Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest (“Security Interest”) in all of such Pledgor’s right, title
and interest in the following, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or existing (collectively, the “Collateral”) as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations: 
 (a) the Pledged Shares held by such
Pledgor and the certificates representing such Pledged Shares and any interest of such Pledgor in the entries on the books of the issuer of the Pledged Shares or any financial intermediary pertaining to the Pledged Shares and all dividends, cash,
warrants, rights, instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Pledged Shares; 
 (b) the Pledged Debt and the instruments evidencing the Pledged Debt owed to such Pledgor, and all interest, cash,
instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such Pledged Debt; and

 As used herein, the term “Excluded Assets” shall mean (i) Capital Stock of a Person that constitutes a Subsidiary (other than
a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary) the pledge of which would violate a contractual obligation to the owners of the other Capital Stock of such Person that is binding on or relating to such Capital Stock, (ii) any Voting Stock representing in excess of
65% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock in any Foreign Subsidiary and (iii) any Equity Interests and other securities of a Subsidiary to the extent that the pledge of such Equity Interests and other securities results in the Issuer being

that Excluded Assets will not include (a) any proceeds, substitutions or replacements of any Excluded Assets referred to above (unless such proceeds, substitutions or replacements would constitute Excluded Assets) or (b) any asset which
secures Senior Credit Facilities Debt. 
 3. Security for Obligations. This Pledge Agreement secures the payment and
performance of all of the Secured Obligations of each Pledgor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Pledge Agreement secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by any of the
Pledgors to the Notes Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties under the Note Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Pledgor.

 4. Delivery of the Collateral. All certificates or instruments, if any, representing or evidencing the Collateral
shall be promptly delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank.
The Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and without notice to any Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Notes Collateral Agent or any of
its nominees any or all of the Pledged Shares. Each delivery of Collateral (including any After-acquired Shares) shall be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities theretofore and then being pledged hereunder, which shall be attached
hereto as Schedule 2 and made a part hereof, provided that the failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supersede any prior schedules so delivered.

and holder, date of and maturity date of all Pledged Debt and (ii) together with the comparable schedule to each supplement hereto, includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged hereunder. Except as

outstanding Equity Interests of each class of Equity Interests in the issuer on the date hereof. 
 (b) Such
Pledgor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral pledged or assigned by such Pledgor hereunder free and clear of any Lien, except for Permitted Liens. 
 (c) The Pledged Shares pledged by such Pledgor hereunder have been duly authorized and validly issued and, in the case of
Pledged Shares issued by a corporation, are fully paid and non-assessable. 
 (d) The execution and delivery by
such Pledgor of this Pledge Agreement and the pledge of the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder pursuant hereto create a valid enforceable security interest in such Collateral (provided that with respect to the Equity Interests of any
Foreign Subsidiary, such security interest shall be valid and enforceable solely to the extent the creation of such security interests in such Equity Interests may be governed by the NY UCC) and upon the filing of financing statements in the
applicable filing offices and delivery of any certificates and instruments representing or evidencing such Collateral to the Notes Collateral Agent, shall constitute a fully perfected first-priority security interest in the Collateral, securing the
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (provided that with respect to the Equity Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary, such security interest shall be valid
and enforceable solely to the extent the creation and perfection of such security interests in such Equity Interests may be governed by the UCC), except as enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. 
 (e) Such Pledgor has
full power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor (provided that with respect to the Equity Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary, such security interest shall be valid and enforceable solely to the extent the
creation and perfection of such security interests in such Equity Interests is governed by the NY UCC) pursuant to this Pledge Agreement and this Pledge Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Pledgor, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity.

covenants that such Equity Interests (i) are not and shall not be dealt in or traded on securities exchanges or in securities markets, (ii) do not and will not constitute investment company securities, and (iii) are not and will not
be held by such Pledgor in a securities account. None of the agreements or instruments governing any of such limited liability or partnership interests shall provide that such Equity Interests are securities governed by Article 8 of the UCC as in
effect in any relevant jurisdiction. 
 (b) Each Pledgor will cause any Indebtedness for borrowed money in an aggregate
principal amount exceeding $1,000,000 owed to such Pledgor to be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note that is pledged and delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 7. Further Assurances. Each Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of such Pledgor, it will execute
any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents), which
may be required under any applicable law, or which the Notes Collateral Agent or the Required Secured Parties may reasonably request, in order (x) to perfect and protect any pledge, assignment or security interest granted or purported to be
granted hereby (including the priority thereof) or (y) to enable the Notes Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

and interest made or paid in respect of the Collateral to the extent permitted by the Indenture; provided, however, that any and all noncash dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Shares or
Pledged Debt, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Shares or received in exchange for Pledged Shares or Pledged Debt or any part thereof, or in
redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Notes Collateral Agent to hold as,

