 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto
agree as follows: 

 1. Pledge of Pledged Interests; Other Collateral. 
 (a) Each Pledgor hereby grants, pledges and collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a security
interest in all of the following items of property in which it now has or may at any time hereafter acquire an interest or the power to transfer rights therein, and wheresoever located as collateral security for the payment, performance and
satisfaction of all of the Indenture Obligations and the payment and performance of each Pledgor’s obligations and liabilities (whether now existing or hereafter arising) hereunder or under any other Note Document to which it is now or
hereafter becomes a party (such Indenture Obligations, obligations and liabilities of the Pledgors referred to collectively as the “Secured Obligations”): 
 (i) all of the Capital Stock of certain of its Subsidiaries as more particularly described on Schedule I attached hereto
(collectively, the “Pledged Interests”) (such Subsidiaries, together with all other Subsidiaries whose Capital Stock are required to be subject to this Pledge Agreement from time to time, are hereinafter referred to collectively as
the “Pledged Subsidiaries”); 
 (ii) all money, securities, security entitlements and other investment
property, dividends, rights, general intangibles and other property at any time and from time to time (x) declared or distributed in respect of or in exchange for or on conversion of any Pledged Interest, or (y) by its or their terms
exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into any Pledged Interest; 
 (iii) all other property of whatever character or
description, including money, securities, security entitlements and other investment property, and general intangibles hereafter delivered to the Collateral Agent in substitution for or as an addition to any of the foregoing; 
 (iv) all securities accounts to which may at any time be credited any or all of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof and all certificates
and instruments representing or evidencing any of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof; and 
 (v) all proceeds of any of the
foregoing. 
 All such Pledged Interests, certificates, instruments, cash, securities, interests, dividends, rights and other property
referred to in clauses (i) through (v) of this Section 1 are herein collectively referred to as the “Collateral”; provided, however, that Collateral shall not include any Excluded Property (as
defined in the Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, modified, supplemented, restated or amended and restated from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), among the grantors party thereto and the Collateral
Agent). 
 (b) Subject to Section 11(a) and Section 2, each Pledgor agrees to deliver all
certificates, instruments or other documents representing any Collateral to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, at such location as the Collateral Agent shall from time to time designate by written notice pursuant to
Section 23 for its 

 
custody at all times until termination of this Pledge Agreement, together with such instruments of assignment and transfer as requested by the Collateral
Agent. 
 (c) Each Pledgor agrees to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered by other Persons, at
Pledgor’s expense, all share certificates, documents, instruments, agreements, financing statements (and amendments thereto and continuations thereof), assignments or other writings to carry out the terms of this Pledge Agreement or to protect
or enforce the Collateral Agent’s Lien and security interest in the Collateral hereunder granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and further agrees to do and cause to be done upon the Collateral Agent’s
request, at Pledgor’s expense, all things necessary or advisable to perfect and keep in full force and effect the Lien in the Collateral hereunder granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, including the prompt
payment of all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with any filings made to perfect or continue the Lien and security interest in the Collateral hereunder granted in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties. 
 (d) All filing fees, advances, charges, costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
(“Attorney Costs”)), incurred or paid by the Collateral Agent or any Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Pledge Agreement, or in the enforcement thereof, shall become a part of the Secured Obligations
secured hereunder and shall be paid to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties by the Pledgor in respect of which the same was incurred immediately upon demand therefor, and any amounts not so paid on demand (in addition to other
rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the then applicable interest rate borne by the Securities. 
 (e) Each Pledgor agrees to register and cause to be registered the interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, in the Collateral on its own books and records and the registration books of each of the Pledged Subsidiaries. 
 (f)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Pledge Agreement or any other Note Document, no Pledgor shall be required to deliver to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, any of the items described in
Section 3(b) of the Security Agreement. 
 2. Second Priority Nature of Liens. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Pledge Agreement shall
be a second priority lien on and security interest in the Collateral to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder is subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor
Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Pledge Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the
Discharge of the First Lien Debt (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the requirements of this Pledge 

