herein on its part after receipt of a written request to do so from the Trustee (it being understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), the Trustee may itself perform, or cause
performance of, such agreement, in which case the reasonable expenses of the Trustee, including the fees and expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Equityholder under Section 12.1 to the extent such
Equityholder would have otherwise been responsible therefor under this Pledge and Security Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 6.1 No
Liens. Each Equityholder agrees that, without the consent of the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, it will not (a) sell or otherwise dispose of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such
Equityholder or any interest therein or (b) except for Permitted Liens, create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any interest therein; provided,
however, that, so long as no Default in respect of the payment of principal, Premium, if any, and interest on any Notes or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from
the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, each Equityholder will be entitled to sell, transfer, assign, convey, contribute or grant the Issuer Pledged Equity of such Equityholder (x) subject to the lien of this Pledge and Security
Agreement and (y) so long as (i) such Issuer Pledged Equity in the hands of each transferee remain subject to the pledge under this Pledge and Security Agreement, (ii) the Trustee shall have been provided with an Opinion of Counsel as

and making representations and warranties to the effect set forth in Article IV, (iii) the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of the Trustee to be bound by the provisions of this Pledge and Security Agreement and (iv) the
transferee is not subject to U.S. federal withholding tax in respect of the Royalties.

shall promptly provide the Trustee with copies of all notices and other communications received by such Equityholder with respect to any Issuer Pledged Collateral registered in the name of such Equityholder that could adversely affect in any
material respect the validity, perfection or priority of the pledge of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it pursuant to this Pledge and Security Agreement. 
 Section 6.3 Voting Rights. So long as any Equityholder is the owner of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Pledge and Security Agreement or
any other Deal Document, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee or otherwise has actual knowledge thereof, such Equityholder may exercise any and
all voting and consensual powers pertaining to the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or 

  

 6 








 
any part thereof. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of which such Equityholder has received written notice from the Trustee,
no Equityholder shall be entitled to exercise any of the powers described in the preceding sentence, which shall be exercised exclusively by the Trustee. 
 Section 6.4 Dividends and Distributions. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Equityholder may receive and retain any dividends and other distributions on the Issuer Pledged
Equity of such Equityholder. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Equityholder shall be entitled to receive any subsequent dividends or other distributions on the Issuer Pledged Equity of such Equityholder and, unless otherwise
agreed by the Senior Trustee at the Direction of Noteholders of a majority of the Outstanding Principal Balance of the Senior Class of Notes, all such subsequent dividends and other distributions shall constitute Issuer Pledged Collateral of such
Equityholder. 
 Section 6.5 Capital Securities. Each Equityholder agrees that it will not accept any Capital Securities or other
equity ownership interests, any rights or options to acquire any Capital Securities or other equity ownership interests or other securities, each in addition to or in substitution for the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, without prior
written consent from the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, unless the foregoing are pledged to the Trustee pursuant hereto. 
 Section 6.6 Legal Existence. Each Equityholder shall preserve and maintain (a) its legal existence as an entity in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (b) its qualification to do business in every jurisdiction where the ownership of its properties and the nature of its business require it to be so qualified and where the failure to be so
qualified would have a material adverse effect on the security interest created by this Pledge and Security Agreement in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it; provided, however, that a Change of Control shall not be
deemed a violation of this Section 6.6. 
 Section 6.7 Compliance with Laws. Each Equityholder shall comply with all laws,
and obtain, maintain and comply with all government approvals as shall now or hereafter be necessary under Applicable Law, in each case in connection with the making and performance by such Equityholder of any material provision of this Pledge and
Security Agreement in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it. 
 Section 6.8 Taxes. Each Equityholder shall pay and
discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed on it or on its income or profits or on any of its properties prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, and all lawful claims that, if unpaid, could reasonably be
expected to become a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) upon the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, unless such matters are being challenged by such Equityholder in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and
diligently conducted, so long as (a) appropriate reserves shall have been made therefor and (b) in the case of a charge or claim that has become a Lien, such proceedings conclusively operate to stay such charge or claim, and such
Equityholder will promptly pay or cause to be paid any valid, final judgment enforcing any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim and cause the same to be satisfied of record.

Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, agree to or permit (a) the cancellation or termination of any of the organizational documents of the Issuer, except upon the expiration of the stated term
thereof (but in no event prior to the Final Legal Maturity Date), or (b) any amendment, supplement or modification of, or waiver with respect to, any of the provisions of any of such organizational documents, if any such amendment, supplement,
modification or waiver would result in a material adverse change in respect of the validity, perfection or priority of the pledge of the Issuer Pledged Collateral owned by it pursuant to this Pledge and Security Agreement or the exercise of the
rights by the Trustee of the rights granted to it hereunder in respect thereof. 
 Section 6.10 No Liquidation or Dissolution.
Without the prior written direction by the Trustee pursuant to Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of the Indenture, as applicable, no Equityholder shall take any action to liquidate, dissolve or terminate the Issuer, or to authorize or cause any
such liquidation, dissolution or termination, until all of the Secured Obligations are paid in full. 
 Section 6.11 Monies Held in
Trust. Subject to Section 2.1(c) and Section 6.4, each Equityholder shall hold all monies received by it that constitute Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder (including any payment or other benefit in breach of this
Section 6.11 or Section 6.12) in trust for the Trustee, in order to satisfy the Secured Obligations pursuant to the direction of the Trustee. 
 Section 6.12 No Claims. Subject to Section 6.4, no Equityholder shall claim payment, whether directly or by set-off, lien, counterclaim or otherwise, of any amount that may be or has become due to
such Equityholder from the Issuer (other than Expenses in accordance with Section 3.7(a) of the Indenture) until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, other than if any amount received in respect thereof becomes Issuer Pledged
Collateral or is entitled thereto or to prevent a claim from becoming time-barred. 
 Section 6.13 No Amendment of Issuer
Organizational Documents. Each Equityholder agrees not to amend, waive or modify any provision in the Issuer Organizational Documents in a manner materially adverse to the Noteholders. 
 Section 6.14 Notice to Trustee. Upon any sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance, contribution or granting of any Issuer Pledged Equity by an
Equityholder, such Equityholder shall cause the transferee (and, if any Issuer Pledged Equity is retained by such Equityholder, the Equityholder) to provide the Trustee with executed signature pages to this Pledge and Security Agreement, which shall
set forth the number of limited liability company interests of Issuer Pledged Equity held by the transferee and, if applicable, such Equityholder.

instrument that the Trustee may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce its rights under this Pledge and Security Agreement, including authority to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to such Equityholder representing
any distribution, interest payment or other payment in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same and to sign, complete and deliver all transfers, proxies and letters of
resignation; provided, however, that the Trustee will not exercise its powers under this Section 7.1 unless so instructed by the Trustee or the Noteholders pursuant to and in accordance with the Indenture.

 Section 8.1 Reasonable Care. The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation
of the Issuer Pledged Collateral in its possession if the Issuer Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Trustee accords its own property of the type of which the Issuer Pledged Collateral consists, it
being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Issuer Pledged Collateral, whether or not
the Trustee has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Issuer Pledged Collateral absent its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 ARTICLE IX 
 NO LIABILITY

 Section 9.1 No Liability. Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be deemed to
have assumed any of the liabilities or obligations of any Equityholder as a result of the pledge and security interest granted under or pursuant to this Pledge and Security Agreement. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the
Trustee or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall not be liable for any failure to collect or realize upon the Secured Obligations or any collateral security or guarantee therefor, or any part thereof, or for any delay in so doing
nor shall it be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. 
 ARTICLE X 
 REMEDIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 Section 10.1 Remedies Upon Event of Default. Subject to Section 4.3 of the Indenture and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Trustee shall have
given written notice of such Event of Default to the Equityholders: 
 (a) The Trustee may exercise the power of attorney
described in Section 7.1 with respect to any of the certificates or other instruments delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to the Issuer Pledged Collateral and may sign, complete and deliver all transfers, proxies 

  

