 ARTICLE II 

Registration Rights 

Section 2.01 Registration. (a) Prior to the third anniversary of the Donnelley Financial Distribution Date, any Holder(s) of
10% or more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (and any Holders acting together which collectively hold 10% or more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities) (collectively, the “Initiating Holder”; provided
that the 10% ownership threshold shall not apply to any Holder that is a member of the RRD Group) shall have the right to request that Donnelley Financial file a Registration Statement, on behalf of itself or, in the case of RRD, on behalf of the
Participating Banks, with the SEC on the appropriate registration form for all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holder, by delivering a written request thereof to Donnelley Financial specifying the number of shares of
Registrable Securities such Initiating Holder wishes to register (a “Demand Registration”). Donnelley Financial shall (i) within ten days of the receipt of a Demand Registration, give written notice of such Demand Registration
to all Holders of Registrable Securities, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file the Registration Statement as expeditiously as possible but in any event within 45 days of such request, and (iii) use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective in respect of each Demand Registration in accordance with the intended method of distribution set forth in the written request delivered by the Initiating Holder. Donnelley
Financial shall include in such Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which Donnelley Financial receives, within the 10 days immediately following the receipt by the Holder(s) of such notice from Donnelley Financial, a request for
inclusion in the Registration from the Holder(s) thereof. Each such request from a Holder of Registrable Securities for inclusion in the Registration shall also specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be Registered and
include the selling security holder information required by Items 507 and 508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable. The Initiating Holder may request that the Registration Statement be on any appropriate form, including Form S-4 in the case of an
Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration Statement, and Donnelley Financial shall effect the Registration on the form so requested. 
 (b) The
Holder(s) may collectively make a total of three Demand Registration requests pursuant to Section 2.01(a) (including any exercise of rights to Demand Registration transferred pursuant to Section 4.06; provided that the
Holder(s) may not make more than one Demand Registration request in any six (6)-month period. Donnelley Financial shall not be required to register the Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Demand Registration unless a Holder has
requested to include in such Demand Registration either (i) together with all other Holders participating in the Demand Registration, Registrable Securities having an aggregate principal amount of at least $50 million or (ii) all of the
Registrable Securities then held by such requesting Holder. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, RRD shall be permitted to engage in up to four Private Exchanges during the first twelve months following the date hereof, and all
Demand Registration requests made by the Participating Banks in such Private Exchanges shall collectively count only as one Demand Registration request (with such request date deemed to be the date of the first of the requests made pursuant to the
applicable Private Exchanges) for purposes of the limitation on the number of Demand Registration requests set forth in the first sentence of this Section 2.01(b) (it being understood that RRD shall be permitted to engage in additional
Private Exchanges outside 

  
 -8- 








 
such twelve-month period, but each Demand Registration request by the Participating Banks for such Private Exchange shall count as an additional Demand Registration request for purposes of the
limitation on the number of Demand Registration requests set forth in the first sentence of this Section 2.01(b)). 
 (c)
Donnelley Financial shall be deemed to have effected a Registration for purposes of this Section 2.01 if the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC or becomes effective upon filing with the SEC and remains effective
until the earlier of (i) the date when all Registrable Securities thereunder have been Sold and (ii) 60 days from the effective date of the Registration Statement (or from the date the applicable Prospectus is filed with the SEC if
Donnelley Financial is satisfying a request for a Demand Registration by filing a Prospectus under an effective Shelf Registration Statement) (the “Registration Period”). No Registration shall be deemed to have been effective if the
conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable
underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement by any member of the Donnelley Financial Group. If during the Registration Period, such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or
other Governmental Authority or the need to update or supplement the Registration Statement, the Registration Period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for any period in which the Holder(s) is unable to complete an offering as a result of such
stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Authority. 
 (d) With respect to any Registration
Statement, whether filed or to be filed pursuant to this Agreement, if Donnelley Financial shall reasonably determine, upon the advice of legal counsel, that maintaining the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or filing an amendment or
supplement thereto (or, if no Registration Statement has yet been filed, filing such a Registration Statement) would require the public disclosure of material nonpublic information concerning any bona fide material financing transaction or any
material transaction under consideration by the Donnelley Financial Group that would materially adversely affect the Donnelley Financial Group or materially interfere with such transaction (a “Disadvantageous Condition”), Donnelley
Financial may, for the shortest period reasonably practicable, and in any event for not more than 30 consecutive calendar days (a “Blackout Period”), notify the Holders whose offers and Sales of Registrable Securities are covered
(or to be covered) by such Registration Statement (a “Blackout Notice”) that such Registration Statement is unavailable for use (or will not be filed as requested). Upon the receipt of any such Blackout Notice, the Holders shall
forthwith discontinue use of the Prospectus contained in any effective Registration Statement; provided, that, if at the time of receipt of such Blackout Notice any Holder shall have Sold its Registrable Securities (or have signed a firm
commitment underwriting agreement with respect to the purchase of such shares) and the Disadvantageous Condition is not of a nature that would require a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, then Donnelley Financial shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to take such action as to eliminate any restriction imposed by federal securities laws on the timely delivery of such Registrable Securities. When any Disadvantageous Condition as to which a Blackout Notice has been
previously delivered shall cease to exist, Donnelley Financial shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the Holders and take such actions in respect of such Registration Statement as are otherwise required by this Agreement. The
effectiveness period for any Demand Registration 

