 TO EACH OF

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 H. B. FULLER COMPANY, a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively,
the “Purchasers”) as follows: 
 SECTION 1. AUTHORIZATION OF

its 5.61% Senior Notes, Series D, due February 24, 2020 (the “Series D Notes”; the Series A Notes, the Series B Notes, the Series C Notes and the Series D Notes being hereinafter collectively referred as the
“Notes”, such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). The Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1-A, 1-B, 1-C or 1-D,
as the case may be. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; and references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit
attached to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2. SALE AND PURCHASE OF
NOTES. 
 Section 2.1. Purchase and Sale of Notes. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each Purchaser and each Purchaser will purchase from the Company, at a Closing provided for in Section 3, Notes in the principal amount and the series specified opposite such Purchaser’s
name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the
performance or non-performance of any obligation by any other Purchaser hereunder. 







 Section 2.2. Subsidiary Guaranty. (a) The payment by the Company of all
amounts due with respect to the Notes and the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement will be absolutely and unconditionally guaranteed by SPECIALTY CONSTRUCTION BRANDS,
INC., a Minnesota corporation (together with any additional Subsidiary who delivers a guaranty pursuant to Section 9.8, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), pursuant to the guaranty agreement substantially in the
form of Exhibit 2.2 attached hereto and made a part hereof (as the same may be amended, modified, extended or renewed, the “Subsidiary Guaranty”). 
 (b) The holders of the Notes acknowledge and agree that such holders will promptly discharge and release any Subsidiary Guarantor from the
Subsidiary Guaranty to which it is a party pursuant to the written request of the Company, provided that (i) such Subsidiary Guarantor has been released and discharged as an obligor and guarantor under and in respect of all Indebtedness
of the Company due and owing pursuant to the Bank Credit Agreement, and the Company so certifies to the holders of the Notes in a certificate which accompanies such request for release and discharge, (ii) any such release and discharge shall be
expressly conditioned upon receipt by the holders of the Notes of a written agreement executed by the Subsidiary Guarantor to be released pursuant to which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall agree that if, for any reason whatsoever, it thereafter
becomes an obligor or guarantor under and in respect of any Indebtedness of the Company due and owing pursuant to the Bank Credit Agreement, then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall contemporaneously provide written notice thereof to the holders of the
Notes accompanied by an executed Subsidiary Guaranty of such Subsidiary Guarantor and (iii) at the time of such release and discharge, the Company shall deliver a certificate of a Responsible Officer to the holders of the Notes to the effect
that no Default or Event of Default exists. 
 SECTION 3. CLOSING. 
 The sale and purchase of the Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall occur at the offices of Chapman and Cutler LLP, 111 West Monroe
Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, at 10:00 A.M. Chicago time, at not more than two closings (individually, a “Closing” and, collectively, the “Closings”). The first Closing shall be
in respect of the Series A and Series C Notes and shall be held on December 16, 2009 and the second Closing shall be in respect of the Series B and Series D Notes and shall be held on February 24, 2010 or such other
Business Day thereafter on or prior to February 26, 2010, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Purchasers. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes of the series to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form
of a single Note for each series of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser (or such greater number of Notes in denominations of at least $100,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of such Closing and registered in such
Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the
account of the Company to, account number: 5785510, at JPMorgan Chase N.A., New York, ABA No.: 021000021. If at a Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of
the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any
rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

 Section 5.1. Organization; Power and Authority. The Company is a corporation duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those
jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own or hold
under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof. 
 Section 5.2. Authorization, Etc. This Agreement and the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the
part of the Company, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 Section 5.3. Disclosure. The
Company, through its agent, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated October, 2009 (the “Memorandum”, which defined term includes the information that is
incorporated therein by reference), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Memorandum fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This
Agreement, the Memorandum and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of 
  

 -5- 








 the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in
Schedule 5.3, and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5, (this Agreement, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser prior to
November 13, 2009 being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.3, since November 29, 2008, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or
prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents. 
 Section 5.4. Organization
and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates. (a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (i) of the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name
thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary, (ii) of the Company’s Affiliates, other
than Subsidiaries, and (iii) of the Company’s directors and senior officers. 
 (b) All of the outstanding shares of
capital stock or similar equity interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another
Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien that is prohibited by this Agreement (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4). 
 (c) Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization,
and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good
standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold
under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact. 
 (d) No Material Subsidiary is a party to, or
otherwise subject to, any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than this Agreement, the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the

 notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such financial statements and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that
are not disclosed on such financial statements or otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Documents. 
 Section 5.6.
Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation
of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is
bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than a conflict waived pursuant to a consent under
the Bank Credit Agreement delivered on or prior to the date of the Closing), or (ii) any corporate charter or by-laws, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or
ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary, except for such conflicts or breaches as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (c) violate any provision of
any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary, except for such violations as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 Section 5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and
Orders. (a) There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court

 (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it
is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws or the USA Patriot Act) of
any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 5.9. Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns
that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such
taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (b) the amount, applicability or
validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no
basis for any other tax or assessment that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal
periods are adequate. The federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been finally determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the
fiscal year ended December 3, 2005. 
 Section 5.10. Title to Property; Leases. The Company and its
Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or
purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases that
individually or in the aggregate are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects. 
 Section 5.11. Licenses, Permits, Etc. (a) The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and trade
names, or rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others, except for such conflicts that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (b) To the best knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries infringes in
any respect any license, permit, franchise, authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person, except for such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate,
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) To the best knowledge of the Company, there is no
violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
except for such violations that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.12. Compliance with ERISA. (a) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted
in and could not reasonably be expected to 
  

 -8- 








 result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability
pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be
expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I
or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate Material. 
 (b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the
end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of
such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities by an amount that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect in the case of any single Plan or in the aggregate for all Plans. The term “benefit liabilities” has the
meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA. 
 (c) The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities)
under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are Material. 
 (d) The expected post retirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to
liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material. 
 (e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Notes hereunder will not involve any transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in
connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of
such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser. 
 Section 5.13. Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any
similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 65 other Institutional Investors, each of which
has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of
Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

 Section 5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the
proceeds of the sale of the Notes as set forth in the “Proposed Financing” description of the Executive Summary of the Memorandum. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the
purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such
circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more
than 2% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 2% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms
“margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U. 
 Section 5.15. Existing Indebtedness for Borrowed Money; Future Liens. (a) Schedule 5.15 sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness for Borrowed
Money of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of August 29, 2009 (including a description of the obligors and obligees, principal amount outstanding and collateral therefor, if any, and Guaranty thereof, if any, but excluding Indebtedness for
Borrowed Money of the Company to any Subsidiary, or of any Subsidiary to the Company or any other Subsidiary), since which date there has been no Material increase in the amounts (other than advances against revolving credit facilities), and no
Material change in interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities, of the Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is
currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company or any
Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness for Borrowed Money to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled
dates of payment. 
 (b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has agreed or
consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by Section 10.2. 
 (c) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any provision contained in, any instrument evidencing
Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company or such Subsidiary, any agreement relating thereto or any other agreement (including, but not limited to, its charter or other organizational document) which limits the amount of, or otherwise imposes
restrictions on the incurring of, Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of the Company or any Subsidiary, except as specifically indicated in Schedule 5.15. 
 Section 5.16. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, Etc. (a) Neither the sale of the Notes by the Company hereunder nor its use of the proceeds thereof will violate the Trading with the
Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.

Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all material respects, with the USA Patriot Act. 
 (c) No part of the proceeds from the sale
of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in
order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, assuming in all cases that such Act applies to the Company. 
 Section 5.17. Status under Certain Statutes. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the ICC Termination Act of 1995, as amended, or the Federal Power Act, as amended. 
 Section 5.18. Notes Rank Pari Passu. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the Notes rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other unsecured Senior Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of
the Company, including, without limitation, all unsecured Senior Indebtedness of the Company described in Schedule 5.15 hereto. 
 Section 5.19. Environmental Matters. (a) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any claim or has received any notice of any claim, and no proceeding has been instituted
raising any claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or other assets, alleging any damage to the environment or violation of any
Environmental Laws, except, in each case, such as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge of any facts which would give rise to any claim, public or private, of violation of Environmental Laws or damage to the environment emanating from, occurring on or in any way related
to real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or to other assets or their use, except, in each case, such as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has stored any Hazardous Materials on real properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated
by any of them and has not disposed of any Hazardous Materials in a manner contrary to any Environmental Laws in each case in any manner that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Environmental Laws, except where failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

any series, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding (but, in the case of a partial prepayment, then pro rata among the Notes of such series to be prepaid in proportion to the
aggregate principal amount outstanding of each Note of such series), at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with

Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each
holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date. 
 Section 8.3. Change in Control. (a) Notice of Change in Control or Control Event. The Company will, within five Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the
occurrence of any Change in Control or Control Event, give written notice of such Change in Control or Control Event to each holder of Notes. If a Change in Control has occurred, such notice shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay Notes as
described in subparagraph (b) of this Section 8.3 and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in subparagraph (e) of this Section 8.3. 
 (b) Offer to Prepay Notes. The offer to prepay Notes contemplated by subparagraph (a) of this Section 8.3 shall be
an offer to prepay, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.3, all, but not less than all, the Notes held by each holder (in this case only, “holder” in respect of any Note registered in the name of a nominee
for a disclosed beneficial owner shall mean such beneficial owner) on a date specified in such offer (the “Proposed Prepayment Date”) that is not less than 30 days and not more than 120 days after the date of such offer

 -18- 








 Company not later than 15 days after receipt by such holder of the most recent offer of prepayment. A
failure by a holder of Notes to respond to an offer to prepay made pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be deemed to constitute rejection of such offer by such holder. 
 (d) Prepayment. Prepayment of the Notes to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be at 100% of the principal
amount of such Notes, together with interest on such Notes accrued to the date of prepayment, but without Make-Whole Amount or other premium. The prepayment shall be made on the Proposed Prepayment Date.

principal amount of each Note offered to be prepaid; (iv) the interest that would be due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Proposed Prepayment Date; (v) that the conditions of this Section 8.3 have been
fulfilled; and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature and date of the Change in Control. 
 (f) [Reserved]. 

 (g) Certain Definitions. “Change in Control” means (i) the acquisition of ownership, directly or
indirectly, beneficially or of record, by any Person or group (within the meaning of the Exchange Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder as in effect on the date hereof), of Equity Interests representing more than the
lesser of (A) 30% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the Company, or (B) the percentage of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by the issued and outstanding
Equity Interests of the Company which would, upon the acquisition of ownership thereof, directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record, by any Person or group (within the meaning of the Exchange Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission thereunder as in effect on the date hereof), give rise to a “Change in Control,” as that term is defined in the Bank Credit Agreement; of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by the issued and outstanding Equity
Interests of the Company; (ii) occupation of a majority of the seats (other than vacant seats) on the board of directors of the Company by Persons who were neither (A) nominated by the board of directors of the Company nor
(B) appointed by directors so nominated; or (iii) the acquisition of direct or indirect Control of the Company by any Person or group. 
 “Control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of a Person, whether through the ability to exercise
voting power, by contract or otherwise. “Controlling” and “Controlled” have meanings correlative thereto. 
 “Control Event” means: 
 (i) the execution by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries

 -19- 








 (ii) the execution of any written agreement which, when fully performed by
the parties thereto, would result in a Change in Control, or 
 (iii) the making of any written offer by any
person (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act as in effect on the date of the Closing) or related persons constituting a group (as such term is used in Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act as in effect
on the date of the Closing) to the holders of the common stock of the Company, which offer, if accepted by the requisite number of holders, would result in a Change in Control. 
 (j) All calculations contemplated in this Section 8.3 involving the capital stock of any Person shall be made with the
assumption that all convertible Securities of such Person then outstanding and all convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of any warrants, options and other rights outstanding at such time were converted at such time and that all options,
warrants and similar rights to acquire shares of capital stock of such Person were exercised at such time. 
 Section 8.4. Allocation of Partial Prepayments. In the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes of any series pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes of such series to be prepaid shall be
allocated pro rata among all of the holders of each of the Notes of such series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. All
partial prepayments made pursuant to Section 8.3 shall be applied only to the Notes of the holders who have elected to participate in such prepayment. 
 Section 8.5. Maturity; Surrender, Etc. In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become
due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company
shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered
to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note. 
 Section 8.6. Purchase of Notes. The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes
except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the
time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 15 Business Days. If
the holders of more than 10% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such 
  

 -20- 








 
fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least 5 Business Days
from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be
issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes. 
 Section 8.7. Make-Whole Amount. The term
“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called
Principal; provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: 
 “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid
pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. 
 “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by
discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a
discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. 
 “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, .50% (50 basis points) over
the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page
PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal
as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the
latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S.
Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. In the case of each determination under clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding
sentence, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the
actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The
Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note. 
  