 9 








 
and letters of resignation and do all acts and things that the Trustee may in its absolute discretion specify to enable or assist the Trustee to perfect or
improve its security over the Capital Securities, to vest ownership of the Capital Securities in the Trustee or its nominee, to provide that the Trustee is registered as the holder of the Capital Securities, to exercise any rights or powers
attaching to the Capital Securities, to sell the Capital Securities or otherwise to enforce any of the rights of the Trustee under this Pledge and Security Agreement. 
 (b) The Trustee may exercise in respect of the Issuer Pledged Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or
otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law or the UCC as then in effect in any applicable jurisdiction, and the Trustee may also in its sole
discretion, without notice except as specified below or except as required by mandatory provisions of the UCC and other Applicable Law, sell the Issuer Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or at any
of the Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Trustee may deem commercially reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market
price of the Issuer Pledged Collateral at any such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property, sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Equityholder, and each Equityholder hereby waives (to the extent
permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Equityholder agrees that, to the extent notice of sale
shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Equityholder of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Trustee shall not be
obligated to make any sale of Issuer Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may,
without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Trustee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Issuer Pledged Collateral, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale. Each Equityholder
hereby waives any claims against the Trustee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Issuer Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even
if the Trustee accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Issuer Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 
 (c) Each Equityholder recognizes that the Trustee may elect in its sole discretion to sell all or a part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be
obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Issuer Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Equityholder acknowledges that any such private sales may be at
prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and the Equityholders and the Trustee agree that such private sales
shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Trustee has no obligation to engage in public sales or to delay sale of any Issuer Pledged Collateral to permit the Issuer to register the Issuer Pledged Collateral
for a form of public sale thereof requiring registration under the Securities Act. 
  

 10 








 (d) Any cash held by the Trustee as Issuer Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds
received by the Trustee in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, be applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 12.1) by the Trustee first to the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, if any, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Trustee (including the reasonable
fees and out-of-pocket expenses of its counsel), and all reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee in connection therewith, second to the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture and third to each Equityholder or its successors or assigns in respect to its respective Issuer Pledged Collateral as indicated in the signature page hereto (or pursuant to Section 6.14). 
 (e) Each Equityholder agrees that: 
 (i) in any sale of any of the Issuer Pledged Collateral whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection
with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to: 
 (A) avoid any violation of Applicable Law
(including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to
Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Issuer Pledged Collateral); or 
 (B) obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority or official; and 
 (ii) such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner,
nor shall the Trustee be liable or accountable to any Equityholder for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Issuer Pledged Collateral is sold in compliance with any such limitation or restriction. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 PURCHASE OF THE ISSUER PLEDGED
COLLATERAL 
 Section 11.1 Purchase of the Issuer Pledged Collateral. Any Equityholder may, but shall not be required to, bid
on and be a purchaser of the Issuer Pledged Collateral or any part thereof (including any Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder) or any right or interest therein at any sale thereof, whether pursuant to foreclosure, power of sale or
otherwise hereunder and the Trustee may apply the purchase price to the payment of the Secured Obligations secured hereby. Any purchaser of all or any part of the Issuer Pledged Collateral shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the
Issuer Pledged Collateral so purchased, free of the security interests created by this Pledge and Security Agreement.

the amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and the Trustee, and any transfer taxes, in each case payable upon sale of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such
Equityholder, which the Trustee may incur solely in connection with (a) the custody or preservation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, (b) the exercise
or enforcement of any of the rights of the Trustee hereunder against such Equityholder or the Issuer Pledged Collateral of such Equityholder, (c) the failure by such Equityholder to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof or
(d) the administration of this Pledge and Security Agreement in respect of such Equityholder. Any amount payable by an Equityholder pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be payable upon demand and shall constitute Secured Obligations secured
hereby. 
 ARTICLE XIII 
 NO
WAIVER; REMEDIES 
 Section 13.1 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Trustee to exercise, and no
course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Trustee of any right, power or remedy preclude any additional
exercise by the Trustee of such right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are to the fullest extent permitted by law cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. No notice to or demand on any Equityholder in any case
shall entitle such Equityholder to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 ARTICLE XIV

 ARTICLE XVIII 
 SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE
