MARKETING OF PRODUCTS 

2.1 Marketing Services. 

(a) The Company agrees to assist in marketing Products by serving as a liaison between Aron and potential Customers with respect to term and
spot sales of Products to such Customers in accordance with the terms hereof. The Company agrees to maintain a staff of employees (the “Staff”) at the Refinery or its Houston office (including employees of Affiliates to the extent

shall work cooperatively with each other to generate sales of Products as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 5 

 (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company shall endeavor in a
commercially reasonable manner to arrange for Product sales in such volumes so that, as of the end of each calendar month, the volume of each Product held by Aron in the Product Storage Facilities is as close as reasonably practicable to the Target
Month End Product Volume for such Product. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Aron shall have no obligation to complete
any rack sales hereunder, unless Aron otherwise agrees. 
 2.2 Included Sales Transactions. 

(a) From time to time during the term of this Agreement, the Company may identify potential Customers who wish to enter into Included Sales
Transactions with Aron. The Company may discuss with any such potential Customer the price, quantity, delivery period or periods, product grade and other material terms on which such potential Customer is prepared to agree to a Included Sales
Transaction. The Company shall have no authority to bind Aron to, or enter into on Aron’s behalf, any Included Sales Transaction and shall not represent to any potential Customer that it has such authority. If the Company has negotiated an
offer from a potential Customer to enter into a Included Sales Transaction that complies with the terms and conditions hereof, the Company shall apprise Aron in writing of the terms of such offer and Aron shall promptly determine and advise the
Company as to whether Aron desires to accept such offer. For each such offer presented to Aron, (i) the Company shall prepare and provide to Aron a trade ticket listing the proposed Customer, price, quantity, delivery period(s), product grade
and other material terms of such offer in the form prescribed in the Scheduling and Communications Protocol and (ii) the Company and Aron shall agree to a fee per Barrel (“Product Sales Fee”) that shall be due from the Company
to Aron with respect to each Barrel sold under the proposed Included Sales Transaction if entered into by Aron and such potential Customer. Aron shall not be obligated to consider a proposed Included Sales Transaction unless the Parties have agreed
to the Product Sales Fee with respect thereto. The payment of such Product Sales Fee shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.6 of the Supply and Offtake Agreement. 

(b) If Aron desires to accept any such offer, then Aron shall endeavor to promptly communicate its formal acceptance of such offer directly to
the potential Customer so that Aron may establish a binding agreement between Aron and such potential Customer. If a binding agreement is so established to Aron’s satisfaction, then Aron will seek to finalize and confirm such Included Sales
Transaction using its ordinary documentation and confirmation procedures. If such a Included Sales Transaction is entered into by Aron, the definitive terms and conditions thereof shall be exclusively those terms and conditions agreed to by Aron,
without regard to any terms and conditions previously discussed between the Company and such Customer; provided, however, that in the event the pricing terms agreed by Aron differ from those negotiated by the Company and offered to Aron, Aron will
utilize the price negotiated by the Company and offered to it for purposes of calculating the Aggregate Sale Receipts for purposes of computing the Monthly Product Sale Adjustment. If Aron enters into an Included

  
 6 

 
Sales Transaction it shall promptly confirm this to the Company by sending to the Company an email confirmation notifying the Company that a transaction has been executed on the basis of the
relevant trade ticket. In addition, if the relevant Customer has consented to Aron sharing copies of the agreement underlying the Included Sales Transaction with the Company, then Aron shall provide a copy thereof to the Company. 

(c) Aron may, in its discretion, acting in good faith, elect to reject any such offer to enter into an Included Sales Transaction. Aron’s
decision to reject any such offer shall be based on such factors and considerations as Aron deems relevant, which may include (without limitation) the proposed commercial terms, credit considerations (including credit quality and credit limits),
reputational considerations, prior or current interactions between Aron and the proposed Customer, proposed title transfer points and modes of transportation, the presence or absence of trading documentation between Aron and the proposed Customer,
the presence or absence of a pre-existing trading relationship with the proposed Customer or the suitability of the proposed Customer for such transaction. Without limiting the foregoing, any proposed Customer shall be required to (i) satisfy
Aron’s internal requirements and policies as they relate to any applicable “know-your-customer” rules, anti-money laundering policies and procedures, laws, rules and regulations (including without limitation, the Patriot Act and rules
and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control) and other similar client identification and business conduct standards and dealing policies and procedures (including reputational considerations) and (ii) have provided to Aron all
material documentation and other information required by such policies and procedure and applicable regulatory authorities. Aron reserves the right to accept or reject any potential transaction with such counterparty in accordance with this
Section 2.2(c) provided that, Aron shall not refuse to trade with any counterparty based solely on the fact that such trade was presented to it by the Company hereunder where, at such time, Aron would otherwise have traded with such
counterparty on such terms and under all other applicable policies and limitations. 
 2.3 Included Purchase Transactions. 

