 PARENT BOARD
COMPOSITION

of the Parent Board as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) subject to Section 2.2(e) below, Prakash Melwani or such other individual as the Stockholders may request prior to the Effective Time that (x) is reasonably
acceptable to Parent and (y) otherwise meets the requirements of a Stockholder Designee as set forth in Section 2.2(e) hereof (the “Initial Designee”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any vacancy exists on the
Parent Board immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent may elect to fill the vacancy through the appointment of the Initial Designee in lieu of increasing the size of the Parent Board. 

Section 2.2 Composition of Parent Board following the Effective Time. 

(a) Following the Effective Time, subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.2 (including Section 2.2(e)), at each annual or
special meeting of the stockholders of Parent at which directors are to be elected to the Parent Board, Parent will nominate and use its reasonable best efforts (which shall, subject to applicable Laws, include the inclusion in any proxy statement
prepared, used, delivered or publicly filed by Parent to solicit the vote of its stockholders in connection with any such meeting the recommendation of the Parent Board that stockholders of Parent vote in favor of the slate of directors, including
the Pinnacle Designee) to cause the stockholders of Parent to elect to the Parent Board a slate of directors which includes, prior to the Termination Date, the Pinnacle Designee. 

(b) From the Effective Time until the Termination Date, the Stockholders shall provide Parent with its designee for the Pinnacle Designee,
together with all information about the proposed Pinnacle Designee as shall be reasonably requested by Parent Board or any nominating committee thereof (“Information”), within 30 days of receipt of a written request from Parent for
such Information, but in any event prior to Parent’s deadline for inclusion of such Information in a proxy statement for a meeting of stockholders. If the Stockholders fail to designate the Pinnacle Designee to stand for election as a member of
the Parent Board at such 

  
 5 








 
meeting prior to such time, then Parent shall have the right, in lieu of the Stockholders, to nominate to stand for election as a member of the Parent Board, in accordance with the Constituent
Documents of Parent, such individual that the Stockholders so failed to designate. 
 (c) Subject to Section 2.2(b) and
Section 2.2(e), from the Effective Time until the Termination Date, in the event of the death, disability, removal or resignation of the Stockholders Director, the Parent Board will promptly appoint as a replacement Stockholders Director, the
Pinnacle Designee designated by the Stockholders to fill the resulting vacancy, and such individual shall then be deemed the Stockholders Director for all purposes hereunder; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein (but subject to, and without limitation of, the immediately following proviso), without limiting the rights of the Stockholders under this Section 2.2 with respect to subsequent annual or special meetings of the stockholders of
Parent at which directors are to be elected to the Parent Board, neither Parent nor the Parent Board shall be under any obligation to appoint the Stockholders Director to the Parent Board in the event of the failure of the Pinnacle Designee to be
elected to the Parent Board at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of Parent at which the Pinnacle Designee stood for election but was nevertheless not elected; provided, that in the event the Pinnacle Designee is not
elected to the Parent Board then, subject to Section 2.2(e), Parent shall appoint a replacement Pinnacle Designee to the Parent Board. 

(d) On the Termination Date, or as promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable, the Stockholders shall cause the Stockholders Director to
resign and shall have no further rights to appoint a Pinnacle Designee. Prior to appointment or election to the Parent Board, the Pinnacle Designee shall execute an agreement providing for such designee’s resignation from the Parent Board in
the event the Stockholders no longer have a right to designate a Pinnacle Designee. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article
II, the Stockholders will not be entitled to designate a Pinnacle Designee to the Parent Board pursuant to this Article II, and the Parent Board shall not be required to take any actions with respect to the Pinnacle Designee, in the event the Parent
Board reasonably determines that (a) the election of such Pinnacle Designee to the Parent Board would cause Parent to not be in compliance with applicable Laws, (b) such Pinnacle Designee has been involved in any of the events enumerated
in Item 2(d) or (e) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act or Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act or is subject to any order, decree or judgment of any Governmental Entity prohibiting service as a director of any
public company or (c) such Pinnacle Designee is not reasonably acceptable to the Parent Board or any nominating committee thereof, including because such Pinnacle Designee serves as an officer or director of any Person directly competing with
the business of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. In any such case described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Stockholders will withdraw the designation of such proposed Pinnacle Designee and, so long
as no Termination Date has occurred, be permitted to designate a replacement therefor (which replacement Pinnacle Designee will also be subject to the requirements of this Section 2.2(e)).

