 - 6 -









 (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 2.02). 
 (c) Each
Guarantor agrees that the Borrower 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 Article II or affecting the rights and
remedies of any Secured Party hereunder. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that if the maturity of the Borrower
Obligations is accelerated by bankruptcy or otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of this guarantee without demand or notice to such Guarantor. Unless released pursuant to Section 9.14, the guarantee of each
Guarantor contained in this Article II shall remain in full force and effect until all the Borrower Obligations shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash. 

(e) No payment made by any Grantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Secured Party
from the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Borrower
Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations
or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in
cash. 
 Section 2.02 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall
have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.
Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.03. The provisions of this Section 2.02 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Secured
Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 
 Section 2.03 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be
entitled to exercise its rights to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Secured Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Secured Party for the payment of the
Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek any indemnity, exoneration, participation, contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to
the Secured Parties on account of the Borrower Obligations are irrevocably and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations
shall not have been irrevocably and indefeasibly paid in full in cash, such amount

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 the Borrower Obligations in accordance with Section 10.02(c) of the Credit
Agreement. 
 Section 2.04 Guaranty Amendments, Etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor shall
remain obligated hereunder, and such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected, notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to, demand upon or
further assent by any Guarantor (which notice, demand and assent requirements are hereby expressly waived by such Guarantor): (a) any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by any Secured Party may be rescinded by such
Secured Party or otherwise and any of the Borrower Obligations continued; (b) the Borrower Obligations, 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, or any indulgence or forbearance in respect thereof granted by, any Secured Party;
(c) any Secured Document may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Secured Parties may deem advisable from time to time; (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by
any Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released; (e) any additional guarantors, makers or endorsers of the Borrower Obligations may from time to time be obligated on the
Borrower Obligations or any additional security or collateral for the payment and performance of the Borrower Obligations may from time to time secure the Borrower Obligations; or (f) any other event shall occur which constitutes a defense or

Representations and Warranties 
 To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective loans to the Borrower thereunder, the Borrower and, solely with
respect to itself and as applicable, each other Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that: 
 Section 4.01 Representations in Credit Agreement. In the case of each Grantor other than the Borrower, the representations and warranties set forth in Article VII of the Credit Agreement
as they relate to such Grantor or to the Loan Documents to which such Grantor is a party, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference, are true and correct, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on each of
them, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Borrower’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this Section 4.01, be deemed to be a reference to such Grantor’s knowledge. 

Section 4.02 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the ratable
benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral by the Credit Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. No
financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, pursuant to this Agreement or the First Lien Agent, for the ratable benefit of the First Lien Lenders and certain other secured parties, pursuant to the First Lien Loan Documents or as are permitted by the Credit Agreement, and such as
shall be terminated substantially contemporaneous with the consummation of the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any Grantor may, as part of its business, grant licenses to third parties to use Intellectual
Property owned or developed by a Grantor. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such licensing activity shall not constitute a “Lien” on such Intellectual Property. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender
understands that any such licenses may be exclusive to the applicable licensees, and such exclusivity provisions may limit the ability of the Administrative Agent to utilize, sell, lease or transfer the related Intellectual Property or otherwise
realize value from such Intellectual Property pursuant hereto.

security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor and (b) are prior to all other Liens on

security interest in the Pledged LLC Interests or the Pledged Partnership Interests, (ii) the perfection of such security interest or (iii) the exercise of remedies in respect of such perfected security interest in the Pledged LLC

impaired. Such Grantor will not (either itself or through licensees) knowingly, do any act whereby any material portion of the Copyrights may fall into the public domain. 

  
 - 19 -









 (d) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not knowingly use
any material Intellectual Property to infringe the intellectual property rights of any other Person. 
 (e) Such
Grantor or the Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as soon as reasonably practicable after it knows, or a Responsible Officer has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any material Intellectual
Property may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any material Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s right to register the
same or to own and maintain the same. 
 (f) Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent,
employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country
or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report such filing to the Administrative Agent in the certificate it delivers pursuant to Section 8.01(c) of the Credit Agreement which covers the quarterly period in which such filing
occurred. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the
Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby. 

(g) Such Grantor will take all reasonable and necessary steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the
United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant
registration) and to maintain each registration of the material Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability. 

(h) In the event that any material Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such
Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the
Administrative Agent after it learns thereof and sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution. 

Section 5.10 Commercial Tort Claims. If such Grantor shall obtain an interest in any Commercial Tort Claim with an asserted
value in excess of $1,000,000, such Grantor shall within 30 days of obtaining such interest sign and deliver documentation acceptable to the Administrative Agent that grants a security interest under the terms and provisions of this Agreement in and
to such Commercial Tort Claim.