(a) From time to time, based on the Company’s estimates of the Refinery’s expected Product yields and the volume requirements of the
Company’s Product Marketing Operations, the Company may propose that Aron enter into an Included Purchase Transaction with an identified Product Supplier. The Company may discuss with any such potential Product Supplier the price, quantity,
delivery period or periods, product grade and other material terms on which such potential Product Supplier is prepared to agree to an Included Purchase Transaction. The Company shall have no authority to bind Aron to, or enter into on Aron’s
behalf, any Included Purchase Transaction and shall not represent to any potential Product Supplier that it has such authority. If the Company has negotiated an offer from a potential Product Supplier to enter into an Included Purchase Transaction
that complies with the terms and conditions hereof, the Company shall apprise Aron in writing of the terms of such offer and Aron shall promptly determine and advise the Company as to whether Aron desires to accept such offer. For each such offer
presented to Aron, (i) the Company shall prepare and provide to Aron a trade ticket listing the proposed Product Supplier, price, quantity, delivery period(s), product grade and other material terms of such offer in the form prescribed in the
Scheduling and Communications Protocol and (ii) the Company and Aron shall agree to a fee per Barrel (“Product Procurement Fee”) that shall be due from the Company to Aron with respect to each

  
 7 

 
Barrel purchased under the proposed Included Purchase Transaction if entered into by Aron and such potential Product Supplier. Aron shall not be obligated to consider a proposed Included Purchase
Transaction unless the Parties have agreed to the Product Procurement Fee with respect thereto. The payment of such Product Procurement Fee shall be determined in accordance with Section 8.8 of the Supply and Offtake Agreement. 

(b) If Aron desires to accept any such offer, then Aron shall endeavor to promptly communicate its formal acceptance of such offer directly to
the potential Product Supplier so that Aron may establish a binding agreement between Aron and such potential Product Supplier. If a binding agreement is so established to Aron’s satisfaction, then Aron will seek to finalize and confirm such
Included Purchase Transaction using its ordinary documentation and confirmation procedures. If such an Included Purchase Transaction is entered into by Aron, the definitive terms and conditions thereof shall be exclusively those terms and conditions
agreed to by Aron, without regard to any terms and conditions previously discussed between the Company and such Product Supplier, provided, however, that in the event the pricing terms agreed by Aron differ from those negotiated by the Company and
offered to Aron, Aron will utilize the price negotiated by the Company and offered to it for purposes of calculating the Aggregate Purchase Proceeds for purposes of computing the Monthly Product Purchase Adjustment. If Aron enters into an Included
Purchase Transaction it shall promptly confirm this to the Company by sending to the Company an email confirmation notifying the Company that a transaction has been executed on the basis of the relevant trade ticket. In addition, if the relevant
Customer has consented to Aron sharing copies of the agreement underlying the Included Purchase Transaction with the Company, then Aron shall provide a copy thereof to the Company. 

(c) Aron may, in its discretion, acting in good faith, elect to reject any such offer to enter into an Included Purchase Transaction.
Aron’s decision to reject any such offer shall be based on such factors and considerations as Aron deems relevant, which may include (without limitation) the proposed commercial terms, credit considerations (including credit quality and credit
limits), reputational considerations, prior or current interactions between Aron and the proposed Product Supplier, proposed title transfer points and modes of transportation, the presence or absence of trading documentation between Aron and the
proposed Product Supplier, the presence or absence of a pre-existing trading relationship with the proposed Product Supplier or the suitability of the proposed Product Supplier for such transaction. Without limiting the foregoing, any proposed
Product Supplier shall be required to (i) satisfy Aron’s internal requirements and policies as they relate to any applicable “know-your-customer” rules, anti-money laundering policies and procedures, laws, rules and regulations
(including without limitation, the Patriot Act and rules and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control) and other similar client identification and business conduct standards and dealing policies and procedures (including reputational
considerations) and (ii) have provided to Aron all material documentation and other information required by such policies and procedure and applicable regulatory authorities. Aron reserves the right to accept or reject any potential transaction
with such counterparty in accordance with this Section 2.3(c); provided that, Aron shall not refuse to trade with any counterparty based solely on the fact that such trade was presented to it by the Company hereunder where, at such time,
Aron would otherwise have traded with such counterparty on such terms and under all other applicable policies and limitations. 