  
 -9- 








 
for which Donnelley Financial has given notice of a Blackout Period shall be increased by the length of time of such Blackout Period. Donnelley Financial shall not impose, in any 180-day period,
Blackout Periods lasting, in the aggregate, in excess of 60 calendar days. If Donnelley Financial declares a Blackout Period with respect to a Demand Registration for a Registration Statement that has not yet been declared effective, (i) the
Holders may by notice to Donnelley Financial withdraw the related Demand Registration request without such Demand Registration request counting against the number of Demand Registration requests permitted to be made under Section 2.01(b)
and (ii) the Holders shall not be responsible for any of Donnelley Financial’s related Registration Expenses. 
 (e) If the
Initiating Holder so indicates at the time of its request pursuant to Section 2.01(a), such offering of Registrable Securities shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering or an Exchange Offer, and Donnelley Financial shall indicate
this selection in the written notice to the Holders required under Section 2.01(a). In the event that the Initiating Holder intends to Sell the Registrable Securities by means of an Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer, the right of
any Holder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the
Underwritten Offering or the Exchange Offer to the extent provided herein. The Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities being included in any Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer shall select the underwriter(s) in the case
of an Underwritten Offering or the dealer manager(s) in the case of an Exchange Offer, provided that such underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) are reasonably acceptable to Donnelley Financial. Donnelley Financial shall be entitled to designate
counsel for such underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) (subject to their approval), provided that such designated underwriters’ counsel shall be a firm of national reputation representing underwriters or dealer managers in capital markets
transactions. 
 (f) If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities included in a
Registration pursuant to this Section 2.01 inform(s) in writing the Holders participating in such Registration that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Registration exceeds the number that
can be Sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in
such Registration shall be reduced to the maximum number recommended by the managing underwriter or underwriters and allocated pro rata among the Holders, including the Initiating Holder, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities each
Holder has requested to be included in such Registration; provided, that in such circumstance the Initiating Holder may notify Donnelley Financial in writing that the Registration Statement shall be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event
Donnelley Financial shall abandon or withdraw such Registration Statement. In the event the Initiating Holder notifies Donnelley Financial that such Registration Statement shall be abandoned or withdrawn following such notification by the managing
underwriter or underwriters, such Holder shall not be deemed to have requested a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a), and Donnelley Financial shall not be deemed to have effected a Demand Registration pursuant to
Section 2.01(b). If the amount of Registrable Securities to be underwritten has not been limited in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.01(f), Donnelley Financial and the holders of Common Stock or, if the
Registrable Securities include securities other than Common Stock, the 

