 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS 

2.1 Election of Directors. 
 (a) Following the Closing Date, the Blackstone Group shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate to the Board a number of designees equal to at least: (i) a majority of the Total Number
of Directors, so long as the Blackstone Entities collectively beneficially own 50% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; (ii) 40% of the Total Number of Directors, in the event that the Blackstone Entities collectively beneficially
own 40% or more, but less than 50%, of the outstanding shares 

  
 3 

 
of Common Stock; (iii) 30% of the Total Number of Directors, in the event that the Blackstone Entities collectively beneficially own 30% or more, but less than 40%, of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock; (iv) 20% of the Total Number of Directors, in the event that the Blackstone Entities collectively beneficially own 20% or more, but less than 30%, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; and (v) 10% of the Total Number
of Directors, in the event that the Blackstone Entities collectively beneficially own 5% or more, but less than 20%, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of calculating the number of directors that the Blackstone Group is entitled
to designate pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, any fractional amounts shall automatically be rounded up to the nearest whole number (e.g., one and one quarter (11/4) Directors shall equate to two (2) Directors) and any such calculations shall be made after taking into account any
increase in the Total Number of Directors. 
 (b) In the event that the Blackstone Group has nominated less than the total
number of designees the Blackstone Group shall be entitled to nominate pursuant to Section 2.1(a), the Blackstone Group shall have the right, at any time, to nominate such additional designees to which it is entitled, in which case, the Company
and the Directors shall take all necessary corporation action, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to (x) enable the Blackstone Group to nominate and effect the election or appointment of such additional individuals, whether by increasing
the size of the Board, or otherwise and (y) to designate such additional individuals nominated by the Blackstone Group to fill such newly-created vacancies or to fill any other existing vacancies. Each such person whom the Blackstone Group
shall actually nominate pursuant to this Section 2.1 and who is thereafter elected to the Board to serve as a Director shall be referred to herein as a “Blackstone Designee”. 

(c) In the event that a vacancy is created at any time by the death, disability, retirement or resignation of any Director designated
pursuant to this Section 2.1, the remaining Directors and the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, cause the vacancy created thereby to be filled by a new designee of the Blackstone Group, if such Director was designated by
the Blackstone Group, as soon as possible, and the Company hereby agrees to take, to the fullest extent permitted by law, at any time and from time to time, all actions necessary to accomplish the same. 

(d) The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board at any
meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors the persons designated pursuant to this Section 2.1 and to use its best efforts to cause the election of each such designee to the Board, including nominating each such
individual to be elected as a Director as provided herein, recommending such individual’s election and soliciting proxies or consents in favor thereof.

 ARTICLE III. 
 INFORMATION; VCOC 
 3.1 Books and Records; Access. The Company shall, and
shall cause its Subsidiaries to, keep proper books, records and accounts, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, permit the Blackstone Entities and their respective designated representatives, at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice to the Company, to
review the books and records of the Company or any of such Subsidiaries and to discuss the affairs, finances and condition of the Company or any of such Subsidiaries with the officers of the Company or any such Subsidiary; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any privileged information of the Company so long as the Company has used its best efforts to enter into an arrangement pursuant to which it may provide such information to the
Blackstone Entities without the loss of any such privilege. 
 3.2 Certain Reports. The Company shall deliver or cause to
be delivered to the Blackstone Entities, at their request: 
 (a) to the extent otherwise prepared by the Company, operating and
capital expenditure budgets and periodic information packages relating to the operations and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and 
 (b) such other reports and information as may be reasonably requested by the Blackstone Entities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any privileged
information of the Company so long as the Company has used its best efforts to enter into an arrangement pursuant to which it may provide such information to the Blackstone Entities without the loss of any such privilege. 

