 ARTICLE II 
 GUARANTEE 
 Section 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, to the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment and performance of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter owing to such Secured Parties. Each Guarantor
further agrees that the applicable Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any
Guaranteed Obligation. Each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest
for nonpayment. 
 Section 2.02. Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a
guarantee of payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held
for the payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of a Borrower or any other person. 
 Section 2.03. No Limitations, Etc. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided for in
Section 7.15, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be
subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise (other than defense of payment or performance). Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by 

  

 6 

 
applicable law, shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the enforcement hereof by
reason of: 
 (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any
claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; 
 (ii)
any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, increase in the Obligations with respect to, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under
this Agreement; 
 (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the exchange, substitution, release or any
impairment of, any security held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the Obligations; 
 (iv) any default,
failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; 
 (v) any other act or omission that may or
might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash or immediately available funds of all the Obligations),

 (vi) any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Obligation, 
 (vii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
other similar proceeding affecting any Loan Party or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Obligation, 
 (viii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that the Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party, or any other corporation or person, whether in
connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim, 
 (ix) any action permitted or authorized hereunder, or 
 (x) any other circumstance (including without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any
representation by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety.

 Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, to exchange, waive
or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order 

  

 7 

 
and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the
Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each
Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Loan Party,
other than the payment in full in cash or immediately available funds of all the Obligations (other than contingent or unliquidated obligations or liabilities). The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any
security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Loan
Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations (other than contingent or
unliquidated obligations or liabilities) have been paid in full in cash or immediately available funds. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election
operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. 
 Section 2.04. Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or
otherwise. 
 Section 2.05. Agreement To Pay; Contribution; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of
any other right that the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity,
by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the Secured Parties, in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligation.
Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Secured Party under this guarantee, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts
to each other Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor
against the Borrower, or other Loan Party or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article VI. 
 Section 2.06. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition and
assets of the Borrower and each other 

  

 8 

 
Loan Party, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such
Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such
circumstances or risks. 
 Section 2.07. Maximum Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this guarantee, the
Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this guarantee and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent
applicable to thus guarantee and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Subsidiary Party under this
guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 
 Section 2.08. Payment Free and Clear of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the same terms and to the same extent that payments by any Loan Party are required to be made pursuant to the terms of
Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each Guarantor mutatis mutandis. 
 Section 2.09. No Foreign Guarantee of U.S. Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Foreign Subsidiary shall, or shall be deemed to, provide a guarantee of any Obligations
of the Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiary pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 ARTICLE III

Pledge. As security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in full of its Obligations, each Pledgor hereby assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns for the benefit of the Secured

 Section 3.02. Delivery of the Pledged Collateral. (a) Each Pledgor agrees promptly to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Collateral
Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, any and all Pledged Securities to the extent such Pledged Securities, in the case of promissory notes or other instruments evidencing Indebtedness, are required to be delivered pursuant to paragraph
(b) of this Section 3.02. If any Pledged Stock that is uncertificated on the date hereof shall hereafter become certificated, the applicable Pledgor shall promptly cause the certificate or certificates representing Pledged Stock to be
delivered to the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, together with the accompanying stock powers or other documentation required by Section 3.02(c). None of the Pledgors shall permit any other party to “control” (for
purposes of Section 8-106 of the New York UCC (or any analogous provision of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the jurisdiction whose law applies)) any uncertificated securities that constitute Pledged Collateral other than the
Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties. 
 (b) To the extent any Indebtedness for borrowed money constitutes Pledged Collateral
(other than (i) intercompany current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business in connection with the cash management operations among Holdings, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or (ii) to the extent that a pledge of such
promissory note or instrument would violate applicable law) and such Indebtedness for borrowed money is evidenced by a duly 

  

 10 

 
executed promissory note, such Pledgor shall cause such promissory note to be pledged and delivered to the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured
Parties, pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that, such pledge in the case of any intercompany note evidencing debt owed by a Foreign Subsidiary to a Loan Party, shall be limited to 65% of the amount outstanding thereunder. To the extent any such
promissory note is a demand note, each Pledgor party thereto agrees, if requested by the Collateral Agent, to immediately demand payment thereunder upon an Event of Default specified under Section 7.01(b), (c), (f), (h) or (i) of the
Credit Agreement unless such demand would not be commercially reasonable or would otherwise expose Pledgor to liability to the maker. 
 (c)
Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent, (i) any Pledged Securities required to be delivered pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 3.02 shall be accompanied by stock powers or note powers, as applicable,
duly executed in blank or other instruments of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and by such other instruments and documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and (ii) all other property composing part of the
Pledged Collateral delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be accompanied to the extent necessary to perfect the security interest in or allow realization on the Pledged Collateral by proper instruments of assignment duly executed by
the applicable Pledgor and such other instruments or documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Each delivery of Pledged Securities shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities, which schedule shall be attached hereto
as Schedule II (or a supplement to Schedule II, as applicable) and made a part hereof; provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities. Each
schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. 
 Section 3.03. Representations, Warranties and
Covenants. The Pledgors, jointly and severally, represent, warrant and covenant to and with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties: 
 (a) Schedule II correctly sets forth the percentage of the issued and outstanding shares of each class of the Equity Interests of
the issuer thereof represented by the Pledged Stock and includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes or instruments evidencing Indebtedness required to be (i) pledged in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee
Requirement, or (ii) delivered pursuant to Section 3.02(b); 
 (b) the Pledged Stock and Pledged Debt Securities
(solely with respect to Pledged Debt Securities issued by a person that is not a Subsidiary of Holdings or an Affiliate of any such subsidiary, to the best of each Pledgor’s knowledge) have been duly and validly authorized and issued by the
issuers thereof and (i) in the case of Pledged Stock, are fully paid and nonassessable and (ii) in the case of Pledged Debt Securities (solely with respect to Pledged Debt Securities issued by a person that is not a Subsidiary of Holdings
or an Affiliate of any such subsidiary, to the best of each Pledgor’s knowledge) are legal, valid and binding obligations of the issuers thereof, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization,
moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general 

