 ARTICLE II 

CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS 

Section 2.1 Appointment of the Rights Agent; Issuance of CVRs. 

The Company hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and the
Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Company shall issue the CVRs at the Effective Time pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and the CVRs shall represent the right of the Holders to receive, in respect of each CVR held by such
Holder, the CVR Payment Amount (if any) if and when payable pursuant to this Agreement. The administration of the CVRs shall be handled pursuant to this Agreement in the manner set forth in this Agreement. 

Section 2.2 Nontransferable. 

The CVRs or any interest therein shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed
of, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer. 
 Section 2.3 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of
Transfer; Change of Address. 
 (a) The CVRs shall not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument. 

(b) The Rights Agent shall keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of CVRs in a book-entry position
for each Holder, transfers of CVRs as herein provided and any new issuances of CVRs in respect of any Reverted Company Shares. The CVR Register shall set forth the name and address of each Holder, the number of CVRs held by such Holder and the Tax
Identification Number of each Holder, which information, if not available to the Company’s transfer agent or provided by the Holder, shall be provided in writing to the Rights Agent by the Company. The CVR Register will be updated as necessary
by the Rights Agent to reflect the addition or removal of Holders (including pursuant to any Reverted Company Shares or Permitted Transfers), upon the written receipt of such information by the Rights Agent. Each of the Company and the Shareholder
Representative may receive and inspect a copy of the CVR Register, from time to time, upon written request made to the Rights Agent. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request, the Rights Agent shall mail a copy of the CVR
Register, as then in effect, to the Company and the Shareholder Representative at the address set forth in Section 7.1. 
 (c)
Subject to the restriction on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances relating to the transfer, and must be accompanied by
(i) a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered Holder thereof, the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative or survivor, (ii) the transfer certificate attached
hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and properly executed by both the registered Holder thereof, 

  
 9 

 
the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative or survivor and the proposed transferee, and (iii) any other requested documentation in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Rights Agent. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall, subject to its reasonable determination that the transfer instrument and the transfer certificate are in proper form and the
transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein including Section 2.2, register the transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register. The Rights Agent may rely on the information contained in the transfer certificate and
any of the documents required to be provided with the transfer certificate. All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same right, and shall entitle the transferee to the
same benefits and rights under this Agreement, as those held immediately prior to the transfer by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR shall be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any transfer not duly registered in the CVR Register will
be void ab initio (unless the transfer was permissible hereunder and such failure to be duly registered is attributable to the fault of the Rights Agent). Any transfer or assignment of the CVRs shall be without charge to the Holder; provided, that
the Company and the Rights Agent may require (i) payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp, transfer or other similar tax or charge that is imposed in connection with any such transfer or (ii) that the transferor establish to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Rights Agent that any such taxes have been paid. The Rights Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any action under this Section 2.3(c) unless and until the Rights Agent is satisfied that all such
taxes or charges have been paid in full. 
 (d) A Holder may make a written request to the Rights Agent to change such Holder’s address
of record in the CVR Register. The written request must be duly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register. 

Section 2.4 Payment Procedures; Payment Amount. 

(a) The Holders shall be entitled to the following payments in respect of their CVRs (any such payments, in the aggregate, the “CVR
Payment Amount”): 
 (i) Payment for Partial Casa Ley Sales. Subject to the procedures set forth in
Section 2.4(c), upon the consummation of any Partial Casa Ley Sale, each Holder of a CVR shall, in respect of such CVR, be entitled to and shall receive the Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR with respect to such Partial Casa Ley
Sale. 
 (ii) Payment for Entire Casa Ley Sales. Subject to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(d), upon the
consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale, each Holder of a CVR shall, in respect of such CVR, be entitled to and shall receive the Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR. 

(iii) Payment upon Sale Deadline. Subject to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(d), upon the Sale Deadline, each
Holder of a CVR shall, in respect of such CVR, be entitled to and shall receive the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR. 

  
 10 

 (iv) Deferred Cash Consideration. To the extent that any consideration pursuant to any
Partial Casa Ley Sale or Entire Casa Ley Sale includes any deferred cash consideration (including pursuant to any escrow, holdback or similar amount and including any such deferred cash consideration in connection with a Partial Casa Ley Sale or
Entire Casa Ley Sale consummated prior to the Closing), each Holder of a CVR shall be entitled to and shall receive an amount with respect to such CVR equal to (x) the amount of such deferred cash consideration received by the Company or any
Company Subsidiary (minus the product of (A) 39.25% and (B) the amount of such deferred cash consideration, less an allocable amount of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries’ tax basis in their Equity Interests in Casa Ley,
calculated under U.S. federal income tax principles, but only to the extent, if any, that such basis was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of the payments in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this
Section 2.4(a)), divided by (y) the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register as of the date of such calculation; provided that any CVR to which a Dissenting Stockholder would be entitled but for Section 2.3 of
the Merger Agreement shall be deemed to be outstanding and included in the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register for purposes of the calculation of the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register in this Section 2.4(a)(iv)(y). Such
deferred cash consideration amounts received by the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be paid by the Company, within two (2) Business Days after its receipt thereof, directly to the Rights Agent for payment to the Holders. 

(b) Currency Conversion. To the extent that any proceeds described herein are received in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the
amount of such proceeds shall be deemed to be the U.S. dollar amount actually received by the Company upon the Company’s conversion of such proceeds into U.S. dollars at the direction of the Shareholder Representative. To the extent any
expenses, fees or costs are incurred or paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the actual U.S. dollar amount that was paid, that was funded by the Company into the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or that was a Pre-Funded Amount
(excluding any amount that remains unused on the consummation of the Casa Ley Sale and that is distributed from the joint account to the Company on such date in accordance with Section 3.3(b) below) shall be used in the calculation of
the “Casa Ley Sale Expenses”. 
 (c) Procedure for Partial Casa Ley Sales. 

(i) Promptly following the closing of a Partial Casa Ley Sale but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Company
shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative (with a copy to the Rights Agent and Ultimate Parent) the Company’s good faith written calculation, in reasonable detail and with supporting documentation, work papers and receipts of the Partial
Casa Ley Net Proceeds and the resulting Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR (the “Partial CVR Payment Statement”), which shall be certified by the Company. The Partial CVR Payment Statement shall incorporate any Casa Ley
Sale Expenses of the Shareholder Representative set forth in writing by the Shareholder Representative to the Company within such ten (10) Business Day period, which shall be certified by the Shareholder Representative. Ultimate Parent and the
Company shall be protected in relying in good faith upon such certification. 
 (ii) Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the
Partial CVR Payment Statement, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Company and the 

  
 11 

 
Rights Agent (with a copy to Ultimate Parent) a notice specifying whether the Shareholder Representative agrees with (a “Notice of Agreement”) or objects to (a
“Notice of Objection”) such Partial CVR Payment Statement. 
 (iii) If the Shareholder Representative delivers a
Notice of Agreement, then any Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR shall be due and payable to the Holders pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(e) below. If the Shareholder Representative does not deliver either a Notice
of Objection or a Notice of Agreement within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Shareholder Representative shall be deemed to have delivered a Notice of Agreement with respect to such Partial CVR Payment Statement at the end of such
period. 
 (iv) Any Notice of Objection shall contain the Shareholder Representative’s calculation of the Partial CVR Net Proceeds and
the resulting Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR that such Shareholder Representative believes Holders are entitled to receive. Such Notice of Objection must also be accompanied by a description in reasonable detail of each of the objections to
the calculations reflected in the Notice of Objection (collectively, the “Objections”). For a period of ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of the Notice of Objection, the Company and the Shareholder Representative
shall, in good faith, try to resolve any Objections; provided, however, that to the extent that the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall disagree, the Shareholder Representative’s good faith calculation of the Partial
CVR Net Proceeds and the resulting Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR (as modified to give effect to the results of any discussions and negotiations pursuant to this clause (iv)) shall control. 

(d) Procedure for the Entire Casa Ley Sale or upon the Sale Deadline. 

(i) For a period of ten (10) Business Days following the occurrence of the Sale Deadline, the Company and the Shareholder Representative
shall attempt in good faith to agree on the Fair Market Value of any unsold Equity Interests in Casa Ley then owned by the Company or any Company Subsidiary. If the Company and the Shareholder Representative do not by mutual consent agree on the
Fair Market Value of any unsold Equity Interests of Casa Ley then owned by the Company or any Company Subsidiary within such ten (10) Business Day period, then either the Company or the Shareholder Representative may, by written notice to the
other (the “Referral Notice”), determine to refer such dispute to an independent investment banking firm. In the event that either the Company or the Shareholder Representative determines to refer such dispute to an
independent banking firm, then, within ten (10) Business Days following the date of delivery of the Referral Notice, each of the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall separately, by written notice to the other, select an
internationally recognized independent investment banking firm with expertise in valuing, selling or providing financing with respect to companies engaged, publicly or privately, in the food and drug retail business in Mexico and instruct such
investment banks to select and mutually agree upon another such independent investment banking firm to be retained, which such independent investment banking firm shall be instructed by the parties to, within twenty (20) Business Days from the
date of its retention, prepare and deliver to the Company and the Shareholder Representative such investment banking firm’s written determination of the Fair Market Value of such unsold Equity Interests of Casa Ley (which, for the avoidance of
doubt, 

  
 12 

 
shall not include, nor take into account, any minority, liquidity or similar discount to the valuation of Casa Ley in its entirety). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 2.4, in the event that the Company or any Company Subsidiary enters into an agreement to sell any unsold Equity Interests in Casa Ley after the three (3) year anniversary of the Closing but prior to the final payment of the
Sale Deadline Net Proceeds, then the Fair Market Value of any such unsold Equity Interests of Casa Ley for purposes of this Section 2.4(d)(i) shall be the greater of (x) the Fair Market Value as determined by either (A) the
mutual consent of the Company and the Shareholder Representative or (B) the independent investment banking firm and (y) the price per Equity Interest of the Equity Interests of Casa Ley set forth in such agreement (multiplied by the number
of unsold Equity Interests of Casa Ley owned by the Company as of the Sale Deadline). The determination of the Fair Market Value of any unsold Equity Interests in Casa Ley then owned by the Company or any Company Subsidiary in accordance with this
Section 2.4(d)(i) shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Shareholder Representative and any other Persons for purposes of calculating the Remaining Asset Amount. 

