 Exhibit 10.2 

GUARANTY 
 THIS GUARANTY
(as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”) is made as of May 11, 2020 by and among each of the Subsidiaries of Robert Half International Inc. (the
“Borrower”) listed on the signature pages hereto (each an “Initial Guarantor”) and those additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower which become parties to this Guaranty by executing a supplement hereto (a
“Guaranty Supplement”) in the form attached hereto as Annex I (such additional Subsidiaries, together with the Initial Guarantors, the “Guarantors”), in favor of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative
Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), for the benefit of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations (as defined below), under the Credit Agreement referred to below. 

WITNESSETH 
 WHEREAS, the
Borrower, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), and the Administrative Agent have entered into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), which Credit Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for extensions of credit and other financial
accommodations to be made by the Lenders to or for the benefit of the Borrower; 
 WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the extensions of
credit by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors (constituting all of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower required to execute this Guaranty pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement) execute and deliver this
Guaranty, whereby each of the Guarantors shall guarantee the payment when due of all Obligations; and 
 WHEREAS, in consideration of the
direct and indirect financial and other support and benefits that the Borrower has provided, and such direct and indirect financial and other support and benefits as the Borrower may in the future provide, to the Guarantors, and in consideration of
the increased ability of each Guarantor that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower to receive funds through contributions to capital, and for each Guarantor to receive funds through intercompany advances or otherwise, from funds provided to the Borrower
pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the flexibility provided by the Credit Agreement for each Guarantor to do so which significantly facilitates the business operations of the Borrower and each Guarantor and in order to induce the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent to enter into the Credit Agreement, and to make the Loans and other financial accommodations to the Borrower and to issue the Letters of Credit described in the Credit Agreement, each of the Guarantors is willing to guarantee
the Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. Definitions. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have, as used herein, the respective
meanings provided for therein. 
 SECTION 2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each of the Guarantors represents and
warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent as of the date of this Guaranty, giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents on the Effective Date, and thereafter on each date as required by
Section 4.02 of the Credit Agreement that: 
 (a) It (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent
the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction) under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and (ii) has all requisite organizational power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and to the extent the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction, is in good standing in, every jurisdiction
where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification. 












 (b) It has the requisite organizational power and authority and legal right to execute and
deliver this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty and the performance of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational actions and, if required, by
equity holders, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor, in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyances,
reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (iii) requirements of
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. 
 (c) Neither the execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty, nor the consummation by it of
the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof, will (i) conflict with the charter or other organizational documents of such Guarantor, (ii) violate in any material respect any applicable
material law, regulation or order binding upon any Guarantor or any of its assets to such Guarantor, (iii) violate or result in a default under any indenture, material instrument or other material agreement binding upon such Guarantor or its
assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Guarantor to which the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries is party or is subject or by which it or its property, except, in the case of this clause
(iii), for any such violations defaults or rights that could not reasonable be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Guarantor. The execution, delivery and
performance by such Guarantor of each of the Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or any other action by any Governmental Authority, except such as have been, or
will be by the time required, obtained or made and are, or will be by the time required, in full force and effect. 
 In addition to the
foregoing, each of the Guarantors covenants that, until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable under the Credit Agreement shall have been paid in full (other than
Obligations expressly stated to survive such payment and termination) and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated (or shall have been cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent) and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, it will, and, if necessary, will cause the Borrower to, fully comply with those covenants and agreements of the Borrower applicable to such Guarantor set forth in the Credit
Agreement. 
 SECTION 3. Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors hereby unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and
severally, the full and punctual payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, including, without limitation, (i) the principal of and interest on each Loan made to the
Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (ii) any obligations of the Borrower to reimburse LC Disbursements (“Reimbursement Obligations”), (iii) all obligations of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary owing to any Lender or
any affiliate of any Lender under any Swap Agreement or Banking Services Agreement and (iv) all other amounts payable by the Borrower or any Subsidiary under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, but in any such case, other than
any Excluded Swap Obligations (all of the foregoing being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations” and the holders from time to time of the Guaranteed Obligations being referred to collectively as the
“Holders of Guaranteed Obligations”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in 