  

 11 

 
equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; 
 (c) except for the security interests granted hereunder, each Pledgor (i) is and, subject to any transfers made in compliance with
the Credit Agreement, will continue to be the direct owner, beneficially and of record, of the Pledged Securities indicated on Schedule II as owned by such Pledgor, (ii) holds the same free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted
Liens, (iii) will make no assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer of, or create or permit to exist any security interest in or other Lien on, the Pledged Collateral, other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement
and other than Permitted Liens and (iv) subject to the rights of such Pledgor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Pledged Collateral, will use commercially reasonable efforts to defend its title or interest hereto or therein against any and
all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), however arising, of all persons; 
 (d) other than as set forth in the Credit
Agreement or the schedules thereto, and except for restrictions and limitations imposed by the Loan Documents or securities laws generally or otherwise permitted to exist pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Pledged Stock (other than
partnership interests) is and will continue to be freely transferable and assignable, and none of the Pledged Stock is or will be subject to any option, right of first refusal, shareholders agreement, charter or by-law provisions or contractual
restriction of any nature that might prohibit, impair, delay or otherwise affect the pledge of such Pledged Stock hereunder, the sale or disposition thereof pursuant hereto or the exercise by the Collateral Agent of rights and remedies hereunder;

 (e) each Pledgor has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder in the manner hereby
done or contemplated; 
 (f) other than as set forth in the Credit Agreement or the schedules thereto, no consent or approval
of any Governmental Authority, any securities exchange or any other person was or is necessary to the validity of the pledge effected hereby (other than such as have been obtained and are in full force and effect); 
 (g) by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Pledgors of this Agreement, when any Pledged Securities are delivered to the Collateral
Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in accordance with this Agreement and a financing statement covering such Pledged Securities is filed in the appropriate filing office, the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted
assigns for the benefit of the Secured Parties will obtain a legal, valid and perfected lien upon and security interest in such Pledged Securities under the New York UCC, subject only to Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement or arising by
operation of law, as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations; 
 (h) each Pledgor that is an issuer of the
Pledged Collateral confirms that it has received notice of the security interest granted hereunder and consents to such security 

  

 12 

 interest and agrees to transfer record ownership of the securities issued by it in connection with any
request by the Administrative Agent; 
 Section 3.04. Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations. The Collateral Agent, as agent
for the Secured Parties, shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold the Pledged Securities in the name of the applicable Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent or, if an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, in its own name as pledgee or the name of its nominee (as pledgee or as sub-agent). Each Pledgor will promptly give to the Collateral Agent copies of any notices or other communications received by it with
respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Pledgor. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, shall have the right to exchange the certificates
representing Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Agreement. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Loan Party that is not a party to this
Agreement to comply with a request by the Collateral Agent, pursuant to this Section 3.04, to exchange certificates representing Pledged Securities of such Loan Party for certificates of smaller or larger denominations. 
 Section 3.05. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest, Etc. (a) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and
the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Pledgors of the Collateral Agent’s intention to exercise its rights hereunder: 
 (i) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of
this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that, except as permitted under the Credit Agreement, such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any manner that could materially and adversely affect the
rights inuring to a holder of any Pledged Collateral, the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or the other Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Swap Agreements or any other Loan Document
or the ability of the Secured Parties to exercise the same. 
 (ii) The Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to
each Pledgor, or cause to be executed and delivered to such Pledgor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling such Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual
rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (i) above. 
 (iii) Each Pledgor shall be entitled
to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal and other
distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable laws; provided, that (A) any noncash dividends, interest,
principal or other distributions, payments or other consideration in respect thereof, including any rights to 

  

 13 

 
receive the same to the extent not so distributed or paid, that would constitute Pledged Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or
reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities, received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other
exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise or (B) any non-cash dividends and other distributions paid or payable in respect of any Pledged Securities that would constitute Pledged Securities, in connection with a
partial or total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid in surplus, shall be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Pledgor, shall not be commingled by such
Pledgor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the
Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower of the Collateral
Agent’s intention to exercise its rights hereunder, all rights of any Pledgor to receive dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Pledgor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.05
shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral Agent which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest,
principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 3.05 shall not be commingled by such Pledgor with any of its other funds or property
but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Collateral Agent). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of
this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Collateral Agent in an account to be established by the Collateral Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02
hereof. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered to the Collateral Agent a certificate to that effect, the Collateral Agent shall promptly repay to each Pledgor (without interest) all dividends, interest,
principal or other distributions that such Pledgor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.05 and that remain in such account. 
 (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower of the Collateral
Agent’s intention to exercise its rights hereunder, all rights of any Pledgor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.05, and the obligations of
the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 3.05, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, which shall have the sole and exclusive
right and authority to exercise 

  