(ii) Promptly following the completion of the Entire Casa Ley Sale or the occurrence of the Sale Deadline, but in no event later than the
later of (A) twenty (20) Business Days thereafter and (B) three (3) Business Days following receipt of the calculation of the Fair Market Value referenced in Section 2.4(d)(i) above, the Company shall deliver to the
Shareholder Representative (with a copy to the Rights Agent and Ultimate Parent) the Company’s good faith written calculation of the Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds (including any Partial Casa Ley Sales), and the
resulting Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable (the “Entire CVR Payment Statement”). The Entire CVR Payment Statement shall incorporate any Casa Ley Sale Expenses of the
Shareholder Representative set forth in writing by the Shareholder Representative to the Company within such twenty (20) Business Day (or applicable later) period, which shall be certified by the Shareholder Representative. Ultimate Parent and
the Company may rely in good faith upon such certification. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall deliver an Entire CVR Payment Statement even if it believes that there are no Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per
CVR due and payable. Such Entire CVR Payment Statement will be accompanied by the Company’s calculation in reasonable detail of the components of the Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds, as applicable, including a good faith
written calculation, in reasonable detail and with supporting documentation, work papers and receipts, of the Casa Ley Sale Expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount and any
Pre-Funded Amounts pursuant to Section 3.3(b)), along with an Officer’s Certificate certifying such Casa Ley Sale Expenses and that the CVR Payment Amount was calculated in the manner required under this Agreement. The Shareholder
Representative may rely in good faith on such certification. 
 (iii) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Entire CVR Payment
Statement, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Company and the Rights Agent (with a copy to Ultimate Parent) a Notice of Agreement or a Notice of Objection to such Entire CVR Payment Statement. During such thirty (30) day period, the
Company shall cooperate with and permit, and Ultimate Parent shall cause the Company to cooperate with and permit, the Shareholder Representative and any accountant or other consultant or advisor retained by the Shareholder Representative access
during normal business hours to such records 

  
 13 

 
and personnel (including the external auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries) as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Entire CVR Payment Statement and the amounts
underlying the calculation of the entire CVR Payment Amount. 
 (iv) If the Shareholder Representative delivers a Notice of Agreement, then
any Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, shall be due and payable to the Holders pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(d) below, and, after delivery of any Casa Ley Net
Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, with respect to all Holders to the Rights Agent, Ultimate Parent and the Company shall thereafter have no further obligations with respect to such Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR
or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR. If the Shareholder Representative does not deliver either a Notice of Objection or a Notice of Agreement within such thirty (30) day period, then the Shareholder Representative shall be deemed to have
delivered a Notice of Agreement with respect to such Entire CVR Payment Statement at the end of such period. 
 (v) If the Shareholder
Representative delivers a Notice of Objection to the Company within such thirty (30) day period, such Notice of Objection shall contain the Shareholder Representative’s calculation of the Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net
Proceeds (including any Partial Casa Ley Sales), and the resulting Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable. Such Notice of Objection must also be accompanied by a description in reasonable detail of each of
the Objections, and a certificate certifying that the CVR Payment Amount reflected in the Notice of Objection was calculated in the manner required under this Agreement. 

(vi) If the Company does not agree with any of the Objections, the Objections that are in dispute shall be submitted to Grant Thornton LLP
(the “Neutral Auditor”). Such Neutral Auditor shall, within thirty (30) Business Days of such submission, resolve any differences between the Company and the Shareholder Representative and such resolution shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be final, binding and conclusive upon Ultimate Parent, the Company, the Shareholder Representative, each of the other parties hereto and each of the Holders. The costs, fees and expenses of such Neutral Auditor shall be
borne equally by the Company and the Shareholder Representative; with any such costs, fees and expenses of the Shareholder Representative being offset against any Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds (including any Partial Casa
Ley Sales), and the resulting Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any such costs, fees and expenses
of such Neutral Auditor to be borne by the Company shall not be considered to be Casa Ley Sale Expenses. Upon such resolution, the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall notify the Rights Agent in writing of such resolution and any Casa
Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, shall be due and payable to the Holders in respect of each CVR held by such Holder pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4 below, and, after
delivery of any Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, with respect to all Holders, the Rights Agent, Ultimate Parent and the Company shall thereafter have no further obligations with respect to the Casa
Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR and shall, subject to Section 2.4(e), no longer be entitled to (i) any amount to the extent reflected in any 

  
 14 

 
such finally resolved Casa Ley Net Proceeds or Sales Deadline Net Proceeds or (ii) any further Casa Ley Sale Expenses. To the extent that the Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net
Proceeds are less than zero, the Company shall bear any such costs, fees, expenses or losses. 
 (e) Once any Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds
Per CVR, Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR or any deferred cash consideration per CVR payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv) becomes due and payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv),
Section 2.4(c), Section 2.4(d) or Section 2.4(e), the Company shall establish a CVR Payment Date with respect to the CVR Payment Amount that is within five (5) Business Days thereafter and shall provide
written notice to the Rights Agent and Shareholder Representative of the same. At least two (2) Business Days prior to such CVR Payment Date, the Company shall cause all amounts to be paid to the Holders on such CVR Payment Date, whether
comprised of the Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds, the Casa Ley Net Proceeds, the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and/or the aggregate amount of deferred cash consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv), as applicable, to be delivered
to the Rights Agent, who will in turn, on the CVR Payment Date, pay the applicable Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR, Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR or deferred cash consideration per CVR payable pursuant to
Section 2.4(a)(iv) to each of the Holders (recalculated by the Company and the Shareholder Representative as of each CVR Payment Date to the extent needed to adjust for any Reverted Company Shares multiplied by the number of CVRs held by
such Holder as reflected on the CVR Register) by check mailed to the address of each Holder as reflected in the CVR Register as of the close of business on the last Business Day prior to such CVR Payment Date. Any Casa Ley Sale Expenses to the
extent not reflected in the finally resolved Casa Ley Net Proceeds or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds shall be deducted from any such deferred cash consideration. If no CVR Payment Amount is due and payable to the Holders pursuant to any Partial Casa Ley
Sale, the Entire Casa Ley Sale or at the Sale Deadline, the Rights Agent, upon written request from the Company and the Shareholder Representative, shall deliver notice of the same to the Holders within five (5) Business Days of being notified
that no such CVR Payment Amount is owing to the Holders. Whenever a payment is to be made by the Rights Agent, the Company shall deliver written instructions with respect to such payment that includes the aggregate amount of such payment to be paid
to the Holders, and the amount per CVR to be paid to each such Holder. Until such written instructions are received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no event has occurred that would require such payment. 

(f) The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the CVR Payment Amount otherwise payable
pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as it may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid
over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 

(g) Any funds comprising the cash deposited with the Rights Agent under Section 2.4(e) that remain undistributed to the Holders twelve
(12) months after the CVR Payment Date with respect to the Entire Casa Ley Sale or the Sale Deadline shall be delivered to the Company by the Rights Agent, upon written demand by the Company, and any Holders who have not theretofore received payment
in exchange for such CVRs shall thereafter look only to 

  
 15 

 
the Company for payment of their claim therefor; provided, that to the extent any deferred cash consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv) becomes due and payable after such
date, such deferred cash consideration shall be deposited with the Rights Agent pursuant to Section 2.4(e) and any such funds that remain undistributed shall only be delivered to the Company, upon written demand by the Company, twelve
(12) months after the Rights Agent’s receipt thereof, and upon delivery of such funds to the Company, the escheatment obligations of the Rights Agent with respect to such funds shall terminate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, any portion of the consideration provided by the Company to the Rights Agent that remains unclaimed immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity shall, to the
extent permitted by Law, become the property of the Company free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto, subject to any escheatment Laws. 

(h) During the period that the Rights Agent is in possession of the funds delivered to the Rights Agent for payment to Holders, the Rights
Agent shall identify, report and deliver all unclaimed portions of such amounts and related unclaimed property to all states and jurisdictions for the Company in accordance with applicable abandoned property law. None of the Company, the Shareholder
Representative or the Rights Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any funds delivered to a public official in compliance with any applicable state, federal or other abandoned property, escheat or similar law. In consideration of
receiving compensation from the agents of the states for processing and support services provided by the Rights Agent relating to initial compliance with applicable abandoned property law, the Rights Agent shall not charge the Company for such
services. In connection with providing such services, the Rights Agent may use the services of a locating service provider selected by the Rights Agent to locate and contact Holders, if any, who have not yet cashed their checks representing payment
of the funds deposited with the Rights Agent for payment to the Holders, which provider has agreed to compensate the Rights Agent for processing and other services the Rights Agent provides in connection with such locating services. Such provider
shall inform any such located Holders that they may choose either (i) to contact the Rights Agent directly to receive a check for payment of such amounts at no charge other than any applicable fees contemplated herein, or (ii) to utilize
the services of such provider for a fee to be specified in writing to such Holder, which may not exceed the lesser of 15% of the total value of such payment amount or the maximum statutory fee permitted by the applicable state jurisdiction. If the
Company requires the Rights Agent to work with a locating service provider other than one selected by the Rights Agent, additional fees may apply. 

(i) The Rights Agent shall not be obligated to perform wage or Form W-2 tax reporting, and to the extent that any wage or W-2 reporting is
required with respect to the payment of any funds hereunder to Holders, the Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent of the person or entity responsible for such wage or W-2 reporting. 

(j) All funds received by the Rights Agent under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by the Rights Agent in the performance
of its duties, obligations and responsibilities hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Company and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent
for the Company. Until disbursed pursuant to this Agreement, Computershare may hold or invest the Funds through such accounts in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the 

  
 16 

 
United States of America. The Rights Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit or investment made by the Rights Agent in
accordance with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party. Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits
or investments. No interest shall accrue on any funds deposited with the Rights Agent pursuant to this Agreement. Computershare shall not be obligated to calculate or pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Company, any Holder or any other
person or entity. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding three sentences are not meant to cover any interest included in the Casa Ley Net Proceeds, Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and/or any amounts paid pursuant to
Section 2.4(a)(iv). 
 Section 2.5 No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in Ultimate Parent
or the Company. 
 (a) The CVRs shall not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable on
the CVRs to any Holder (without prejudice to the inclusion in Casa Ley Net Proceeds and Sale Deadline Net Proceeds of the amounts referenced in Section 2.6). 

(b) The CVRs shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in Ultimate Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates, or in any
constituent company to the Merger. 
 Section 2.6 Establishment of Casa Ley CVR Bank Account. Any amounts paid to the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries in connection with any Partial Casa Ley Sale, any Entire Casa Ley Sale or in connection with any deferred cash consideration with respect thereto shall be held in a segregated bank account at a banking institution reasonably
acceptable to the Shareholder Representative established and maintained for the benefit of the Holders and invested in one or more Qualified Investments until any CVR Payment Amount is required to be paid pursuant to the terms hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, other than in connection with any payment pursuant to Section 2.4(e), the Company shall not withdraw any amounts from such bank account without the prior written consent of
the Shareholder Representative.

 17 

 
Person (A) of any kind whatsoever for or in respect of its performance of any duties imposed hereunder or for any actions taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this

involve material expense. All rights of action under this Agreement may be (and shall only be) enforced by the Shareholder Representative, and any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Shareholder Representative shall be brought in its name
as Shareholder Representative on behalf of the Holders, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of all the Holders, as their respective rights or interests may appear in the CVR Register.

The Rights Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied
duties, covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Rights Agent. In addition:

absence of gross negligence, bad faith or 

  
 18 

 
willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on its part, incur no liability, and shall be protected and be held harmless by the
Company, for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate; and (ii) whenever the Rights Agent shall reasonably require that a matter be
established or proved by the Shareholder Representative prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, the Rights Agent may request and rely upon a certificate signed by each then current individual member of the committee that

Agent, and the Rights Agent shall, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on its part, incur no liability, and shall be
protected and be held harmless by the Company, for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate; 

(c) the Rights Agent may engage and consult with counsel of its selection (who may be legal counsel for the Rights Agent or an employee of the
Rights Agent) and the written advice of such counsel or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon; 
 (d) the permissive rights of the Rights Agent to do things enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty; 

(e) the Rights Agent shall not be required to give any note or surety in respect of the execution of such powers or otherwise in respect of
the premises; 
 (f) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Rights Agent shall have no liability and shall be held harmless by
the Company in respect of the validity of this Agreement, the statements of fact or recitals contained herein (or be required to verify the same), or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution and delivery hereof by the Rights Agent
and the enforceability of this Agreement against the Rights Agent assuming the due execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company or any other party of any covenant or condition
contained in this Agreement nor shall the Rights Agent be responsible for, nor chargeable with, knowledge of, nor have any requirements to comply with, the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or document, including, without
limitation, the Merger Agreement, nor shall the Rights Agent be required to determine if any person or entity has complied with any such agreements, instruments or documents, nor shall any additional obligations of the Rights Agent be inferred from
the terms of such agreements, instruments or documents even though reference thereto may be made in this Agreement; 
 (g) notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Rights Agent shall in no event be liable for special, punitive or unforeseeable consequential damages (unless such damages are to third parties with respect to third party claims that result in a
judgment against the Rights Agent for such damages), and (ii) any liability of the Rights Agent, 

  
 19 

 
including, but not limited to, foreseeable consequential damages, shall be limited to the amount of fees paid by the Company to the Rights Agent (excluding amounts paid to the Rights Agent as
reimbursement for expenses and other charges); 
 (h) the Rights Agent and any of its affiliates may buy, sell or deal in any securities of
the Company or the Ultimate Parent or become peculiarly interested in any transaction in which the Ultimate Parent or the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Ultimate Parent or the Company or otherwise act as fully and
freely as though it were not the Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Ultimate Parent or the Company or for any other Person; and 

(i) the Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself
(through its directors, officers and employees) or by or through its attorneys or agents; provided that the Rights Agent shall be liable for breaches of this Agreement by such directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents. 

