 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agree as follows: 
  
 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Stockholders Agreement.

“Common Stock”) and/or shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) that become parties hereto by executing and delivering to the Company (in compliance with the
provisions hereof) an Instrument of Accession in the form of Exhibit A are herein referred to collectively as the “Stockholders” and each individually as a “Stockholder”. Shares of Common Stock or Preferred
Stock, as adjusted from time to time for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock reverse splits, stock combinations or similar pro rata share recapitalization events, are herein referred to collectively as the
“Shares”.” 
  
 3. Amendment to
Recitals. The fourth paragraph of the recitals to the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 
  
 “WHEREAS, certain of the Stockholders have entered (or will enter) into subscription agreements with
the Company (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) pursuant to which such Stockholders, among other things, have purchased (or will purchase) Shares which are (or will be at the time of purchase) subject to restricted stock agreements
with the Company (each, a “Restricted Stock Agreement”, the Shares subject to such Restricted Stock Agreements, the “Restricted Shares”, and the Stockholders with respect to their Restricted Shares, sometimes
hereinafter referred to as, the “Restricted Stockholders”);” 

 4. Amendment to Section 3. Section 3 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
sentence at the end thereof: “For purposes of this Agreement, a Stockholder shall be deemed to hold a Share (and shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof) if such Stockholder holds,
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Voting Trust, the Voting Trust Certificate (within the meaning of such Voting Trust) evidencing such Share.” 
  
 5. Amendments to Section 5. 
  

(a) Subsection (c) of Section 5 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the word “and” at the end of such subsection. 
  
 (b) Subsection (d) of Section 5 of the Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 
  
 “(d) by a Stockholder (including, without limitation, from and after the consummation of an Initial Public Offering, pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act) in accordance
with Section 6 of this Agreement; and” 
  
 (c) Section 5, as
heretofore amended, is hereby further amended by adding a new subsection (e) at the end thereof, which subsection (e) shall read as follows: 
  
 “(e) by a Stockholder in accordance with Section 8(a)(i) of this Agreement (in which case, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, the provisions of Section 6 shall not apply to such transfer of such Securities).” 
  
 6. Amendments to Section 6. 
  
 (a) Clause (i) of Section 6(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 
  
 “If any Other Stockholder or group of Other
Stockholders or Permitted Transferees thereof (a “Selling Stockholder”) shall desire to sell, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, any number of Shares to another Person (other than to (x) a Permitted
Transferee, (y) any Designated Person of such Selling Stockholder (but only to the extent such Shares constitute Excess Shares and in which case the proviso set forth in Section 5(c) shall apply to such sale as if such Designated Person were a
Permitted Transferee), or (z) the Company pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement or similar agreement with the Company to which such Selling Stockholder and the Company are parties), the Selling Stockholder shall not approach any possible buyer
but shall give prompt written notice 

 
thereof to the Company and CHP IV (the “Offering Notice”), setting forth in such notice the number and type of Shares it desires to sell
(the “Offered Shares”).” 
  
 (b) Clause (v)
of Section 6(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 
  
 “Upon the Selling Stockholder’s first rejection of either of such Offers, but subject to Sections 6(e) and (f), the Selling
Stockholder may consummate a sale of the Offered Shares (which do not constitute Excess Shares (as defined below)) by entering within 90 days (the “Section 6(e) Offer Period”) from the date of the expiration of the Extended Option
Period into a definitive agreement with a third party for the sale of the Offered Shares by the Selling Stockholder to such party so long as such sale is on terms and conditions which are no less favorable to the Selling Stockholder than the terms
and conditions of both rejected Offers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, at any time during the Section 6(e) Offer Period, CHP IV desires to pursue the sale of the entire Company and such definitive agreement has not
already been executed and delivered by the Selling Stockholder, CHP IV may, in its sole discretion, elect to suspend (a “Basic Tag-Along Suspension”), by written notice thereof to the Selling Stockholder, for a period of up to 180
days (such period, the “Basic Tag-Along Suspension Period”), the right of the Selling Stockholder to pursue the sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to Section 6(e) hereof (in which case any day of the Basic Tag-Along Suspension
Period shall not count as a day of the Section 6(e) Offer Period), provided that, if during the Basic Tag-Along Suspension Period, CHP IV or a Permitted CHP Transferee exercises its rights pursuant to Section 6(f) hereof, the Basic Tag-Along
Suspension Period shall be automatically extended until such time as the Selling Stockholder is no longer required by Section 6(f) to sell the Offered Shares thereunder, and provided, further, that, if, upon the expiration of the Basic Tag-Along
Suspension Period, as extended above, the Offered Shares of the Selling Stockholder have not been sold by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to Section 6(f), the Section 6(e) Offer Period with respect to the Offered Shares shall resume. 
  
