security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC, the granting of control (to the extent required under Section 4(a) hereof) or by filing an appropriate notice with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or
the United States Copyright Office) or (C) the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations of the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement.

which no claim has been asserted), the Commitments have expired or been terminated and all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (other than Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements with respect

 (g) Issuance or
Acquisition of Equity Interests in Partnerships or Limited Liability Companies. Promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) after the issuance or acquisition thereof, deliver to the Administrative Agent such agreements, documents

 6 

 
to do any act, whereby any material Copyright may become injected into the public domain; (B) notify the Administrative Agent immediately if it knows that any material Copyright may become

country) regarding an Obligor’s ownership of any such Copyright or its validity; (C) take all necessary steps as it shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant
registration) of each material Copyright owned by an Obligor and to maintain each registration of each material Copyright owned by an Obligor including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal where necessary; and (D) promptly notify
the Administrative Agent of any material infringement of any material Copyright of an Obligor of which it becomes aware and take such actions as it shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Copyright, including, where
appropriate, the bringing of suit for infringement, seeking injunctive relief and seeking to recover any and all damages for such infringement.

maintain the same. 
 (vi) Take all reasonable and necessary steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before
the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each

Patent or Trademark included in the Collateral is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party and promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages

5. Authorization to File Financing Statements. Each Obligor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to prepare and file such
financing statements (including continuation statements) or amendments thereof or supplements thereto or other instruments as the Administrative Agent may from time to time deem necessary or appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security
interests granted hereunder in accordance with the UCC (including authorization to describe the Collateral as “all personal property”, “all assets” or words of similar meaning). 

6. Advances. On failure of any Obligor to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein or in any other Loan
Document constituting a Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, perform the same and in so doing may expend such sums as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem advisable in the
performance thereof, including, without limitation, the payment of any insurance premiums with respect to insurance required to be maintained under the Loan Documents, the payment of any taxes required to be paid under the Loan Documents, a payment
to obtain a release of a Lien or potential Lien, in each case other than Permitted Liens, expenditures made in defending against any adverse claim and all other expenditures which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the
protection of the security hereof or which may be compelled to make by operation of Law. All such sums and amounts so expended shall be repayable by the Obligors on a joint and several basis within twenty days of written notice thereof and
written demand therefor (together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation), shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said amounts are expended at the Default Rate. No such performance of
any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Obligor, and no such advance or expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Obligors of any Default or Event of Default. The Administrative Agent may make any payment hereby
authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax
assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by an Obligor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. 

7. Remedies. 

(a) General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the
Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or by Law (including, but not limited to, levy of attachment, garnishment and
the 

  
 8 

 
rights and remedies set forth in the UCC of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (regardless of whether the UCC is the
law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of
others, (i) enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located (to the extent it is within such Obligor’s control to grant access) and, without resistance or interference by the Obligors, take possession of the Collateral,
(ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Obligors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the reasonable expense of the Obligors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the
Administrative Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) without demand and without advertisement,
notice, hearing or process of Law, all of which each of the Obligors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale (which in
the case of a private sale of Pledged Equity, shall be to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution
or resale thereof), at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for Money, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its
sole discretion (subject to any and all legal requirements). Each Obligor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public
sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and, in the case of a sale of Pledged Equity, that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to
delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. Neither the Administrative Agent’s compliance with
applicable Law nor its disclaimer of warranties relating to the Collateral shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Obligor
agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice, specifying the place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made, is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in
accordance with the notice provisions of Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement at least 10 days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. The Administrative Agent may adjourn
any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Obligor further acknowledges and
agrees that any offer to sell any Pledged Equity which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such
offer may be advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (ii) made privately in the manner described above shall be deemed to involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may
not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Administrative Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any holders of the Secured Obligations may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of
the Obligors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the