  
 -10- 








 
holders of securities of the same class of those securities included in the Registrable Securities, in each case, other than the Holders (“Other Holders”), may include such
securities for Donnelley Financial’s own account or for the account of Other Holders in such Registration if the underwriter(s) so agree and to the extent that, in the opinion of such underwriter(s), the inclusion of such additional amount will
not adversely affect the offering of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration. 
 Section 2.02 Piggyback
Registrations. (a) Prior to the earlier to occur of the third anniversary of the Donnelley Financial Distribution Date or the date on which the Registrable Securities then held by the Holder(s) represents less than 1% of Donnelley
Financial’s then-issued and outstanding Common Stock (or, if the Registrable Securities include securities other than Common Stock, less than 1% of Donnelley Financial’s then-issued and outstanding securities of the same class as the
securities included in the Registrable Securities), if Donnelley Financial proposes to file a Registration Statement (other than a Shelf Registration) or a Prospectus supplement filed pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities
Act with respect to any offering of such securities for its own account and/or for the account of any Other Holders (other than (i) a Registration under Section 2.01, (ii) a Registration pursuant to a Registration Statement on
Form S-8 or Form S-4 or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, (iii) any form that does not include substantially the same information, other than information relating to the selling holders or
their plan of distribution, as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, (iv) in connection with any dividend reinvestment or similar plan, (v) for the sole purpose of
offering securities to another entity or its security holders in connection with the acquisition of assets or securities of such entity or any similar transaction or (vi) a Registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered) (a “Donnelley Financial Public Sale”), then, as soon as practicable, but in any event not less than 15 days prior to the proposed date of filing such
Registration Statement, Donnelley Financial shall give written notice of such proposed filing to each Holder, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to Register under such Registration Statement such number of Registrable
Securities as each such Holder may request in writing (a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 2.02(b) and Section 2.02(c), if a Holder delivers a request for a Piggyback Registration in writing
within five Business Days after the receipt of notice of any such Donnelley Financial Public Sale, Donnelley Financial shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in a Registration Statement with respect to a Donnelley Financial Public
Sale all Registrable Securities that are requested to be included therein; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to Register any securities and prior to the effective date of the
Registration Statement filed in connection with such Registration, Donnelley Financial shall determine for any reason not to Register or to delay Registration of the Donnelley Financial Public Sale, Donnelley Financial may, at its election, give
written notice of such determination to each such Holder and, thereupon, (x) in the case of a determination not to Register, shall be relieved of its obligation to Register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration,
without prejudice, however, to the rights of any Holder to request that such Registration be effected as a Demand Registration under Section 2.01 and (y) in the case of a determination to delay Registration, shall be permitted to
delay Registering any Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in Registering such other shares of Common Stock in the Donnelley Financial Public Sale. No Registration effected under this Section 2.02 shall relieve
Donnelley Financial of its obligation to 

  
 -11- 








 
effect any Demand Registration under Section 2.01. For purposes of clarification, Donnelley Financial’s filing of a Shelf Registration Statement shall not be deemed to be a
Donnelley Financial Public Sale; provided, however, that any prospectus supplement filed pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to an offering of Donnelley Financial’s Common Stock for its own account and/or for the
account of any other Persons will be a Donnelley Financial Public Sale unless such offering qualifies for an exemption from the Donnelley Financial Public Sale definition in this Section 2.02(a). 

(b) In the case of any Underwritten Offering, each Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of its
Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02(a) at any time prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement with respect thereto by giving written notice to Donnelley Financial of such Holder’s
request to withdraw and, subject to the preceding clause, each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities from a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effective date thereof. 

(c) If the managing underwriter or underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of a class of Registrable Securities included in a
Piggyback Registration informs Donnelley Financial and each Holder in writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities of such class that such Holder and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number that can
be Sold in such offering without being likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities to be included in such Registration shall be
(i) first, all securities of Donnelley Financial and any other Persons (other than Donnelley Financial’s executive officers and directors) for whom Donnelley Financial is effecting the Registration, as the case may be, proposes to Sell,
(ii) second, the number, if any, of Registrable Securities of such class that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be Sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the
Holders that have requested to participate in such Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities of such class requested by such Holder to be included in such Sale, (iii) third, the number of securities of executive
officers and directors of Donnelley Financial for whom Donnelley Financial is effecting the Registration, as the case may be, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the executive officers and directors and (iv) fourth, any other
securities eligible for inclusion in such Registration, allocated among the holders of such securities in such proportion as Donnelley Financial and those holders may agree. 