 (c) Section 6(a) of the Agreement, as heretofore amended, is hereby further
amended by adding a new clause (vi) at the end thereof, which clause (vi) shall read as follows: 
  
 “Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, if any of the Shares held by a Stockholder
become Excess Shares, and, in accordance with Section 6(a), such Stockholder shall become a Selling Stockholder and such Excess Shares shall become Offered Shares (whether alone or together with any Offered Shares), then 

 (i) The Option Period with respect to the Company’s Offer (if any) for such Excess
Shares shall be reduced to five days from the date of the related Offering Notice, 
  
 (ii) The Extended Option Period with respect to CHP IV’s Offer (if any) for such Excess Shares shall be reduced to five days from the
last day of the related Option Period, and 
  
 (iii) Upon the Selling Stockholder’s rejection of any such Offer, the Selling Stockholder may, without being required to comply with Sections 6(e) and (f) hereof, consummate a sale of such Excess Shares to a Person which is a Citizen
(the “Excess Shares Purchaser”) within 50 days from the date of the related Offering Notice (the “Citizenship-Related Tag-Along Suspension Period”) provided that such sale conforms to the following conditions:

  
 (1) that, unless such Excess Shares Purchaser
is a Designated Person of the Selling Stockholder, the Selling Stockholder shall first offer, by written notice to CHP IV (the “Excess Shares Offer Notice”), to sell such Excess Shares to CHP IV on the same terms and conditions on
which such Selling Stockholder proposes to sell such Excess Shares to the Excess Shares Purchaser and, upon its receipt of such Excess Shares Offer Notice, CHP IV shall have three Business Days in which to accept such offer, and, if CHP IV fails to
accept such offer within such three Business Days of the Excess Shares Offer Notice, then the Selling Stockholder may sell such Excess Shares to the Excess Shares Purchaser only (x) on terms and conditions which are no less favorable to the Selling
Stockholder than the terms and conditions set forth in the Excess Shares Offer Notice, and (y) if the Holder Eligibility Requirements with respect to such Excess Shares Purchaser are satisfied, and 
  
 (2) if the Excess Shares Purchaser is a Designated Person of
the Selling Stockholder, then the Selling Stockholder may sell such Excess Shares to such Excess Shares Purchaser only (x) on terms and conditions which are no less favorable to the Selling Stockholder than the terms and conditions of both rejected
Offers, and (y) if the Holder Eligibility Requirements with respect to such Excess Share Purchaser are satisfied. 
  
 If CHP IV shall elect to accept the offer made in the Excess Shares Offer Notice by its written notice to the Selling Stockholder of its acceptance of
such offer, the closing of such sale to CHP IV shall be made pursuant to Section 6(c) but the Closing Date of such sale shall no earlier than two days nor later than five days after such written notice. 
  
 (iv) Unless required by Marad or otherwise determined by the
Company’s Board of Directors (in the exercise of its fiduciary duties) or by the holders of at least 60% of the Shares then held by the Other 

 
Stockholders, during the Citizenship-Related Tag-Along Suspension Period, the Company shall not exercise its right to redeem all or any of the applicable
Excess Shares pursuant to Section 6 of the Company Charter. Upon the expiration of the Citizenship-Related Tag-Along Suspension Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, exercise its right to redeem all or any of the applicable Excess Shares
then held by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to Section 6 of the Company Charter.” 
  
 (d) Section 6(a) of the Agreement, as heretofore amended, is hereby further amended by adding a new clause (vii) at the end thereof, which clause (vii) shall read as follows: 
  
 “Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section
6(e) or elsewhere in this Agreement, CHP may, without being required to comply with Sections 6(e) and (f) hereof, transfer to any one or more Persons any Shares that were previously purchased by CHP IV pursuant to Section 6(e) and, at the time of
such purchase, constituted Excess Shares, provided that the Holder Eligibility Requirements are satisfied with respect to each such Person.” 
  
 (e) Clause (i)(A) of Section 6(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 

 
 “In addition to the rights afforded under Section
6(a), if any Stockholder proposes to transfer to any Person (other than (x) a Permitted Transferee, (y) the Company or CHP IV pursuant to Section 6(a), or (z) the Company pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement or similar agreement with the Company
to which such Selling Stockholder and the Company are parties) (the “Transferring Stockholder”), in a single transaction or a series of related or unrelated transactions a number of its Shares greater than 25% of the outstanding
Shares and Underlying Shares held by such Transferring Stockholder on the Closing Date (a “Proposed Sale”), each Stockholder (other than the Transferring Stockholder) shall be offered, as provided below, the opportunity in
connection with each such Proposed Sale that, alone or together with previous related or unrelated sales, exceeds 25% of the outstanding shares held by such Transferring Stockholder, to sell a portion of its Shares of the same class on the
Applicable Terms and Conditions (as defined in clause (v) below).” 
  
