Section 3. Guarantee. 

3.01 The Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of each of
the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further jointly and
severally agree that if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated or extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Subsidiary Guarantors will jointly and severally pay the same
without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
 3.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the
Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 3.01 are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, joint and 

  
 25 

 
several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the other Debt Documents or any other agreement or
instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other
circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (other than the satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), it being the intent of this Section 3 that the
obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not
alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: 

(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or
compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement, the other Debt Documents or any other agreement or
instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted; 
 (c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations
shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement, the other Debt Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein
shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or 

(d) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Secured Party as security for any of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall fail to be perfected. 
 The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all
notices whatsoever (except as expressly required by this Agreement or any other Debt Document), and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement, the other Debt
Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

3.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Section 3 shall be automatically reinstated if and to
the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and such holder of a Guaranteed
Obligation has returned to the 

  
 26 

 
Borrower or its designee any such rescinded payment, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree
that they will indemnify the Secured Parties on demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and other charges of counsel (but excluding the allocated costs of internal counsel))
incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar
payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
 3.04 Subrogation. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally
agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than unasserted, contingent obligations), and the expiration and termination of all letters of credit or commitments to extend credit under all Debt
Documents, they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 3.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
 3.05 Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally
agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Secured Parties, a Guaranteed Obligation may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in the respective Debt Document therefor including, in the case of the Revolving Credit
Facility, the provisions specifying the existence of an event of default (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided therein including, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, such
provisions) for purposes of Section 3.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantors and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the
Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 3.01. 
 3.06 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Section 3 is a
continuing guarantee of payment (and not of collection), and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising. 
 3.07
Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Section 3 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Secured Party, at its sole
option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall (to the extent permitted under applicable law) have the right to bring motion action under New York CPLR Section 3213. 

3.08 Rights of Contribution. The Obligors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Subsidiary Guarantor shall become an Excess
Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any 

  
 27 

 
Guaranteed Obligations, then each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount
equal to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in
respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 3.08 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the
obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Section 3 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such
obligations. 
 For purposes of this Section 3.08, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any
Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an
Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the
aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock or other equity interest of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor
(including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary
Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of the Borrower and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured
and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Obligors hereunder) of the Borrower and all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party hereto on the date hereof, as
of the date hereof, and (B) with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as of the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. 

3.09 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate or other law, or any
Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 3.01 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of
Section 3.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof
to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Secured Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not
subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. 

  
 28 

 3.10 Indemnity by Borrower. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as
the Subsidiary Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3.04), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such
Subsidiary Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of
any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part the Guaranteed Obligations, the Borrower shall indemnify such Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to the fair market
value of the assets so sold. 
 3.11 Keepwell. 

Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or
other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its obligations under the guarantee contained in this Section 3 in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall
only be liable under this Section 3.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 3.11, or otherwise under the guarantee contained in this Section 3, as it
relates to such other Obligor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and
effect until payment in full of all the Secured Obligations (other than in respect of indemnities and contingent Obligations not then due and payable). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 3.11 constitute, and this
Section 3.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Obligor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 

Section 4. Collateral. As collateral security for the payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) of its Secured Obligations, each Obligor hereby pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as hereinafter provided a security interest in all of such Obligor’s right, title and interest in, to
and under all of the following property and assets, in each case whether tangible or intangible, wherever located, and whether now owned by such Obligor or hereafter acquired and whether now existing or hereafter coming into existence (all of the
property described in this Section 4, other than the property excluded pursuant to the proviso to this Section 4, being collectively referred to herein as “Collateral”):

Security Entitlements with respect thereto and Financial Assets carried therein, and all 

  
 29 

 
Commodity Accounts and Commodity Contracts), all letters of credit and Letter-of-Credit Rights, all Money and all Goods (including Inventory and Equipment), and all Commercial Tort Claims; 

(b) to the extent related to any Collateral, all Supporting Obligations; 

(c) to the extent related to any Collateral, all books, correspondence, credit files, records, invoices and other papers
(including all tapes, cards, computer runs and other papers and documents in the possession or under the control of such Obligor or any computer bureau or service company from time to time acting for such Obligor); and 

(d) all Proceeds of any of the foregoing Collateral. 

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (1) in no event shall the security interest granted under this Section 4 attach to (and there shall be excluded from the
definition of “Collateral”) (A) any contract, property rights, obligation, instrument or agreement to which an Obligor is a party (or to any of its rights or interests thereunder) if the grant of such security interest would
constitute or result in either (i) the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of any right, title or interest of such Obligor therein or (ii) a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default under, any such contract,
property rights, obligation, instrument or agreement (other than to the extent that any such terms would be rendered ineffective by Section 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the relevant jurisdiction),
or (B) any Excluded Assets, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement, the term “Collateral” shall not include, and the Obligors shall not be deemed to have granted a security interest in, any Excluded
Assets and (2) the Obligors, may by notice to the Collateral Agent, exclude from the grant of a security interest provided above in this Section 4 (and exclude from the definition of “Collateral”), any Special Equity Interests
designated by the Borrower in reasonable detail to the Collateral Agent in such notice (it being understood that the Borrower may at any later time rescind any such designation by similar notice to the Collateral Agent). 

Section 5. Certain Agreements Among Secured Parties. 

5.01 Priorities; Additional Collateral. 

(a) Pari Passu Status of Obligations. Each Secured Party by acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other
Security Documents agrees that their respective interests in the Security Documents and the Collateral shall rank pari passu and that the Secured Obligations shall be equally and ratably secured by the Security Documents subject to the terms
hereof and the priority of payment established in Section 8.06. 
 (b) Sharing of Guaranties and Liens. Each
Secured Party by acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents agrees that (i) such Secured Party will not accept from any Subsidiary of the 

  
 30 

 
Borrower any guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations unless such guarantor simultaneously guarantees the payment of all of the Guaranteed Obligations owed to all Secured Parties and
(ii) such Secured Party will not hold, take, accept or obtain any Lien upon any assets of any Obligor or any Subsidiary of the Borrower to secure the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations except and to the extent that such Lien is
in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or another Security Document to which the Collateral Agent is a party for the benefit of all of the Secured Parties as provided herein. 

Anything in this Section, or any other provision of this Agreement, to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall be inapplicable to
any debtor-in-possession financing that may be provided by any Secured Party to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, and no consent or approval of any other Secured Party shall be
required as a condition to the provision by any Secured Party of any such financing, and no other Secured Party shall be entitled to share in any Lien upon any Collateral granted to any Secured Party to secure repayment of such debtor-in-possession
financing; provided, that no Secured Party shall be barred from objecting to any such financing on the basis of adequate protection or any other grounds. 

5.02 Turnover of Collateral. If a Secured Party acquires custody, control or possession of any Collateral or the Proceeds therefrom,
other than pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or on account of any payment that is not expressly prohibited hereby, such Secured Party shall promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) cause such Collateral or Proceeds to be Delivered
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Until such time as such Secured Party shall have complied with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, such Secured Party shall be deemed to hold such Collateral and Proceeds in
trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. 
 5.03 Cooperation of Secured Parties. Each Secured Party will cooperate with the
Collateral Agent and with each other Secured Party in the enforcement of the Liens upon the Collateral and otherwise in order to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the Security Documents. 

5.04 Limitation upon Certain Independent Actions by Secured Parties. No Secured Party shall have any right to institute any action or
proceeding to enforce any term or provision of the Security Documents or to enforce any of its rights in respect of the Collateral or to exercise any other remedy pursuant to the Security Documents or at law or in equity, for the purpose of
realizing on the Collateral, or by reason of jeopardy of any Collateral, or for the execution of any trust or power hereunder (collectively, the “Specified Actions”), unless the Required Secured Parties have delivered written
instructions to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have failed to act in accordance with such instructions within 30 days thereafter. In such case but not otherwise, the Required Secured Parties may appoint one Person to act on
behalf of the Secured Parties solely to take any of the Specified Actions (the “Appointed Party”), and, upon the acceptance of its appointment as Appointed Party, the Appointed Party shall be

  
 31 

 
entitled to commence proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction or to take any other Specified Actions as the Collateral Agent might have taken pursuant to this Agreement or the Security
Documents (in accordance with the directions of the Required Secured Parties). The Obligors acknowledge and agree that should the Appointed Party act in accordance with this provision, such Appointed Party will have all the rights, remedies,
benefits and powers as are granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto or pursuant to any Security Documents. 
 5.05 No
Challenges. In no event shall any Secured Party take any action to challenge, contest or dispute the validity, extent, enforceability, or priority of the Collateral Agent’s Liens hereunder or under any other Security Document with respect
to any of the Collateral, or that would have the effect of invalidating any such Lien or support any Person who takes any such action. Each of the Secured Parties agrees that it will not take any action to challenge, contest or dispute the validity,
enforceability or secured status of any other Secured Party’s claims against any Obligor (other than any such claim resulting from a breach of this Agreement by a Secured Party, or any challenge, contest or dispute alleging arithmetical error
in the determination of a claim), or that would have the effect of invalidating any such claim, or support any Person who takes any such action. 

