Recitals 
 1. On
February 14, 2013, the Company, the Investors and the Stockholders entered into that certain Stockholders Agreement (the “Original Agreement”). 

2. The parties believe it is in the best interests of the Company and the Stockholders to amend and restate the Original Agreement to provide
for, among other things, the release of certain Stockholders from the provisions thereof. 
 Agreement 

Therefore, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  

	1.	EFFECTIVENESS; DEFINITIONS 

 1.1 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become
effective upon the execution hereof by the Company, the Investors and the Majority Managers (the “Effective Date”). 
 1.2
Definitions. Certain terms are used in this Agreement as specifically defined herein. These definitions are set forth or referred to in Section 7 hereof. 
  

	2.	TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS 

 No holder of Shares shall Transfer any of such Shares to any
other Person except as provided in this Section 2. 
 2.1 Permitted Transferees. 

2.1.1 Affiliates. Any holder of Shares may Transfer any or all of such Shares to an Affiliate of such holder or to a Charitable
Organization. 







 2.1.2 Estate Planning. Any holder of Shares who is a natural Person may Transfer any or
all of such Shares (i) by gift to, or for the benefit of, any Member or Members of the Immediate Family of such holder, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of such holder and/or any Member or Members of the Immediate Family of such holder, or
(iii) to any other trust in respect of which such holder serves as trustee; provided, however, that the trust instrument governing such trust shall provide that such holder, as trustee, shall retain sole and exclusive control over the
voting and disposition of such Shares until the termination of this Agreement. 
 2.1.3 Upon Death. Upon the death of any holder of
Shares who is a natural Person, such Shares may be distributed by the will or other instrument taking effect at death of such holder or by applicable laws of descent and distribution to such holder’s estate, executors, administrators and
personal representatives, and then to such holder’s heirs, legatees or distributees, whether or not such recipients are Members of the Immediate Family of such holder or a Charitable Organization. 

2.1.4 Investors and Company. Any holder of Shares may Transfer any or all of such Shares to (a) any Investor, (b) the Company
in order to satisfy a tax withholding obligation in connection with the vesting of a stock option or the vesting of restricted stock, or (c) with the Board’s approval, the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. 

2.1.5 Additional Permitted Transfers by the Investors. Any holder of Investor Shares may Transfer any or all of such Shares (a) to
an Investor or an Affiliated Fund or (b) to its partners or members or to Affiliates of any of the foregoing. 
 No Transfer permitted under the terms
of this Section 2.1 (other than a Transfer to the Company pursuant to Section 2.1.4) shall be effective unless the transferee of such Shares (each, a “Permitted Transferee”) has delivered to the Company a
written acknowledgment and agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such Shares to be received by such Permitted Transferee shall remain Investor Shares or Management Shares, as the case may be, and shall be
subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement and that such Permitted Transferee shall be bound by, and shall be a party to, this Agreement as the holder of Investor Shares or Management Shares, as the case may be, hereunder; provided,
however, that Shares Transferred to any director, officer or employee of, or consultant or adviser to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries by a holder of Investor Shares shall thereafter become Management Shares hereunder; and
provided further that no Transfer by any holder of Shares to a Permitted Transferee shall relieve such holder of any of its obligations hereunder. 

2.2 Transfers to the Public. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.3.4, any holder of Shares may Transfer such Shares in a
Public Offering or pursuant to Rule 144, if such transfer would not result in, (x) in the case of a Non-Senior Manager, the Relative Ownership Percentage (as defined below) of the Management Shares owned by such Manager immediately following
the effective time of such Transfer (the “Determination Time”) being less than the lesser of (i) the applicable Sell-Down Percentage immediately following the Determination Time, and (ii) the Relative Ownership Percentage
of the Shares owned by the Investors immediately following the Determination Time, or, (y) in the case of a Senior Manager, the Relative Ownership Percentage of the Management Shares owned by such Senior Manager immediately following the
Determination Time being less than the Relative Ownership Percentage of the Shares owned by 

  
 2 








 
the Investors immediately following the Determination Time. For purposes of this Section 2.2, “Relative Ownership Percentage” means: 

(a) with respect to the Shares held by such Manager or Senior Manager, a fraction (expressed as a percentage), (A) the
numerator of which is the number of Shares owned by such Manager or Senior Manager immediately following the Determination Time and (B) the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Shares purchased by or issued to such Manager or Senior
Manager at any time prior to the Determination Time, and 
 (b) with respect to the Shares held by the Investors, a fraction
(expressed as a percentage), (A) the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Shares owned by the Investors immediately following the Determination Time and (B) the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Shares purchased by
or issued to the Investors at any time prior to the Determination Time. 
 In the event a Non-Senior Manager is promoted and becomes a Senior Manager, such
Manager will not be deemed to have violated the terms of this Section 2.2 as a result of any Transfers that were permitted hereunder prior to such promotion. 

