 ARTICLE II 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

SECTION 2.1 Piggyback Rights. 

(a) If at any time following expiration of the Lockup Period (or, if earlier, such time as any Holder exercises a demand right pursuant to
Section 2.2(a)) the Company proposes to register Securities for public sale (whether proposed to be offered for sale by the Company or by any other Person) under the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes) in a manner which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public
under the Securities Act, it will, at each such time following expiration of the Lockup Period (or if earlier, such time as any Holder exercises a demand right pursuant to Section 2.2(a)), give prompt written notice (which notice shall specify
the intended method or methods of disposition) to the Holders of its intention to do so and of such Holder’s rights under this Section 2.1. Upon the written request of any Holder made within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of any
such notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder), the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities which the Holders have so requested to be registered; provided that: (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement
filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration of the Securities to be sold by it, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to
the Holders and, thereupon, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith)
without prejudice to the rights of any Holder to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 2.2(a); and (ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of Registrable Securities
requesting to be included in the registration must, upon the written request of the Company, sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters on the same terms and conditions as apply to the other Securities being sold through underwriters
under such registration, with, in the case of a combined primary and secondary offering, only such differences, including any with respect to representations and warranties, indemnification and liability insurance, as may be customary or appropriate
in combined primary and secondary offerings. 

  
 -5- 

 (b) Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each
registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 2.1. 
 (c) Priority in Piggyback Registrations. If a
registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (a copy of which shall be provided to the Holders) that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable
Securities and other Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be likely to have a material and adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Securities
offered in such offering, then the Company will include in such registration: (i) first, the Securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account; and (ii) second, such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in
such registration which, in the opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the material and adverse effect referred to above, which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all such requesting
Holders of Registrable Securities on the basis of the relative number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each such Holder. Any other selling holders of the Company’s Securities (other than transferees to whom a
Holder has assigned its rights under this Agreement) will be included in an underwritten offering only with the consent of Holders holding a majority of the shares being sold in such offering. 

(d) Excluded Transactions. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this
Section 2.1 incidental to the registration of any of its Securities in connection with: 
 (i) the IPO; 

(ii) a registration statement filed to cover issuances under employee benefits plans or dividend reinvestment plans; or 

(iii) any registration statement relating solely to the acquisition or merger after the date hereof by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries of or with any other businesses. 
 (e) Plan of Distribution, Underwriters and Counsel. If a registration pursuant
to this Section 2.1 involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such underwritten offering shall have the right to (i) determine the plan of distribution, (ii) select the
investment banker or bankers and managers to administer the offering, including the lead managing underwriter (provided that such investment banker or bankers and managers shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) and (iii) select
counsel for the selling Holders. 
 (f) Shelf Takedowns. In connection with any shelf takedown (whether pursuant to
Section 2.2(f) or at the initiative of the Company), the Holders may exercise “piggyback” rights in the manner described in this Agreement to have included in such takedown Registrable Securities held by them that are registered on
such shelf registration statement. 

  
 -6- 

 SECTION 2.2 Demand Registration. 

(a) General. At any time, upon the written request of any Holder (the “Demand Party”) requesting that the Company
effect the registration under the Securities Act of Registrable Securities and specifying the amount and intended method of disposition thereof (including, but not limited to, an underwritten public offering), the Company will (i) promptly give
written notice of such requested registration to the other Holders and other holders of Securities entitled to notice of such registration, if any, and (ii) as expeditiously as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration
statement to effect the registration under the Securities Act of: 
 (i) such Registrable Securities which the Company has
been so requested to register by the Demand Party in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof; and 
 (ii)
the Registrable Securities of other Holders which the Company has been requested to register by written request given to the Company within fifteen (15) days after the giving of such written notice by the Company. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to file a registration statement relating to any registration request under this
Section 2.2(a): 
 (x) within a period of one hundred eighty (180) days (or such lesser period as the managing
underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the date of the final prospectus relating to any registration request under this Section 2.2(a) or relating to any registration referred to in Section 2.1; or 

(y) if, in the good faith judgment of a majority of the disinterested members of the Board, the Company is in possession of
material non-public information the disclosure of which would be materially adverse to the Company and would not otherwise be required under Law, in which case the filing of the registration statement may be delayed until the earlier of the second
Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and the 60th day after receipt by the Company of the written request from a Demand Party to register Registrable Securities under this Section 2.2(a); provided that the
Company shall not effect such a delay more than two times in any twelve (12) month period. 
 (b) Form. Each registration
statement prepared at the request of a Demand Party shall be effected on such form as reasonably requested by the Demand Party, including by a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act on a Form S-3 (or any successor rule or
form thereto) if so requested by the Demand Party and if the Company is then eligible to effect a shelf registration and use such form for such disposition. 

(c) Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested
pursuant to this Section 2.2. 
 (d) Plan of Distribution, Underwriters and Counsel. If a requested registration pursuant to
this Section 2.2 involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such underwritten offering shall have the right to (i) determine the plan of distribution, (ii) select the
investment banker or bankers and managers to administer 

  
 -7- 

 
the offering, including the lead managing underwriter (provided that such investment banker or bankers and managers shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) and (iii) select counsel
for the selling Holders. 
 (e) Priority in Demand Registrations. If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 2.2
involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (a copy of which shall be provided to the Holders) that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration
(including Securities of the Company which are not Registrable Securities) exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be likely to have a material and adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Securities offered
in such offering, then the number of such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be allocated pro rata among the Demand Party and all other parties that have requested that their Registrable Securities be sold
pursuant to Section 2.1(a), if any, on the basis of the relative number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each such Holder. Any other selling holders of the Company’s Securities (other than transferees to whom
a Holder has assigned its rights under this Agreement) will be included in an underwritten offering only with the consent of Holders holding a majority of the shares being sold in such offering. 