  
 8 

 (d) If Aron acquires any Product under an Included Purchase Transaction, such Product shall be
subject to further resale under Included Sales Transactions and/or Company Purchase Agreements to the same extent as any Product acquired by Aron under the Supply and Offtake Agreement. 

2.4 Volume Reporting. The Company agrees that it will not propose, and Aron will not be requested or obligated to enter into, any
Included Transactions until the Company has established, to Aron’s reasonable satisfaction, procedures and mechanisms for determining and reporting the specific volumes that are from time to time subject to each such Included Transaction. 

2.5 Additional Transaction Terms and Guidelines. 

(a) When identifying any potential Included Sales Transaction or Included Purchase Transaction, the Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to comply with any guidelines that Aron may from time to time provide to the Company, in writing, to be observed by the Company in seeking to identify such transactions. 

(b) No term of any Included Sales Transaction or Included Purchase Transaction shall require or contemplate that Aron shall hold title to any
Product subject thereto while such Product is being transported by any waterborne mode of transportation. 
 2.6 Sales to the Company.

 (a) The Company and certain of its Affiliates (each, a “Company Purchaser”) intend to purchase Product from Aron for
purposes of the Company’s Product Marketing Operations. In addition, in the event that Aron elects not to enter into a Included Sales Transaction with a Customer that the Company has proposed to Aron pursuant to Section 2.2, and at
such time the Company has reasonably determined that Product sales are being made at an insufficient rate to permit the Refinery to continue its ordinary commercial operations, then a Company Purchaser may, at its election, enter into an agreement
with such proposed Customer for the sale of Product and the Company Purchaser shall be permitted to purchase Product from Aron necessary to supply such proposed Customer at a price equal to the Current Month Pricing Benchmark. 

(b) If, in Aron’s judgment, any proposed sale to a Company Purchaser under Section 2.6(a) involves a bulk quantity, taking
into account the quantities generally subject to transactions being entered into by Company Purchasers under Section 2.6(a), then Aron may require that such bulk quantity transaction be separately confirmed and settled between Aron and
such Company Purchaser. Any such separately confirmed and settled transaction shall be a “Company Purchase Agreement” hereunder. Aron shall have the right to require that a Company Purchaser provide Aron with documentation and other
diligence before entering into any such Company Purchase Agreement. 
 (c) The parties acknowledge and agree that the purchase price payable
by the Company Purchaser to Aron under a Company Purchase Agreement shall be the purchase price specified in the confirmation for such transaction. 

  
 9 

 (d) The purchase price for any Product delivered to or lifted by the Company that is not subject
to a Company Purchase Agreement shall be at a price equal to the Current Month Pricing Benchmark. 
 (e) The Company shall be permitted to
purchase Product from Aron to the extent necessary to meet its obligations for the Company’s Product Marketing Operations. 
 (f) The
Parties acknowledge that, for any Product that a Company Purchaser buys from Aron without a Company Purchase Agreement, title to such Product shall pass to such Company Purchaser as such Product leaves the relevant outlet flange or other delivery
point at which delivery is made to such Company Purchaser, at which point such Company Purchaser may further transfer title to such Product without restriction hereunder. 

2.7 Additional Product Transactions. Aron may, from time to time, propose and agree to sell quantities of Products in transactions and
to third parties not introduced to Aron pursuant to Section 2.2(a) above or executed with Company Purchasers under Section 2.6(a) (each, an “Additional Product Transaction”); provided that Aron shall not
enter into any Additional Product Transaction (i) without providing the Company prior notification of Aron’s desire to enter into such proposed transaction together with the volumes, delivery schedule and location and other material
non-economics terms of such proposed transaction and, to the extent it is permitted subject to any confidentiality constraints, the identity of the purchaser thereunder, (ii) if entering into such proposed transaction would impair Aron’s
ability to satisfy its obligations under then outstanding Included Sales Transactions and Company Purchase Agreements and such other such Included Sales Transactions and Company Purchase Agreements that the Company reasonably expects to be executed
or delivered during the immediately following 30 days, or would otherwise result in sales commitments for any particular Products exceeding the quantity of such Product expected to be available for delivery at any point in time, (iii) if, in
the Company’s reasonable judgment, the deliveries contemplated by such proposed transaction would, or would be likely to, result in the volume of Products held by Aron in the Product Storage Facilities at any point in time being less than the
minimum volume of the Operational Volume Range for any relevant Product or (iv) if, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, the fulfillment of such proposed Additional Product Transaction would interfere in any material respect with Refinery
operations or logistics or the Company’s Product Marketing Operations. Aron agrees that it will cooperate and consult with the Company, as the Company reasonably requests, in connection with the Company’s assessment of such proposed
transaction and any determination to be made by the Company as contemplated by the preceding sentence.