 14 

 
such voting and consensual rights and powers, provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Pledgors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the Borrower has delivered
to the Collateral Agent a certificate to that effect, (i) each Pledgor shall have the right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that such Pledgor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph
(a)(i) above and (ii) the obligations of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(i) above shall be reinstated.

hereby assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all right, title and interest in or to any and all
of the following assets and properties now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Pledgor or in which such Pledgor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Article 9

(b) any assets (including Equity Interests), whether now owned or hereafter acquired, with respect to which the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement or the other paragraphs of Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement would not be required to

a party or any of its right, title or interest thereunder to the extent, but only to the extent, that such a grant would, under the terms of such license, contract or agreement, result in a breach of the terms of, or constitute a default under, or
result in the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of, any license, contract or agreement to which such Pledgor is a party (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Section 9-406, 9-407,
9-408 or 9-409 of the New York UCC or any other applicable law (including, without limitation, Title 11 of the United States Code) or principles of equity); provided, that immediately upon the ineffectiveness, lapse or termination of any such
provision, the Collateral shall include, and such Pledgor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, all such rights and interests as if such provision had never been in effect, or (f) any Equipment owned by any Pledgor that is
subject to a purchase money lien or a Capital Lease Obligation if the contract or other agreement in which such Lien is granted (or the documentation providing for such Capital Lease Obligation) prohibits or requires the consent of any person other
than the Pledgors as a condition to the creation of any other security interest on such Equipment. 
 (b) Each Pledgor hereby irrevocably
authorizes the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements (including fixture filings) with respect to the Article 9 Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto
that contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including (i) whether such Pledgor is an organization, the type of
organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Pledgor, (ii) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of the real property to which such Article 9 Collateral relates and
(iii) a description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Collateral Agent may reasonably determine is necessary or advisable to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Article 9 Collateral granted

 16 

 Agreement, including describing such property as “all assets” or “all property”. Each Pledgor agrees
to provide such information to the Collateral Agent promptly upon request. 
 The Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming,
continuing, enforcing or protecting the Security Interest granted by each Pledgor, without the signature of such Pledgor, and naming such Pledgor or the Pledgors as debtors and the Collateral Agent as secured party. 
 (c) The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or
modify, any obligation or liability of any Pledgor with respect to or arising out of the Article 9 Collateral. 
 Section 4.02.
Representations and Warranties. The Pledgors jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that: 
 (a) Each Pledgor has good and valid rights in and title to the Article 9 Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full power and authority to grant to the
Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other person other than
any consent or approval that has been obtained and is in full force and effect or has otherwise been disclosed herein or in the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) The Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein, including the exact legal name of each Pledgor, is correct and complete, in all material respects, as of the Closing Date.
The Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations containing a description of the Article 9 Collateral that have been prepared by the Collateral
Agent based upon the information provided to the Collateral Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 4 to the Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the
Borrower to the Collateral Agent after the Closing Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations required by Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement) constitute all the filings, recordings and registrations (other than filings required
to be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office in order to perfect the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral including all material United States Patents, United States registered Trademarks
and United States registered Copyrights) that are necessary to publish notice of and protect the validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns
for the benefit of the Secured Parties in respect of all Article 9 Collateral (other than Commercial Tort Claims) in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States (or any political subdivision
thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the
filing of continuation statements or 

  

 17 

 
amendments. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that a fully executed Intellectual Property Security Agreement containing a description of all Article 9
Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property with respect to United States Patents (and Patents for which United States registration applications are pending), United States registered Trademarks (and Trademarks for which United States
registration applications are pending) and United States registered Copyrights (and Copyrights for which United States registration applications are pending) has been delivered to the Collateral Agent for recording with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. § 1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder, as applicable, and reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, to protect the
validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of such material Intellectual Property in
which a security interest may be perfected by recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, and no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration
is necessary (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (or registration or application for registration thereof) acquired or
developed after the date hereof). 
 (c) The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9
Collateral (other than Article 9 Collateral described in Section 3.01(a)(xii)) securing the payment and performance of the Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in Section 4.02(b), a perfected security interest in all
Article 9 Collateral (other than Commercial Tort Claims) in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and
its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law in such jurisdictions and (iii) a security interest that shall be perfected in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be
perfected upon the receipt and recording of the Intellectual Property Security Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office upon the making of such filings with such office, in each case, as
applicable, with respect to material Intellectual Property Collateral (as defined below). The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral other than Permitted Liens. 
 (d) The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Pledgors free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens. None of the Pledgors has filed or consented
to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9 Collateral, (ii) any assignment in which any Pledgor assigns any Article 9 Collateral
or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or (iii) any assignment in which any Pledgor assigns any Article 9
Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar
instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Permitted Liens. 
  