 
Agreement to physically deliver any Collateral to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Collateral to the First Lien Agent (as
defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), as agent and bailee of the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 3. Status of Pledged Interests. Each Pledgor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, with respect to itself and the Collateral as to which it has or acquires
any interest, that: 
 (a) All of the Pledged Interests are, as of the date of execution of this Pledge Agreement or Joinder
Agreement by each Pledgor pledging such Pledged Interests (such date as applicable with respect to each Pledgor, its “Applicable Date”), and shall at all times thereafter be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and
non-assessable, are accurately described on Schedule I, and (except as set forth on Schedule I) constitute all of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of each Pledged Subsidiary. 
 (b) The Pledgor is as at its Applicable Date and shall at all times thereafter (subject to dispositions permitted under the Indenture) be
the sole record and beneficial owner of the Pledged Interests, free and clear of all Liens, charges, equities, options, hypothecations, encumbrances and restrictions on pledge or transfer, including transfer of voting rights (other than Permitted
Liens), the pledge hereunder and applicable restrictions pursuant to federal and state and applicable foreign securities laws). Without limiting the foregoing, the Pledged Interests are not and will not be subject to any voting trust, shareholders
agreement, right of first refusal, voting proxy, power of attorney or other similar arrangement (other than the rights hereunder in favor of the Collateral Agent and any such rights granted in connection with Permitted Liens). 
 (c) At no time shall any Pledged Interests (i) be held or maintained in the form of a security entitlement or credited to any
securities account and (ii) which constitute a “security” (or as to which the related Pledged Subsidiary has elected to have treated as a “security”) under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of North
Carolina or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may govern (the “UCC”) be maintained in the form of uncertificated securities. With respect to Pledged Interests that are “securities” under the UCC, or as to which the
issuer has elected at any time to have such interests treated as “securities” under the UCC, such Pledged Interests are, and shall at all times be, represented by the share certificates listed on Schedule I hereto, which share
certificates, with stock powers duly executed in blank by the Pledgor, have been delivered to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, or are being delivered to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the
Collateral Agent, simultaneously herewith or, in the case of Additional Interests as defined in Section 22, shall be delivered pursuant to Section 22. In addition, with respect to all Pledged Interests, including Pledged
Interests that are not “securities” under the UCC and as to which the applicable Pledged Subsidiary has not elected to have such interests treated as “securities” under the UCC, the Pledgor has at its Applicable Date delivered to
the Collateral Agent (or has previously delivered to the Collateral Agent or, in case of Additional Interests shall deliver pursuant to Section 22) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (or appropriate amendments thereto) duly
authorized by the Pledgor and naming the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as “secured party,” 

 
in form, substance and number sufficient in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent to be filed in all UCC filing offices and in all jurisdictions in
which filing is necessary or advisable to perfect in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the Lien on such Pledged Interests, together with all required filing fees. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3(c), with respect to any Pledged Interests issued by any Subsidiary organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States (a “Foreign Subsidiary”), Pledgor shall deliver or cause to be
delivered, (i) in addition to or in substitution for all or any of the foregoing items, as the Collateral Agent may elect, such other instruments, certificates, agreements, notices, filings, and other documents, and take or cause to be taken
such other action, as necessary or advisable under the laws of the jurisdiction of formation of such Foreign Subsidiary, to grant, perfect and protect as a Lien in such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, and (ii) an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Collateral Agent issued by a law firm licensed to practice law in such foreign jurisdiction. 
 (d) It has full corporate power, legal right and lawful authority to execute this Pledge Agreement (and any Joinder Agreement applicable
to it) and to pledge, assign and transfer its Pledged Interests in the manner and form hereof. 
 (e) The pledge, assignment
and delivery of its Pledged Interests (along with undated stock powers executed in blank, financing statements and other agreements referred to in Section 3(c) hereof) to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Pledge Agreement (or any Joinder Agreement) creates or continues, as applicable, a valid and perfected security interest in such Pledged Interests in favor of the Collateral Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, securing the payment of the Secured Obligations, assuming, in the case of the Pledged Interests which constitute certificated “securities” under the UCC, continuous and uninterrupted possession by or on
behalf of the Collateral Agent. The Pledgor will at its own cost and expense defend the Secured Parties’ right, title and security interest in and to the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever. 
 (f) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or pursuant to a disposition permitted under the Indenture, none of the Pledged
Interests (nor any interest therein or thereto) shall be sold, transferred or assigned without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, which may be withheld for any reason. 
 (g) It shall at all times cause the Pledged Interests of such Pledgor that constitute “securities” (or as to which the issuer
elects to have treated as “securities”) under the UCC to be represented by the certificates now and hereafter delivered to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, in accordance with Sections 1,
3 and 22 hereof and that it shall cause each of the Pledged Subsidiaries as to which it is the Pledgor not to issue any Capital Stock, or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Capital Stock, at any time
during the term of this Pledge Agreement unless the Pledged Interests of such Pledge Subsidiary are issued solely to either (y) such Pledgor who shall immediately comply with Sections 3 and 22 hereof with 

