following additional actions with respect to the Collateral:

Pledgor whereby or with respect to which the Administrative Agent may obtain “control” thereof within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC (or under any provision of the UCC as same may be amended or supplemented from time to time,
or under the laws of any relevant State other than the State of New York), such Pledgor shall take all actions as may be requested from time to time by the Administrative Agent so that “control” of such Collateral is obtained and at all
times held by the Administrative Agent;

statements (on appropriate forms) under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the various relevant States, covering all Collateral hereunder (with the form of such financing statements to be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), to be
filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Administrative Agent’s security interest in all Investment Property constituting Collateral and other Collateral which can be perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in
each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant States, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the UCC) is so perfected; and 

(iii) each Pledgor shall cause the Pledge to be accepted by each Luxembourg Issuer , and by its signature to this

3.3 Subsequently Acquired Collateral. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, dividend or otherwise) any additional Collateral
at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Pledgor will forthwith thereafter take (or cause to be taken) all action with respect to such Collateral in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, and will
deliver to the Administrative Agent all information and other items required to be provided under Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement with respect thereto within the time periods specified therein.

 5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. Unless and until there shall have
occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all voting and other rights attaching to any and all Pledged Securities owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof,
provided that no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken which would violate, result in breach of any covenant contained in, or be inconsistent with, any of the terms of this Agreement, the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or which would have the effect of impairing the value of the Collateral or any part thereof or the position or interests of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party therein. All such rights of a
Pledgor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whereupon Section 7 hereof shall become applicable. 

6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all cash
dividends, distributions or other amounts payable in respect of the Pledged Securities shall be paid to the respective Pledgor, provided that all dividends, distributions or other amounts payable in respect of the Pledged Securities which are
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to represent in whole or in part a liquidating or other distribution in return of capital not permitted by the Credit Agreement shall be paid, to the extent so determined to represent an
extraordinary, liquidating or other distribution in return of capital not permitted by the Credit Agreement, to the Administrative Agent and retained by it as part of the Collateral (unless such cash dividends or distributions are applied to repay
the Obligations pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement). The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral: 

(i) all other or additional stock, notes, membership interests, partnership interests or other securities or property
(other than cash) paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Collateral;

partnership interests or other securities or property (including cash) which may be paid in respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate reorganization.

 Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall limit or restrict in any way the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the proceeds of
the Collateral in any form in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments which are received by the respective Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 or Section 7 shall be
received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any
necessary endorsement).

 7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. (a) If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its
rights in respect of the Collateral, including, without limitation, all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor upon default under the UCC, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise any or all of the
following rights, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable: 
 (i) to receive all amounts
payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable under Section 6 to such Pledgor, 
 (ii) to transfer
all or any part of the Collateral into the Administrative Agent’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees; 

(iii) to vote all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent) and
give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Administrative Agent the
proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so); 
 (iv) to set off any and
all Collateral against any and all Obligations, and to withdraw any and all cash or other Collateral from any and all Borrowing Base Accounts and Collateral Accounts and to apply such cash and other Collateral to the payment of any and all
Obligations; and 
 (v) at any time or from time to time but subject to the provisions of the UCC to sell, assign
and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or
adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on
such terms as the Administrative Agent in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to such Pledgor. The Administrative Agent shall not be
obligated to make such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property so sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor,
and each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the full extent permitted by law any right or equity redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other
security for the Obligations or otherwise, and all rights, if any, of stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. At any such sale, unless prohibited by
applicable law, the Administrative Agent on behalf of all Secured Parties (or certain of them) may bid for and purchase (by bidding in Obligations or otherwise) all or any part of the Collateral so

  

 9 








 
sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral
or for any delay in so doing nor shall it be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto. 
 8.
REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each right, power and remedy of the Administrative Agent provided for in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent
and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of all such other rights, powers or
remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. Unless otherwise required by the Loan Documents, no notice to or
demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to any other further action
in any circumstances without demand or notice. This Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent and no other Secured Party shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize
upon the security to be granted hereby. 
 9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All moneys collected by the
Administrative Agent upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, together with all other moneys received by the Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be applied in accordance with Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. 

(b) It is understood that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between (x) the
amount of the Obligations for which it is liable directly or as a Guarantor that are satisfied with proceeds of the Collateral and (y) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Obligations. 