(f) Shelf Takedowns. Upon the written request of the Demand Party at any time and from time to time, the Company will facilitate in the
manner described in this Agreement a “takedown” of the Demand Party’s Registrable Securities off of an effective shelf registration statement. Upon the written request of the Demand Party, the Company will file and seek the
effectiveness of a post-effective amendment to an existing shelf registration statement or a prospectus supplement in order to register up to the number of the Demand Party’s Registrable Securities previously taken down off of such shelf by the
Demand Party and not yet “reloaded” onto such shelf registration statement. 
 (g) Additional Rights. Except as expressly
provided in this Agreement, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request or require the Company to register any equity Securities of the Company, or any Securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for or into such
Securities, or amend any grant of such a right, without the prior written consent of the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities subject to this Agreement. In the event the Company engages in a merger or consolidation in which the
shares of Common Stock are converted into Securities of another company, appropriate arrangements will be made so that the registration rights provided under this Agreement continue to be provided to Holders by the issuer of such Securities. To the
extent such new issuer, or any other company acquired by the Company in a merger or consolidation, was bound by registration rights that would conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to modify
any such “inherited” registration rights so as not to interfere in any material respects with the rights provided under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by Holders then holding a majority of Registrable Securities. 

  
 -8- 

 SECTION 2.3 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required to file a
registration statement with respect to, or to use its reasonable best efforts to effect or cause the registration of, any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Agreement, the Company will as expeditiously as possible:

 (a) promptly prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form with respect to such Registrable Securities
and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided, however, that the Company may discontinue any registration of Securities which it has initiated for its own account at any time
prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto (and, in such event, the Company shall pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith); and provided, further, that before filing a registration
statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will (i) furnish to counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which
documents will be subject to the review of such counsel, (ii) fairly consider such reasonable changes in any such documents prior to or after the filing thereof as the counsel to the sellers of Registrable Securities being sold may request, and
(iii) make such of the representatives of the Company as shall be reasonably requested by the sellers of the Registrable Securities being sold available for discussion of such documents; 

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period not in excess of two (2) years (which period shall not be applicable in the case of a shelf registration effected pursuant to a request under
Section 2.2(b)) and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will (i) furnish to counsel
for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such counsel, (ii) fairly consider such reasonable changes in any
such documents prior to or after the filing thereof as the counsel to the sellers of Registrable Securities being sold may request, and (iii) make such of the representatives of the Company as shall be reasonably requested by the sellers of the
Registrable Securities being sold available for discussion of such documents;

included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate
the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller; 
 (d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
Securities covered by such registration in such jurisdictions as each seller shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller; 
 (e) use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable

 (f) notify each seller of any such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement,
at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the Company’s becoming aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and furnish to
such seller a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; 

(g) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its

Securities Act;

Securities of the Company are then listed if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to provide a transfer agent and
registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; 

(i) enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form), which may include indemnification provisions
in favor of underwriters and other Persons in addition to, or in substitution for the indemnification provisions hereof, and take such other actions as sellers of a majority of such Registrable Securities or the underwriters, if any, reasonably
request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

additional information; and (iv) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, or of the suspension of the

(o) if requested by the managing underwriter or agent or any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement, promptly

the number of Registrable Securities being sold by such Holder to such underwriter or agent, the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriter or agent and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable
Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters incorporated in such

SECTION 2.4 Other Registration-Related Matters. 

(a) The Company may require any Person that is Transferring Securities in a Public Offering pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 to furnish to the
Company in writing such information regarding such Person and pertinent to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of the Registrable Securities which are included in such Public Offering as the Company may from
time to time reasonably request in writing. 
 (b) Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of
any event of the kind described in Section 2.3(f), it will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until its receipt of the copies of the amended or
supplemented prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3(f) and, if so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company or destroy (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in their possession,
of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company gives any such notice, the period for which the Company will be required to keep the registration statement effective will
be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 2.3(f) to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement
has received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3(f). 
 (c) Each Holder agrees that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3(l)(iv), it will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such
Registrable Securities until the lifting of such stop order, other order or suspension or the termination of such proceedings and, if so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company or destroy (at the Company’s expense) all
copies, other than permanent file copies then in its possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company gives any such notice, the period for which the Company
will be required to keep the registration statement effective will be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 2.3(l)(iv) to and including the date when such
stop order, other order or suspension is lifted or such proceedings are terminated. 
 (d)(i) Each Holder (x) hereby agrees, with
respect to the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder, to be bound by any and all restrictions on the sale, disposition, distribution, hedging or other Transfer of any interest in Registrable Securities imposed on Blackstone and/or its
Affiliates in connection with the IPO by the underwriters managing such offering for the duration of the term of such restriction (the period in which such sale, 

  
 -12- 

 
disposition, distribution, hedging or other Transfer of any interest is restricted, the “Lockup Period”) and (y) will, in connection with a Public Offering of the
Company’s equity Securities (whether for the Company’s account or for the account of any Holder or Holders, or both), upon the request of the Company or of the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s
Securities, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution of Registrable Securities (other than those included in the Public Offering) without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter for such period of time
commencing seven (7) days before and ending one hundred eighty (180) days (or such earlier date as the managing underwriter shall agree) after the date of the final prospectus relating to such offering; provided that the Company
shall cause all directors and executive officers of the Company, Holders of more than 5% of the Registrable Securities and all other Persons with registration rights with respect to the Company’s Securities (whether or not pursuant to this
Agreement) to enter into agreements similar to those contained in this Section 2.4(d)(i) (without regard to this proviso); and (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries will, in connection with an underwritten Public Offering of the
Company’s Securities in respect of which Registrable Securities are included, upon the request of the underwriters managing such offering, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution of equity Securities of the Company
(other than those included in such Public Offering, offered pursuant to Section 2.2(f), offered on Form S-8, issuable upon conversion of Securities or upon the exercise of options, or the grant of options in the ordinary course of business
pursuant to then-existing management equity plans or equity-based employee benefit plans, in each case outstanding on the date a notice is given by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or a request is made pursuant to Section 2.2(a), as
the case may be), without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, for such period of time commencing seven (7) days before and ending one hundred eighty (180) days (or such earlier date as the managing underwriter shall
agree) after the date of the final prospectus relating to such sale. 
 (e) With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules
and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of Securities of the Company to the public without registration after such time as a public market exists for Registrable Securities, the Company agrees: 