2.2.1 Any Investor or Manager Transferring Shares shall notify the Company following the consummation of such Transfer of the number of Shares
Transferred. Any Manager wishing to Transfer Shares pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be entitled to obtain prior to such Transfer, and rely upon, a statement from the Company, of the number of Shares that such Manager may Transfer pursuant
to this Section 2.2. 
 2.2.2 Any Shares Transferred pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall conclusively be deemed
thereafter not to be Shares or Registrable Securities under this Agreement and not to be subject to any of the provisions hereof or entitled to the benefit of any of the provisions hereof 

2.3 Impermissible Transfer. Any attempted Transfer of Shares not permitted under the terms of this Section 2 shall be null
and void, and the Company shall not in any way give effect to any such impermissible Transfer. 
 2.4 Period. The foregoing
provisions of this Section 2 shall expire upon the earlier of (a) a Change of Control and (b) the earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the Initial Public Offering and (ii) the date on which the Relative Ownership
Percentage of the Investors is less than 33.3%. 
  

	3.	REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

 The Company will perform and comply, and cause each of its
subsidiaries to perform and comply, with such of the following provisions as are applicable to it. Each holder of Shares will perform and comply with such of the following provisions as are applicable to such holder. 

  
 3 








 3.1 Demand Registration Rights. 

3.1.1 General. One or more holders of Investor Shares representing at least 25% of the total amount of Investor Shares then outstanding
(“Initiating Investors”), by notice to the Company specifying the intended method or methods of disposition, may request that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act for a Public Offering of all or a specified
part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investors (for purposes of this Agreement, “Registrable Investor Securities” shall mean Registrable Securities constituting Investor Shares). Upon receipt of any such
request, the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register by such Initiating Investors together with all other Registrable
Securities which the Company has been requested to register pursuant to Section 3.2 by notice delivered to the Company within two (2) Business Days after the Company has given the notice required by Section 3.2.1 (which
request shall specify the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities), all to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities which the
Company has been so requested to register; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 3.1.1: 

(a) Upon the request of the Company, provided that the Company shall be entitled to make such request only once per any 365 day
period, in which case the Company may delay such registration until the later of (i) the 30th day following the effective date of any registration statement pertaining to an underwritten public offering of securities of the Company for its own
account (other than a Rule 145 Transaction, or a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans) or (ii) the expiration of any lock-up agreement between the Investors or the Company and the underwriter; or 

(b) On any form other than Form S-3 (or any successor form) if the Company has previously effected four or more registrations
of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.1.1 requested by Initiating Investors on any form other than Form S-3 (or any successor form); provided, however, that no registrations of Registrable Securities which shall
not have become and remained effective in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 and no registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to which the Initiating Investors and all other holders of Registrable Investor Securities
joining therein are not able to include at least 90% of the Registrable Securities which they desired to include, shall be included in the calculation of numbers of registrations contemplated by this clause (b). 

3.1.2 Form. Except as otherwise provided above, each registration requested pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be effected by
the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any other form which includes substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement on such form as currently constituted), unless the use of a
different form has been agreed to in writing by holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in the proposed registration statement in question (the “Majority Participating Investors”). 

  
 4 








 3.1.3 Payment of Expenses. The Company shall pay all reasonable expenses of the Initiating
Investors incurred in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.1, which shall include one legal counsel selected by the Initiating Investors, other than underwriting discount and
commission, if any, and applicable transfer taxes, if any. 
 3.1.4 Additional Procedures. In the case of a registration pursuant to
Section 3.1 hereof, whenever the Majority Participating Investors shall request that such registration shall be effected pursuant to an underwritten offering, the Company shall include such information in the written notices to holders
of Registrable Securities referred to in Section 3.2. In such event, the right of any holder of Registrable Securities to have securities owned by such holder included in such registration pursuant to Section 3.1 shall be
conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Majority Participating Investors and such
holder). If requested by such underwriters, the Company together with the holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such
offering containing such representations and warranties by the Company and such holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including customary
indemnity and contribution provisions (subject, in each case, to the limitations on such liabilities set forth in this Agreement). 
 3.2
Piggyback Registration Rights. 
 3.2.1 Piggyback Registration. 