  
 9 

 
Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by Law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was
postponed, or the Administrative Agent may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place. 
 (b)
Remedies relating to Accounts. Upon the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, (i) each Obligor will promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent instruct all account debtors to
remit all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any Obligor’s rights against its customers and account debtors, and the
Administrative Agent or its designee may notify any Obligor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Obligor have been assigned to the Administrative Agent or of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein, and
may (either in its own name or in the name of an Obligor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for, sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise and give acquittance for any and
all amounts due or to become due on any Account, and, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding to protect and realize upon the security interest of the holders of the Secured Obligations in
the Accounts. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own
convenience and that such Obligor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the holders of the Secured Obligations shall
have any liability or responsibility to any Obligor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be
responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Furthermore, during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a), (f) or (g), (i) of the Credit Agreement the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the Obligors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may require in
connection with such test verifications, (ii) upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the Obligors, the Obligors shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to
the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts and (iii) the Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the
Accounts to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts. 

(c) Deposit Accounts. Without limitation of any other rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents or applicable Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a) or (f) of the Credit Agreement and during continuation thereof, or upon the acceleration of the Obligations under Section 9.02 of the Credit
Agreement, the Administrative Agent may prevent withdrawals or other dispositions of funds in Deposit Accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent. 

(d) Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during
the continuance thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Obligors (to the extent it is within such Obligor’s control to grant access) without cost or charge to the
Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Obligors for the 

  
 10 

 
purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the
Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral. 

(e) Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations
to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other document relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by Law, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations
in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to
the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by Law, neither the Administrative Agent, the holders of
the Secured Obligations, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than
their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which
the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations may have. 
 (f) Retention of Collateral. In
addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable Law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain
the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any
Secured Obligations for any reason. 
 (g) Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or
realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations are legally entitled, the Obligors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon
at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Obligors or to
whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto. 
 8. Rights of the Administrative Agent. 

(a) Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Obligor hereby designates and
appoints the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Obligor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the
following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
 (i) to demand, collect, settle,
compromise, adjust, give discharges and releases, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine; 
 (ii) to
commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof; 

  
 11 

 (iii) to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection
therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably appropriate; 
 (iv) receive, open
and dispose of mail addressed to an Obligor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the
Collateral of such Obligor on behalf of and in the name of such Obligor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral; 
 (v)
sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes; 
 (vi) adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

 (vii) execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements,
security agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may determine necessary in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Agreement and in order
to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated therein; 
 (viii) institute any foreclosure proceedings that the
Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; 
 (ix) to sign and endorse any drafts, assignments, proxies, stock powers,
verifications, notices and other documents relating to the Collateral; 
 (x) to exchange any of the Pledged Equity or other
property upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the issuer thereof and, in connection therewith, deposit any of the Pledged Equity with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other
designated agency upon such terms as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; 
 (xi) to vote for a
shareholder resolution, or to sign an instrument in writing, sanctioning the transfer of any or all of the Pledged Equity into the name of the Administrative Agent or one or more of the holders of the Secured Obligations or into the name of any
transferee to whom the Pledged Equity or any part thereof may be sold pursuant to Section 7 hereof; 
 (xii) to pay or
discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; 

(xiii) to direct any parties liable for any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all
monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; 

  
 12 

 (xiv) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other
amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; and 
 (xv) do and perform all such
other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem to be necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the Collateral. 

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until such time as the Secured Obligations (other than
contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) arising under the Loan Documents have been paid in full, the Commitments have expired or been terminated and all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (other than Letters of Credit
that have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements with respect thereto satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer shall have been made). The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold
the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent
shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral. 

(b) Assignment by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may from time to time assign the Secured
Obligations to a successor Administrative Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and such successor shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement in relation thereto. 

(c) The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe
custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder and as otherwise required by Law, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that
the Obligors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the
Obligors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment required by Law and substantially equal to that
which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking
any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for (i)
ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (ii) taking
any steps to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. 
 (d) Liability with Respect to
Accounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Obligors shall remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in
accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Account. Neither 

  
 13 

 
the Administrative Agent nor any holder of Secured Obligations shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this
Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations be obligated in any manner to
perform any of the obligations of an Obligor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency
of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to
which it may be entitled at any time or times. 
 (e) Voting and Payment Rights in Respect of the Pledged Equity.