 
respect to such property or (z) the Company or another Guarantor who shall immediately pledge such additional Capital Stock to the Collateral Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to Section 22 or 24 hereof, as applicable, on substantially identical terms as are contained herein and deliver or cause to be delivered the appropriate documents described in
Section 3(c) hereof to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, and take such further actions as necessary to perfect a security interest in such Capital Stock. 
 (h) The exact legal name and address, type of Person, jurisdiction of formation, jurisdiction of formation identification number (if any),
and location of the chief executive office of each Pledgor is as specified on Schedule II attached hereto. No Pledgor shall change its name, jurisdiction of formation (whether by reincorporation, merger or otherwise), or the location of
its chief executive office, except upon giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and taking or causing to be taken all such action at such Pledgor’s expense as may be reasonably requested by
the Collateral Agent to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Lien of the Collateral Agent in Collateral. 
 4. Preservation and
Protection of Collateral; Collateral Agent. 
 (a) The Collateral Agent shall be under no duty or liability with
respect to the collection, protection or preservation of the Collateral, or otherwise, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof while in its possession. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and indemnities
in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement shall be incorporated herein by reference and shall form a part of this Pledge Agreement. 
 (b) Each Pledgor agrees to pay when due all taxes, charges, Liens and assessments against the Collateral in which it has an interest, unless being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently
conducted and against which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with that used in preparing the audited financial statements of the Company and provided that all enforcement proceedings in
the nature of levy or foreclosure are effectively stayed. Upon the failure of any Pledgor to so pay or contest such taxes, charges, Liens or assessments, or upon the failure of any Pledgor to pay any amount pursuant to Section 1(c), the
Collateral Agent at its option may pay or contest any of them (the Collateral Agent having the sole right to determine the legality or validity and the amount necessary to discharge such taxes, charges, Liens or assessments) but shall not have any
obligation to make any such payment or contest. All sums so disbursed by the Collateral Agent, including Attorney Costs, court costs, expenses and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by the applicable Pledgor to the Collateral
Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral, and any amounts not so paid on demand (in addition to other rights and remedies resulting from such nonpayment) shall bear interest from the date of demand until paid in
full at the then applicable interest rate borne by the Securities. 

 (c) Each Pledgor hereby (i) irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to (but the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty to) file (with, or to the extent permitted by applicable law, without the signature of the Pledgor appearing thereon) financing statements (including amendments thereto and continuations and copies thereof)
showing such Pledgor as “debtor” at such time or times and in all filing offices as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable to perfect or protect the rights of the Collateral Agent and
the Secured Parties hereunder, or otherwise to give effect to the transactions herein contemplated, and (ii) irrevocably ratifies and acknowledges all such actions taken by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent prior to the Applicable Date.

 5. Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent is given full power
and authority, then or at any time thereafter, to sell, assign, deliver or collect the whole or any part of the Collateral, or any substitute therefor or any addition thereto, in one or more sales, with or without any previous demands or demand of
performance or, to the extent permitted by law, notice or advertisement, in such order as the Collateral Agent may elect; and any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at the Collateral Agent’s place of business or elsewhere,
either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery, at such price or prices as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem fair; and the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all Collateral so sold and hold the
same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of any Pledgor or right of redemption. Demands of performance, advertisements and presence of property and sale and notice of sale are hereby waived to the extent permissible by law. Any sale
hereunder may be conducted by an auctioneer or any officer or agent of the Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the
Securities Act, and applicable state law, and may be otherwise delayed or adversely affected in effecting any sale by reason of present or future restrictions thereon imposed by governmental authorities, and that as a consequence of such
prohibitions and restrictions the Collateral Agent may be compelled (i) to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own
account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof, or (ii) to seek regulatory approval of any proposed sale or sales, or (iii) to limit the amount of Collateral sold to any Person or group. Each Pledgor
agrees and acknowledges that private sales so made may be at prices and upon terms less favorable to such Pledgor than if such Collateral was sold either at public sales or at private sales not subject to other regulatory restrictions, and that the
Collateral Agent has no obligation to delay the sale of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the Pledged Subsidiary to register or otherwise qualify the Collateral, even if such Pledged Subsidiary would agree to register
or otherwise qualify such Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act or applicable state law. Each Pledgor further agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, that the use of private sales made under the foregoing circumstances to
dispose of the Collateral shall be deemed to be dispositions in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges that a ready market may not exist for the Pledged Interests if they are not traded on a national securities exchange
or quoted on an automated quotation system and agrees and acknowledges that in such event the Pledged Interests may be sold for an amount less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of the Pledged Subsidiary’s assets minus its
liabilities. In addition to the foregoing, 