 ARTICLE III 

COVENANTS 

Section 3.1 Restrictions on Transfers. 

(a) Requirements for any Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a Stockholder shall not
Transfer any Covered Parent Shares (i) unless such Transfer is in accordance with all applicable Laws and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) in one or more transactions in which, to such Stockholder’s
knowledge, any Person or Group (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), after giving effect to such Transfer, would Beneficially Own five percent (5%) or more of the Total Voting Power or the Total Economic Interest;
provided, that the restriction in this clause (ii) shall not apply to Transfers (x) effected solely through a bona fide underwritten and widely-distributed public offering pursuant to an exercise of the registration rights provided
in the Registration Rights Agreement or (y) permitted under Section 3.1(b). 
 (b) Permitted Transfers. A Stockholder shall
be entitled to Transfer any Covered Parent Shares at any time (i) to a Permitted Transferee of the transferring Stockholder, so long as such transferee, in connection with such Transfer, evidences in writing reasonably satisfactory to Parent
such transferee’s agreement to be bound by and subject to the terms and provisions hereof to the same effect as such transferring Stockholder, and upon such transfer to be deemed a Stockholder hereunder, or (ii) if such Transfer is solely
to tender into a tender or exchange offer commenced by a third party (for the avoidance of doubt, not in violation of this Agreement) or by Parent; provided, that with respect to an unsolicited tender or exchange offer commenced by a
third party, such Transfer shall be permitted only if the Parent Board has affirmatively publicly recommended to Parent’s stockholders that such stockholders tender into such offer and has not publicly withdrawn or changed such recommendation.

 (c) Lock-Up. 

(i) No Stockholder shall Transfer any Covered Parent Shares during the period from the Effective Time to the date that is 90
days after the Effective Time, unless such Transfer is made in accordance with Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(b). 
 (ii) From and
after the date that is 90 days following the Effective Time, subject to compliance with Section 3.1(a), as applicable, a Stockholder shall be entitled to Transfer any Covered Parent Shares (w) in accordance with Section 3.1(b),
(y) pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (z) or to any other Person. 
 (d) Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of
Covered Parent Shares in violation of this Section 3.1 shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, be null and void ab initio, and Parent shall not, and shall instruct its transfer agent and other third parties not to, record or
recognize any such purported transaction on the share register of Parent. 

  
 7 








 (e) With respect to any Stockholder, any certificates for Covered Parent Shares shall bear a
legend or legends (and appropriate comparable notations or other arrangements will be made with respect to any uncertificated shares) referencing restrictions on Transfer, which legend shall state in substance: 

“The securities evidenced by this certificate may not be offered or sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of
except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), (ii) to the extent applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any similar rule
under the Securities Act relating to the disposition of securities), or (iii) pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The securities evidenced by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transfer
set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of May 12, 2014, by and among Parent and certain other parties thereto (a copy of which is on file with the Secretary of Parent).” 

(f) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(e), the holder of any certificate(s) for Covered Parent Shares shall be entitled to receive from Parent
new certificates for a like number of shares of Parent Common Stock not bearing such legend (or the elimination or termination of such notations or arrangements) upon the request of such holder (i) at such time as such restrictions are no
longer applicable and (ii) with respect to the restriction on Transfer of such shares of Parent Common Stock under the Securities Act or any other foreign or state securities Laws, unless such shares of Parent Common Stock are sold pursuant to
an effective registration statement, subject to delivery of an opinion of counsel to such holder, which opinion is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Parent and its counsel, that the restriction referenced in such legend (or such
notations or arrangements) is no longer required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act or any such other applicable foreign or state securities Laws. 

(g) Without limiting any other provision of this Article III, prior to any Transfer of Covered Parent Shares pursuant to
Section 3.1(c)(ii)(z), the Stockholder will discuss with Parent their contemplated plans for the orderly disposition of Covered Parent Shares by such Stockholder; provided, that the foregoing shall not affect any Stockholder’s ability to
Transfer any Covered Parent Shares, which shall be in such Stockholder’s sole and absolute discretion so long as in compliance with this Agreement. 