 -21- 








 “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called
Principal, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the principal component of each Remaining
Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (ii) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of
such Remaining Scheduled Payment. 
 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the
Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due
date; provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest
accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or 12.1. 
 “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is
declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non-compliance with such laws,

to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles,
co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated; provided, however,
 
  

 -22- 








 that this Section 9.2 shall not require the Company or any Subsidiary to maintain such insurance
if, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the failure to maintain such insurance and any potential uninsured loss in connection therewith would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all
times; provided that this Section 9.3 shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business

before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need
pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if (a) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a
Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor if required in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (b) the nonpayment of all such taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims in the aggregate could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 10.3, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its legal existence. Subject to Sections 10.3 and 10.4, the Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect
the legal existence of each of its Subsidiaries (unless merged into the Company or a Wholly-owned Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or
failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such legal existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

times shall rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other present and future unsecured Senior Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of the Company which is not expressed to be subordinate or junior in rank to any other unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company. 
  

 -23- 








 Section 9.7. Books and Records. The Company will, and will cause each of its

 (iii) such documents and evidence with respect to such Subsidiary as the Required Holders may reasonably request in order to
establish the existence and good standing of such Subsidiary and the authorization of the transactions contemplated by such Subsidiary Guaranty; and

rights generally and by general equitable principles; and 
 Section 9.9. Most Favored Lender Status. (a) If
the Company enters into any amendment or other modification of the Bank Credit Agreement that results in one or more additional or more restrictive Financial Covenants than those contained in this Agreement, then the terms of this Agreement, without
any further action on the part of the Company or any of the holders of the Notes, will unconditionally be deemed on the date of execution of any such amendment or other modification to be automatically amended to include each such additional or
more restrictive Financial Covenant, together with all definitions relating thereto, and any event of default in respect of any such additional or more restrictive covenant(s) so included herein shall be deemed to be an Event of Default under

terminated and not replaced, then such Financial Covenant, without any further action on the part of the Company or any of the holders of the Notes, shall unconditionally be deemed on the date of execution of any such amendment or modification
to be then and thereupon be so excluded, terminated, loosened or otherwise amended or modified under this Agreement and Section 11(c) shall be modified accordingly, or if the Bank Credit Agreement itself is terminated and not replaced,
such Financial Covenant shall be deemed on the date of such termination to provide as it would have in the absence of any amendment or deemed amendment of this Agreement as contemplated in Section 9.9(a); provided that if a
Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time any such Financial Covenant is to be so excluded, terminated, loosened, amended or modified under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.9(b), the prior written consent thereto of
the Required Holders shall be required as a condition to the exclusion, termination, loosening or other amendment or modification of any such Financial Covenant for so long as such Default or Event of Default continues to exist; and provided,
further, that in any and all events, the affirmative and negative covenants and related definitions and Events of Default contained in this Agreement as in effect on the date of this Agreement, as amended (other than pursuant to operation of
Section 9.9(a)) shall not in any event be deemed or construed to be loosened or relaxed by operation of the terms of this Section 9.9(b), and only any such Financial Covenant included pursuant to Section 9.9(a)
shall be so excluded, terminated, loosened, amended or otherwise modified pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 (c) The Company and
the Required Holders shall from time to time promptly execute and deliver at the Company’s expense (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of counsel for the holders of the Notes) an amendment to this Agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Required Holders evidencing that, pursuant to this Section 9.9, this Agreement then and thereafter includes, excludes, amends or otherwise modifies any Financial Covenant;

applicable prepayment premium, on a pro rata basis of Senior Indebtedness of the Company (other than Senior Indebtedness of the Company owed to a Subsidiary or Affiliate) for which the Company has provided notice to the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness of its intent to prepay such Senior Indebtedness with such proceeds within 15 days of the date of the sale and such proceeds are so applied within 45 days after the date of such notice or otherwise applied within twelve months of the

the Company owed to a Subsidiary or Affiliate). It is understood and agreed by the Company that any such proceeds paid and applied to the prepayment of the Notes as hereinabove provided shall be offered and prepaid as and to the extent provided in
Section 8.2 (it being understood and agreed that with respect to the Notes, notwithstanding the terms and provisions of Section 8.2, an offer of prepayment pursuant to this clause of Section 10.4 of the Notes
shall be at 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of such prepayment, with respect to a series of Notes as the Company may designate, on a pro rata basis within each such series).

 Without limiting the foregoing clause (b), the Company agrees that: 
 (x) the timing and manner of any offer of prepayment to the holders of the Notes shall be in the manner contemplated by
Section 8.2; provided that any such prepayment of the Notes pursuant to this Section 10.4 may be in an amount less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and shall only be at 100% of
the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of such prepayment, and in no event with a Make-Whole Amount or other premium; 
 (y) any holder of the Notes may decline any offer of prepayment pursuant to the foregoing clause (B); provided
that a failure by a holder of the Notes to respond to any offer of prepayment pursuant to the foregoing within 15 days after receipt by such holder of such offer shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of such offer by such holder; and

 (z) if such offer is so accepted, the proceeds so offered towards the prepayment of the Notes and accepted
shall be prepaid and applied in the manner provided in Section 8.2, excepting only that such prepayment shall be at 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of such prepayment,
without payment of Make-Whole Amount or other premium.

have declined such offer of prepayment, the Company may use the remaining amount of such prepayment so declined for general corporate purposes.

related transactions (including without limitation the purchase, lease, sale or exchange of properties of any kind or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (other than the Company or another Subsidiary), except in the ordinary course and
pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length
transaction with a Person not an Affiliate. 
  

 -32- 








 Section 10.6. Line of Business. The Company will not and will not permit any
Subsidiary to engage in any business if, as a result, the general nature of the business in which the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, would then be engaged would be substantially changed from the general nature of the business in

(h) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 11(g) or described in clause (vi) of Section 11(g) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of

 (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may
at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for), and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are
prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. 
 Section 12.2. Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and
payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific

or (c), the holders of not less than 55% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue
interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to
the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration,

 -36- 








 Section 12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc. No course of
dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this
Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the
Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under
this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other
disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to

Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between each
Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

February 26, 2010, any such amendment or waiver entered into as contemplated by the foregoing proviso of this Section 17.1 shall, at the option of the Required Holders of the then outstanding Notes, be deemed null and void.

 Section 17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. 
 (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount or series of Notes then owned by it)
with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the
provisions hereof or of the Notes or of any Subsidiary Guaranty. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of
outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes. 
 (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or
provide other credit support, to any holder of any series of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Note or any
Subsidiary Guaranty unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of each series of Notes then outstanding even if such
holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 
 (c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent made
pursuant to this Section 17.2 by the holder of any Note that has transferred or has agreed to transfer, or has accepted an offer of prepayment of, such Note to the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company and has provided
or has agreed to provide such written consent as a condition to such transfer or prepayment shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that
would

  

 -41- 








 not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other
holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such transferring holder or holder whose Note is being prepaid. 
 Section 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies
equally to all holders of Notes of each series and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note of any series and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such
amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note
of any series nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note of any series or any Subsidiary Guaranty shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and
references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
 Section 17.4.
Notes Held by Company, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given
under this Agreement or the Notes or any Subsidiary Guaranty, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes or in any Subsidiary Guaranty to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
 SECTION 18. NOTICES. 
 All notices and
communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telefacsimile if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered
or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent: 
 (i) if to any Purchaser or its nominee, to such Purchaser or nominee at the address specified for such communications in
Schedule A, or at such other address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing, 
 (ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing, or 
 (iii) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the attention of the Chief
Financial Officer, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing. 
  