 
the Secured Parties may exercise such other rights and remedies as may be available under the Indenture or any Note Document, at law (including without
limitation the UCC) or in equity. 
 6. Proceeds of Sale. As a result of the collection, liquidation, sale, or other
disposition of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent or the First Lien Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) upon the exercise of any remedy with respect to the Collateral during the continuance of any Event of Default, the net cash
proceeds shall be applied first to the expenses (including all Attorney Costs) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting, liquidating and the like, and then to the satisfaction of all Secured Obligations
in accordance with the terms of Section 406 of the Indenture. Each Pledgor shall be liable to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall pay to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on demand
any deficiency which may remain after such sale, disposition, collection or liquidation of the Collateral. 
 7. Presentments, Demands
and Notices. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation whatsoever to make or give any presentments, demands for performances, notices of nonperformance, protests, notice of protest or notice of dishonor in connection
with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held thereby as collateral, or in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part the Secured Obligations secured hereunder. 
 8. Attorney-in-Fact. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact for the purposes of carrying
out the provisions of this Pledge Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an
interest; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks and other orders for the payment of money made payable to any Pledgor representing any
dividend, interest payment, principal payment or other distribution payable or distributable in respect to the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. 
 9. Reinstatement. The granting of a security interest in the Collateral and the other provisions hereof shall continue to be effective or
be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or is repaid by any Secured Party in whole or in part in good faith settlement of a
pending or threatened avoidance claim, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or any other Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The provisions of this Section 9 shall
survive repayment of all of the Secured Obligations and the termination or expiration of this Pledge Agreement in any manner. 
 10.
Waiver by the Pledgors. Each Pledgor waives to the extent permitted by applicable law (a) any right to require any Secured Party or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations to (i) proceed against any Person or entity,
including without limitation the Company or any Guarantor, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any Collateral or other collateral for the 

 
Secured Obligations, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in its power, (b) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any
other Person, or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Person or entity, (c) any right of subrogation, (d) any right to enforce any remedy which any Secured Party or any other obligee of the
Secured Obligations now has or may hereafter have against any other Person and any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral or security whatsoever now or hereafter held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
Each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent and the Trustee without notice (except notice required by applicable law) or demand and without affecting its liability under the Indenture, this Pledge Agreement or any other Security Document from time
to time to: (x) take and hold security, other than the Collateral herein described, for the payment of such Secured Obligations or any part thereof, and exchange, enforce, waive and release the Collateral herein described or any part thereof or
any such other security; and (y) apply such Collateral or other security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in its discretion may determine. 
 The Collateral Agent may at any time deliver (without representation, recourse or warranty) the Collateral or any part thereof to a Pledgor and the
receipt thereof by such Pledgor shall be a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and the Collateral Agent shall thereafter be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor. 
 11. Dividends and Voting Rights. 
 (a) All dividends and other distributions with respect to any of the Pledged Interests shall be subject to the pledge hereunder, provided, however, that cash dividends paid to a Pledgor as record owner
of the Pledged Interests, to the extent permitted by the Indenture to be declared and paid, may be retained by such Pledgor. 
 (b) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the registration of the Collateral in the name of each Pledgor as record and beneficial owner shall not be changed and each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all
voting and other rights and powers pertaining to the Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms hereof or the Indenture. 
 (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the option of the Collateral Agent, all rights of each of the Pledgors to exercise the voting or consensual rights and powers which it is
authorized to exercise pursuant to subsection (b) above shall cease and the Collateral Agent may thereupon (but shall not be obligated to), at its request, cause such Collateral to be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its
nominee or agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and/or exercise such voting or consensual rights and powers as appertain to ownership of such Collateral, and to that end each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its proxy, with
full power of substitution, to vote and exercise all other rights as a shareholder with respect to such Pledged Interests hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, which proxy is coupled with an interest and
is irrevocable until the termination of this Pledge Agreement, and each Pledgor hereby agrees to provide such further proxies as the Collateral Agent may request; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent in its discretion may from
time to time refrain from 