 ARTICLE VI 
 Remedial Provisions 
 Section 6.01 Certain Matters Relating to
Receivables. At any time after the occurrence and the continuation of an Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement: 
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Receivables in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and each Grantor shall furnish
all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may require in connection with such test verifications. At any time and from time to time, upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such
Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Receivables.

 (b) The Administrative Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Receivables,
subject to the Administrative Agent’s direction and control, and the Administrative Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required by the
Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited
by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders only as provided in Section 6.05, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. 

(c) At the Administrative Agent’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all original and
other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including, without limitation, all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts. 

Section 6.02 Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. 

(a) The Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in its own
name or in the name of others may at any time communicate with obligors under the Receivables to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables. 

  
 - 21 -









 (b) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables that the Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments
in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent. 
 (c) Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise
thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement
giving rise thereto) or Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take
any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 
 Section 6.03 Pledged Securities. 
 (a) Unless an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.03(b), each
Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Securities and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, in each case paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer and consistent with
past practice, to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other
organizational right exercised or other action taken which, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable judgment, would impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement,
this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the
Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, during the pendancy of such Event of Default, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the
right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine, and (ii) any or all of
the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, and the Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter and during the pendancy of such Default exercise (A) all voting, corporate and other
rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (B) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options
pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization,


  
 - 22 -









 
recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Administrative Agent of any right,
privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency
upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right,
privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. 
 (c) Each
Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (A) states that an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so
complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Administrative Agent. 

Section 6.04 Proceeds to be Turned Over to Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders specified in Section 6.01 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such
Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the
exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All such Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account
maintained under its sole dominion and control. All such Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) shall continue to be held as collateral
security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.05. 

Section 6.05 Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent may, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting
Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Article II, in payment of the Obligations in accordance with Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement. 

Section 6.06 Code and Other Remedies. 

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may,
subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the


  
 - 23 -









 
Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law or otherwise available at law or equity. 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 any
Secured Party 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. Any Secured Party 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. Any such sale or transfer by the Administrative Agent either to itself or to any other Person shall be absolutely free from any claim of right by any Grantor, including any equity or
right of redemption, stay or appraisal which any Grantor has or may have under any rule of law, regulation or statute now existing or hereafter adopted (and each Grantor hereby waives any rights it may have in respect thereof). Upon any such sale or
transfer, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser or transferee thereof the Collateral so sold or transferred. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it
pursuant to this Section 6.06, 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 Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in accordance with Section 10.02(c)
of the Credit Agreement, 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 limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the 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 Secured Party arising out of
the exercise by them of any rights hereunder except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party or their respective agents. 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. 

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent elects not to sell the Collateral, the Administrative Agent retains its
rights to dispose of or utilize the Collateral or any part or parts thereof in any manner authorized or permitted by law or in equity, and to apply the proceeds of the same towards payment of the Obligations. Each and every method of disposition of
the Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute disposition in a commercially reasonable manner. Without limitation of the foregoing, any disposition involving three (3) or more bidders that are “accredited investors”
(within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall constitute disposition in a commercially reasonable manner. 

  
 - 24 -









 (c) The Administrative Agent may appoint any Person as agent to perform any
act or acts necessary or incident to any sale or transfer of the Collateral. 
 Section 6.07 Registration Rights.

 (a) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged
Securities pursuant to Section 6.06, and if in the opinion of the Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Securities, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the
relevant Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to
be done all such other acts as may be, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register the Pledged Securities, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use
its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged Securities, or that portion
thereof to be sold and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Issuer to make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable to enable it
to realize upon such Collateral, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts
to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions which the Administrative Agent shall designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an
earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act. 
 (b) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Securities, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws or otherwise, or may determine that a public sale is impracticable or not commercially reasonable, and, accordingly, may 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 Securities 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. 

  
 - 25 -









 (c) Each Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable 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 Securities pursuant to this Section 6.07 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Governmental
Requirements. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.07 will cause irreparable injury to the Secured Parties, that the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such
breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.07 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, 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 Credit Agreement. 
 Section 6.08 Waiver; Deficiency. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives and agrees not to assert any rights or privileges which it may acquire under the UCC.
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 Secured Party to collect such deficiency. 
 Section 6.09 Non-Judicial Enforcement. The Administrative Agent may
enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, and to the extent permitted by law, each Grantor expressly waives any and all legal rights which might otherwise require the Administrative Agent to enforce its rights
by judicial process. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 The Administrative Agent 
 Section 7.01 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, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, 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 under any Receivable or Contract 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 Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable; 

  
 - 26 -









 (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 Secured Parties’ 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 or any other Loan Document 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 6.06 or Section 6.07, any
indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and 

(v) (A) 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; (B) 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; (C) 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; (D) in the name of such Grantor, or in its own name, or otherwise, 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; (E) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (F) 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; (G) 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 (H) 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 Secured Parties’ 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 7.01(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 7.01(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.