 -42- 








 Notices under this Section 18 will be deemed given only when actually received. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 18, the Company may, in its discretion, elect, from time to time, to provide notices, reports and other information (including financial statements and other reports) otherwise required by the
terms of Sections 7.1(a), 7.1(b), 7.1(c) and 7.2(a) of this Agreement (collectively, “Periodic Reporting”) via electronic mail transmission (“e-mail”) to the e-mail address specified by such Purchaser
or its nominee in Schedule A, or at such other e-mail address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing. 
 SECTION 19. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. 
 This
Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and
(c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital or other similar process and such
Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or
administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction
shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing
evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
 SECTION 20. CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION. 
 For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means
information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled
or otherwise adequately identified in writing when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary; provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or
otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known
to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will
maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser; provided that such Purchaser
may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its
Notes), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this 
  

 -43- 








 Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to
which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20),
(v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (vi) any
federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such
Purchaser’s investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser,
(x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably
determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and this Agreement; provided, that such Purchasers shall use
reasonable commercial efforts to inform the Company as promptly as reasonably possible of its intention to make a disclosure under clause (viii) (w), (x) or (y) unless to so inform the Company would be unlawful. Each holder of a Note,
by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the
delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement
with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20. 
 SECTION 21. SUBSTITUTION
OF PURCHASER. 
 Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the
purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement
and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this
Section 21) shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all
of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21) shall no longer be deemed to
refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 22. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 Section 22.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns
(including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not. 
  

 -44- 








 Section 22.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or
the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.4 that the notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or
Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next
succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional
days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. 
 Section 22.3. Accounting
Terms. All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made
pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. 
 For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained in this Agreement, any election by the Company to measure an item of Indebtedness using an amount other than par (as permitted
by FASB 159 or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made. 
 Section 22.4. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision
in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 22.5. Construction, Etc. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed
(absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other
covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof. 
 Section 22.6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but
all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. 
  

 -45- 








 Section 22.7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed
and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York, excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the
laws of a jurisdiction other than such State. 
 Section 22.8. Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury
Trial. (a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to
the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any
such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (b) The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any
holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.8(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in
every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it.
Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 22.8 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law,
or limit any right that the holders of any of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other
jurisdiction. 
  

 -46- 








 (d) THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY
WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT
TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

 This GUARANTY AGREEMENT dated

 C. The

 NOW, THEREFORE, as required by Sections 2.2
and 9.8 of the Note Purchase Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree, jointly and severally,
as follows: 
 SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. 
 Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement unless herein defined or the context shall
otherwise require. 
 SECTION 2. GUARANTY OF NOTES AND
NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. 
 (a) Subject to the limitation set forth in
Section 2(b) hereof, each Guarantor jointly and severally does hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantee unto the Holders: (1) the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes from time to time outstanding, as and when such payments shall become due and payable whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration or otherwise (including (to the extent legally
enforceable) interest due on overdue payments of principal, premium, if any, or interest at the rate set forth in the Notes and interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Notes after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or
the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Company, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) in Federal or other immediately available funds of the
United States of America which at the time of payment or demand therefor shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, (2) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Company of each and all of the obligations,
covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed by the Company under the terms of the Notes and the Note Purchase Agreement and (3) the full and prompt payment, upon demand by any Holder, of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise
(including attorneys’ fees), if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any rights, privileges or liabilities in favor of the Holders under or in respect of the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement or
under this Guaranty or in any consultation or action in connection therewith or herewith and in each and every case irrespective of the validity, regularity, or enforcement of any of the Notes or Note Purchase Agreement or any of the terms thereof

 (b) The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not exceed an

 SECTION 3. GUARANTY OF PAYMENT
AND PERFORMANCE. 
 This is a guarantee of payment and performance and each Guarantor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to require that any action on or in respect of any Note or the Note Purchase Agreement be brought against the Company or any other Person or that resort be had to any direct or indirect
security for the Notes or for this Guaranty or any other remedy. Any Holder may, at its option, proceed hereunder against any Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when due, the payment of which is guaranteed hereby, without first
proceeding against the Company or any other Person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Notes or for this Guaranty or any other remedy. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected or
impaired by any acceptance by any Holder of any direct or indirect security for, or other guaranties of, any Indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company or any other Person to any Holder or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by any
Holder to realize upon or protect any such guarantees, Indebtedness, liability or obligation or any notes or other instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security therefor or by any approval, consent, waiver, or other action
taken, or omitted to be taken by any such Holder. 
 The covenants and agreements on the part of the Guarantors herein contained
shall take effect as joint and several covenants and agreements, and references to the Guarantors shall take effect as references to each of them and none of them shall be released from liability hereunder by reason of the guarantee ceasing to be
binding as a continuing security on any other of them. 
 SECTION 4. GENERAL PROVISIONS
RELATING TO THE GUARANTY. 
 (a) Each Guarantor hereby consents and
agrees that any Holder or Holders from time to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from any other Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, and upon such terms and conditions
as any such Holder or Holders may deem advisable: 
 (1) extend in whole or in part (by renewal or otherwise),
modify, change, compromise, release or extend the duration of the time for the performance or payment of any Indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any Indebtedness, liability

Indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company on the Notes; or 
 (3) settle, adjust or compromise any
claim of the Company against any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any Indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Company on the Notes.

release, waiver, surrender, exchange, modification, amendment, impairment, substitution, settlement, adjustment or compromise and that the same shall be binding upon it, and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all
defenses, counterclaims or offsets which it might or could have by reason thereof, it being understood that such Guarantor shall at all times be bound by this Guaranty and remain liable hereunder. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law: 
 (1) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by the Holders or of the creation, renewal or accrual of any liability of the
Company, present or future, or of the reliance of such Holders upon this Guaranty (it being understood that every Indebtedness, liability and obligation described in Section 2 hereof shall conclusively be presumed to have been created,
contracted or incurred in reliance upon the execution of this Guaranty); 
 (2) demand of payment by any Holder
from the Company or any other Person indebted in any manner on or for any of the Indebtedness, liabilities or obligations hereby guaranteed; and 
 (3) presentment for the payment by any Holder or any other Person of the Notes or any other instrument, protest thereof and notice of its dishonor to any party thereto and to such Guarantor. 