(d) After a Holder has been notified of its opportunity to include Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration, such Holder
(i) shall treat the Offering Confidential Information as confidential information, (ii) shall not use any Offering Confidential Information for any purpose other than to evaluate whether to include its Registrable Securities (or other
shares of Common Stock) in such Piggyback Registration and (iii) shall not disclose any Offering Confidential Information to any Person other than such of its agents, employees, advisors and counsel as have a need to know such Offering
Confidential Information, and to cause such agents, employees, advisors and counsel to comply with the requirements of this Section 2.02(d); provided, that any such Holder may disclose Offering Confidential Information if such
disclosure is required by legal process, but such Holder shall cooperate with Donnelley Financial to limit the extent of such disclosure through protective order or otherwise, and to seek confidential treatment of the Offering Confidential
Information.

 Section 2.03 Registration Procedures. (a) In connection with Donnelley
Financial’s Registration obligations under Section 2.01 and Section 2.02, Donnelley Financial shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration to permit the offer and Sale of such Registrable

SEC a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, (A) furnish to the underwriters or dealer managers, if any, and to the Holders, copies of all documents prepared to be filed, which documents shall be subject

review and comment thereon and (B) not file with the SEC any Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto or any Ancillary Filing to which the Holders or the underwriters or dealer managers, if any, shall reasonably
object;

and supplements to the Prospectus and any Ancillary Filing as may be reasonably requested by the participating Holders; 

(iii) promptly notify the participating Holders and the managing underwriters or dealer managers, if any, and, if requested,
confirm such advice in writing and provide copies of the relevant documents, as soon as reasonably practicable after notice thereof is received by any member of the Donnelley Financial Group (A) when the applicable Registration Statement or any
amendment thereto has been filed or becomes effective, the applicable Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Prospectus has been filed, or any Ancillary Filing has been filed, (B) of any comments (written or oral) by the SEC or any
request (written or oral) by the SEC or any other Governmental Authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement, such Prospectus or any Ancillary Filing, or for any additional information, (C) of the issuance by the SEC of
any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary or final Prospectus or any Ancillary Filing, or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for such
purposes, (D) if, at any time, the representations and warranties (written or oral) in any applicable underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement cease to be true and correct in all material respects and (E) of the receipt by any
member of the Donnelley Financial Group of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or Sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such
purpose; 

  
 -13- 








 (iv) (A) promptly notify each participating Holder and the managing
underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, when Donnelley Financial becomes aware of the occurrence of any event as a result of which the applicable Registration Statement, the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (as then in effect)
or any Ancillary Filing contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of such Prospectus and any preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made) not misleading, or if for any other reason it shall be necessary during such time period to amend or supplement such Registration Statement, Prospectus or any Ancillary Filing in order to comply with the Securities Act, and
(B) in either case, as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the SEC, and furnish without charge to each participating Holder and the underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, an amendment or supplement to such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or Ancillary Filing that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; 

(v) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent or obtain the withdrawal of any stop order or other order suspending the use
of any preliminary or final Prospectus; 
 (vi) promptly (A) incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment such information as the managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, and the Holders agree should be included therein relating to the plan of distribution with respect to such Registrable Securities and (B) make all required
filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; 

(vii) furnish to each participating Holder and each underwriter or dealer manager, if any, without charge, as many conformed
copies as such Holder or underwriter or dealer manager may reasonably request of the applicable Registration Statement and any amendment or post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, but excluding all documents
and exhibits (i) incorporated therein by reference or (ii) that are available via the SEC’s EDGAR system; 

