Moody’s Rating is Ba1 or better and the Borrower’s S&P Rating is BB+ or better.1 
  
 “Level III Status” exists at any date if, on such date, (i) the

 ARTICLE VI 
  
 WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

 ARTICLE VIII 
  
 GENERAL
PROVISIONS 
  
 8.1. Notice of Disposition of Collateral;
Condition of Collateral. Any notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Pledgor,
addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise
prepare the Collateral for sale. 
  
 8.2. Compromises and
Collection of Collateral. The Pledgor and the Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become
uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, the
Pledgor agrees that the Agent may at any time and from time to time, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Agent in its sole discretion
shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action. 
  
 8.3. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having
any obligation to do so, the Agent may perform or pay any obligation which the Pledgor has agreed to perform or pay in this Security Agreement if the Pledgor has failed to so perform or pay after notice of such failure from the Agent (unless the
Agent is legally prohibited from sending any such notice to the Pledgor) and the Pledgor shall reimburse the Agent for any amounts paid by the Agent pursuant to this Section 8.3. The Pledgor’s obligation to reimburse the Agent pursuant to the
preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand. 
  
 8.4. Authorization for Secured Party to Take Certain Action. The Pledgor irrevocably authorizes the Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Agent and appoints the Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to
execute on behalf of the Pledgor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral,
(ii) to indorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any
other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and
priority of the Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, (iv) subject to the terms of Section 4.1.5, to enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Agent or the Pledgor, (v) at the times specified in Section 7.4, to apply the
proceeds of any Collateral received by the Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 7.4 and (vi) to discharge past due taxes, 
  

 - 12 - 

 assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted hereunder),
and the Pledgor agrees to reimburse the Agent on demand for any payment made or any expense reasonably incurred by the Agent in connection therewith, provided that this authorization shall not relieve the Pledgor of any of its obligations
under this Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1.5, 4.1.6, 4.4, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII will cause irreparable injury to the
Agent and the Lenders, that the Agent and Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Agent or the Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of
the Pledgor contained in this Security Agreement, that the covenants of the Pledgor contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor. 
  
 8.6. Use and Possession of Certain Premises. Upon the occurrence of a
Default, the Agent shall be entitled to occupy and use any premises owned or leased by the Pledgor where any of the Collateral or any records relating to the Collateral are located until the Secured Obligations are paid or the Collateral is removed
therefrom, whichever first occurs, without any obligation to pay the Pledgor for such use and occupancy. 
  
 8.7. Dispositions Not Authorized. Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.1.5, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral
(except as set forth in Section 4.1.5) shall be binding upon the Agent or the Lenders unless such authorization is in writing signed by the Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Lenders. 
  
 8.8. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Security
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Pledgor, the Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Security Agreement), except that the Pledgor
shall not have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Agent. 
  
 8.9. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Pledgor contained in this Security
Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement. 
  
 8.10. Taxes and Expenses. Any taxes (including income taxes) payable or ruled payable by Federal or State authority in respect of this Security Agreement shall be paid by the Pledgor, together with interest and
penalties, if any. The Pledgor shall reimburse the Agent for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and internal charges (including reasonable attorneys’, auditors’ and accountants’ fees and reasonable time charges of
attorneys, paralegals, auditors and accountants who may be employees of the Agent) paid or incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, collection and enforcement of this Security Agreement and in
the audit, analysis, administration, collection, preservation or sale of the Collateral (including the expenses and charges associated with any periodic or special audit of the Collateral). Any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Pledgor in
the performance of actions required pursuant to the terms hereof shall be borne solely by the Pledgor. 
  

 - 13 - 

 8.11. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Security Agreement are for convenience
of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Security Agreement. 
  
 8.12. Termination. This Security Agreement shall continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Secured
Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms and (ii) all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and no commitments of the Agent or the Lenders which would
give rise to any Secured Obligations are outstanding. 
  
 8.13.
Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Pledgor and the Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Pledgor and the Agent
relating to the Collateral. 
  
 8.14. CHOICE OF LAW.
THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS) OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS. 
  
 8.15. Distribution of Reports. Subject to the provisions of Section
9.11 of the Credit Agreement, the Pledgor authorizes the Agent, as the Agent may elect in its sole discretion, to discuss with and furnish to its affiliates and to the Lenders or to any other person or entity having an interest in the Secured
Obligations (whether as a guarantor, pledgor of collateral, participant or otherwise) all financial statements, audit reports and other information pertaining to the Pledgor and its Subsidiaries whether such information was provided by the Pledgor
or prepared or obtained by the Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of its employees, officers, directors or agents makes any representation or warranty regarding any audit reports or other analyses of the Pledgor’s and its Subsidiaries’
condition which the Agent may in its sole discretion prepare and elect to distribute, nor shall the Agent or any of its employees, officers, directors or agents be liable to any person or entity receiving a copy of such reports or analyses for any
inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating thereto. 
  
 8.16.
Indemnity. The Pledgor hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, assigns, agents and employees, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs, and expenses of any kind
and nature (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Lenders, or their respective
successors, assigns, agents and employees, in any way relating to or arising out of this Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or
other disposition of any Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Agent or the Lenders or the Pledgor, and any claim for patent, trademark or copyright infringement). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the foregoing indemnity is subject to the same limitations as the Borrower’s indemnity obligations set forth in Section 9.6(ii) of the Credit Agreement.
