Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Losses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with such Proceeding, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in
a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. The parties hereto intend
that this Agreement shall provide to the fullest extent permitted by law for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute, including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, the
Bylaws, or the vote of its stockholders or Disinterested Directors.

 Section 4. Indemnity in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. The
Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment
in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with such
Proceeding, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. No indemnification for Expenses shall be made under this Section 4 in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged by a court to be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court or any court in which the Proceeding was brought shall determine upon
application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. 

Section 5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is a party to (or a participant in) and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, in whole or in part, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the
merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in
connection with or related to each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter to the fullest extent permitted by law. For purposes of this Section 5 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by
dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. 
 Section 6.
Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a witness or
otherwise asked to participate in any aspect of a Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he or she shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her on his or her behalf in connection therewith. 

Section 7. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the
Corporation for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 

Section 8. Additional Indemnification. Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, 5 or 7, the Corporation shall indemnify
Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (as now in effect or as may from time to time hereafter be amended to increase the scope of such permitted indemnification) if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to
or a participant in any Proceeding against all Losses actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. 

  
 6 

 Section 9. Sponsor and ABS Control Group Indemnification. If a Sponsor Group Member
with which Indemnitee is affiliated or the ABS Control Group is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding relating to or arising by reason of such Sponsor Group Member’s or the ABS Control Group’s position
as a direct or indirect stockholder of the Corporation or appointment of, or affiliation with, Indemnitee or any other Agent, including without limitation, any alleged misappropriation of an asset or corporate opportunity of any Enterprise, any
alleged misappropriation or infringement of intellectual property relating to any Enterprise, any alleged false or misleading statement or omission made by any Enterprise (or on its behalf) or its employees or Agents, or any allegation of
inappropriate control or influence over the Corporation or its directors, officers, stockholders or debt holders; then such Sponsor Group Member and the ABS Control Group will be entitled to indemnification hereunder to the same extent as
Indemnitee, and the terms of this Agreement as they relate to procedures for indemnification of Indemnitee and advancement of Expenses shall apply to any such indemnification of such Sponsor Group Member or the ABS Control Group. The rights provided
to such Sponsor Group Member or the ABS Control Group under this Section 9 shall be suspended during any period during which such Sponsor Group Member or the ABS Control Group, as applicable, does not have a representative on the Board;
provided, however, that in the event of any such suspension, such Sponsor Group Member’s or the ABS Control Group’s rights to indemnification will not be suspended with respect to any Proceeding based in whole or in part on
facts and circumstances occurring at any time prior to such suspension regardless of whether the Proceeding arises before or after such suspension. The Corporation and Indemnitee agree that each of the Sponsor Group Members and the ABS Control Group
are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 9. 
 Section 10. Exclusions. Notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement, the Corporation shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee: 

(a) for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except
with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; provided that the foregoing shall not affect any rights of Indemnitee, any Sponsor Group Member or the ABS Control Group set forth in
Section 16(c); 
 (b) for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of
securities of the Corporation within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law, or (ii) any reimbursement of the Corporation by Indemnitee of any bonus or other
incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Corporation, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting
restatement of the Corporation pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or the payment to the Corporation of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act); or 
 (c) except as provided in Section 15(d) in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by
Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Corporation or its directors, officers, 

  
 7 

 
employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation, (ii) such payment arises in connection with any
mandatory counterclaim or cross-claim or affirmative defense brought or raised by Indemnitee in any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding), or (iii) the Corporation provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the
powers vested in the Corporation under applicable law. 
 Section 11. Advances of Expenses. Notwithstanding any provision of
this Agreement to the contrary (other than Section 15(d)), the Corporation shall advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding)
not initiated by Indemnitee, and such advancement shall be made within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time (which shall include invoices received by
Indemnitee in connection with such Expenses but, in the case of invoices in connection with legal services, any references to legal work performed or to expenditures made that would cause Indemnitee to waive any privilege accorded by applicable law
shall not be so included), whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to
Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. In accordance with Section 15(d), advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right
of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Corporation to support the advances claimed. Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Corporation of this Agreement, which
shall constitute an undertaking by Indemnitee to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation. No other form of undertaking shall be
required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 11 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnification is excluded pursuant to Section 10. 

Section 12. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim. 