 
exercising, and shall not be obligated to exercise, any such voting or consensual rights or such proxy. 
 12. Continued Powers. Until the termination of this Pledge Agreement, the power of sale and other rights, powers and remedies granted to
the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder shall continue to exist and may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be exercised by the Collateral Agent at any time and from time
to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations or that any part of the liability of any Pledgor may have ceased. 
 13. Other Rights. The rights, powers and remedies given to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties by this Pledge
Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party under the Indenture or any other Note Document or by virtue of any statute or rule of law. Any forbearance or failure or delay by
the Collateral Agent in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such right, power or remedy, and any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not preclude the further
exercise thereof; and every right, power and remedy of the Secured Parties shall continue in full force and effect until such right, power or remedy is specifically waived in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 
 14. Anti-Marshaling Provisions. The right is hereby given by each Pledgor to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
to make releases (whether in whole or in part) of all or any part of the Collateral agreeable to the Collateral Agent without notice to, or the consent, approval or agreement of other parties and interests, including junior lienors, which releases
shall not impair in any manner the validity of or priority of the Liens and security interests in the remaining Collateral conferred hereunder, nor release any Pledgor from personal liability for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the
existence of any other security interest in the Collateral held by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Collateral shall be
subjected to the remedies provided in this Pledge Agreement. Each Pledgor hereby waives any and all right to require the marshaling of assets in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies permitted by applicable law or provided in the
Indenture or in any Note Document. 
 15. Entire Agreement. This Pledge Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, together with the
Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement and the other Note Documents, constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements and
understandings, inducements, commitments or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof and of the Joinder Agreements control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade
inconsistent with any of the terms hereof and thereof. Neither this Pledge Agreement nor any Joinder Agreement nor any portion or provision hereof or thereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or
amended orally or in any manner other than as provided in the Indenture. 

 16. Further Assurances. Each Pledgor agrees at its own expense to do such further acts and
things, and to execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered as may be necessary or advisable to give effect thereto, such additional conveyances, assignments, financing statements, documents, certificates, stock powers, agreements and
instruments, in connection with the administration or enforcement of this Pledge Agreement or any Joinder Agreement or related to the Collateral or any part thereof or in order better to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent its rights,
powers and remedies for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder or thereunder. Each Pledgor hereby consents and agrees that the Pledged Subsidiaries and all other Persons, shall be entitled to accept the provisions hereof and of the Joinder
Agreements as conclusive evidence of the right of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, to exercise its rights, privileges, and remedies hereunder and thereunder with respect to the Collateral, notwithstanding any other notice or
direction to the contrary heretofore or hereafter given by any Pledgor or any other Person to any of such Pledged Subsidiaries or other Persons. 
 17. Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Pledge Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and thereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and to
their respective successors and assigns, except that no Pledgor shall be permitted to assign this Pledge Agreement, any Joinder Agreement or any interest herein or therein or in the Collateral, or any part thereof or interest therein, or otherwise
pledge, encumber or grant any option with respect to the Collateral, or any part thereof, or any cash or property held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral under this Pledge Agreement. All references herein to the Collateral Agent and to the
Secured Parties (including Holders of Securities) shall include any successor thereof or permitted assignee, and any other obligees from time to time of the Secured Obligations. 
 18. Release of Liens. 
 (a) If any part of the Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in compliance with the requirements of the Indenture, then in each such case, such Collateral shall automatically be released from the Liens and security
interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under this Pledge Agreement. Upon any Pledgor’s request, the Collateral Agent shall (upon receipt of a written certification of an officer of the Company, which
states that the Collateral Agent has received all documents, if any, required by the Trust Indenture Act (if the Trust Indenture Act is then applicable to the Indenture) and the Indenture) promptly execute and deliver to such Pledgor, at such
Pledgor’s expense, all UCC termination statements, releases and similar documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to terminate of record, or otherwise give appropriate notice of the termination of, any Lien conferred hereunder in
connection with the making of such sales, dispositions or other transfers or such Lien releases; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action or execute or deliver any document if doing so would violate the terms of
the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture. 
 (b) If all or substantially all of the Collateral is required to be released
in accordance with the Indenture with the consent of the Holders, then in each such case, at the request and expense of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent, having received the consent 

 
of the requisite Holders as required under the Indenture, will (upon receipt of a written certification of a Responsible Officer of the Company that the
Trustee has received all documents, if any, required by the Trust Indenture Act (if the Trust Indenture Act is then applicable to the Indenture) and the Indenture) duly release from the security interest created hereby and, with respect to
Collateral in the physical possession of the Collateral Agent, deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so released and has not theretofore been released
pursuant to this Pledge Agreement, and execute and deliver to such Pledgor, at such Pledgor’s expense, all UCC termination statements, releases and similar documents that such Pledgor shall reasonably request to terminate of record, or
otherwise give appropriate notice of the termination of, any Lien conferred hereunder in connection with such release of all or substantially all of the Collateral; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action
or execute or deliver any document if doing so would violate the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture. 
 19.
Severability. The provisions of this Pledge Agreement are independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect
the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, but this Pledge Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
 20. Counterparts. This Pledge Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Pledge Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by the Pledgor against whom enforcement is sought. 
 21. Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 9, this Pledge Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, and all obligations
of the Pledgors hereunder (excluding those obligations and liabilities that expressly survive such termination) shall terminate without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party when the Second Priority Liens have been
released, in whole, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1505 of the Indenture. Upon such termination of this Pledge Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, at the sole expense of the Pledgors, promptly deliver to the
Pledgors the certificates evidencing its shares of Pledged Interests (and any other property received as a dividend or distribution or otherwise in respect of such Pledged Interests to the extent then held by the Collateral Agent as additional
Collateral hereunder), together with any cash then constituting the Collateral not then sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the provisions hereof, and take such further actions at the request of the Pledgors as may be necessary to
effect the same. 
 22. Additional Interests. If any Pledgor shall at any time acquire or hold any additional Pledged
Interests, including any Pledged Interests issued by any Subsidiary not listed on Schedule I hereto which are required to be subject to a Lien pursuant to this Pledge Agreement by the terms hereof or of any provision of the Indenture
(any such shares being referred to herein as the “Additional Interests”), such Pledgor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (i) a Pledge Agreement Supplement in the form of
Exhibit A hereto with respect to such Additional Interests duly completed and executed by such Pledgor and (iii) any other document required in connection with such Additional Interests as 