(viii) deliver to each participating Holder and each underwriter or dealer manager, if any, without charge, as many copies of
the applicable Prospectus (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder or underwriter or dealer manager may reasonably request (it being understood that Donnelley Financial consents to the use of
such Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each participating Holder and the underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, in connection with the offering and Sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto) and such other documents as such participating Holder or underwriter or dealer manager may reasonably request in order to facilitate the Sale of the Registrable Securities by such Holder or underwriter or dealer
manager; 
 (ix) on or prior to the date on which the applicable Registration Statement is declared effective or becomes
effective, use its commercially reasonable efforts to 

  
 -14- 








 
register or qualify, and cooperate with each participating Holder, the managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, and their respective counsel, in connection with the registration or
qualification of, such Registrable Securities for offer and Sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of each state and other jurisdiction of the United States as any participating Holder or managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s),
if any, or their respective counsel reasonably request, and in any foreign jurisdiction mutually agreeable to Donnelley Financial and the participating Holders, and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to keep such
registration or qualification in effect for so long as such Registration Statement remains in effect and so as to permit the continuance of offers and Sales and dealings in such jurisdictions for so long as may be necessary to complete the
distribution of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided that Donnelley Financial will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, to take any action
which would subject it to taxation or general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or conform its capitalization or the composition of its assets at the time to the securities or blue sky laws of any such
jurisdiction; 
 (x) in connection with any Sale of Registrable Securities that will result in such securities no longer
being Registrable Securities, cooperate with each participating Holder and the managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, to (A) facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of book entry statements or certificates representing
Registrable Securities to be Sold and not bearing any restrictive Securities Act legends and (B) register such Registrable Securities in such denominations and such names as such participating Holder or the underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s),
if any, may request at least two Business Days prior to such Sale of Registrable Securities; provided that Donnelley Financial may satisfy its obligations hereunder without issuing physical stock certificates through the use of the Depository Trust
Company’s Direct Registration System; 
 (xi) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority and each securities exchange, if any, on which any of Donnelley Financial’s securities are then listed or quoted and on each inter-dealer quotation system on which any of Donnelley Financial’s securities are
then quoted, and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter or dealer manager (including any “qualified independent underwriter”) that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of
each such exchange, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary to enable
the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, to consummate the Sale of such Registrable Securities; 

(xii) not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable
Securities and provide the applicable transfer agent with printed certificates for the Registrable Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company; provided, that Donnelley Financial may satisfy its obligations
hereunder without issuing physical stock certificates through the use of the Depository Trust Company’s Direct Registration System; 

  
 -15- 








 (xiii) obtain for delivery to and addressed to the underwriter(s) or dealer
manager(s), if any, opinions of external counsel for Donnelley Financial, in each case dated the effective date of the Registration Statement or, in the event of an Underwritten Offering, the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement or,
in the event of an Exchange Offer, the date of the closing under the dealer manager agreement or similar agreement or otherwise, and in each such case in customary form and content for the type of Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer, as
applicable; 
 (xiv) in the case of an Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer, obtain for delivery to and addressed to
Donnelley Financial and the managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, and, to the extent requested, each participating Holder, a comfort letter from Donnelley Financial’s independent registered public accounting firm in customary
form and content for the type of Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer, dated the date of execution of the underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement or, if none, the date of commencement of the Exchange Offer, and brought down to the
closing, whether under the underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement, if applicable, or otherwise; 
 (xv) in the
case of an Exchange Offer that does not involve a dealer manager, provide to each participating Holder such customary written representations and warranties or other covenants or agreements as may be requested by any participating Holder comparable
to those that would be included in an underwriting or dealer manager agreement; 
 (xvi) use commercially reasonable efforts
to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make generally available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 90 days, after the end of the 12-month period beginning with the
first day of Donnelley Financial’s first quarter commencing after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and covering the period
of at least 12 months, but not more than 18 months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement; 

(xvii) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by the
applicable Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

exchange on which such Registrable Securities are then listed or quoted and on each inter-dealer quotation system on which any of Donnelley Financial’s securities are then quoted; 

(xix) provide (A) each Holder participating in the Registration, (B) the underwriters (which term, for purposes of
this Agreement, shall include any Person 