Default.

terms of, any such Pledged Collateral Agreement, certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in any way that materially changes the rights of the Company with respect to any such Pledged Collateral in a manner

duplication) attributable to allocations of income and gains, offset by losses and deductions, allocable by the 

  
 25

Par Petroleum to pay Federal and state income taxes at any time shall not exceed the amount of such Federal and state income taxes actually owing by such Member and Par Petroleum at such time for the respective period attributable and after giving
effect to such allocations of income, gains, losses and deductions. The Company shall notify Aron promptly upon making any such Restricted Payment under this Section 5(b)(iii)(B). 

(iv) Permitted Hedging. 

(A) The Company shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any obligation under any Swap Contract relating to Crude Oil and Product,
other feedstocks, other refined petroleum products or other hydrocarbons other than Specified Hedging Agreements that (I) reference Crude Oil or Products (each as defined in the S&O Agreement), (II) are executed at market prices and are
settled based on one or more indices that are highly correlated to the purchase prices and sales prices of the referenced Crude Oil or Products and (III) have a term not exceeding 18 months; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be in breach of this Section 5(b)(iv)(A) by entering into the S&O Agreement and entering into any transactions thereunder or contemplated thereby.

Crack Spread Hedges that would result in the aggregate number of Product barrels (based on the notional volumes of such transactions) scheduled to settle thereunder in any single monthly period, as of any date, exceeding the applicable Maximum
Hedged Capacity. As used herein, “Maximum Hedged Capacity” means, as of any day, on a product-by-product basis, (i) for each of the next 6 calendar months (the “Initial Period”), the aggregate volume of
Products not exceeding 75% of the Refinery’s average monthly projected production volume of Products in such Initial Period, (ii) each of the next 6 calendar months immediately following the Initial Period (the “Second
Period”), the aggregate volume of Products not exceeding 50% of the Refinery’s average monthly projected production volume of Products in such Second Period and (iii) for each of the next 6 calendar months immediately following
the Second Period (the “Third Period”), the aggregate volume of Products not exceeding 25% of the Refinery’s average monthly projected production volume of Products in such Third Period.

(B) Dispositions of inventory in the ordinary course of business;

 26

ordinary course of business so long as any such lease or license does not create a capital lease obligation or Synthetic Lease Obligation except to the extent permitted by Section 5(b)(ii)(E); 

(E) the Company may grant licenses, sublicenses, leases or subleases to other Persons not materially interfering with the conduct of the
business of the Company, in each case so long as no such grant otherwise affects Aron’s security interest in the asset or property subject thereto; 

(F) the Company may liquidate or otherwise dispose of cash equivalents in the ordinary course of business, in each case for cash at fair
market value; 
 (G) the Company may dispose of property and assets to the extent such property and assets were the subject of a casualty
or of condemnation proceedings upon the occurrence of an event that gives rise to the receipt by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any cash insurance proceeds or condemnation awards payable (i) by reason of theft, loss, physical
destruction, damage, taking or any other similar event with respect to any property or assets of the Company or (ii) under any policy of insurance maintained by any of them; 

(H) Dispositions of the Company’s vehicles in the ordinary course of business; and 

(I) Dispositions of property or assets in transactions not otherwise permitted by this Section 5(v) provided the net sale

shared corporate offices space, payroll and other administrative matters (collectively, “Corporate Overhead Expenses”), enter into any transaction, including the purchase, sale or exchange of property or the rendering of any
services, with any Related Party of the Company, or enter into, assume or suffer to exist, or permit any Subsidiary to enter into, assume or suffer to exist, any employment, consulting, management or similar contract with any Related Party of the
Company, except in the ordinary course of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms not less favorable to the Company or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length
transaction with a Person not a Related Party; 
 (C) allocate (or have allocated to it by Par Petroleum) Corporate Overhead Expenses other
than in a fair, equitable, proportionate and consistent manner; 

  
 27 

 (D) make or become obligated to make payment of management or similar fees to Par Petroleum; or

 (E) purchase or otherwise acquire the Equity Interests, assets (constituting a business unit), obligations or other securities of or any
interest in any Affiliate of the Company, or otherwise extend any credit to, guarantee the obligations of or make any additional investments in any Affiliate of the Company. 
  