  
 2 













 
this Guaranty, the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not create or include any guarantee by any Loan Party of (or grant of security interest by any Loan Party to support, as
applicable) any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Loan Party for purposes of determining any obligations of any Loan Party. Upon (x) the failure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to pay punctually any such amount or
perform such obligation, and (y) such failure continuing beyond any applicable grace or notice and cure period, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay such amount or perform such obligation at the place and in the
manner specified in the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement or the relevant Loan Document, as the case may be. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable
and unconditional guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection. 
 SECTION 4. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of
each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: 

(A) any extension, renewal, settlement, indulgence, compromise, waiver or release of or with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether (in any such case) by operation of law or otherwise (other than with respect to
any released or discharged Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with any such modification or release), or any failure or omission to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement
relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (B) any
modification or amendment of or supplement to the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any such amendment which may increase the amount
of, or the interest rates applicable to, any of the Obligations guaranteed hereby; 
 (C) any release, surrender, compromise,
settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, any other guaranties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any
other obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any nonperfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(D) any change in the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence, structure or ownership of the
Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any of their respective
assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(E) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Guarantors may have at any time against the Borrower, any
other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in connection with any unrelated transactions; provided that nothing
herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 

  
 3 













 (F) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part
thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against
the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement, any other Loan Document (subject to the limitations
contained herein with respect to Excluded Swap Obligations), or any provision of applicable law, decree, order or regulation of any jurisdiction purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations,
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (G) the failure
of the Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, if any; 

(H) the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, in any proceeding instituted
under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (or any successor statute, the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any other applicable federal,
state, provincial, municipal, local or foreign law relating to such matters; 
 (I) any borrowing or grant of a security
interest by the Borrower, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal, state, provincial, municipal, local or
foreign law relating to such matters; 
 (J) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other
applicable federal, state, provincial, municipal, local or foreign law relating to such matters, of all or any portion of the claims of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations or the Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (K) the failure of any other guarantor to sign or become party to this Guaranty or any amendment,
change, or reaffirmation hereof; or 
 (L) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, any other
guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 4, constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder except as provided in Section 5 or Section 25. 
 SECTION 5.
Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full: Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions. If at any
time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan, any Reimbursement Obligation or any other Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or
otherwise, each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be due and payable in the same currency as such Guaranteed Obligation is denominated, but if currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that such currency (the
“Original Currency”) no longer exists or the relevant Guarantor is not able to make payment in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Guarantor hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in
Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of payment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that each Guarantor takes all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

 SECTION 6. General Waivers; Additional Waivers. 

(A) General Waivers. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand or action on
delinquency, protest, the benefit of any statutes of limitations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any
other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person. 
 (B) Additional Waivers. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, each of the Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives: 

(i) any right it may have to revoke this Guaranty as to future indebtedness or notice of acceptance hereof; 

(ii) (a) notice of acceptance hereof; (b) notice of any loans or other financial accommodations made or extended
under the Loan Documents or the creation or existence of any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject, however, to each Guarantor’s right to make inquiry of Administrative Agent and Holders of
Guaranteed Obligations to ascertain the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time; (d) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of the Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such Guarantor’s risk
hereunder; (e) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instruments among the Loan Documents; (f) notice of any Default or Event of Default; and (g) all other notices (except if such notice is
specifically required to be given to such Guarantor hereunder or under the Loan Documents) and demands to which each Guarantor might otherwise be entitled; 

(iii) its right, if any, to require the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations to institute suit
against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations has or may have against, the other Guarantors or any third party, or against any collateral provided by the other
Guarantors, or any third party; and each Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly
paid or satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions) of the other Guarantors or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the other Guarantors in respect thereof; 

(iv) (a) any rights to assert against the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations any defense
(legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which such Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against the other Guarantors or any other party liable to the Administrative Agent and the other
Holders of Guaranteed Obligations; (b) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency,
validity, or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; (c) any defense such Guarantor has to performance hereunder, and any right such Guarantor has to be exonerated, arising by reason of: the impairment or
suspension of the Administrative Agent’s and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations’ rights or remedies against the other Guarantors; the alteration by the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations of the
Guaranteed Obligations; any discharge of the other Guarantors’ obligations to the Administrative Agent and 