 (i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided
the Borrower and the applicable Obligor written notice, each Obligor may (A) exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Equity of such Obligor or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the
terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement and (B) receive and retain any and all dividends (other than stock dividends and other dividends constituting Collateral which are addressed hereinabove), principal or interest paid in respect of
the Pledged Equity to the extent they are allowed under the Credit Agreement; and 
 (ii) Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided the Borrower and the applicable Obligor written notice, (A) all rights of an Obligor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would
otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to clause (i)(A) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, (B)
all rights of an Obligor to receive the dividends, principal and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the
Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such dividends, principal and interest payments, and (C) all dividends, principal and interest payments which are received by an Obligor contrary to the
provisions of clause (ii)(B) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Obligor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Collateral
in the exact form received, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations. 

(f) Releases of Collateral. (i) If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any
Obligor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Lien of the Administrative Agent therein shall be automatically released and the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Obligor, shall promptly execute and
deliver to such Obligor all releases (or evidence thereof) and other documents (including subordination agreements acceptable to the Administrative Agent, if applicable), and take such other action, reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens
created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral. (ii) The Administrative Agent may release any of the Pledged Equity from this Agreement or may substitute any of the Pledged Equity for other Pledged

  
 14 

 
Equity without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Agreement as to any Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted,
and this Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien on all Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted. 
 9. Application
of Proceeds. Upon the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent
or any holder of the Secured Obligations in Money, will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement. 

10. Continuing Agreement. 

(a) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Secured Obligations (other than contingent
obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been paid in full, the Commitments have expired or been terminated and all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (other than Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or as to
which other arrangements with respect thereto satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer shall have been made), at which time this Agreement shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and
at the expense of the Obligors, forthwith release all of its liens and security interests hereunder and shall execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Obligors evidencing such termination.

 (b) This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any
Debtor Relief Law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including without
limitation any reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured Obligations.

 11. Amendments; Waivers; Modifications, etc. This Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified,
changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any update or revision to Schedule 2(c) hereof delivered by any Obligor shall not constitute an amendment
for purposes of this Section 11 or Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
 12. Successors in
Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Obligor, its successors and assigns and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations hereunder, to the benefit
of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations and their successors and permitted assigns. 
 13.
Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in conformance with Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which where so executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the 

  
 15 

 
same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Delivery of executed counterparts of this
Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as an original. 
 15. Headings. The headings of the
sections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 

16. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The terms of Sections 11.14 and 11.15 of
the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms. 

17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall
be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. 

18. Entirety. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent the
entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, any other documents relating to
the Secured Obligations, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein. 
 19. Other Security. To the extent that any of the
Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real property and securities owned by an Obligor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the
Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which
rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations
or any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Agreement, under any other of the Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations. 

20. Joinder. At any time after the date of this Agreement, one or more additional Persons may become party hereto by executing and
delivering to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement. Immediately upon such execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement (and without any further action), each such additional Person will become a party to this Agreement as an
“Obligor” and have all of the rights and obligations of an Obligor hereunder and this Agreement and the schedules hereto shall be deemed amended by such Joinder Agreement. 

21. Rights of Required Lenders. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, if not exercised by the Administrative Agent,
may be exercised by the Required Lenders if: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent has refused to exercise any rights hereunder at
the direction of the Required Lenders; or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent has resigned pursuant to Section 10.06 of the
Credit Agreement and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. 

  
 16 

 22. Consent of Issuers of Pledged Equity. Each issuer of Pledged Equity party to this
Agreement hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees to the grant of the security interests in such Pledged Equity by the applicable Obligors pursuant to this Agreement, together with all rights accompanying such security interest as provided by this
Agreement and applicable Law, notwithstanding any anti-assignment provisions in any operating agreement, limited partnership agreement or similar organizational or governance documents of such issuer.

September     , 2016 
 Agrium Inc. 

