(a) The Shareholders shall have the authority to cause the Company to issue additional shares or options, rights, warrants, or any other type
of equity security that the Company may lawfully issue, any unsecured or secured debt obligations of the Company convertible into any class or series of equity securities of the Company (collectively, “Company Securities”),
for any Company purpose at any time or from time to time, to the Shareholders or to other Persons, in each case for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be established by the Shareholders. The Shareholders may reflect the

 ARTICLE 8 

DISPOSITION OF SHARES 

8.1 General Restrictions. A Shareholder may not Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its shares in the Company (the
“Company Shares”); ADS/P may not Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its shares in ADS Worldwide (the “ADSW Shares”); and an Altima Shareholder may not Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its shares in Altima
(the “Altima Shares”); except in strict accordance with this Article 8, subject to the Deadlock provisions set forth in Section 6.3(b) hereof. Any attempted Disposition or Encumbrance of all or any portion of the Company Shares or
Altima Shares, other than in strict accordance with this Article 8, shall be, and is hereby declared, null and void ab initio. The Shareholders, ADS/P and the Altima Shareholders agree that breach of the provisions of this Article 8 may cause
irreparable injury to the Company or the other Shareholders for which monetary damages (or other remedy at law) are inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason
of the failure of a Shareholder to comply with such provisions, and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company business and the relationship among the Shareholders. Accordingly, the Shareholders, ADS/P and the Altima Shareholders agree that the
provisions of this Article 8 may be enforced by specific performance. 
 8.2 Dispositions of Shares. A Shareholder may only Dispose of
or Encumber all or any portion of the Company Shares, ADS/P may only Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its ADSW Shares and an Altima Shareholder may only Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its Altima Shares, with the approval of
all the members of the Board of Directors (which approval may be withheld or granted in the sole discretion of each such member of the Board of Directors). A Shareholder may not make any disposition of less than all of its Company Shares and such
disposition may only be for cash and only to a single Assignee. Notwithstanding the foregoing in Section 8.1 and this Section 8.2, the approval of all of the members of the Board of Directors is not necessary in order for a Shareholder,
ADS/P or an Altima Shareholder to Dispose of or Encumber any or all of its Company Shares, ADSW shares or Altima Shares, as applicable, so long as such Disposition or Encumbrance is made to another Shareholder, an Affiliate of ADS/P or an Altima
Shareholder, as applicable, provided, however, the other provisions of this Article 8 remain applicable to any such Disposition or Encumbrance.

 8.3 Preferential Purchase Right. 

(a) Procedure. In addition to the requirements of Section 8.2, should any Shareholder at any time desire to Dispose of all of its
shares, then such Shareholder (the “Disposing Shareholder”) shall promptly give notice thereof (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Board of Directors of the Company and the other Shareholder (the
“Responding Shareholder”). The Transfer Notice shall set forth all relevant information with respect to the proposed Disposition, including the name and address of the prospective acquirer and the purchase price in cash, and
any other terms and conditions of the proposed Disposition. The Responding Shareholders shall have the preferential right to acquire such shares for the same purchase price, and on the same terms and conditions, as are set forth in the Transfer
Notice. The Responding Shareholder shall have thirty (30) Days following its receipt of the Transfer Notice in which to notify the Disposing Shareholder whether the Responding Shareholder desires to exercise its preferential right or to
designate its Assignee. (A notice in which a Shareholder exercises such right to purchase is referred to herein as an “Exercise Notice” and a Shareholder that delivers an Exercise Notice is referred to herein as a
“Purchasing Shareholder”). A Shareholder that does not respond during the applicable period shall be deemed to have waived such right to purchase or designate its Assignee with respect to the Transfer Notice. A Shareholder
waiver of its preferential right to purchase the shares shall be invalid, and the procedure set forth in this Section shall commence anew, if the Disposing Shareholder modifies any of the terms and conditions of the Transfer Notice that was the
basis for the Responding Shareholder’s waiver. 
 (b) Assignment to Affiliate. The Purchasing Shareholder may assign to one of

arbitrator within the thirty (30) day period specified above, then the appointment of the second arbitrator shall be made by the AAA upon the request of the other party; and if the appointed
arbitrators shall fail to appoint the third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the date of appointment of the most recently appointed arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA upon the request of either party. In
connection with any such arbitration, the arbitrators shall construe this Agreement in a manner consistent with the choice of law provisions set forth in Section 13.11. The arbitrators shall endeavor to notify any Disputing Party not present of
any adjournment to other dates or places; however, the proceedings may continue in the absence of any Disputing Party that has received notice of the date, the time, and the place of the initial session of the hearing. All hearings shall be
conducted in English, unless the parties agree to use a different language, but at all times the Parties agree to provide simultaneous translation to the Parties’ language of origin.

any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, the rights and remedies provided by this Agreement are cumulative and the use of any one right or remedy by any
party hereto shall not preclude or constitute a waiver of its right to use any or all other remedies. Such rights and remedies are given in addition to any other rights and remedies a party may have by law, statute or otherwise. 

13.11 Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the law of Mexico, excluding

jurisdiction in order to enforce any judgment obtained in any other proceeding or to compel arbitration or enforce an order or judgment of the arbitrator, nor shall the bringing of such enforcement proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions
