 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 
 12 1/2% SENIOR SECURED NOTE DUE 2012 
 1. Interest. Baseline Oil & Gas
Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. Interest on the Note will accrue from the most recent date on which interest has been paid or, if
no interest has been paid, from and including the Issue Date. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing April 1, 2008. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of
twelve 30-day months. The Company will pay interest on overdue principal at 1% per annum in excess of the above rate and will pay interest on overdue installments of interest at such higher rate to the extent lawful. Additional Interest may
accrue on this Note in certain circumstances pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and all references to “interest” in this Note shall include any Additional Interest due on this Note pursuant to the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement. 
 2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who
are the registered Holders at the close of business on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are cancelled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such Record Date, and on or before
such Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public
and private debts (“U.S. Legal Tender”). However, the Company may pay principal and interest by check payable in such U.S. Legal Tender. The Company may deliver any such interest payment to the Paying Agent or to a Holder at the
Holder’s registered address. 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, The Bank of New York (the “Trustee”) will act
as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to the Holders. 
 4.
Indenture. The Notes and the Guarantees were issued under an Indenture, dated as of October 1, 2007 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the
Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) (the
“TIA”), as in effect on the date of the Indenture until such time as the Indenture is qualified under the TIA, and thereafter as in effect on the date on which the Indenture is qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. The Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, agrees
to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture, as the same may be amended from time to time. 

 5. Redemption. 
 (a) Optional Redemption. 
 (1) Optional Redemption Prior to October 1, 2010.
At any time prior to October 1, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part of the Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, at a redemption
price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of
Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. 
 (2) Optional
Redemption on or After October 1, 2010. The Notes are not redeemable before October 1, 2010. Thereafter, the Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at
a redemption price at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest to (but not including) the redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on
October 1 of the years set forth below: 
  

				
	 Year
	  	Percentage	 
	 2010
	  	106.750	%
	 2011 and thereafter
	  	100.000	%

 In addition, the Company must pay accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, on
the Notes redeemed to the redemption date. 
 (3) Optional Redemption Upon Equity Offerings. At any time, or from time
to time, prior to October 1, 2010, the Company may, at its option, use an amount not to exceed the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued under the
Indenture at a redemption price of 113.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the date of redemption; provided that: 
 (i) at least 65% of the principal amount of Notes originally issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after any such
redemption; and 
 (ii) the Company makes such redemption not more than 120 days after the consummation of any such Equity
Offering. 
 (b) Mandatory Redemption. The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with
respect to the Notes. 
 6. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s registered address with a copy to the Trustee and Paying Agent. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, at any time, selection of
Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed, or, if the Notes are not so 

 
listed, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate; provided, that if any such
partial redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering, the Trustee will select the Notes only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures), unless such
method is otherwise prohibited. Notes in denominations of $1,000 may be redeemed only in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Notes that have
denominations larger than $1,000. 
 Except as set forth in the Indenture, if monies for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption
shall have been deposited with the Paying Agent for redemption on such Redemption Date sufficient to pay such Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, the Notes called for redemption will cease to bear
interest from and after such Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, as of the Redemption Date
upon surrender to the Paying Agent of the Notes redeemed. 
 7. Offers to Purchase. Sections 4.15, 4.16 and 4.27
of the Indenture provide that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, after certain Asset Sales and in the event of an Excess Cash Flow Offer, respectively, and subject to further limitations contained therein, the Company will make an offer to
purchase certain amounts of the Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. 
 8. Registration Rights. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchaser, the Company will be obligated to consummate an Exchange Offer. Upon such
Exchange Offer, the Holders of Notes shall have the right, subject to compliance with securities laws, to exchange such Notes for 12 1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2012, which have been registered under the Securities Act (the “Exchange Notes”), in like principal amount and having terms identical in all material respects to the Notes. The
Holders of the Notes shall be entitled to receive certain Additional Interest payments in the event such exchange offer is not consummated and upon certain other conditions, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights
Agreement. 
 9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of
$1,000 and integral multiples thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents
and to pay any taxes, fees or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of any Notes or portions thereof selected for redemption.

 10. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 11. Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent may pay
the money without interest thereon back to the Company. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease. 

 12. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. If the Company at any time deposits with the
Trustee U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or stated maturity and complies with the other provisions of the Indenture relating thereto, the Company will be
discharged from certain provisions of the Indenture and the Notes (including certain covenants, but excluding its obligation to pay the principal of and interest and Additional Interest, if any, on the Notes). 
 13. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Collateral Agreements may be
amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing Default or Event of Default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the
written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantees, or the Collateral
Agreements to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, provide for the assumption of the Company’s or any Guarantor’s obligations
in accordance with Section 5.01 and Section 10.04 of the Indenture, make any other change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders that does not adversely affect the legal rights of any Holder of a
Note, to comply with the TIA, to allow for additional guarantees, if necessary, in connection with any addition or release of Collateral permitted under the Indenture or the Collateral Agreements, to release a Guarantor from its Guarantee as
permitted by the Indenture and to conform the text of the Indenture, the Collateral Agreements, the Notes and the Guarantees to the Offering Circular if necessary. 
 14. Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Indebtedness or grant Liens, make
payments in respect of their Capital Stock or certain Indebtedness, enter into transactions with Affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting Subsidiaries, merge or consolidate with any other Person, sell, assign, transfer,
lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or adopt a plan of liquidation. Such limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions. The Company must annually report to the Trustee on
compliance with such limitations. 
 15. Successors. When a successor assumes, in accordance with the Indenture, all the obligations
of its predecessor under the Notes, the Guarantees and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from those obligations. 
 16.
Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than certain events of bankruptcy involving the Company), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes may declare
all the Notes to be due and payable in the manner, at the time and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not 

 
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations
therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event
of Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 
 17.
Trustee Dealings with Company. Subject to the terms of the TIA and the Indenture, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company, its
Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee. 
 18. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or
future affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator or holder of any equity interests in the Company or a Guarantor or any direct or indirect parent corporation of the Company or a Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any
obligations of the Company or a Guarantor under the Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases
all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. Each of the parties hereto acknowledge that such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws. 
 19. Guarantees. Payment of principal and interest (including interest on overdue principal and overdue interest, if lawful), is unconditionally
and irrevocably guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Guarantors. 
 20. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid
until the Trustee or Authenticating Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. 
 21. Governing Law. THIS
NOTE, THE INDENTURE, THE GUARANTEES AND THE COLLATERAL AGREEMENTS (OTHER THAN THE MORTGAGES) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW

under the Pledged Notes. Such Grantor, if it is an obligee under a Pledged Note, has not waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under such Pledged Notes. The proceeds of the loans evidenced by the Pledged Notes have been
fully disbursed and such Grantor has no obligation to make any future advances or other disbursements under or in respect of the Pledged Notes. A true, correct and complete list of the Pledged Notes is set forth on Schedule 10. 
 (i) Each Grantor has made in good faith and in accordance with the procedures and regulations of the United States Copyright Office and the United States
Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, all payments, filings and recordations necessary to protect and maintain its interest in the Intellectual Property rights identified on Schedules 2(a), 4(a) and 6(a) in the United
States in a manner sufficient to claim in the public record such Grantor’s ownership thereof, including (i) making all necessary registration, maintenance, and renewal fee payments; and (ii) filing all necessary documents, including
all applications for registration of such Intellectual Property rights. 
 (j) Except as set forth on Schedules 2, 4 or
6, no claim has been made in writing and is continuing or, to the best of each Grantor’s knowledge, threatened that the use by any Grantor of any Intellectual Property rights that are material to the conduct of its business does or may
violate the Intellectual Property rights of any Person. To the best of each Grantor’s knowledge, there is currently no infringement or unauthorized use of any item of Intellectual Property rights contained on Schedules 2, 4 or
6. 
 6. Covenants. Each Grantor, jointly and severally, covenants and agrees with Agent and the other Secured Parties that
from and after the date of this Agreement and until the date of termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 22 hereof: 
 (a) Possession of Collateral. In the event that any Collateral, including proceeds, is evidenced by or consists of Negotiable Collateral, Investment Related Property, or Chattel Paper, and if and to the extent that perfection or
priority of Agent’s Security Interest is 

  

 13 

 
dependent on possession, the applicable Grantor, immediately upon the request of Agent and in accordance with Section 8 hereof, shall execute
such other documents and instruments as shall be requested by Agent or, if applicable, endorse and deliver physical possession of such Negotiable Collateral, Investment Related Property, or Chattel Paper to the First Priority Agent if there are
First Priority Claims outstanding and otherwise to Agent, together with such undated powers endorsed in blank as shall be requested by Agent.

Commerce Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction; and 
 (ii) If any Grantor

extent otherwise permitted by the Indenture, each Grantor shall obtain authenticated Control Agreements, from each issuer of uncertificated securities, securities intermediary, or commodities intermediary issuing or holding any financial assets or
commodities to or for any Grantor. 
 (d) Letter of Credit Rights. Each Grantor that is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of
credit shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days after becoming a beneficiary), notify Agent thereof and, upon the request by Agent, enter into a tri-party agreement with Agent and the issuer or confirmation bank with respect to
letter-of-credit rights (as that term is defined in the Code) assigning such letter-of-credit rights to Agent and directing all payments thereunder to Agent’s Account, all in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.

necessary or desirable by Agent to give Agent a first priority, perfected security interest in any such Commercial Tort Claim. 
  

 14 

 (f) Government Contracts. If any Account or Chattel Paper arises out of a contract or contracts
with the United States of America or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, Grantors shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of the creation thereof) notify Agent thereof in writing and execute any instruments or take
any steps reasonably required by Agent in order that all moneys due or to become due under such contract or contracts shall be assigned to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Holders, and shall provide written notice thereof under the

the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby; 
 (ii) Each Grantor shall have the duty, to the extent

promptly file an application with the United States Copyright Office for any Copyright that has not been registered with the United States Copyright Office if such Copyright is necessary in connection with the operation of such Grantor’s
business. Any expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be borne by the appropriate Grantor. Each Grantor further agrees not to abandon any Trademark, Patent, Copyright, or Intellectual Property License that is material or
economically desirable to the operation of such Grantor’s business without the prior written consent of Agent; 
 (iii) Grantors
acknowledge and agree that neither Agent nor any Holder shall have any duties with respect to the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, or Intellectual Property Licenses. Without limiting the generality of this Section 6(g), Grantors
acknowledge and agree that neither Agent nor any Holder shall be under any obligation to take any steps necessary to preserve rights in the Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, or Intellectual Property Licenses against any other Person, but Agent may do
so at its option from and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and all expenses incurred in connection therewith (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professionals) shall be for the sole
account of Borrowers and shall be chargeable to the Loan Account; 
  

 15 

 (iv) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee, or designee,
file an application for the registration of any Patent, Trademark, or Copyright with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency without giving Agent prior written notice thereof.
Promptly upon any such filing, each Grantor shall comply with Section 6(g)(i) hereof; and 
 (v) With respect to the
Intellectual Property rights that are material to the conduct of Grantors’ businesses, each Grantor agrees to take all necessary steps to protect each such Intellectual Property right. Each Grantor hereby agrees to take corresponding steps with
respect to each new or acquired Intellectual Property right to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is now or later becomes entitled that are material to the conduct of their businesses. Any expenses incurred in connection with such activities shall
be borne solely by such Grantor.

All sums of money and property paid or distributed in respect of the Investment Related Property which are received by any Grantor shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the benefit of Agent segregated from such Grantor’s other property,

 (iii) Each Grantor shall promptly
deliver to Agent a copy of each notice or other communication received by it in respect of any Pledged Interests; 
 (iv) No Grantor shall
make or consent to any amendment or other modification or waiver with respect to any Pledged Interests, Pledged Operating Agreement, or Pledged Partnership Agreement, or enter into any agreement or permit to exist any restriction with respect to any
Pledged Interests other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents; 
 (v) Each Grantor agrees that it will cooperate with Agent in
obtaining all necessary approvals and making all necessary filings under federal, state, local, or foreign law in connection with the Security Interest in the Investment Related Property or any sale or transfer thereof; and 
 (vi) As to all limited liability company or partnership interests, issued under any Pledged Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, each
Grantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that the Pledged Interests issued pursuant to any such agreement (A) are not and shall not be dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, (B) do not and will not
constitute investment company securities, and (C) are not and will not be held by such Grantor in a securities account. In addition, none of the Pledged Operating Agreements, the Pledged Partnership Agreements, or any other agreements governing

  

 16 

 
any of the Pledged Interests issued under any Pledged Operating Agreement or Pledged Partnership Agreement, provide or shall provide that such Pledged
Interests are securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction. 
 (i) [Reserved]

 (j) Transfers and Other Liens. Grantors shall not (i) sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of,
or grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, except as expressly permitted by the Indenture, or (ii) create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral, except for Permitted Liens. The inclusion of
Proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed to constitute Agent’s consent to any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. 
 (k) Other Actions as to Any and All Collateral. Each Grantor shall promptly (and in any event within 2 Business Days of acquiring or obtaining
such Collateral) notify Agent in writing upon (i) acquiring or otherwise obtaining any Collateral after the date hereof consisting of Trademarks, Patents, Copyrights, Intellectual Property Licenses, Investment Related Property, Chattel Paper
(electronic, tangible or otherwise), documents (as defined in Article 9 of the Code), promissory notes (as defined in the Code), or instruments (as defined in the Code) or (ii) any amount payable under or in connection with any of the
Collateral being or becoming evidenced after the date hereof by any Chattel Paper, documents, promissory notes, or instruments and, in each such case upon the request of Agent and in accordance with Section 8 hereof, promptly execute such other

will waive or release any obligation of any party to the Pledged Notes without the prior consent of Agent;

after giving or receiving such notice; and 
  

 17

or surrender its rights and interests under the Pledged Notes nor terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement or amend the Pledged Notes. 
 (m) Motor Vehicles. Upon request of Agent, with respect to all motor vehicles owned by any Grantor, Grantor shall deliver to Agent, a certificate of title for all such motor vehicles and shall cause those title certificates to be
filed (with Agent’s Lien noted thereon) in the appropriate state motor vehicle filing office. 
 7. Relation to Other Security
Documents. The provisions of this Agreement shall be read and construed with the other Transaction Documents referred to below in the manner so indicated. 
 (a) Indenture. In the event of any conflict between any provision in this Agreement and a provision in the Indenture, such provision of the Indenture shall control. 
 (b) Patent, Trademark, Copyright Security Agreements. The provisions of the Copyright Security Agreements, Trademark Security Agreements, and
Patent Security Agreements are supplemental to the provisions of this Agreement, and nothing contained in the Copyright Security Agreements, Trademark Security Agreements, or the Patent Security Agreements shall limit any of the rights or remedies
of Agent hereunder. 
 8. Further Assurances. 
 (a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at its own expense, such Grantor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or that

 (b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the filing by Agent of financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such Grantor

 18 

 9. Agent’s Right to Perform Contracts, Exercise Rights, etc. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent (or its designee) (a) may proceed to perform any and all of the obligations of any Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and exercise any and all rights of any Grantor therein
contained as fully as such Grantor itself could, (b) shall have the right to use any Grantor’s rights under Intellectual Property Licenses in connection with the enforcement of Agent’s rights hereunder, including the right to prepare
for sale and sell any and all Inventory and Equipment now or hereafter owned by any Grantor and now or hereafter covered by such licenses, and (c) shall have the right to request that any Stock is pledged hereunder be registered in the name of
Agent or any of its nominees. 
 10. Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, at such time as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture, to take any action and to execute any
instrument which Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including: 
 (a) to ask,
demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with the Accounts or any other Collateral of such Grantor; 
 (b) to receive and open all mail addressed to such Grantor and to notify postal authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to such
Grantor to that of Agent; 
 (c) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, Negotiable Collateral or
Chattel Paper; 
 (d) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the
collection of any of the Collateral of such Grantor or otherwise to enforce the rights of Agent with respect to any of the Collateral; 
 (e)
to repair, alter, or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Person obligated to such Grantor in respect of any Account of such Grantor; 
 (f) to use any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, advertising matter or other industrial or
intellectual property rights, in advertising for sale and selling Inventory and other Collateral and to collect any amounts due under Accounts, contracts or Negotiable Collateral of such Grantor; and 
 (g) Agent on behalf of the Holders shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks, Patents,
Copyrights and Intellectual Property Licenses and, if Agent shall commence any such suit, the appropriate Grantor shall, at the request of Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents reasonably required by Agent in aid
of such enforcement. 
  

 19 

 To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated. 
 11. Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Agent incurred in
connection therewith shall be payable, jointly and severally, by Grantors. 
 12. Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on Agent
hereunder are solely to protect Agent’s interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of itself and the ratable benefit of the Holders, and shall not impose any duty upon Agent to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any
Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other
rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining
the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it
accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Agent in
good faith. The Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law
or by reason of any of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the
Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as
to the maintenance of the Collateral. 
 13. Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral. At any time upon
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent or Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of any Grantor that such Grantor’s Accounts, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper or Negotiable Collateral have
been assigned to Agent, for the benefit of the itself and the ratable benefit of the Holders, or that Agent has a security interest therein, and (b) collect such Grantor’s Accounts, General Intangibles and Negotiable Collateral directly,
and any collection costs and expenses shall constitute part of such Grantor’s Secured Obligations under the Transaction Documents. 
 14. Disposition of Pledged Interests by Agent. None of the Pledged Interests existing as of the date of this Agreement are, and none of the Pledged Interests hereafter acquired on the date of acquisition thereof will be, registered
or qualified under the various federal or state securities laws of the United States and disposition thereof after an Event of Default may be restricted to one or more private (instead of public) sales in view of the lack of such registration. Each
Grantor understands that in connection with such disposition, Agent may approach only a 

  

 20 

 
restricted number of potential purchasers and further understands that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for the Pledged Interests than
if the Pledged Interests were registered and qualified pursuant to federal and state securities laws and sold on the open market. Each Grantor, therefore, agrees that: (a) if Agent shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, sell or cause
the Pledged Interests or any portion thereof to be sold at a private sale, Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any nationally recognized brokerage or investment firm (but shall not be obligated to seek such advice and
the failure to do so shall not be considered in determining the commercial reasonableness of such action) as to the best manner in which to offer the Pledged Interest or any portion thereof for sale and as to the best price reasonably obtainable at
the private sale thereof; and (b) such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that Agent has handled the disposition in a commercially reasonable manner. 
 15. Voting Rights. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default,
(i) Agent may, at its option, and with prior notice to any Grantor, and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Agent under any other agreement, at law, in equity, or otherwise, exercise all voting rights, and all other ownership or
consensual rights in respect of the Pledged Interests owned by such Grantor, but under no circumstances is Agent obligated by the terms of this Agreement to exercise such rights, and (ii) if Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such
Pledged Interests, each Grantor hereby appoints Agent, such Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and IRREVOCABLE PROXY to vote such Pledged Interests in any manner Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be
submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. 
 (b) For so long as any Grantor shall have the right to vote the Pledged Interests owned by it, such Grantor covenants and agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Agent, vote or take any
consensual action with respect to such Pledged Interests which would adversely affect the rights of Agent or any Holder or the value of the Pledged Interests. 
 16. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
 (a) Agent may
exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Transaction Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any
other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor expressly agrees that, in any such event, Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except a notice specified below
of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon any of Grantors or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable
law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require Grantors to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral
as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at one or more locations where such Grantor regularly maintains Inventory, 

  