 
described in Section 3(c). Each Pledgor shall comply with the requirements of this Section 22, as promptly as practical upon the
acquisition of any such Additional Interests; provided, however, that the failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 22 shall not impair the Lien on Additional Interests conferred hereunder. 
 23. Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 106 of the Indenture.

 24. Joinder. Each Person who shall at any time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a Joinder Agreement (including
each Person required to deliver a Joinder Agreement pursuant to Section 913(b) of the Indenture) shall thereupon irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally become a party hereto and obligated hereunder as a Pledgor and shall have thereupon
pursuant to Section 1 hereof granted a security interest in and collaterally assigned and pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties all Pledged Interests which it has at its Applicable Date or thereafter
acquires any interest or the power to transfer, and all references in the Indenture and any other Note Document to the Pledgors or to the parties to this Pledge Agreement shall be deemed to include such Person as a Pledgor hereunder. Each Joinder
Agreement shall be accompanied by the Supplemental Schedules referred to therein, appropriately completed with information relating to the Pledgor executing such Joinder Agreement and its property. Each of the applicable Schedules attached hereto
shall be deemed amended and supplemented without further action by such information reflected on the Supplemental Schedules to each Joinder Agreement. 
 25. Governing Law; Waivers.

PERMITTED BY THE APPLICABLE LAWS OF ANY SUCH JURISDICTION, EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES, IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, OBJECTION TO THE EXERCISE OF

 [Securities Pledge Agreement] 

 EXHIBIT A 
 PLEDGE AGREEMENT SUPPLEMENT 
 THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT SUPPLEMENT (as from time to time amended,
revised, modified, supplemented or amended and restated, this “Supplement”), dated as of             ,
             is made by             , a
             corporation (the “Pledgor”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Collateral Agent for each of the Holders and the Trustee (as described in the
Pledge Agreement referred to below) now or hereafter party to the Indenture or a Holder of the Notes (each as defined in the Pledge Agreement referred to below). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective
meanings assigned thereto in the Pledge Agreement (as defined below). 
 WHEREAS, the Pledgor is required under the terms of that
certain Securities Pledge Agreement dated as of May 7, 2009 executed by the Pledgor (among others), or to which the Pledgor has been joined as a party pursuant to a Joinder Agreement, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties (as from time to time amended, revised, modified, supplemented or amended and restated, the “Pledge Agreement”), to cause certain Pledged Interests held by it and listed on Annex A to this Supplement (the
“Additional Interests”) to be specifically identified as subject to the Pledge Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, a material
part of the consideration given in connection with issuance and sale of the Notes was the obligation of the Pledgor to pledge to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the Additional Interests, whether then owned or subsequently
acquired or created; and 
 WHEREAS, the Pledgor has acquired rights in the Additional Interests and desires to pledge, and evidence
its prior pledge, to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties all of the Additional Interests in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Pledge Agreement; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Pledgor hereby agrees as follows with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: 
 The Pledgor hereby reaffirms and acknowledges the pledge and collateral assignment to, and the grant of security interest in, the Additional Interests
contained in the Pledge Agreement and pledges and collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a lien and security interest in, the
Additional Interests and all of the following: 
 (a) all money, securities, security entitlements and other investment
property, dividends, rights, general intangibles and other property at any time and from time to time (x) declared or distributed in respect of or in exchange for or on conversion of any or all of the Additional Interests or (y) by its or
their terms exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into any Additional Interest or other Pledged Interest; 
 (b) all
other property of whatever character or description, including money, securities, security entitlements and other investment property, and general intangibles 