(i) to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its Securities to the public; 

(ii) to use its commercially reasonable efforts to then file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and 

(iii) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to such Holder promptly upon request: (A) a written
statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its Securities to
the public), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting 

  
 -13- 

 
requirements); (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and (C) such other reports and documents of the Company as such Holder may reasonably request in
availing itself or himself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing such Holder to sell any such Securities without registration. 

(f) Counsel to represent Holders of Registrable Securities shall be selected by the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable
Securities included in the relevant registration. 
 (g) Each of the parties hereto agrees that the registration rights provided to the
Holders herein are not intended to, and shall not be deemed to, override or limit any other restrictions on Transfer to which any such Holder may otherwise be subject. 

ARTICLE III 

INDEMNIFICATION 
 SECTION
3.1 Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any registration of any Securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless, to the fullest
extent permitted by Law, each Holder who sells Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, each Affiliate of such Holder and their respective directors and officers or general and limited partners (and the directors, officers,
employees, Affiliates and controlling Persons of any of the foregoing), each other Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such Securities and each other Person, if any, who controls such Holder or any such underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, and “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and reasonable and
documented expenses to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such
Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon: (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Securities were registered under the
Securities Act, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the shares
of Common Stock (each such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives (other than any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 134 under the Securities Act) an
“Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by
reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or related document or report; (b) any omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances when they were made; or (c) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in connection with any such registration,
disclosure document or related document or report, and 

  
 -14- 

 
the Company will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action
or proceeding; provided that the Company will not be liable to any Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information with respect to such Indemnified Party furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any Indemnified Party and will survive the Transfer of such Securities by such Holder or any termination of this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.2 Indemnification by the Holders and Underwriters. The Company may require, as a condition to including any Registrable
Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Section 2.1 or 2.2, that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the Holder of such Registrable Securities or any prospective
underwriter to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 3.1) the Company, all other Holders or any prospective underwriter, as the case may be, and any of their respective Affiliates,
directors, officers and controlling Persons, with respect to any untrue statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer
information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement, if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect
to such Holder or underwriter furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated
by reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Holders, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or
controlling Persons and will survive the Transfer of such Securities by such Holder. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds actually
received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
 SECTION 3.3
Notices of Claims, Etc. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Article III,
such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as
provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under Section 3.1 or 3.2, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought
against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel 

  
 -15- 

 
selected by the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the relevant registration, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation. If, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, having common counsel would result in a conflict of interest between the interests of such indemnified and indemnifying parties, then such Indemnified Party may employ separate
counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party to represent or defend such Indemnified Party in such action, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party will not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such Indemnified Parties (and not more than one separate firm of local counsel at any time for all such Indemnified Parties) in such action. No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. 

SECTION 3.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for hereunder from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an Indemnified
Party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein for reasons other than those described in the proviso in the first sentence of Section 3.1, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying
party and Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or Indemnified Parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or
payable by a party under this Section 3.4 as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with
any investigation or proceeding. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable
Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation. 
 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 3.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

SECTION 3.5 Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that specified in this Article III (with appropriate modifications) shall
be given by the Company and each seller of Registrable Securities with respect to any required registration or other qualification of Securities under any Law or with any Governmental Authority other than as required by the Securities Act. 

  
 -16- 

 SECTION 3.6 Non-Exclusivity. The obligations of the parties under this Article III will be
in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party. 
 ARTICLE IV  

OTHER 
 SECTION 4.1
Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party hereto to another party hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally, (b) five (5) Business

permitted assigns. 
 SECTION 4.3 Amendments; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified only by a

interests of any Holder hereunder disproportionately to other Holders without the written consent 

  
 -17- 

 
of such Holder. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof will be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the party so waiving. Except as provided in the
preceding sentence, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, will be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any covenants or
agreements contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. 

SECTION 4.4 Third Parties. This Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any person that is not a party
hereto nor create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto. 
 SECTION 4.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by,
and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 SECTION 4.6 Jurisdiction. The Delaware Court of
Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) shall have

exclusive jurisdiction of those courts, including but not limited to the in personam and subject matter jurisdiction of those courts, waives any objections to such jurisdiction on the grounds of venue or forum non conveniens, the
absence of in personam or subject matter jurisdiction and any similar grounds, consents to service of process by mail (in accordance with the notice provisions of this Agreement) or any other manner permitted by Law, and irrevocably agrees to
be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement.

HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. 

SECTION 4.8 Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach of this Agreement
by any of them, the non-breaching party would be irreparably harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. Each party accordingly agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and
that the parties, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of this Agreement. 

SECTION 4.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof. There are no agreements, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those expressly set forth herein. This Agreement supersedes all other prior agreements and
understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

clause, phrase or sentence in every other respect and of the remaining provisions, paragraphs, words, clauses, phrases or sentences hereof shall not be in any way impaired, it being intended that all rights, powers and privileges of the parties
hereto shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law. 
 SECTION 4.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which together will be deemed to be one and the same instrument.