13131 Lake Fraser Drive S.E. 
 Calgary, AB, Canada 

T2J 7E8 
 Dear Sirs/Madams: 

 

	Re:	Voting and Support Agreement 

 I, the individual whose name is set forth on the signature page attached
to this Agreement, understand that Agrium Inc. (“you” or “Agrium”) and Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. (the “Corporation”) wish to enter into an arrangement agreement dated as of the date
hereof (the “Arrangement Agreement”) contemplating an arrangement (the “Arrangement”) of the Corporation and Agrium pursuant to Section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, which will result in the
current common shareholders of the Corporation and Agrium becoming shareholders of a newly-formed parent holding company (“New Parent”) and the Corporation and Agrium becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of New Parent. I am, or one of
my affiliates or associates is, the registered or beneficial owner of such number of common shares (the “Holder Shares”) and other rights (together with the Holder Shares, the “Holder Securities”) to acquire common
shares in the capital of the Corporation as set forth on the signature page attached to this Agreement. 
 I hereby agree, solely in my capacity as
securityholder and not in my capacity as an officer or director of the Corporation: 
  

	 	(a)	to vote or to cause to be voted the Holder Securities, and any other securities of the Corporation directly or indirectly acquired by or issued to the undersigned after the date hereof (including without limitation any
common shares issued upon further exercise of options or other rights to purchase common shares), if any, in favour of the Arrangement and any other matter necessary for the completion of the Arrangement (including in favour of all matters
recommended by management of the Corporation) at the meeting of shareholders of the Corporation held to consider it or any adjournment thereof (the “Meeting”); 

 

	 	(b)	if requested by you, acting reasonably, to deliver or to cause to be delivered to the Corporation duly executed proxies or voting instruction forms voting in favour of the Arrangement (with copies to you); and

  

	 	(c)	not to exercise any rights of dissent in connection with the Arrangement. 

 Notwithstanding any provision of
this letter agreement to the contrary, you hereby agree and acknowledge that I am executing this letter agreement and am bound hereunder solely in my capacity as a securityholder of the Corporation. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or
affect any actions I may take in my capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation or limit or restrict in any way the exercise of my fiduciary duties as director or officer of the Corporation including, without limitation, responding in my
capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation to an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) and making any determinations in that regard in the exercise of my fiduciary duties, subject to compliance with the terms of
the Arrangement Agreement. 
 I hereby represent and warrant that (a) I am, or one of my affiliates or associates is, the sole registered and/or
beneficial owner of the Holder Securities, with good and marketable title thereto free of any and all encumbrances and demands of any nature or kind whatsoever, and I have the sole right to vote (in the case of Holder Shares) and sell (in the case
of transferable Holder Securities) all of the Holder Securities, 

 
(b) except for the Arrangement Agreement and this letter agreement, no person has any agreement or option, or any right or privilege (whether by law, pre emptive or contractual) capable of
becoming an agreement or option for the purchase, acquisition or transfer from the undersigned or the applicable holder of any of the Holder Securities or any interest therein or right thereto, and (c) the only securities of the Corporation
beneficially owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by the undersigned on the date hereof are the Holder Securities (other than securities that are not entitled to acquire common shares in the capital of the Corporation). 

For greater certainty, nothing in this Agreement will prohibit the undersigned holder from, directly or indirectly, selling, transferring, pledging or
assigning or agreeing to sell, transfer, pledge or assign any of the Holder Securities or any interest therein, following the Meeting. 
 This Agreement
shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the earlier of (a) the termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) the board of directors of the Corporation recommending a Superior Proposal (as defined
in the Arrangement Agreement) and/or causing the Corporation to accept, approve or enter into a Permitted Acquisition Agreement (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) in respect of a Superior Proposal, (c) the amendment of the Arrangement
Agreement in any manner adverse to the undersigned, (d) the Outside Date (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) and (e) either Agrium or the Corporation providing notice to the other of termination of the Arrangement Agreement
regardless of the validity or effectiveness of such notice or any disputes with respect thereto. 
 This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein, and the parties hereto irrevocably attorn to the jurisdiction of the Ontario courts situated in the City of Toronto and waive objection to the venue of
any proceeding in such court or that such court provides an inconvenient forum. This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including counterparts by facsimile or electronic copy) and all such counterparts taken together
shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. 
 If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding and is agreed to by you, please
signify your acceptance by executing the enclosed copies of this letter where indicated below and returning the same to the undersigned, upon which this letter as so accepted shall constitute an agreement among us.