  
 5 













 
the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law as a result of the Administrative Agent’s and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations’ intervention or omission; or
the acceptance by the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations of anything in partial satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (d) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s
liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of
limitations applicable to such Guarantor’s liability hereunder; and 
 (v) any defense arising by reason of or deriving
from (a) any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations; or (b) any election by the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations
under Section 1111(b) of Title 11 of the United States Code entitled “Bankruptcy”, as now and hereafter in effect (or any successor statute), to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its claim against the Guarantors. 

SECTION 7. Subordination of Subrogation. Until satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions, the Guarantors (i) shall have no
right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent now have or may hereafter have against the
Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Holders of Guaranteed
Obligations, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations or the Issuing Bank.
Should any Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably (x) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Guarantor may have to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and (y) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Guaranteed Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the other Holders
of Guaranteed Obligations and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative Agent, the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and their respective
successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 7. 
 SECTION 8.
Contribution with Respect to Guaranteed Obligations. 
 (A) To the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment
under this Guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”) which, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been paid by or
attributable to such Guarantor if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined
immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantors as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions,
such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior
to such Guarantor Payment. 

  
 6 













 (B) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount”
of any Guarantor shall be equal to the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Guarantor over the total liabilities of such Guarantor (including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent
liabilities, calculated, without duplication, assuming each other Guarantor that is also liable for such contingent liability pays its ratable share thereof), giving effect to all payments made by other Guarantors as of such date in a manner to
maximize the amount of such contributions. 
 (C) This Section 8 is intended only to define the relative rights of the
Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this Section 8 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of
this Guaranty. 
 (D) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall
constitute assets of the Guarantor or Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. 
 (E) The rights
of the indemnifying Guarantors against other Guarantors under this Section 8 shall be exercisable upon the satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions. 

SECTION 9. Limitation of Guaranty. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty, the amount guaranteed by each Guarantor
hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform
Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Voidable Transaction Act or similar statute or common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention
of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation, indemnification or contribution which such Guarantor may have under this Guaranty, any other agreement or applicable law shall be taken into account. 

SECTION 10. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower under the Credit
Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts constituting Guaranteed Obligations
otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Guarantors hereunder forthwith
on demand by the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 11. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder
shall be given in the manner prescribed in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement with respect to the Administrative Agent at its notice address therein and with respect to any Guarantor, in care of the Borrower at the address of the Borrower set
forth in the Credit Agreement or such other address as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of such Section 9.01. 

SECTION 12. No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of Guaranteed Obligations in exercising any
right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
provided in this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking Services Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 

  
 7 













 SECTION 13. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that no Guarantor shall have any right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of
the Administrative Agent, and any such assignment in violation of this Section 13 shall be null and void; and in the event of an assignment of any amounts payable under the Credit Agreement, any applicable Swap Agreement, any applicable Banking
Services Agreement or the other Loan Documents in accordance with the respective terms thereof, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness. This Guaranty shall be binding
upon each of the Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns. 
 SECTION 14. Changes in Writing. Other than in connection
with the addition of additional Subsidiaries, which become parties hereto by executing a supplement hereto in substantially the form of Annex I hereto or such other form as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, neither this
Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only in writing signed by each of the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 15. GOVERNING LAW. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

SECTION 16. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; JURY TRIAL; IMMUNITY. 

(A) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME
COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW
OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER TO BRING
PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GUARANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR
ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK. 

(B) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER AND FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO
INTERPOSE ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN SUCH ACTION.