Section 3.3 Indemnity and Expenses. 

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Shareholder Representative Person and the Rights Agent for, and to hold
each Shareholder Representative Person and the Rights Agent harmless against, any loss, liability, judgment, fine, penalty, claim, demand, suit, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable costs and
expenses of legal counsel) arising out of or in connection with the Rights Agent’s and the Shareholder Representative’s respective duties under this Agreement, including the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of defending the
Rights Agent and each individual member of the Committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative against any claims, charges, demands, investigations, suits or loss or liability, or enforcement of its rights hereunder, unless it
shall have been finally determined by a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be a direct result of the Rights Agent’s or such Shareholder Representative Person’s, as applicable, gross negligence, bad faith or willful or
intentional misconduct. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 3.3(a) shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company for the reasonable expenses incurred by such Person entitled to be indemnified under
this Section 3.3(a) who was, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a claim, charge, demand, investigation or suit in advance of the final disposition thereof and without any determination as to the Person’s
ultimate entitlement to indemnification. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 3.3(a) shall have the effect of limiting or
denying any such rights with respect to claims, charges, demands, investigations and suits arising prior to any such amendment, modification or repeal. The Shareholder Representative Person’s aggregate liability to any Person with respect to,
arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder
by the Company to the Shareholder Representative as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses. Indemnification under this Section 3.3(a) shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which
initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. Any such amounts incurred by the Company in connection with this Section 3.3(a) shall be a Casa Ley Sale Expense. 

  
 20 

 (b) The Company or any of its Affiliates shall, if and as requested by the Shareholder
Representative at any time from and after the Effective Time through the termination of this Agreement, pay to or at the direction of the Shareholder Representative fees and expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative
pursuant to this Agreement (“Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount”). Subject to the next sentence, the Company or any of its Affiliates shall, if and as requested by the Shareholder Representative at any time from
and after the Effective Time through the termination of this Agreement, transfer to a joint account of the Company and the Shareholder Representative funds in the amount of $25,000,000 less the Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount
actually paid through that date for use as directed by the Shareholder Representative (the “Shareholder Representative Expense Amount”) pursuant to this Agreement. If any amounts are required in excess of $25,000,000 (and, to
the extent the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount has been funded, only after such amount has been fully expended), then at the request of the Shareholder Representative from time to time, the Company or an Affiliate of the Company will
promptly pay such additional fees and expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement and/or pre-fund to such joint account an amount reasonably specified by the Shareholder Representative in respect
of expected expenses in connection with the Casa Ley Sale (including payments to such advisors as the Shareholder Representative may choose to engage in connection with the Casa Ley Sale) and performance of its obligations and duties hereunder (any
such amount, a “Pre-Funded Amount”). Any amounts held in such joint account shall be treated as owned by the Company for all income tax purposes, any interest or other income earned with respect to such joint account shall be
reported as income of the Company for tax purposes and, for the avoidance of doubt, no portion of the Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount, the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or any Pre-Funded Amount shall be considered income
to the Shareholder Representative for tax purposes. The parties hereto will prepare all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing sentence. Any Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount and any amounts (and only such amounts)
actually spent from the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or Pre-Funded Amounts shall be included in the calculation of Casa Ley Sale Expenses hereunder. Any funds from the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or Pre-Funded Amounts that
remain unused on the earlier of the consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale and the Sale Deadline (taking into account the completion of the procedures set forth in Section 2.4) shall be distributed from the joint account to the Company
five (5) Business Days after the payment of the Casa Ley Net Proceeds Per CVR or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company or one of its Affiliates shall pay all Casa Ley Sales Expenses, including any such
Case Ley Sale Expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative, subject to the deduction of such Casa Ley Sale Expenses from the payments to the Holders as is provided for hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the
completion of an Entire Casa Ley Sale, the Company’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, will be required for any fees or expenses that the Shareholder Representative may wish to incur pursuant to this Section 3.3(b), to the
extent that the aggregate amount of such fees and expenses would exceed the amount of deferred consideration reasonably expected from such Entire Casa Ley Sale. 

  
 21 

 (c) The Company agrees, in all events (i) to pay the fees and expenses of the Rights Agent
in connection with this Agreement as set forth on Schedule 3.3(c) hereto and (ii) to reimburse the Rights Agent for all taxes and governmental charges (other than taxes measured by the Rights Agent’s income) and reasonable and
customary out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and customary fees and expenses of the Rights Agent’s counsel) paid or incurred by the Rights Agent in connection with the preparation, delivery, amendment, administration and execution of
this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. Any invoice for any out-of-pocket expenses and per item fees realized will be rendered and payable by the Company within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company,
except for postage and mailing expenses, which funds must be received one (1) Business Day prior to the scheduled mailing date. For the avoidance of doubt, 50% of such fees, expenses and reimbursements contained in this Section 3.3
shall be Casa Ley Sale Expenses and the remaining 50% of such fees, expenses and reimbursements shall not be Casa Ley Sale Expenses. 

Section 3.4 Resignation and Removal of Rights Agent and Shareholder Representative; Appointment of Successor. 

(a) The Rights Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company (with a copy to Ultimate Parent) and the
Shareholder Representative specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which notice shall be sent at least thirty (30) days prior to the date so specified. Any individual members of the committee that comprises or controls the
Shareholder Representative may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company (with a copy to Ultimate Parent), the Rights Agent and the Holders specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which notice shall be
sent at least thirty (30) days prior to the date so specified. 
 (b) If at any time the Rights Agent shall resign, be removed or
become incapable of acting, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a qualified successor Rights Agent reasonably satisfactory to the Shareholder Representative. The successor Rights Agent so appointed shall, upon its acceptance
of such appointment in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), become the successor Rights Agent. 
 (c) If (i) a successor
Rights Agent has not been appointed pursuant to Section 3.4(b) and has not accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the initial Rights Agent delivers notice of its resignation pursuant to Section 3.4(a) or
(ii) at any time the Rights Agent shall become incapable of acting, the incumbent Rights Agent, the Shareholder Representative or the Company may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Rights Agent, if applicable,
and the appointment of a successor Rights Agent. 
 (d) If at any time any individual members of the committee that comprises or controls
the Shareholder Representative shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, the remaining members of the committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative shall promptly appoint a qualified successor individual member to
such committee. If the individual members of the committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative unanimously determine that a third committee member would be appropriate, then the members of the committee that comprises or
controls the Shareholder Representative shall appoint, upon unanimous agreement, a qualified individual member to such 

  
 22 

 
committee. The successor or additional individual member so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with this Section 3.4(d), become a
successor or additional individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative; provided, that (x) such successor or additional individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative may not be
a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates and (y) the Company agrees to indemnify the Shareholder Representative for any and all actions taken in connection with this Section 3.4(d). 

(e) The Company shall give written notice of each resignation and each removal of a Rights Agent or individual member of the committee
comprising the Shareholder Representative and each appointment of a successor Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative to the then acting members of the committee comprising the Shareholder
Representative or then acting Rights Agent, as applicable, within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by a successor Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative. If requested, the
Rights Agent (or successor Rights Agent) shall mail notice of each resignation and each removal of a Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative and each appointment of a successor Rights Agent or
individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative to the Holders within ten (10) days after receipt of notice thereof and all necessary information from the Company. Each such notice provided to the Rights Agent,
Shareholder Representative, or Holders shall include the name and address of the successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, as applicable. 

Section 3.5 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

Every successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company
and to the retiring Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, as applicable, an instrument accepting such appointment and a counterpart of this Agreement, and thereupon such successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, without any further
act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative (as applicable); but, on request of the Company or the successor Rights Agent, such
retiring Rights Agent shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Rights Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Rights Agent.

 23 

 
Casa Ley or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) the Company shall vote (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to vote) their respective direct or indirect Equity Interests in Casa Ley and its

Company, or from such other agent performing similar services for the Company, or from the Company’s internal records with regard to Company Options, Restricted Shares, Performance Share Awards, Restricted Stock Units and shares credited in the
“stock credit accounts” to the extent no records from a third party agent are maintained in the ordinary course, the names and addresses of the Holders and the number of CVRs held by each such Holder, within five (5) Business Days of

 Section 4.3 Casa Ley Sale Process. 

(a) From and after the Effective Time until the consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale or the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the
Shareholder Representative shall be responsible for conducting the sale process of Casa Ley (or, to the extent a Casa Ley Sale involving a sale of Casa Ley Series A Shares is contemplated, responsible for overseeing and making any decisions on
behalf of the Company with respect to such sale process of Casa Ley, and the Company hereby agrees that it will act at the direction of the Shareholder Representative with respect to the voting of its Equity Interests in respect of any matters

  
 24 

 
concerning the Casa Ley Sale) and shall be empowered to take all actions necessary or advisable in order to consummate a Casa Ley Sale, including retaining advisors in connection with the Casa
Ley Sale, soliciting potential purchasers for the Equity Interests owned by the Company and any Company Subsidiary and determining which purchaser to select, negotiating the terms and conditions of any Casa Ley Sale Agreement, including the purchase

provisions, and effectuating the consummation of such Casa Ley Sale. 
 (b) During the period from and after the Effective Time until the
consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale or the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or cause to be provided to the Shareholder Representative all

of commercially reasonable efforts (i) to provide such information, financial or otherwise, with respect to Casa Ley, its Subsidiaries or the Casa Ley Business as the Shareholder Representative may reasonably request, to the extent such
information is reasonably available to, or can be reasonably obtained by, the Company or any Company Subsidiary, (ii) to assist in the preparation of disclosure schedules, exhibits and ancillary agreements contemplated in the applicable sales
agreement relating to the Entire Casa Ley Sale or any such Partial Casa Ley Sale to the extent such information is reasonably available to, or can reasonably be attained by, the Company or any Company Subsidiary and (iii) to assist in obtaining
approvals from Governmental Entities and consents and notices required to be obtained from or made to other Persons under the sales agreement relating to the Entire Casa Ley Sale or any such Partial Casa Ley Sale; provided, that, for the
avoidance of doubt, all out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses of the Company or its Affiliates in complying with this Section 4.3(b) shall be Casa Ley Sale Expenses, other than Excluded Expenses (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall
not be Casa Ley Sale Expenses). The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, afford to the Shareholder Representative reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours to the Company’s officers,
employees, properties, books, contracts and records as the Shareholder Representative may reasonably request relating to Casa Ley or its Subsidiaries; provided, that the Shareholder Representative shall conduct any such activities in such a
manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company. During the period from and after the Effective Time until the consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale or the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the Company

copies of any marketing or information materials, the prospective purchaser’s financial statements and the current interim drafts of any Casa Ley Sale Agreement, and shall provide reasonable
time to the Company and Ultimate Parent for review of such documents. 
 (d) In the event a definitive agreement is to be entered into prior