5.06 Rights of Secured Parties as to Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of each
Secured Party to receive payment of the Secured Obligations held by such Secured Party when due (whether at the stated maturity thereof, by acceleration or otherwise) as expressed in any instrument evidencing or agreement governing such Secured
Obligations, or to institute suit for the enforcement of such payment on or after such due date, and the obligation of the Obligors to pay their respective Secured Obligations when due, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such
Secured Party given in accordance with the Debt Documents to which such Secured Party is a party or its Secured Obligations are bound; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each Secured Party agrees that it will not attempt to
exercise remedies with respect to any Collateral except as provided in this Agreement. 
 Section 6. Designation of Designated
Indebtedness; Recordkeeping, Etc. 
 6.01 Designation of Other Indebtedness. The Borrower may at any time designate as
“Designated Indebtedness” hereunder any Indebtedness intended by the Borrower to be secured that satisfies at the time of incurrence the terms and conditions of the definition of “Secured Longer-Term Indebtedness” in the
Revolving Credit Facility and the other provisions of the Revolving Credit Facility (as long as the Credit Agreement Obligations are outstanding (other than unasserted contingent obligations)), such designation to be effected by delivery to the
Collateral Agent of a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A or in such other form approved by the Collateral Agent (a “Notice of Designation”), which notice shall identify such Indebtedness, provide that such
Indebtedness be designated as “Designated Indebtedness” hereunder 

  
 32

effect to such designation and the incurrence of such Designated Indebtedness, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

(b) attaching (and certifying as true and complete) copies of the material Designated Indebtedness Documents for such
Designated Indebtedness (including all schedules and exhibits, and all amendments or supplements, thereto); and 
 (c)
identifying the Financing Agent, if any, for such Designated Indebtedness (or, if there is no Financing Agent for such Designated Indebtedness, identifying each holder of such Designated Indebtedness). 

No such designation shall be effective unless and until the Borrower and such Financing Agent (or, if there is no Financing Agent, each holder
of such Designated Indebtedness) shall have executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent (x) a joinder substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E or (y) an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent, appropriately completed and duly executed and delivered by each party thereto, pursuant to which such Financing Agent (or, if there is no Financing Agent, such holder) shall have become a party hereto and assumed the obligations of
a Financing Agent (or holder) hereunder, as applicable. 
 6.02 Recordkeeping. The Collateral Agent will maintain books and records
necessary to enable it to determine at any time all transactions under this Agreement which have occurred on or prior to such time. Each Obligor agrees that such books and records maintained in good faith by the Collateral Agent shall be conclusive

 Section 7. Covenants of the Obligors. In furtherance of the grant of the security
interest pursuant to Section 4, each Obligor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as follows: 

7.01 Delivery and Other Perfection. 

(a) With respect to any Portfolio Investment or other Collateral as to which physical possession by the Collateral Agent or the Custodian is
required in order for such Portfolio Investment or Collateral to have been “Delivered”, such Obligor shall take such actions as shall be necessary to effect Delivery thereof within ten (10) days after the acquisition thereof by an
Obligor with respect to any such Portfolio Investment or Collateral acquired after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any instrument, promissory note, agreement, document or certificate held by the
Custodian is destroyed or lost not as a result of any action of the Borrower, then: (a) in the case of any Investment in Indebtedness which requires delivery of a promissory note as described in Schedule 1.01(d)(21) of the Credit Agreement, if
such destroyed or lost document is an original promissory note registered in name of an Obligor, such original promissory note shall constitute an “Undelivered Note” and the Borrower shall have up to 20 Business Days from the date when the
Borrower has knowledge of such loss or destruction to deliver to the Custodian a replacement promissory note; and (b) in the case of any other Indebtedness, if such destroyed instrument or document is an original or copy of a transfer document
or instrument, the Borrower shall have up to 20 Business Days from the date when the Borrower has knowledge of such loss or destruction to deliver to the Custodian a replacement instrument or document. As to all other Collateral, such Obligor shall
cause the same to be Delivered within three Business Days of the acquisition thereof, provided that Delivery shall not be required with respect to (1) accounts of the type described in clauses (A) – (E) of
Section 7.06 to the extent set forth therein, and (2) immaterial assets so long as (x) such assets are not included in the Borrowing Base, (y) the Collateral Agent has a perfected first priority lien (subject to Eligible Liens)
on such assets and no other Person exercises NYUCC Control over such assets and such assets have not been otherwise “Delivered” to any other Person, and (z) the aggregate value of such assets described in this Section 7.01(a)(2)
does not at any time exceed $75,000; and provided further that the proviso to clause (h) of the definition of “Delivery” does not apply to any participation in a loan held by an Obligor pursuant only to a customary
participation agreement (it being understood that under no circumstances will participations in a loan be included as an Eligible Portfolio Investment, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, whether or not such clause (h) has been
complied with). In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing (but subject to the limitations therein), each Obligor shall promptly from time to time give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain all such financing
statements, continuation statements, notices, instruments, documents, account control agreements or any other agreements or consents or other papers as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent to create, preserve, perfect,
maintain the perfection of or validate the security interest granted pursuant hereto or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights hereunder with respect to such security interest, and without limiting the foregoing, shall:

 (i) keep full and accurate books and records relating to the Collateral in all material respects; and 

  
 34 

 (ii) permit representatives of the Collateral Agent, upon reasonable prior
notice, all at such reasonable times during normal business hours, to inspect and make abstracts from its books and records pertaining to the Collateral, and permit representatives of the Collateral Agent to be present at such Obligor’s place
of business to receive copies of communications and remittances relating to the Collateral, and forward copies of any notices or communications received by such Obligor with respect to the Collateral, all in such manner as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably require; provided that each such Obligor shall be entitled to have its representatives and advisors present during any inspection of its books and records at such Obligor’s place of business and the Collateral Agent shall not
conduct more than two (2) such inspections and visits in any calendar year unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of any subsequent inspections during such calendar year; provided that, between the
inspections under Section 5.06(a) of the Revolving Credit Facility and the inspections under this Section 7.01(a)(ii), there shall be not more than two inspections and visits to the offices of FB Income Advisor, LLC in any calendar year,
and two inspections and visits to the office of the Custodian in any calendar year, in each case unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of any subsequent inspections during such calendar year. 

(b) Unless released from the Collateral pursuant to Section 10.03(e) or (f), once any Portfolio Investment has been Delivered, the
Obligors shall not take or permit any action that would result in such Portfolio Investment no longer being Delivered hereunder and shall promptly from time to time give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain all such financing
statements, continuation statements, notices, instruments, documents, account control agreements or any other agreements or consents or other papers as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent to continue the Delivered
status of any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Obligors shall not terminate any arrangement with the Custodian unless and until a successor Custodian reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent has been appointed
and has executed all documentation necessary to continue the Delivered status of the Collateral, which documentation shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 

7.02 Name; Jurisdiction of Organization, Etc. Each Obligor agrees that (a) without providing at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the Collateral Agent (or such shorter period as may be approved by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion), such Obligor will not change its name, its place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or its
mailing address or organizational identification number if it has one, (b) if such Obligor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Obligor will forthwith notify the Collateral Agent of such
organizational identification number, and (c) such Obligor will not change its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure unless such change is specifically permitted hereby or by the Revolving Credit Facility
(as long as any of the Credit Agreement Obligations are outstanding (other than unasserted contingent obligations)) and such Obligor provides the Collateral Agent with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such permitted change (or
such shorter period approved by the Collateral Agent). 