(a) Indemnitee shall notify the Corporation in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or
advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof or Indemnitee’s becoming aware thereof. The written notification to the Corporation shall include a description of
the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding, in each case to the extent known to Indemnitee. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or
therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such Proceeding.
The failure by Indemnitee to notify the Corporation hereunder will not relieve the Corporation from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Corporation shall
not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement, except to the extent (solely with respect to the indemnity hereunder) that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Corporation. The Secretary of the Corporation shall,
promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. 

  
 8 

 (b) The Corporation will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense. 

(c) Settlement of Proceedings. 

i. The Corporation shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment as to Indemnitee in any Proceeding (in whole or in
part) without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of Indemnitee and does not (A) require or impose any
injunctive or other non-monetary remedy on Indemnitee, (B) require or impose an admission or consent as to any wrongdoing by Indemnitee or (C) otherwise result in a direct or indirect payment by or monetary cost to Indemnitee personally
(as opposed to a payment to be made or cost to be paid by the Corporation on Indemnitee’s behalf). 
 ii. Indemnitee shall not settle,
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment as to Indemnitee in any Proceeding (in whole or in part) without the Corporation’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement, compromise or
consent includes an unconditional release of the Enterprises and does not (A) require or impose any injunctive or other non-monetary remedy on any Enterprise, (B) require or impose an admission or consent as to any wrongdoing by any
Enterprise, or (C) otherwise result in a direct or indirect payment by or monetary cost to any Enterprise. 
 Section 13.
Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification. 
 (a) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to
Section 12(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written
opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (B) by
a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion
to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate
with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information
which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person,
persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Corporation (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification), and the Corporation hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless
therefrom. The Corporation promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been
denied. 

  
 9 

 (b) In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent
Counsel pursuant to Section 13(a), the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 13(b). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Corporation
shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request
that such selection be made by the Board, in which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Corporation advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee
or the Corporation, as the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Corporation or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection;
provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements set forth in Section 1(t), and the objection shall set forth with particularity the
factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel
unless and until such objection is withdrawn or the Delaware Court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to
Section 12(a) hereof and the final disposition of the Proceeding, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Corporation or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for resolution of any objection which
shall have been made by the Corporation or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person as such court shall designate,
and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 13(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any Proceeding pursuant to Section 15(a), Independent
Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing). 

(c) If the Corporation disputes a portion of the amounts for which indemnification is requested, the undisputed portion shall be paid and only
the disputed portion withheld pending resolution of any such dispute. 
 Section 14. Presumptions and Effect of Certain
Proceedings. 
 (a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity
making such determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with
Section 12(a), and the Corporation shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that
presumption. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the 

  
 10 

 
commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual
determination by the Corporation (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable
standard of conduct. 
 (b) Subject to Section 15(e), if the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 13 to
determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Corporation of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification
shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to
make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such sixty (60)-day period
may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the
obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 14(b) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to
be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 13(a). 
 (c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter
therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in
good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful. 
 (d) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if
Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of any Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors or officers of such Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the
advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. The
provisions of this Section 14(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement. Whether or not the
foregoing provisions of this Section 14(d) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation. 
 (e) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary,
Agent or employee of any Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

 Section 15. Remedies of Indemnitee. 

(a) Subject to Section 15(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 that Indemnitee is not
entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 11, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 13(a)
within ninety (90) days after receipt by the Corporation of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Sections 5 or 6 or the last sentence of Section 13(a) within ten (10) days
after receipt by the Corporation of a written request therefor, (v) payment of indemnification pursuant to Sections 3, 4, 8 or 9 is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification, or (vi) the Corporation or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits
provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his or her
option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such Proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in
arbitration within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such Proceeding pursuant to this Section 15(a); provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not
apply in respect of a Proceeding brought by Indemnitee to enforce his or her rights under Section 5. The Corporation shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration. 

(b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification,
any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 15 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In
any Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 15, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be. 

(c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation
shall be bound by such determination in any Proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 15, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not
materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law. 

