 PERFECTION;
SUPPLEMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES; 
 USE OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL 

SECTION 3.1. Delivery of Certificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that, subject to
Section 4.01(n) of the Credit Agreement, all certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing the Securities Collateral in existence on the date hereof have been delivered to the Collateral Agent in suitable form for
transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank and that the Collateral Agent has a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest therein (subject to Permitted Liens). Each Pledgor
hereby agrees that all certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral acquired by such Pledgor after the date hereof shall promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof by
such Pledgor) be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto. All certificated Securities Collateral shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to endorse,
assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral, without any indication that such Securities Collateral is subject to the
security interest hereunder. 
 SECTION 3.2. Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and
warrants that the Collateral Agent has a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in all uncertificated Pledged Securities pledged by it hereunder that are in existence on the date hereof. Each
Pledgor hereby agrees that if any issuer of Pledged Securities is organized in a jurisdiction that does not require the use of certificates to evidence equity ownership or any of the Pledged Securities are at any time not evidenced by certificates
of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (i) if reasonably necessary or reasonably desirable to perfect a first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in such
Pledged Securities, cause such pledge to be recorded on the equityholder register or the books of the issuer, cause the issuer to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged Securities, execute any
customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate to complete the pledge and give the Collateral Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Securities under the terms hereof and (ii) after the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, upon request by the Collateral Agent, (A) use commercially

reasonable efforts to cause the Organizational Documents of each such issuer that is a Subsidiary of the Borrower to be amended to provide that such Pledged Securities shall be treated as
“securities” for purposes of the UCC and (B) cause such Pledged Securities to become certificated and delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1 hereof. Each Pledgor hereby agrees
that it shall not elect to treat or permit any of its Subsidiaries to (x) treat its limited liability company membership interests or partnership interests, as the case may be, as securities as contemplated by the definition of
“security” in Section 8-102(15) and by Section 8-103 of Article 8 of UCC or (y) certificate its limited liability company membership interests or partnership interests, as the case may be, unless it is required to do so
pursuant to the terms of the preceding sentence. 
 SECTION 3.3. Financing Statements and Other Filings; Maintenance of Perfected
Security Interest. Subject to Section 3.4, each Pledgor represents and warrants that all filings, registrations and recordings necessary to perfect the security interest granted by each Pledgor to the Collateral Agent in respect of
the Pledged Collateral shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed and, to the extent necessary or appropriate, duly executed form for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 7 to the
Perfection Certificate no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent). Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors,
(i) such Pledgor will maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) and shall defend such security
interest against the claims and demands of all persons, (ii) such Pledgor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Pledged Collateral and such other reports in
connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and (iii) at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor shall promptly and duly
execute and deliver, and file and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and
the rights and powers herein granted, including (x) the filing of any financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect
to the security interest created hereby and (y) the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the
United States Copyright Office) wherever required by applicable Legal Requirements to perfect (to the extent a security interest in such Pledged Collateral may be so perfected under applicable Legal Requirements), continue and maintain a valid,
enforceable, first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder,
as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. 
 SECTION 3.4. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the
attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral, each Pledgor represents and warrants and covenants and agrees as follows, in each
case at such Pledgor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Pledged Collateral: 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 11 

 (a) Instruments. As of the date hereof, no amounts payable under or in connection with any
of the Pledged Collateral are evidenced by any Instrument other than such Instruments listed in Schedule 12 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Instrument listed in Schedule 12 to the Perfection Certificate has been properly
endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank. If any amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any
Instrument, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument not previously delivered to the Collateral Agent exceeds $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument shall promptly (but
in any event within thirty (30) days) (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment
duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written request by such Pledgor, the Collateral Agent shall
promptly return such Instrument to such Pledgor from time to time, to the extent necessary for collection in the ordinary course of such Pledgor’s business. Each Pledgor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not assign or otherwise transfer
for value any promissory notes received at any time in connection with seller financing. 
 (b) Deposit Accounts. Subject to
Section 5.14 of the Credit Agreement, (i) as of the date hereof, no Pledgor has opened nor maintains any Deposit Accounts other than the accounts listed in Schedule 16 to the Perfection Certificate, (ii) no later
than thirty (30) days after the date hereof (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), each applicable Pledgor and the relevant Bank(s) shall have executed and delivered a Deposit Account Control
Agreement with respect to each of the Deposit Accounts listed in Schedule 16 to the Perfection Certificate other than Deposit Accounts having a balance of not more than $100,000, individually and $500,000 in the aggregate and
(iii) no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent shall have a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security
interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in such Deposit Accounts by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Deposit Account unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Collateral Agent notice within thirty
(30) days’ after the establishment of such new Deposit Account with a Bank and (2) such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement (or an amendment to an
existing Deposit Account Control Agreement) with respect to such Deposit Account. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited
to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any withdrawal,
would occur. No Pledgor has granted or shall grant Control of any Deposit Account to any person other than the Collateral Agent. 
 (c)
Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts. (i) Subject to Section 5.14 of the Credit Agreement, (1) as of the date hereof, no Pledgor has opened nor maintains any Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts other than
those listed in Schedule 16 to the Perfection Certificate, (2) no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), each applicable Pledgor
and the 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 12 

 
relevant Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall have executed and delivered a Securities Account Control Agreement or Commodity Account Control Agreement, as applicable, for each
Securities Account or Commodity Account listed in Schedule 16 to the Perfection Certificate, or the Pledgors shall have closed such accounts, (3) no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof (as such period may be
extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent shall have a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (other than Permitted Liens) in such Securities Accounts and Commodity Accounts by Control
and (4) as of the date hereof, no Pledgor holds, owns or has any interest in any certificated securities or uncertificated securities other than those constituting Pledged Securities and those maintained in Securities Accounts or Commodity
Accounts listed on Schedule 16 to the Perfection Certificate or in respect of which the Collateral Agent has Control. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property with a
fair market value, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $500,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days of acquiring such security) (a) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent,
accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or (b) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Control
Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor constituting Investment Property and having a fair market value, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $500,000 are
uncertificated and are issued to such Pledgor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days of acquiring such security (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion
of the Administrative Agent)) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or
other instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such nominee, (b) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with
respect to which the Collateral Agent has Control or (c) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any
Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Collateral Agent notice within thirty (30) days’ after establishment of such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with
such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary and (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such
Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment Property in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and within ten (10) days of actual receipt thereof, deposit any and all
cash and Investment Property received by it into a Deposit Account or Securities Account subject to the Collateral Agent’s Control. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or
instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, would occur. The provisions of this Section 3.4(c) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for
which the Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Collateral Agent. 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT

 (ii) As between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear
the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a Security
Entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the Control of, the Collateral Agent, a Securities Intermediary, a Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person; provided, however, that nothing contained in this
Section 3.4(c) shall release or relieve any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary of its duties and obligations to the Pledgors or any other person under any Control Agreement or under applicable Legal Requirements. Each
Pledgor shall promptly pay all Charges and fees of whatever kind or nature with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities pledged by it under this Agreement. In the event any Pledgor shall fail to make such payment contemplated in
the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent may do so for the account of such Pledgor and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent from all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent under this
Section 3.4(c) in accordance with Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement. 
 (d) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If
any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Pledgor, other than a Letter of Credit that is a “supporting obligation” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) with respect
to other Pledged Collateral in which the Collateral Agent has a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens), such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days of becoming a
beneficiary thereunder) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer or other nominated person of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or
(ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in
the Credit Agreement. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other Letters of Credit for which the actions described above in
clauses (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 
 (e)
Commercial Tort Claims. As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims other than those listed in Schedule 15 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any
time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in
the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of
such Commercial Tort Claim, together with the amount of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in which the Collateral Agent does not have a security interest, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

 SECTION 3.5. Joinder of Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause
each Subsidiary of the Borrower which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver to
the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 2 hereto and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within thirty (30) days (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of
the Administrative Agent) of the date on which it was acquired or created, as applicable, and upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder
with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each
Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the
Collateral Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect,
preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity,
enforceability and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral, including
the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby and the execution and
delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) wherever required by Legal Requirements
to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, as against
third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable
request by the Collateral Agent such schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or
instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the
Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in in the Pledged Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and
expense of the Pledgors.

AGREEMENT

 ARTICLE IV 

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 

Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants as follows: 

SECTION 4.1. Title. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns or has rights and, as to Pledged Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will own or have rights in each item of Pledged Collateral pledged by it
hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. In addition, no Liens or claims exist on the Securities Collateral, other than as permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement and any rights or obligations set
forth in the Organizational Documents for any Pledged Securities issued by a Joint Venture. 
 SECTION 4.2. Validity of Security
Interest. The security interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Pledged Collateral
securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, and (b) subject to the filings and other actions described in Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the schedules to the
Perfection Certificate as of the date this representation is made or deemed made), a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security interest (other than Permitted Liens) in all the Pledged Collateral. Each such filing and action shall be made
or taken or shall be caused to be made or taken by the Borrower promptly following the Closing Date. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on
the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a valid, enforceable, perfected, continuing first priority security interest therein, prior to all other Liens on the Pledged Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens. 