  
 - 27 -









 (c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with
actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.01, together with interest thereon at the post-default rate specified in Section 3.02(c) of the Credit Agreement, but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, 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. 

Section 7.02 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 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, and the
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which comparable secured parties accord
comparable collateral. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their Related Parties 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 Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such
powers. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties 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 Related Parties shall be responsible to any
Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty whatsoever to make or give any
presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice or demand in connection with any Collateral or the Obligations, or to take any steps
necessary to preserve any rights against any Grantor or other Person or ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not it has or is deemed
to have knowledge of such matters. Each Grantor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives any right of marshaling in respect of any and all Collateral, and waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to proceed
against any Grantor or other Person, exhaust any Collateral or enforce any other remedy which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against any Grantor or other Person. 

Section 7.03 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to the UCC and any other 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


  
 - 28 -









 
Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a
financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” or “all
assets” 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. 

Section 7.04 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 Secured Parties, be governed by the 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 Secured Parties 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. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

Subordination of Indebtedness 
 Section 8.01 Subordination of All Grantor Claims. As used herein, the term “Grantor Claims” shall mean all debts and obligations of the Borrower or any other Grantor to any
other Grantor, whether such debts and obligations now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligation of the debtor thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of
whether such debts or obligations be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts or obligations may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the
manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by. After and during the continuation of an Event of Default, no Grantor shall receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from any obligor in respect thereof any amount upon the Grantor
Claims. 
 Section 8.02 Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving any Grantor, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall have the right to prove their claim in any such proceeding, so as to establish
their rights hereunder and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian, dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Grantor Claims. Subject to the Intercreditor
Agreement, each Grantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties for application against the Borrower Obligations as provided under
Section 10.02(c) of the Credit Agreement. Should any Agent or Secured Party receive, for application upon the Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to any Grantor, and which, as between such Grantors, shall
constitute a credit upon the Grantor Claims, then upon payment in full in cash of the Borrower Obligations, the expiration of all 

  
 - 29 -









 
Letters of Credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement and the termination of all of the Commitments, the intended recipient shall become subrogated to the rights of the Administrative Agent
and the Secured Parties to the extent that such payments to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties on the Grantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that
proportion of the Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties had not received dividends or payments upon the Grantor Claims. 
 Section 8.03 Payments Held in Trust. In the event that, notwithstanding Section 8.01 and Section 8.02, any Grantor should receive any funds, payments, claims or distributions which
is prohibited by such Sections, then it agrees, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) to hold in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so
received and (b) that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions except to pay them promptly to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and each Grantor
covenants promptly to pay the same to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 8.04 Liens Subordinate. Each Grantor
agrees that, until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full in cash, any Liens securing payment of the Grantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any Liens securing payment of the Obligations, regardless of whether such
encumbrances in favor of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no Grantor, during the period in which any of the
Borrower Obligations are outstanding, shall (a) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against any debtor in respect of the Grantor Claims or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any
action or proceeding (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of or joinder in any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any Lien held by it.

ARTICLE IX 

Miscellaneous 
 Section 9.01 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to
Section 9.04), 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 Secured Party, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege hereunder, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, 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 Secured Party of any
right or 

  
 - 30 -









 
remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party 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 or equity. 
 Section 9.02 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be given in the manner and subject to the terms of Section 12.01 of the 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. 
 Section 9.03 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnities. 
 (a)
Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse each Secured Party and the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Article II or otherwise enforcing or
preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to each Secured Party and of counsel to the Administrative
Agent. 
 (b) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties harmless
from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all Other Taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (c) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the
Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement. 
 (d) The agreements in this Section 9.03 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 9.04 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 12.02 of the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 9.05 Successors and
Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantors and their successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted
assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders, and any such purported assignment,
transfer or delegation shall be null and void.

 Section 9.06 Survival; Revival; Reinstatement. 

(a) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Grantor herein and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Administrative Agent, the other Agents and the Lenders and shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the other Agents or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any Loan is made, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and unpaid. The provisions of Section 9.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans or the
termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 
 (b) To the extent
that any payments on the Obligations or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any
bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Parties’
Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and the Borrower shall take such
action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to effect such reinstatement. 