(d) The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be precluded from asserting in any Proceeding commenced pursuant to
this Section 15 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such Proceeding that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. It is the intent of
the Corporation that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by
litigation 

  
 12 

 
or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder. The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Corporation of a written request therefor) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such
Expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Corporation under this Agreement or under any directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Corporation if, in the case of indemnification, Indemnitee is wholly successful on the underlying claims; if Indemnitee is not wholly successful on the underlying claims, then such
indemnification shall be only to the extent Indemnitee is successful on such underlying claims or otherwise as permitted by law, whichever is greater. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this
Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding. 
 Section 16. Non-exclusivity; Survival of
Rights; Insurance; Subrogation. 
 (a) The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement
(i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders, a resolution of directors or
otherwise, and (ii) shall be interpreted independently of, and without reference to, any other such rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall
limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law,
whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Bylaws, the Certificate of Incorporation and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that
Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other right or remedy. 
 (b) To the extent that the Corporation maintains an insurance policy or policies providing
liability insurance for directors, officers, employees or Agents of any Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director,
officer, employee or Agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Corporation has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Corporation shall give prompt
notice of such claim or of the commencement of a Proceeding, as the case may be, to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Corporation shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause
such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 

  
 13 

 (c) The Corporation acknowledges that Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification,
advancement of Expenses, or insurance provided by a Sponsor Group Member or Members or the ABS Control Group. The Corporation hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort, its obligations to Indemnitee hereunder are primary, and
any obligation of the applicable Sponsor Group Member or Members or the ABS Control Group to advance Expenses or to provide indemnification for the same Expenses or Losses incurred by Indemnitee are secondary; (ii) that it shall be required to
advance the full amount of Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Losses paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation, the
Bylaws, and any other agreement between the Corporation and Indemnitee, without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against such Sponsor Group Member or Members or the ABS Control Group; and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes
and releases such Sponsor Group Member or Members and the ABS Control Group from any and all claims against such Sponsor Group Member or Members and the ABS Control Group for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect
thereof. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by such Sponsor Group Member or Members or the ABS Control Group on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the
Corporation shall affect the foregoing, and such Sponsor Group Member or Members and the ABS Control Group shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of
Indemnitee against the Corporation. The Corporation and Indemnitee agree that each Sponsor Group Member and the ABS Control Group are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 16(c). 

(d) Except as to all entities described in Section 16(c), in the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Corporation shall be
subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the
Corporation to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
 (e) Except as provided in Section 16(c), the Corporation shall not be liable under
this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract,
agreement or otherwise. 
 (f) Except as provided in Section 16(c), the Corporation’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses
hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or Agent of another Enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually
received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such other Enterprise. 
 Section 17. Duration of Agreement. This
Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director, officer, employee or Agent of any Enterprise, as applicable, or (b) one
(1) year after the final termination of any Proceeding then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any Proceeding

  
 14 

 
commenced (including any appeal thereof) by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 15 relating thereto. The indemnification and advancement of Expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this
Agreement shall be binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the
business or assets of the Corporation), shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or Agent of any Enterprise, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his or her spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees,
executors and administrators and other legal representatives. The Corporation shall require and shall cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or
assets of the Corporation to, by written agreement, expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. 

Section 18. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions
shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent
manifested thereby. 
 Section 19. Enforcement. 

(a) The Corporation expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in
order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation, and the Corporation acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director or officer of the Corporation. 

(b) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Certificate of
Incorporation, the Bylaws, any directors’ and officers’ insurance maintained by the Corporation and applicable law, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder. 

Section 20. Modification and Waiver. Except as provided in Section 8 with respect to changes in Delaware law which broaden
the right of Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Corporation, no supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. 

  
 15

this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered by hand and receipted for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed, (b) mailed by certified or

on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect
(a) the relative benefits received by the Corporation and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (b) the relative fault of the Corporation (and its directors, officers,
employees and Agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s). 
 Section 23. Applicable Law and
Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with
respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 15(a), the Corporation and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) agree that any Proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be

Proceeding arising out of or in connection with this

an improper or inconvenient forum. 
 Section 24. Identical Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be
produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement. 
 Section 25. Headings. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.

September 21, 2015 
 Mr. Robert G. Miller 

c/o Albertsons Companies, Inc. 
 250 Parkcenter Blvd. 

Boise, ID 83706 
 Dear Bob: 

As you are aware, in connection with the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (the
“Company”), the ownership of each of AB Acquisition LLC (“Holdings”), New Albertson’s, Inc., Albertson’s LLC and Safeway Inc. is being restructured, and as a result, each will become a subsidiary of the
Company (the “Restructuring”). 
 The purpose of this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) is to:
(i) amend and restate your employment agreement with Holdings, dated March 13, 2006, together with Exhibit A thereto, as amended to date, including the amendment dated March 6, 2014, together with Exhibit A thereto (the “Prior
Employment Agreement”), to reflect the assignment of your employment to the Company and the assignment of the rights and obligations of Holdings under the Prior Employment Agreement to the Company, and the assumption of such rights and
obligations by the Company, and (ii) set forth the terms and conditions of your continued employment with the Company as set forth in Exhibit A. 