SECTION 4.3. Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend
title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof required hereunder against all claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and
expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Permitted Liens. There is no agreement, order, judgment or decree that restricts the transferability of any of the Pledged
Collateral or otherwise impairs or conflicts with any Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, and no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement or take any other action, that would restrict the transferability of any
of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise impair or conflict with any Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. 

SECTION 4.4. Other Financing Statements. No Pledgor has filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor will there be), any
valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral, except such as have been
filed in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to such Permitted Lien or financing 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT

statements and other statements and instruments or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 9(a) to the Perfection Certificate. So long as any of the
Secured Obligations remain unpaid and unperformed, no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any
jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor to the Collateral Agent pursuant to
this Agreement or the holder(s) of the Permitted Liens. 
 SECTION 4.5. Chief Executive Office; Change of Name; Jurisdiction of
Organization, etc. Such Pledgor shall, (i) unless it shall have given the Collateral Agent not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate), not change its name, identity, legal
structure (whether by merger, consolidation, change in corporate form or otherwise), type of organization or jurisdiction of organization, place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or mailing address or organizational
identification number if it has one and (ii) take all actions necessary or advisable to maintain the continuous validity, perfection and the same or better priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral
granted or intended to be granted hereunder, which in the case of any merger or other change in organizational structure shall include delivering a written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate) upon completion of such merger or other
change in organizational structure confirming the grant of the security interest under this Agreement. If such Pledgor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral
Agent of such organizational identification number. The Collateral Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in this
Section 4.5. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a valid, enforceable, perfected security interest with the priority required hereunder in such Pledgor’s property
constituting Pledged Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such
changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor. 
 SECTION 4.6. Location of Inventory and Equipment. As of the date
hereof, all Equipment having a value in excess of $500,000 and all non-real property Inventory of such Pledgor is located at the chief executive office or such other location listed on Schedule 2(d) to the Perfection Certificate. Within
30 days (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent) of such relocation, such Pledgor shall give the Collateral Agent notice (in the form of an Officer’s Certificate), clearly describing such new location
within the continental United States and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request; provided that in no event shall any Equipment or Inventory be moved to any location other than
one that is listed on Schedule 2(d) to the Perfection Certificate. 
 SECTION 4.7. Corporate Names; Prior
Transactions. Except as set forth in Schedules 1(a), (b) and (c) to the Perfection Certificate, such Pledgor has not, during the past five (5) years, been known by or used any other corporate name or been
a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any person, or acquired any of its property or assets out of the ordinary course of business.

 SECTION 4.8. Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Pledged Securities existing
on the date hereof have been, and to the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable to the extent applicable. As of the
date hereof, there is no amount or other obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Pledged Securities in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Pledged Securities or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of
any issuer of the Pledged Securities. 
 SECTION 4.9. Consents, etc. No consent of any party (including equityholders or
creditors of such Pledgor) and no consent, authorization, approval, license or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or other person is required for the exercise by the Collateral Agent of
(i) the voting or other rights provided for in this Agreement or (ii) the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or
consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or regulatory body or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request
of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor agrees to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

 SECTION 5.1. Pledge of Additional Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, upon obtaining
any Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes of any person (other than Excluded Assets) in an aggregate amount in excess of $500,000, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and promptly (but in any event within thirty
(30) days thereafter) deliver to the Collateral Agent a pledge amendment, duly executed by such Pledgor, in substantially the form of Exhibit 1 hereto (each, a “Pledge Amendment”), and deliver to the Collateral

exercise such rights in any manner that is disadvantageous to any Agent or Lender in any material respect. 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 19 

 (ii) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and to utilize free
and clear of the Lien hereof, any and all Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any and all such Distributions consisting of rights or
interests in the form of Pledged Securities shall be promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof (as such period may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent)) delivered to the Collateral Agent
to hold as Pledged Collateral and shall, if received by any Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Pledgor and be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent as
Pledged Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary or reasonably requested endorsement). 
 (b) So long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed without further action or formality to have granted to each Pledgor all necessary consents relating to voting rights and shall, if necessary, upon written request of
any Pledgor and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, from time to time execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in order to permit such Pledgor
to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof and to receive the Distributions which it is authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii)
hereof.

