for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

4.10. Federal, State or Municipal Claims. Such Grantor will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any Collateral with a
value of $5,000,000 or more which constitutes a claim against the U.S. government or any state or local government or any instrumentality or agency thereof, the assignment of which claim is restricted by federal, state or municipal law.

 4.11. No Interference. Such Grantor agrees that it will not interfere with any right, power and remedy of the
Administrative Agent provided for in this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any one
or more of such rights, powers or remedies. 
 4.12. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

4.13. Collateral Access Agreements. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain a Collateral Access Agreement from the lessor of each leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee or consignee with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral with a
value in excess of $1,000,000 is stored or located, which Collateral Access Agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent. Such Grantor shall timely and fully pay and perform its obligations under all
leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or third party warehouse or other location where any Collateral is or may be located subject, however, to such Grantor’s right to contest the validity or amount of such
obligations in accordance with Section 5.04 of the Credit Agreement. 
 4.14. Deposit Account Control
Agreements. Each Grantor will, upon the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, cause each bank or other financial institution in which it maintains (a) a Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) to enter into a Deposit
Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account or (b) other deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) to be notified of the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder and cause each
such bank or other financial institution to acknowledge such notification in writing. In the case of deposits maintained with Lenders, the terms of such letter shall be subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement regarding setoffs.

offices or the location of its records concerning the Collateral, (c) change the type of entity that it is, (d) change its organization identification number, if any, issued by its state of incorporation or other organization, or
(e) change its state of incorporation or organization, in each case, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of such change and any reasonable action requested by the
Administrative Agent in connection therewith has been completed or taken (including any action to continue the perfection of any Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Secured Parties, in any Collateral); provided that any
new location shall be in the continental United States of America. 
 4.16. Updating of Exhibits to the Security
Agreement. Holdings will provide to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with the delivery of the Compliance Certificate as required by Section 5.01(c) of the Credit Agreement, updated versions of the Exhibits to this Security Agreement
(provided that if there have been no changes to any such Exhibits since the previous updating thereof required hereby, Holdings shall indicate that there has been “no change” to the applicable Exhibit(s)). 

ARTICLE V 

REMEDIES 

5.1. [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 5.2. Remedies. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies: 
 (i)
those rights and remedies provided in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; provided that, this Section 5.2(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to an Event of Default; 
 (ii) those rights and remedies available
to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ lien)
when a debtor is in default under a security agreement; 
 (iii) give notice of sole control or any other
instruction under any Deposit Account Control Agreement or and other control agreement with any securities intermediary and take any action therein with respect to such Collateral; 

(iv) without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 8.1 or elsewhere herein), demand or
advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease,
assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to
time with or without notice and may take place at any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem
commercially reasonable; and 

  
 12 









 (v) concurrently with written notice to the applicable Grantor, transfer and
register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger
denominations, exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral
as though the Administrative Agent was the outright owner thereof. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured
Parties, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

 (c) The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law,
upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the Grantor hereby
expressly releases. 
 (d) Until the Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral,
the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. 
 (e) If,
after the Credit Agreement has terminated by its terms and all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations in which no claim has been made), there remain Swap Obligations outstanding, the Required
Secured Parties may exercise the remedies provided in this Section 5.2 upon the occurrence of any event which would allow or require the termination or acceleration of any Swap Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Swap Agreement.

 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Secured Parties shall be required to
(i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of
its rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any
particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral. 
 (g) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative
Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with clause (a) above. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private
sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially
unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The 

  
 13 









 
Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral
to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so. 

5.3. Grantor’s Obligations Upon Default. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor will: 
 (a) assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent the
Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places specified by the Administrative Agent, whether at a Grantor’s premises or elsewhere; 
 (b) permit the Administrative Agent, by the Administrative Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records
relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and
to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Grantor for such use and occupancy; 
 (c) prepare and
file, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to prepare and file, with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other applicable government agency, registration statements, a prospectus and such other documentation in connection with the
Pledged Collateral as the Administrative Agent may request, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and furnish to the Administrative Agent, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to furnish to the Administrative Agent,
any information regarding the Pledged Collateral in such detail as the Administrative Agent may specify; and 
 (d) take, or
cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to take, any and all actions necessary to register or qualify the Pledged Collateral to enable the Administrative Agent to consummate a public sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral. 

5.4. Grant of Intellectual Property License. The Administrative Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use for
non-competitive purposes, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, Trademarks, customer lists and
advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral, and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, such Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Administrative Agent’s benefit. In addition, each Grantor hereby irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent may, following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell any of such Grantor’s Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased such Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in
connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this Security Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any
Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) finish any work in process and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

 ARTICLE VI 
 AUTHORIZATION FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO TAKE CERTAIN ACTION 
 Each
Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to execute on behalf of such Grantor
as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral,
(ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to indorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing
statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, (iv) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral or with securities intermediaries holding Pledged Collateral as may be necessary or advisable to give the
Administrative Agent Control over such Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms hereof, (v) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to enforce payment of the Instruments, Accounts and Receivables in the
name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor, (vi) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided in
Article VII and (vii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted
hereunder or under any other Loan Document), and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any payment made or any documented expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing,
provided that, this authorization shall not relieve any Grantor of any of its obligations under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 PROCEEDS; COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES 

7.1. Lockboxes. Upon request of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
each Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent irrevocable lockbox agreements in the form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which agreements shall be accompanied by an acknowledgment by the bank
where the lockbox is located of the Lien of the Administrative Agent granted hereunder and of irrevocable instructions to wire all amounts collected therein to a special collateral account at the Administrative Agent. 