Pledgor by the Notes Collateral Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, 
  

 -5- 

 (i) all rights of such Pledgor to exercise or refrain from exercising the
voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 8(a)(i) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Notes Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole
right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights during the continuance of such Event of Default, provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Secured Parties, the Notes Collateral Agent shall
have the right from time to time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Pledgors to exercise such rights. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Pledgor will have the right to
exercise the voting and consensual rights that such Pledgor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of Section 8(a)(i) (and the obligations of the Notes Collateral Agent under Section 8(a)(ii) shall be reinstated);

 (ii) all rights of such Pledgor to receive the dividends, distributions and principal and interest payments
that such Pledgor would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 8(b) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Notes Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon have the sole right to receive
and hold as Collateral such dividends, distributions and principal and interest payments during the continuance of such Event of Default, which may be applied to the Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in the Indenture;

to Section 8(c)(i) above, and to receive all dividends, distributions and principal and interest payments that it may be entitled to under Sections 8(c)(ii) and (c)(iii) above, such Pledgor shall, if necessary, upon written notice from the
Notes Collateral Agent, from time to time execute and deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent, appropriate proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as the Notes Collateral Agent may reasonably request. 
 9. Transfers and Other Liens; Additional Collateral; Etc. Each Pledgor shall 
 (a) not (i) except as permitted by the Indenture, sell or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option or warrant with
respect to, any of the Collateral or (ii) create or suffer to exist any consensual Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral, except for Permitted Liens, provided that in the event such Pledgor sells or otherwise disposes of
assets permitted by the Indenture and such assets are or include any of the Collateral, the Notes Collateral Agent shall release such Collateral to such Pledgor free and clear of the Lien under this Pledge Agreement concurrently with the
consummation of such sale; 
 (b) pledge and, if applicable, cause each Subsidiary that becomes a
“Guarantor” under and as defined in the Indenture to pledge, to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, immediately upon acquisition thereof, all the capital stock and all evidence of Indebtedness held or
received by such Pledgor or Subsidiary required to be pledged hereunder, in each case, pursuant to a supplement to this Pledge Agreement substantially in the form of Annex A hereto (it being understood that the execution and delivery of such a
supplement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder and that the rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Subsidiary Pledgor as a party to this
Pledge Agreement); and 
  

 -6- 

 (c) defend its and the Notes Collateral Agent’s title or interest in
and to all the Collateral (and in the proceeds thereof) against any and all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), however arising, and any and all Persons whomsoever. 
 10. Notes Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Pledgor hereby appoints, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, the Notes Collateral Agent as such Pledgor’s
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to take any action and to execute any instrument, in each case after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, that the Notes Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Pledge Agreement, including to receive, indorse and collect all instruments made payable to such Pledgor representing any
dividend, distribution or principal or interest payment in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. 
 11. Notes Collateral Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to
exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or
taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Pledged Shares, whether or not the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such
matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation
of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Notes Collateral Agent accords its own property. 
 12. Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement: 
 (a) the Notes Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided
for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the NY UCC (whether or not the NY UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may without notice except as specified below, sell the
Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange broker’s board or at any of the Notes Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such price or
prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so)
to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers of Collateral to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and, upon
consummation of any such sale, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely
free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or
statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Notes Collateral Agent 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

  

 -7- 

 
of the Collateral so sold, and the Notes Collateral Agent may pay the purchase price by crediting the amount thereof against the Secured Obligations. Each Pledgor agrees that, to the extent
notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Notes Collateral
Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Notes 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. To the extent permitted by law, each Pledgor hereby waives any claim against the Notes Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price
at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Notes Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more
than one offered. 
 (b) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes Collateral Agent shall
apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral at any time after receipt in accordance with Section 6.13 of the Indenture. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Notes Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale
granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Notes Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers
shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Notes Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
 (c) The Notes Collateral Agent may exercise all other rights and remedies available to any Secured Party under the Note
Documents or applicable law. 
 (d) The Notes Collateral Agent may exercise any and all rights and remedies of
each Pledgor in respect of the Collateral. 
 (e) All payments received by any Pledgor after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default in respect of the Collateral shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to
the Notes Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement). 
 Each right, power, and remedy of
the Notes Collateral Agent as provided for in this Pledge Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other
right, power, or remedy provided for in this Pledge Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Notes Collateral Agent, of
any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by any Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. 
 13. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations: Waiver of Rights. Each Pledgor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding
that, without any reservation of rights against any Pledgor and without notice to or further assent by any Pledgor, (a) any demand for payment of any of the Secured Obligations made by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may
be rescinded by such party and any of the Secured Obligations continued, (b) the Secured Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with
respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended,