(i) All rights of each Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise
pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) hereof shall immediately cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights until

is continuing. 
 (ii) All rights of each Pledgor to receive Distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive
and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) hereof shall immediately cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such
Distributions until the applicable Event of Default is no longer continuing, in which case the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Section 5.2(c)(ii) shall cease to be effective, subject to revesting in the event of a subsequent
Event of Default that is continuing. 
 (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall, at
its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to permit the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it
may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(c)(i) hereof and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under Section 5.2(c)(ii) hereof.

same form as so received (with any necessary or reasonably requested endorsement). 
 SECTION 5.3. Organizational Documents. As
of the date hereof, each Pledgor has delivered to the Collateral Agent true, correct, and complete copies of the Organizational Documents of such Pledgor. As of the date hereof, the Organizational Documents of the Pledgors are in full force and
effect, have not as of the date hereof been amended or modified except as disclosed in writing to the Collateral Agent, and there is no existing default by any party thereunder or any event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or
both, would constitute a default under any Organizational Documents. No Pledgor will terminate or agree to terminate any Organizational Documents or make any amendment or modification to any Organization Documents if such termination, agreement to
terminate, amendment or modification could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 5.4. Defaults,
etc. As of the date hereof, (i) no Pledgor is in default in the payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made under any agreement to which such Pledgor is a party relating to the Pledged
Securities pledged by it, and such Pledgor is not in violation of any other provisions of any such agreement to which such Pledgor is a party, or otherwise in default or violation thereunder, (ii) no Securities Collateral pledged by any Pledgor
is subject to any defense, offset or counterclaim, nor have any of the foregoing been asserted or alleged against such Pledgor by any person with respect thereto and (iii) there are no certificates, instruments, documents or other writings
(other than (x) the Organizational Documents of such Pledgor and (y) certificates representing such Pledged Securities that have been delivered to the Collateral Agent) which evidence any Pledged Securities of such Pledgor. 

SECTION 5.5. Certain Agreements of Pledgors as Issuers and Holders of Equity Interests. 

(a) In the case of each Pledgor that is an issuer of Securities Collateral, such Pledgor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
relating to the Securities Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. 
 (b) In the
case of each Pledgor that is a partner, member or holder of any Equity Interests in a partnership, limited liability company or other entity, such Pledgor hereby consents to the extent required by the applicable Organizational Document to the pledge
by each other Pledgor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged Securities in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the transfer of such Pledged
Securities to the Collateral Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner, member or holder of Equity Interests in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all
the rights, powers and duties of a general partner, limited partner, member or holder of Equity Interests, as the case may be.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL 

SECTION 6.1. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of
an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article VIII hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to
the Collateral Agent, to the extent licensable, exercisable solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, an irrevocable, non-exclusive worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation
to such Pledgor) subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of such Trademarks, to use, assign, license, sublicense or otherwise dispose of
the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Intellectual Property License that by its terms is prohibited from being so licensed to the extent constituting Excluded
Assets), wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. 

SECTION 6.2. Registration. Except pursuant to Permitted Liens and licenses entered into by any Pledgor in the ordinary course of

SECTION 6.3. No Violations or Proceedings. On and as of the date hereof, (i) there is no violation, dilution,
misappropriation or infringement by others of any right of such Pledgor with respect to any Copyright, Patent or Trademark listed on Schedules 14(a), (b) and (c) to the Perfection Certificate, respectively,
pledged by it under the name of such Pledgor that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) such Pledgor is not violating, diluting, misappropriating or infringing upon any
Intellectual Property of any other person other than such violation, dilution, misappropriation or infringement that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) no proceedings have
been instituted or are pending against such Pledgor or threatened, and no such claim against such Pledgor has been received by such Pledgor since December 31, 2013 alleging any such violation that, individually or in the aggregate, could

 SECTION 6.4. Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. On a
continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Collateral Agent of (A) any materially adverse determination in any proceeding in the United States Patent
and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office with respect to any material Patent, Trademark or Copyright or (B) the institution of any proceeding or any adverse determination in any federal, state, local or foreign court or

administrative body regarding such Pledgor’s claim of ownership in or right to use any of the Intellectual Property Collateral material to the use and operation of the Pledged Collateral or
any Mortgaged Property, its right to register such Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) in its reasonable business judgment, maintain and protect the Intellectual
Property Collateral material to the use and operation of the Pledged Collateral or any Mortgaged Property as presently used and operated and as contemplated by the Credit Agreement, (iii) in its reasonable business judgment, not permit to lapse
or become abandoned any Intellectual Property Collateral material to the use and operation of the Pledged Collateral or any Mortgaged Property as presently used and operated and as contemplated by the Credit Agreement, and not settle or compromise
any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to such Intellectual Property Collateral without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, (iv) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify
the Collateral Agent in writing of any event that may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of the Intellectual Property Collateral, (v) diligently keep adequate records respecting the Intellectual
Property Collateral and (vi) furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual
Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property Collateral as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 