7.2. Collection of Receivables. The Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, by giving each Grantor written notice, elect to require that the Receivables be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. In such event, each Grantor shall, and shall permit the
Administrative Agent to, promptly notify the Account Debtors or obligors under the Receivables owned by such Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s interest therein and direct such Account Debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts then
or thereafter due under such Receivables directly to the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall thereafter hold in trust for the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties,
all amounts and proceeds received by it with respect to the Receivables and immediately and at all times thereafter deliver to the Administrative Agent all such amounts and proceeds in the same form as so received, whether by cash, check, draft or
otherwise, with any necessary endorsements. The Administrative Agent shall hold and apply funds so received as provided by the terms of Sections 7.3 and 7.4 hereof. 

  
 15 









 7.3. Special Collateral Account. After the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may require all cash proceeds of the Collateral to be deposited in a special non-interest bearing cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent and held there as security for the Secured
Obligations. No Grantor shall have any control whatsoever over such cash collateral account. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and shall, at the direction of the Required Secured
Parties), from time to time, apply the collected balances in such cash collateral account to the payment of the Secured Obligations whether or not the Secured Obligations shall then be due. If all Events of Default have been cured or waived (as
confirmed in writing by the Administrative Agent), all unapplied remaining amounts in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Grantors within three (3) Business Days. 

7.4. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to payment of the
Secured Obligations as provided under Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 8.1. Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be
made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of
any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent
or any Secured Party arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any
valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made
under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or
any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral. 
 8.2. Limitation on Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the
Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any
Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights
pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative
Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition,
(ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be
collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection 

  
 16 









 
remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account
Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or
not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more
professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types
included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as
title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed
return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the
Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative
Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of
not being indicated in this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent
that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8.2. 
 8.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. The Grantors and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to
certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected
to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on
any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so
long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action. 

8.4. Administrative Agent Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, the Administrative Agent may
perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement and the Grantors shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 8.4. The Grantors’ obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand. 

8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants
contained in Sections 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII will cause irreparable injury to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to seek and obtain
specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Security Agreement, that the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the
Grantors. 

  
 17 









 8.6. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

8.7. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any
right or remedy granted under this Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the
Administrative Agent and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made and Letters of Credit which have been terminated, cash-collateralized or back-stopped in a manner
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their reasonable discretion). 
 8.8. Limitation by Law;
Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this
Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not
entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in any this Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or
invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Security Agreement are declared to be
severable. 
 8.9. Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be
effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed
for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable
law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or
performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced,
restored or returned. 
 8.10. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have
the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions
of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

  
 18 









 8.11. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors
contained in this Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement. 
 8.12. Taxes and
Expenses. Any taxes (including income taxes) payable or ruled payable by federal or state authority in respect of this Security Agreement shall be paid by the Grantors, together with interest and penalties, if any. Any and all costs and expenses
incurred by the Grantors in the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by the Grantors. 
 8.13. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of
this Security Agreement. 
 8.14. Termination. This Security Agreement shall continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact
that from time to time there may be no Secured Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms and (ii) all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full
(other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made and Letters of Credit which have been terminated, cash-collateralized or back-stopped in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in
their reasonable discretion) and no commitments of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders which would give rise to any Secured Obligations are outstanding. 
 8.15. Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral. 
 8.16.
CHOICE OF LAW. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS.

 8.17. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY
U.S. FEDERAL OR NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND EACH GRANTOR 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 OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GRANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GRANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A
COURT IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK. 
 8.18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER
HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL 

  
 19 









 
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 SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER. 
 8.19. Indemnity. Each Grantor hereby agrees to
indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs, and expenses of any kind and nature (including all fees,
charges and disbursements of (x) one primary counsel and one additional counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent, (y) one additional counsel for all Lenders (other than the Administrative Agent) and
(z) additional counsel in light of actual or potential conflicts of interest or the availability of different claims or defenses for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with any litigation or preparation
therefor whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way
relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any Collateral (including, without
limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any Grantor, and any claim for Patent, Trademark or Copyright infringement); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
indemnified party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party. 
 8.20. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Security Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page of this Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement. 
 8.21. Joinder of Additional Guarantors. Each Grantor shall cause each Domestic Subsidiary which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex I attached hereto, and
upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Grantor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall
not require the consent of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Security Agreement.

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 Reference is made to the Pledge and Security Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement”; capitalized terms used but
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of April 25, 2012, made by The Chefs’ Warehouse, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the other Grantors party thereto and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity and together with any successors in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). 
 This Joinder Agreement supplements the Security Agreement and is delivered by the undersigned,
[                    ] (the “New Grantor”), pursuant to Section 8.21 of the Security Agreement. The New Grantor hereby
agrees to be bound as a Grantor to the Security Agreement by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Security Agreement on the
date of the Security Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the New Grantor hereby grants and pledges to the Administrative Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of
a Grantor thereunder. The New Grantor hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to the Grantors contained in the Security Agreement. 

Annexed hereto are supplements to each of the exhibits to the Security Agreement and schedules to the Credit Agreement, as applicable,
with respect to the New Grantor. Such supplements shall be deemed to be part of the Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable. 
 This Joinder Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which
when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 







 THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Grantor has caused this Joinder Agreement to
be executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the date first above written.