  
 -16- 








 
deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act), if any, of the Registrable Securities to be registered, (C) the Sale or placement agent therefor,
if any, (D) the dealer manager therefor, if any, (E) counsel for such Holder, underwriters, agent, or dealer manager and (F) any attorney, accountant or other agent or representative retained by such Holder or any such underwriter or
dealer manager, as selected by such Holder, in each case, the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement, each Prospectus included therein or filed with the SEC, and each amendment or supplement thereto; and for a
reasonable period prior to the filing of such Registration Statement, upon execution of a customary confidentiality agreement, make available for inspection upon reasonable notice at reasonable times and for reasonable periods, by the parties
referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate and other documents and properties of the Donnelley Financial Group that are available to Donnelley Financial, and cause all of
the Donnelley Financial Group’s officers, directors and employees and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements to supply all information available to Donnelley Financial reasonably requested by any such
Person in connection with such Registration Statement as shall be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence or other responsibility, subject to the foregoing; provided, that in no event shall any member of the Donnelley
Financial Group be required to make available any information which the Donnelley Financial Group determines in good faith to be competitively sensitive with respect to such recipient. 

The recipients of such information shall coordinate with one another so that the inspection permitted hereunder will not
unnecessarily interfere with the Donnelley Financial Group’s conduct of business. Each Holder agrees that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and acknowledges that it shall have an obligation
not to, and agrees that it shall not, use such confidential information as the basis for any market transactions in the securities of Donnelley Financial or its Affiliates unless and until such information is made generally available to the public
by Donnelley Financial or such Affiliate or for any reason not related to the Registration of Registrable Securities; 
 (xx)
in the case of an Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer registering 25% or more of the Retained Shares, cause the senior executive officers of Donnelley Financial to participate at reasonable times and for reasonable periods in the customary
“road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), if any, and otherwise to facilitate, cooperate with, and participate in each proposed offering contemplated herein and
customary selling efforts related thereto, except to the extent that such participation materially interferes with the management of Donnelley Financial’s business; provided that the effectiveness period for any Demand Registration shall be
increased on a day-for-day basis by the period of time that management cannot participate; 
 (xxi) comply with all
requirements of the Securities Act, Exchange Act and other applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as all applicable stock exchange rules; and 

  
 -17- 








 (xxii) take all other customary steps reasonably necessary or advisable to effect
the Registration and distribution of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby. 
 (b) As a condition precedent to any Registration
hereunder, Donnelley Financial may require each Holder as to which any Registration is being effected to furnish to Donnelley Financial such information regarding the distribution of such securities and such other information relating to such
Holder, its ownership of Registrable Securities and other matters as Donnelley Financial may from time to time reasonably request in writing. Each such Holder agrees to furnish such information to Donnelley Financial and to cooperate with Donnelley
Financial as reasonably necessary to enable Donnelley Financial to comply with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (c) Each Holder shall,
as promptly as reasonably practicable, notify Donnelley Financial, at any time when a Prospectus is required to be delivered (or deemed delivered) under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event, of which such Holder has knowledge, relating
to such Holder or its Sale of Registrable Securities thereunder requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered (or deemed delivered) to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such
Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

 (d) RRD agrees, and any other Holder agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Securities, that, upon receipt of any written notice from
Donnelley Financial of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 2.03(a)(iv) such Holder will forthwith discontinue Sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement until such Holder’s
receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 2.03(a)(iv), or until such Holder is advised in writing by Donnelley Financial that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and if so directed by
Donnelley Financial, such Holder will deliver to Donnelley Financial, at Donnelley Financial’s expense, all copies of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event Donnelley
Financial shall give any such notice, the period during which the applicable Registration Statement is required to be maintained effective shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such
notice through the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement either receives the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 2.03(a)(iv) or is advised in writing
by Donnelley Financial that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. 
 Section 2.04 Underwritten Offerings or Exchange Offers.
(a) If requested by the managing underwriter(s) for any Underwritten Offering or dealer manager(s) for any Exchange Offer that is requested by Holders pursuant to a Demand Registration under Section 2.01, Donnelley Financial shall
enter into an underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement, as applicable, with such underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) for such offering, such agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to Donnelley Financial and the
underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) and, if RRD is a participating Holder, to RRD. Such agreement shall contain such representations and warranties by Donnelley Financial and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type.
Each Holder with Registrable Securities to be included in 

  
 -18- 








 
any Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer by such underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s) shall enter into such underwriting agreement or dealer manager agreement at the request of Donnelley
Financial, which agreement shall contain such reasonable representations and warranties by the Holder and such other reasonable terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type. 

