 THIS WARRANT
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into by and between GS Acquisition Holdings Corp, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the party set forth on the signature page hereto under

(the “Record Date”); 
 WHEREAS, each holder of Class B Common Stock as of the Record Date has been granted one (1) non-transferable right (a “Right”) for each share of Class B Common Stock owned by such holder as of the Record Date, which Right entitles its holder to subscribe to purchase up to
0.6143676290463690 warrants of the Company (the “Warrants”), at a price of $1.50 per Warrant; 
 WHEREAS, this Agreement
was executed by the Purchaser prior to the Expiration Time (as defined in the Rights Offering Letter); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to this
Agreement, the Purchaser has subscribed to purchase up to the number of Warrants listed on Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscribed Warrants”), which number shall not exceed its pro rata share of the maximum number of
warrants that may be sold upon exercise of all of the Rights (the “Maximum Number of Warrants”). 
 NOW THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby, intending legally to be bound, agree as
follows: 
 Section 1. Authorization, Purchase and Sale; Terms of the Subscribed Warrants. 

A. Authorization of the Subscribed Warrants. The Company has duly authorized the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Warrants to the
Purchaser. 
 B. Purchase and Sale of the Subscribed Warrants. 

(i) The Company, in its sole discretion, may issue any number of warrant sales notices (each a “Sale Notice”) covering any
amount of Warrants, provided that (A) the aggregate number of Warrants sold by the Company pursuant to all Sale Notices does not exceed the Maximum Number of Warrants and (B) each Sale Notice will set forth: (i) the total number of
Warrants that will be sold by the Company pursuant to that Sale Notice; (ii) the number of Warrants to be purchased by each holder, which amount shall be in proportion to each holder’s total subscription to the Warrants pursuant to the
Subscription Agreements (the “Purchased Warrants”) and (iii) the closing date for the sale (a “Closing Date”). 












 (ii) On a Closing Date, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the
Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, the Purchased Warrants set forth in the applicable Sale Notice at a price of $1.50 per warrant (such aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Warrants, the “Purchase Price”), which shall
be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company at least one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the Company’s wiring instructions in the Sale Notice. 

(iii) On a Closing Date, following the payment by the Purchaser of the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by
such other method as may be reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Company, at its option, shall deliver a certificate to the Purchaser evidencing the Purchased Warrants purchased on such Closing Date duly registered in the Purchaser’s name
or effect such delivery in book-entry form. 
 C. Terms of the Subscribed Warrants. 

(i) Each Subscribed Warrant shall have the terms set forth in a Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) to be entered
into by the Company and a warrant agent, which Warrant Agreement shall also govern the terms for the warrants to be sold in the Company’s proposed initial public offering (the “Public Offering”). All Subscribed Warrants will be
subject to the same Warrant Agreement and will have the same terms. 
 (ii) At the time of, or prior to, the closing of the Public
Offering, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will grant certain registration rights to the Purchaser relating to the

agreements contemplated hereby, (ii) transfer restrictions under federal and state securities laws, and (iii) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Purchaser.

Section 3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. As a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement
and issue and sell the Purchased Warrants to the Purchaser, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company (which representations and warranties shall survive the Closing Date) that: 

A. Organization and Requisite Authority. The Purchaser possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 B. Authorization; No Breach. 

(i) This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to

 (ii) The execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of
and compliance with the terms hereof by the Purchaser does not and shall not as of each Closing Date conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement, instrument, order, judgement or decree
to which the Purchaser is subject. 
 C. Investment Representations. 

(i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Purchased Warrants and, upon exercise of the Purchased Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise
(collectively, the “Securities”) for the Purchaser’s own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof. 

(ii) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 
 (iii) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered
and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance
with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities. 

(iv) The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the
meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act. 
 (v) The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business,
finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and
directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision
with respect to the acquisition of the Securities. 
 (vi) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any
other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed
the merits of the offering of the Securities. 
 (vii) The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not
being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) in a transaction registered thereunder or 

  
 4 













 
(2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any
obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard, the Purchaser understands that the Securities and Exchange Commission
has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after a Business Combination (as defined in the Warrant Agreement), are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities
Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements
of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 

(viii) The Purchaser understands that the Warrants will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND
MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE. IN ADDITION, SUBJECT TO ANY
ADDITIONAL LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER DESCRIBED IN THE LETTER AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG GS ACQUISITION HOLDINGS CORP (THE “COMPANY”), GS DC SPONSOR I LLC AND THE OTHER PARTIES THERETO, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
TRANSFERRED PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DATE UPON WHICH THE COMPANY COMPLETES ITS INITIAL BUSINESS COMBINATION (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3.2 OF THE WARRANT AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN) EXCEPT TO A PERMITTED TRANSFEREE (AS
DEFINED IN SECTION 2.6(H) OF THE WARRANT AGREEMENT) WHO AGREES IN WRITING WITH THE COMPANY TO BE SUBJECT TO SUCH TRANSFER PROVISIONS. 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY AND SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK OF THE COMPANY ISSUED UPON EXERCISE OF SUCH SECURITIES SHALL BE
ENTITLED TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS UNDER A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT TO BE EXECUTED BY THE COMPANY. 
 (ix) The Purchaser has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated with investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time.