 
hereafter delivered to the Collateral Agent in substitution for or as an addition to any of the foregoing; 
 (c) all securities accounts to which may at any time be credited any or all of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof and all certificates
and instruments representing or evidencing any of the foregoing or any proceeds thereof; and 
 (d) all proceeds of any of the
foregoing; provided, however, that such pledge and collateral assignment and grant of a Lien and security interest does not extend to any Excluded Property. 
 The Pledgor hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms by its execution of this Supplement that the Additional Interests constitute “Pledged Interests” under and are subject to the Pledge Agreement, and the
items of property referred to in clauses (a) through (d) above (the “Additional Collateral”) shall collectively constitute “Collateral” under and are subject to the Pledge Agreement; provided,
however, that Additional Collateral shall not include any Excluded Property. Each of the representations and warranties with respect to Pledged Interests and Collateral contained in the Pledge Agreement is hereby made by the Pledgor with
respect to the Additional Interests and the Additional Collateral, respectively. The Pledgor further represents and warrants that Annex A attached to this Supplement contains a true, correct and complete description of the Additional
Interests, and that all other documents required to be furnished to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 3(c) of the Pledge Agreement in connection with the Additional Collateral have been delivered or are being delivered
simultaneously herewith to the Collateral Agent. The Pledgor further acknowledges that Schedule I to the Pledge Agreement shall be deemed, as to it, to be supplemented as of the date hereof to include the Additional Interests as
described on Annex A to this Supplement. 
 The Pledgor irrevocably waives notice of acceptance of this Supplement and acknowledges that the
Secured Obligations are and shall be deemed to be incurred, made and maintained, in reliance on this Supplement. 
 IN WITNESS
WHEREOF, the Pledgor has caused this Supplement to be duly executed by its authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.

 Exhibit 4.3 
 Execution Version 
 THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY
ARE SUBJECT TO THAT CERTAIN INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MAY 7, 2009, AMONG BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., AS FIRST LIEN AGENT, U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS SECOND LIEN AGENT, SONIC AUTOMOTIVE, INC. AND THE SUBSIDIARIES OF SONIC AUTOMOTIVE,
INC. PARTY THERETO (THE “INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT”), AND EACH PARTY TO OR HOLDER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT

 SECURITY AGREEMENT (ESCROWED EQUITY) 
 THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT (ESCROWED EQUITY) (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 7, 2009 by SONIC AUTOMOTIVE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company” and a “Grantor”), EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED SUBSIDIARIES OF THE COMPANY AND EACH OTHER PERSON WHO SHALL BECOME A PARTY HERETO BY EXECUTION OF A JOINDER AGREEMENT (each a “Grantor”,
and collectively with the Company, the “Grantors”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as collateral agent (together with any successor, the “Collateral Agent”) for the Trustee (as defined below) and each
Holder (collectively with the Collateral Agent, the “Secured Parties”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture (as defined below). 

W I T N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS, 6.00% Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2012 of the Company (the “Securities”), in the original aggregate principal amount of $85,627,000.00 will be issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of
May 7, 2009 (as amended, modified, supplemented, restated or amended and restated from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the
“Trustee”); 
 WHEREAS, each Guarantor has, pursuant to the Indenture, unconditionally guaranteed the Secured
Obligations (as defined below); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and each other Grantor will materially benefit from the issuance of the
Securities; 
 WHEREAS, it is a condition to the issuance and sale of the Securities that the Grantors execute and deliver this
Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, each Grantor has agreed to make all shares of Capital Stock of the Subsidiaries described on
Schedule I (as such schedule may be supplemented from time to time) (collectively, the “Escrow Subsidiaries”) subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Capital Stock in the Escrow Subsidiaries is not permitted to be pledged under the terms of certain manufacturer agreements to which
such Escrow Subsidiaries are parties (the “Restricted Equity Interests”); 