	 	SECTION 6	Rights to Payment and Pledged Collateral. 

 (a) Collection of Rights to Payment.
Until Aron exercises its rights hereunder to collect Rights to Payment, the Company shall endeavor in the first instance diligently and in the ordinary course of its business to collect all amounts due or to become due on or with respect to the
Rights to Payment. At the request of Aron, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, all remittances received by the Company shall be held in trust for Aron and, in accordance with Aron’s instructions, remitted to
Aron or deposited to an account with Aron in the form received (with any necessary endorsements or instruments of assignment or transfer). 

(b) Pledged Collateral. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred, the Company shall be entitled to receive and retain
for its own account any cash dividend on or other cash distribution or payment, if any, in respect of the Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that, the Company shall not be entitled to receive (i) cash paid, payable or
otherwise distributed in redemption of, or in exchange for or in substitution of, any Pledged Collateral held by the Company, or (ii) dividends and other distributions paid or payable in cash in respect of any such Pledged Collateral in
connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution of any Person whose ownership interests constitute Pledged Collateral or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in-surplus or any other type of
recapitalization involving any such Person. At the request of Aron, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Aron shall be entitled to receive all distributions and payments of any nature with respect to any Pledged
Collateral, and all such distributions or payments held by the Company shall be held in trust for Aron and, in accordance with Aron’s instructions, remitted to Aron or deposited to an account with Aron in the form received (with any necessary
endorsements or instruments of assignment or transfer). Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any such distributions and payments with respect to any Pledged Collateral held in any securities account shall be
held and retained in such securities account, in each case as part of the Collateral hereunder. Additionally, Aron shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, following prior written notice to the
Company, to exercise voting rights and to exercise rights to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Collateral, and to exercise all rights of conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options
pertaining thereto, as if Aron were the absolute owner thereof; provided that Aron shall have no duty to exercise any of the foregoing rights afforded to it and shall not be responsible to the Company or any other Person for any failure to do
so or delay in doing so. 
 (c) Voting Prior to an Event of Default. Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Company shall have the right to vote the Pledged Collateral held 

  
 28 

 
by the Company and to give consents, ratifications and waivers in respect thereof, and shall retain the power to control the direction, management and policies of any Person comprising the
Pledged Collateral to the same extent as the Company would if such Pledged Collateral were not pledged to Aron pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification given or action
taken which would have the effect of materially impairing the position or interest of Aron in respect of such Pledged Collateral or which would alter the voting rights with respect to the stock or other ownership interest in or of any such Person or
be inconsistent with or violate any provision of this Agreement, the S&O Agreement, or any other Transaction Documents. If applicable, the Company shall be deemed the beneficial owner of all such Pledged Collateral for purposes of
Sections 13 and 16 of the Exchange Act and agrees to file all reports required to be filed by beneficial owners of securities thereunder. Aron shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to the Company all such
proxies and other instruments as the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Company to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this subsection (c) and to receive the
distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to this subsection (c). 
 (d) Certain Other
Administrative Matters. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Aron may cause any of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into its name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (subject to the rights of
the Company specified in this Section 6). If available and if otherwise required by this Agreement, Aron shall have the right to exchange uncertificated Pledged Collateral for certificated Pledged Collateral, and to exchange certificated
Pledged Collateral for certificates of larger or smaller denominations, for any purpose consistent with this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7
Authorization; Aron Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Aron shall have the right to, in the name of the Company, or in the name of Aron or otherwise, without notice to or assent by the Company, and the Company hereby constitutes and appoints Aron
(and any of Aron’s officers, employees or agents designated by Aron) as the Company’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority to: 

(a) file any of the financing statements which must be filed to perfect or continue perfected, maintain the priority of or provide notice of
Aron’s security interest in the Collateral; 
 (b) take possession of and endorse any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders
or other forms of payment or security and collect any Proceeds of any Collateral; 
 (c) sign and endorse any invoice or bill of lading
relating to any of the Collateral, warehouse or storage receipts, drafts against customers or other obligors, assignments, notices of assignment, verifications and notices to customers or other obligors; 