3.3 VCOC. With respect to each Blackstone Entity that is intended to qualify its direct or indirect investment in the Company as a
“venture capital investment” as defined in the Department of Labor regulations codified at 29 CFR Section 2510.3-101 (the “Plan Asset Regulation”) (each, a “VCOC Investor”), for so long as the VCOC
Investor, directly or through one or more subsidiaries, continues to hold any shares of Common Stock (or other securities of the company into which such shares of Common Stock may be converted or for which such shares of Common Stock may be
exchanged), without limitation or prejudice of any the rights provided to the Blackstone Entities hereunder, the Company shall, with respect to each such VCOC Investor: 
 (a) provide each VCOC Investor or its designated representative with: 
 (i) the right to visit and inspect any of the offices and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries and inspect and copy the books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries, at such times as
the VCOC Investor shall reasonably request; 

  
 5 

 (ii) as soon as available and in any event within 45 days after the end of
each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such period, and consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its
Subsidiaries for the period then ended prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a consistent basis, except as otherwise noted therein, and subject to the absence of footnotes and to
year-end adjustments; 
 (iii) as soon as available and in any event within 120 days after the end of each fiscal
year of the Company, a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such year, and consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the year then ended prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a consistent basis, except as otherwise noted therein, together with an auditor’s report thereon of a firm of established national reputation; 

(iv) to the extent the Company is required by law or pursuant to the terms of any outstanding indebtedness of the Company
to prepare such reports, any annual reports, quarterly reports and other periodic reports pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, actually prepared by the Company as soon as available; and 

(v) copies of all materials provided to the Board, subject to appropriate protections with respect to confidentiality and
preservation of attorney-client privilege; 
 provided, that, in each case, if the Company makes the information described in
clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this clause (a) available through public filings on the EDGAR System or any successor or replacement system of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the delivery of such information shall be
deemed satisfied; 
 (b) make appropriate officers and/or Directors of the Company available, and cause the officers and
directors of its Subsidiaries to be made available, periodically and at such times as reasonably requested by each VCOC Investor for consultation with such VCOC Investor or its designated representative with respect to matters relating to the
business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries; 
 (c) to the extent consistent with applicable law, rule, regulation
or listing standards (and with respect to events which require public disclosure, only following the Company’s public disclosure thereof through applicable securities law filings or otherwise), inform each VCOC Investor or its designated
representative in advance with respect to any significant corporate actions, and to provide (or cause to be provided) each VCOC Investor or its designated representative with the right to consult with the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to
such actions should the VCOC Investor elect to do so and provided that the Company shall be under no obligation to provide the VCOC Investor with any material non-public information with respect to such corporate action; and 

  
 6 

 (d) provide each VCOC Investor or its designated representative with such other rights of
consultation which the VCOC Investor’s counsel may determine to be reasonably necessary under applicable legal authorities promulgated after the date hereof to qualify its investment in the Company as a “venture capital investment”
for purposes of the United States Department of Labor Regulation published the Plan Asset Regulation. 
 The Company agrees to consider, in good
faith, the recommendations of each VCOC Investor or its designated representative in connection with the matters on which it is consulted as described above in this Section 3.3, recognizing that the ultimate discretion with respect to all such
matters shall be retained by the Company. 
 In the event the VCOC Investor or any of its Affiliates transfers all or any portion of their
investment in the Company to an Affiliated entity that is intended to qualify as a “venture capital operating company” (as defined in the Plan Asset Regulation), such Transferee shall be afforded the same rights with respect to the Company
afforded to the VCOC Investor hereunder and shall be treated, for such purposes, as a third party beneficiary hereunder. 
 In the event that
the Company ceases to qualify as an “operating company” (as defined in the first sentence of 2510.3-101(c)(1) of the Plan Asset Regulation), or the investment in the Company by a VCOC Investor does not qualify as a “venture capital
investment” as defined in the Plan Asset Regulation, then the Company and each Blackstone Entity will cooperate in good faith to take all reasonable actions necessary, subject to applicable law, to preserve the VCOC status of each
VCOC Investor or the qualification of the investment as a “venture capital investment,” it being understood that such reasonable actions shall not require a VCOC Investor to purchase or sell any investments. 

ARTICLE IV.

accepts the jurisdiction and venue of or, if the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction over this matter, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Complex Commercial Division), or if jurisdiction over the matter is vested
exclusively in federal courts, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and the appellate courts to which orders and judgments thereof may be appealed. In any such judicial proceeding, the parties agree that in addition to any
method for the service of process permitted or required by such courts, to the fullest extent permitted by law, service of process may be made by delivery provided pursuant to the directions in Section 4.2. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

4.9 Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach of this Agreement by any of

 (a) this Agreement (or the separate joinder agreement executed by such Securityholder) has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Securityholder, and this Agreement constitutes a legal and
binding obligation of such Securityholder, enforceable against such Securityholder in accordance with its terms; and 
 (b) the

with, or result in a breach or default under, any term or condition of any agreement or other instrument to which such Securityholder is a party or by which such Securityholder is bound. 