 (f) Clause (i) of Section 6(f) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following text: 
  
 “ If CHP IV and/or one or more Permitted CHP Transferees proposes to transfer, in a single transaction
or a series of related transactions (to the same purchaser or affiliated purchasers), more than 50% of the Shares (assuming the conversion of any convertible securities or the exercise of any option, warrant or any other similar right in each case
as may then be held by CHP IV or any Permitted CHP IV Transferee 

 
and in-the-money) owned by CHP IV and all Permitted CHP Transferees either as of the date hereof or, if the number of Shares owned by CHP IV and all
Permitted CHP Transferees as of the date of such proposed transfer has increased from the number thereof owned by them as of the date hereof, as of the date of such transfer, in a bona fide transaction (but excluding a Permitted Transfer under
Sections 5(a) and 5(b)) to one or more unaffiliated third parties (excluding a Permitted CHP Transferee or an Other Stockholder) (and regardless of whether such transfer is by means of a sale of such Shares, a merger of the Company in which such
Shares are converted into the right to receive cash, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and a subsequent distribution of the proceeds therefrom), CHP IV and/or the Permitted CHP Transferees shall be entitled, by
delivery of 30 days’ prior written notice to the Other Stockholders, specifying the name and address of the proposed parties to such transaction and the terms thereof, to require each such Other Stockholder to sell a number of the Shares held
by it (plus any Rollover Options as may be necessary to account for Shares on the basis of the Underlying Shares relating thereto) equal to the product of (x) the outstanding number of such Shares plus the Underlying Shares owned by such Other
Stockholder as of the last day of such 30-day period, multiplied by (y) the quotient determined by dividing (1) the outstanding number of Shares being transferred by CHP IV and/or the Permitted CHP Transferees and (2) the outstanding number of
Shares owned by CHP IV and/or the Permitted CHP Transferees as of the last day of such 30-day period, upon the same terms as the terms on which CHP IV and/or the Permitted CHP Transferees are selling their Shares in the proposed transaction, and
such Other Stockholder shall comply and sell its Shares and its Rollover Options computed on the basis of the Underlying Shares relating thereto. The price for any Rollover Option (or portion thereof) being transferred under this Section 6(f) shall
be the per Share price to be received by CHP IV or the Permitted CHP Transferee, as the case may be, net of the exercise price therefor, multiplied by the number of Shares for which such Rollover Option (or portion thereof) may then be
exercised.” 
  
 7. Amendments to Section 7.

  
 (a) Clause (iii) of Section 7(c) of the Agreement is hereby
amended by replacing the entire definition of “Preemptive Rightholders” specified therein with the following text: “(together with the Other Stockholders, the “Preemptive Rightholders”)”. 
  
 (b) Clauses (ix) and (x) of Section 7(e) of the Agreement are hereby amended
by deleting them in their entirety and replacing them with the following text:

“Additional Shares”) (A) pursuant to the conversion (collectively, the “Conversion”), 

 
from time to time, of all or a portion, of the 13.0% Convertible Promissory Notes in the original principal amount of $70,000,000 due July 7, 2005, issued by
the Company on July 7, 2004 (the “Notes”), and/or (B) in connection with the sale by the Company of the Additional Shares to investors (“Equity Investors”) on terms and conditions to be negotiated and agreed on with
the Equity Investors (collectively, the “Equity Syndication”), subject to the following minimum terms and conditions: (1) in the case of the Conversion and the Equity Syndication, the Additional Shares are to be issued in the ratio
of 15 shares of Preferred Stock to one share of Common Stock (each such combination of 15 shares of Preferred Stock and one share of Common Stock being referred to herein, solely for sake of convenience, as a “Unit”) to each holder
of Notes and/or Equity Investor, (2) in the case of the Equity Syndication, the price to be paid by each Equity Investor to the Company for a Unit shall be no less than $158 in cash per Unit, and (3) in the case of the Equity Syndication, the
proceeds received by the Company from the issuance and sale of the Units shall be used by the Company for the prepayment, to the extent of the amount of such proceeds, of the outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, the Notes, to the
extent such Notes are then outstanding, in accordance with the terms of the Notes; (x) issuances of Shares in connection with the exercise of a put or call pursuant to the Put/Call Agreement; and (xi) issuances to one or more Persons of shares of
Preferred Stock and Common Stock (to the extent reasonably practical) up to that number of shares of each such class of capital stock that were previously purchased by the Company pursuant to Section 6(e) and, at the time of such purchase,

in such registration (such shares to be registered, the “Registrable Securities”), provided that (x) the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Shares, (y) the Company has received written requests for
inclusion therein within twenty days after the Company’s notice, and (z) Shares of such class of such Stockholder’s Shares which such Stockholder had the right, pursuant to this Section 8(a), to include in a prior registration but declined
to so include shall not be eligible for further inclusion.
