 2. Grant of Options. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the right and option to
purchase, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the number of Shares subject to the Time Option, EBITDA Performance Option and NWC Performance Option set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, subject to adjustment as set forth in the
Plan. The exercise price of the Shares subject to each Option shall be $100.00 per Share, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Plan (the “Option Price”). The Options are intended to be nonqualified stock options, and are
not intended to be treated as ISOs that comply with Section 422 of the Code. 
 3. Vesting of the Options. 

(a) Vesting of the Time Option. Subject to the Participant’s continued Employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the Time
Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to such Time Option on December 31, 2007 and shall vest and become exercisable with respect to an additional
thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to the Time Option on each December 31 thereafter, until such Shares subject to the Time Option are one hundred percent (100%) vested and exercisable. 

(b) Vesting of the Performance Option. 

(i) In General. Subject to the Participant’s continued Employment with the Company and its Affiliates, each
Performance Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to thirty-three and one-third (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to such Performance Option on the date that the financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007
are completed by the Operating Company’s external auditors (the “Sign-Off Date”) and an additional thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares on the date that the financial statements are completed by the
Operating Company’s external auditors with respect to each of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2009 (the Sign-Off Date and each such date, a “Performance Vesting Date”) to the extent
that the applicable Performance Actual for the fiscal year ending prior to a Performance Vesting Date equals or exceeds (or in the case of Actual Net Working Capital Percentage, equals or is less than) the applicable Performance Target for such
fiscal year. 
 (ii) Catch-Up. Notwithstanding the foregoing vesting provisions set forth in Section 3(b)(i), if
Actual EBITDA does not equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA with respect to any of fiscal years 2007 through 2009 (a “Missed Year”), then, the EBITDA Performance Option may nevertheless vest and become exercisable
with respect to the Shares subject to the EBITDA Performance Option in respect of such Missed Year as follows: 
 (A) If the
Actual EBITDA for any of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2007 through December 31, 2009 exceeds the Target EBITDA for 

 
such fiscal year (an “Excess Year”) and the Participant remains employed with the Company and its Affiliates through the Performance Vesting Date applicable to such Excess
Year (i.e., following the end of such Excess Year), then an amount equal to the excess of the Actual EBITDA for such Excess Year over the Target EBITDA for such Excess Year shall be credited to a notional account for that Excess Year (an
“Excess Account”). 
 (B) Any amounts in an Excess Account shall be applied to any previous or
subsequent Missed Year(s) (with application to the earliest Missed Year(s) first). If the sum of the Actual EBITDA for any Missed Year, when supplemented with amounts allocated to the Missed Year from the Excess Account equals or exceeds the
applicable Performance Target for such Missed Year, then the EBITDA Performance Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to the Shares subject to the EBITDA Performance Option in respect of such Missed Year and the amounts so allocated
to the Missed Year from the Excess Account shall be debited from the Excess Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 is a Missed Year, no more than $20 million may be credited from an Excess Account
for such fiscal year. 
 (c) Termination of Employment. 

(i) General. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than as described in Sections 3(c)(ii), if the
Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates for any reason, the Option, to the extent not then vested and exercisable, shall expire and be immediately canceled by the Company without consideration. 

(ii) Time Option. Notwithstanding Section 3(a) and 3(c)(i), in the event that the Participant’s Employment is
terminated due to death, Disability or Retirement, to the extent not previously cancelled or expired, the Time Option shall immediately become vested and exercisable as to the Shares subject to the Time Option that would have otherwise vested and
become exercisable in the fiscal year in which such termination of Employment occurs and any remaining unvested portion of the Time Option shall expire and be immediately canceled by the Company without consideration. 

4. Exercise of Options. 

(a) Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement (and any other agreement entered into by the Participant and
the Company), the Participant may exercise all or any part of the Vested Portion of an Option at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s Employment terminates prior to the Expiration Date, the
Vested Portion of an Option shall remain exercisable only for the period set forth below (and shall expire upon termination of such period): 

(i) Termination due to Death or Disability. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is
terminated due to the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of an Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) one year following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration
Date; 

  
 4 

 (ii) Termination by the Company without Cause or Termination by the
Participant. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated (a) by the Company without Cause or (b) by the Participant (other than due to the Participant’s Retirement), the Participant may
exercise the Vested Portion of an Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) 90 days following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration Date; 

(iii) Termination by the Participant due to Retirement. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its
Affiliates is terminated by the Participant due to Retirement, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of an Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) two years following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration
Date; and Termination by the Company for Cause. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company for Cause, the Vested Portion of an Option shall immediately terminate in full and cease to be
exercisable. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. 