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether by virtue of the
power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Administrative Agent shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be
obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof. 

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the
other Secured Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising in connection with any amendment, waiver or modification to this Agreement and the administrator thereof and the

  

 10 








 
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) growing out of or resulting from the exercise by the Administrative
Agent of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Loan Document except, with respect to clause (i) above, for those arising from (x) such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or (y) a claim
brought by a Pledgor against such Person for breach in bad faith of such Person’s obligations hereunder, in each case if such Pledgor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable, in the absence of (x) gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part or (y) a claim brought by a Pledgor against it for breach in bad faith of its
obligations hereunder, in each case if such Pledgor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than
to account for moneys or other property actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to
make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. 

12. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER OF ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Administrative Agent in
executing and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or
appropriate and wherever required or permitted by law in order to perfect and preserve the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral hereunder and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file financing statements and
amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional
conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require or deem advisable to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Administrative Agent its rights,
powers and remedies hereunder or thereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, each Pledgor agrees that with respect to any Securities pledged by it hereunder that are issued by a Luxembourg Issuer, such Pledgor at its own expense will promptly
(i) procure the registration of the Pledge in the name of the Administrative Agent in the shareholders’ register of such Luxembourg Issuer in accordance with article 5.(2) c) of the Luxembourg Act dated August 5, 2005 relating to
financial collateral arrangements and (ii) provide to the Administrative Agent a written certification that such registration has been made. 

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent, such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and
stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute
any instrument which the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Article IX of
the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in this Agreement and the Administrative Agent, as provided for by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall itself perform or
comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the rate then in effect in respect of
the Base Rate Loans, shall be payable by such Pledgor to the Administrative Agent on demand and shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral. 

14. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge
or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein, except as otherwise allowed under the Credit Agreement.

created by this Agreement; 
 (ii) it has full power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Collateral
pledged by it pursuant to this Agreement;

acquired and are fully paid for and are duly and validly pledged hereunder; 
 (x) it is not in default in the
payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made under any partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement to which such Pledgor is a party, and such Pledgor is not in violation of any other
material provisions of any partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement to which such Pledgor is a party, or otherwise in default or violation thereunder, no Partnership Interest or Membership Interest is subject to any defense,

(xi) the pledge and assignment of the Partnership Interests and the Membership Interests pursuant to this Agreement,
together with the relevant filings, consents or recordings (which filings, consents and recordings have been made or obtained), creates a valid, perfected and continuing first priority security interest in such Partnership Interests and Membership

 14 








 16. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under
this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever,
including, without limitation: 
 (i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of, or addition or
supplement to or deletion from any of the Loan Documents, or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof, 

(ii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or
instrument or this Agreement; 
 (iii) any furnishing of any additional security to the Administrative Agent or
its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Administrative Agent or its assignee; 

(iv) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity
or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or 
 (v) any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Pledgor or any Subsidiary of such Pledgor or any Affiliated Investor, or any action taken with respect to this
Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. 

17. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date (as defined below), this Agreement shall terminate (provided
that all indemnities set forth herein and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination) and the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the Pledgors, will execute
and deliver to the Pledgors a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement as provided above, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgors (without recourse and without any
representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as may be in the possession of the Administrative Agent and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement, together with any moneys at the time held by
the Administrative Agent hereunder and, with respect to any Collateral consisting of an Uncertificated Security, a Partnership Interest or a Membership Interest (other than an Uncertificated Security, Partnership Interest or Membership Interest
credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation or Securities Intermediary), a termination of the agreement relating thereto executed and delivered by the issuer of such Uncertificated Security pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(ii) or by the
respective partnership or limited liability company pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(iv)(2). As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which all of the Commitments have been terminated, no Note under the
Credit Agreement is unpaid and all Loans have been paid in full. 
  

 15 








 (b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of in
connection with a sale or other disposition permitted by Section 7.05 of the Credit Agreement or is otherwise released at the direction of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement), and
the proceeds of such sale or other disposition or from such release are applied in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement to the extent required to be so applied, the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the respective
Pledgor, will release such Collateral from this Agreement, duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold, disposed of or
released and as may be in possession of the Administrative Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. 