(i) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary to agree to any material operating restrictions applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary (other than customary (A) confidentiality and/or employee non-solicitation restrictions
that survive for no more than two (2) years from and after the Effective Time and, (B) restrictions relating to Casa Ley, any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective properties or assets, the Casa Ley Business, any portions thereof
or, to the extent such restrictions are reasonable, the Company’s or any Company Subsidiary’s management, operation or oversight thereof), (ii) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary to agree to any recourse applicable to the
Company or any Company Subsidiary in excess of any escrow amount, holdback or similar amount after the closing of such agreement other than with respect to any customary indemnity obligations that are shared proportionately (based on their
respective Equity Interests) among all of the participating Casa Ley shareholders for (A) any breaches by the Company or any Company Subsidiaries of (x) its covenants or agreements contained in such agreement or (y) any customary
representations in such agreement relating to organization, qualification, capitalization, title to assets, authority, no conflicts, brokers, taxes, or employee benefits or (B) pre-closing taxes relating to Casa Ley, any of its Subsidiaries,

after the closing of such agreement or (iv) be sold for a price that is payable in consideration other than cash or that, in the good faith judgment of the Shareholder Representative, would cause the Casa Ley Net Proceeds or the Partial Casa
Ley Net Proceeds from such sale agreement to be less than zero. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything in any definitive agreement with respect to the Entire Casa Ley Sale or any Partial Casa Ley Sale, the Shareholder
Representative shall control any third party claims relating to or arising under any such definitive agreement to the extent that any damages claimed thereunder are reasonably likely to be covered in full by any escrow, holdback or similar amount
thereunder without direct liability of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and any costs, fees or expenses incurred by such Shareholder Representative in connection therewith shall be included in Casa Ley Sale Expenses. 

(e) Upon the consummation of the Entire Casa Ley Sale or any Partial Casa Ley Sale, unless otherwise agreed to between the Company and the
purchaser under such Casa Ley Sale Agreement, all intercompany arrangements and obligations between the Company and Casa Ley will be terminated and the Company shall take all actions necessary or advisable to cause such termination.

Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
in writing, sent by overnight courier (providing proof of delivery) or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his, her or its address as it appears in the CVR Register, not later than the latest date, and not
earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect
the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. 
 Section 7.3 Counterparts; Headings. 

This Agreement may be executed in one or several counterparts (whether by facsimile, pdf or otherwise), each of which shall be deemed an
original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties (including by facsimile or other
electronic image scan transmission). The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof. 

Section 7.4 Assignment; Successors. 

(a) Subject to Section 6.1, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be
assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, that any entity into which the Rights Agent may be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any
merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent shall be a party, or any entity to which the Rights Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets and business, shall be the successor Rights Agent under this
Agreement upon the delivery of notice to the other parties hereto. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by all of the parties and their respective successors and assigns;
provided, that this Agreement may not be enforced directly by any Holder but may only be enforced on behalf of the Holders by the Shareholder Representative. 

Section 7.5 Benefits of Agreement. 

Except as set forth in ARTICLE III with respect to the Shareholder Representative Persons or the Rights Agent, nothing in this
Agreement, is intended to or be deemed to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors 

  
 32

Agreement and this Agreement may not be enforced directly by any Holder but may only be enforced on behalf of the Holders by the Shareholder Representative. 

Section 7.6 Governing Law. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to Laws that may be
applicable under conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Other than with respect to disputes
submitted to an independent investment banking firm under Section 2.4(d)(i) or the Neutral Auditor under Section 2.4(d)(vi), each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware and any appellate court thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding except in such court, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Delaware court, (iii) 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 such action or

CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD

 Section 7.8 Remedies. 

The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform their obligations under the
provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that prior to the termination of
this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.10, (a) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and
provisions hereof without proof of damages or the posting of any collateral, bond or other security, this being in addition to any other remedy available at law, in equity, under this Agreement or otherwise and (b) the right of injunctive
relief, specific enforcement and other equitable relief is an integral part of this Agreement and transactions related hereto. The parties also agree that the non-prevailing party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
non-appealable order) in any litigation relating to the enforcement of this Agreement shall reimburse the prevailing party for all costs incurred by the prevailing party (including reasonable legal fees in connection with any litigation). To the
extent the Shareholder Representative is the non-prevailing party, its reimbursement obligation under this Section 7.8 shall be a Casa Ley Sale Expense. 

Section 7.9 Severability Clause. 

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of
being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable
manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible. 

Section 7.10 Termination. 

This Agreement and each CVR shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and the parties hereto shall have no liability hereunder,
upon (i) the one (1) year anniversary of the later of (a) the payment of all Partial Casa Ley Net Proceeds, Casa Ley Net Proceeds, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and the payment of all deferred cash consideration pursuant to
Section 2.4(a)(iv), or (b) the Sale Deadline, or (ii) the written agreement of the Company and the Shareholder Representative to terminate this Agreement. Notice of any such termination will be promptly mailed by the Rights
Agent, upon the written request of the Company and the Shareholder Representative and accompanied by the form of such notice, to the Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Section 3.1,
Section 3.2, Section 3.3, and this ARTICLE VII shall survive the termination of this Agreement indefinitely and the resignation, replacement or removal of the Rights Agent. 

  
 34 

 Section 7.11 Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, the Merger Agreement, all documents and instruments referenced herein and therein, and all exhibits and schedules attached to
the foregoing, constitute the entire agreement of the parties (other than the Rights Agent) and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter
hereof and thereof. If and to the extent that any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or conflicts with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement shall govern and be controlling. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between the Rights Agent, on the
one hand, and any other person or entity, on the other hand, this Agreement alone constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of such parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. 

Section 7.12 Suits for Enforcement. 

In a case where breach has occurred, has not been waived and is continuing, the Shareholder Representative may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Agreement by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Shareholder Representative shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights (unless authorization and/or appearance of
each of the Holders is required by applicable Law), either at Law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted in this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Shareholder Representative by this Agreement or by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any liability of any of the
parties hereunder (including the Shareholder Representative) for breach of its obligations under this Agreement shall not (other than in connection with fraud or willful misconduct, or third party claims from third parties arising out of such
party’s breach of this Agreement) include any unforeseeable and remote indirect or consequential damages, or any special or punitive damages. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, any liability of the Company may include the benefit of
the bargain lost by the Holders to the extent proximately caused by such breach (taking into consideration relevant matters, including the total amount payable to such Holders under this Agreement but for such breach, the time value of money, and
any costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative Persons in connection therewith) which shall be deemed in such event to be damages recoverable by the Shareholder Representative for the benefit of the Holders. With respect to
any party other than the Company, under no circumstances shall such party be liable for monetary damages hereunder.

	 	Re:	CVRs issued by Safeway Inc. 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

                       
                  as Holder intends to transfer the above captioned CVR to
                                        
(“Permitted Transferee”), for registration in the name of
                                        .

 1. In connection with such transfer and in accordance with Section 2.3(c) of the CASA LEY CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated
as of January 30, 2015, entered into by and among AB Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Safeway Inc., a Delaware corporation, Computershare Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., together as
rights agent, and the Shareholder Representative (the “Agreement”), the Holder hereby certifies that this transfer is a Permitted Transfer and that the Permitted Transferee is permitted to hold the CVRs in accordance with the terms of the
Agreement. 
 2. The transfer is a Permitted Transfer for the following reason: 

[Check the appropriate box and initial any applicable substatement] 

 ̈    The CVRs are being transferred as a result of the death of a Holder
by will or intestacy. 
              An official copy of
the death certificate of the Holder and such Holder’s last will and testament and a signed copy of Letters Testamentary, Letters of Administration or equivalent document dated within 60 days are being provided herewith. 

             An official copy of the death certificate of
the Holder is being provided herewith; the Holder has no will and the CVRs are passing via the rules of intestacy. 
  ̈    The CVRs are being transferred by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the CVRs are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustee. The trustee is
the Holder immediately prior to the transfer. Official copies of the death certificates and applicable trust documents authorizing distribution to the named beneficiaries are being provided herewith. 

  
 A-1 

  ̈    The CVRs are being
transferred pursuant to a court order (including a court order issued in connection with divorce, bankruptcy or liquidation). A copy of the court order and, if appointed, evidence of appointment as: Tutor, Guardian, Conservator, Committee, Attorney
or Agent dated within 60 days are being provided herewith. 
  ̈    The
Holder is a corporation and the CVRs are being transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its stockholders. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and
the company has reasonably determined after consultation with counsel that such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the unanimous written consent of the
board of the company or an executed copy of the corporate resolution dated within 180 days authorizing and approving such distribution (and authorizing the signing officer to effect the transaction) and a certificate by or on behalf of the company
stating that that such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act are being provided herewith. Evidence of such Permitted Transferee being a shareholder of the Holder is also
being provided herewith. The corporate resolution, if provided, is not executed solely by the signing officer. 
  ̈    The Holder is a partnership and the CVRs are being transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its partners. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement
of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the current partnership agreement is being provided herewith, together with evidence of the authority of any signatory on behalf of the partnership. 

 ̈    The Holder is a limited liability company and the CVRs are being
transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its members. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the operating agreement is being provided
herewith, together with an executed copy of the resolution dated within 180 days authorizing the signing managing member/manager to effect the transaction. If the limited liability company has more than one managing member/manager, this resolution
is not executed solely by the signing managing member/manager. 

 ̈    The CVRs are being transferred by a transfer made by operation of law
(including a consolidation, dissolution or merger) or without consideration in connection with the dissolution, liquidation or termination of any corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity. Documents sufficiently evidencing
such activities are being provided herewith, together with, if such transfer by operation of law requires shareholder or board of director or similar approval, an executed copy of the resolution dated within 180 days authorizing the signing officer,
managing member/manager or other signatory to effect the event. If such entity has more than one signing officer, managing member/manager or other signatory, this resolution is not executed solely by the signing officer, managing member/manager
or other signatory. 

  
 A-2 

 3. If not previously provided to the Rights Agent and if requested by the Rights Agent, a fully
completed and executed Form W-9 or Form W-8, as applicable, of the Permitted Transferee is being provided herewith. 
 4. All capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have such meanings as are ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. 
 5. By execution hereof the
Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound, as Holder, by all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Agreement. 
 6. This document may
be executed in one or more counterparts and by the different parties hereof on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed to be an original; such counterparts, together, shall constitute one and the same document. The
Holder and the Permitted Transferee both understand that the Rights Agent may require a Medallion Guarantee of Signature at a level acceptable to the Rights Agent. 

IN WITNESS WHEREFORE, each of the parties have caused this document to be executed individually or by their duly authorized officers or
representatives as of the date set forth below.

 ARTICLE II 

CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS 

Section 2.1 Appointment of the Rights Agent; Issuance of CVRs. 

The Company hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and the
Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Company shall issue the CVRs at the Effective Time pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and the CVRs shall represent the right of the Holders to receive, in respect of each CVR held by such
Holder, the CVR Payment Amount (if any) if and when payable pursuant to this Agreement. The administration of the CVRs shall be handled pursuant to this Agreement in the manner set forth in this Agreement. 

Section 2.2 Nontransferable. 

The CVRs or any interest therein shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed
of, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer. 
 Section 2.3 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of
Transfer; Change of Address. 
 (a) The CVRs shall not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument. 

(b) The Rights Agent shall keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of CVRs in a book-entry position
for each Holder, transfers of CVRs as herein provided and any new issuances of CVRs in respect of any Reverted Company Shares. The CVR Register shall set forth the name and address of each Holder, the number of CVRs held by such Holder and the Tax
Identification Number of each Holder, which information, if not available to the Company’s transfer agent or provided by the Holder, shall be provided in writing to the Rights Agent by the Company. The CVR Register will be updated as necessary
by the Rights Agent to reflect the addition or removal of Holders (including pursuant to any Reverted Company Shares or Permitted Transfers), upon the written receipt of such information by the Rights Agent. Each of the Company and the Shareholder
Representative may receive and inspect a copy of the CVR Register, from time to time, upon written request made to the Rights Agent. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request, the Rights Agent shall mail a copy of the CVR
Register, as then in effect, to the Company and the Shareholder Representative at the address set forth in Section 7.1. 
 (c)
Subject to the restriction on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances relating to the transfer, and must be accompanied by
(i) a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered Holder thereof, the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative or survivor, (ii) the transfer certificate attached
hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and properly executed by both the registered Holder thereof, 

  
 10 

 
the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, the Holder’s personal representative or survivor and the proposed transferee, and (iii) any other requested documentation in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Rights Agent. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall, subject to its reasonable determination that the transfer instrument and the transfer certificate are in proper form and the
transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein including Section 2.2, register the transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register. The Rights Agent may rely on the information contained in the transfer certificate and
any of the documents required to be provided with the transfer certificate. All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same right, and shall entitle the transferee to the
same benefits and rights under this Agreement, as those held immediately prior to the transfer by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR shall be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any transfer not duly registered in the CVR Register will
be void ab initio (unless the transfer was permissible hereunder and such failure to be duly registered is attributable to the fault of the Rights Agent). Any transfer or assignment of the CVRs shall be without charge to the Holder; provided, that
the Company and the Rights Agent may require (i) payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp, transfer or other similar tax or charge that is imposed in connection with any such transfer or (ii) that the transferor establish to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Rights Agent that any such taxes have been paid. The Rights Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any action under this Section 2.3(c) unless and until the Rights Agent is satisfied that all such
taxes or charges have been paid in full. 
 (d) A Holder may make a written request to the Rights Agent to change such Holder’s address
of record in the CVR Register. The written request must be duly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register.

Partial PDC Sale or Entire PDC Sale includes any deferred cash consideration (including pursuant to any escrow, holdback or similar amount and including any such deferred cash consideration in connection with a Partial PDC Sale or Entire PDC Sale
consummated prior to the Closing), each Holder of a CVR shall be entitled to and shall receive an amount with respect to such CVR equal to (x) the amount of such deferred cash consideration received by the Company or any Company Subsidiary

federal income tax principles, but only to the extent, if any, that such basis was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of the payments in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 2.4(a)) divided
by (y) the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register as of the date of such calculation; provided, that any CVR to which a Dissenting Stockholder would be entitled but for Section 2.3 of the Merger Agreement shall be deemed to
be outstanding and included in the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register for purposes of the calculation of the number of CVRs listed in the CVR Register in this Section 2.4(a)(iv)(y). Such deferred cash consideration amounts
received by the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be paid by the Company, within two (2) Business Days after its receipt thereof, directly to the Rights Agent for payment to the Holders. 

(b) Procedure for Partial PDC Sales. 

(i) Promptly following the closing of a Partial PDC Sale but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall

Shareholder Representative set forth in writing by the Shareholder Representative to the Company within such ten (10) Business Day period, which shall be certified by the Shareholder Representative. Ultimate Parent and the Company shall be
protected in relying in good faith upon such certification. 
 (ii) Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Partial CVR
Payment Statement, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Company and the Rights Agent (with a copy to Ultimate Parent) a notice specifying whether the Shareholder Representative agrees with (a “Notice of
Agreement”) or objects to (a “Notice of Objection”) such Partial CVR Payment Statement. 
 (iii) If
the Shareholder Representative delivers a Notice of Agreement, then any Partial PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR shall be due and payable to the Holders pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(c) below. If the Shareholder
Representative does not deliver either a Notice of Objection or a Notice of Agreement within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Shareholder Representative shall be deemed to have delivered a Notice of Agreement with respect to such
Partial CVR Payment Statement at the end of such period. 

  
 12

the Partial CVR Net Proceeds and the resulting Partial PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR that such Shareholder Representative believes Holders are entitled to receive. Such Notice of Objection must also be accompanied by a description in reasonable detail of
each of the objections to the calculations reflected in the Notice of Objection (collectively, the “Objections”). For a period of ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of the Notice of Objection, the Company and the
Shareholder Representative shall, in good faith, try to resolve any Objections; provided, however, that to the extent that the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall disagree, the Shareholder Representative’s good faith
calculation of the Partial CVR Net Proceeds and the resulting Partial PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR (as modified to give effect to the results of any discussions and negotiations pursuant to this clause (iv)) shall control. 

(c) Procedure for the Entire PDC Sale or upon the Sale Deadline. 

(i) For a period of ten (10) Business Days following the occurrence of the Sale Deadline, the Company and the Shareholder Representative
shall attempt in good faith to agree on the Fair Market Value of each Unsold Material PDC Asset using a generally accepted valuation method. If the Company and the Shareholder Representative cannot by mutual consent agree on the Fair Market Value of
any Unsold Material PDC Assets within such ten (10) Business Day period, then, with respect to each Unsold Material PDC Asset on which the Company and the Shareholder Representative do not agree on the Fair Market Value (a “Disputed
Unsold Material PDC Asset”), either the Company or the Shareholder Representative may, by written notice to the other (the “Referral Notice”), determine to refer such dispute to the Selected Real Estate Appraiser
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.4(c)(i). In the event that either the Company or the Shareholder Representative determines to refer such dispute to the Selected Real Estate Appraiser, then, within ten
(10) Business Days following the delivery of the Referral Notice, each of the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall separately, by written notice to the other, select an independent MAI certified real estate appraiser from a
nationally recognized appraisal firm that has not been engaged by PDC, the Company or the Shareholder Representative in connection with the PDC sale process, which appraiser shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the
date of such selection in the appraisal of shopping center properties located in the vicinity of such Disputed Unsold Material PDC Asset (each such real estate appraiser, a “Qualified Real Estate Appraiser”), and the Company
and the Shareholder Representative shall instruct such Qualified Real Estate Appraisers to select and mutually agree upon a third Qualified Real Estate Appraiser, which such Qualified Real Estate Appraiser shall be the Selected Real Estate Appraiser
with respect to such Disputed Unsold Material PDC Asset. The parties shall instruct the Selected Real Estate Appraiser to, within twenty (20) Business Days from the date of its retention, prepare and deliver to the Company and the Shareholder
Representative such Selected Real Estate Appraiser’s written opinion of the Fair Market Value of such Disputed Unsold Material PDC Asset (taking into consideration all office equipment, fixtures, development rights, leases and other agreements
and other property or assets (tangible or intangible) associated with such Disputed Unsold Material PDC Asset and owned by PDC as of the Sale Deadline). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.4, in the event
that the Company or any Company Subsidiary enters into an agreement to sell any Material Unsold PDC Assets after the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing but prior to the final payment of the Sale

  
 13 

 
Deadline Net Proceeds, then the Fair Market Value of each such Material Unsold PDC Asset for purposes of this Section 2.4(c)(i) shall be the greater of (x) the Fair Market Value
as determined by either (A) the mutual consent of the Company and the Shareholder Representative or (B) the Selected Real Estate Appraiser and (y) the price of such Material Unsold PDC Assets set forth in such agreement. The
determination of the Fair Market Value of any Disputed Unsold Material PDC Asset in accordance with this Section 2.4(c)(i) shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Shareholder Representative and any other Person for purposes
of calculating the Remaining Asset Amount. 
 (ii) Promptly following the completion of the Entire PDC Sale or the occurrence of the Sale
Deadline, but in no event later than the later of (A) twenty (20) Business Days thereafter and (B) three (3) Business Days following the date that Fair Market Value of all Unsold Material PDC Assets has been determined in
accordance with Section 2.4(c)(i) above, the Company shall deliver to the Shareholder Representative (with a copy to the Rights Agent and Ultimate Parent) the Company’s good faith written calculation of the PDC Net Proceeds or the
Sale Deadline Net Proceeds (including any Partial PDC Sales), and the resulting PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable (the “Entire CVR Payment Statement”). The Entire CVR Payment
Statement shall incorporate any PDC Sale Expenses of the Shareholder Representative set forth in writing by the Shareholder Representative to the Company within such twenty (20) Business Day period, which shall be certified by the Shareholder
Representative. Ultimate Parent and the Company may rely in good faith upon such certification. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall deliver an Entire CVR Payment Statement even if it believes that there are no PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or
Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR due and payable. Such Entire CVR Payment Statement will be accompanied by the Company’s calculation in reasonable detail of the components of the PDC Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds, as
applicable, including a good faith written calculation, in reasonable detail and with supporting documentation, work papers and receipts, of the PDC Sale Expenses incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than the Shareholder
Representative Expense Amount and any Pre-Funded Amounts pursuant to Section 3.3(b)), along with an Officer’s Certificate certifying such PDC Sale Expenses and that the CVR Payment Amount was calculated in the manner required under
this Agreement. The Shareholder Representative may rely in good faith on such certification. 
 (iii) Within thirty (30) days after
receipt of the Entire CVR Payment Statement, the Shareholder Representative shall deliver to the Company and the Rights Agent (with a copy to Ultimate Parent) a Notice of Agreement or a Notice of Objection to such Entire CVR Payment Statement.
During such thirty (30) day period, the Company shall cooperate with and permit, and Ultimate Parent shall cause the Company to cooperate with and permit, the Shareholder Representative and any accountant or other consultant or advisor retained
by the Shareholder Representative access during normal business hours to such records and personnel (including the external auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries) as may be reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Entire CVR Payment
Statement and the amounts underlying the calculation of the CVR Payment Amount. 
 (iv) If the Shareholder Representative delivers a Notice
of Agreement, then any PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, shall be due and payable to the Holders pursuant to the procedures set forth in this 

  
 14 

 
Section 2.4(d) below, and, after delivery of any PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, with respect to all Holders to the Rights Agent,
Ultimate Parent and the Company shall thereafter have no further obligations with respect to such PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR. If the Shareholder Representative does not deliver either a Notice of Objection or a
Notice of Agreement within such thirty (30) day period, then the Shareholder Representative shall be deemed to have delivered a Notice of Agreement with respect to such Entire CVR Payment Statement at the end of such period. 

(v) If the Shareholder Representative delivers a Notice of Objection to the Company within such thirty (30) day period, such Notice of
Objection shall contain the Shareholder Representative’s calculation of the PDC Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds (including any Partial PDC Sales), and the resulting PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR,
as applicable. Such Notice of Objection must also be accompanied by a description in reasonable detail of each of the Objections, and a certificate certifying that the CVR Payment Amount reflected in the Notice of Objection was calculated in the
manner required under this Agreement. 
 (vi) If the Company does not agree with any of the Objections, the Objections that are in dispute
shall be submitted to Grant Thornton LLP (the “Neutral Auditor”). Such Neutral Auditor shall, within thirty (30) Business Days of such submission, resolve any differences between the Company and the Shareholder
Representative and such resolution shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final, binding and conclusive upon Ultimate Parent, the Company, the Shareholder Representative, each of the other parties hereto and each of the Holders. The costs, fees
and expenses of such Neutral Auditor shall be borne equally by the Company and the Shareholder Representative; with any such costs, fees and expenses of the Shareholder Representative being offset against any PDC Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline
Net Proceeds (including any Partial PDC Sales), and the resulting PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
any such costs, fees and expenses of such Neutral Auditor to be borne by the Company shall not be considered to be PDC Sale Expenses. Upon such resolution, the Company and the Shareholder Representative shall notify the Rights Agent in writing of
such resolution and any PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, shall be due and payable to the Holders in respect of each CVR held by such Holder pursuant to the procedures set forth in this
Section 2.4 below, and, after delivery of any PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR, as applicable, with respect to all Holders, the Rights Agent, Ultimate Parent and the Company shall thereafter have no further
obligations with respect to the PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR and shall, subject to Section 2.4(d), no longer be entitled to (i) any amount to the extent reflected in any such finally resolved PDC
Net Proceeds or Sales Deadline Net Proceeds or (ii) any further PDC Sale Expenses. To the extent that the PDC Net Proceeds or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds are less than zero, the Company shall bear any such costs, fees, expenses or losses.