  

 -8- 

 
increased, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) the Indenture, the other Note Documents and any
other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part and (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Notes Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Secured Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect
or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Secured Obligations or for this Pledge Agreement or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any Pledgor, the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Company or any Pledgor or pledgor, and any failure by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the
Company or any Pledgor or pledgor or any release of the Company or any Pledgor or pledgor shall not relieve any Pledgor in respect of which a demand or collection is not made or any Pledgor not so released of its several obligations or liabilities
hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Pledgor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the
commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
 14. Continuing Security Interest; Assignments Under the Indenture;
Release. (a) This Pledge Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Pledgor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Notes
Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and permitted assigns until all the Secured Obligations under the Note Documents shall have been satisfied by payment in full. In addition, the
security interests granted hereunder shall terminate and be released, in whole or in part, as to Note Obligations under the Indenture, as provided in the Indenture (including Sections 10.06, 12.03 and 12.09 thereof). 
 (b) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (a), the Notes Collateral Agent shall execute and
deliver to any Pledgor, at such Pledgor’s expense, all documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 14 shall be without
recourse to or warranty by the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 15. Reinstatement. This Pledge Agreement shall continue to be
effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Pledgor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any other Pledgor or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made 
 16. Notices. All
notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall, if to the Notes Collateral Agent, Trustee or any Holder be made in accordance with the Indenture (whether or not then in effect). All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Pledgor
shall be given to it in care of the Company at the Company’s address set forth in Section 14.02 of the Indenture. 
 17. Counterparts. This Pledge Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Pledge Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said

 -9- 

 18. Severability. Any provision of this Pledge Agreement that 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, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the
economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 19.
Integration. This Pledge Agreement together with the other Note Documents represents the agreement of each of the Pledgors with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the
Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Note Documents. 
 20. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (a) None of the terms or provisions of this Pledge Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a
written instrument executed by the affected Pledgor and the Notes Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 9.01 or 9.02, as applicable, of the Indenture. 
 (b) Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 20(a) hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to
have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Notes Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Notes Collateral
Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion.

[    ] dated as of [                    ], to the Pledge Agreement dated as of January 29, 2010 (the “Pledge
Agreement”), among ACCELLENT INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), each of the subsidiaries of the Company listed on Annex A thereto (each such undersigned subsidiary being a “Subsidiary Pledgor”
and, collectively, the “Subsidiary Pledgor”; the Subsidiary Pledgors and the Company are referred to collectively, jointly and severally, as the “Pledgors”), and THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON, as notes collateral
agent (in such capacity, the “Notes Collateral Agent”) for the Secured Parties 
 A. Reference is made to the
Indenture, dated as of January 29, 2010 (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, each Guarantor (as defined in the Indenture) and THE BANK OF NEW
YORK MELLON, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and as Notes Collateral Agent on behalf of the holders of the Notes (the “Holders”). 
 B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pledge Agreement. 
 C. The Pledgors have entered into the Security Agreement in order to induce the Trustee and the Notes Collateral Agent to enter into the
Indenture and to induce the Holders to purchase and hold the Notes. 
 D. The undersigned Domestic Subsidiaries (each an
“Additional Pledgor”) are (a) the legal and beneficial owners of the Equity Interests described under Schedule 1 hereto and issued by the entities named therein (such pledged Equity Interests, together with any Equity Interests
obtained in the future of the issuer of such Pledged Shares (the “After-acquired Additional Pledged Shares”), referred to collectively herein as the “Additional Pledged Shares”) and (b) the legal and beneficial
owners of the Indebtedness (the “Additional Pledged Debt”) described under Schedule 1 hereto. 
 E.
Section 9(b) of the Pledge Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Subsidiary Pledgors under the Pledge Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. Each undersigned Additional Pledgor
is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of Section 9(b) of the Pledge Agreement to pledge to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the Additional Pledged Shares and the Additional Pledged
Debt and to become a Subsidiary Pledgor under the Pledge Agreement as consideration for the purchase and holding of Notes by Holders. 
 Accordingly, the Notes Collateral Agent and each undersigned Additional Pledgor agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. In
accordance with Section 9(b) of the Pledge Agreement, each Additional Pledgor by its signature hereby transfers, assigns and pledges to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Notes Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in all of such Additional Pledgor’s right, title and interest in the following, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or existing (collectively, the
“Additional Collateral”) as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations: 
 (a) the Additional Pledged Shares held by such Additional Pledgor and the certificates representing such Additional Pledged Shares and any
interest of such Additional Pledgor in the entries on the books of the issuer of the Additional Pledged Shares or any financial intermediary pertaining to the Additional Pledged Shares and all dividends, cash, warrants, rights, instruments and other
property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Additional Pledged Shares; 