ARTICLE II 

VOTING AGREEMENTS 

2.1 Election of Directors. 
 (a) On or prior to the Lapse Date, each Person, other than the Company, that is a party to this Agreement hereby agrees that such Person will vote, or cause to be voted, all voting securities of the
Company over which such Person has the power to vote or direct the voting, and will take all other necessary or desirable action within such Person’s control, and the Company will take all necessary and desirable actions within its control, to
cause the authorized number of directors for each of the respective boards of directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be established at up to ten directors, and to elect or cause to be elected to the respective boards of directors of the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries and cause to be continued in office, such individuals as are designated from time to time by Holdings. 
 (b) If at any time on or prior to the Lapse Date, Holdings shall notify the other parties to this Agreement of their desire to remove, with or without cause, any individual from a Company or Subsidiary
directorship, all such parties so notified will vote, or cause to be voted, all voting securities of the Company and the aforementioned Subsidiaries over which they have the power to vote or direct the voting, and shall take all such other actions
promptly as shall be necessary or desirable to cause the removal of such director. 
 (c) If at any time on or prior to the
Lapse Date, any director ceases to serve on the board of directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (whether due to resignation, removal or otherwise), Holdings shall be entitled to designate a successor member/director to fill the vacancy
created thereby. Each Person that is a party hereto agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all voting securities of the Company and the aforementioned Subsidiaries over which such Person has the power to vote or direct the voting, and shall take all
such other actions as shall be necessary or desirable to cause the designated successor to be elected to fill such vacancy. 

  
 2 

 (d) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impair any rights that the unitholders
or stockholders of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company may have to remove any director for cause under applicable law or the organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be. No such removal of an individual
designated pursuant to this Section 2.1 for cause shall affect any of Holdings’ rights to designate a different individual pursuant to this Section 2.1 to fill the position from which such individual was removed. 

(e) The provisions of this Section 2.1 shall remain in effect following the first Public Offering. 

2.2 Other Voting Matters. 
 (a) Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees that such party will vote, or cause to be voted, all voting securities of the Company and its Subsidiaries over which such party has the power to vote or
direct the voting, either in person or by proxy, whether at a securityholders meeting, or by written consent, in the manner in which Holdings directs in connection with the approval of any amendment or amendments to the Company’s organizational
documents, the merger, security exchange, combination or consolidation of the Company with any other Person or Persons, the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis, and the reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. 
 (b) In
order to effectuate the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof, each holder of Employee Securities hereby grants to Jeffrey P. Ansell, or if Jeffrey P. Ansell shall cease to be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to his successor in such
position with the Company, or if the Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall be unable to exercise this proxy due to illness or absence or if the position of Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall be vacant, to the General Counsel of the
Company, a proxy to vote at any annual or special meeting of Securityholders, or to take any action by written consent in lieu of such meeting with respect to, or to otherwise take action in respect of, all of the Securities owned or held of record
by such holder in connection with the matters set forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof. Each of the proxies granted hereby is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest. To effectuate
the provisions of this Section 2.2(b), the Secretary of each of the Company and each of the aforementioned Subsidiaries of the Company, or if there be no Secretary such other officer or employee of the Company or such Subsidiaries as the board
of directors of the Company or such Subsidiaries may appoint to fulfill the duties of the Secretary, shall not record any vote or consent or other action contrary to the terms of this Section 2.2(b). 

ARTICLE III 

TRANSFERS OF SECURITIES 
 3.1 Restrictions on Transfer of Employee Securities. Prior to the earliest of (i) a Qualified Public Offering, (ii) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (ii) April 2, 2014 (the
“Lapse Date”), no holder of Employee Securities may Transfer any Employee Securities except in an Exempt Employee Transfer. 