Effective as of the consummation of the Restructuring (the “Effective Date”), Holdings assigns to the Company its rights and
obligations under the Prior Employment Agreement and the Company assumes such rights and obligations. By executing this Agreement, you are indicating your consent to the assignment by Holdings and the assumption thereof by the Company set forth in
the prior sentence and agree that the Company is the successor to the rights and obligations of Holdings under the Prior Employment Agreement as of the Effective Date. 

This Agreement is expressly conditioned upon the occurrence of the Restructuring, and should the Restructuring not occur, this Agreement shall
be void ab initio and the Prior Employment Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 If you agree with the terms of this
Agreement, then please execute the enclosed duplicate of this Agreement and return it to me. 
  

			
	Very truly yours,
	
	ALBERTSONS COMPANIES, INC.

	Title:	 	Executive Vice President, Human Resources, Labor Relations, Communications, Public Affairs & Government Affairs

 Robert G. Miller Employment Agreement 

(this “Agreement”) 

Terms of Employment 
  

			
	Employer and Responsibilities:	  	As of the Effective Date, Robert G. Miller (the “Executive”) shall continue to be and shall be during the entire Term (A) the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (which shall be the senior most executive officer)
of the Company and (B) a voting member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and of any executive or operating committee of the Board other than, following the IPO, the compensation committee, audit committee or any
other committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or applicable securities exchange to be made up of solely independent directors. Executive shall devote substantially his full business time (excluding periods of
vacation, time spent serving on corporate, industry, civic or charitable boards, managing his personal investments and approved absences) to the performance of his duties.
		
		  	 Executive shall report solely to the Board and shall have such duties, powers and status as is commensurate with his position as the Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Subject to the consent of the Board, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Executive shall have the sole right to appoint and terminate the appointment of the Company’s executive officers (other
than the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Company with respect to whom the appointment and termination shall be recommended by Executive and subject to approval by the Board).

 
 Executive agrees that he shall abide by, and shall conduct business in accordance with and
subject to, all applicable written customary and lawful policies and procedures of the Company as in effect from time to time, including without limitation, any such policies adopted or implemented by the Company in respect of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.

		
	Term:	  	The “Term” of Executive’s employment hereunder will be from the Effective Date through January 30, 2018. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive and/or the Company, subject to compliance with the provisions of
this Agreement, shall have the right to terminate the Term earlier for any reason.
		
	Base Salary:	  	$2,000,000 per annum, payable no less frequently than in monthly installments, pro-rated for partial years during the Term.
		
	Annual Bonus	  	Executive shall be eligible to receive a bonus (“Annual Bonus”) for each fiscal year of the Company under a plan established by the Company in the amount determined by the Board (or its Compensation Committee) based
upon achievement of performance measures derived from the business plan presented by management and approved by the Board (or its Compensation Committee). Executive’s target Annual Bonus shall be 60% of Base Salary (the “Target
Bonus”). For fiscal year 2015, Executive shall continue to be eligible for an Annual Bonus under the bonus plan in which Executive is a participant prior to the Restructuring based upon the performance of the Company and its subsidiaries.
If such performance measures are only partially achieved or not achieved, Executive shall only be entitled to such Annual Bonus, if any, as provided under the applicable Annual Bonus plan or as otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the
Board (or its Compensation Committee). The Annual Bonus, if any, shall be paid in the calendar quarter following the quarter in which such Annual Bonus was earned.
		  	

  
 2 

			
	Post Term Payments:	  	After the Term, the Company shall be obligated to pay Executive a monthly amount in advance equal to $50,000 for each month (or partial month) during his lifetime and, thereafter, $25,000 per month for each month (or partial month)
in advance to his surviving spouse during her lifetime; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to make such payments following the tenth anniversary of the end of the Term.
		
	Benefits:	  	Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the employee and executive benefit plans and programs maintained by the Company, all on the most favorable terms maintained for the Company’s senior executive team or as
provided for any new senior executives of the Company or its subsidiaries. In addition, the Company will continue to maintain the $5.0 million Key man life insurance policy on Executive’s life in favor of one or more beneficiaries designated
from time to time by Executive that was assigned to Executive by Holdings, and will maintain such policy (or substitute equivalent policies) in effect for a period through at least January 30, 2025 (whether or not Executive is then employed with the
Company).
		