 18 

 (e) None of the Pledgors holds any Commercial Tort Claim individually in excess of $5.0 million as of the
Closing Date except as indicated on the Perfection Certificate. 
 (f) As to itself and its Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual
Property (the “Intellectual Property Collateral”), to the best of each Pledgor’s knowledge: 
 (i) The
Intellectual Property Collateral set forth on Schedule III includes all issued, registered, or applied-for Patents, Trademarks, Copyrights and domain names owned by such Pledgor as of the date hereof and all material IP Agreements to which
the Pledgor is a party. 
 (ii) The Intellectual Property Collateral is subsisting and has not been adjudged invalid or
unenforceable in whole or part, and to the best of such Pledgor’s knowledge is valid and enforceable, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Pledgor is not aware of any uses of any item of
Intellectual Property Collateral that would be expected to lead to such item becoming invalid or unenforceable, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (iii) Such Pledgor has made or performed all commercially reasonable acts, including without limitation filings, recordings and payment of
all required fees and taxes, required to maintain and protect its interest in each and every item of Intellectual Property Collateral in full force and effect in the United States and such Pledgor has used proper statutory notice in connection with
its use of each Patent, Trademark and Copyright in the Intellectual Property Collateral, in each case, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (iv) With respect to each IP Agreement, the absence, termination or violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect: (A) such Pledgor has not received any notice of termination or cancellation under such IP Agreement; (B) such Pledgor has not received any notice of a breach or default under such IP Agreement, which breach or default has
not been cured or waived; and (C) neither such Pledgor nor any other party to such IP Agreement is in breach or default thereof in any material respect, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such
a breach or default or permit termination, modification or acceleration under such IP Agreement. 
 (v) Except as would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Pledgor or Intellectual Property Collateral is subject to any outstanding consent, settlement, decree, order, injunction, judgment or ruling restricting the use of any Intellectual
Property Collateral or that would impair the validity or enforceability of such Intellectual Property Collateral. 
 Section 4.03.
Covenants. (a) Each Pledgor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any change (i) in its corporate or organization name, (ii) in its identity or type of organization or corporate structure, (iii) in
its Federal Taxpayer Identification 

  

 19 

 
Number or organizational identification number or (iv) in its jurisdiction of organization. Each Pledgor agrees promptly to provide the Collateral Agent
with certified organizational documents reflecting any of the changes described in the immediately preceding sentence. Each Pledgor agrees not to effect or permit any change referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (a) unless all
filings have been made, or will have been made within any applicable statutory period, under the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid,
legal and perfected first priority security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral in which a Security Interest may be perfected by filing, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. Each Pledgor agrees promptly to notify the Collateral Agent
if any material portion of the Article 9 Collateral owned or held by such Pledgor is damaged or destroyed. 
 (b) Subject to the rights of
such Pledgor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Collateral, each Pledgor shall, at its own expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the
Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien that is not a Permitted Lien. 
 (c) Each Pledgor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Collateral Agent may from time to
time reasonably request to better assure, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including, without limitation, the payment of any fees and taxes required in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other documents in connection herewith or therewith, all in accordance with the terms hereof and of
Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement. If any Indebtedness payable under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument, such note or instrument shall be promptly
pledged to the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and delivered to the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties duly endorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, with prompt
notice thereof to the Pledgors, to supplement this Agreement by supplementing Schedule III or adding additional schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset or item that may constitute material Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks,
Copyright Licenses, Patent Licenses or Trademark Licenses; provided that any Pledgor shall have the right, exercisable within 30 days after the Borrower has been notified by the Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article
9 Collateral, to advise the Collateral Agent in writing of any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by such Pledgor hereunder with respect to such Article 9 Collateral. Each Pledgor agrees that it will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to take such action as shall be necessary in order that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and correct with respect to such Article 9 Collateral within 30 days after the date it has been notified by the
Collateral Agent of the specific identification of such Article 9 Collateral. 
  

 20 

 (d) After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Collateral Agent
shall have the right to verify under reasonable procedures the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating to, the Article 9 Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or Article 9 Collateral
in the possession of any third person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third person possessing such Article 9 Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to share any information it gains
from such inspection or verification with any Secured Party. 
 (e) At its option, the Collateral Agent may discharge past due taxes,
assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not a Permitted Lien, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent
any Pledgor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.03(e) shall be interpreted as excusing any Pledgor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or
any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Pledgor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan
Documents. 
 (f) Each Pledgor (rather than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) shall remain liable for the observance and performance
of all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral and each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral
Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance. 
 (g) None of the Pledgors shall make or permit
to be made an assignment, pledge or hypothecation of the Article 9 Collateral or shall grant any other Lien in respect of the Article 9 Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement. None of the Pledgors shall make or permit to
be made any transfer of the Article 9 Collateral owned by it or in which it has an interest, except as permitted by the Credit Agreement. 
 (h) Each Pledgor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Pledgor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the
purpose, during the continuance of an Event of Default, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Pledgor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of
payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that any Pledgor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance
required hereby or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Pledgors hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and
maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any 

  

 21 

 
other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this
Section 4.03(i), including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Pledgors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Obligations secured hereby.

 Section 4.04. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the
Collateral Agent to enforce, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Article 9 Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, in each case at such Pledgor’s own expense, to take the following
actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral: 
 (a) Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. If any Pledgor shall at any
time hold or acquire any Instruments (other than checks received and processed in the ordinary course of business) or Tangible Chattel Paper evidencing an amount in excess of $5.0 million, such Pledgor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the
same to the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 
 (b) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article III, if any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any
Certificated Security included in the Pledged Collateral, such Pledgor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly
executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably specify. If any security of a domestic issuer now owned or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor is uncertificated and is issued to such Pledgor or its nominee directly by the
issuer thereof, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent of such uncertificated securities and (i) upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request or (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such security, without further consent of
any Pledgor or such nominee, or (ii) cause the issuer to register the Collateral Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, as the registered owner of such security. 
 (c) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount reasonably estimated to exceed $5.0 million, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral
Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Pledgor, including a summary description of such claim, and grant to the Collateral Agent in writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all under the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 4.05. Covenants
Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will not knowingly do any act or omit to do any act (and will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to prevent its licensees from doing any act or
omitting to do any act) whereby any Patent that is material to the normal conduct of such Pledgor’s 

  

 22 

 
business may become prematurely invalidated, abandoned, lapsed or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall take commercially reasonable steps with
respect to any material products covered by any such Patent as necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its rights under applicable patent laws. 
 (b) Each Pledgor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees or its sublicensees to, for each material Trademark necessary to the normal conduct of such Pledgor’s business,
(i) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any adjudication of abandonment or invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) display such Trademark with notice
of federal or foreign registration or claim of trademark or service mark as required under applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly permit its licensees’ use of such Trademark in violation of any third-party rights.