(a) General. Each time the Company proposes to register any shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act on a form
which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public, for its own account and/or for the account of an Investor or an Affiliated Fund (pursuant to Section 3.1 or otherwise) for sale in a Public Offering (other
than any Public Offering that is a secondary offering in the form of a block trade), the Company will give notice to all holders of Registrable Securities (other than Non-Senior Managers) of its intention to do so. Any such holder may, by written
response delivered to the Company within 2 Business Days after the effectiveness of such notice, request that all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such holder be included in such registration. The Company thereupon will use
its reasonable efforts to cause to be included in such registration under the Securities Act all shares of Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by such holders, to the extent required to permit the disposition
(in accordance with the methods to be used by the Company or other holders of shares of Common Stock in such Public Offering) of the Registrable Securities to be so registered. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this
Section 3.2 shall relieve the Company of any of its obligations to effect registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof. 

  
 5 








 (b) Excluded Transactions. The Company shall not be obligated to effect
any registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.2 incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with: 

(i) Any Public Offering relating to employee benefit plans or dividend reinvestment plans; or 

(ii) Any Public Offering relating to the acquisition or merger after the date hereof by the Company or any of its subsidiaries
of or with any other businesses. 
 3.2.2 Payment of Expenses. The Company shall pay all reasonable expenses of a single legal
counsel representing any and all holders of Registrable Securities incurred in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.2. 

3.2.3 Additional Procedures. Holders of Shares participating in any Public Offering pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall take
all such actions and execute all such documents and instruments that are reasonably requested by the Company to effect the sale of their Shares in such Public Offering, including being parties to the underwriting agreement entered into by the
Company and any other selling shareholders in connection therewith and being liable in respect of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements (including customary selling stockholder representations, warranties, indemnifications
and “lock-up” agreements) for the benefit of the underwriters; provided, however, that (a) with respect to individual representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of sellers of Shares in such Public Offering,
the aggregate amount of such liability shall not exceed such holder’s net proceeds from such offering and (b) to the extent selling stockholders give further representations, warranties and indemnities, then with respect to all other
representations, warranties and indemnities of sellers of shares in such Public Offering, the aggregate amount of such liability shall not exceed the lesser of (i) such holder’s pro rata portion of any such liability, in accordance with
such holder’s portion of the total number of Shares included in the offering or (ii) such holder’s net proceeds from such offering. 

3.3 Certain Other Provisions. 

3.3.1 Underwriter’s Cutback. In connection with any registration of shares, the underwriter may determine that marketing factors
(including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 3 and subject to the terms of this
Section 3.3.1, the underwriter may limit the number of shares which would otherwise be included in such registration by excluding any or all Registrable Securities from such registration (it being understood that the number of shares
which the Company seeks to have registered in such registration shall not be subject to exclusion, in whole or in part, under this Section 3.3.1). Upon receipt of notice from the underwriter of the need to reduce the number of shares to
be included in the registration, the Company shall advise all holders of the Company’s securities that would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of such securities, including Registrable
Securities, that may be included in the registration shall be allocated in the following manner, unless the underwriter in its sole discretion shall determine in 

  
 6 








 
good faith that marketing factors require a different allocation: shares, other than Registrable Securities, requested to be included in such registration by shareholders shall be excluded unless
the Company has, with the consent of the Majority Investors, granted registration rights which are to be treated on an equal basis with Registrable Securities for the purpose of the exercise of the underwriter cutback; and, if a limitation on the
number of shares is still required, the number of Registrable Securities and other shares of Common Stock that may be included in such registration shall be allocated among holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective
amounts of Common Stock which each shareholder requested be registered in such registration. For purposes of any underwriter cutback, all Common Stock held by any holder of Registrable Securities shall also include any Common Stock held by the
partners, retired partners, shareholders or affiliated entities of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such holder or such partners and retired partners, any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons and, at the
election of such holder or such partners, retired partners, trusts or affiliated entities, any Charitable Organization to which any of the foregoing shall have contributed Common Stock prior to the execution of the underwriting agreement in
connection with such underwritten offering, and such holder and other persons shall be deemed to be a single selling holder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to such selling holder shall be based upon the aggregate amount of Common Stock
owned by all entities and individuals included in such selling holder, as defined in this sentence. No securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. Upon
delivery of a written request that Registrable Securities be included in the underwriting pursuant to Section 3.1.1 or 3.2.1, the holder thereof may not thereafter elect to withdraw therefrom without the written consent the
Company and the Majority Investors. 
 3.3.2 Other Actions. If and in each case when the Company is required to use its best
efforts to effect a registration of any Registrable Securities as provided in this Section 3, the Company shall take appropriate and customary actions in furtherance thereof, including: (a) promptly filing with the Commission a
registration statement and using reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, (b) preparing and filing with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statements as may be required to
comply with the Securities Act and to keep such registration statement effective for a period not to exceed 270 days from the date of effectiveness or such earlier time as the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have
been disposed of in accordance with the intended method of distribution therefor or the expiration of the time when a prospectus relating to such registration is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, (c) use its best efforts to
register or qualify such Registrable Securities under the state securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers shall reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any
general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise be so
subject; and (d) otherwise cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection with, such registration, including, without limitation, participation in
due diligence sessions, drafting sessions, management presentations and “road shows” by its officers and employees. 
 3.3.3
Selection of Underwriters and Counsel. The underwriters and legal counsel to be retained in connection with any Public Offering shall be selected by the Board or, in the case of an offering following a request therefor under
Section 3.1.1, the Initiating Investors. 