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the rights of any Holder to enforce such obligations by any proceedings,
whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination (other than by payment in full of the Notes and the obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement),
whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever or otherwise and shall not be subject to any defense, set-off, counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaim), recoupment or termination whatsoever. 
 (c) The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be binding upon the Guarantors and their successors and assigns, and shall remain in
full force and effect until the entire principal, interest and premium, if any, on the Notes and all other sums due pursuant to Section 2 shall have been paid and such obligations shall not be affected, modified or impaired upon the
happening from time to time of any event, including without limitation any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of the Guarantors:

part of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person of its obligations under the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement, this Guaranty or any other agreements; or

adversely affect, the performance by the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person of its respective obligations under or in respect of the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement, this Guaranty or any other agreement; or 
  

 -5-

collection or protection, failure in presentment or demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of default and of nonpayment, any failure to give notice to any Guarantor of failure of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person to keep

 (12) any defense whatsoever that: (i) the Company or any other Person might have to the payment of the Notes (principal, premium, if any, or interest), other than payment thereof in Federal or other immediately available funds, or
(ii) the Company or any other Person might have to the performance or observance of any of the provisions of the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement or any other agreement, whether through the satisfaction or purported satisfaction by the

indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Notes; or 
 (13) any act or failure to act with regard to the Notes,

 -6- 








 provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not
be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty and the parties hereto that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be absolute and unconditional
and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except by the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes in accordance with their respective terms whenever the same shall become due and payable as in the Notes provided
and all other sums due and payable under the Note Purchase Agreement, at the place specified in and all in the manner and with the effect provided in the Notes and the Note Purchase Agreement, as each may be amended or modified from time to time.
Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, the Company shall default under or in respect of the terms of the Notes or the Note
Purchase Agreement and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Company under the Notes or the Note Purchase Agreement, this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to
each and every subsequent default. 
 (d) All rights of any Holder may be transferred or assigned at any time and shall be
considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the transfer of such Note whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Guarantors under this Guaranty or to the Company. 
 (e) To the extent of any payments made under this Guaranty, the Guarantors shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holder or Holders upon
whose Notes such payment was made, but each Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation shall be junior and subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all amounts due and owing by the
Company with respect to the Notes and the Note Purchase Agreement and by the Guarantors under this Guaranty, and the Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of subrogation, and the Guarantors shall not accept any payment in
respect of such right of subrogation, until all amounts due and owing by the Company under or in respect of the Notes and the Note Purchase Agreement and all amounts due and owing by the Guarantors hereunder have indefeasibly been finally paid in
cash in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the indefeasible payment in cash in full of the Notes and all other amounts payable under the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement
and this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and shall forthwith be paid to the Holders to be credited and applied to the amounts due or to become due with respect to the Notes and all other amounts payable
under the Note Purchase Agreement and this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it has received direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement and that the
waiver set forth in this paragraph (e) is knowingly made as a result of the receipt of such benefits. 
 (f) The
Guarantors hereby agree, as among themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) (but subject to the succeeding provisions of this Section 4(f)), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an
amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, assets, liabilities and debts of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of 
  

 -7- 








 such Excess Payment (as defined below). The payment obligation of any Guarantor to any Excess Funding
Guarantor under this Section 4(f) shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty, and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall
not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations. For purposes hereof, (a) “Excess Funding Guarantor” shall mean, in respect of any obligations
arising under the other provisions of this Guaranty (hereafter, the “Guarantied Obligations”), a Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) “Excess
Payment” shall mean, in respect of any Guarantied Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guarantied Obligations; and (c) “Pro Rata Share”, for the purposes
of this Section 4(f), shall mean, for any Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and
liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all
assets and other properties of the Company and all of the Guarantors exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Company
under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Guarantors hereunder) of the Company and all of the Guarantors, all as of the date of the first Closing (if any Guarantor becomes a party hereto subsequent to the date of the first Closing, then for the
purposes of this Section 4(f) such subsequent Guarantor shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor as of the date of the first Closing and the information pertaining to, and only pertaining to, such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor
became a Guarantor shall be deemed true as of the date of the first Closing). 
 (g) Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent
the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person makes any payment on any Note, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to
be retained by or repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and
continued in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to
any Holder from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty,
preference, illegality, invalidity, or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person. 
 (h) No Holder shall be
under any obligation: (1) to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantors or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Company under or in respect of the Notes or the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder or (2) to pursue any
other remedy that the Guarantors may or may not be able to pursue themselves and that may lighten the Guarantors’ burden, any right to which each Guarantor hereby expressly waives. 
  

 -8- 








 (i) The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty rank pari passu in right of
payment with all other Indebtedness of such Guarantor which is not secured or which is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE GUARANTORS. 
 Each Guarantor represents and warrants to each Holder that: 
 (a) Such Guarantor is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (1) the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets or properties of such Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (2) the ability of
such Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty, or (3) the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty (herein in this Section 5, a “Material Adverse Effect”). Such Guarantor has the power and
authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform the provisions hereof. 
 (b) This Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such Guarantor, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal,
valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (1) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (2) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 (c) The execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty will not (1) contravene, result in any breach of, or
constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of such Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, charter document or
by-law, or any other agreement or instrument to which such Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries is bound or by which such Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (2) conflict with or
result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to such Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries or (3) violate any provision
of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the such Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries. 
 (d) No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by such
Guarantor of this Guaranty. 
  

 -9- 








 (e) Such Guarantor is solvent, has capital not unreasonably small in relation to its
business or any contemplated or undertaken transaction and has assets having a value both at fair valuation and at present fair salable value greater than the amount required to pay its debts as they become due and greater than the amount that will
be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured. Such Guarantor does not intend to incur, or believe or should have believed that it will incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they
become due. Such Guarantor will not be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of, and performance of its obligations under, this Guaranty. Such Guarantor does not intend to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors by or through the execution
and delivery of, or performance of its obligations under, this Guaranty. 
 (f) The obligations of such Guarantor under this
Guaranty rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other unsecured Senior Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 6. GUARANTOR COVENANTS. 
 From and after the date of issuance
of the Notes by the Company and continuing so long as any amount remains unpaid thereon each Guarantor agrees to comply with the terms and provisions of Sections 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 and 9.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement, insofar as such provisions
apply to such Guarantor, as if said Sections were set forth herein in full. 
 Each Guarantor further covenants that so long as
any of the Notes are outstanding all obligations under this Guaranty of such Guarantor shall rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other present and future unsecured Senior Indebtedness (actual or contingent) of such Guarantor
which is not expressed to be subordinate or junior in rank to any other unsecured Indebtedness of such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 7. PAYMENTS FREE AND CLEAR OF TAXES. 
 All payments whatsoever under this Guaranty will be made by such Guarantor in lawful currency of the United States of America (“U.S. Dollars”) free and clear of, and without liability or
withholding or deduction for or on account of, any present or future Taxes of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction other than the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in such
jurisdiction) (hereinafter a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Tax is compelled by law. 
 If any deduction or withholding for any Tax of a Taxing Jurisdiction shall at any time be required in respect of any amounts to be paid by a Guarantor under this Guaranty, such Guarantor will pay to the
relevant Taxing Jurisdiction the full amount required to be withheld, deducted or otherwise paid before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon and pay to each Holder such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net
amounts paid to such Holder pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty after such deduction, withholding or payment (including without limitation any required deduction or withholding of Tax on or with respect to such additional amount), shall be not
less than the amounts then due and payable to such Holder under