		  	In addition, during the Term, Executive will be entitled to the use of corporate aircraft consistent with the Companies’ current fleet for up to 100 hours per annum for personal use by Executive, his family members and guests
at no cost to Executive, other than the responsibility to pay income taxes at the lowest permissible rate.
		
	Termination:	  	 During the Term, if the Company terminates Executive’s employment without “Cause” (as defined below) or if Executive
terminates his employment with “Good Reason” (as defined below), then Executive will be entitled to (i) accrued and unpaid salary and benefits (“Accrued Benefits”), (ii) a lump sum payment equal to his Base Salary for the
remaining balance of the Term and (iii) either (x) if such termination occurs prior to the expiration of the Company’s “reliance period” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f)(2) following the IPO, an amount equal to the Target
Bonus for the year of termination or (y) if such termination occurs following the expiration of the reliance period, then an amount equal to Executive’s Annual Bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance results for the full
performance period. Such payments under (ii) and (iii) are subject to Executive’s execution and delivery to the Company within 60 days of the date of termination of a valid release reasonably satisfactory to the Company which has not been
revoked by Executive within any applicable unwaivable revocation period (which release shall not in any event release any rights of Executive hereunder or under any agreement or plan contemplated hereby that by the terms thereof expressly survive
Executive’s termination of employment or by operation of law). The payment of accrued and unpaid salary in (i) shall be paid within ten (10) business days of the termination (unless an earlier date is prescribed by law) and the benefits in (i)
shall be paid or provided in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement, plan or policy. The payment in (ii) shall be paid upon the 60th day following the date of
termination; and the payment in (iii) shall be paid at the time Annual Bonuses for the year of termination are otherwise payable to participants in the applicable Company annual bonus plan.

 
 During the Term, in the event of a termination of employment with the Company by Executive
without “Good Reason,” termination of the employment of Executive with the Company for “Cause,” or Executive’s termination of

  
 3 

			
		 	 employment with the Company as a result of his death or Disability, Executive (or his legal representative) shall only be entitled to the
Accrued Benefits, payable or provided as set forth in the prior paragraph.
  

Executive’s rights under any equity award upon the termination of his employment will be governed by the terms of such award and the applicable plan.

 
 Executive shall have the right to terminate the Term and this Agreement for any
reason.
  
 Sections (ii), (v), (vi) and (vii) under “Miscellaneous,”
“Public Statements,” and “Confidentiality” in this Terms of Employment shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.

		
		 	 “Cause” means (i) an act of fraud, embezzlement, or misappropriation by Executive intended by Executive to result in
substantial personal enrichment at the expense of the Company or (ii) the willful or intentional failure by Executive to materially comply (to the best of his ability) with a specific, written direction of the Board delivered to Executive that
is consistent with normal business practice and not inconsistent with this Agreement and Executive’s responsibilities hereunder, provided that such refusal or failure (x) is not cured to the best of Executive’s ability within ten
(10) business days after the delivery of written notice by the Company of the failure to so comply to Executive or (y) is not based on Executive’s good faith belief, as expressed by written notice to the Board given within such ten
(10) business day period, that the implementation of such direction of the Board would be unlawful or unethical. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have
been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than six-ninths (6/9ths) of the members of the Board, excluding Executive (after reasonable notice to Executive setting forth in reasonable
detail the specific conduct of Executive to be relied upon by the Board in making its determination and an opportunity for Executive to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of the
conduct constituting “Cause” set forth above.
  
 “Good Reason”
means the occurrence of any one of the following: (i) a Change of Control; (ii) any material adverse alteration in Executive’s titles, positions, duties, authorities, reporting relationships or responsibilities with the Company, or
(iii) any material failure by the Company to comply with this Agreement; provided, that in the case of (ii) or (iii), the Company shall have ten (10) business days following Executive’s written notice of his intention to
terminate his employment to cure the circumstances constituting Good Reason so long as such circumstances are curable during such time period.
  

“Change of Control” means the first to occur of any of the following events: (1) any Person who is not a Sponsor becomes the beneficial
owner, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then issued and outstanding securities of the Company or (2) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
business and assets of the Company, whether by sale of assets, merger or otherwise (determined on a consolidated basis) of the Company to another Person other than a transaction in which the survivor or transferee is a Person more than fifty percent
(50%) controlled, directly or indirectly, by a Sponsor.
  