  
 7 








 3.3.4 Lock-Up. Without the prior written consent of the underwriters managing any Public
Offering, for a period beginning seven days immediately preceding and ending on the 90th day following the effective date of the registration statement used in connection with such offering, neither the Company nor any Senior Manager who has had
Registrable Securities registered in connection with such Public Offering pursuant to Section 3.2 shall (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell,
grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise Transfer, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such Common Stock or (b) enter into any swap
or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by
delivery of such Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (i) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired
in open market transactions, (ii) Transfers to a Permitted Transferee of such holder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iii) conversions of shares of Common Stock into other classes of Common Stock without change of holder or
(iv) during the period preceding the execution of the underwriting agreement in connection with an underwritten offering, Transfers to a Charitable Organization. 

3.3.5 Limitations on Subsequent Rights. The Company shall not enter into any agreement that would provide any party the right to
include securities in any registration filed under Section 3.1.1 or 3.2.1 if such agreement provides such party underwriters’ cutback rights that are more favorable than the underwriters’ cutback rights provided to
holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.3.1 of this Agreement. 
 3.4 Indemnification and Contribution.

 3.4.1 Indemnities of the Company. In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities or other debt or equity securities
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 3 or otherwise, and in connection with any registration statement or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries including reports required and other documents filed under the Exchange Act, and other documents pursuant to which any debt or equity securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries are sold (whether or not for the account
of the Company or its subsidiaries), the Company will, and hereby does, and will cause each of its subsidiaries, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each seller of Registrable Securities, any Person who is or might be deemed to be
a controlling Person of the Company or any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, their respective direct and indirect partners, advisory board members, directors,
officers, trustees, members and shareholders, and each other Person, if any, who controls any such seller or any such holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such person being
referred to herein as a “Covered Person”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Covered Person may be or become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange 

  
 8 








 
Act, any other securities or other law of any jurisdiction, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any registration statement under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus included therein, or any related summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the
Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or other document or report, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and relating to action or
inaction in connection with any such registration, disclosure document or other document or report, and will reimburse such Covered Person for any legal or any other expenses incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall be liable to any Covered Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, action or proceeding arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary
prospectus, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other such disclosure document or other document or report, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or to any of its subsidiaries through an
instrument duly executed by such Covered Person specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof. The indemnities of the Company and of its subsidiaries contained in this Section 3.4.1 shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Covered Person and shall survive any transfer of securities. 
 3.4.2
Indemnities to the Company. The Company and any of its subsidiaries may require, as a condition to including any securities in any registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 3, that the Company and any of its
subsidiaries shall have received an undertaking satisfactory to it from the prospective seller of such securities, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and any of its subsidiaries, each director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, each
officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who shall sign such registration statement and each other Person (other than such seller), if any, who controls the Company and any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other prospective seller of such securities with respect to any statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary
prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any other disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act or any document incorporated therein) or other document or report, if such
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any of its subsidiaries through an instrument executed by such seller specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation
of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other document or report. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any such director, officer or controlling Person and shall survive any transfer of securities.

 3.4.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 3.4.1 or
3.4.2 hereof is unavailable to a party that would have been entitled to indemnification pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4 (an “Indemnitee”) in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each party that would have been an indemnifying party thereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnifying party on the one hand and such Indemnitee on
the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof). The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or such Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.4.3 were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentence. The amount paid or payable by a contributing party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 3.4.3 shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