(b) In the event of a Donnelley Financial Public Sale involving an offering of Common Stock or other equity securities of Donnelley Financial
in an Underwritten Offering (whether in a Demand Registration or a Piggyback Registration, whether or not the Holders participate therein), the Holders hereby agree, and, in the event of a Donnelley Financial Public Sale of Common Stock or other
equity securities of Donnelley Financial in an Underwritten Offering or an Exchange Offer, Donnelley Financial shall agree, and it shall cause its executive officers and directors to agree, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in
such Underwritten Offering or by the Holder or the dealer manager or dealer managers, in an Exchange Offer, not to effect any Sale or distribution (including any offer to Sell, contract to Sell, short Sale or any option to purchase) of any
securities (except, in each case, as part of the applicable Registration, if permitted hereunder) that are of the same type as those being Registered in connection with such public offering and Sale, or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period beginning five days before, and ending 90 days (or such lesser period as may be permitted by Donnelley Financial or the participating Holder(s), as applicable, or such managing
underwriter or underwriters) after, the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such Registration (or, if later, the date of the Prospectus), to the extent timely notified in writing by such selling Person or the
managing underwriter or underwriters or dealer manager or dealer managers. The participating Holders and Donnelley Financial, as applicable, also agree to execute an agreement evidencing the restrictions in this Section 2.04(b) in
customary form and with customary exceptions (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall permit any Sale pursuant to a plan that is in effect prior to such time and that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act), which form is reasonably
satisfactory to Donnelley Financial or the participating Holder(s), as applicable, and the underwriter(s) or dealer manager(s), as applicable; provided that such restrictions may be included in the underwriting agreement or dealer manager
agreement, if applicable. Donnelley Financial may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the required stand-off period. 

(c) No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Offering or Exchange Offer hereunder unless such Holder (i) agrees to Sell such
Holder’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements or dealer manager agreements approved by Donnelley Financial or other Persons entitled to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, dealer manager agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements or dealer manager agreements or this Agreement. 

Section 2.05 Registration Expenses Paid by Donnelley Financial. In the case of any Registration of Registrable Securities required
pursuant to this Agreement, Donnelley Financial shall pay all Registration Expenses regardless of whether the Registration Statement becomes effective; provided, however, that Donnelley Financial shall not be required to pay for any
expenses of any Registration begun pursuant to Section 2.01 if the Demand Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable 

  
 -19- 








 
Securities to be Registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one
Demand Registration to which they have the right pursuant to Section 2.01(b). 
 Section 2.06 Indemnification.
(a) Donnelley Financial agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder whose shares are included in a Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act) such Holder, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified party is a party thereto) and expenses, joint or several
(including reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses) (each, a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in any Registration Statement under which the offering and Sale of such Registrable Securities was Registered under the Securities Act (including any final or preliminary Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or
any documents incorporated by reference therein), or any such statement made in any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that Donnelley Financial has filed or is required to file pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the
Securities Act or any Ancillary Filing, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus or
free writing prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, that with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any Prospectus, the indemnity
agreement contained in this paragraph shall not apply to the extent that any such liability or Loss results from or arises out of (A) the fact that a current copy of the Prospectus was not sent or given to the Person asserting any such
liability at or prior to the written confirmation of the Sale of the Registrable Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment that Donnelley Financial has
provided such Prospectus and it was the responsibility of such Holder or its agents to provide such Person with a current copy of the Prospectus and such current copy of the Prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to such liability,
(B) the use of any Prospectus by or on behalf of any Holder after Donnelley Financial has notified such Person (x) that such Prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (y) that a stop order has been issued by the SEC with respect to a Registration Statement or (z) that a
Disadvantageous Condition exists, or (C) information furnished in writing by such Holder or on such Holder’s behalf, in either case expressly for use in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, free writing prospectus or Ancillary Filing
relating to such Holder’s Registrable Securities. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability Donnelley Financial may otherwise have, including under the Separation and Distribution Agreement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force
and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the Sale of such securities by such Holder. 