 (c) Each Pledgor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees or its sublicensees to, for each work
covered by a material Copyright necessary to the normal conduct of such Pledgor’s business that it publishes, displays and distributes, use copyright notice as required under applicable copyright laws. 
 (d) Each Pledgor shall notify the Collateral Agent promptly if it knows that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of such
Pledgor’s business may imminently become abandoned, lapsed or dedicated to the public, or of any materially adverse determination or development, excluding office actions and similar determinations or developments in the United States Patent
and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, any court or any similar office of any country, regarding such Pledgor’s ownership of any such material Patent, Trademark or Copyright or its right to register or to maintain the same.

 (e) Each Pledgor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall (i) inform the Collateral Agent on an
annual basis of each application by itself, or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, for any Patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and each registration of any Trademark or Copyright with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any comparable office or agency in any other country filed during the preceding twelve-month period, in each case to the extent such application or registration relates to Intellectual Property
material to the normal course of such Pledgor’s business and (ii) upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
request to evidence the Collateral Agent’ security interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright. 
 (f) Each Pledgor shall exercise
its reasonable business judgment consistent with past practice in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any comparable office or agency in any other country with respect to
maintaining and pursuing each application relating to any Patent, Trademark and/or Copyright (and obtaining the relevant grant or registration) material to the normal conduct of such Pledgor’s business and maintain (i) each issued Patent
and (ii) the registrations of each Trademark and each Copyright, in each case that is material to the normal conduct of such 

  

 23 

 
Pledgor’s business, including, when applicable and necessary in such Pledgor’s reasonable business judgment, timely filings of applications for
renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees, and, if any Pledgor believes necessary in its reasonable business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings against third
parties. 
 (g) In the event that any Pledgor knows or has reason to know that any Article 9 Collateral consisting of a Patent,
Trademark or Copyright material to the normal conduct of its business has been or is about to be materially infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent and shall, if such Pledgor
deems it necessary in its reasonable business judgment, promptly sue and recover any and all damages, and take such other actions as are reasonably appropriate under the circumstances. 
 ARTICLE V 
 REMEDIES; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 
 Section 5.01. Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Pledgor agrees to deliver
on demand each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent, and it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement: (a) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by
the applicable Pledgors to the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or a nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral throughout the
world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers thereunder cannot be obtained with the use of commercially
reasonable efforts, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to use) and (b) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Article 9 Collateral and without liability for trespass to
the applicable Pledgor to enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under
the applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, to sell or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The
Collateral Agent shall be authorized in connection with any sale of a security (if it deems it advisable to do so) pursuant to the foregoing to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who represent and agree that they are
purchasing such security for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or 

  

 24 

 
sale thereof. Upon consummation of any such sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.01, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign,
transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives
and releases (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal that such Pledgor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. 
 The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Pledgors 10 Business Days’ written notice (which each Pledgor agrees is reasonable notice within the
meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such
sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such
board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral,
or the portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any
Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the
Collateral made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in the event
that any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon notice given in accordance with provisions above. At any public (or, to the
extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section 5.01, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase for cash, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any
Pledgor (all such rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such
property in accordance with Section 5.02 hereof without further accountability to any Pledgor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the
Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Pledgor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall
have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at
law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially 

  

 25 

 
reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions. 
 Section 5.02. Apportionment, Application, and Reversal of Payments. 
 (a) All payments received by the Administrative Agent or by the Collateral Agent for application to the Obligations shall be applied as
follows: 
 First, pari passu (i) to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the
Agents from the Borrower under the Credit Agreement (other than in respect of Bank Products), (ii) to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the counterparty to the MLI Swap Agreement or to the Overdraft Line and
(iii) to pay any scheduled and periodic payments then due but unpaid under the MLI Swap Agreement; 
 Second,
pari passu (i) to pay interest and fees then due from the Borrower to the Lenders under the Credit Agreement (other than in respect of Bank Products), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest
and fees then due to such parties and (ii) to pay interest and fees then due from any Loan Party to the counterparty to the Overdraft Line; 
 Third, pari passu (i) to pay principal then due from the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such
parties, (ii) to pay principal then due from any Loan Party to the counterparty to the Overdraft Line and (iii) to pay any termination amount then due under the MLI Swap Agreement; and 
 Fourth, pari passu (i) to pay any other amounts then due from the Borrower under the Credit Agreement (including in
respect of Bank Products), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts then due to such parties, (ii) to pay any other amounts then due from any Loan Party to the counterparty to the Overdraft Line and
(iii) to pay any other amounts then due from the Borrower under the MLI Swap Agreement. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall not apply any payment which it receives to any Eurocurrency
Revolving Loan except (A) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, or (B) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Revolving Loans, and (ii) the
Agents and the Revolving Facility Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all proceeds and payments received to any portion of the Revolving Facility Obligations. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in
accordance with this Agreement. 