  
 3 

 3.2 Right of First Refusal. 

(a) If, at any time on or after the Lapse Date and prior to a Public Offering, any holder of Employee Securities (for purposes of this
Section 3.2(a), a “Selling Employee Holder”) proposes to sell any or all of his Employee Securities (other than an Exempt Employee Transfer) to a third party (a “Proposed Sale”), such Selling Employee Holder
shall first notify the Company in writing. Such Selling Employee Holder’s notice to the Company (the “Proposed Sale Notice”) shall (i) state such Selling Employee Holder’s intention to sell Employee Securities to one
or more persons, the amount of Employee Securities to be sold, the purchase price therefor, and the other material terms of the Proposed Sale and (ii) contain an irrevocable offer to sell such Employee Securities to the Company (in the manner
set forth below) at a purchase price equal to the price contained in, and on the same terms and conditions of, the Proposed Sale. 
 (b) At any time within thirty (30) days after the date of the receipt by the Company of the Proposed Sale Notice, the Company shall have the right and option to purchase, or to arrange for a third
party to purchase, all of the Employee Securities covered by the Proposed Sale Notice at the same price and on the same terms and conditions of the Proposed Sale (or, if the Proposed Sale includes any consideration other than cash, then, at the sole
option of the Company, at the equivalent all cash price, determined in good faith by the board directors of the Company), by delivering a certified bank check or checks in the appropriate amount (or by wire transfer of immediately available funds,
if the Selling Employee Holder provides to the Company wire transfer instructions) (and any such non-cash consideration to be paid) to the Selling Employee Holder at the principal office of the Company against delivery of certificates or other
instruments representing the Employee Securities so purchased, appropriately endorsed by the Selling Employee Holder. If at the end of the 30-day period, the Company or such third party has not tendered the purchase price for such Employee
Securities in the manner set forth above, the Selling Employee Holder may, during the succeeding 30-day period, sell not less than all of the Employee Securities covered by the Proposed Sale to a third party on terms no less favorable to the Selling
Employee Holder than those contained in the Proposed Sale Notice. Promptly after such sale, the Selling Employee Holder shall notify the Company of the consummation thereof and shall furnish such evidence of the completion and time of completion of
such sale and of the terms thereof as may reasonably be requested by the Company. If, at the end of thirty (30) days following the expiration of the 30-day period, during which the Company is entitled hereunder to purchase the Employee
Securities, the Selling Employee Holder has not completed the sale of such Employee Securities as aforesaid, all of the restrictions on sale, transfer or assignment contained in this Agreement shall again be in effect with respect to such Employee
Securities. 
 3.3 Securities Act Compliance No Securities may be transferred by a holder of Employee Securities (other
than pursuant to an effective registration statement 

  
 4 

 
under the Securities Act) unless such Securityholder first delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect
that such Transfer is not required to be registered under the Securities Act. 
 3.4 Certain Transferees Bound by
Agreement Subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article III, any Securityholder may Transfer any Securities held by such Securityholder in accordance with applicable law; provided, however, that if the Transfer is not made
pursuant to a Public Sale or a transaction the consummation of which will cause the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article V, then the Transferor of such Security shall first deliver to the Company a written agreement of the proposed
Transferee (excluding a Transferee that is a Limited Partner) to become a Securityholder and to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (unless such proposed Transferee is already a Securityholder). All Employee Securities will continue to be
Employee Securities in the hands of any Transferee (other than the Company, Blackstone or any Transferee in a Public Sale). All Blackstone Securities will continue to be Blackstone Securities in the hands of any Transferee (other than the Company,
the Employees or a Transferee in a Public Sale). 
 3.5 Transfers in Violation of Agreement Any Transfer or attempted
Transfer of any Securities in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be void, and the Company shall not record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Securities as the owner of such Securities for any
purpose. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS 
 ON APPROVED SALE 

4.1 Drag-Along Rights. 
 (a) Subject to the next paragraph, if Blackstone or Holdings elects to consummate, or to cause the Company to consummate, a transaction constituting a Change of Control, Blackstone or Holdings, as
applicable, shall notify the Company and the other Securityholders in writing of that election, the other Securityholders will consent to and raise no objections to the proposed transaction, and the Securityholders and the Company will take all
other actions reasonably necessary or desirable to cause the consummation of such transaction on the terms proposed by Blackstone or Holdings (a “Drag Along Sale”). Without limiting the foregoing, (i) if the proposed Drag Along
Sale is structured as a sale of assets or a merger or consolidation, or otherwise requires stockholder approval, the Securityholders and the Company will vote or cause to be voted all Securities that they hold or with respect to which such
Securityholder has the power to direct the voting and which are entitled to vote on such transaction in favor of such transaction and will waive any appraisal rights which they may have in connection therewith, and (ii) if the proposed Drag
Along Sale is structured as or involves a sale or redemption of Securities, the Securityholders will agree to sell their pro-rata share of the Securities being sold in such Drag Along Sale on the terms and conditions approved by Blackstone or
Holdings, and the Securityholders will execute any merger, asset purchase, security purchase, recapitalization or other sale agreement approved by Blackstone in connection with such Change of Control. 