  
 35 

 7.03 Other Liens, Financing Statements or Control. Except as otherwise permitted under the
Revolving Credit Facility (as long as any of the Credit Agreement Obligations are outstanding (other than unasserted contingent obligations)), and the applicable provisions of each other Debt Document, the Obligors shall not (a) create or
suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any Collateral, (b) file or suffer to be on file, or authorize or permit to be filed or to be on file, in any jurisdiction, any financing statement or like instrument with respect to any of the
Collateral in which the Collateral Agent is not named as the sole Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or (c) cause or permit any Person other than the Collateral Agent to have NYUCC Control of any Deposit Account,
Electronic Chattel Paper, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Right constituting part of the Collateral. 
 7.04 Transfer of
Collateral. Except as otherwise permitted under the Revolving Credit Facility and the other Debt Documents, the Obligors shall not sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of any Collateral. 

7.05 Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. As contemplated by the Revolving Credit Facility, new Subsidiaries of the Borrower formed or
acquired by the Borrower after the date hereof (other than a Financing Subsidiary, a CFC or a Transparent Subsidiary), existing Subsidiaries of the Borrower that after the date hereof cease to constitute Financing Subsidiaries, CFCs or Transparent
Subsidiaries under the Revolving Credit Facility, and any other Person that otherwise becomes a Subsidiary (other than a Financing Subsidiary, a CFC or a Transparent Subsidiary) within the meaning of the definition thereof, are required to become a
“Subsidiary Guarantor” under this Agreement, by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent a Guarantee Assumption Agreement in the form of Exhibit B hereto. Accordingly, upon the execution and delivery of any such
Guarantee Assumption Agreement by any such Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall automatically and immediately, and without any further action on the part of any Person, become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and an “Obligor” for all
purposes of this Agreement, and Annexes 2.05, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10 and 2.11 hereto shall be deemed to be supplemented in the manner specified in such Guarantee Assumption Agreement. In addition, upon
execution and delivery of any such Guarantee Assumption Agreement, the new Subsidiary Guarantor makes the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 as of the date of such Guarantee Assumption Agreement and shall be permitted to
update the Annexes with respect to such Subsidiary. 
 7.06 Control Agreements. No Obligor shall open or maintain any account with
any bank, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary (other than (A) any such accounts that are maintained by the Borrower in its capacity as “servicer” for a Financing Subsidiary or any Agency Account, (B) any such
accounts which hold solely money or financial assets of a Financing Subsidiary, (C) any payroll account so long as such payroll account is coded as such, (D) withholding tax and fiduciary accounts or any trust account maintained solely on
behalf of a Portfolio Investment, and (E) any 

  
 36 

 
account in which the aggregate value of deposits therein, together with all other such accounts under this clause (E), does not at any time exceed $75,000, provided that in the case of
each of the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), no other Person (other than the depository institution at which such account is maintained) shall have “control” over such account (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) and
such account shall not have been otherwise “Delivered” to any other Person) unless such Obligor has notified the Collateral Agent of such account and the Collateral Agent has NYUCC Control over such account pursuant to a control agreement
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 
 7.07 Revolving Credit Facility. Each Subsidiary Guarantor
agrees to perform, comply with and be bound by the covenants of each of the Revolving Credit Facility (as long as any of the Credit Agreement Obligations are outstanding (other than unasserted contingent obligations)) (which provisions are
incorporated herein by reference), applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor as if each Subsidiary Guarantor were a signatory to the Revolving Credit Facility. 

7.08 Pledged Equity Interests. 

(a) In the event any Obligor acquires rights in any Pledged Equity Interest after the date hereof or any Excluded Equity
Interest held by any Obligor becomes a Pledged Equity Interest after the date hereof because it ceases to constitute an Excluded Equity Interest, such Obligor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a completed Pledge Supplement, together with all
supplements to Annexes thereto, reflecting such new Pledged Equity Interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the security interest of the Collateral Agent shall attach to all Pledged Equity Interests immediately upon
any Obligor’s acquisition of rights therein and shall not be affected by the failure of any Obligor to deliver a supplement to Annex 2.07 as required hereby; and 

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, no Obligor shall vote to enable or take any other action to:
(a) amend or terminate any partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement, certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents in any way that materially and adversely changes the rights of such Obligor with
respect to any Pledged Equity Interest in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any Debt Document or that adversely affects the validity, perfection or priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest or the ability of
the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect to such Pledged Equity Interest, (b) other than as permitted under the Revolving Credit Facility and each other Debt Document, permit any issuer of any
Pledged Equity Interest to dispose of all or a material portion of their assets, or (c) cause any issuer of any Pledged Equity Interests which are interests in a partnership or limited liability company and which are not securities (for
purposes of the NYUCC) on the date hereof to elect or otherwise take any action to cause such Pledged Equity Interests to be treated as securities for purposes of the NYUCC; except if such Obligor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in
writing of any such election or action and, 

  
 37 

 
in such event, shall take all steps necessary or advisable in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable discretion to establish the Collateral Agent’s NYUCC Control thereof; and 

(c) Each Obligor consents to the grant by each other Obligor of a security interest in all Pledged Equity Interests to the
Collateral Agent and, without limiting the foregoing, consents to the transfer of any Pledged Equity Interest to the Collateral Agent or its nominee following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and to the substitution
of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a partner in any partnership or as a member in any limited liability company with all the rights and powers related thereto. 

7.09 Voting Rights, Dividends, Etc. in Respect of Pledged Interests. 

(a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 

(i) each Obligor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to any Pledged Interests for any
purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any Debt Document; provided, however, that none of the Obligors will exercise or refrain from exercising any such right, as the case may be, if such action (or inaction)
could reasonably be expected to adversely affect in any material respect the value, liquidity or marketability of any Collateral in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any Debt Document or the creation, perfection and priority
of the Collateral Agent’s Lien or the ability of the Collateral Agent to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect to such Pledged Interest; 

(ii) each of the Obligors may receive and retain any and all dividends, interest or other distributions paid in respect of the
Pledged Interests to the extent not prohibited by the Debt Documents; provided, however, that (except with respect to any Pledged Debt that is also a Portfolio Investment) any and all (A) dividends and interest paid or payable
other than in cash in respect of, and Instruments and other property received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for, any Pledged Interests, (B) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect
of any Pledged Interests in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, and (C) cash paid, payable or otherwise distributed in redemption of, or
in exchange for, any Pledged Interests, together with any dividend, interest or other distribution or payment which at the time of such payment was not permitted by the Debt Documents, shall be, and shall forthwith be delivered to the Collateral
Agent to hold as, Pledged Interests and shall, if received by any of the Obligors, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from the other property or funds of the Obligors, and shall be forthwith delivered
to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received with any necessary indorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged 

  
 38 

 
Interests and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations, provided that the Obligors shall be permitted to take any action with respect to the cash described in
(B) and (C) not prohibited by the other Debt Documents; and 
 (iii) the Collateral Agent will execute and deliver
(or cause to be executed and delivered) to any Obligor all such proxies and other instruments as such Obligor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Obligor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise
pursuant to Section 7.09(a)(i) hereof and to receive the dividends, interest and/or other distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 7.09(a)(ii) hereof. 

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

(i) all rights of each Obligor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to
exercise pursuant to Section 7.09(a)(i) hereof, and to receive the dividends, distributions, interest and other payments that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 7.09(a)(ii) hereof, shall
cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Pledged Interests such dividends,
distributions and interest payments; 
 (ii) the Collateral Agent is authorized to notify each debtor with respect to the
Pledged Debt or other Portfolio Investments to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) and may collect any and all moneys due or to become due to any Obligor in respect of the Pledged Debt or other Portfolio Investments, and
each of the Obligors hereby authorizes each such debtor to make such payment directly to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) without any duty of inquiry; 

(iii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may at its option exercise any and all rights of
conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to any of the Pledged Interests or any Portfolio Investments as if it were the absolute owner thereof, including, without limitation, the right to exchange, in
its discretion, any and all of the Pledged Interests or any Portfolio Investments upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other adjustment of any issuer thereof, or upon the exercise by any such issuer of any right,
privilege or option pertaining to any Pledged Interests or any Portfolio Investments, and, in connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Interests or any Portfolio Investments with any committee, depository, transfer
agent, registrar or other designated agent upon such terms and conditions as it may determine; and 
 (iv) all dividends,
distributions, interest and other payments that are received by any of the Obligors contrary to the provisions of 

  
 39 

 
Section 7.09(b)(i) hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of the Obligors, and shall be forthwith paid over to
the Collateral Agent as Pledged Interests in the exact form received with any necessary indorsement and/or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by the Collateral Agent as Pledged Interests and as further collateral security
for the Secured Obligations. 
 7.10 Commercial Tort Claims. Each Obligor agrees that with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim in
excess of $100,000 individually hereafter arising it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a completed Pledge Supplement, together with all supplements to Annexes thereto, identifying such new Commercial Tort Claims. 