  

 26 

 
Upon any sale of Collateral by the Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of
the purchase money by the Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application
of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
 (d) If, after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of any Obligations, an Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any person
because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible set-off, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by such Agent or such Lender and the Borrower shall be liable to pay to such
Agent and the Lenders, and shall indemnify each Agent and the Lenders and holds the Agents and the Lenders harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) shall be and remain effective
notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by an Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agents’ and the
Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) shall survive the termination of
this Agreement. 
 Section 5.03. Securities Act, Etc. In view of the position of the Pledgors in relation to the Pledged
Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar federal statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any
such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Pledgor understands that compliance with the Federal
Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which
any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral under
applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion,
(a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws or, to the extent applicable, Blue Sky or
other state securities laws and (b) may approach and negotiate with a single potential purchaser to effect such sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller
than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any 

  

 27 

 
such sale, no Collateral Agent shall incur any responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the
Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after
registration as aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The provisions of this Section 5.03 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed
substantially the price at which the Collateral Agent sells. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION 
 Section 6.01. Indemnity. In
addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.03 hereof), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor under this
Agreement in respect of any Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such 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 Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part an Obligation owed to any Secured Party by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold. 
 Section 6.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (other than Holdings and the Borrower) (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 6.03 hereof) that, in the event a payment shall be
made by any other Guarantor (other than Holdings and the Borrower) hereunder in respect of any Obligation or assets of any other Guarantor (other than Holdings and the Borrower) shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any
Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower, as provided in Section 6.01 hereof, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the
Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as applicable, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of such
Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.16 hereof, the date of the
supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under
Section 6.01 hereof to the extent of such payment. 
 Section 6.03. Subordination; Subrogation. (a) Each Guarantor
hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other obligations owed to such Guarantor by each 

  

 28 

 
other Loan Party (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this
Section 6.03: 
 (i) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Each Guarantor may receive payments from any other Loan Party on
account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, if required by the Required Lenders, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the
Subordinated Obligations until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. 
 (ii) Prior Payment of Guaranteed
Obligations. In any proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be
entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or similar law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post-Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. 
 (iii) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Guarantor shall, if the Collateral
Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Secured Parties and deliver such payments to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) on account of the
Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this
Agreement. 
 (iv) Collateral Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated Obligations and
to apply any amounts received thereon to the Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated Obligations and
(B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Collateral Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest). 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s Obligations under or in respect of the guarantee set forth in Article II hereof or any other
Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of 

  

 29 

 
subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from
the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the
Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II shall have been paid in full in cash, all Letters of Credit and all Swap Agreements secured hereunder shall have expired or been terminated or cash collateralized
(pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks) and the Commitments shall have expired, terminated or shall have been cash collateralized (pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks). If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Obligations and all other
amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II and (b) the latest date of expiration or termination or cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit and all Swap Agreements secured hereunder and termination or expiration of all
Commitments, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same
form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of
the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any Obligations or other amounts payable under such guarantee thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to any Secured Party of all or any part of the Obligations,
(ii) all of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the guarantee set forth in Article II shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) the later of (A) the Term Facility Date and (B) the Revolving Facility Maturity
Date shall have occurred and (iv) all Letters of Credit and all Swap Agreements secured hereunder shall have expired or been terminated, the Administrative Agent will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such
Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor
pursuant to such guarantee. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 7.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as
otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Party shall be given to it in care of the Borrower, with such notice
to be given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
  

 30 

 Section 7.02. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the
Security Interest in the Article 9 Collateral, the security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the
Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other
term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of
any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement (other than a defense of payment or performance). 
 Section 7.03. Limitation By Law. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law,
and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable,
in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law. 
 Section 7.04.
Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any party to this Agreement when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such party shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such party, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the
benefit of such party, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that no party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest
herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each party and may
be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any party without the approval of any other party and without affecting the obligations of any other party hereunder. 
 Section 7.05. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to
include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Pledgor or the Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their
respective permitted successors and assigns; provided that no Pledgor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative
Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent hereunder shall at all times be the same person that is the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement. Written notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent
pursuant the Credit Agreement shall also constitute notice of 

  

 31 

 
resignation by such entity as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
Collateral Agent pursuant hereto, except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 7.06. Administrative
Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall each be entitled to reimbursement of their expenses incurred hereunder as
provided in the Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan
Documents, each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other “Indemnitees” (as defined in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements (except the allocated cost of in-house counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, (i) the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto
and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of proceeds of the Loans or the use of any Letter of Credit or (iii) any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, or to the Collateral, whether or not 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 are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or (ii) any material breach of any Loan Document by such Indemnitee. 
 (c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder
shall be additional Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.06 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall be payable on written demand therefor, accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or
other amount requested. 
 Section 7.07. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorneys-in-Fact. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the
Collateral Agent an attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. The Collateral 

  

 32 

 
Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral
Agent’s name or in the name of such Pledgor, (a) to receive, endorse, assign or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to
demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to ask for, demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due or to become due under and
by virtue of any Collateral; (d) to sign the name of any Pledgor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (e) to send verifications of Accounts to any Account Debtor; (f) to commence and prosecute any and
all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (g) to settle, compromise,
compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (h) to notify, or to require any Pledgor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Collateral Agent or to the Administrative
Agent; and (i) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully
and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to
make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due
in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 Section 7.08. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. 
 Section 7.09. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps
to enforce such a right, power or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank and the
Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party
therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 7.09, and then such 

  

 33 

 
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such
Default or Event of Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Collateral Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with the terms of Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement.