Section 3.2 Standstill. During the Standstill Period, each Stockholder agrees that such Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its
Restricted Affiliates and its and their Representatives acting at its or their direction or on its or their behalf (such Stockholders, Restricted Affiliates and Representatives acting in such manner, being the “Restricted Persons”)
not to, in each case, whether directly or indirectly, (i) acquire, agree to acquire, propose or offer to acquire, or facilitate the acquisition or ownership of, shares of Parent Common Stock, or Securities of Parent that are convertible,
exchangeable or exercisable into shares of Parent Common Stock, other than as a result of any stock split, stock dividend or subdivision of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) deposit any Covered Parent Shares into a voting trust or similar
Contract or subject any Covered Parent Shares to any voting agreement, pooling arrangement or similar arrangement or other Contract (other than solely between or among the Stockholders), or grant any proxy with respect to any Covered Parent Shares

enter into, or facilitate any merger, business combination, recapitalization, restructuring, change in control transaction or other similar extraordinary transaction involving Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) make, or in any way

 8 








 
proxy rules of the SEC) to vote, or advise or knowingly influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any Securities of Parent (other than to vote as recommended by the Parent Board),
(v) call, or seek to call, a meeting of the stockholders of Parent or initiate any stockholder proposal for action by stockholders of Parent, (vi) form, join or in any way participate in a Group (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the
Exchange Act) with respect to any Securities of Parent, (vii) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek to control or influence the management or the policies of Parent (provided, that this clause (vii) shall in no way
limit the activities of the Stockholders Director taken in good faith solely at meetings of the Parent Board or any committee thereof), (viii) publicly disclose any intention, plan, arrangement or other Contract prohibited by, or inconsistent
with, the foregoing or (ix) advise or knowingly assist or encourage or enter into any discussions, negotiations, agreements, or arrangements or other Contracts with any other Persons in connection with the foregoing. The Stockholders further
agree that, during the Standstill Period, the Stockholders shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause their respective Restricted Persons not to, directly or indirectly (a) request to Parent to amend or waive any provision of this
Section 3.2 (including this sentence) or (b) take any action that would reasonably be expected to require Parent to make a public announcement regarding the possibility of a business combination, merger or other type of transaction or

distribution, or any change in the Parent Common Stock or other Securities of Parent by reason of any recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange of shares or similar transaction, the term “Covered Parent Shares” shall be
deemed to refer to and include all such stock dividends and distributions and any Securities into which or for which any or all of such shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction. 

Section 3.4 Voting of Covered Parent Shares. During the Standstill Period, each Stockholder agrees to cause all of its Covered
Parent Shares to be voted by proxy (returned sufficiently in advance of the deadline for proxy voting for Parent to have the reasonable opportunity to verify receipt) mailed to the stockholders of Parent in connection with the solicitation of any
proxy: (x) in favor of all those persons nominated to serve as directors of Parent by the Parent Board or any nominating committee thereof, (y) in favor of the removal of the Stockholders Director as and when contemplated by
Section 2.2(d) and (z) with respect to any other action, proposal or other matter to be voted upon by the stockholders of Parent, in accordance with the recommendation of the Parent Board (but only so long as such recommendation is not
inconsistent with the rights of the Stockholders under this Agreement).

persons serving similar functions), members, agents, employees, partners, attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors (“Representatives”) may have with Parent or its Subsidiaries or other Persons, each of the
Stockholders hereby agrees that all Confidential Information with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries and its and their respective businesses, finances and operations shall be kept confidential by such Stockholder and its Representatives, shall
not be disclosed by any such Person in any manner whatsoever, except as permitted by this Section 6.1(a) and shall not be used for any purpose other than as expressly permitted by this Agreement. Any Confidential Information may be disclosed:

 (i) by a Stockholder to its Representatives, in each case, solely if and to the extent any such Representative needs to
be provided such Confidential Information to assist such Stockholder in evaluating or reviewing its investment in Parent, including in connection with the disposition thereof, and each such Representative shall be deemed to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 6.1(a) and such Stockholder shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 6.1(a) by any such Representative; 