7.11 Intellectual Property. Each Obligor hereby covenants and agrees as follows: 

(a) it shall not do any act or omit to do any act whereby any of the Intellectual Property which such Obligor determines in its
reasonable business judgment is material to the business of such Obligor may lapse, or become abandoned, dedicated to the public, or unenforceable, or which would adversely affect the validity, grant, or enforceability of the security interest
granted therein; 
 (b) it shall not, with respect to any Trademarks which such Obligor determines in its reasonable business
judgment are material to the business of such Obligor, cease the use of any of such Trademarks or fail to maintain the level of the quality of products sold and services rendered under any such Trademark at a level which such Obligor determines in
its reasonable business judgment to be appropriate to maintain the value of such Trademarks, and each Obligor shall take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that licensees of such Trademarks use such consistent standards of quality; 

(c) it shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent if it knows or has reason to know that any item of the Intellectual Property
that in its reasonable business judgment is material to the business of any Obligor may become (a) abandoned or dedicated to the public or placed in the public domain, (b) invalid or unenforceable, or (c) subject to any material
adverse determination or development (including the institution of proceedings) in any action or proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, any state registry, any foreign counterpart of the
foregoing, or any court, other than in the ordinary course of prosecuting and/or maintaining the applications or registrations of such Intellectual Property; 

(d) it shall take all reasonable steps in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office,
any state registry or any foreign counterpart of the foregoing, to pursue any application and maintain any registration of each Trademark, Patent, and Copyright owned by any Obligor that such Obligor determines in its reasonable business judgment is
material to its business which is now or shall become included in the Intellectual Property Collateral; 

  
 40 

 (e) in the event that it has knowledge that any Intellectual Property owned by or
exclusively licensed to any Obligor is infringed, misappropriated, or diluted by a third party, such Obligor shall, except as it determines otherwise in its reasonable business judgment, promptly take all reasonable actions to stop such
infringement, misappropriation, or dilution and protect its rights in such Intellectual Property including, but not limited to, the initiation of a suit for injunctive relief and to recover damages; 

(f) it shall promptly (but in no event more than thirty (30) days after any Obligor obtains knowledge thereof) report to
the Collateral Agent (i) the filing by or on behalf of such Obligor of any application to register any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, or any state registry or
foreign counterpart of the foregoing and (ii) the registration of any Intellectual Property owned by such Obligor by any such office, in each case by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent a completed Pledge Supplement, together with
all supplements to Annexes thereto; 
 (g) it shall, promptly upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, execute
and deliver to the Collateral Agent any document required to acknowledge, confirm, register, record, or perfect the Collateral Agent’s interest in any part of the Intellectual Property Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by or
on behalf of such Obligor, including, without limitation, intellectual property security agreements in the form of Exhibit C hereto; 

(h) it shall hereafter use commercially reasonable efforts so as not to permit the inclusion in any contract to which it
hereafter becomes a party of any provision that could or might in any way materially impair or prevent the creation of a security interest in, or the assignment of, such Obligor’s rights and interests in any property included within the
definitions of any Intellectual Property acquired under such contracts; 
 (i) it shall take all steps reasonably necessary
to protect the secrecy of all Trade Secrets, including, without limitation, entering into confidentiality agreements with employees and labeling and restricting access to secret information and documents; and 

(j) it shall continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due to such Obligor in respect of the
Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof. In connection with such collections, each Obligor may take (and, while an Event of Default exists at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable direction, shall take) such action as such Obligor
or the Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to enforce collection of such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, to notify, or require
any Obligor to notify, any obligors with respect to any such amounts of the existence of the security interest created hereby. 

  
 41 

 Section 8. Acceleration Notice; Remedies; Distribution of Collateral. 

8.01 Notice of Acceleration. Upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written notice from any Secured Party which (i) expressly
refers to this Agreement, (ii) describes an event or condition which has occurred and is continuing and (iii) expressly states that such event or condition constitutes an Acceleration as defined herein, the Collateral Agent shall promptly
notify each other party hereto of the receipt and contents thereof (any such notice is referred to herein as a “Acceleration Notice”). 

8.02 Preservation of Rights. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior
parties to any of the Collateral. 
 8.03 Events of Default, Etc. During the period during which an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing: 
 (a) each Obligor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, assemble the Collateral owned
by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and such Obligor, designated in the Collateral Agent’s request; 

(b) the Collateral Agent may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the
Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral; 

(c) the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in
any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including the right, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the
Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and each Obligor agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right); 

(d) the Collateral Agent in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of any Obligor or otherwise, demand, sue for,
collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and 

(e) the Collateral Agent may, upon reasonable prior notice (provided that at least ten Business Days’ prior notice
shall be deemed to be reasonable) to the Obligors of the time and place (or, if such sale is to take place on the NYSE or 

  
 42 

 
any other established exchange or market, prior to the time of such sale or other disposition), with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come
into the possession, custody or control of the Collateral Agent, the other Secured Parties or any of their respective agents, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent
deems appropriate, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of the time or place
thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or anyone else may be the purchaser, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so
disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale) and thereafter, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity
of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Obligors, any such demand, notice and right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released, to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned
from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the sale may be so adjourned. 

The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section shall be applied in accordance with Section 8.06. 

The Obligors recognize that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state
securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment
and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Obligors acknowledge that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such
restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that to the extent any such private sale is conducted by the Collateral Agent in a commercially reasonable manner, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales
and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Obligors, or the issuer thereof, to register it for public sale. 

8.04 Deficiency. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 8.03 are
insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Obligors shall remain liable for any deficiency. 

8.05 Private Sale. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or
any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to Section 8.03 conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Each 

  
 43 

 
Obligor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private
sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more
than one offeree, so long as such private sale was conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. 
 8.06 Application of Proceeds.
Except as otherwise herein expressly provided in this Section 8.06, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to exercise of any remedies under Section 8 of this Agreement, the proceeds of any
collection, sale or other realization by the Collateral Agent of all or any part of the Collateral of any Obligor (including any other cash of any Obligor at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Agreement in respect of Collateral or in
respect of the guaranty obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Agreement) shall be applied by the Collateral Agent as follows: 

First, to the payment of reasonable and documented costs and expenses of such collection, sale or other realization,
including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of its agents and counsel, and all expenses incurred and advances made by the Collateral Agent in
connection therewith; 
 Second, to the payment of any fees and other amounts then owing by such Obligor to the
Collateral Agent in its capacity as such; 
 Third, to the payment of the Secured Obligations (including the provision
of cash collateral for any outstanding letters of credit) of such Obligor then due and payable, in each case to each Secured Party ratably in accordance with the amount of Secured Obligations then due and payable to such Secured Party (it being
understood that, for the purposes hereof, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be deemed then due and payable whether or not any Acceleration of such loans has occurred); and 

Fourth, after application as provided in clauses “First, “Second” and
“Third” above, to the payment to the respective Obligor, or their respective successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, of any surplus then remaining. 

For the avoidance of doubt, payments made pursuant to Sections 2.09(b), (c), (d) and (e) of the Revolving Credit Facility (or
any analogous provisions in any amendment, modification, supplement, amendment and restatement, extension, refinancing or replacement thereof) shall not be subject to this Section 8.06 or to Section 5.02 unless the Collateral Agent, after
the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, has directed the actions giving rise to such payments. In making the allocations required by this Section, the Collateral Agent may rely upon its records and information supplied to it pursuant
to Section 9.02, and the

Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the other Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information, except to the extent of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, at the time of any application under this Section, withhold all or any portion of the proceeds otherwise to be applied to the Secured Obligations as provided above and maintain the same in a
segregated cash collateral account in the name and under the exclusive NYUCC Control of the Collateral Agent, to the extent that it in good faith believes that the information provided to it pursuant to Section 9.02 is either incomplete or
inaccurate and that application of the full amount of such proceeds to the Secured Obligations would be disadvantageous to any Secured Party. All distributions made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall be final (subject to any
decree of any court of competent jurisdiction), and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the other Secured Parties of any amounts distributed to them. 