(i) Subject to Section 4(a) of this Agreement, the Vested Portion of an Option may be exercised by delivering to the
Company at its principal office written notice of intent to so exercise; provided that the Option may be exercised with respect to whole Shares only. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised and,
other than as described in clause (C) or (D) of the following sentence, shall be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Option Price in respect of such Shares. Payment of the aggregate Option Price may be made (A) in cash, or
its equivalent, (B) by transferring to the Company Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased and satisfying such other requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided
that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles), (C) if there is a public market for the Shares
at the time of payment, subject to such rules as may be established by the Committee, through delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the Option and deliver promptly to the
Company an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price, or (D) such other method as approved by the Committee. No Participant shall have any rights to dividends or other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to an Option
until the Participant has given written notice of exercise of the Option, paid in full for such Shares or otherwise completed the exercise transaction as described in the preceding sentence and, if applicable, has satisfied any other conditions
imposed pursuant to this Agreement. 

 (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the
contrary, absent an available exemption to registration or qualification, an Option may not be exercised prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Option or the Shares under applicable state and federal securities or other
laws, or under any ruling or regulation of any governmental body or national securities exchange that the Committee shall in its sole reasonable discretion determine to be required by such laws, rulings or regulations. 

(iii) Upon the Company’s determination that an Option has been validly exercised as to any of the Shares, the Company
shall issue certificates in the Participant’s name for such Shares. However, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any reasonable delays in issuing the certificates to the Participant or any loss by the
Participant of the certificates. 
 (iv) In the event of the Participant’s death, the Vested Portion of an Option shall
remain vested and exercisable by the Participant’s executor or administrator, or the person or persons to whom the Participant’s rights under this Agreement shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as the case may be,
to the extent setforth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement. Any heir or legatee of the Participant shall take rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 

(v) Without limiting the generality of Section 12, as a condition to the exercise of any Option evidenced by this
Agreement, the Participant shall execute the Stockholders Agreement and the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, which shall be substantially the forms attached hereto as Exhibits A and B, respectively. 

5. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Participant the right to be
retained in the employ of, or in any consulting relationship to, the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or its Affiliate may at any time terminate the Participant or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any
claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 
 6. Legend on Certificates. The
certificates representing the Shares purchased by exercise of an Option shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may determine is required by the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares are listed, any applicable federal or state laws and the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put
on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 

  
 6 

 7. Transferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an Option may not
be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale,
transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
During the Participant’s lifetime, an Option is exercisable only by the Participant. 
 8. Withholding. The
Participant may be required to pay to the Company or its Affiliate and the Company or its Affiliate shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any payment due or transfer made under the Option or under the Plan or from any
compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property) of any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Option, its exercise, or any payment or transfer under the
Option or under the Plan and to take such action as may be necessary in the option of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. 

9. Securities Laws. Upon the acquisition of any Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option, the Participant will make or enter into

not intended to be treated as ISOs that comply with Section 422 of the Code. 
 3. Vesting of the Options. 

(a) Vesting of the Time Option. Subject to the Participant’s continued Employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the Time
Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to such Time Option on December 31, 2007 and shall vest and become exercisable with respect to an additional
thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to the Time Option on each December 31 thereafter, until such Shares subject to the Time Option are one hundred percent (100%) vested and exercisable. 

(b) Vesting of the Performance Option. 

(i) In General. Subject to the Participant’s continued Employment with the Company and its Affiliates, each
Performance Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to thirty-three and one-third (33 1/3%) of the Shares subject to such Performance Option on the date that the financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007
are completed by the Operating Company’s external auditors (the “Sign-Off Date”) and an additional thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the Shares on the date that the financial statements are completed by the
Operating Company’s external auditors with respect to each of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2009 (the Sign-Off Date and each such date, a “Performance Vesting Date”) to the extent
that the applicable Performance Actual for the fiscal year ending prior to a Performance Vesting Date equals or exceeds (or in the case of Actual Net Working Capital Percentage, equals or is less than) the applicable Performance Target for such

 (ii) Catch-Up. Notwithstanding the foregoing vesting provisions set forth in Section 3(b)(i), if
Actual EBITDA does not equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA with respect to any of fiscal years 2007 through 2009 (a “Missed Year”), then, the EBITDA Performance Option may nevertheless vest and become exercisable