Purchase Price at the Closing in an amount equal to all such amounts to the extent not held by the Designated Companies (and, therefore, Seller shall have the right to retain any amounts relating to such items on deposit in Seller’s accounts).
All prepaid amounts under the Booking Deposits for which Buyer has received credit as of the Cut-Off Time shall be the obligation of Buyer after the Closing. 

SECTION 9.10. Sales, General Excise, Room and Occupancy Taxes. Seller shall pay all sales taxes, general excise taxes and room
occupancy, hotel, resort, and use taxes due and payable with respect to the Properties for the period prior to the Cut-Off Time, and Buyer shall pay all sales taxes, general excise taxes, room occupancy, hotel, resort, and use taxes due and payable
with respect to the Properties for the periods on and after the Cut-Off Time (except as provided in Section 8.1). Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of all sales taxes, general excise
taxes, room occupancy and use taxes due and payable with respect to the Properties for the night commencing prior to and ending on the day on which the Cut-Off Time occurs (except as provided in Section 8.1). Seller shall be entitled to receive
any rebates or refunds on such taxes paid by Seller prior to Closing. 
 SECTION 9.11. Fixed Rents and Additional Rents. 

(a) Fixed rents (collectively, “Fixed Rents”) and Additional Rents (as hereinafter defined; Fixed Rents and
Additional Rents being together referred to herein as “Rents”) paid or payable by tenants under the Space Leases in connection with their occupancy of the Properties shall be adjusted and prorated on an if, as and when collected
basis. Any Rents collected by Buyer or Seller after the Closing from any tenant who owes Rents for periods prior to the Closing, shall be applied (i) first, in payment of Rents owed by such tenant for the month in which the Closing occurs,
(ii) second, in payment of current Rents at the time of receipt, (iii) third, to delinquent Rents, if any, which became due after the Closing and (iv) fourth, then to delinquent Rents, if any, which became due prior to the Closing.
Each such amount, less any costs of collection (including reasonable counsel fees) reasonably allocable thereto, shall be adjusted and prorated as provided above, and the party who receives such amount shall promptly pay over to the other party the
portion thereof to which it is so entitled. For the purposes of this provision, the term “Additional Rent” shall mean amounts payable under any Space Lease for (i) the payment of additional rent based upon a percentage of the
tenant’s business during a specified annual or other period (sometimes referred to as “percentage rent”), (ii) so-called common area maintenance or “CAM” charges,
(iii) so-called “escalation rent” or additional rent based upon increases in real estate taxes or operating expenses or labor costs or cost of living or porter’s wages or otherwise
and (iv) any general excise taxes collected from the tenants. 
 (b) Buyer shall bill tenants who owe Rents for periods
prior to the Closing on a monthly basis following the Closing, but shall not be obligated to take any other action to collect such Rents or to engage a collection agency or take legal action to collect such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Buyer shall be unable to collect such past due 

  
 25 

 
Rents and any such tenant is no longer at the Properties, Seller shall have the right to pursue such tenant to collect such delinquencies (including, without limitation, the prosecution of one or
more lawsuits, but Seller shall not take any action to evict any such tenant or terminate any such Space Lease). Seller shall furnish to Buyer all information relating to the period prior to the Closing that is reasonably necessary for the billing
of such Rent and Buyer will deliver to Seller, concurrently with the delivery to tenants, copies of all statements relating to Rent for a period prior to the Closing. Buyer shall bill tenants for Rents for accounting periods prior to the Closing in
accordance with and on the basis of such information furnished by Seller. The obligations of Buyer under this paragraph (b) shall survive for three months after Closing. 

(c) To the extent that any portion of Additional Rent is required to be paid monthly by tenants on account of estimated amounts
for any calendar year (or, if applicable, any lease year or tax year or any other applicable accounting period), and at the end of such calendar year (or lease year, tax year or other applicable accounting period, as the case may be), such estimated
amounts are to be recalculated based upon the actual expenses, taxes and other relevant factors for that calendar (lease or tax) year or other applicable accounting period, with the appropriate adjustments being made with such tenants, then such
portion of the Additional Rent shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer at the Closing based on such estimated payments actually paid by tenants (i.e., with Seller entitled to provisionally retain all monthly or other periodic installments of such
amounts paid by tenants with respect to periods prior to the calendar month or other applicable installment period in which the Closing occurs (on a pro-rata basis for any partial months), Seller to pay to Buyer at the Closing all monthly or other
periodic installments of such amounts theretofore received by Seller with respect to periods following the calendar month or other applicable installment period in which the Closing occurs and Seller and Buyer to apportion as of the Closing all
monthly or other periodic installments of such amounts paid by tenants with respect to the calendar month or other applicable installment period in which the Closing occurs). At the time(s) of final calculation and collection from (or refund to)
each tenant of the amounts in reconciliation of actual Additional Rent for a period for which estimated amounts paid by such tenant have been prorated, there shall be a re-proration between Seller and Buyer in
accordance with paragraph (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 9.11. 
 (d) Until the sooner of (x) three
months after Closing and (y) such time as all amounts required to be paid to Seller by Buyer pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall have been paid in full, Buyer shall furnish to Seller, upon Seller’s reasonable request, a reporting of
rents which have been collected by Buyer after the Closing with respect to Space Leases with delinquent Rents as of the Closing. 
 SECTION
9.12. Contracts. Charges and payments under all Contracts shall be adjusted and prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing. There shall be no proration as of the Closing for any management agreements for the Properties with LQ
Management L.L.C.; provided, however, any accrued and unpaid amounts under such management agreements from January 1, 2014 through the Closing shall be subject to the reproration provisions of Section 9.15. 