(c) At any time that any Pledgor desires that Collateral be released as provided in the foregoing Section 18(a) or (b), it shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an officer stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to Section 18(a) or (b). The Administrative Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any
Secured Party as the result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Administrative Agent in the absence of gross negligence and willful misconduct believes to be in accordance with) this Section 18. 

18. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, telecopier,
facsimile or cable communication) and shall be delivered, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, faxed, cabled, or mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid): 

(i) if to any Pledgor, at its address set forth opposite its signature below; 

(ii) if to the Administrative Agent, at its address set forth on Schedule 10.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

or at such other address as shall have been furnished in writing by any Person described above to the party required to give notice hereunder.

 19. WAIVER; AMENDMENT. None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied
in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by the Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement) and each Pledgor affected
thereby. 
 20. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOT BOUND. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Administrative
Agent or any other Secured Party liable as a general partner or limited partner of any Pledged Partnership or as a member of any Pledged LLC, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except
as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a general partner or limited partner of any Pledged Partnership or of a member of any Pledged LLC. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless
the Administrative Agent shall become the absolute owner of a Partnership Interest or a Membership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture or membership agreement among the
Administrative Agent, any other Secured Party and/or a Pledgor. 
  

 16 








 (b) The Administrative Agent shall have only those powers set forth herein and shall assume
none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a general partner or limited partner of any Pledged Partnership or of a member of any Pledged LLC or of a Pledgor. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of a Pledgor as a result of the collateral
assignment hereby effected. 
 (d) The acceptance by the Administrative Agent of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers,
privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Administrative Agent to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or
thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral. 

21. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full
force and effect, subject to release and/or termination as set forth in Section 18, (ii) be binding upon each Pledgor, its successors and assigns; provided that no Pledgor shall assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, ), and (iii) inure, together with
the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. The headings of the several sections and subsections in
this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or define the meaning hereof. 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. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall prove to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement which shall remain binding on all parties hereto.

 22. GOVERNING LAW, ETC. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE SECURED PARTIES AND OF THE
UNDERSIGNED HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
may be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement,
each Pledgor hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Pledgor further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the
aforementioned courts, in the manner provided for in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement, to each Pledgor at its address set forth opposite its signature below. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit 
  

 17 








 
on the judgment or in any other manner provided law. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any of the Secured Parties to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal
proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Pledgor in any other jurisdiction. 
 (b) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably waives
any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to in clause
(a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 

(c) EACH PLEDGOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 

23. ADDITIONAL PLEDGORS. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the REIT that is required to become a party to this
Agreement pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall become a Pledgor hereunder by executing a joinder agreement, in the form attached hereto as Annex F. 

24. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 

25. CONTRIBUTION. At any time a payment is made by any Pledgor (other than a Borrower) (each, a “Subsidiary
Pledgor”) in respect of the Obligations from the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Pledgor (each, a “Relevant Payment”), the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Pledgor
hereunder against each other such Subsidiary Pledgor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Pledgor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a Relevant
Payment is made. At any time that a Relevant Payment is made by a Subsidiary Pledgor that results in the aggregate payments made by such Subsidiary Pledgor hereunder in respect of the Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment
exceeding such Subsidiary Pledgor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Subsidiary Pledgors hereunder in respect of the Obligations from the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of Collateral
owned by the Subsidiary Pledgors to and including the date of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Subsidiary Pledgor shall have a right of contribution against each other Subsidiary Pledgor
who either has not made any payments or has made (or whose Collateral has been used to make) payments hereunder in respect of the Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount less than such other Subsidiary
Pledgor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Subsidiary Pledgors hereunder in respect of the Obligations from the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of
Collateral owned by the Subsidiary Pledgors (the 
  