(b) Each participating Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement agrees (severally and not jointly) to
indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, Donnelley Financial, its directors, officers, agents, advisors, employees and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act and


  
 -20- 








 
the Exchange Act) Donnelley Financial from and against any and all Losses (i) arising out of or based upon information furnished in writing by such Holder or on such Holder’s behalf, in
either case expressly for use in a Registration Statement, Prospectus, free writing prospectus or Ancillary Filing relating to such Holder’s Registrable Securities or (ii) resulting from (A) the fact that a current copy of the
Prospectus was not sent or given to the Person asserting any such liability at or prior to the written confirmation of the Sale of the Registrable Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final and non-appealable judgment that it was the responsibility of such Holder or its agent to provide such Person with a current copy of the Prospectus and such current copy of the Prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to such
liability, or (B) the use of any Prospectus by or on behalf of any Holder after Donnelley Financial has notified such Person (x) that such Prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (y) that a stop order has been issued by the SEC with respect to a Registration Statement
or (z) that a Disadvantageous Condition exists. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the participating Holder may otherwise have, including under the Separation and Distribution Agreement. In no event shall the liability of any
participating Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such holder under the Sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Donnelley Financial or any indemnified party. 
 (c) If for any
reason the indemnification provided for in Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.06(b) is unavailable to any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) or insufficient to hold it harmless as
contemplated by Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.06(b), then any party which may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee (an “Indemnifying Party”) shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
by the Indemnitee as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnitee on the other hand. 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 the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. For the avoidance of doubt, the establishment of such relative fault, and any disagreements or disputes relating thereto,
shall be subject to Section 4.03. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.06(c) to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party (other than Donnelley Financial) shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) to
contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Indemnifying Party from the Sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to which the Losses of the Indemnitees relate (before deducting expenses, if any)
exceeds the amount of any damages which such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 2.06(c) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.06(c). 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. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnitee hereunder shall
be deemed to 

  
 -21- 








 
include, for purposes of this Section 2.06(c), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending
against or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. If indemnification is available under this
Section 2.06, the Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify each Indemnitee to the full extent provided in Section 2.06(a) and Section 2.06(b) without regard to the relative fault of said Indemnifying Parties or
Indemnitee. Any Holders’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) are several and not joint. 

Section 2.07 Reporting Requirements; Rule 144. Until the earlier of (a) the expiration or termination of this Agreement in
accordance with its terms and (b) the date upon which RRD ceases to own any Registrable Securities, Donnelley Financial shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to be and remain in compliance with the periodic filing requirements imposed
under the SEC’s rules and regulations, including the Exchange Act, and any other applicable laws or rules, and thereafter shall timely file such information, documents and reports as the SEC may require or prescribe under Sections 13, 14 and
15(d), as applicable, of the Exchange Act so that Donnelley Financial will qualify for registration on Form S-3 at such time as it may be first eligible (it being understood that as of the date hereof, Donnelley Financial is not eligible to register
securities on Form S-3) and to enable RRD to Sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act consistent with the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act provided by (i) Rule 144 or Regulation S under the
Securities Act, as amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar SEC rule or regulation then in effect. From and after the date hereof through the earlier of the expiration or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and the
date upon which RRD ceases to own any Registrable Securities, Donnelley Financial shall forthwith upon request furnish any Holder (x) a written statement by Donnelley Financial as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not,
the specifics thereof, (y) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Donnelley Financial and (z) such other reports and documents filed by Donnelley Financial with the SEC as such Holder may reasonably request in availing
itself of an exemption for the offering and Sale of Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act.
