free from any HCC Obligations.



(e) No payment made by HCC, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from HCC, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other

liability of any Guarantor hereunder (other than any payment made by such Person in respect of HCC Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Person in respect of HCC Obligations). Each Guarantor shall remain liable for the HCC
Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until HCC Obligations are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated



2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a
Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has
not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantors right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and

payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
against HCC or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of HCC Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or

payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by HCC on account of HCC Obligations are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated. If any
amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of HCC Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,
segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent,
if required), to be applied against HCC Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.



2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to HCC Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without
any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of HCC Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or
such Lender and any of HCC Obligations continued, and HCC Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to
time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Senior Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other
documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time
to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of HCC Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for HCC Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.



2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each
Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of HCC Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of
the guarantee contained in this Section 2; HCC Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section
2; and all dealings between HCC and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee
contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon HCC or any of the Guarantors with respect to HCC Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees
that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the
Senior Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of HCC Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by HCC or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other
circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of HCC or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of HCC for HCC Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee
contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no
obligation to, make a similar demand on



6

or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against HCC, any other Guarantor or any other
Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for HCC Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to
collect any payments from HCC, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of HCC, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such
collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof demand shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.



2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of HCC Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution,
liquidation or reorganization of HCC or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, HCC or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or
otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.



2.7 Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Funding Office.

shall be paid over from time to time by the Administrative Agent to HCC or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letters of Credit
shall be outstanding and the Commitments shall have terminated shall be paid over to HCC or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.



6.6 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the
Lenders, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the
New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice
required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon
the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more
parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, brokers board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales,
to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agents request, to
assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantors premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds
of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the
Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the
Administrative Agent may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without



15



---

limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the
surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the exercise by them of any rights
hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.



6.7 Private Sales. (a) Each Grantor recognizes that the
Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or
more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each
Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have
been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public
sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.



(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or
sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in
this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant
contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no
Event of Default has occurred under the Senior Credit Agreement.



6.8 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys
employed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.



SECTION 7. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT



7.1 Administrative Agents Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with
full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of
this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:



(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse
and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due



16



---

under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take
any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral whenever
payable;



(ii) in the case of
any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agents and the Lenders security interest
in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;



(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any
insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;



(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any indorsements, assignments or other
instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and



(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the
Administrative Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and
indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any
suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought
against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any
Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent
shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner
thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agents option and such Grantors expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon
the Collateral and the Administrative Agents and the Lenders security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.



Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.



(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its
agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.



(c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in
connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on any category of past due ABR Loans under the



17



---

Senior Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date reimbursed by
the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent on demand.



(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an
interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.



7.2 Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agents sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the
Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation
to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agents and the Lenders interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act
or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.



7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording
documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under
this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the collateral description all personal property in any such financing statements. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Administrative Agent
of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.



7.4 Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the
Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be governed by the Senior Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting
such authority.

SECTION 8.
MISCELLANEOUS



8.1 Amendments in Writing.
None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 11.1 of the Senior Credit Agreement.



8.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor
hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.2 of the Senior Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on
Schedule 1.



8.3 No Waiver by Course of
Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any
right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative,
may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.



8.4 [Intentionally Reserved]



8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the

Administrative Agent.



8.6 Set-Off. Each
Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to such Grantor or any other Grantor, any such notice
being expressly waived by each Grantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each
case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the
Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Grantor to the Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Administrative Agent or
such Lender against such Grantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Senior Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or
any Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall notify such Grantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made
by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this
Section 8.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent or such Lender may have.