SECTION 9.13. Ground Rent. All rent and other payments and charges due under the Ground Leases with respect to the year in which
the Closing occurs shall be adjusted and prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing. 

  
 26 

 SECTION 9.14. Other. If applicable, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted at Closing
to reflect the adjustment of any other item which, under the explicit terms of this Agreement, is to be apportioned at Closing. Any other items of operating income or operating expense that are customarily apportioned between the parties in real
estate closings of comparable commercial properties in the metropolitan area where such Property is located, shall be prorated as applicable. 

SECTION 9.15. Re-Adjustment. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Article IX shall prove to be incorrect
for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same. Any item that cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information, shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available
and reprorated when the information is available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all reprorations contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed within one year after Closing (subject to extension solely as necessary
due to the unavailability of final information but in no event to exceed two years after Closing). The obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Article IX shall survive the Closing for two years. 

ARTICLE X

 SECTION 10.2. Indemnification by Buyer. Following the Closing and subject to
Sections 10.3 and 10.4, Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller, its members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, “Seller-Related Entities”)

contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document. 

  
 27 

 SECTION 10.3. Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of Section 10.1, solely with respect to the indemnification obligation of Seller set forth in Section 10.1(c) and the indemnification obligations of Buyer set forth in Section 10.2, (a) Seller or Buyer, as applicable,
shall not be required to indemnify Buyer or any Buyer-Related Entities or Seller or any Seller-Related Entities, as applicable, under this Agreement unless the aggregate of all amounts for which an indemnity would otherwise be payable by Seller or
Buyer, as applicable under Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.2, as applicable, exceeds the Basket Limitation and (b) in no event shall the liability of Seller or Buyer, as applicable, with respect to the indemnification provided for in
Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.2, as applicable, exceed in the aggregate the Cap Limitation (provided that Seller’s and Buyer’s obligations under Article IX with respect to prorations and adjustments, Seller’s and
Buyer’s obligations for transaction costs under Section 8.1, Seller’s indemnity obligations under Section 10.1(a) and Section 10.1(b) and Seller’s and Buyer’s obligations under Section 12.2 with respect to
brokers shall not be subject to the Basket Limitation or the Cap Limitation). In no event shall Buyer be entitled to seek or obtain consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages against Seller. In no event shall Seller be entitled to seek or
obtain consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages against Buyer. 
 SECTION 10.4. Survival. Except for the
representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1 which shall survive indefinitely, the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and the Closing Documents shall survive for a period of 12 months after the
Closing unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement (the “Survival Period”). 

SECTION 10.5. Notification. In the event that any indemnified party (“Indemnified Party”) obtains actual and not
implied or imputed knowledge of any claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to such Indemnified Party hereunder (an “Indemnification Claim”), such Indemnified
Party shall promptly, but in no event more than 30 days following such Indemnified Party’s having become aware of such Indemnification Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Indemnification Claim, the amount or the estimated
amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Indemnification Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and,
to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving any such notice of a Indemnification Claim shall relieve the
Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay. 

SECTION 10.6. Indemnification as Sole Remedy. If the Closing has occurred, the sole and exclusive remedy available to a party in
the event of a breach by the other party to this Agreement of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement or any Closing Document which survives the Closing shall be the indemnifications provided for under this
Article X. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article X shall not apply to or otherwise affect any claims relating to brokerage commissions pursuant to Section 12.2, the parties’ obligations and rights under Section 9.13 or to the
extent Seller or Buyer has been found to have committed fraud by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable decision.

 ARTICLE XI 

TAX CERTIORARI PROCEEDINGS 

SECTION 11.1. Application of Refunds or Savings. Any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes resulting from tax reduction
proceedings applicable to taxes payable during the period prior to the date of the Closing shall belong to and be the property of Seller, and any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes applicable to taxes payable from and after the date of the
Closing shall belong to and be the property of Company; provided, however, that if any such refund creates an obligation to reimburse any tenants under Space Leases for any rents or Additional Rent paid or to be paid, that portion of
such refund equal to the amount of such required reimbursement (after deduction of allocable expenses as may be provided in the Space Lease to such tenant) shall, at Seller’s election, either (a) be paid to the Company and the Company
shall disburse the same to such tenants or (b) be paid by Seller directly to the tenants entitled thereto. All attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in obtaining such refunds or savings shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer
in proportion to the gross amount of such refunds or savings payable to Seller and the Company, respectively (without regard to any amounts reimbursable to tenants); provided, however, that neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any
liability for any such fees or expenses in excess of the refund or savings paid to such party unless such party initiated such proceeding. 

SECTION 11.2. Survival. The provisions of this Article XI shall survive the Closing.

 ARTICLE II 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

SECTION 2.1 Piggyback Rights. 

(a) If at any time following expiration of the Lockup Period (or, if earlier, such time as any Holder exercises a demand right
pursuant to Section 2.2(a)) the Company proposes to register Securities for public sale (whether proposed to be offered for sale by the Company or by any other Person) under the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-4 or S-8, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes) in a manner which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public
under the Securities Act, it will, at each such time following expiration of the Lockup Period (or if earlier, such time as any Holder exercises a demand right pursuant to Section 2.2(a)), give prompt written notice (which notice shall specify
the intended method or methods of disposition) to the Holders of its intention to do so and of such Holder’s rights under this Section 2.1. Upon the written request of any Holder made within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of any
such notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder), the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable
Securities which the Holders have so requested to be registered; provided that: (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement
filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration of the Securities to be sold by it, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to
the Holders and, thereupon, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith)
without prejudice to the rights of any Holder to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 2.2(a); and (ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of Registrable Securities
requesting to be included in the registration must, upon the written request of the Company, sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters on the same terms and conditions as apply to the other Securities being sold through underwriters
under such registration, with, in the case of a combined primary and secondary offering, only such differences, including any with respect to representations and warranties, indemnification and liability insurance, as may be customary or appropriate
in combined primary and secondary offerings. 
 (b) Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 2.1. 