SECTION 6.5. After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time before the Secured Obligations have been paid and performed
in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations that, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the Security Documents, survive the termination thereof), (i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property
Collateral, (ii) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property
Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, or (iii) file a Statement of Use or an Amendment to Allege Use with respect to any “intent-to-use” Trademark application that, prior to such filing, was an
Excluded Asset, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) with respect to such Pledgor shall automatically constitute
Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party
(excluding any Intellectual Property Collateral that constitutes Excluded Assets). Each Pledgor shall promptly provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest
created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or
statements as shall be reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to create, preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent such
Intellectual Property Collateral may be perfected under applicable Legal Requirements. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate to include any
Intellectual Property Collateral of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date hereof.

 SECTION 6.6. Litigation. Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of
Default, each Pledgor shall, in its reasonable business judgment, have the right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for
protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual
Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral
and/or bring such suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of
the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent for all costs and expenses
incurred by the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.6 in accordance with Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring such suit to
enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, to take all actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair
competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any suit, proceeding or other action against any person so infringing necessary
to prevent such infringement.

SECTION 8.1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may from time
to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies: 

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any
Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged
Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities

 (ii) Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time
payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such
agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided,
however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later
than three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 
 (iii) Sell, assign,
grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take
possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 
 (iv) Take possession of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith
cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending
further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good
condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 8.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 
 (v) Withdraw all moneys,
instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

(vi) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article IX hereof;

 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 25 

 (viii) Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the
UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Pledged Collateral), and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 8.2 hereof, sell, assign, transfer or grant a license to use
the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such
price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such
sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient
at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, all rights
of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Legal Requirements now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any
part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at
the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer
such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 
 SECTION 8.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to
the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by any Legal Requirement, ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time
after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters unless the Pledged Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right
to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 
 SECTION 8.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling.

 (a) Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, notice or judicial hearing in connection
with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 26 

 
such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under any Legal Requirements, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements:
(i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and
(iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Legal Requirements. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant
to this Article VIII except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any sale of, or the grant of
options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar
both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. 

(b) Each Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Credit Extensions, Pledged Collateral
received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description. 
 (c) The
Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Pledged Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or
other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Legal Requirement relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby
irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Legal Requirements. 
 SECTION 8.4. Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To
the extent that applicable Legal Requirements impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent
(i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Pledged Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products
for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Pledged Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other Legal Requirements, to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third
parties for the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral or to fail to remove liens or
encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Pledged Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Pledged Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other
collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Pledged Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Pledged Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or
not in the same business as any Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Pledged Collateral, whether or
not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 27 

 
dispose of Pledged Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Pledged Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing
so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the
Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Pledged Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed
appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Pledged Collateral. The Pledgors
acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 8.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Legal Requirements of
the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Pledged Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on
account of not being indicated in this Section 8.4. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.4 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent
that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Legal Requirements in the absence of this Section 9.4. 

SECTION 8.5. Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. 

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent may be compelled,
with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable
to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and
that, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and applicable state or foreign securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit
purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that
any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no
obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under
applicable state or foreign securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

 (c) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities
Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral and Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such
information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral
Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect. 

(d) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8.5 will cause irreparable injury
to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this
Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants. 

SECTION 8.6. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the
Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable Legal Requirements, in equity or otherwise. 
 (b) In the event that the
Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights
hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 

SECTION 8.7. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Intellectual Property Collateral or such other documents as are necessary or
appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof; provided, however, that if the Event of Default is no longer continuing, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to each Pledgor such reassignments or other
documents necessary to place such Pledgors in control and ownership of such Intellectual Property Collateral.

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

accordance with the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE X 

MISCELLANEOUS 

SECTION 10.1. Concerning Collateral Agent. 

(a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder
are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including the
release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the
Pledged Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may
resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. 

(b) Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys
actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral. The
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral
Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests; provided that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers,
employees or agents shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 30 

 
taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, (ii) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or part of the Pledged Collateral or for any delay in doing so or (iii) failing to take any necessary steps to preserve rights
against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice,
statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its
duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. 
 (d) The Collateral Agent may rely on advice of counsel as to whether any or all
UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in Section 5.11(a) of the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Collateral Agent about such changes on
a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Collateral Agent needed to
have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be
feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor. 