8.07 Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent while no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of each Obligor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this
Section 8 and taking any action and executing any instruments which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an
interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Collateral Agent shall be entitled under this Section 8 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive,
endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of any Obligor representing any dividend, payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. 

8.08 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies hereunder at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Obligor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, if and only to
the extent of such Obligor’s rights to grant the same, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral (other than any Excluded Assets) now owned or hereafter acquired by
such Obligor. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. 

8.09 Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Collateral Agent take, or be permitted
to take, any Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral without at least three Business Days prior notice to the Secured Parties, and will refrain from taking such Enforcement Action if so directed by the Required Secured Parties during such
three Business Day period, provided that the Collateral Agent may take such Enforcement Action during such three Business Day period if so directed by the Required Secured Parties. 

  
 45 

 8.10 Exercise of Control. With respect to any Deposit Account or Securities Account over
which the Collateral Agent has Control, the Collateral Agent shall not deliver any direction for the disposition of funds or other property, entitlement order or notice of exclusive control (any such action, a “Control Action”)
unless an Event of Default has occurred (it being understood that, once the Collateral Agent has commenced taking any Control Action, such action or actions shall continue until the Collateral Agent is directed otherwise by the requisite number of
lenders). 
 Section 9. The Collateral Agent. 

9.01 Appointment; Powers and Immunities. Each Revolving Lender, the Revolving Administrative Agent, each Financing Agent and, by
acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, each Designated Indebtedness Holder hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes ING to act as its agent hereunder with such powers as are specifically delegated to the
Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 9.06 and the first sentence of Section 9.07
shall include reference to its Affiliates and its own and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents): 

(a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and shall not by reason of this
Agreement be a trustee for, or a fiduciary with respect to, any Revolving Lender or Designated Indebtedness Holder; 
 (b)
shall not be responsible to the Revolving Lenders, the Revolving Administrative Agent, the Financing Agents or the Designated Indebtedness Holders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any
notice delivered hereunder, or in any other certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by it under, this Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Obligors or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder; 

(c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder except, subject to
Section 9.07, for any such litigation or proceedings relating to the enforcement of the guarantee set forth in Section 3, or the Liens created pursuant to Section 4; and 

(d) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other document or
instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  
 46 

 9.02 Information Regarding Secured Parties. The Borrower will at such times and from time
to time as shall be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, supply a list in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent setting forth the amount of the Secured Obligations held by each Secured Party (excluding, so long as
ING is both the Collateral Agent and the Revolving Administrative Agent, the Credit Agreement Obligations) as at a date specified in such request. The Collateral Agent shall provide any such list to any Secured Party upon request. The Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon such information, and such information shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of this Agreement, except to the extent the Collateral Agent shall have been notified by a Secured Party that such
information as set forth on any such list is inaccurate or in dispute between such Secured Party and the Borrower. 
 9.03 Reliance by
Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram, cable or electronic mail) believed by it in good faith to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent. As to any matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by (i) the Required Secured Parties or
(ii) where expressly permitted for in Section 10.03, the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Designated Indebtedness Holders, as applicable, and such instructions of (i) the Required Secured Parties or (ii) where
expressly permitted for in Section 10.03, the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Designated Indebtedness Holders, as applicable, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Secured Parties. If
in one or more instances the Collateral Agent takes any action or assumes any responsibility not specifically delegated to it pursuant to this Agreement, neither the taking of such action nor the assumption of such responsibility shall be deemed to
be an express or implied undertaking on the part of the Collateral Agent that it will take the same or similar action or assume the same or similar responsibility in any other instance. 

9.04 Rights as a Secured Party. With respect to its obligation to extend credit under the Revolving Credit Facility, ING (and any
successor acting as Collateral Agent) in its capacity as a Revolving Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Secured Party and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as
Collateral Agent, and the term “Secured Party” or “Secured Parties” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity. ING (and any successor acting as Collateral Agent) and
its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any other Secured Party) accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any of the Obligors (and any of
their Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if it were not acting as Collateral Agent, and ING and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any of the Obligors for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to the other Secured Parties. 

  
 47 

 9.05 Indemnification. Each Revolving Lender and each Designated Indebtedness Holder by
acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent and each Related Party of the Collateral Agent (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) (to the extent not
reimbursed under Section 10.04, but without limiting the obligations of the Obligors under Section 10.04) ratably in accordance with the aggregate Secured Obligations held by the Revolving Lenders and the Designated Indebtedness Holders,
for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee (including by
any other Secured Party) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in connection with or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Debt Documents, or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or
therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the costs and expenses that the Obligors are obligated to pay under Section 10.04, but excluding, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, normal
administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided, that no Revolving Lender or Designated
Indebtedness Holder shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to
be indemnified. 
 9.06 Non-Reliance on Collateral Agent and Other Secured Parties. The Revolving Administrative Agent and each
Financing Agent (and each Revolving Lender and each Designated Indebtedness Holder by acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents) agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Collateral Agent or
any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors and their Subsidiaries and decision to extend credit to the Borrower in
reliance on this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and any Debt Document to which it is a party. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the
performance or observance by any Obligor of this Agreement, any other Debt Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any Obligor. The Collateral Agent shall not have any
duty or responsibility to provide any other Secured Party with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries (or any of their Affiliates) that may come into the
possession of the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates, except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the other Secured Parties by the Collateral Agent hereunder. 

  
 48 

 9.07 Failure to Act. Except for action expressly required of the Collateral Agent
hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the other Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations under
Section 9.05 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that in the judgment of the Collateral
Agent would violate any applicable law. 
 9.08 Resignation of Collateral Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Collateral Agent as provided below, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the other Secured Parties and the Obligors. Upon any such resignation, the Required Secured Parties shall have the right, with the
consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld provided that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been
so appointed by the Required Secured Parties and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s giving of written notice of resignation of the retiring Collateral Agent, then the retiring Collateral
Agent may, on behalf of the other Secured Parties, appoint a successor Collateral Agent, that shall be a financial institution that has an office in New York, New York and has a combined capital and surplus and undivided profits of at
least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this
Section 9 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Collateral Agent shall be the same as
those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor, and such payment to be made as and when invoiced by the successor Collateral Agent. 

9.09 Agents and Attorneys-in-Fact. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. 
 Section 10.
Miscellaneous. 
 10.01 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other demands hereunder and other communications provided
for herein shall be given or made in writing, (a) to any party hereto, telecopied, (to the extent provided in the Revolving Credit Facility) e-mailed or delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below
its name on the signature pages to this Agreement or, in the case of any Financing Agent or Designated Indebtedness Holder that shall become a 

  
 49 

 
party hereto after the date hereof, at such “Address for Notices” as shall be specified pursuant to or in connection with the joinder agreement executed and delivered by such Financing
Agent or Designated Indebtedness Holder pursuant to Section 6.01 (provided that notices to any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be given to such Subsidiary Guarantor care of the Borrower at the address for the Borrower specified herein) or
(b) as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. All notices to any Revolving Lender or Designated Indebtedness Holder that is not a party hereto shall be given to the
Revolving Administrative Agent or Financing Agent for such Designated Indebtedness Holder. 
 10.02 No Waiver. No failure on the part
of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by
any Secured Party of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

 10.03 Amendments to Security Documents, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in any Security Document, the terms of this Agreement
and the other Security Documents may be waived, altered or amended only by an instrument in writing duly executed by each Obligor and the Collateral Agent, with the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Designated Indebtedness
Holders; provided, that, subject to the provisions related to “Defaulting Lenders” (or equivalent term) in the Revolving Credit Facility: 

(a) no such amendment shall adversely affect the relative rights of any Secured Party as against any other Secured Party
without the prior written consent of such first Secured Party; 
 (b) without the prior written consent of (x) each of
the Revolving Lenders and (y) the Required Designated Indebtedness Holders, the Collateral Agent shall not release all or substantially all of the collateral under the Security Documents or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary
Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under Section 3 hereof (and if any amounts have become due and payable in respect of any Hedging Agreement Obligations, and such amounts shall have remained unpaid for 30 or more days, then the prior
written consent (voting as a single group) of the holders of a majority in interest of the Hedging Agreement Obligations will also be required to release all or substantially all of such collateral or guarantee obligations); 

(c) without the consent of each of the Secured Parties, no modification, supplement or waiver shall modify the definition of
the term “Required Secured Parties” or modify in any other manner the number of percentage of the Secured Parties required to make any determinations or waive any rights under any Security Document; 