  
 -5- 

 (c) Priority in Piggyback Registrations. If a registration pursuant to
this Section 2.1 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (a copy of which shall be provided to the Holders) that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities and other Securities
requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be likely to have a material and adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Securities offered in such offering, then the
Company will include in such registration: (i) first, the Securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account; and (ii) second, such number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration which, in the
opinion of such managing underwriter, can be sold without having the material and adverse effect referred to above, which number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among all such requesting Holders of Registrable Securities
on the basis of the relative number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each such Holder. Any other selling holders of the Company’s Securities (other than transferees to whom a Holder has assigned its rights under
this Agreement) will be included in an underwritten offering only with the consent of Holders holding a majority of the shares being sold in such offering. 

(d) Excluded Transactions. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under
this Section 2.1 incidental to the registration of any of its Securities in connection with: 
 (i) the IPO; 

(ii) a registration statement filed to cover issuances under employee benefits plans or dividend reinvestment plans; or 

(iii) any registration statement relating solely to the acquisition or merger after the date hereof by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries of or with any other businesses. 
 (e) Plan of Distribution, Underwriters and Counsel. If a
registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such underwritten offering shall have the right to (i) determine the plan of distribution,
(ii) select the investment banker or bankers and managers to administer the offering, including the lead managing underwriter (provided that such investment banker or bankers and managers shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) and
(iii) select counsel for the selling Holders. 
 (f) Shelf Takedowns. In connection with any shelf takedown
(whether pursuant to Section 2.2(f) or at the initiative of the Company), the Holders may exercise “piggyback” rights in the manner described in this Agreement to have included in such takedown Registrable Securities held by them that
are registered on such shelf registration statement.

 SECTION 2.2 Demand Registration. 

(a) General. At any time, upon the written request of any Holder (the “Demand Party”) requesting that
the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of Registrable Securities and specifying the amount and intended method of disposition thereof (including, but not limited to, an underwritten public offering), the Company will
(i) promptly give written notice of such requested registration to the other Holders and other holders of Securities entitled to notice of such registration, if any, and (ii) as expeditiously as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to
file a registration statement to effect the registration under the Securities Act of: 
 (i) such Registrable Securities
which the Company has been so requested to register by the Demand Party in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof; and 

(ii) the Registrable Securities of other Holders which the Company has been requested to register by written request given to
the Company within fifteen (15) days after the giving of such written notice by the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be
obligated to file a registration statement relating to any registration request under this Section 2.2(a): 
 (x) within
a period of one hundred eighty (180) days (or such lesser period as the managing underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the date of the final prospectus relating to any registration request under this Section 2.2(a) or
relating to any registration referred to in Section 2.1; or 
 (y) if, in the good faith judgment of a majority of the
disinterested members of the Board, the Company is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which would be materially adverse to the Company and would not otherwise be required under Law, in which case the filing of the
registration statement may be delayed until the earlier of the second Business Day after such conditions shall have ceased to exist and the 60th day after receipt by the Company of the written request from a Demand Party to register Registrable
Securities under this Section 2.2(a); provided that the Company shall not effect such a delay more than two times in any twelve (12) month period. 

(b) Form. Each registration statement prepared at the request of a Demand Party shall be effected on such form as
reasonably requested by the Demand Party, including by a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act on a Form S-3 (or any successor rule or form thereto) if so requested by the Demand Party and if the Company is then eligible
to effect a shelf registration and use such form for such disposition. 
 (c) Expenses. The Company will pay all
Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 2.2. 

(d) Plan of Distribution, Underwriters and Counsel. If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 2.2
involves an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such underwritten offering shall have 

  
 -7- 

 
the right to (i) determine the plan of distribution, (ii) select the investment banker or bankers and managers to administer the offering, including the lead managing underwriter
(provided that such investment banker or bankers and managers shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) and (iii) select counsel for the selling Holders. 

(e) Priority in Demand Registrations. If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 involves an
underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing (a copy of which shall be provided to the Holders) that, in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration (including
Securities of the Company which are not Registrable Securities) exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, so as to be likely to have a material and adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Securities offered in such
offering, then the number of such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be allocated pro rata among the Demand Party and all other parties that have requested that their Registrable Securities be sold pursuant to
Section 2.1(a), if any, on the basis of the relative number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each such Holder. Any other selling holders of the Company’s Securities (other than transferees to whom a Holder has
assigned its rights under this Agreement) will be included in an underwritten offering only with the consent of Holders holding a majority of the shares being sold in such offering. 

(f) Shelf Takedowns. Upon the written request of the Demand Party at any time and from time to time, the Company will
facilitate in the manner described in this Agreement a “takedown” of the Demand Party’s Registrable Securities off of an effective shelf registration statement. Upon the written request of the Demand Party, the Company will file and
seek the effectiveness of a post-effective amendment to an existing shelf registration statement or a prospectus supplement in order to register up to the number of the Demand Party’s Registrable Securities previously taken down off of such
shelf by the Demand Party and not yet “reloaded” onto such shelf registration statement. 
 (g) Additional
Rights. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request or require the Company to register any equity Securities of the Company, or any Securities convertible, exchangeable or
exercisable for or into such Securities, or amend any grant of such a right, without the prior written consent of the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities subject to this Agreement. In the event the Company engages in a merger or
consolidation in which the shares of Common Stock are converted into Securities of another company, appropriate arrangements will be made so that the registration rights provided under this Agreement continue to be provided to Holders by the issuer
of such Securities. To the extent such new issuer, or any other company acquired by the Company in a merger or consolidation, was bound by registration rights that would conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to modify any such “inherited” registration rights so as not to interfere in any material respects with the rights provided under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by Holders then holding a majority of
Registrable Securities.

