Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Holder any right to continue in Employment, or shall interfere with or restrict
in any way the rights of the Company and its Affiliates, which are hereby expressly reserved, to terminate the Employment of the Holder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause, subject to the applicable provisions, if any, of
the Holder’s Employment agreement (if any such agreement is in effect at the time of such termination). Neither the Holder nor any other Person shall have any claim to be granted any additional Stock Awards and there is no obligation under the
Plan for uniformity of treatment of Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Stock Awards. The terms and conditions of the Award granted hereunder or any other Stock Award granted under the Plan or otherwise and the Committee’s

Section 5.7. Withholding Obligations 

(a) On the Grant Date, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Holder hereby authorizes the Company or the Subsidiary
employing the Holder to satisfy its withholding obligations, if any, from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Holder, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax
withholding obligations of the Company or such employing Subsidiary, if any, which arise in connection with the grant of or vesting of the Award or the delivery of Shares under the Award; provided, that, at the Holder’s election, such
withholding obligation may be satisfied by the Company withholding from the Shares otherwise issuable to the Holder that 

  
 5 








 
number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the withholding tax obligation arises, equal to such withholding tax obligation (but in no event more than the
minimum required tax withholding); provided, further, that, the Holder’s right to elect such Share withholding shall be subject to Section 4.6(b) of the Management Stockholders Agreement, and any limitations imposed under
Delaware law or other Applicable Law and/or under the terms of any preferred stock, debt financing arrangements or other indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries (including any such limitations resulting from the Company’s Subsidiaries
being prohibited or prevented from distributing to the Company sufficient proceeds or funds to enable the Company to repurchase Common Stock in accordance with Delaware law or other Applicable Law and/or the then applicable terms and conditions of
such arrangements). 
 (b) Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company, if any, are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation
to issue a certificate for such Shares or release such Shares. 
 Section 5.8. Securities Laws. 

The Holder represents, warrants and covenants that:

the Shares in violation of the Securities Act or in violation of any applicable state securities law; 
 (b) The Holder has had such
opportunity as he or she has deemed adequate to obtain from representatives of the Company such information as is necessary to permit the Holder to evaluate the merits and risks of his or her investment in the Company; 

(c) The Holder has sufficient experience in business, financial and investment matters to be able to evaluate the risks involved in acquiring
the Shares and to make an informed investment decision with respect to such investment; 
 (d) The Holder can afford the complete loss of the
value of the Shares and is able to bear the economic risk of holding such Shares for an indefinite period; 
 (e) The Holder understands that
(i) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (ii) the Shares cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless
they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is then available; and (iii) there is now no registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the Shares and
there is no commitment on the part of the Company to make any such filing; and 
 (f) Upon the issuance of any Shares hereunder, the Holder
will make or enter into such other written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with this Agreement.

 Section 5.9. Nature of Grant. 

In accepting the grant, the Holder acknowledges that, regardless of any action the Company or its Affiliates takes with respect to any or all
income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Holder acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Holder is and
remains the Holder’s responsibility, and the Holder shall pay to, and indemnify and keep indemnified, the Company and its Affiliates from and against Tax-Related Items legally due by the Holder that are attributable to the vesting of, or any
benefit derived by the Holder from, the Award and that the Company and its Affiliates (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Agreement, including the
grant, vesting or settlement of this Award, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement or the receipt of any dividends with respect to such Shares; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect
of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Holder’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code and shall at all times be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with this intent. Notwithstanding the forgoing or any other term or provision of this Agreement or the Plan, neither the
Company nor any Affiliate nor any of its or their officers, directors, employees, agents or other service providers shall have any liability to any person for any taxes, penalties or interest due on any amounts paid or payable hereunder, including
any taxes, penalties or interest imposed under Section 409A of the Code.