  
 50 

 (d) without the consent of the Collateral Agent, no modification, supplement or
waiver shall modify the terms of Section 9; 
 (e) the Collateral Agent is authorized to release (and shall, promptly
following request by the Borrower, release) any Collateral that is either the subject of a disposition not prohibited under either the Revolving Credit Facility or the Designated Indebtedness Documents (including a disposition to a Financing
Subsidiary), or to which the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Designated Indebtedness Holders shall have consented and will, at the Obligors’ expense, execute and deliver to any Obligor such documents (including, without limitation,
any UCC termination statements, lien releases, re-assignments of trademarks, discharges of security interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form)) as such Obligor shall reasonably request to
evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby; notwithstanding the foregoing, Portfolio Investments constituting Collateral shall be automatically released from the lien of this Agreement
and the other Security Documents, without any action of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, in connection with any disposition of Portfolio Investments that (i) occurs in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business and
(ii) is not prohibited under any of the Debt Documents; and 
 (f) the Collateral Agent is authorized to release (and
shall, promptly following request by the Borrower, release) any Subsidiary Guarantor from any of its guarantee obligations under Section 3 hereof to the extent such Subsidiary is (x) the subject of a disposition not prohibited under the
Debt Documents, (y) ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction not prohibited under the Debt Documents, or (z) to which each of the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Designated Indebtedness Holders shall have
consented, and, upon such release, the Collateral Agent is authorized to release (and shall, promptly following request by the Borrower, release) any collateral security granted by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and under the other Security
Documents and will, at the Obligors’ expense, execute and deliver to any Obligor such documents (including, without limitation, any UCC termination statements, lien releases, re-assignments of trademarks, discharges of security interests, and
other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form)) as such Obligor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted hereby. 

Any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Collateral Agent, each Secured Party and each Obligor. In connection with any release
of Collateral from the Lien of this Agreement and the other Security Documents, the Collateral Agent will promptly (i) execute and deliver assignments, bills of sale, termination statements and other releases and instruments (in recordable form
if appropriate) provided for signature by the Borrower or the applicable Obligor, (ii) deliver any portion of the Collateral in its possession, and (iii) otherwise take such actions, and cause or permit the Custodian to take such actions,
in each case as the Borrower may reasonably request in order to effect the release and transfer of such Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing 

  
 51 

 
to the contrary, if the Termination Date shall have occurred with respect to any Class, then the consent rights of such Class (and the related Required Revolving Lenders or Required Designated
Indebtedness Holders) under this Section 10.03 shall terminate. 
 10.04 Expenses: Indemnity: Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Obligors hereby jointly and severally agree to reimburse the Collateral Agent and each of the other Secured
Parties and their respective Affiliates for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by them (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of legal counsel (and excluding the allocated costs
of internal counsel)) in connection with (i) any Event of Default and any enforcement or collection proceeding resulting therefrom, including all manner of participation in or other involvement with (w) performance by the Collateral Agent
of any obligations of the Obligors in respect of the Collateral that the Obligors have failed or refused to perform in the time period required under this Agreement, (x) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up or
liquidation proceedings of any Obligor, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and
claims of the Collateral Agent in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, (y) judicial or regulatory proceedings arising from or related to this Agreement and (z) workout, restructuring or other
negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated) and (ii) the enforcement of this Section, and all such costs and expenses shall be Secured Obligations entitled to the
benefits of the collateral security provided pursuant to Section 4. 
 (b) Indemnification by the Obligors. The Obligors shall
indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any
Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties
hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether
any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses that (1) are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, (2) result from a claim brought against such Indemnitee for breach of such Indemnitee’s
obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, if there has been a final and nonappealable judgment against such Indemnitee on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (3) result from a claim arising as a
result of a dispute between Indemnitees (other than (x) any dispute involving claims against the Administrative Agent, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and (y) claims arising out of any act or omission by the Borrower
or its Affiliates). 

  
 52 

 Neither the Borrower nor any Obligor shall be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement asserted by an Indemnitee against the Borrower or any other Obligor; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the
Obligations of the Borrower under the preceding provisions of this subsection. 
 10.05 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the Obligors and the Secured Parties (provided that none of the Obligors shall assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of each of the Collateral Agent, the Revolving Administrative Agent or the agent, trustee or representative for the Designated Indebtedness Holder, if any (or if there is no such agent, trustee or representative, the Required
Designated Indebtedness Holders)). 
 10.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Collateral Agent
constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Collateral Agent and when the Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopy or electronic mail (including .pdf format) shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words
“execution,” “signed,” “signature” shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually
executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York
State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 10.07
Severability. If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be
liberally construed in favor of the Secured Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties 

  
 53 

 
hereto as nearly as may be possible and (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may
be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in
other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any
Obligor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Waiver of Venue. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

 (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices
in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

10.09 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT
NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES

  
 54 

 
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

10.10 Headings. Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 10.11
Termination. When all Secured Obligations of any Class have been paid in full (other than unasserted contingent obligations), all Commitments of the holders thereof to extend credit that would be Secured Obligations have expired or been
terminated and any letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility or any other Designated Indebtedness have (i) expired, (ii) terminated, (iii) been cash collateralized or (iv) otherwise backstopped in a manner
reasonably acceptable to the Revolving Administrative Agent or any applicable Financing Agent, as applicable, or any issuing bank, as applicable, in each case in accordance with the terms of the applicable Debt Documents, and all outstanding letter
of credit disbursements under any such Debt Documents then outstanding have been reimbursed, the Collateral Agent shall, on behalf of the holders of such Secured Obligations, deliver to the Obligors such termination statements and releases and other
documents necessary and appropriate to evidence the termination of all agreements, obligations and liens related to such Secured Obligations, as the Obligors may reasonably request all at the sole cost and expense of the Obligors; provided,
however, that the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation to do so under the circumstances set forth in the parenthetical provision in Section 10.03(b) except to the extent provided therein. 

10.12 Confidentiality. The Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that Section 9.13 of the Revolving Credit Facility will bind
the Collateral Agent to the same extent as it binds the Revolving Administrative Agent.

 Exhibit 10.3 

CONTROL AGREEMENT 

This Control Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated April 3, 2014 is by and among FS Investment Corporation (the
“Borrower”), ING Capital LLC, as collateral agent for the Lenders (as defined below) and certain other secured parties (in such capacity, including any successor in such capacity, the “Agent”), and State Street Bank
and Trust Company, a Massachusetts trust company (“Custodian”). 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Custodian are parties to
that certain Custodian Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2011 (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the “Custodian Agreement”), pursuant to which the Borrower has appointed Custodian to act as
custodian for its securities and other assets; 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower has entered into the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement,
dated as of the date hereof, among the Borrower, the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”), the Agent, as administrative agent for the Lenders and as Agent (the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which such Lenders have
agreed, subject to the terms and conditions therein specified, to extend credit to the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower and the Agent, among others, have entered into a Guarantee, Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the
“Security Agreement”) pursuant to which the Borrower, among other things, has agreed to pledge and grant a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under certain of its property, including the
Collateral Account (as defined below) and any cash, securities or other assets therein or otherwise held by the Custodian (collectively, the “Collateral”), in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, and certain
other secured parties, as collateral security for the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Agreement and certain other Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement); and 

WHEREAS, in connection with the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement, the Borrower intends to grant control (as defined in the Uniform
Commercial Code, as in effect from time to time in The State of New York (the “UCC”)) over the Collateral Account and possession of other Collateral to the Agent and the Agent, the Borrower and the Custodian are entering into this
Agreement to perfect the security interest of the Agent in the Collateral Account and provide for the control of the Collateral Account and possession of other Collateral. 

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. Establishment of Collateral Account. The Custodian has established and will maintain on its books and records the Borrower’s
(i) custodial account, Account No. 1012-642-3, which account and the assets credited thereto are pledged in favor of the Agent (the “Securities Account”), and (ii) deposit account, Account No. 1012-523-5, which
account and the assets credited thereto are pledged in favor of the Agent (together, the “Deposit Account” and together with the Securities Account, the “Collateral Account”). The Custodian will credit to the
Collateral Account any assets delivered to it by the Borrower pursuant to the Custodian Agreement except that Loan Documents and Identified Securities (as each such term is defined below) delivered to the Custodian shall be held by the Custodian
upon the terms of Section 5. The Custodian shall have no responsibility for determining the adequacy of any Collateral required hereunder or under the Loan Agreement, nor will it assume responsibility for any calculations related to any
Collateral requirements under the Loan Agreement. 