 (b) the Additional Pledged Debt and the instruments evidencing the Additional Pledged Debt
owed to such Additional Pledgor, and all interest, cash, instruments and other property or proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such Additional Pledged Debt; and

 (c) to the extent not covered by clauses (a) and (b) above, respectively, all Proceeds and products of any or all
of the foregoing Additional Collateral. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Additional Collateral” shall not include any Excluded
Assets (as defined below). 
 As used herein, the term “Excluded Assets” shall mean (i) Capital Stock of a Person that
constitutes a Subsidiary (other than a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary) the pledge of which would violate a contractual obligation to the owners of the other Capital Stock of such Person that is binding on or relating to such Capital Stock, (ii) any
Voting Stock representing in excess of 65% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock in any Foreign Subsidiary and (iii) any Equity Interests and other securities of a Subsidiary to the extent that the pledge of such Equity Interests and other
securities results in the Issuer being required to file separate financial statements of such Subsidiary with the SEC pursuant to Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, but only to the extent necessary to not be subject to such
requirement; provided, however, that Excluded Assets will not include (a) any proceeds, substitutions or replacements of any Excluded Assets referred to above (unless such proceeds, substitutions or replacements would constitute Excluded
Assets) or (b) any asset which secures Senior Credit Facilities Debt. 
 For purposes of the Pledge Agreement, (x) the
Collateral shall be deemed to include the Additional Collateral and (y) the After-acquired Pledged Shares shall be deemed to include the After-acquired Additional Pledged Shares. 
 SECTION 2. Each Additional Pledgor by its signature below becomes a Pledgor under the Pledge Agreement with the same force and effect as if
originally named therein as a Pledgor and each Additional Pledgor hereby agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Pledge Agreement applicable to it as a Pledgor thereunder. Each reference to a “Subsidiary Pledgor” or a
“Pledgor” in the Pledge Agreement shall be deemed to include each Additional Pledgor. The Pledge Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
 SECTION 3. Each Additional Pledgor represents and warrants as follows: 
 (a)
Schedule 1 hereto (i) correctly represents as of the date hereof (A) the issuer, the certificate number, the Pledgor and record and beneficial owner, the number and class and the percentage of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of
such class of all Additional Pledged Shares and (B) the issuer, the initial principal amount, the Pledgor and holder, date of and maturity date of all Additional Pledged Debt and (ii) together with Schedule 2 to the Pledge Agreement, the
comparable schedules to each other Supplement to the Pledge Agreement, includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged hereunder. Except as set forth on Schedule 1, the Pledged Shares represent all (or 65
percent in the case of pledges of Foreign Subsidiaries) of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of each class of Equity Interests of the issuer on the date hereof. 
  

 -2- 

 (b) Such Additional Pledgor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Additional Collateral
pledged or assigned by such Additional Pledgor hereunder free and clear of any Lien, except for the Lien created by this Supplement to the Pledge Agreement. 
 (c) As of the date of this Supplement, the Additional Pledged Shares pledged by such Additional Pledgor hereunder have been duly authorized and validly issued and, in the case of Additional Pledged Shares
issued by a corporation, are fully paid and non-ass assessable. 
 (d) The execution and delivery by such Additional Pledgor of
this Supplement and the pledge of the Additional Collateral pledged by such Additional Pledgor hereunder pursuant hereto create a valid and perfected first-priority security interest in the Additional Collateral, securing the payment of the Secured
Obligations, in favor of the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 (e) Such Additional Pledgor has
full power, authority and legal right to pledge all the Additional Collateral pledged by such Additional Pledgor pursuant to this Supplement and this Supplement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Additional Pledgor,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. 
 SECTION 4. This Supplement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Supplement on any number of separate counterparts
(including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Supplement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with
the Notes Collateral Agent and the Company. This Supplement shall become effective as to each Additional Pledgor when the Notes Collateral Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken together, bear the signatures of
such Additional Pledgor and the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Pledge
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 SECTION 6. THE VALIDITY OF THIS SUPPLEMENT, THE CONSTRUCTION,
INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
 
 SECTION 7. Any provision of this Supplement that 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 and in the Pledge Agreement, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  