  

 -10- 








 
the terms of this Guaranty before the assessment of such Tax, provided that no payment of any additional amounts shall be required to be made for or on account of: 
 (a) any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder
(or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member of, shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation or any Person other than the Holder to whom the Notes or any amount payable
thereon is attributable for the purposes of such Tax) and the Taxing Jurisdiction, other than the mere holding of the relevant Note or the receipt of payments thereunder or in respect thereof, including without limitation such Holder (or such other
Person described in the above parenthetical) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been present or engaged in trade or business therein or having or having had an establishment, office, fixed base or branch therein,
provided that this exclusion shall not apply with respect to a Tax that would not have been imposed but for such Guarantor, after the date of the first Closing, opening an office in, moving an office to, reincorporating in, or changing the Taxing
Jurisdiction from or through which payments on account of this Guaranty or the Notes are made to, the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing the relevant Tax; 
 (b) any Tax that would not have been imposed but for the delay or failure by such Holder (following a written request by such Guarantor) in the filing with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of Forms (as
defined below) that are required to be filed by such Holder to avoid or reduce such Taxes and that in the case of any of the foregoing would not result in any confidential or proprietary income tax return information being revealed, either directly
or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such Holder, provided that such Holder shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this clause (b) upon the good faith completion and
submission of such Forms as may be specified in a written request of such Guarantor no later than 60 days after receipt by such Holder of such written request (accompanied by copies of such Forms and related instructions, if any, all in the English
language or with an English translation thereof); or 
 (c) any combination of clauses (a) and (b) above; 

and provided further that in no event shall such Guarantor be obligated to pay such additional amounts (i) to any Holder not resident in the United
States of America or any other jurisdiction in which an original Purchaser is resident for tax purposes on the date of the first Closing in excess of the amounts that such Guarantor would be obligated to pay if such Holder had been a resident of the
United States of America or such other jurisdiction, as applicable, for purposes of, and eligible for the benefits of, any double taxation treaty at the time in effect between the United States of America or such other jurisdiction and the relevant
Taxing Jurisdiction or (ii) to any Holder registered in the name of a nominee if under the law of the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (or the current regulatory interpretation of such law) securities held in the name of a nominee do not qualify
for an exemption from the relevant Tax and such Guarantor shall have given timely notice of such law or interpretation to such Holder. 
  

 -11- 








 By acceptance of any Note, each Holder agrees that it will from time to time with reasonable
promptness (x) duly complete and deliver to or as reasonably directed by such Guarantor all such forms, certificates, documents and returns provided to such Holder by such Guarantor (collectively, together with instructions for completing the
same, “Forms”) required to be filed by or on behalf of such Holder in order to avoid or reduce any such Tax pursuant to the provisions of an applicable statute, regulation or administrative practice of the relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction or of a tax treaty between the United States and such Taxing Jurisdiction and (y) provide such Guarantor with such information with respect to such Holder as such Guarantor may reasonably request in order to complete any such
Forms, provided that nothing in this Section 7 shall require any Holder to provide information with respect to any such Form or otherwise if in the opinion of such Holder such Form or disclosure of information would involve the
disclosure of tax return or other information that is confidential or proprietary to such Holder, and provided further that each such Holder shall be deemed to have complied with its obligation under this paragraph with respect to any Form if such
Form shall have been duly completed and delivered by such Holder to such Guarantor or mailed to the appropriate taxing authority, whichever is applicable, within 60 days following a written request of such Guarantor (which request shall be
accompanied by copies of such Form and English translations of any such Form not in the English language) and, in the case of a transfer of any Note, at least 90 days prior to the relevant interest payment date. 
 On or before the date of the first Closing such Guarantor will furnish you with copies of the appropriate Form (and English translation if
required as aforesaid) currently required to be filed in a Taxing Jurisdiction pursuant to clause (b) of the first paragraph of this Section 7, if any, and in connection with the transfer of any Note such Guarantor will furnish the
transferee of such Note with copies of any Form and English translation then required. 
 If any payment is made by such
Guarantor to or for the account of the Holder of any Note after deduction for or on account of any Taxes, and increased payments are made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Section 7, then, if such Holder at its sole discretion
determines that it has received or been granted a refund of such Taxes, such Holder shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such refund, reimburse to such Guarantor such amount as such Holder shall,
in its sole discretion, determine to be attributable to the relevant Taxes or deduction or withholding. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of any Holder to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and, in
particular, no Holder shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability in respect of such Tax in priority to any other claims, reliefs, credits or deductions available to it or (other than as set
forth in clause (b) above) oblige any Holder to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof. 
 Such Guarantor will furnish the Holders, promptly and in any event within 60 days after the date of any payment by such Guarantor of any Tax in respect of any amounts paid under this Guaranty, the
original tax receipt issued by the relevant taxation or other authorities involved for all amounts paid as aforesaid (or if such original tax receipt is not available or must legally be kept in the possession of such Guarantor, a duly certified copy
of the original tax receipt or any other reasonably satisfactory evidence of payment), together with such other documentary evidence with respect to such payments as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any Holder. 
  