 (d) Once any Partial PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR, PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR or any deferred cash
consideration per CVR payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv) becomes due and payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv), 

  
 15 

 
Section 2.4(b), Section 2.4(c) or Section 2.4(d), the Company shall establish a CVR Payment Date with respect to the CVR Payment Amount that is within five
(5) Business Days thereafter and shall provide written notice to the Rights Agent and Shareholder Representative of the same. At least two (2) Business Days prior to such CVR Payment Date, the Company shall cause all amounts to be paid to
the Holders on such CVR Payment Date, whether comprised of the Partial PDC Net Proceeds, the PDC Net Proceeds, the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and/or the aggregate amount of deferred cash consideration payable pursuant to
Section 2.4(a)(iv), as applicable, to be delivered to the Rights Agent, who will in turn, on the CVR Payment Date, pay the applicable Partial PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR, PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR or
deferred cash consideration per CVR payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv) to each of the Holders (recalculated by the Company and the Shareholder Representative as of each CVR Payment Date to the extent needed to adjust for any Reverted
Company Shares multiplied by the number of CVRs held by such Holder as reflected on the CVR Register) by check mailed to the address of each Holder as reflected in the CVR Register as of the close of business on the last Business Day prior to
such CVR Payment Date. Any PDC Sale Expenses to the extent not reflected in the finally resolved PDC Net Proceeds or Sale Deadline Net Proceeds shall be deducted from any such deferred cash consideration. If no CVR Payment Amount is due and payable
to the Holders pursuant to any Partial PDC Sale, the Entire PDC Sale or at the Sale Deadline, the Rights Agent, upon written request from the Company and the Shareholder Representative, shall deliver notice of the same to the Holders within five
(5) Business Days of being notified that no such CVR Payment Amount is owing to the Holders. Whenever a payment is to be made by the Rights Agent, the Company shall deliver written instructions with respect to such payment that includes the
aggregate amount of such payment to be paid to the Holders, and the amount per CVR to be paid to each such Holder. Until such written instructions are received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively that no event has occurred
that would require such payment. 
 (e) The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the
CVR Payment Amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as it may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent
that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and
withholding was made. 
 (f) Any funds comprising the cash deposited with the Rights Agent under Section 2.4(d) that remain
undistributed to the Holders twelve (12) months after the CVR Payment Date with respect to the Entire PDC Sale or the Sale Deadline shall be delivered to the Company by the Rights Agent, upon written demand by the Company, and any Holders who have
not theretofore received payment in exchange for such CVRs shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment of their claim therefor; provided, that to the extent any deferred cash consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv)
becomes due and payable after such date, such deferred cash consideration shall be deposited with the Rights Agent pursuant to Section 2.4(d) and any such funds that remain undistributed shall only be delivered to the Company, upon written
demand by the Company, twelve (12) months after the Rights Agent’s receipt thereof, and upon delivery of such funds to the Company, the escheatment obligations of the Rights Agent with respect to such funds shall terminate. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary 

  
 16 

 
herein, any portion of the consideration provided by the Company to the Rights Agent that remains unclaimed immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become
property of, any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by Law, become the property of the Company free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto, subject to any escheatment Laws. 

(g) During the period that the Rights Agent is in possession of the funds delivered to the Rights Agent for payment to Holders, the Rights
Agent shall identify, report and deliver all unclaimed portions of such amounts and related unclaimed property to all states and jurisdictions for the Company in accordance with applicable abandoned property law. None of the Company, the Shareholder
Representative or the Rights Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any funds delivered to a public official in compliance with any applicable state, federal or other abandoned property, escheat or similar law. In consideration of
receiving compensation from the agents of the states for processing and support services provided by the Rights Agent relating to initial compliance with applicable abandoned property law, the Rights Agent shall not charge the Company for such
services. In connection with providing such services, the Rights Agent may use the services of a locating service provider selected by the Rights Agent to locate and contact Holders, if any, who have not yet cashed their checks representing payment
of the funds deposited with the Rights Agent for payment to the Holders, which provider has agreed to compensate the Rights Agent for processing and other services the Rights Agent provides in connection with such locating services. Such provider
shall inform any such located Holders that they may choose either (i) to contact the Rights Agent directly to receive a check for payment of such amounts at no charge other than any applicable fees contemplated herein, or (ii) to utilize
the services of such provider for a fee to be specified in writing to such Holder, which may not exceed the lesser of 15% of the total value of such payment amount or the maximum statutory fee permitted by the applicable state jurisdiction. If the
Company requires the Rights Agent to work with a locating service provider other than one selected by the Rights Agent, additional fees may apply. 

(h) The Rights Agent shall not be obligated to perform wage or Form W-2 tax reporting, and to the extent that any wage or W-2 reporting is
required with respect to the payment of any funds hereunder to Holders, the Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent of the person or entity responsible for such wage or W-2 reporting. 

(i) All funds received by the Rights Agent under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by the Rights Agent in the performance
of its duties, obligations and responsibilities hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Company and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent
for the Company. Until disbursed pursuant to this Agreement, Computershare may hold or invest the Funds through such accounts in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America. The Rights Agent shall have no responsibility or
liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit or investment made by the Rights Agent in accordance with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third
party. Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits or investments. No interest shall accrue on any funds deposited with the Rights Agent pursuant to this Agreement. Computershare
shall not be obligated to calculate or pay such interest, dividends or earnings to 

  
 17 

 
the Company, any Holder or any other person or entity. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding three sentences are not meant to cover any interest included in the PDC Net Proceeds, Partial PDC
Net Proceeds, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and/or any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iv). 
 Section 2.5 No
Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in Ultimate Parent or the Company. 
 (a) The CVRs shall not have any
voting or dividend rights, and interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs to any Holder (without prejudice to the inclusion in PDC Net Proceeds and Sale Deadline Net Proceeds of the amounts referenced in Section 2.6).

 (b) The CVRs shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in Ultimate Parent, the Company or any of their Affiliates, or in any
constituent company to the Merger. 
 Section 2.6 Establishment of PDC CVR Bank Account. Any amounts paid to the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries in connection with any Partial PDC Sale, any Entire PDC Sale or in connection with any deferred cash consideration with respect thereto shall be held in a segregated bank account at a banking institution reasonably acceptable to
the Shareholder Representative established and maintained for the benefit of the Holders and invested in one or more Qualified Investments until any CVR Payment Amount is required to be paid pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, other than in connection with any payment pursuant to Section 2.4(d), the Company shall not withdraw any amounts from such bank account without the prior written consent of the Shareholder
Representative.

except as expressly set forth herein. No provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent or any Shareholder Representative Person to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. For purposes of this Section 3.1 and Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 7.5 below, the term “Rights Agent” shall include the Rights Agent’s managers, directors, officers,
employees, agents or other representatives in their capacity as such and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Rights Agent shall be liable for breaches of this Agreement by the Rights Agent’s managers, directors, officers, employees, agents or
other representatives.

any of their rights hereunder, including the delivery of a Notice of Objection, statement of Objections and negotiation. The Shareholder Representative shall be under no obligation to institute any action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any
other action likely to involve material expense. All rights of action under this Agreement may be (and shall only be) enforced by the Shareholder Representative, and any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Shareholder Representative shall

Section 3.2 Certain Rights of Rights Agent. 

The Rights Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied
duties, covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Rights Agent. In addition: 
 (a) the Rights Agent may rely
in good faith upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties; 
 (b) (i) whenever the Rights Agent shall reasonably require that a matter be established or proved by the Company prior
to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, the Rights Agent may request and rely upon a certificate signed by the chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, any vice president, the controller, the treasurer or
the secretary of the Company on behalf of the Company, which certificate shall be, if signed by the party or parties required to consent to such action, full authorization and protection to the Rights Agent, and the Rights Agent shall, in the
absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) on its part, incur no liability, and shall be protected and be held harmless by the Company,
for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate; and (ii) whenever the Rights Agent shall reasonably require that a matter be established or
proved by the Shareholder Representative prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, the Rights Agent may request and rely upon a certificate signed by each then current individual member of

  
 19 

 
the committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative on behalf of the Shareholder Representative, which certificate shall be, if signed by the party or parties required to
consent to such action, full authorization and protection to the Rights Agent, and the Rights Agent shall, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction) on its part, incur no liability, and shall be protected and be held harmless by the Company, for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon
such certificate; 
 (c) the Rights Agent may engage and consult with counsel of its selection (who may be legal counsel for the Rights
Agent or an employee of the Rights Agent) and the written advice of such counsel or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in
good faith and in reliance thereon; 
 (d) the permissive rights of the Rights Agent to do things enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty; 
 (e) the Rights Agent shall not be required to give any note or surety in respect of the execution of such powers or
otherwise in respect of the premises; 
 (f) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Rights Agent shall have no liability and
shall be held harmless by the Company in respect of the validity of this Agreement, the statements of fact or recitals contained herein (or be required to verify the same), or the execution and delivery hereof (except the due execution and delivery
hereof by the Rights Agent and the enforceability of this Agreement against the Rights Agent assuming the due execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company or any other party of
any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement nor shall the Rights Agent be responsible for, nor chargeable with, knowledge of, nor have any requirements to comply with, the terms and conditions of any other agreement, instrument or
document, including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement, nor shall the Rights Agent be required to determine if any person or entity has complied with any such agreements, instruments or documents, nor shall any additional obligations of the
Rights Agent be inferred from the terms of such agreements, instruments or documents even though reference thereto may be made in this Agreement; 

(g) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Rights Agent shall in no event be liable for special, punitive or
unforeseeable consequential damages (unless such damages are to third parties with respect to third party claims that result in a judgment against the Rights Agent for such damages), and (ii) any liability of the Rights Agent, including, but
not limited to, foreseeable consequential damages, shall be limited to the amount of fees paid by the Company to the Rights Agent (excluding amounts paid to the Rights Agent as reimbursement for expenses and other charges); 

(h) the Rights Agent and any of its affiliates may buy, sell or deal in any securities of the Company or the Ultimate Parent or become
peculiarly interested in any transaction in which the Ultimate Parent or the Company may be interested, or contract with or 

  
 20 

 
lend money to the Ultimate Parent or the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not the Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent
from acting in any other capacity for the Ultimate Parent or the Company or for any other Person; and 
 (i) the Rights Agent may execute
and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself (through its directors, officers and employees) or by or through its attorneys or agents; provided, that the Rights Agent shall be liable
for breaches of this Agreement by such directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents. 
 Section 3.3 Indemnity and
Expenses. 
 (a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Shareholder Representative Person and the Rights Agent
for, and to hold each Shareholder Representative Person and the Rights Agent harmless against, any loss, liability, judgment, fine, penalty, claim, demand, suit, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the
reasonable costs and expenses of legal counsel) arising out of or in connection with the Rights Agent’s and the Shareholder Representative’s respective duties under this Agreement, including the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
of defending the Rights Agent and each individual member of the Committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative against any claims, charges, demands, investigations, suits or loss or liability, or enforcement of its rights
hereunder, unless it shall have been finally determined by a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be a direct result of the Rights Agent’s or such Shareholder Representative Person’s, as applicable, gross negligence, bad faith
or willful or intentional misconduct. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 3.3(a) shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company for the reasonable expenses incurred by such Person entitled to be
indemnified under this Section 3.3(a) who was, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a claim, charge, demand, investigation or suit in advance of the final disposition thereof and without any determination as to
the Person’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 3.3(a) shall have the
effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to claims, charges, demands, investigations and suits arising prior to any such amendment, modification or repeal. The Shareholder Representative Person’s aggregate liability to any
Person with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the
amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the Shareholder Representative as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses. Indemnification under this Section 3.3(a) shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the
capacity which initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. Any such amounts incurred by the Company in connection with this Section 3.3(a) shall be a PDC Sale Expense. 