 -3- 

 SECTION 8. All notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall be made in accordance
with Section 16 of the Pledge Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to each Additional Pledgor shall be given to it in care of the Company at the Company’s address set forth in Section 14.02 of the Indenture (whether or
not then in effect). 
 SECTION 9. Each Additional Pledgor agrees to reimburse the Notes Collateral Agent for its reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 SECTION 10. This Supplement is a Note Document.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clauses (i) through (xvi) above, the security interest created by this Agreement shall not

(each as defined in the Pledge Agreement). 
 (b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Notes Collateral Agent at any
time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and amendments thereto that contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial
Code of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment, including whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to such Grantor. Such
financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner such as “all assets” or “all personal
property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.” Each Grantor agrees to provide such information to the Notes Collateral Agent promptly upon request. 
 Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for the Notes Collateral Agent to file in any relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

 The Notes Collateral Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States

Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral.

performance of the Secured Obligations, whether now existing or arising hereafter. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement secures the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed
by Grantors, or any of them, to the Secured Parties, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable (in whole or in part) as a claim in an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding involving any Grantor due to the existence of such
insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding. 
 It is understood and agreed, except as provided in Section 4.5, that the Security
Interests in cash, Deposit Accounts and Investment Property created hereunder shall not prevent the Grantors from using such assets in the ordinary course of their respective businesses.

Grantor’s Patents, Trademarks, or Copyrights and such perfected Security Interest is enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from any Grantor, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles) and (ii) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral other than Permitted Liens.

jurisdiction outside the United States except as provided in the foregoing clause (ii).

documents reflecting any of the changes described in the first sentence of this paragraph. Each Grantor agrees not to effect or permit any change referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph unless all filings have been made under the Uniform

 10 

 
are required in order for the Notes Collateral Agent to continue at all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all the Collateral having at least
the priority described in subsection 3.2. Each Grantor also agrees promptly to notify the Notes Collateral Agent if any material portion of the Collateral is damaged or destroyed.

remedies hereunder.

certificate of title; provided that the foregoing filing requirement shall not be applicable to the extent the value of such Equipment covered by a certificate of title is less than $500,000. 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, all insurance payments in respect of such Equipment shall be

 5. Remedial Provisions. 
 5.1. Certain Matters Relating to Accounts. (a) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
and after giving written notice to the Company and any other relevant Grantor, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable,
and each Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Notes Collateral Agent may require in connection with such test verifications. The Notes Collateral Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from
such inspection or verification with any Secured Party. 
 (b) The Notes Collateral Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to
collect such Grantor’s Accounts and the Notes Collateral Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required in writing by the Notes Collateral Agent at
any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Accounts, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the
exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Notes Collateral Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of and on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Notes Collateral
Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Notes Collateral Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in subsection 5.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Notes Collateral Agent and the
Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Accounts shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. 
 (c) At the Notes Collateral Agent’s request at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each
Grantor shall deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Accounts, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

 (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, a Grantor shall not grant any extension of the
time of payment of any of the Accounts, compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any person liable for the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon if the
Notes Collateral Agent shall have instructed the Grantors not to grant or make any such extension, credit, discount, compromise, or settlement under any circumstances during the continuance of such Event of Default. 
 5.2. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes
Collateral Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after giving notice to the relevant Grantor of its intent to do so, communicate with obligors under the
Accounts to verify with them to the Notes Collateral Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts. The Notes Collateral Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from such inspection or
verification with any Secured Party. 
 (b) Upon the written request of the Notes Collateral Agent at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Accounts that the Accounts have been assigned to the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect
thereof shall be made directly to the Notes Collateral Agent. 
  

 12 

 (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under
each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any Secured
Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the receipt by the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating
thereto, nor shall the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any
inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of
any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 
 5.3. Proceeds to be
Turned Over To Notes Collateral Agent. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties specified in subsection 5.1 with respect to payments of Accounts, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event
of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Notes Collateral Agent so requires by notice in writing to the relevant Grantor, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor
in trust for the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Notes Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor
(duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Notes Collateral Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Notes Collateral Agent in a Collateral Deposit Account maintained under its sole dominion
and control and on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Notes Collateral Agent. All Proceeds while held by the Notes Collateral Agent in a Collateral Deposit Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Notes Collateral Agent and the
Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in subsection 5.4. 
 5.4. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes Collateral Agent shall apply the
proceeds of any collection or sale of the Collateral as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, at any time after receipt, in accordance with Section 6.13 of the Indenture. 
 Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Notes Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial
proceeding), the receipt of the Notes Collateral Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the
application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Notes Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
 5.5. Code and Other Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Notes Collateral Agent may exercise in
respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the NY UCC or any other applicable law and also may without
notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange broker’s board or at any of the Notes Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit
or for future delivery, at such price or prices and upon such other terms as are commercially reasonable irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such