 -12- 








 If such Guarantor makes payment to or for the account of any Holder and such Holder is
entitled to a refund of the Tax to which such payment is attributable upon the making of a filing (other than a Form described above), then such Holder shall, as soon as practicable after receiving written request from such Guarantor (which shall
specify in reasonable detail and supply the refund forms to be filed) use reasonable efforts to complete and deliver such refund forms to or as directed by such Guarantor, subject, however, to the same limitations with respect to Forms as are set
forth above. 
 The obligations of such Guarantor under this Section 7 shall survive the payment or transfer of any
Note and the provisions of this Section 7 shall also apply to successive transferees of the Notes. 
 SECTION 8.
GOVERNING LAW. 
 (a) THIS GUARANTY SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE THEREIN. 
 (b) Each Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating solely
to this Guaranty or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any
such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought
in an inconvenient forum. 
 (c) Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that a final judgment
in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon it subject to rights of appeal, as the case may be, and may be enforced in the courts of the United States of America or the State of New York (or any
other courts to the jurisdiction of which it or any of its assets is or may be subject) by a suit upon such judgment. 
 (d)
Each Guarantor consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding solely by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified or priority mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or delivering a copy thereof in the manner for
delivery of notices specified in Section 11, to the Company, as its agent for the purpose of accepting service of any process in the United States. Such Guarantor agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every
respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices
hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service. 
  

 -13- 








 (e) Nothing in this Section 8 shall affect the right of any Holder to serve
process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the Holders may have to bring proceedings against such Guarantor in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction
in any other jurisdiction. 
 (f) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to receive for it, and on its behalf,
service of process in the United States. 
 (g) THE PARTIES HERETO
HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH
RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH. 
 SECTION 9.
JUDGMENTS. 
 Any payment on account of an amount that is payable hereunder or in U.S. Dollars which is made to or
for the account of any Holder in any other currency, whether as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof or the realization of any security or the liquidation of such Guarantor, shall constitute a discharge of the obligation of
such Guarantor under this Guaranty only to the extent of the amount of U.S. Dollars which such Holder could purchase in the foreign exchange markets in London, England, with the amount of such other currency in accordance with normal banking
procedures at the rate of exchange prevailing on the London Banking Day following receipt of the payment first referred to above. If the amount of U.S. Dollars that could be so purchased is less than the amount of U.S. Dollars originally due to such
Holder, such Guarantor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and save harmless such Holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Guaranty, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such
Holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under the Notes or under any judgment or order. As used herein the term
“London Banking Day” shall mean any day other than Saturday or Sunday or a day on which commercial banks are required or authorized by law to be closed in London, England. 
 SECTION 10. AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. 
 (a) This Guaranty may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only
with) the written consent of each Guarantor and the Required Holders. 
 (b) The Guarantors will provide each Holder
(irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such Holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed
amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof. The Guarantors will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or 
  

 -14- 








 consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10 to each Holder promptly following
the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Holders. 
 (c) The
Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any Holder as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any Holder of any waiver or
amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each Holder even if such Holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

 (d) Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 10 applies equally to all Holders and is
binding upon them and upon each future holder and upon the Guarantors. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant or agreement not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of
dealing between the Guarantors and any Holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Holder. As used herein, the term “this Guaranty” and references thereto shall mean this Guaranty
as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
 (e) Solely for the purpose of determining whether the Holders of the
requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Guaranty, Notes directly or indirectly owned by any Guarantor, the Company or any of
their respective subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding. 
 SECTION 11. NOTICES;
ENGLISH LANGUAGE. 
 All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and
sent (a) by telefacsimile if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage
prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent: 
 (1) if to an Initial Note Purchaser or such Initial Note Purchaser’s nominee, to such Initial Note Purchaser or such Initial Note Purchaser’s nominee at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A to the Note
Purchase Agreement, or at such other address as such Initial Note Purchaser or such Initial Note Purchaser’s nominee shall have specified to any Guarantor or the Company in writing, 
 (2) if to any other Holder, to such Holder at such address as such Holder shall have specified to any Guarantor or the
Company in writing, or 
 (3) if to any Guarantor, to such Guarantor c/o the Company at its address set forth at
the beginning of the Note Purchase Agreement to the attention of                     , or at such other address as such Guarantor shall have
specified to the Holders in writing. 
  

 -15- 








 Notices under this Section 11 will be deemed given only when actually received. 
 Each document, instrument, financial statement, report, notice or other communication delivered in connection with this Guaranty shall be in
English or accompanied by an English translation thereof. 
 This Guaranty has been prepared and signed in English and the
parties hereto agree that the English version hereof and thereof (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) shall be the only version valid for the purpose of the interpretation and construction hereof and thereof notwithstanding the
preparation of any translation into another language hereof or thereof, whether official or otherwise or whether prepared in relation to any proceedings which may be brought in any other jurisdiction in respect hereof or thereof. 
 SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 (a) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to any Holder is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given under this Guaranty now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such
right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle any Holder to exercise any remedy reserved to it under the
Guaranty, it shall not be necessary for such Holder to physically produce its Note in any proceedings instituted by it or to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required. 
 (b) The Guarantors will pay all sums becoming due under this Guaranty by the method and at the address specified in the Note Purchase
Agreement, or by such other method or at such other address as any Holder shall have from time to time specified to the Guarantors in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this Guaranty or any Note. 
 (c) Any provision of this Guaranty that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to
the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 (d) If the whole or any part of this Guaranty shall be now or
hereafter become unenforceable against any one or more of the Guarantors for any reason whatsoever or if it is not executed by any one or more of the Guarantors, this Guaranty shall nevertheless be and remain fully binding upon and enforceable
against each other Guarantor as if it had been made and delivered only by such other Guarantors. 
  

 -16- 








 (e) This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of each Holder and its successors and assigns so long as its Notes remain outstanding and unpaid. 
 (f) This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less
than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. 
 SECTION 13. WAIVER OF
IMMUNITY. 
 Each Guarantor irrevocably waives any immunity to which it or its property may at any time be or
become entitled, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, from any set-off or legal action in New York or elsewhere, including immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction of any court or tribunal, and immunity of
any of its property from attachment prior to judgment or from execution of a judgment. 
 SECTION 14.
INDEMNITY. 
 To the fullest extent of applicable law, each Guarantor shall indemnify and save each Holder
harmless from and against any losses which may arise by virtue of any of the obligations hereby guaranteed being or becoming for any reason whatsoever in whole or in part void, voidable, contrary to law, invalid, ineffective or otherwise
unenforceable by the Holder or any of them in accordance with its terms (all of the foregoing collectively, an “Indemnifiable Circumstance”). For greater certainty, these losses shall include without limitation all obligations
hereby guaranteed which would have been payable by the Company but for the existence of an Indemnifiable Circumstance, net of any withholding or deduction of or on account of any Relevant Tax in accordance with Section 7 hereof;
provided, however, that the extent of the Guarantor’s aggregate liability under this Section 14 shall not at any time exceed the amount (but for any Indemnifiable Circumstance) otherwise guaranteed pursuant to
Section 2.