SECTION 10.2. Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any
covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or
(v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the
same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other
obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be
paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 10.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 10.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument
consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall
have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor
hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT

 SECTION 10.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a
continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the
benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit
with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Secured Party that is a party to a Permitted
Hedging Agreement, such Permitted Hedging Agreement. Each of the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment, or
any part thereof, of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise. 

SECTION 10.4. Termination; Release; Reinstatement. This Agreement shall terminate and the Pledged Collateral shall be released
from the Lien of this Agreement when the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full.
Upon termination hereof, the security interests granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the applicable Pledgor or to such other person as may be entitled thereto pursuant to any Order or other
applicable Legal Requirements. Upon termination hereof or any release of Pledged Collateral in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall promptly, upon the written request and at the sole cost and expense of
the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgors, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except that the Collateral Agent has not assigned or otherwise transferred its security interest in the Pledged
Collateral, such of the Pledged Collateral to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession or control of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to
any other Pledged Collateral, with such endorsements or proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be. Each
Pledgor agrees that, if any payment made by any Loan Party or other Person and applied to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to
be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Loan Party, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Pledgor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law,
common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of
the foregoing, any Lien or other Collateral securing such Pledgor’s liability hereunder shall have 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 32 

 
been released or terminated by virtue of the foregoing, such Lien, other Collateral or provision shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or
surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Pledgor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment. 

SECTION 10.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision
hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment,
modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 SECTION 10.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein
or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the
Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other
party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 10.6. 
 SECTION 10.7. Governing Law, Consent to
Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. 

(b) EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME
COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN

OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR 

  
 PLEDGE AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT 

  
 33 

 
PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR
OTHERWISE SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE COLLATERAL AGENT, ANY OTHER AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR OTHER SECURED PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR OR ITS
PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 
 (c) EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY
LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN
SECTION 10.7(b). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 

(d) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT, IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES (OTHER THAN TELECOPY) IN SECTION 10.6. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED
BY APPLICABLE LAW. 
 (e) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY

WAIVER AND (b) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.7. 

SECTION 10.8. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 SECTION 10.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers,
consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

made on such other day. 
 SECTION 10.11. Waiver of Stay. Each Pledgor covenants that in the event that such Pledgor or any
property or assets of such Pledgor shall hereafter become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or such Pledgor shall otherwise be a party to any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar
proceeding to which the provisions relating to the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any such Legal Requirement is applicable, then, in any such case, whether or not the Collateral Agent has
commenced foreclosure proceedings under this Agreement, such Pledgor shall not, and each Pledgor hereby expressly waives its right to (to the extent it may lawfully do so) at any time insist upon, plead or in any whatsoever, claim or take the
benefit or advantage of any such automatic stay or such similar provision as it relates to the exercise of any of the rights and remedies (including any foreclosure proceedings) available to the Collateral Agent as provided in this Agreement, in any
other Security Document or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations. Each Pledgor further covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted herein to the Collateral Agent, but will suffer and permit

or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such

Amendment of Exhibits. The exhibits to the Rights Agreement shall be deemed to be restated to reflect this Amendment, including all conforming changes. 

 4. Other Amendments; Effect of Amendment. Except as and to the extent expressly modified
by this Amendment, the Rights Agreement and the exhibits thereto remain in full force and effect in all respects without any modification. This Amendment will be deemed an amendment to the Rights Agreement and will become effective on the date
hereof. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between this Amendment and the Rights Agreement and the exhibits thereto, the provisions of this Amendment will govern. 

5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and each of such counterparts will for all purposes be
deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts will together constitute one and the same instrument, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. A signature to this Amendment transmitted electronically (including by
fax and .pdf) will have the same authority, effect and enforceability as an original signature. No party hereto may raise the use of such electronic transmission to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was
transmitted or communicated through such electronic transmission, as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity. 

6. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or
other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Amendment will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. 

7. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the sections of this Amendment are inserted for convenience only and will not
control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. 
 8. Further Assurances. Each of the parties to this
Amendment will cooperate and take such action as may be reasonably requested by the other party in order to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Amendment, the Rights Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder.

 9. Governing Law. This Amendment will be deemed to be a contract made pursuant to the laws of the State of California and for all
purposes will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State; provided, however, that all provisions regarding the rights, duties and
obligations of the Rights Agent will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State.