  

 13 

 
sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers of Collateral to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their
own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and, upon consummation of any such sale, the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the
Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay
and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Notes Collateral Agent 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, and the Notes Collateral Agent may subject pay the purchase price by crediting the amount thereof against the Secured Obligations. Each Grantor agrees
that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The
Notes Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Notes 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. To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against the Notes Collateral Agent arising by reason of the
fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Notes Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such
Collateral to more than one offeree. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Notes Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Notes Collateral Agent at places which the Notes Collateral Agent shall
reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Notes Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this subsection 5.5 in accordance with the provisions of subsection 5.4.

 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Notes Collateral Agent (or its designee)
(a) may proceed to perform any and all of the obligations of any Grantor contained in any contract, lease, or other agreement and exercise any and all rights of any Grantor therein contained as fully as such Grantor itself could and
(b) shall have the right to use any Grantor’s rights under Licenses in connection with the enforcement of the Notes Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder, including the right to prepare for sale and sell any and all Inventory and
Equipment now or hereafter owned by any Grantor and now or hereafter covered by such licenses. The Notes Collateral Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without liability for royalties or any other charge, each Grantor’s
Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, any labels, Patents, Trademarks, trade names, URLs, domain names, industrial designs, Copyrights, and advertising matter, whether owned by any Grantor or with respect to which any Grantor has
rights under license, sublicense, or other agreements (including any License), as it pertains to the Collateral, in preparing for sale, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Grantor’s rights under all licenses and all
franchise agreements shall inure to the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 (c) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that the
Secured Obligations arise out of a commercial transaction, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Notes Collateral Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. The Notes
Collateral Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Grantor, and each Grantor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Grantor may have thereto
or the right to have a bond or other security posted by the Notes Collateral Agent.

 (d) Each right, power, and remedy of the Notes Collateral Agent as provided for in this
Security Agreement or in the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this
Security Agreement and the other Note Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Notes Collateral Agent, of any one or more of such rights, powers, or
remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by any Agent of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies. 
 5.6. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys
employed by the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency. 
 5.7. Amendments, etc. with Respect
to the Secured Obligations: Waiver of Rights. Each Grantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Grantor and without notice to or further assent by any Grantor, (a) any demand
for payment of any of the Secured Obligations made by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by such party and any of the Secured Obligations continued, (b) the Secured Obligations, or the liability of any other
party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived,
surrendered or released by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (c) the Indenture, Notes, the other Note Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented
or terminated, in whole or in part, and (d) any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Secured Obligations may be sold, exchanged,
waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Secured Obligations or for this
Security Agreement or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any Grantor, the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Company or any
Grantor or grantor, and any failure by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Company or any Grantor or grantor or any release of the Company or any Grantor or grantor shall
not relieve any Grantor in respect of which a demand or collection is not made or any Grantor not so released of its several obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a
matter of law, of the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Grantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
 6. The Notes Collateral Agent. 
 6.1. Notes Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact. etc. (a) Each Grantor hereby appoints, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, effective upon and during
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Notes Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor
and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Security Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to
accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Notes Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, either in the Notes Collateral
Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, without assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following, in each case after and during the occurrence of an Event of Default and after written notice by the Notes Collateral
Agent of its intent to do so (it being understood that the Notes Collateral Agent has no obligation to take any such action): 
 (i) take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Account or with respect to any other Collateral and file
any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Notes Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Account or with respect to any other
Collateral whenever payable; 
  

 15 

 (ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have
recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and, papers as the Notes Collateral Agent may request to evidence the Notes Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ Security Interest in such Intellectual Property and the
goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby; 
 (iii) pay or
discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; 
 (iv) execute, in
connection with any sale provided for in subsection 5.5, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; 
 (v) obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to
subsection 4.4; 
 (vi) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of
any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Notes Collateral Agent or as the Notes Collateral Agent shall direct; 
 (vii) ask or demand for, collect and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral;

 (viii) sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse
receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; 
 (ix) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in
respect of any Collateral; 
 (x) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect
to any Collateral (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its resolution could “materially affect such Grantor or any of its Affiliates in any manner other than with respect to its continuing rights in such Collateral);

 (xi) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such
discharges or releases as the Notes Collateral Agent may deem appropriate (with such Grantor’s consent to the extent such action or its resolution could materially affect such Grantor or any of its Affiliates in any manner other than with
respect to its continuing rights in such Collateral); 
  