 18 








 
aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such
Subsidiary Pledgor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Subsidiary Pledgors multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Subsidiary Pledgor. A Subsidiary Pledgor’s right of contribution
pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to adjustment to the time of any subsequent computation; provided, that no Subsidiary Pledgor may take any action to enforce such right until the
Termination Date has occurred, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Subsidiary Pledgor’s right of contribution arising pursuant to this Agreement against any other Subsidiary Pledgor shall be expressly junior
and subordinate to such other Subsidiary Pledgor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Agreement. As used in this Section 26: (i) each Subsidiary Pledgor’s
“Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Pledgor by (y) the aggregate Adjusted Net Worth of all Subsidiary Pledgors;
(ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Pledgor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Pledgor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each
Subsidiary Pledgor shall mean the amount by which the fair salable value of such Subsidiary Pledgor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without
giving effect to any obligations arising under this Agreement, any Guaranteed Obligations under, and as defined in, the Guaranty) on such date. All parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to
this Section 26 or any other Loan Document, each Subsidiary Pledgor who makes (or whose Collateral has been used to make) any payment in respect of the Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Subsidiary
Pledgor in respect of such payment. Each of the Subsidiary Pledgors recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each
Subsidiary Pledgor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Subsidiary Pledgor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Subsidiary Pledgor would remain solvent, in the determination of the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders. 
 26. LEGAL NAMES; TYPE OF ORGANIZATION (AND WHETHER A REGISTERED ORGANIZATION); JURISDICTION OF
ORGANIZATION; LOCATION; ORGANIZATIONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS; CHANGES THERETO; ETC. No Pledgor shall change its legal name, its type of organization or its status as a Registered Organization (in the case of a Registered Organization), as the
case may be, its jurisdiction of organization, its Location, or its organizational identification number (if any), except that any such changes shall be permitted (so long as not in violation of the applicable requirements of the Loan Documents and
so long as same do not involve (x) a Registered Organization ceasing to constitute same or (y) any Pledgor changing its jurisdiction of organization or Location from the United States or a State thereof to a jurisdiction of organization or
Location, as the case may be, outside the United States or a State thereof) if (i) it shall have given to the Administrative Agent not less than 10 days’ prior written notice of each change to its legal name, its type of organization,
whether or not it is a Registered Organization, its jurisdiction of organization, its Location and its organizational identification number (if any), and (ii) in connection with the respective change or changes, it shall have taken all action
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to maintain the security interests of the Administrative Agent in the 

 

 19 








 
Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. In addition, to the extent that any Pledgor does not have an organizational identification
number on the date hereof and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall promptly thereafter deliver a written notification to the Administrative Agent of such organizational identification number and shall take all actions reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to maintain the security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby fully perfected and in full force and effect. 

27. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS RELATING TO COLFIN FRB INVESTOR, LLC PLEDGED MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS. The Administrative Agent hereby
acknowledges that (i) ColFin FRB Investor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ColFin FRB”), is a party to that certain Shareholders Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2010 (the “First Republic Bank
Shareholders Agreement”), among First Republic Bank ((f/k/a Sequoia Acquisition, Inc.) (“First Republic Bank”), ColFin FRB and the other shareholders of First Republic Bank party thereto and (ii) the First Republic
Bank Shareholders Agreement may contain certain restrictions on the ability of the Administrative Agent to foreclose upon or otherwise transfer the membership interests of ColFin FRB pledged to the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

28. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement which 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 not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 29. HEADINGS DESCRIPTIVE. The headings of the several Sections of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Pledgor and the Administrative Agent have caused this Agreement to
be executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.

 ANNEX E 

Form of Agreement Regarding Uncertificated Securities, 

Membership Interests and Partnership Interests. 

AGREEMENT (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of [ , 20
], among the undersigned pledgor (the “Pledgor”), BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., not in its individual capacity but solely as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”), and [ ], as the issuer of the Uncertificated Securities, Membership Interests and/or Partnership Interests (each as defined below) (the “Issuer”). 

W I T N E S S E T H : 

WHEREAS, the Pledgor, certain of its affiliates and the Administrative Agent have entered into a Pledge and Security
Agreement, dated as of September 16, 2010 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge and Security
Agreement”),1 under which, among other things, in
order to secure the payment of the Obligations, the Pledgor has pledged or will pledge to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grant a security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties in, all of the right, title and interest of the Pledgor in and to any and all [Uncertificated Securities] [Partnership Interests] [Membership Interests], from time to time by the Issuer, whether now existing or hereafter from time to
time acquired by the Pledgor (with all of such [Uncertificated Securities] [Partnership Interests] [Membership Interests] being herein collectively called the “Issuer Pledged Interests”); and 

WHEREAS, the Pledgor desires the Issuer to enter into this Agreement in order to perfect the security interest of the Administrative
Agent under the Pledge and Security Agreement in the Issuer Pledged Interests, to vest in the Administrative Agent control of the Issuer Pledge Interests and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement; 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