 (C) TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY GUARANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY
IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER FROM SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OF A JUDGMENT, EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE), EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH
IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY. 
 SECTION 17. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have
participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Guaranty. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Guaranty shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Guaranty. 
 SECTION 18.
Taxes, Expenses of Enforcement, etc. 
 (A) Taxes. Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable,
mutatis mutandis, to all payments required to be made by any Guarantor under this Guaranty. 
 (B) Expenses of
Enforcement, Etc. The Guarantors agree to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations for any reasonable and documented costs and
out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of Guaranteed Obligations in connection with the collection and enforcement of
amounts due under the Loan Documents, including without limitation this Guaranty on the terms and subject to the limitations contained in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent agrees to distribute payments received
from any of the Guarantors hereunder to the other Holders of Guaranteed Obligations for application in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 19. Setoff. Subject to any limitations expressly agreed to by any Lender or its Affiliate, as applicable, pursuant to any
Banking Services Agreement or Swap Agreement to which such Lender or Affiliate is a party, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) may, without notice
to any Guarantor and regardless of the acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement toward the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations
(i) any indebtedness due or to become due from such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or the Administrative Agent to any Guarantor, and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to any Guarantor, at any time held by or coming
into the possession of such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) or any of their respective affiliates. 

SECTION 20. Financial Information. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition
of the Borrower and any and all endorsers and/or other Guarantors of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, that diligent
inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that none of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) shall have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to any of them regarding such condition
or any such circumstances. In the event any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to a Guarantor, such Holder of
Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) shall be under no obligation (i) to undertake any investigation not a part of its 

  
 9 













 
regular business routine, (ii) to disclose any information which such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial
finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such information or any other information to such Guarantor. 

SECTION 21. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law. Any provision of this Guaranty held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without
affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 22. Merger. This Guaranty represents the final agreement of each of the Guarantors with respect to the matters contained herein
and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous agreements, or subsequent oral agreements, between the Guarantor and any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent). 

SECTION 23. Headings. Section headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and shall not govern the interpretation
of any provision of this Guaranty. 
 SECTION 24. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is
necessary to convert a sum due from any Guarantor hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively
do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City
office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Guarantor in respect of any sum due hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a
currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so
due in such other currency such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the
amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest
extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount
of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) amounts shared with other Holders
of Guaranteed Obligations as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such other Holder of Guaranteed Obligations under Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement, such Holder of Guaranteed Obligations (including the
Administrative Agent), as the case may be, agrees, by accepting the benefits hereof, to remit such excess to such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 25.
Termination of Guarantors. The obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty shall automatically terminate in accordance with Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 26. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes
to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty or Article X of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, in respect of Specified Swap Obligations
(provided, 

  
 10 













 
however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 26 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its
obligations under this Section 26 or otherwise under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under
this Section 26 shall remain in full force and effect until a discharge of such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor
intends that this Section 26 constitute, and this Section 26 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of
the Commodity Exchange Act. As used herein, “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Specified Swap Obligation, each Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant Guarantee or grant of the
relevant security interest becomes or would become effective with respect to such Specified Swap Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an ECP and can cause another Person to qualify as an ECP at such time by entering into a keepwell under
Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 SECTION 27. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of
this Guaranty by telecopy, e-mailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Guaranty. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Guaranty and the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof
or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures
and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 SECTION 28. California Waivers.
Solely to the extent California law applies, in addition to and not in lieu of any other provisions of this Guaranty, each Guarantor agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, as follows: 

(a) The obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty shall be performed without demand by any Holder of Guaranteed
Obligations and shall be unconditional irrespective of the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, Swap Agreements or Banking Services Agreements, and without regard to any other circumstance which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that by doing so such Guarantor shall be liable
even if the relevant Subsidiary had no liability at the time of execution of the applicable Loan Documents, Swap Agreements or Banking Services Agreements, or thereafter ceases to be liable. Each Guarantor hereby waives any and all benefits and
defenses under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that by doing so such Guarantor’s liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of the Subsidiaries. Each Guarantor hereby waives the benefit of all principles
or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty and agrees that such Guarantor’s obligations shall not be affected by any circumstances, whether or not referred to in this Guaranty
which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of any right of discharge under any and all statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties and any other
rights of sureties and guarantors thereunder. 