 16 

 (xii) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of
the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Notes Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and 
 (xiii) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral
as fully and completely as though the Notes Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Notes Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and
things that the Notes Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Notes Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ Security Interests therein and to effect the intent of this Security
Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do. 
 Anything in this subsection 6.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Notes Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this subsection 6.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 (b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Notes Collateral Agent, at its option, but
without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement. 
 (c) The expenses of the Notes Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this subsection 6.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would
then be payable on any Notes, from the date of payment by the Notes Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Notes Collateral Agent on demand. 
 (d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations
and agencies contained in this Security Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Security Agreement is terminated and the Security Interests created hereby are released. 
 6.2. Duty of Notes Collateral Agent. The Notes Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the NY UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Notes Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The Notes
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Notes Collateral Agent accords its
own property. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing
so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on
the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Notes Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Notes Collateral Agent or any
Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  

 17 

 Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Notes Collateral Agent
shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the
Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any
security interest in the Collateral. The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or
bailee selected by the Notes Collateral Agent in good faith. 
 The Notes Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the
existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any of any action or omission to act on
its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Notes Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or
assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the
Collateral. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, the Notes Collateral
Agent shall have no duty to act outside of the United States in respect of any Collateral located in the jurisdiction other than the United States. 
 6.3. Authority of Notes Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement with respect to any action taken
by the Notes Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Notes Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Security Agreement shall, as
between the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Indenture and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Notes Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the
Notes Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry
respecting such authority. 
 6.4. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Notes Collateral Agent here under, the
security interest and all obligations of the Grantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional. 
 6.5. Continuing
Security Interest; Assignments Under the Indenture; Release. (a) This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Grantor and the successors and assigns
thereof and shall inure to the benefit of the Notes Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and permitted assigns until all Secured Obligations and the obligations of each Grantor under
this Security Agreement shall have been satisfied by payment in full. In addition, the security interests granted hereunder shall terminate and be released, in whole or in part, as to Note Obligations under the Indenture, as provided in the
Indenture (including Sections 10.06, 12.03 and 12.09 thereof). 
  

 18 

 (b) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to foregoing paragraph (a), the
Notes Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to
this subsection 6.5 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 6.6. Reinstatement. This
Security Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Notes Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any other Credit Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee
or similar officer for, the Company or any other Credit Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. 
 7. Notes Collateral Agent As Agent. 
 (a) The Bank of New York Mellon has
been appointed to act as Notes Collateral Agent under the Indenture by the Secured Parties. The Notes Collateral Agent shall be obligated, and 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 any action (including the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Security Agreement, the Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreement, provided that the Notes Collateral
Agent shall exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for in Section 5 in accordance with the instructions of Required Secured Parties. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this subsection 7(a), each Secured Party, by
its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised
solely by the Notes Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this subsection 7(a). 
 (b) The Notes Collateral Agent shall at all times be the same Person that is the “Notes Collateral Agent” under and as defined in the Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, written notice of resignation by the “Notes
Collateral Agent” (under and as defined in the Indenture) pursuant to the Indenture shall also constitute notice of resignation as Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement; removal of the “Notes Collateral Agent” (under
and as defined in the Indenture) shall also constitute removal as Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement; and appointment of a successor “Notes Collateral Agent” (under and as defined in the Indenture) pursuant the Indenture
shall also constitute appointment of a successor Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as “Notes Collateral Agent” (under and as defined in the Indenture) pursuant to the Indenture by
a successor Notes Collateral Agent, that successor Notes Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Notes Collateral Agent under this Security
Agreement, and the retiring or removed Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Notes Collateral Agent all sums, securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with
all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Notes Collateral
Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Notes Collateral Agent of the Security Interests
created hereunder, whereupon such re tiring or removed Notes Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Security Agreement. After any retiring or removed Notes Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal
hereunder as Notes Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Security Agreement

  

 19 

 
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Security Agreement while it was Notes Collateral Agent hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, upon the occurrence of Discharge of Obligations with respect to the Indenture, the Required Secured Parties shall be entitled to appoint a successor Notes Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement and the other Security Documents.