 FORM OF OPINION OF
SPECIAL COUNSEL 
 TO THE COMPANY

 [SEE ATTACHED.] 
 EXHIBIT 4.4(a) 
 (to Note Purchase Agreement) 







 [On Briggs & Morgan P.A. Letterhead] 
 December 16, 2009 
 To the Purchasers who are
parties to the 
 Note Purchase Agreement described below 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 We have acted as counsel to H.B. Fuller Company, a
Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), and Specialty Construction Brands, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the “Subsidiary Guarantor”), in connection with the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of December 16, 2009
(the “Agreement”), among the Company and the Purchasers named on Schedule A thereto. In that capacity, we have reviewed the Agreement, the Notes issued by the Company under the Agreement payable to the Purchasers, each dated
December 16, 2009, and the Subsidiary Guaranty dated December 16, 2009, entered into by the Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of the Purchasers (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”). This opinion letter is delivered
pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Agreement. All capitalized terms used in this letter and not otherwise defined in it shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement. 
 In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such
documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments and have conducted such other investigations as we have deemed necessary or advisable. As to certain matters of fact material to the opinions expressed in this
letter, we have relied on the representations made in the Agreement and in certificates of public officials and officers of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor, and we have relied upon a letter of even date herewith from Citigroup Global
Markets Inc. as placement agent addressed to us, the Company, and Chapman and Cutler LLP. We have not independently established the facts so relied on. We have also examined the originals or copies of the documents listed in a certificate of an

 As used in this opinion letter, the phrases “to our knowledge,” “known to us” or similar words mean the actual, conscious
awareness on the date of this letter of the attorneys in our firm who have been actively involved in the negotiation or preparation of the Transaction Documents or this opinion letter. 
 We assume with your permission and without investigation: (i) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents by all parties thereto other than the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantor, (ii) the validity, binding effect and enforceability under applicable law of the Transaction Documents against the parties thereto other than the Company and
the Subsidiary Guarantor, (iii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, (iv) the genuineness of all signatures, (v) the legal capacity of natural persons, and (vi) the conformity to originals of all
documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. 
 Based upon the assumptions set
forth above and the other limitations and qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that: 
 1. The Company is a
corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Minnesota and has the corporate power and the corporate authority to execute and perform the Agreement and to issue the Notes. 
 2. The Subsidiary Guarantor is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Minnesota and has the
corporate power and the corporate authority to execute and perform the Subsidiary Guaranty. 
 3. The Agreement and the Notes
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in
accordance with their terms. 
 4. The Subsidiary Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the
part of the Subsidiary Guarantor, has been duly executed and delivered by the Subsidiary Guarantor, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against the Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with
its terms. 
 5. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the Subsidiary
Guarantor do not require any consent or approval of, registration, qualification or filing with, or any other action by, any governmental authority under the laws of the United States or the State of Minnesota, other than a filing on Form 8-K under
the Exchange Act with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement.

 6. The issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company, the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by each of the Company and the
Subsidiary Guarantor, and the payment and performance of its respective obligations under the Transaction Documents, do not (a) violate any law or regulation applicable to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor, (b) violate the articles
of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor, (c) violate any Existing Order Document, (d) result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any Existing Debt Document, or (e) result in the
creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantor under any Existing Order Document or Existing Debt Document. 
 7. The issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes and the delivery of the Subsidiary Guaranty under the circumstances contemplated by the Agreement do not require the registration of the Notes or the
Subsidiary Guaranty under the Securities Act or the qualification of an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. 
 8. The issuance of the Notes and the use of the proceeds of the sale of the Notes in accordance with the provisions of and contemplated by the Agreement do not violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System. 
 9. Neither the Company nor the Subsidiary Guarantor is an “investment company” or a company
“controlled by” an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 10. Neither the Company nor the Subsidiary Guarantor is a party to any pending, or overtly threatened in writing, action or proceeding known to us that questions the validity or enforceability of the
Transaction Documents. 
 11. Except for procedural issues, which will be governed by Minnesota law, in a properly presented
case arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents in any court of the state of Minnesota or in any federal court sitting in the state of Minnesota, such court should recognize and give effect to the provisions of the Transaction Documents
to the effect that the Transaction Documents shall be governed by the law of New York. 
 Our opinions are subject to the
following additional qualifications: 
 (a) Our opinions are limited to the Federal law of the United States and the law of the
State of Minnesota. We note that the Transaction Documents provide that they are to be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. Our opinion is given as if the Transaction Documents were governed by and construed
in accordance with the law of the State of Minnesota, excluding choice-of-law principles.

 (b) The enforceability of the Agreement and the Notes against the Company, and of the Subsidiary Guaranty against the Subsidiary Guarantor,
is subject to and may be limited by (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ or secured creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable
principles, whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (iii) applicable statutes of limitation. 
 (c) We
express no opinion with respect to the validity and enforceability of (i) any remedies insofar as any party exercising such remedies may take any action that is arbitrary or capricious, unreasonable, not in good faith, or not commercially
reasonable; (ii) provisions to the effect that failure to exercise or delay in exercising rights or remedies will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy or that purport to render ineffective any waiver, modification or amendment
not in writing; (iii) waivers of any statutory or constitutional rights or remedies; (iv) provisions to the effect that remedies are cumulative or that stated remedies are not exclusive; and (v) any provision for late payment fees,
default interest, liquidated damages or other fees, charges or amounts that may be construed as a penalty. 
 (d) We express no
opinion with respect to the ability of any party to collect or be reimbursed for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to the extent its rights may be limited to reasonable fees and expenses as determined by a court, or it is not the
prevailing party in the action. 
 (e) We express no opinion with respect to whether any Purchaser is required to file a Notice
of Business Activities Report under Minnesota Statutes Section 290.371. Any party who is so required and does not file such a report has no cause of action upon which it may bring suit under Minnesota law, except for issues related to its
Minnesota tax liability, unless and until it pays all taxes, interest, and civil penalties due the State of Minnesota for all periods, or provides for their payment by security or bond. Insofar as our opinion may relate to the enforceability of any
agreement under Minnesota law or in a Minnesota court, we have assumed that any party seeking to enforce such agreement has at all times been, and will continue at all times to be, exempt from the requirement of filing a Notice of Business
Activities Report or, if not exempt, has, prior to the date of such enforcement, made such filing and paid any such taxes, interest and civil penalties due. 
 This opinion is rendered solely to you in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. This opinion may not be relied upon by any Person other than the addressees hereof and their
respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Reliance Parties”), and may not be relied upon by any Reliance Party for any other purpose, in each case without our prior written consent.

opinion be quoted, circulated or referred to in any other document without our prior written consent, except that copies of this opinion may be provided to any regulatory agency having supervisory authority over a Reliance Party and except that this
opinion may be used in connection with the assertion of a defense as to which this opinion is relevant and necessary or in response to a court order or other legal process.