(d) notify the U.S. Postal Service or other postal authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to the Company to such
address as Aron may designate and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, establish with any Person lockbox or similar arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment; 

(e) receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to the Company; 

  
 29 

 (f) send requests for verification of Rights to Payment to the customers or other obligors of the
Company; 
 (g) contact, or direct the Company to contact, all account debtors and other obligors on the Rights to Payment and instruct such
account debtors and other obligors to make all payments directly to Aron; 
 (h) assert, adjust, sue for, compromise or release any claims
under any policies of insurance; 
 (i) exercise dominion and control over, and refuse to permit further withdrawals from, Deposit Accounts
maintained with Aron or any other bank, financial institution or other Person; 
 (j) notify each Person maintaining lockbox or similar
arrangements for the payment of the Rights to Payment to remit all amounts representing collections on the Rights to Payment directly to Aron; 

(k) ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all Rights to Payment, enforce payment or any other rights in
respect of the Rights to Payment and other Collateral, grant consents, agree to any amendments, modifications or waivers of the agreements and documents governing the Rights to Payment and other Collateral, and otherwise file any claims, take any
action or institute, defend, settle or adjust any actions, suits or proceedings with respect to the Collateral, as Aron may deem necessary or desirable to maintain, preserve and protect the Collateral, to collect the Collateral or to enforce the
rights of Aron with respect to the Collateral; 
 (l) execute any and all applications, documents, papers and instruments necessary for Aron
to use the Intellectual Property Collateral and grant or issue any exclusive or non-exclusive license or sublicense with respect to any Intellectual Property Collateral; 

(m) execute any and all endorsements, assignments or other documents and instruments necessary to sell, lease, assign, convey or otherwise
transfer title in or dispose of the Collateral; 
 (n) execute and deliver to any securities intermediary or other Person any entitlement
order or other notice, document or instrument which Aron may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Deposit Accounts and Investment Property and Aron’s security interest therein; and 

(o) execute any and all such other documents and instruments, and do any and all acts and things for and on behalf of the Company, which Aron
may deem necessary or advisable to maintain, protect, realize upon and preserve the Collateral and Aron’s security interest therein and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement. 

Aron agrees that, except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it shall not exercise the power of attorney, or any rights
granted to Aron, pursuant to clauses (b) through (n). The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and irrevocable so 

  
 30 

 
long as the Secured Obligations have not been paid and performed in full. The Company hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that Aron shall lawfully and in good faith do or cause
to be done by virtue of and in compliance with this Section 7. 
 SECTION 8 Aron Performance of Company Obligations.
Aron may perform or pay any obligation which the Company has agreed to perform or pay under or in connection with this Agreement, and the Company shall reimburse Aron on demand for any amounts paid by Aron pursuant to this Section 8.

 SECTION 9 Aron’s Duties. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, Aron shall have no duty to exercise
any of the rights, privileges or powers afforded to it and shall not be responsible to the Company or any other Person for any failure to do so or delay in doing so. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of Collateral in
Aron’s possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by Aron hereunder, Aron shall have no duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Collateral. 

SECTION 10 Remedies. 

Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Aron shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies
granted to it in this Agreement, the S&O Agreement, the Master Agreement or any other Transaction Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company agrees that: 
 (i) Aron may peaceably and without notice enter any premises of the Company, take possession of any Collateral,
remove or dispose of all or part of the Collateral on any premises of the Company or elsewhere, or, in the case of Equipment, render it nonfunctional, and otherwise collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Collateral,
and demand, give receipt for, settle, renew, extend, exchange, compromise, adjust, or sue for all or any part of the Collateral, as Aron may determine. 

(ii) Aron may require the Company to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to Aron at any place and time designated
by Aron. 
 (iii) Aron may use or transfer any of the Company’s rights and interests in any Intellectual Property Collateral, by
license, by sublicense (to the extent permitted by an applicable license) or otherwise, on such conditions and in such manner as Aron may determine. 

(iv) Aron may secure the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral or any part thereof (to the extent and in the manner provided by
Applicable Law). 
 (v) Aron may withdraw (or cause to be withdrawn) any and all funds from any Deposit Accounts or securities accounts.