 8. Miscellaneous. 
 8.1. Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the
affected Grantor and the Notes Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 9.01 or 9.02, as applicable, of the Indenture. 
 8.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands pursuant hereto shall, if to the Notes Collateral Agent, Trustee or any Holder, be made in accordance with the Indenture (whether or not then in effect). All communications and notices
hereunder to any Subsidiary Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Company at the Company’s address set forth in Section 14.02 of the Indenture (whether or not then in effect). 
 8.3. No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall by any act
(except by a written instrument pursuant to subsection 8.1 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of
the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right
or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that the Notes Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges
herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law. 
 8.4. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Grantor agrees to pay any and all expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that may be paid or incurred by any
Secured Party in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Secured Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, such Grantor under this
Security Agreement. 
 (b) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Notes Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties harmless
from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of
the transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement. 
 (c) Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Notes Collateral
Agent and the Secured Parties harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery,
enforcement, performance and administration of this Security Agreement to the extent the Company would be required to do so pursuant to subsection 12.12 of the Indenture (whether or not then in effect). 
  

 20 

 (d) The agreements in this subsection 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Secured Obligations
and all other amounts payable under the Indenture, Notes and the other Note Documents. 
 8.5. Successors and Assigns.
The provisions of this Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or
obligations under this Security Agreement except pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Indenture and any such prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void. 
 8.6. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Security Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other
electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Security Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Notes Collateral Agent
and the Company. 
 8.7. Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement that 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, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 8.8. Section Headings. The
Section headings used in this Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof. 
 8.9. Integration. This Security Agreement represents the agreement of each of the Grantors with respect to the subject matter hereof
and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Notes Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Note Documents.

 8.10. GOVERNING LAW. THE VALIDITY OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY
PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER NOTE DOCUMENT IN RESPECT OF SUCH OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT), THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO OR THERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 8.11. Submission To Jurisdiction Waivers. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Security Agreement and the other Note Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any
judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 
  

 21 

 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such
courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof
by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Grantor at its address referred to in subsection 8.2 or at such other address of which the Notes Collateral Agent shall have been notified pursuant
thereto; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right of the Notes Collateral Agent or any other
Secured Party to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of the Notes Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or
proceeding referred to in this subsection 8.11 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
 8.12.
Acknowledgments. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that: 
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Security Agreement and the other Note Documents to which it is a party; 
 (b) neither the Notes Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Security Agreement or the other Note Documents, and the relationship
between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Notes Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Note Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions
contemplated hereby among the Holders and any other Secured Party or among the Grantors and the Holders and any other Secured Party. 
 8.13. Additional Grantors. Each Subsidiary of the Company that becomes a “Guarantor” under and as defined in the Indenture shall become a Grantor, with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein,
for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of a Supplement substantially in the form of Annex 1 hereto. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Grantor as a party to this Security
Agreement shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Security Agreement
or the release of any existing Grantor from its rights and obligations hereunder. 
 8.14. Intercreditor Agreement; Delivery
of ABL Priority Collateral. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens and security interests granted to
the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Notes Collateral Agent hereunder, are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2010 (as
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among the ABL Agent, The Bank of New York Mellon, as Senior Secured Notes Agent, and following the execution of a Junior Secured Debt
Joinder Agreement (as 
  

 22 

 
defined therein), the Junior Secured Debt Agent (as defined therein). In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Security Agreement, the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all rights and remedies of the Notes Collateral Agent (and the Secured Parties)
shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and, with respect to any ABL Priority Collateral (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) until the Discharge of ABL Obligations (as such term is defined in the
Intercreditor Agreement), any obligation of any Grantor hereunder or under any other Security Document with respect to the delivery or control of any ABL Priority Collateral, the novation of any lien on any certificate of title, bill of lading or
other document, the giving of any notice to any bailee or other Person, the provision of voting rights or the obtaining of any consent of any Person shall be deemed to be satisfied if such Grantor complies with the requirements of the similar
provision of the applicable ABL Loan Document (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). Until the Discharge of ABL Obligations, the delivery of any ABL Priority Collateral to, or the control of any ABL Priority Collateral by, the ABL
Collateral Agent pursuant to the ABL Loan Documents shall satisfy any delivery or control requirement hereunder or under any other Security Document; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Grantor
shall be required to deliver to the Notes Collateral Agent Control Agreements in accordance with Section 4.5. 
 8.15.
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH GRANTOR AND THE NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH GRANTOR AND THE NOTES COLLATERAL
AGENT REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN
CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT. 
 8.16. Capacity of Notes Collateral Agent. The Bank of New York Mellon is entering
into this Agreement in its capacity as “notes collateral agent” under the Indenture and the rights, powers, privileges and protections afforded to the “notes collateral agent” under the Indenture shall also apply to The Bank of

 SECURITY AGREEMENT 
 SUPPLEMENT NO.
[    ] dated as of [                    ], to the Security Agreement dated as of January 29, 2010 (the

notes collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Notes Collateral Agent”) for the Secured Parties 
 A. Reference