(b) The Company or any of its Affiliates shall, if and as requested by the Shareholder Representative at any time from and after the Effective
Time through the termination of this Agreement, pay to or at the direction of the Shareholder Representative fees and expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this

  
 21 

 
Agreement (“Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount”). Subject to the next sentence, the Company or any of its Affiliates shall, if and as requested by the
Shareholder Representative at any time from and after the Effective Time through the termination of this Agreement, transfer to a joint account of the Company and the Shareholder Representative funds in the amount of $25,000,000 less the Shareholder
Representative Reimbursement Amount actually paid through that date for use as directed by the Shareholder Representative (the “Shareholder Representative Expense Amount”) pursuant to this Agreement. If any amounts are
required in excess of $25,000,000 (and, to the extent the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount has been funded, only after such amount has been fully expended), then at the request of the Shareholder Representative from time to time, the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company will promptly pay such additional fees and expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative pursuant to this Agreement and/or pre-fund to such joint account an amount reasonably specified by
the Shareholder Representative in respect of expected expenses in connection with the PDC Sale (including payments to such advisors as the Shareholder Representative may choose to engage in connection with the PDC Sale) and performance of its
obligations and duties hereunder (any such amount, a “Pre-Funded Amount”). Any amounts held in such joint account shall be treated as owned by the Company for all income tax purposes, any interest or other income earned with
respect to such joint account shall be reported as income of the Company for tax purposes and, for the avoidance of doubt, no portion of the Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount, the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or any
Pre-Funded Amount shall be considered income to the Shareholder Representative for tax purposes. The parties hereto will prepare all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing sentence. Any Shareholder Representative Reimbursement Amount
and any amounts (and only such amounts) actually spent from the Shareholder Representative Expense Amount or Pre-Funded Amounts shall be included in the calculation of PDC Sale Expenses hereunder. Any funds from the Shareholder Representative
Expense Amount or Pre-Funded Amounts that remain unused on the earlier of the consummation of the Entire PDC Sale and the Sale Deadline (taking into account the completion of the procedures set forth in Section 2.4) shall be distributed
from the joint account to the Company five (5) Business Days after the payment of the PDC Net Proceeds Per CVR or the Sale Deadline Net Proceeds Per CVR. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company or one of its Affiliates shall pay all PDC Sales
Expenses, including any such PDC Sale Expenses incurred at the direction of the Shareholder Representative, subject to the deduction of such PDC Sale Expenses from the payments to the Holders as is provided for hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, after the completion of an Entire PDC Sale, the Company’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, will be required for any fees or expenses that the Shareholder Representative may wish to incur pursuant to this
Section 3.3(b), to the extent that the aggregate amount of such fees and expenses would exceed the amount of deferred consideration reasonably expected from such Entire PDC Sale. 

(c) The Company agrees, in all events (i) to pay the fees and expenses of the Rights Agent in connection with this Agreement as set forth on
Schedule 3.3(c) hereto and (ii) to reimburse the Rights Agent for all taxes and governmental charges (other than taxes measured by the Rights Agent’s income) and reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and
customary fees and expenses of the Rights Agent’s counsel) paid or incurred by the Rights Agent in connection with the preparation, delivery, amendment, administration and execution of this Agreement and the exercise and performance of its
duties hereunder. Any invoice for any out-of-pocket expenses and per item fees realized will be 

  
 22 

 
rendered and payable by the Company within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company, except for postage and mailing expenses, which funds must be received one (1) Business Day
prior to the scheduled mailing date. For the avoidance of doubt, 50% of such fees, expenses and reimbursements contained in this Section 3.3 shall be PDC Sale Expenses and the remaining 50% of such fees, expenses and reimbursements shall
not be PDC Sale Expenses. 
 Section 3.4 Resignation and Removal of Rights Agent and Shareholder Representative; Appointment of
Successor. 
 (a) The Rights Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company (with a copy to Ultimate
Parent) and the Shareholder Representative specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which notice shall be sent at least thirty (30) days prior to the date so specified. Any individual members of the committee that comprises or
controls the Shareholder Representative may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company (with a copy to Ultimate Parent), the Rights Agent and the Holders specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, which notice
shall be sent at least thirty (30) days prior to the date so specified. 
 (b) If at any time the Rights Agent shall resign, be removed
or become incapable of acting, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a qualified successor Rights Agent reasonably satisfactory to the Shareholder Representative. The successor Rights Agent so appointed shall, upon its
acceptance of such appointment in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), become the successor Rights Agent. 
 (c) If (i) a
successor Rights Agent has not been appointed pursuant to Section 3.4(b) and has not accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the initial Rights Agent delivers notice of its resignation pursuant to
Section 3.4(a) or (ii) at any time the Rights Agent shall become incapable of acting, the incumbent Rights Agent, the Shareholder Representative or the Company may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Rights Agent, if applicable, and the appointment of a successor Rights Agent. 
 (d) If at any time any individual members of the committee
that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, the remaining members of the committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative shall promptly appoint a qualified
successor individual member to such committee. If the individual members of the committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative unanimously determine that a third committee member would be appropriate, then the members of the
committee that comprises or controls the Shareholder Representative shall appoint, upon unanimous agreement, a qualified individual member to such committee. The successor or additional individual member so appointed shall, forthwith upon its
acceptance of such appointment in accordance with this Section 3.4(d), become a successor or additional individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative; provided, that (x) such successor or
additional individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative may not be a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates and (y) the Company agrees to indemnify the Shareholder Representative
for any and all actions taken in connection with this Section 3.4(d). 

  
 23 

 (e) The Company shall give written notice of each resignation and each removal of a Rights Agent
or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative and each appointment of a successor Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative to the then acting members of the
committee comprising the Shareholder Representative or then acting Rights Agent, as applicable, within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by a successor Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder
Representative. If requested, the Rights Agent (or successor Rights Agent) shall mail notice of each resignation and each removal of a Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative and each appointment
of a successor Rights Agent or individual member of the committee comprising the Shareholder Representative to the Holders within ten (10) days after receipt of notice thereof and all necessary information from the Company. Each such notice
provided to the Rights Agent, Shareholder Representative, or Holders shall include the name and address of the successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, as applicable. 

Section 3.5 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

Every successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to
the retiring Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, as applicable, an instrument accepting such appointment and a counterpart of this Agreement, and thereupon such successor Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Rights Agent or Shareholder Representative (as applicable); but, on request of the Company or the successor Rights Agent, such retiring Rights
Agent shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Rights Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Rights Agent.

than loans or advances in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) or make any change in its existing borrowing or lending arrangements for or on behalf of any of such Persons, except as required by the terms of any PDC Benefit
Plan or (B) otherwise make any loans, advances or capital contributions to or investments in any Person outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice (other than any of the PDC Entities); 

(xi) make any change in accounting policies or procedures, other than in the ordinary course of business or as required by GAAP or by a
Governmental Entity; 
 (xii) settle or compromise any material litigation involving amounts in excess of $500,000 individually, or which
settlement or compromise would impose a non-monetary obligation on any of the PDC Entities after the Effective Time that is material to the PDC Entities, taken as a whole; 

(xiii) except as would be consistent with past practice of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, or as would not impact the CVR Payment
Amount, make or change any material tax election, settle or compromise any material liability of any of the PDC Entities for taxes, file any material amendment to a previously filed tax return, agree to an extension or waiver of the statute of
limitations with respect to the assessment or determination of material taxes, enter into any closing agreement with respect to any material tax or surrender any right to claim a material tax refund; or

the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the Company shall, as reasonably requested by the Shareholder Representative, continue to advance one or more Company-PDC Loans to PDC in accordance with the definitive loan documents in respect of the
Company-PDC Loans. All amounts received by PDC in connection with any Partial PDC Sales (excluding the amounts required to pay the PDC Loan Mandatory Prepayment Amount with respect to such Partial PDC Sale) may be used by PDC in the ordinary course
of its business (including, without limitation, the funding of development and redevelopment activity) and any amounts so used or set aside to be used shall not be Partial PDC Net Proceeds. Any decision to use such amounts in the ordinary course of
business, and not as a distribution to Holders, shall be made by the Shareholder Representative. 
 Section 4.2 List of Holders.

 The Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Rights Agent, in such form as the Company receives from the transfer agent of
the Company, or from such other agent performing similar services for the Company, or from the Company’s internal records with regard to Company Options, Restricted Shares, Performance Share Awards, Restricted Stock Units and shares credited in
the “stock credit accounts” to the extent no records from a third party agent are maintained in the ordinary course, the names and addresses of the Holders and the number of CVRs held by each such Holder, within five (5) Business Days
of the Effective Time. 
 Section 4.3 PDC Sale Process. 

(a) From and after the Effective Time until the consummation of the Entire PDC Sale or the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the
Shareholder Representative shall be responsible for conducting the sale process of PDC and shall be empowered to take all actions necessary or advisable in order to consummate a PDC Sale, including retaining advisors in connection with the PDC Sale,
soliciting potential purchasers for the PDC Entities or any of the assets or business of the PDC Entities and determining which purchaser to select, negotiating the terms and conditions of any PDC Sale Agreement, including the purchase price
thereof, and effectuating the consummation of such PDC Sale. The Shareholder Representative shall seek in good faith to complete the sale process of PDC prior to the Sale Deadline, whether as an Entire PDC Sale or as multiple Partial PDC Sales, with
the goal of not having any Unsold Material PDC Assets as at the Sale Deadline. 
 (b) During the period from and after the Effective Time
until the consummation of the Entire PDC Sale or the Sale Deadline, whichever is earlier, the Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or cause to be provided to the Shareholder Representative
all assistance reasonably requested by the 

  
 27 

 
Shareholder Representative in the preparation of the sales process, the negotiation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Entire PDC Sale or any Partial PDC Sale, including the
use of commercially reasonable efforts (i) to provide such information, financial or otherwise, with respect to the PDC Entities or the PDC Business as the Shareholder Representative may reasonably request, to the extent such information is
reasonably available to, or can be reasonably attained by, the Company or any Company Subsidiary, (ii) to assist in the preparation of disclosure schedules, exhibits and ancillary agreements contemplated in the applicable sales agreement
relating to the Entire PDC Sale or any such Partial PDC Sale, to the extent such information is reasonably available to, or can be reasonably attained by, the Company or any Company Subsidiary, and (iii) to assist in obtaining approvals from
Governmental Entities and consents and notices required to be obtained from or made to other Persons under the sales agreement relating to the Entire PDC Sale or any such Partial PDC Sale; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, all
out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses of the Company or its Affiliates in complying with this Section 4.3(b) shall be PDC Sale Expenses, other than Excluded Expenses (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be PDC Sale Expenses).
The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, afford to the Shareholder Representative reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours to the Company’s officers, employees, properties, books, contracts
and records as the Shareholder Representative may reasonably request relating to the PDC Entities; provided, that the Shareholder Representative shall conduct any such activities in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the
business or operations of the Company. 
 (c) The Shareholder Representative shall consult with the Company in the Entire PDC Sale or any
Partial PDC Sale and shall keep the Company and Ultimate Parent reasonably informed on a current basis of the status, details and progress of any negotiations for the Entire PDC Sale or any Partial PDC Sale, including by providing copies of any
marketing or information materials, the prospective purchaser’s financial statements and the current interim drafts of any PDC Sale Agreement, and shall provide reasonable time to the Company and Ultimate Parent for review of such documents.