 SECTION 2.3 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required to file a
registration statement with respect to, or to use its reasonable best efforts to effect or cause the registration of, any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Agreement, the Company will as expeditiously as possible:

 (a) promptly prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form with respect to such
Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided, however, that the Company may discontinue any registration of Securities which it has initiated for its own
account at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto (and, in such event, the Company shall pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith); and provided, further, that before
filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will (i) furnish to counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all documents proposed

sold may request, and (iii) make such of the representatives of the Company as shall be reasonably requested by the sellers of the Registrable Securities being sold available for discussion of such documents; 

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in

Section 2.2(b)) and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will (i) furnish to counsel
for the sellers of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such counsel, (ii) fairly consider such reasonable changes in any
such documents prior to or after the filing thereof as the counsel to the sellers of Registrable Securities being sold may request, and (iii) make such of the representatives of the Company as shall be reasonably requested by the sellers of the

order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller; 

  
 -9- 

 (d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable

such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller;

at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the Company’s becoming aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and furnish to
such seller a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; 

(g) otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make
available to its Security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable (but not more than eighteen (18) months) after the effective date of the registration statement, an earnings statement which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a)
of the Securities Act; 
 (h) (i) use its reasonable best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on any securities
exchange on which other Securities of the Company are then listed if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of such exchange; and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to
provide a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; 

(i) enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form), which may include
indemnification provisions in favor of underwriters and other Persons in addition to, or in substitution for the indemnification provisions hereof, and take such other actions as sellers of a majority of such Registrable Securities or the
underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; 

(j) obtain a “cold comfort” letter or letters from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary

 (k) make available for inspection by any seller of such Registrable Securities

all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller,
underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; 
 (l) notify counsel for the
Holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, immediately, and confirm the notice in writing: (i) when the registration statement, or any post-effective amendment to the
registration statement, shall have become effective, or any supplement to the prospectus or any amendment to any prospectus shall have been filed; (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the SEC; (iii) of any request of the SEC to amend
the registration statement or amend or supplement the prospectus or for additional information; and (iv) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or
suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the registration statement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes;

 (m) provide each Holder of Registrable Securities included in such registration statement reasonable opportunity to

(o) if requested by the managing underwriter or agent or any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration
statement, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or agent or such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein,
including, with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold by such Holder to such underwriter or agent, the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriter or agent and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten
offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the
matters incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; 

  
 -11- 

 (p) cooperate with the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by the
registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Securities to be sold under the registration statement, and
enable such Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or agent, if any, or the Holders may request;

Registrable Securities and any underwriters in any “road shows” that may be reasonably requested by the Holders in connection with distribution of Registrable Securities;

opinions and “negative assurance” letters from counsel for the Company in customary form and in form, substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to such Holders, underwriters or agents and their counsel; and 

(s) cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such

 SECTION 2.4 Other
Registration-Related Matters. 
 (a) The Company may require any Person that is Transferring Securities in a Public Offering
pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 to furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding such Person and pertinent to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of the Registrable Securities which are
included in such Public Offering as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 
 (b) Each Holder
agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3(f), it will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering
such Registrable Securities until its receipt of the copies of the amended or supplemented prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3(f) and, if so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company or destroy (at the Company’s
expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in their possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company gives any such notice, the period for
which the Company will be required to keep the registration statement effective will be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 2.3(f) to and including the
date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement has received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3(f). 

(c) Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in
Section 2.3(l)(iv), it will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration 

  
 -12- 

 
statement covering such Registrable Securities until the lifting of such stop order, other order or suspension or the termination of such proceedings and, if so directed by the Company, each
Holder will deliver to the Company or destroy (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in its possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.
In the event the Company gives any such notice, the period for which the Company will be required to keep the registration statement effective will be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such
notice pursuant to Section 2.3(l)(iv) to and including the date when such stop order, other order or suspension is lifted or such proceedings are terminated. 

(d) (i) Each Holder (x) hereby agrees, with respect to the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder, to be bound by any
and all restrictions on the sale, disposition, distribution, hedging or other Transfer of any interest in Registrable Securities imposed on Blackstone and/or its Affiliates in connection with the IPO by the underwriters managing such offering for
the duration of the term of such restriction (the period in which such sale, disposition, distribution, hedging or other Transfer of any interest is restricted, the “Lockup Period”) and (y) will, in connection with a Public
Offering of the Company’s equity Securities (whether for the Company’s account or for the account of any Holder or Holders, or both), upon the request of the Company or of the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the
Company’s Securities, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution of Registrable Securities (other than those included in the Public Offering) without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter for such
period of time commencing seven (7) days before and ending one hundred eighty (180) days (or such earlier date as the managing underwriter shall agree) after the date of the final prospectus relating to such offering; provided that
the Company shall cause all directors and executive officers of the Company, Holders of more than 5% of the Registrable Securities and all other Persons with registration rights with respect to the Company’s Securities (whether or not pursuant

Company’s Securities in respect of which Registrable Securities are included, upon the request of the underwriters managing such offering, agree in writing not to effect any sale, disposition or distribution of equity Securities of the Company
(other than those included in such Public Offering, offered pursuant to Section 2.2(f), offered on Form S-8, issuable upon conversion of Securities or upon the exercise of options, or the grant of options in the ordinary course of business
pursuant to then-existing management equity plans or equity-based employee benefit plans, in each case outstanding on the date a notice is given by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or a request is made pursuant to Section 2.2(a), as
the case may be), without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, for such period of time commencing seven (7) days before and ending one hundred eighty (180) days (or such earlier date as the managing underwriter shall
agree) after the date of the final prospectus relating to such sale. 