 2 Account Control. 

2.1 Agent Security Interest. This Agreement is intended by the Borrower and the Agent to grant “control” of the Collateral
Account and possession of other Collateral to the Agent for purposes of perfection of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral Account and other Collateral pursuant to Article 8 and Article 9 of the UCC and the Custodian hereby
acknowledges that it has been advised of the Borrower’s grant to Agent of a security interest in the Collateral and Collateral Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Custodian makes no representation or warranty with respect to the
creation, attachment, perfection, priority or enforceability of any security interest in the Collateral or Collateral Account. 
 2.2
Borrower Control. Unless and until the Custodian receives written notice from the Agent pursuant to Section 2.3(ii) below instructing the Custodian that the Agent is exercising its right to exclusive control over the Collateral Account,
which notice is substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”) and the Custodian has a reasonable time to act thereon, or if all previous Notices of Exclusive Control have been
revoked or rescinded in writing by the Agent: (i) the Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all rights with respect to, and to direct the Custodian with respect to, the Collateral Account, provided that the Borrower may not terminate the
Collateral Account without the prior written consent of the Agent, and (ii) the Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Agent or any Lender for settling trades of financial assets and cash carried in the Collateral Account at
the direction of and in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower given in accordance with the Custodian Agreement, or for complying with entitlement orders from the Borrower concerning the Collateral Account. 

2.3 Control by Agent. 

(i) The Borrower irrevocably authorizes and directs the Custodian, and the Custodian agrees, to comply with any entitlement
order or instructions (within the meaning of Sections 8-102, 9-104 and 9-106 of the UCC) received from the Agent with respect to the Collateral Account, without further consent of the Borrower. 

(ii) Upon receipt by the Custodian of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time to act thereon,
the Custodian shall thereafter follow only the instruction of the Agent with respect to the Collateral Account, and shall comply only with any entitlement order or instructions received from the Agent, without further consent of the Borrower, and
shall be entitled to deal with the Agent as though the Agent were the sole and absolute owner of the Collateral Account. Without limiting the Custodian’s obligations under Section 2.3(i) and (ii), Agent agrees that it shall deliver a
Notice of Exclusive Control prior to or simultaneously with any entitlement order or instruction. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time to act thereon, the
Borrower (whether directly or through its investment manager) shall have no right or ability to access or receive or withdraw or transfer financial assets from, or to give other instructions concerning the Collateral Account until such time as the
Agent shall have notified the Custodian in writing of the withdrawal of the Notice of Exclusive Control and instructed the Custodian to resume honoring instructions which the Borrower is entitled to give under the Custodian Agreement. 

(iii) As between the Borrower and the Agent, the Agent agrees with the Borrower that it shall not issue a Notice of Exclusive
Control or any entitlement order or instructions with respect to the Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.3(i) or (ii) unless an Event of Default (as defined in the Security Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing. 

  
 -2- 

 (iv) The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower for
complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or complying with entitlement orders or other instructions originated by the Agent concerning any Collateral or the Collateral Account. The Custodian shall have no duty to investigate or make any
determination as to whether an event of default or other like event exists under the Loan Agreement, and the Custodian shall be fully protected in complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control whether or not the Borrower may allege that no such event
of default or other like event exists. Delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control by the Agent to the Custodian shall be effective whether or not a copy of the same is delivered to the Borrower. 

(v) As between the Agent and the Custodian, notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in any other document or
instrument to the contrary, the Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken at the instruction of the Agent, or any action taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement, except for the
Custodian’s own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct in carrying out such instructions. 
 3. Distributions. The Custodian shall,
without further action by Borrower or Agent, credit to the Collateral Account all interest, dividends and other income received by the Custodian on the Collateral, unless and until the Custodian has received a Notice of Exclusive Control and has
been directed otherwise by the Agent, in which event all such receipts shall be credited to such account as directed by the Agent. 
 4. Duties and
Services of Custodian. 
 (i) Custodian agrees that it is acting as a “securities intermediary,” as defined in
Section 8-102 of the UCC with respect to the Securities Account, and as a “bank” as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC with respect to the Deposit Account. The parties hereto further agree that the securities intermediary’s
jurisdiction, within the meaning of Section 8-110(e) of the UCC, and the bank’s jurisdiction, within the meaning of Section 9-304(b) of the UCC, is the State of New York and agree that none of them has or will enter into any agreement
to the contrary except that the parties acknowledge that the Custodian Agreement is otherwise governed by Massachusetts law. 
 (ii) The
Custodian shall have no duties, obligations, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to the Collateral or the Collateral Account except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Custodian Agreement, and no implied
duties of any kind shall be read into this Agreement against the Custodian including, without limitation, the duty to preserve, exercise or enforce rights in the Collateral and Collateral Account. The Custodian shall not be liable or responsible for
anything done or omitted to be done by it in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and may rely and shall be protected in acting upon any notice, instruction or other communication which it reasonably believes to be genuine and
authorized. 
 (iii) As between the Borrower and the Custodian, except for the rights of control and possession in favor of the Agent agreed
to herein, nothing herein shall be deemed to modify, limit, restrict, amend or supercede the terms of the Custodian Agreement, and the Custodian shall be and remain entitled to all of the rights, indemnities, powers, and protections in its favor
under the Custodian Agreement, which shall apply fully to the Custodian’s actions and omissions hereunder. If a provision of this Agreement in favor of the Agent conflicts with a provision of the Custodian Agreement, this Agreement shall
control. Instructions under this Agreement from a Borrower’s authorized representative given in accordance with the terms of the Custodian Agreement shall also constitute Proper Instructions (as defined in the Custodian Agreement) under the
Custodian Agreement. 

  
 -3- 

 (iv) The Agent agrees to provide to Custodian, in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto,
the names and signatures of authorized parties who may give written notices, instructions or entitlement orders concerning the Collateral or the Collateral Account. Other means of notice or instruction may be used, provided that the Agent and
Custodian agree to appropriate security procedures. As between the Custodian and Agent, the Agent shall indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless with regard to any losses or liabilities of the Custodian (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
imposed on or incurred by the Custodian arising out of any action or omission of the Custodian in accordance with any notice or any entitlement order or other instruction of Agent under this Agreement. 

(v) The parties hereto acknowledge that no “security entitlement” under the UCC shall exist with respect to (A) cash (which
shall be credited to the Deposit Account), (B) any Loan Document (as defined below), or the Borrower’s interest in a direct or participation or subparticipation interest in or by assignment or novation of a loan or other extension of
credit evidenced, governed or represented by the Loan Document, or (C) any other asset which is registered in the name of the Borrower, payable to the order of the Borrower or specially indorsed to the Borrower or any third party (each such
other asset an “Identified Security”), except to the extent such Identified Security has been specially indorsed by the Borrower to the Custodian or in blank. 

(vi) For avoidance of doubt, the Agent hereby acknowledges that any Collateral issued outside the United States (“Foreign Security
System Assets”) which may be held by the Custodian, a sub-custodian within the Custodian’s network of sub-custodians (each a “Sub-Custodian”) or a depository or book-entry system for the central handling of securities
and other financial assets in which the Custodian or the Sub-Custodian are participants may not permit the Borrower to have a security entitlement under the UCC with respect to such Foreign Security System Assets (and such property shall be deemed
for purposes of this Agreement not to be a financial asset held within the Collateral Account). The parties hereby further acknowledge that the Custodian gives no assurance that a security entitlement is created under the UCC with respect to
Borrower’s assets held in Euroclear or Clearstream or their successors. Solely as between the Borrower and Agent, the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the foregoing shall not be deemed a waiver by the Agent of any of the obligations of the
Obligors to Deliver such Collateral or any other obligations of the Obligors under the Loan Documents or the Debt Documents (as such terms are defined in the Security Agreement). 