 21 

 
and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of
Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days notice to any of Grantors
of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition”
within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the
time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. 
 (b)
Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, service marks and
advertising matter, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, other industrial or intellectual property or any property of a similar nature, whether owned or licensable by any of Grantors or with respect to which any of Grantors have sublicensable
rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements, as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall
inure to the benefit of Agent. 
 (c) Any cash held by Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Agent in respect of any sale of,
collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 6.10 of the Indenture, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event the
proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations of each Grantor in full, each Grantor shall remain liable for any such deficiency in its Secured Obligations. 
 (d) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arose out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby
consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by Agent. 
 17. Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power, and remedy of Agent as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

  

 22 

 18. Marshaling. Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security
(including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and
remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby
agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of
the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby
irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws. 
 19. Indemnity and Expenses. 
 (a) Each Grantor agrees to indemnify Agent and the Holders from and against all claims, lawsuits and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys fees)
growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including enforcement of this Agreement) or any other Transaction Document to which such Grantor is a party, except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the party seeking indemnification as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Indenture and the repayment of the Secured
Obligations. 
 (b) Grantors, jointly and severally, shall, upon demand, pay to Agent (or Agent, may charge to the Loan Account) all the
expenses which Agent may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or, upon an Event of Default, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of
the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Agent hereunder or (iv) the failure by any of Grantors to perform or observe any of the
provisions hereof. 
 20. Merger, Amendments; Etc. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no
consent to any departure by any of Grantors herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and each of Grantors to which such amendment applies. 
 21. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner and delivered to
Agent at its address 

  

 23 

 
specified in the Indenture and to any of the Grantors at their respective addresses specified in the Indenture or a supplemental indenture, as applicable,
or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party. 
 22. Continuing
Security Interest: Assignments of the Notes. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash in accordance with
the provisions of the Transaction Documents, (b) be binding upon each Grantor, and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Holder may, in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Notes held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents, the Security Interest
granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantors or any other Person entitled thereto. At such time, Agent will file or authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements provided to it to terminate
such Security Interest. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Indenture, any other Transaction Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Grantor to Agent nor any
additional Advances or other loans made by any Lender to Borrowers, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to Grantors, or any of them, by Agent, nor any other act of the Holders, or any of them, shall
release any of Grantors from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its
rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such
right or remedy which Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion. 
 23. Governing Law. THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE
CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 24. New Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 4.14 of the Indenture, any new direct or
indirect Subsidiary (whether by acquisition or creation) of any Borrower or any other Grantor is required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering in favor of Agent a supplement to this Agreement in the form of Annex 1
attached hereto. Upon the execution and delivery of Annex 1 by such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of any
instrument adding an additional Grantor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of
any new Grantor hereunder. 
  

 24 

 25. Agent. Each reference herein to any right granted to, benefit conferred upon or power
exercisable by the “Agent” shall be a reference to Agent, for the benefit of itself and the ratable benefit of the Holders. 
 26.
Miscellaneous. 
 (a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts,
each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other
electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of
transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall
apply to each other Transaction Document mutatis mutandis. 
 (b) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

(c) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof.

 (d) The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular and plural, and the grammatical construction
of sentences shall conform thereto. 
 (e) Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document clearly requires otherwise,
references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive
meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document refer to this Agreement or such
other Transaction Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this
Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals,
replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and
supplements set forth herein). Any reference herein or in any other Transaction Document to the satisfaction or repayment in full of the Obligations shall mean the repayment in full in cash (or cash collateralization in accordance with the terms
hereof) of all Obligations other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s 

  

 25 

 
successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record
and any Record so transmitted shall constitute a representation and warranty as to the accuracy and completeness of the information contained therein. 
 (f) In connection with its execution and acting hereunder, Agent is entitled to all rights, privileges, protections, immunities, benefits and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture. 
 27. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, THE LIEN AND SECURITY INTEREST GRANTED TO THE
AGENT, FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITSELF AND THE HOLDERS, PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY BY THE AGENT AND THE OTHER SECURED PARTIES HEREUNDER ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF
ANY CONFLICT OR INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT SHALL CONTROL.