 Section 7.10. 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 RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 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 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 7.10. 
 Section 7.11.
Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect
of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 Section 7.12. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.04 hereof.
Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. 
 Section 7.13. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
  

 34 

 Section 7.14. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each party to this
Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court
from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, 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 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 the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Pledgor, or its properties, in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (b) Each party to this Agreement 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 or any other Loan Document in any New York State or federal court. 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. 
 Section 7.15. Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement, the guarantees made herein, the pledges made herein, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate
when all the Loan Document Obligations (other than contingent or unliquidated obligations or liabilities with respect to which no claim has been asserted) have been paid in full in cash or immediately available funds and the Lenders have no further
commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement, the Revolving L/C Exposure has been reduced to zero (or cash-collateralized or supported by back-to-back letter of credit in form and substance and from an issuing bank satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks under the Credit Agreement) and each Issuing Bank has no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) A Subsidiary Party shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the security interests in the Collateral of such Subsidiary
Party shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Party ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower or otherwise ceases to be a Guarantor;
provided that the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction (to the extent such consents are required by the Credit Agreement) and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise. 
 (c) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Pledgor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement to any person that is not a Pledgor, or
upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be
automatically released. 
  

 35 

 (d) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this
Section 7.15, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Pledgor, at such Pledgor’s expense, all documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release; provided, that the Collateral
Agent shall not be required to take any action under this Section 7.15(d) unless such Pledgor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent together with such request, which may be incorporated into such request, (i) a reasonably detailed
description of the Collateral, which in any event shall be sufficient to effect the appropriate termination or release without affecting any other Collateral, and (ii) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower or such Pledgor
certifying that the transaction giving rise to such termination or release is permitted by the Credit Agreement and was consummated in compliance with the Loan Documents. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.15
shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 7.16. Additional Subsidiaries. Upon execution and
delivery by the Collateral Agent and any Subsidiary that is required to become a party hereto by Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement of an instrument in the form of Exhibit A hereto, such subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Party
hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Party herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other party to this Agreement. The rights and obligations of each
party to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new party to this Agreement. 
 Section 7.17. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of any party to this
Agreement against any of and all the obligations of such party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement owed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under
this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 7.17 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such Issuing Bank may have.

 Collateral Agreement 
 SUPPLEMENT NO.              dated as of
[                    ], 2007 (this “Supplement”), to the GUARANTEE AND COLLATERAL AGREEMENT, dated and effective as of May 18,

 A. Reference is made to that certain Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among Holdings, the Borrower, the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”), and Merrill

 B. Capitalized terms used herein and not

Subsidiary Parties under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance
with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Subsidiary Party under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and each Issuing Bank to issue additional Letters of Credit and as
consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued. 
 Accordingly, the Collateral Agent and the New Subsidiary
agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.16 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its

hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement applicable to it as a Subsidiary Party, a Guarantor and a Pledgor thereunder, and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and

create and grant to the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns for the benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in and Lien on
all the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Subsidiary Party” or a “Guarantor” a
“Pledgor” in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (and, if applicable, a “Borrower” or a “Subsidiary Borrower”) shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is hereby
incorporated herein by reference. 
 SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity
or at law) and (iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. 
 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract. This Supplement shall become effective when (a) the Collateral Agent shall have received a counterpart of this
Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary, and (b) the Collateral Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. 
 SECTION 4.
The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants that (a) set forth on Schedule I attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of (i) any and all Pledged Stock and Pledged Debt Securities now owned by the New Subsidiary and

(b) set forth on Schedule II attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of all the Pledged Securities of the New Subsidiary, and (c) set forth under its signature hereto, is the true and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary,
its jurisdiction of formation and the location of its chief executive office. 
 SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF
THE PARTIES UNDER THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION 7.
In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes
as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

 SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in
Section 7.01 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. 
 SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for
its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for the Collateral Agent.

 OTHER PROPERTYManagement Incentive Compensation Plan Term Sheet

 Exhibit 10.3 
 NORANDA ALUMINUM HOLDING CORPORATION 
 Management Incentive Compensation Plan Term Sheet

 Set forth below are the key management compensation terms by which the undersigned parties agree to abide by upon the consummation of the
acquisition (the “Transaction”) of Noranda Aluminum Holding Corporation (including its subsidiaries, the “Company”) by an affiliate of Apollo Management VI, LP (“Apollo”). 
  

			
	Name:	  	William Brooks (“you” or the “Executive”)
		
	Position:	  	Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The Executive will also be Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company subject to the provisions described below.
		
	Initial Term:	  	Three years.
		
	Severance:	  	In the event that your employment as CEO is terminated by the Company during the contract period Without Cause or you resign your employment for Good Reason (such circumstances, an
“Involuntary Termination”), it is Apollo’s intention to name you as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors for a term beginning on the date of termination or resignation and ending three years from the closing of the
acquisition. If, in the event of an Involuntary Termination as CEO, Apollo reasonably determines at such time that it is in the best interests of the Company not to offer you the position of Chairman, or otherwise cannot maintain a regular seat on
the Board of Directors for you at such time, you shall nevertheless be entitled to the compensation described below.
		