  
 -13- 

 (e) With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations
of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of Securities of the Company to the public without registration after such time as a public market exists for Registrable Securities, the Company agrees: 

(i) to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its Securities to the public; 

(ii) to use its commercially reasonable efforts to then file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and 

(iii) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to such Holder promptly upon request: (A) a written
statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its Securities to
the public), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and (C) such other reports and
documents of the Company as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself or himself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing such Holder to sell any such Securities without registration. 

(f) Counsel to represent Holders of Registrable Securities shall be selected by the Holders of at least a majority of the
Registrable Securities included in the relevant registration. 
 (g) Each of the parties hereto agrees that the registration
rights provided to the Holders herein are not intended to, and shall not be deemed to, override or limit any other restrictions on Transfer to which any such Holder may otherwise be subject. 

ARTICLE III 

INDEMNIFICATION 
 SECTION
3.1 Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any registration of any Securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless, to the fullest extent
permitted by Law, each Holder who sells Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, each Affiliate of such Holder and their respective directors and officers or general and limited partners (and the directors, officers, employees,
Affiliates and controlling Persons of any of the foregoing), each other Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such Securities and each other Person, if any, who controls such Holder or any such underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act (each, and “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, and reasonable and documented
expenses to which such Indemnified Party may become subject 

  
 -14- 

 
under the Securities Act, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a
party thereto) arise out of or are based upon: (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Securities were registered under the Securities Act, any
preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the shares of Common Stock (each
such communication by the Company or its agents and representatives (other than any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 134 under the Securities Act) an “Issuer Free
Writing Prospectus”) or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any
other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or related document or report; (b) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances when they were made; or (c) any violation or alleged violation by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in connection with any such registration, disclosure document or
related document or report, and the Company will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding;
provided that the Company will not be liable to any Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information with respect to such Indemnified Party furnished to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by
or on behalf of such Holder or any Indemnified Party and will survive the Transfer of such Securities by such Holder or any termination of this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.2 Indemnification by the Holders and Underwriters. The Company may require, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities
in any registration statement filed in accordance with Section 2.1 or 2.2, that the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from the Holder of such Registrable Securities or any prospective underwriter to
indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 3.1) the Company, all other Holders or any prospective underwriter, as the case may be, and any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers
and controlling Persons, with respect to any untrue statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any “issuer information”
filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any amendment or supplement, if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Holder or
underwriter furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement, or

  
 -15- 

 
a document incorporated by reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of
the Holders, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or controlling Persons and will survive the Transfer of such Securities by such Holder. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities hereunder
be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 

SECTION 3.3 Notices of Claims, Etc. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any
action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Article III, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the
latter of the commencement of such action; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under Section 3.1 or 3.2, except to the extent
that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such
indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it
may wish, with counsel selected by the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the relevant registration, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. If, in such
Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, having common counsel would result in a conflict of interest between the interests of such indemnified and indemnifying parties, then such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel reasonably
acceptable to the indemnifying party to represent or defend such Indemnified Party in such action, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party will not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of
attorneys at any time for all such Indemnified Parties (and not more than one separate firm of local counsel at any time for all such Indemnified Parties) in such action. No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. 

SECTION 3.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for hereunder from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party
hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein for reasons other than those described in the proviso in the first sentence of Section 3.1, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party
and Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a 

  
 -16- 

 
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or Indemnified Parties, and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party under this Section 3.4 as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder of Registrable Securities
hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation. 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.4 were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

SECTION 3.5 Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that specified in this Article III (with appropriate modifications) shall be
given by the Company and each seller of Registrable Securities with respect to any required registration or other qualification of Securities under any Law or with any Governmental Authority other than as required by the Securities Act. 

SECTION 3.6 Non-Exclusivity. The obligations of the parties under this Article III will be in addition to any liability which any party may
otherwise have to any other party. 
 ARTICLE IV 

OTHER 
 SECTION 4.1
Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party hereto to another party hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally, (b) five (5) Business Days

 Exhibit F 

FIRPTA Affidavit 
 FORM
OF FIRPTA CERTIFICATE 
 Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provides that
a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including Section 1445), the person treated as the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real
property interest under local law) for federal income tax purposes will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity. Because BRE/Prime Mezz 2 L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Transferor”), is a
disregarded entity the assets of which are treated for federal income tax purposes as indirectly owned by WIH Hotels L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Tax Owner”), Tax Owner is the transferor of the property for U.S.
tax purposes. To inform Lodge Holdco III L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, a disregarded entity (as defined below) of La Quinta Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Transferee”) that withholding of tax is not required
upon disposition of a U.S. real property interest by Transferor, which is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of the Tax Owner: 

(a) Tax Owner is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Code and
Treasury Regulations); 
 (b) Transferor is a disregarded entity as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii), the
assets of which are, for such purposes, treated as owned by Tax Owner. 
 (c) The U.S. employer identification number of Tax Owner is
            . 
 (d) Tax Owner has an address at
                                . 

This certification is given to Transferee with respect to the transfer of the Assets as such term is defined in that certain Agreement of
Purchase and Sale dated as of             , 2014, among Transferor and Transferee, for the purpose of establishing and documenting the nonforeign affidavit exemption to the withholding
requirement of Section 1445 of the Code. 
 Transferor understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue
Service by Transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment or both. 
 [Signature Page

 Under penalty of perjury, I declare that I have examined this certification and to the best of my
knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete, and I further declare that I have the authority to sign this document on behalf of Tax Owner . 

            , 2014