 (A) If the
Actual EBITDA for any of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2007 through December 31, 2009 exceeds the Target EBITDA for 

 
such fiscal year (an “Excess Year”) and the Participant remains employed with the Company and its Affiliates through the Performance Vesting Date applicable to such Excess
Year (i.e., following the end of such Excess Year), then an amount equal to the excess of the Actual EBITDA for such Excess Year over the Target EBITDA for such Excess Year shall be credited to a notional account for that Excess Year (an
“Excess Account”). 
 (B) Any amounts in an Excess Account shall be applied to any previous or
subsequent Missed Year(s) (with application to the earliest Missed Year(s) first). If the sum of the Actual EBITDA for any Missed Year, when supplemented with amounts allocated to the Missed Year from the Excess Account equals or exceeds the
applicable Performance Target for such Missed Year, then the EBITDA Performance Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to the Shares subject to the EBITDA Performance Option in respect of such Missed Year and the amounts so allocated
to the Missed Year from the Excess Account shall be debited from the Excess Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009 is a Missed Year, no more than $20 million may be credited from an Excess Account
for such fiscal year. 
 (c) Termination of Employment. 

(i) General. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than as described in Sections 3(c)(ii), if the
Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates for any reason, the Option, to the extent not then vested and exercisable, shall expire and be immediately canceled by the Company without consideration. 

(ii) Time Option. Notwithstanding Section 3(a) and 3(c)(i), in the event that the Participant’s Employment is
terminated due to death, Disability or Retirement, to the extent not previously cancelled or expired, the Time Option shall immediately become vested and exercisable as to the Shares subject to the Time Option that would have otherwise vested and
become exercisable in the fiscal year in which such termination of Employment occurs and any remaining unvested portion of the Time Option shall expire and be immediately canceled by the Company without consideration. 

4. Exercise of Options. 

(a) Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement (and any other agreement entered into by the Participant and
the Company), the Participant may exercise all or any part of the Vested Portion of an Option at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s Employment terminates prior to the Expiration Date, the

 4 

 (ii) Termination by the Company without Cause or Termination by the
Participant. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated (a) by the Company without Cause or (b) by the Participant (other than due to the Participant’s Retirement), the Participant may
exercise the Vested Portion of an Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) 90 days following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration Date; 

(iii) Termination by the Participant due to Retirement. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its
Affiliates is terminated by the Participant due to Retirement, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of an Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) two years following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration
Date; and Termination by the Company for Cause. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company for Cause, the Vested Portion of an Option shall immediately terminate in full and cease to be
exercisable. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. 

(i) Subject to Section 4(a) of this Agreement, the Vested Portion of an Option may be exercised by delivering to the
Company at its principal office written notice of intent to so exercise; provided that the Option may be exercised with respect to whole Shares only. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised and,
other than as described in clause (C) or (D) of the following sentence, shall be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Option Price in respect of such Shares. Payment of the aggregate Option Price may be made (A) in cash, or
its equivalent, (B) by transferring to the Company Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased and satisfying such other requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided
that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles), (C) if there is a public market for the Shares
at the time of payment, subject to such rules as may be established by the Committee, through delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the Option and deliver promptly to the
Company an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price, or (D) such other method as approved by the Committee. No Participant shall have any rights to dividends or other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to an Option
until the Participant has given written notice of exercise of the Option, paid in full for such Shares or otherwise completed the exercise transaction as described in the preceding sentence and, if applicable, has satisfied any other conditions
imposed pursuant to this Agreement. 

 (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the
contrary, absent an available exemption to registration or qualification, an Option may not be exercised prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Option or the Shares under applicable state and federal securities or other
laws, or under any ruling or regulation of any governmental body or national securities exchange that the Committee shall in its sole reasonable discretion determine to be required by such laws, rulings or regulations. 

(iii) Upon the Company’s determination that an Option has been validly exercised as to any of the Shares, the Company
shall issue certificates in the Participant’s name for such Shares. However, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any reasonable delays in issuing the certificates to the Participant or any loss by the
Participant of the certificates. 
 (iv) In the event of the Participant’s death, the Vested Portion of an Option shall
remain vested and exercisable by the Participant’s executor or administrator, or the person or persons to whom the Participant’s rights under this Agreement shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as the case may be,
to the extent setforth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement. Any heir or legatee of the Participant shall take rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 

(v) Without limiting the generality of Section 12, as a condition to the exercise of any Option evidenced by this