	Compensation:	  	CEO. As CEO, you shall continue to receive your current base salary of $436,800. You shall also be eligible for a performance based bonus with a target of 50% of Base Salary. The
Bonus Plan adopted by the Board will contemplate discretionary bonuses in addition to bonuses based on performance.
		
		  	In the event of an Involuntary Termination as CEO during any calendar year, you shall continue to receive your full salary and, if applicable, target bonus, paid as though you had continued to
work as CEO for such full calendar year. Thereafter, you shall you shall receive compensation of $300,000 per year until the 

			
		
		  	third anniversary of the closing, provided that, if you are offered a position on the Board, you agree to serve.
		
		  	Under all circumstances, during the three year period following closing (other than a termination for Cause), you will also continue to be entitled to the same level of benefits you received as
CEO.
		
		  	You will not be entitled to any severance in the event that your employment with the Company is terminated for Cause. However, in the event of your Disability or Death the Company will continue
to pay your base salary (as CEO or as a director, as applicable).
		
		  	As of the closing of the Transaction, any other employment, severance, change of control or related agreements between the Company and the Executive will be terminated and superseded by
definitive documentation consistent with this term sheet.
		
		  	Cause is generally defined to include your commission of a crime or an act of moral turpitude, a willful commission of an act of dishonesty or a material breach of your obligations as President
and Chief Executive Officer.
		
		  	Resignation for Good Reason generally means a material reduction in your responsibilities or compensation (not including any diminution related to a broader compensation reduction that is not
limited to you specifically).
		
	Continued Board Service:	  	In the event that you continue to serve on the Board following the third anniversary of the closing, you and Apollo will agree on a mutually acceptable level of compensation based in part on the
amount of time you devote to your duties as a director.
		
	Management Investment:	  	Management, including the Executive, would invest as part of the Transaction at a valuation equal to Apollo’s investment valuation. Management will purchase securities which are
economically equivalent to the securities acquired by Apollo.
		
		  	Apollo will work with management to allow management to satisfy their investment in a tax efficient manner. The structure of the management investment will be determined prior to
closing.

  

 2 

			
		
	Structure:	  	To the extent the Transaction is consummated through a holding company structure, each investor in the holding company will hold, in the same proportion, a strip of common stock and preferred
stock (or other applicable securities).
		
	Investment Amount:	  	$450,000
		
	Option Plan:	  	Concurrent with the consummation of the Transaction, an option plan will be created and options to acquire shares of common stock will be issued to management. Management will be permitted to
make investments and receive options pursuant to individual letter agreements between management employees and the Company. These options will be exercisable for shares at an exercise price equivalent to the price paid by Apollo and management for
shares of common stock acquired by them in connection with the Transaction.
		
		  	Based upon the Investment Amount indicated above, the Executive would be awarded the options described below under “Options.”
		
	Shareholder Agreement:	  	Management will be party to a shareholders agreement or an investor rights agreement and option agreement providing for, among other things
		
		  	 ·        tag along rights (subject to customary underwriter cutbacks
in an IPO) that will permit you to sell securities, on a pro rata basis, in any transaction following which Apollo disposes of at least 10% of its position;

		
		  	 ·        drag-along rights which will require you to sell securities,
on a pro rata basis, in any transaction following which Apollo disposes of at least 10% of its position;

		
		  	 ·        piggy back registration rights entitling you to register your
shares of Common Stock (or other applicable securities) in the event that the Company files a Form S-4 or S-8 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission;

		
		  	 ·        permitted transfers for estate-planning purposes;
and

		
		  	 ·        customary non-compete/non-solicitation
provisions.

  

 3 

			
		
	Options:	  	In connection with your direct investment in the Company, you will be granted options to acquire 68,100 shares of common stock, with a strike price per share equal to $10.00 (Apollo’s
purchase price for equity).
		
		  	The options will vest in two categories:
		
		  	 (i)     One half will vest annually over 3 years in equal tranches (“Tranche A Options”);
and

		
		  	 (ii)    One half will vest on the 8th anniversary of the grant date provided that vesting shall be
accelerated at such time as Apollo realizes at least a 25% rate of return based on cash proceeds received by Apollo.

		
		  	In the event of a sale of the Company, all unvested Tranche A Options shall vest on the eighteen month anniversary of the consummation of such sale; provided that, if at any time
during the eighteen month period following such sale, your employment ceases for any reason other than (i) a termination for Cause, your Tranche A Options shall immediately vest.
		
	Right to Repurchase:	  	In the event that the Company terminates your employment for Cause or you resign your employment without Good Reason, the Company shall have the right to repurchase all of your Common Stock
at the lesser of (i) your original purchase price or (ii) Fair Market Value. If your employment is terminated or you resign for any other reason than the reasons set forth in the prior sentence, the Company may elect to purchase your Common Stock in
the Company at Fair Market Value.

  

 4 

 By signing below, the parties agree that this term sheet will be binding upon the parties and constitutes a binding
commitment on the part of the undersigned executive to invest the Investment Amount, subject to the conditions indicated above, the closing of the Transaction on terms proposed by Apollo in the definitive Transaction documentation, and final
documentation among the parties, which will be negotiated in good faith. Until the later of 6 months from the date hereof and the termination of the definitive Transaction documentation, the Executive agrees to work exclusively with Apollo toward
consummation of a transaction involving the acquisition by a third party of all or a material portion of the Company’s equity.