(ii) by a Stockholder or any of its Representatives to the extent Parent consents in writing; 

(iii) by a Stockholder or any of its Representatives to a potential transferee (so long as such Transfer is permitted
hereunder); provided, that such transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.1 (or a confidentiality agreement with Parent which has restrictions substantially similar to this Section 6.1) and such Stockholder shall be
responsible for any breach of this Section 6.1 (or such confidentiality agreement) by any such transferee and, in any case, such Stockholder shall remain liable for any breach of any such provisions by such transferee; or 

(iv) by a Stockholder or Representatives to the extent that such Stockholder or Representative has received advice from its
counsel (including in-house counsel) that it is legally compelled to do so or is required to do so to comply with applicable Law or legal process or any request by or from Governmental Entity; provided, that, prior to making such disclosure,
such Person uses reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information to the extent permitted by applicable Law, including, to the extent reasonably practicable and permitted by applicable Law, (A) consulting
with Parent regarding such disclosure and (B) if reasonably requested by Parent, assisting Parent in seeking a protective order to limit the 

  
 12 








 
scope of or prevent the requested disclosure; provided, further, that such Stockholder or Representative uses reasonable best efforts to disclose only that portion of the
Confidential Information as is requested by the applicable Governmental Entity or as is, based on the advice of its counsel (including in-house counsel), legally required or compelled. 

(b) Each Stockholder agrees that, without limiting the Stockholders Director’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law but subject to
Section 6.1(a) above and Section 7.17, each of the parties hereto hereby consents to the Stockholders Director sharing any information such Stockholders Director (in his or her capacity as such) receives from Parent with the respective
Representatives of any Stockholder, in each case, who shall be deemed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.1 and Section 3.2 as a Restricted Person thereunder (and the relevant Stockholder shall also remain responsible for any
breach of such provisions by any such Stockholder’s Representatives), for the internal use by the Stockholders of any such information, subject, however, to (x) the Stockholder, any Investment Fund of a Stockholder or any of their
respective Affiliates maintaining adequate procedures to prevent such information from being used in connection with the purchase or sale of securities of Parent in violation of applicable Law or this Agreement and (y) compliance by the
Stockholder and, to the extent Confidential Information is furnished thereto, any of its Investment Funds or any of their respective Affiliates with the confidentiality provisions set forth in this Section 6.1 and the restrictions set forth in
Section 3.2. Each Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that it will establish and maintain adequate procedures to prevent Confidential Information with respect to Parent, its Subsidiaries and its and their businesses, finances and operations
from being disclosed in violation of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VII

Section 7.2 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent any direct or indirect
ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Covered Parent Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Covered Parent Shares shall remain vested in and belong to the Stockholders, and Parent shall
have no authority to direct the Stockholders in the voting or disposition of any of the Covered Parent Shares, except as otherwise provided herein. 

Section 7.3 No Inconsistent Agreements. Each Stockholder, jointly and severally, represents, covenants and agrees that, except for
this Agreement, no Stockholder (a) has entered into, or shall enter into at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, any voting agreement, voting trust or similar arrangement with respect to any Covered Parent Shares, (b) has
granted, or shall grant at any time while this Agreement remains in effect, a proxy (except in accordance with the terms hereof pursuant to Article II and Article III), consent or power of attorney with respect to any Covered Parent Shares or

 Section 7.4 Further Assurances. Each
of the Parties agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to give effect to the obligations of the Parties hereunder, including by executing and delivering such

Section 7.6 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, except by an

waiving Party. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any Party of any of its rights under this Agreement
preclude any other or further exercise of such rights or any other rights under this Agreement.

 Section 7.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may
be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when two or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties (including by
facsimile or via portable document format (.pdf)), it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. 

Section 7.9 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the Schedules hereto and, to the extent
referred to in this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, together with the several agreements and other documents and instruments referred to herein or therein or annexed hereto or thereto) (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and (b) is not intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or liabilities upon any Person
other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 
 Section 7.10 Severability. If any term, provision,
covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby, taken as a whole, are not affected in a manner materially
adverse to any Party hereto. Upon any such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort 

  
 15 








 
to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible and to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
fulfilled to the maximum extent possible. 
 Section 7.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties hereto (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to
the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

Section 7.12 Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are
not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. “Include,” “includes,” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by “without limitation” whether or not they are in
fact followed by such words or words of like import. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any
particular provision of this Agreement. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” All Schedules annexed hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of
this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any
Contract, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein means such Contract, instrument or Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of
Laws) by succession of comparable successor Laws and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement is the product of negotiations
by the Parties having the assistance of counsel and other advisers. It is the intention of the Parties that this Agreement not be construed more strictly with regard to one Party than with regard to the others. 

Section 7.13 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Maryland
without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof or of any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 7.14 Enforcement;
Exclusive Jurisdiction. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their
specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions
of this Agreement in the district courts of the State of Maryland or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction over such matter is vested in the federal courts, any federal court located in the State of Maryland without proof of actual damages
or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any
requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. In addition, each of the Parties 

  
 16 








 
hereto (a) consents to submit itself, and hereby submits itself, to the personal jurisdiction of the district courts of the State of Maryland and any federal court located in the State of
Maryland, in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and agrees not to plead or claim any
objection to the laying of venue in any such court or that any judicial proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement in any court other than the
district courts of the State of Maryland or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, any federal court located in the State of Maryland and (d) consents to service of process being made through the notice
procedures set forth in Section 7.7. 
 Section 7.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

Section 7.16 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon,
arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto (and in the case of the Stockholders, each of their
general partners) and no former, current or future equity holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future stockholder, controlling person, director, officer,
employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, agent or Affiliate of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any
claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any
party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse
Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.16 shall in no way be deemed to limit the liability or obligations of any Party to the extent that such Party is required to cause its Subsidiaries, Affiliates or Representatives to take any
action or refrain from taking any action pursuant to this Agreement and Parent shall be entitled to enforce the obligations of the Restricted Persons set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 3.2 hereof directly against
such Restricted Persons. 
 Section 7.17 Freedom to Pursue Opportunities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that: (i) each Non-Recourse Party has the right to, and shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) not to, directly or indirectly engage in the same or similar business activities or
lines of business as Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, including those deemed to be competing with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; and (ii) in the event that a Non-Recourse Party acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that
may be a corporate opportunity for Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, such Non-Recourse Party shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may
be, and shall not be liable to Parent or its Affiliates or stockholders for breach of any duty (contractual or 

  
 17 








 
otherwise) by reason of the fact that such Non-Recourse Party, directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another person, or does not
present such opportunity to Parent; provided, that any Stockholders Director who is offered an investment or business opportunity in his or her capacity as a member of the Parent Board shall be obligated to communicate such opportunity to Parent and
none of (i) the Stockholders or (ii) any of their respective “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act and any Investment Fund, vehicle or holding company of which such Stockholder or any such
affiliate serves as the general partner, managing member or discretionary manager or advisor) shall be permitted to pursue such opportunity unless the Parent Board or the Chief Executive Officer of Parent determines not to do so on a reasonably
timely basis under the circumstances; provided, further, that clause (ii) in the immediately preceding proviso shall not apply to or limit any such affiliate that is separately offered such investment or business opportunity directly by a third
party and not involving the Stockholders Director in an auction scenario (e.g., in which the opportunity is presented to Stockholders Director on behalf of Parent and other strategic and/or private equity investors, including affiliates of
Stockholders). 
 Section 7.18 Sponsor Related Parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent
acknowledges that certain of Stockholder’s Affiliates and other platforms trade debt securities and syndicated bank debt and originate loans (including the provision of debt financing for transactions similar to the transactions contemplated by
the Merger Agreement) and nothing herein shall restrict the ability of such Affiliates or platforms to trade debt securities and syndicated bank debt and originate loans in the ordinary course of business. In addition to, and without limitation of,
the foregoing, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary: none of the provisions of this Agreement shall in any way limit the activities of (i) Non-Private Equity Businesses or (ii) any portfolio company of an Affiliate of
The Blackstone Group L.P., provided that a Representative of such portfolio company does not receive Confidential Information or take any action at the direction or instruction of, or on behalf of, any of the Stockholders or any of the Restricted
Persons.