“Disability” means that Executive has been unable to perform the essential functions of his job with or without reasonable accommodation for a
period of one hundred eighty (180) days in any twelve (12) month period as a result of a physical or mental injury or illness. The existence or nonexistence of a physical or mental injury or illness shall be determined by an independent physician
selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive or Executive’s legal representation.
  

“Person” means any individual, partnership, firm, trust, corporation, limited liability company or other similar entity. When two or more
Persons act as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of shares of the Company, such partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or group shall be deemed a
“Person.”

  
 4 

					
		 	 “Sponsor” means Cerberus Capital Management, L.P., Lupert-Adler Partners, Kimco Realty Corporation, Klaff Realty

		 	(ii)	  	The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless with respect to Executive’s employment with and service on any board of directors (or similar governing body or committee) of the Company or its affiliates and with
respect to Executive’s provision of services under this Agreement, to the full extent permitted under applicable law, including an obligation to provide the advancement of expenses in connection therewith. Executive shall have the right to
assume the defense of any third party claim not promptly assumed by the Company, in which case Executive may select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company.
			
		 	(iii)	  	 During the Term, Executive may continue to serve on the boards of directors of other corporations on which he currently serves, as discussed
by Executive with the Board prior to the date hereof. In addition, during the Term, Executive shall not be restricted from serving on other corporate, industry, civic or charitable boards and committees and shall be permitted to make and manage his
personal investments, provided that such activities do not materially interfere with and are not inconsistent with this Agreement or Executive’s performance of his duties hereunder.

 
 Executive shall not have any obligations to the Company or its affiliates with respect to
any corporate opportunities related to such other activities.

			
		 	 (iv)
	  	 The Company and Executive agree to enter into such reasonable amendments to the terms of this Agreement and take such other actions as may be
necessary to avoid the imposition of penalties and additional taxes on Executive under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and under Section 280G of the Code. It is intended that the payments
and benefits under this Agreement be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Any payment
otherwise required to be made hereunder to Executive at any date as a result of the termination of Executive’s employment shall be delayed for such period of time as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the
Code (the “Delay Period”). On the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period, Executive shall be paid, in a single cash lump sum, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all payments delayed pursuant to the
preceding sentence, and any remaining payments not so delayed shall continue to be paid pursuant to the payment schedule set forth herein.

  
 5 

					
		 		  	 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment hereunder of any “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code) upon a termination of employment shall be delayed until such time as Executive has also undergone a “separation from service” as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(h), at which time such nonqualified
deferred compensation shall be paid to Executive when otherwise due as if Executive had undergone such termination of employment (under the same circumstances) on the date of Executive’s ultimate “separation from service.”

 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and
reimbursements provided under this Agreement during any calendar year shall not affect in-kind benefits or reimbursements to be provided in any other calendar year, other than an arrangement providing for the reimbursement of medical expenses
referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by Executive and, if timely
submitted, reimbursement payments shall be promptly made to Executive following such submission, but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall
Executive be entitled to any reimbursement payments after December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This paragraph shall only apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result
in taxable compensation income to Executive.
  
 Whenever a payment under this Agreement
may be paid within a specified period, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. With regard to any installment payments provided for under this Agreement, each installment thereof
shall be deemed a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

			
		 	(v)	  	This letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without reference to principles of conflict of laws.
			
		 	(vi)	  	Each of the parties consents to submit itself to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts located in New York, New York in the event of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
Executive’s services as an employee hereunder and agrees not to commence or maintain any legal proceeding involving any such dispute except in such courts. The Company agrees to reimburse all reasonable legal fees and costs incurred by
Executive in any such dispute if Executive prevails as to one or more of the material issues therein.
			
		 	(vii)	  	The Company shall reimburse Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the retention of counsel in connection with this Agreement.
			
	Public Statements:	 		  	The Company shall give Executive a reasonable opportunity to review and approve any public announcement related to entering into this Agreement or the announcement of Executive’s relationship with the 

  
 6 

			
		  	Company or its affiliates. Following termination of employment for any reason or expiration of the Term, neither the Company on the one hand, or Executive on the other hand, will make any public statements that disparage the
other, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to statements made as part of any governmental, judicial or arbitral proceeding.
		
	Confidentiality	  	During the Term and for a period of 12 months thereafter, Executive shall not be permitted at any time to disclose any confidential information of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Sponsor, unless required by law or an order
of a court or governmental agency with jurisdiction or other legal process. In the event of the breach by Executive of this covenant, the Company shall have the right to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedy available at law or in
equity.