  
 5 

 (b) The obligations of the Securityholders with respect to the Drag Along Sale are subject
to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of the Drag Along Sale, all of the holders of a particular class or series of Securities (if any consideration is to be received by any of them) shall receive the same
form and amount of consideration per share, unit or amount of Securities, or if any holders of a particular class or series of Securities are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, all holders of such class or
series will be given the same option and (ii) if consideration is to be received by holders of Securities, all holders of then currently exercisable rights to acquire a particular class or series of Securities will be given an opportunity to
either (A) exercise such rights prior to the consummation of the Drag Along Sale and participate in such sale as holders of such Securities or (B) upon the consummation of the Drag Along Sale, receive in exchange for such rights
consideration equal to the amount determined by multiplying (1) the same amount of consideration per share, unit or amount of Securities received by the holders of such type and class of Securities in connection with the Drag Along Sale less
the exercise price per share, unit or amount of such rights to acquire such Securities by (2) the number of shares, units or aggregate amount of Securities represented by such rights. 

(c) Each Securityholder will bear its or his pro-rata share (based upon the relative amount of proceeds received for the Securities sold)
of the reasonable costs of any sale of Securities pursuant to a Drag Along Sale to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of all Securityholders and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring party. Costs incurred by or on
behalf of a Securityholder for its or his sole benefit will not be considered costs of the transaction hereunder. In the event that any transaction that Blackstone elects to consummate or cause to be consummated pursuant to this Section 4.1 is
not consummated for any reason, the Company will reimburse Blackstone for all actual and reasonable expenses paid or incurred by Blackstone in connection therewith. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Blackstone and its Affiliates shall be entitled to be paid customary and reasonable fees by Holdings, the Company or any Subsidiary for
any investment banking services provided by it in connection with a Change of Control. 
 (e) The provisions of this
Section 4.1 shall remain in effect following the first Public Offering. 

  
 6 

 ARTICLE V 
 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
 5.1 Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise
provided herein, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the Securityholders unless such modification, amendment or waiver is approved in writing by each of the Company and
Holdings; provided that no such modification, amendment or waiver may materially adversely affect Employee Securities or the rights or obligations hereunder of holders of Employee Securities unless approved in writing by the Employee Majority
Holders. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this
Agreement in accordance with its terms. 
 5.2 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement will terminate in respect of all
Securityholders (a) with the written consent of the Company, Holdings and the Employee Majority Holders, (b) upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or (c) upon the consummation of a transaction, whether in a
single transaction or in a series of related transactions that are consummated contemporaneously (or consummated pursuant to contemporaneous agreements), with any other Person or Persons on an arms-length basis, pursuant to which such party or
parties acquire (whether by merger, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization, redemption, issuance of capital stock or otherwise) more than 50% of the Fully Diluted Shares or voting stock of the Company. 

5.3 Termination as to a Party. Any Person who ceases to hold any Securities shall cease to be a
Securityholder and shall have no further rights or obligations under this.

DATED AS OF MAY 28, 2008 AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (THE “COMPANY”) AND CERTAIN OF THE COMPANY’S SECURITYHOLDERS AND, AS SUCH, ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN VOTING PROVISIONS, PURCHASE RIGHTS AND RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH
IN THE SECURITYHOLDERS AGREEMENT. A COPY OF SUCH SECURITYHOLDERS AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.” 
 (b) Restricted Securities. Each instrument or certificate, if any, evidencing Securities and each instrument or certificate, if any, issued in exchange or upon the Transfer of any Securities shall
be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form: 
 “THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD UNLESS IT HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR UNLESS AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE (AND, IN SUCH CASE,
AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO THE COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH OFFER OR SALE IS NOT REQUIRED TO BE REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT).” 

(c) Removal of Legends. Whenever in the opinion of the Company and counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which opinion
shall be delivered to the Company in writing) the restrictions described in any legend set forth above cease to be applicable to any Securities, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without expense to the holder, a new
instrument or certificate not bearing a legend stating such restriction.

 6.3 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had
never been contained herein. 
 6.4 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this document
embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which

exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that the Company or any Securityholder may in its or
his sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunctive relief (without posting a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this
Agreement.