 (d) In the event a definitive agreement is to be entered into prior to the Sale Deadline with respect to the Entire PDC Sale or one or
more Partial PDC Sales, such agreement shall not, without the consent of the Company (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (i) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary to agree to any material
operating restrictions applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary (other than customary (A) confidentiality and/or employee non-solicitation restrictions that survive for no more than two (2) years from and after the Effective Time, (B)
restrictions relating to the PDC Entities, any of their respective properties or assets, the PDC Business, any portions thereof or the Company’s or any Company Subsidiary’s management, operation or oversight thereof, and (C) restrictions
contained in the PDC Lease Agreement for each of the Contributed Stores), (ii) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary to agree to any recourse applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary in excess of any escrow amount, holdback or
similar amount after the closing of such agreement other than with respect to any customary indemnity obligations for (A) any breaches by the Company or any Company Subsidiaries of (x) its covenants or agreements contained in such agreement or (y)
any customary representations in such agreement relating to organization, qualification, capitalization, title to assets, authority, no conflicts, brokers, taxes, environmental matters or employee benefits or (B)

  
 28 

 
pre-closing taxes relating to the PDC Entities, any of their respective properties or assets, the PDC Business, or any portions thereof, (iii) require the Company or any Company Subsidiary
to retain any material excluded or retained liabilities (other than in connection with the matters described in (ii) above) relating to the securities or assets of any of the PDC Entities being directly or indirectly sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of in connection with such Entire PDC Sale or Partial PDC Sale after the closing of such agreement or (iv) be sold for a price that is payable in consideration other than cash or that, in the good faith judgment of the
Shareholder Representative, would cause the PDC Net Proceeds or the Partial PDC Net Proceeds from such sale agreement to be less than zero. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything in any definitive agreement with respect to the
Entire PDC Sale or any Partial PDC Sale, the Shareholder Representative shall control any third party claims relating to or arising under any such definitive agreement to the extent that any damages claimed thereunder are reasonably likely to be
covered in full by any escrow, holdback or similar amount thereunder, without direct liability of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and any costs, fees or expenses incurred by such Shareholder Representative in connection therewith shall be
included in PDC Sale Expenses. If, in connection with any Entire PDC Sale or Partial PDC Sale which includes employees of PDC, if so requested by the purchaser, the Company shall provide personnel transition services to such purchaser for no more
than six (6) months and at no additional cost to the Company, pursuant to a transition services agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. 

(e) Upon the consummation of the Entire PDC Sale or any Partial PDC Sale, unless otherwise agreed to between the Company and the purchaser
under such PDC Sale Agreement, all intercompany arrangements and obligations between the Company and the PDC Entities will be terminated and the Company shall take all actions necessary or advisable to cause such termination. 

Section 4.4 Books and Records. 

The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to keep true, complete and accurate records in
sufficient detail to enable the Shareholder Representative and its consultants or professional advisors to determine the amounts payable hereunder.

Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if
in writing, sent by overnight courier (providing proof of delivery) or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his, her or its address as it appears in the CVR Register, not later than the latest date, and not
earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect
the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. 

  
 34 

 Section 7.3 Counterparts; Headings. 

This Agreement may be executed in one or several counterparts (whether by facsimile, pdf or otherwise), each of which shall be deemed an
original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties (including by facsimile or other
electronic image scan transmission). The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof. 

Section 7.4 Assignment; Successors. 

(a) Subject to Section 6.1, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be
assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided, that any entity into which the Rights Agent may be merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting
from any merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent shall be a party, or any entity to which the Rights Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets and business, shall be the successor Rights Agent under this
Agreement upon the delivery of notice to the other parties hereto. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by all of the parties and their respective successors and assigns;
provided, that this Agreement may not be enforced directly by any Holder but may only be enforced on behalf of the Holders by the Shareholder Representative. 

Section 7.5 Benefits of Agreement. 

Except as set forth in ARTICLE III with respect to the Shareholder Representative Persons or the Rights Agent, nothing in this
Agreement, is intended to or be deemed to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder. The Shareholder Representative shall be the sole and exclusive
representative of the Holders for all matters in connection with this Agreement and this Agreement may not be enforced directly by any Holder but may only be enforced on behalf of the Holders by the Shareholder Representative. 

  
 35 

 Section 7.6 Governing Law. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to Laws that may be
applicable under conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Other than with respect to disputes
submitted to the Selected Real Estate Appraiser under Section 2.4(c)(i) or a Neutral Auditor under Section 2.4(c)(vi), each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware and any appellate court thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or for recognition or enforcement of any
judgment relating thereto, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding except in such court, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding
may be heard and determined in such Delaware court, (iii) 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 such action or proceeding in such
Delaware court, and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in such Delaware court. Each of the parties 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. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 7.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. 

Section 7.7 Waiver of Jury Trial. 

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT
ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) 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 EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.7. 
 Section 7.8 Remedies. 

  
 36 

 The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the parties hereto
do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge
and agree that prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.10, (a) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof without proof of damages or the posting of any collateral, bond or other security, this being in addition to any other remedy available at law, in equity, under this Agreement or otherwise
and (b) the right of injunctive relief, specific enforcement and other equitable relief is an integral part of this Agreement and transactions related hereto. The parties also agree that the non-prevailing party (as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order) in any litigation relating to the enforcement of this Agreement shall reimburse the prevailing party for all costs incurred by the prevailing party (including reasonable legal fees in
connection with any litigation). To the extent the Shareholder Representative is the non-prevailing party, its reimbursement obligation under this Section 7.8 shall be a PDC Sale Expense. 

Section 7.9 Severability Clause. 

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of
being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable
manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible. 

Section 7.10 Termination. 

This Agreement and each CVR shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and the parties hereto shall have no liability hereunder,
upon (i) the one (1) year anniversary of the later of (a) the payment of all Partial PDC Net Proceeds, PDC Net Proceeds, Sale Deadline Net Proceeds and the payment of all deferred cash consideration pursuant to
Section 2.4(a)(iv), or (b) the Sale Deadline, or (ii) the written agreement of the Company and the Shareholder Representative to terminate this Agreement. Notice of any such termination will be promptly mailed by the Rights
Agent, upon the written request of the Company and the Shareholder Representative and accompanied by the form of such notice, to the Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Section 3.1,
Section 3.2, Section 3.3, and this ARTICLE VII shall survive the termination of this Agreement indefinitely and the resignation, replacement or removal of the Rights Agent. 

Section 7.11 Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, the Merger Agreement, all documents and instruments referenced herein and therein, and all exhibits and schedules attached to
the foregoing, constitute the entire agreement of the parties (other than the Rights Agent) and supersede all other prior 

  
 37 

 
agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. If and to the extent that any provision of this
Agreement is inconsistent or conflicts with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement shall govern and be controlling. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between the Rights Agent, on the one hand, and any other person or entity, on the other hand, this
Agreement alone constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of such parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. 

Section 7.12 Suits for Enforcement. 

In a case where breach has occurred, has not been waived and is continuing, the Shareholder Representative may in its discretion proceed to
protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Agreement by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Shareholder Representative shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights (unless authorization and/or appearance of
each of the Holders is required by applicable Law), either at Law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted in this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Shareholder Representative by this Agreement or by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any liability of any of the
parties hereunder (including the Shareholder Representative) for breach of its obligations under this Agreement shall not (other than in connection with fraud or willful misconduct, or third party claims from third parties arising out of such
party’s breach of this Agreement) include any unforeseeable and remote indirect or consequential damages, or any special or punitive damages. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, any liability of the Company may include the benefit of
the bargain lost by the Holders to the extent proximately caused by such breach (taking into consideration relevant matters, including the total amount payable to such Holders under this Agreement but for such breach, the time value of money, and
any costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Shareholder Representative Persons in connection therewith) which shall be deemed in such event to be damages recoverable by the Shareholder Representative for the benefit of the Holders. With respect to
any party other than the Company, under no circumstances shall such party be liable for monetary damages hereunder.

[Check the appropriate box and initial any applicable substatement] 

 ̈    The CVRs are being transferred as a result of the death of a Holder
by will or intestacy. 
              An official copy of
the death certificate of the Holder and such Holder’s last will and testament and a signed copy of Letters Testamentary, Letters of Administration or equivalent document dated within 60 days are being provided herewith. 

             An official copy of the death certificate of
the Holder is being provided herewith; the Holder has no will and the CVRs are passing via the rules of intestacy. 
  ̈    The CVRs are being transferred by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the CVRs are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustee. The trustee is
the Holder immediately prior to the transfer. Official copies of the death certificates and applicable trust documents authorizing distribution to the named beneficiaries are being provided herewith.

  ̈    The CVRs are being
transferred pursuant to a court order (including a court order issued in connection with divorce, bankruptcy or liquidation). A copy of the court order and, if appointed, evidence of appointment as: Tutor, Guardian, Conservator, Committee, Attorney
or Agent dated within 60 days are being provided herewith. 
  ̈    The
Holder is a corporation and the CVRs are being transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its stockholders. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and
the company has reasonably determined after consultation with counsel that such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the unanimous written consent of the
board of the company or an executed copy of the corporate resolution dated within 180 days authorizing and approving such distribution (and authorizing the signing officer to effect the transaction) and a certificate by or on behalf of the company
stating that that such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act are being provided herewith. Evidence of such Permitted Transferee being a shareholder of the Holder is also
being provided herewith. The corporate resolution, if provided, is not executed solely by the signing officer. 
  ̈    The Holder is a partnership and the CVRs are being transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its partners. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement
of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the current partnership agreement is being provided herewith, together with evidence of the authority of any signatory on behalf of the partnership. 

 ̈    The Holder is a limited liability company and the CVRs are being
transferred pursuant to a distribution by the Holder to its members. Such distribution does not subject the CVRs to a requirement of registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. A copy of the operating agreement is being provided
herewith, together with an executed copy of the resolution dated within 180 days authorizing the signing managing member/manager to effect the transaction. If the limited liability company has more than one managing member/manager, this resolution
is not executed solely by the signing managing member/manager. 

 ̈    The CVRs are being transferred by a transfer made by operation of law
(including a consolidation, dissolution or merger) or without consideration in connection with the dissolution, liquidation or termination of any corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity. Documents sufficiently evidencing
such activities are being provided herewith, together with, if such transfer by operation of law requires shareholder or board of director or similar approval, an executed copy of the resolution dated within 180 days authorizing the signing officer,
managing member/manager or other signatory to effect the event. If such entity has more than one signing officer, managing member/manager or other signatory, this resolution is not executed solely by the signing officer, managing member/manager
or other signatory.