5. Bailment of Loan Documents and Identified Securities; Loan Document Inspection Rights. 

(i) If the Borrower delivers or causes a third party to deliver to the Custodian an instrument, document, certificate or other agreement
evidencing, governing or representing the Borrower’s ownership in or the Borrower’s interest in a direct or participation or subparticipation interest in or by assignment or novation of a loan or other extension of credit that is not a
“security” as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC (a “Loan Document”) or an Identified Security, the Custodian agrees to hold the Loan Document or Identified Security as bailee for the Agent (and not, for the
avoidance of doubt, as “securities intermediary”). 
 (ii) Until the Custodian receives a Notice of Exclusive Control or if all
previous Notices of Exclusive Control have been revoked in writing by the Agent, the Custodian shall comply with the instructions of the Borrower in respect of any Loan Document or Identified Security. The Custodian agrees that following its receipt
from the Agent of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time to act thereon, the Custodian shall thereafter follow only the instruction of the Agent with respect to all Loan Documents and Identified Securities, without

  
 -4- 

 
the further consent of the Borrower and shall be entitled to deal with the Agent as though the Agent were the sole and absolute owner of such Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, from and
after delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time to act thereon, the Borrower (whether directly or through its investment manager) shall have no right or ability to give any instructions concerning such
Collateral until such time as the Agent shall have notified the Custodian in writing of the withdrawal of the Notice of Exclusive Control and instructed the Custodian to resume honoring instructions which the Borrower is entitled to give under the
Custodian Agreement. 
 (iii) Upon the Agent’s reasonable request (which shall include reasonable advance written notice), copies of the
Loan Documents and Identified Securities shall be subject to the Agent’s inspection. The Custodian reserves the right to impose reasonable restrictions on the number, frequency, timing and scope of any such inspection so as to prevent or
minimize any potential impairment or disruption of its operations, distraction of its personnel or breaches of security or confidentiality. In addition, the Custodian shall be entitled to impose a commercially reasonable per person hourly charge for
the cooperation and assistance of its personnel reasonably requested by the Agent in connection with any such inspection (the “Custodian Inspection Expenses”). Nothing contained in this section shall obligate the Custodian to
provide access to or otherwise disclose any documents or information that the Custodian is obligated to maintain in confidence as a matter of law or regulation (and, to the extent that any such obligation is waivable by the Borrower, the Borrower
hereby waives such obligation to the extent necessary to permit the Agent to have reasonable access to such documents or information). 

(iv) The Custodian shall have no responsibilities or duties whatsoever with respect to a Loan Document or Identified Security, except for such
responsibilities as are expressly set forth herein or the Custodian Agreement. The Custodian shall be entitled to all exculpations, indemnities and other benefits under this Agreement when acting as bailee for the Agent. 

(v) For the avoidance of doubt, as between the Borrower and the Agent, the Borrower agrees that the fees and expenses of representatives
retained by the Agent in connection with any inspection requested by the Agent pursuant to Section 5(iii) (each, an “Agent Inspection”) will be covered by Section 5.06 of the Loan Agreement subject to the
limitations set forth in such Section 5.06. 
 (vi) The Borrower agrees to bear the cost of the Custodian Inspection Expenses for
(a) the first two Agent Inspections requested in each calendar year and (b) any Agent Inspection conducted while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Agent agrees to bear the cost of any Custodian Inspection Expenses
that are not required to be borne by the Borrower in accordance with the preceding sentence. 
 6. Force Majeure; Special Damages. The Custodian
shall not be liable for delays, errors or losses occurring by reason of circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, acts of God, market disorder, terrorism, insurrection, war, riots, failure of transportation or equipment, or
failure of vendors, communication or power supply. In no event shall the Custodian be liable to any person or entity for consequential or special damages, even if the Custodian has been advised of the possibility or likelihood of such damages. 

7. Compliance with Legal Process and Judicial Orders. The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower or to the Agent or to any
other person or entity for acting in accordance with any judicial or arbitral process, order, writ, judgment, decree or claim of lien relating to the Collateral or Collateral Account subject to this Agreement notwithstanding that such order or
process is subsequently modified, vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect. 

  
 -5- 

 8. Custodian Representations. 

8.1 The Custodian agrees and confirms, as of the date hereof, and at all times until the termination of this Agreement that it has not entered
into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement (other than the Custodian Agreement) with any other person or entity relating to the Collateral or the Collateral Account under which it has agreed to comply with
entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) or other instructions of such other person or entity. 
 8.2 The Collateral
Account will be maintained in the manner set forth in the Custodian Agreement subject to the provisions hereof until termination of this Agreement, and the Custodian will not change the name or account number of the Collateral Account without prior
notice to the Agent. 
 8.3 The Custodian has no knowledge of any claim to or interest in the Collateral Account, other than the interests
therein of the Custodian, the Agent and the Borrower. If the Custodian is notified by any person or entity that such person or entity asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment,
execution or similar process) against the Collateral Account, the Custodian will notify the Agent and the Borrower promptly thereof. 
 9. Access To
Reports. Upon any pledge, release or substitution of Collateral in the Collateral Account, and upon any release of other Collateral otherwise in the possession of the Custodian, Custodian shall notify Agent within one business day of such
change. The Custodian will provide to the Agent a copy of a statement of the Collateral Account and other Collateral in the possession of the Custodian within twenty (20) business days of the end of the calendar month (or more frequently as the
Agent may reasonably request); provided, however, that the Custodian’s failure to forward a copy of such statement to the Agent shall not give rise to any liability hereunder. Upon the Agent’s request, the Borrower hereby
authorizes the Custodian to, and based on such authorization the Custodian hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to, provide to the Agent such other information concerning the Collateral Account and/or the Collateral as the Agent may
reasonably request, provided that nothing contained herein shall obligate the Custodian to provide the Agent such information if it is not obligated to provide such information to the Borrower under the Custodian Agreement, and provided, further,
that the Custodian’s failure to forward such information to the Agent shall not give rise to any liability hereunder 
 10. Fees and Expenses, Etc.
of Custodian. 
 10.1 Reimbursement For Costs; Indemnity. In addition to the terms of the Custodian Agreement, the Borrower
hereby agrees (a) to pay and reimburse the Custodian for any advances, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) and disbursements that may be paid or incurred by the Custodian in connection with
this Agreement or the arrangement contemplated hereby, including any that may be incurred in performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (b) to indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against
any other loss, cost or expense sustained or incurred by the Custodian in connection with this Agreement or the arrangement contemplated hereby, including any that may be incurred in performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement. 
 10.2 Liens. Any fees, expenses or other amounts that may be owing to the Custodian from time to time pursuant to
the terms hereof or of the Custodian Agreement shall be secured by any lien, encumbrance and other rights that the Custodian may have under the Custodian Agreement or applicable law; and (subject to Section 10.4) the Custodian shall be entitled
to exercise such rights and interests against the Collateral and Collateral Account in accordance with the terms of the Custodian Agreement. 

  
 -6- 

 10.3 Advances. It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed by the parties that the
Custodian (including its affiliates, subsidiaries and agents) shall not be obligated to advance cash or investments to, for or on behalf of the Borrower in the Collateral Account; provided, however, that if the Custodian does advance
cash or investments to the Collateral Account for any purpose (including but not limited to securities settlements, foreign exchange contracts, assumed settlement or account overdraft) for the benefit of the Borrower, any property at any time held
pursuant to this Agreement and the Custodian Agreement shall be security therefor and, should the Borrower fail to repay the Custodian promptly, the Custodian shall (subject to Section 10.4) be entitled to utilize available cash and to dispose
of Collateral to the extent necessary to obtain reimbursement. 
 10.4 Subordination. The Custodian subordinates any security
interest or right of recoupment or setoff that it may have in or against the Collateral or the Collateral Account to the security interest in favor of the Agent. However, the subordination will not apply to the extent that the Custodian’s
security interest or right of recoupment or setoff secures or may reduce obligations of the Borrower to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Custodian for (i) the Custodian’s losses, fees, costs, or expenses incurred under Section 10.1 of
this Agreement or Section 14 or 15 of the Custodian Agreement as in effect on the date of this Agreement (other than any advances or investments except to the extent provided in clause (iv) of this Section 10.4), (ii) returned or
charged-back items, (iii) reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers, or (iv) payments owed to the Custodian for advances or investments made by the Custodian for the purposes of clearing and settling
purchases and sales of securities or other financial assets credited to the Securities Account, provided that the Custodian’s rights with respect to this clause (iv) arising from any security or financial asset shall be limited to such
security or financial asset. 
 11. Notices. Any notice, instruction or other instrument required to be given hereunder, or any requests and demands
to or upon the respective parties hereto shall be in writing and may be sent by hand, or by facsimile transmission, telex, or overnight delivery by any recognized delivery service, prepaid or, for termination of this Agreement only, by certified or