Section 9.07 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. 

(b) This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the
Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and
thereof. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO
UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 
 (c) This Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties


  
 - 32 -









 
hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.08 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 9.09 Set-Off. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, at any time and from time to time, without notice to such Person or any other Grantor, any such
notice being expressly waived by each Grantor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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, claims or obligations (of whatsoever kind, including, without limitations obligations under Swap Agreements), in any currency, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such
Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any of and all the obligations and liabilities of the Grantor owed to such Lender now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.09 are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have. 
 Section 9.10 Governing Law;
Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW PERMITS ANY LENDER TO CONTRACT FOR, CHARGE, RECEIVE, RESERVE OR TAKE INTEREST AT THE RATE ALLOWED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE SUCH LENDER IS

Section 9.12 Acknowledgments. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that: 

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party; 

  
 - 34 -









 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party has any fiduciary
relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties, on the
other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint
venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Secured Parties or among the Grantors and the Secured Parties. 

(d) Each of the parties hereto specifically agrees that it has a duty to read this Agreement, the Security Instruments and
the other Loan Documents and agrees that it is charged with notice and knowledge of the terms of this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents; that it has in fact read this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the other
Loan Documents and is fully informed and has full notice and knowledge of the terms, conditions and effects thereof; that it has been represented by independent legal counsel of its choice throughout the negotiations preceding its execution of this
Agreement and the Security Instruments; and has received the advice of its attorney in entering into this Agreement and the Security Instruments; and that it recognizes that certain of the terms of this Agreement and the Security Instruments result
in one party assuming the liability inherent in some aspects of the transaction and relieving the other party of its responsibility for such liability. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT CONTEST THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY
OF ANY EXCULPATORY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE SECURITY INSTRUMENTS ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH PROVISION OR THAT THE PROVISION IS NOT “CONSPICUOUS.” 

Section 9.13 Additional Grantors and Additional Pledged Securities. Each Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to
become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.14 of the Credit Agreement shall become a party hereto as a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an Assumption Agreement and shall

 Section 9.14 Releases. 
 (a) Release Upon Payment in Full. The grant of the security interest hereunder, all other grants of interests, set off and other Liens hereunder, and all guarantees provided for herein, the
security interest granted hereunder, all other interest, set offs and other Liens granted hereunder, and all guarantees provided for herein, and all Lien rights, powers and interests and guarantee benefits with respect thereto shall automatically
terminate and be null and void immediately upon the date that the Borrower Obligations (other than Indebtedness consisting of payment obligations that are provided under each Loan Document as surviving the termination of any Loan Document or other
transactions contemplated thereby, or words of similar import) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, and the Administrative Agent, at the written request and expense of the Borrower, will promptly take all steps and actions


  
 - 35 -









 
requested by the Borrower to evidence and more fully effect the foregoing termination, including the release, reassignment and transfer, without recourse or warranty, of the property theretofore
constituting the Collateral to the Grantors and the declaration of all such guarantees and this Agreement to be of no further force or effect. 
 (b) Partial Releases. If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then immediately upon the
occurrence of any such disposition, all Liens and other rights with respect thereto, shall automatically terminate and be null and void, and the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall promptly execute and
deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents deemed reasonably necessary or desirable by the Borrower to evidence the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. If all the Equity Interests of a Guarantor shall be sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then immediately upon the occurrence of such disposition, such Guarantor automatically shall be released from its obligations hereunder, and the Liens and other
rights created hereunder in all property of such Guarantor shall automatically terminate and be null and void; and at the request and sole expense of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to or at the request of
the Borrower all releases and other documents reasonable necessary or desirable to release such obligations, Liens and other rights; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least fifteen Business Days prior to
the date of the requested releases and documents, a written request of a Responsible Officer for release identifying the relevant Guarantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price thereof and any
expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(c) Retention in Satisfaction. Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9.620 of the UCC, no
action taken or omission to act by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder, including, without limitation, any exercise of voting or consensual rights or any other action taken or inaction, shall be deemed to constitute a retention
of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall have applied
payments (including, without limitation, collections from Collateral) towards the Obligations in the full amount then outstanding or until such subsequent time as is provided in Section 9.14(a). 

Section 9.15 Acceptance. Each Grantor hereby expressly waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement, acceptance on the part
of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties being conclusively presumed by their request for this Agreement and delivery of the same to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 9.16 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement and the security interests and other Liens granted to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, hereunder and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or