 (vi) Aron may sell, resell, lease, use, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or
following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing (utilizing in connection therewith any of the Company’s assets, 

  
 31 

 
without charge or liability to Aron therefor) at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, for cash or credit or for future
delivery without assumption of any credit risk, all as Aron deems advisable; provided, however, that the Company shall be credited with the net proceeds of sale only when such proceeds are finally collected by Aron. Aron shall have the
right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption the Company
hereby releases, to the extent permitted by law. Aron shall give the Company such notice of any public or private sale as may be required by the UCC or other Applicable Law. The Company recognizes that Aron may be unable to make a public sale of any
or all of the Pledged Collateral, by reason of prohibitions contained in applicable securities laws or otherwise, and expressly agrees that a private sale to a restricted group of purchasers for investment and not with a view to any distribution
thereof shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale. 
 (vii) Aron shall not have any obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the
Collateral for sale. Aron has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Secured Obligations by collecting them from any other Person liable for them and Aron may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the
Secured Obligations, all without affecting Aron’s rights against the Company. The Company waives any right it may have to require Aron to pursue any third Person for any of the Secured Obligations. Aron may comply with any applicable state or
federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Aron may sell the Collateral without giving any
warranties as to the Collateral. Aron may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If Aron sells any of the
Collateral upon credit, the Company will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Aron and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Aron may resell
the Collateral and the Company shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale. 
 (b) License. For the purpose of enabling Aron to
exercise its rights and remedies under this Section 10 or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, to the extent it may do so under applicable agreements, the Company hereby grants to Aron an irrevocable, non-exclusive and assignable
license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to the Company) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property Collateral. 

(c) Proceeds Account. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations may be contingent, unmatured or unliquidated at such time as
there may exist an Event of Default, Aron may, at its election, (i) retain the proceeds of any sale, collection, disposition or other realization upon the Collateral (or any portion thereof) in a special purpose non-interest-bearing
restricted deposit account (the “Proceeds Account”) created and maintained by Aron for such purpose (which shall constitute a Deposit Account included within the Collateral hereunder) until such time as Aron may elect to apply such
proceeds to the Secured Obligations, and the Company agrees that such retention of such proceeds by Aron shall not be deemed strict foreclosure with respect thereto; (ii) in any manner elected by Aron, estimate the liquidated amount of any such
contingent, unmatured or unliquidated claims and apply the proceeds of the Collateral against such amount; 

  
 32 

 
or (iii) otherwise proceed in any manner permitted by Applicable Law. The Company agrees that the Proceeds Account shall be a blocked account and that upon the irrevocable deposit of funds
into the Proceeds Account, the Company shall not have any right of withdrawal with respect to such funds. Accordingly, the Company irrevocably waives until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 23 the right to make
any withdrawal from the Proceeds Account and the right to instruct Aron to honor drafts against the Proceeds Account. 
 (d) Application
of Proceeds. The cash proceeds actually received from the sale or other disposition or collection of the Collateral, and any other amounts received in respect of the Collateral the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein, shall
be applied as provided in Article 19 of the S&O Agreement and Section 6 of the Master Agreement. Any surplus thereof which exists after payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations shall be promptly paid over to the Company or
otherwise disposed of in accordance with the UCC or other Applicable Law. The Company shall remain liable to Aron for any deficiency which exists after any sale or other disposition or collection of Collateral. 

SECTION 11 Certain Waivers. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) any right of redemption with
respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling of the Collateral or other collateral or security for the Secured Obligations; (b) any right to require Aron (i) to proceed against
any Person, (ii) to exhaust any other collateral or security for any of the Secured Obligations, (iii) to pursue any remedy in Aron’s power, or (iv) to make or give any presentments, demands for performance, notices of
nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any of the Collateral; and (c) all claims, damages, and demands against Aron arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or application of the proceeds
of any sale of the Collateral, unless such damages, and claims and demands in respect thereof, are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from Aron’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. 
 SECTION 12 Notices. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in the manner and to the
addresses specified in the S&O Agreement, subject to the terms set forth in Article 24 of the S&O Agreement. Each of the Company and Aron may change its address, facsimile number or email address for notices and other communications
hereunder by notice to the other parties. 
 SECTION 13 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of Aron to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to Aron. 

SECTION 14 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification; Other Charges. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Company agrees to pay: 

(i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Aron and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of
counsel for Aron), and shall pay all 

  
 33 

 
reasonable fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of Aron, in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this
Agreement, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including in connection with the preservation or custody of any
Collateral;