  
 11 













 (b) In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, each
Guarantor hereby waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations even though that election of remedies has destroyed or otherwise impaired such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise. Each Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations to exercise, in their sole and
absolute discretion, any right or remedy, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, since it is the intent and purpose of such Guarantor that its obligations under this Guaranty shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under
any and all circumstances. Specifically, and without in any way limiting the foregoing, such Guarantor hereby waives any rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution or reimbursement arising under Sections 2846, 2847, 2848 and 2849 of the
California Civil Code or any other right of recourse to or with respect to any Subsidiary, any constituent of any Subsidiary, any other Person, or the assets or property of any of the foregoing or to any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations
until (i) satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions, (ii) all obligations owed to the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations under the Loan Documents, the Swap Agreements and the Banking Services Agreements have been fully performed,
(iii) the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations have released, transferred or disposed of all their right, title and interest in such collateral or any other security for the Guaranteed Obligations and (iv) there has expired the maximum
possible period thereafter during which any payment made by such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any Subsidiary Guarantor or others to any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations owed to
the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations under the Loan Documents, the Swap Agreements and the Banking Services Agreements could be deemed a preference under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States. In connection with the foregoing, each Guarantor
expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation against any Subsidiary, and each Guarantor hereby waives any rights to enforce any remedy which any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations may have against any Subsidiary and any right to participate in
any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor recognizes that, pursuant to Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure, the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations realization through nonjudicial foreclosure upon any real
property could terminate any right of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations to recover a deficiency judgment against any Subsidiary, thereby terminating subrogation rights which other parties might otherwise have against such Subsidiary. In the
absence of an adequate waiver, such a termination of subrogation rights could create a defense to enforcement of this Guaranty against such parties. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any such defense. 

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
diligence in collecting the Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, protest, all notices with respect to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, Swap Agreement or Banking Services Agreement which may be required by statute, rule of law or
otherwise to preserve the Holders’ of Guaranteed Obligations rights against such Guarantor under this Guaranty, including, but not limited to, notice of acceptance, notice of any amendment of the Loan Documents, any Swap Agreement or any
Banking Services Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure, notice of protest, and notice of the incurring by any Subsidiary of any
obligation or Indebtedness. 
 (d) Without limiting the foregoing, each Guarantor waives (i) all rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Guarantor by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, including any and all rights or defenses such
Guarantor may have by reason of protection afforded to any Subsidiary with respect to any of the obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty by reason of a nonjudicial foreclosure or pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of
California limiting or discharging the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all benefits under (i) California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a (which


  
 12 













 
Section, if such Guarantor had not given this waiver, would otherwise limit such Guarantor’s liability after a nonjudicial foreclosure sale to the difference between the obligations of such
Guarantor under this Article X and the fair market value of the property or interests sold at such nonjudicial foreclosure sale), (ii) California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580b and 580d (which Sections, if such Guarantor had not given
this waiver, would otherwise limit the Holders’ of Guaranteed Obligations right to recover a deficiency judgment with respect to purchase money obligations and after a nonjudicial foreclosure sale, respectively), and (iii) California Code
of Civil Procedure Section 726 (which Section, if such Guarantor had not given this waiver, among other things, would otherwise require the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations to exhaust all of their security before a personal judgment could be
obtained for a deficiency). 
 (e) Likewise, each Guarantor waives (i) any and all rights and defenses available to such
Guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 2899 and 3433 and (ii) any rights or defenses such Guarantor may have with respect to its obligations as a guarantor by reason of any election of remedies by any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations.

 (f) Each Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses that such Guarantor may have because any Subsidiary’s debt
is secured by real property. This means, among other things, that: 
 (i) the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations may collect
from such Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the applicable Subsidiary; and 

(ii) if any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by a Subsidiary: 

(A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if
the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and 
 (B) the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations may collect from such
Guarantor even if the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, have destroyed any rights such Guarantor may have to collect from the Subsidiaries. 

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses such Guarantor may have because any Subsidiary’s debt
evidenced by the Loan Documents, any Swap Agreement or any Banking Services Agreement is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of
the California Code of Civil Procedure. 
 (g) [reserved]. 

(h) The provisions of this Section 28 shall survive any satisfaction and discharge of the Guarantors and the Subsidiary
Guarantors by virtue of any payment, court order or any applicable law, except the satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions.