 WHEREAS, in lieu of a pledge by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent of the Restricted Equity
Interests, the Grantors shall grant a security interest in certain Disposition Proceeds (as defined below) of such Restricted Equity Interests; and 
 WHEREAS, the Grantors have delivered or will deliver the Escrowed Shares (as defined below) into an escrow to be held by Bank of America, N.A. (and its successor or successors in such capacity, the “First Lien
Agent”) in accordance with the Escrow and Security Agreement, dated as of February 17, 2006 (as amended, restated, revised, modified, supplemented or amended and restated from time to time, the “First Lien Escrow and Security
Agreement”), among the Company, certain Subsidiaries of the Company and the First Lien Agent. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 
 ESCROW 
 1.1
Escrow. So long as the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement is in effect, each Grantor agrees to deliver to the First Lien Agent, or an agent or bailee of the First Lien Agent, in escrow (“Escrow”) all of the issued
and outstanding certificated shares of Capital Stock now or hereafter owned by such Grantor described on Schedule I attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, as Schedule I may be amended or supplemented from time
to time (collectively, the “Escrowed Shares”). 
 1.2 Certain Escrow Aspects. 
 (a) The Grantors shall pay all income, withholding and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income which are attributable to
income from the Escrowed Shares and the Disposition Proceeds for the time all or any part thereof are held in escrow hereunder, and shall file all tax and information returns applicable thereto. To the extent that the Collateral Agent becomes liable
for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes, in respect of income derived from the Escrowed Shares and Disposition Proceeds, the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be obligated, to pay such taxes. The Collateral Agent may withhold or
offset from any amount payable by the Collateral Agent to the Grantors such amount as the Collateral Agent determines in its sole discretion to be sufficient to provide for the payment of such taxes; alternately any such amount paid by the
Collateral Agent shall become a part of the Secured Obligations (as defined below). In addition, the Collateral Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Grantors from and against any liability for such taxes and for any penalties or
interest in respect of taxes on such investment income or payments in the manner provided in the Indenture. 
 (b) It
is agreed that the Grantor shall retain all rights to dividends, all rights to vote and all other rights in respect of ownership of the Escrowed Shares, subject only to the Security Interest in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral (each as defined
below); provided, that so long as the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement is in effect, any certificated Restricted Equity Interests received as a dividend or other distribution in respect of Escrowed Shares shall be delivered to the
First Lien Agent, or an agent or bailee of the First Lien Agent, in escrow for 

 
the benefit of the First Lien Agent and the Collateral Agent to be held pursuant to the terms of the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement. 
 (c) If a Discharge of the First Lien Debt (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) has occurred or the First Lien Agent is no
longer acting as escrow agent pursuant to the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement, then the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement so that the Collateral Agent will act as escrow agent on terms substantially
similar, mutatis mutandis, to the terms under which the First Lien Agent previously acted as escrow agent under the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement. 
 (d) Each of the Grantors agrees that the Restricted Equity Interests and the Restricted Disposition Proceeds shall be delivered to
and held in the escrow account in accordance with the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement, and shall not be transferred or otherwise disposed of except in accordance with the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement and this Agreement. Each
Grantor owning a Restricted Equity Interest or Restricted Disposition Proceeds shall not incur and shall not permit the incurrence of any consensual lien on any such Restricted Equity Interest or Restricted Disposition Proceeds except to secure
First Lien Debt (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement). The Grantor shall give the Collateral Agent prior notice of any resignation of the First Lien Agent as escrow agent under the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement. Each Grantor party
to the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the continuance of the escrow in accordance with the terms of the First Lien Escrow Agreement so long as the Discharge of the First Lien Debt (as
defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) has not occurred, and if the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement is terminated, will promptly deliver certificates representing the Restricted Equity Interests and the Restricted Disposition Proceeds to
the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, to hold in escrow pursuant to a new escrow agreement as contemplated by Section 1.2(c). 
 ARTICLE II 
 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST 
 2.1 Assignment and Grant of Security. Each Grantor hereby grants as collateral security for the payment, performance and satisfaction of
all of the Indenture Obligations and the payment and performance of its obligations and liabilities (whether now existing or hereafter arising) hereunder or under any other Note Document to which it is now or hereafter becomes a party (such
Indenture Obligations, obligations and liabilities of the Grantors referred to collectively as the “Secured Obligations”), to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a continuing security interest in and to, and
collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (collectively, the “Security Interest”) all rights, titles and interests which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire in the
following (collectively, the “Disposition Proceeds”): (i) all purchase and sale agreements relating to any of the Restricted Equity Interests and all rights to secure payment thereunder; (ii) the net cash proceeds and all
securities, general intangibles, contract rights, or any other proceeds whatsoever (other than shares of a Subsidiary which the Grantor is not obligated to pledge) which are received or from time to time receivable or otherwise distributed in
respect of the transfer, sale, assignment, conveyance or other disposition of any kind (each, a “Disposition”) of the Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests and any other property substituted or exchanged 

 
therefor (other than Restricted Disposition Proceeds and other shares of a Subsidiary which the Grantor is not obligated to pledge) including without
limitation proceeds from any foreclosure sale or any other forced sale or liquidation or any sale or disposition arising or occurring pursuant to a plan in bankruptcy; and (iii) any and all proceeds or other sums payable and/or distributable
with respect to, all or any of the Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests and the other interests described in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof. Disposition Proceeds which constitute Restricted Equity
Interests shall be referred to herein as “Restricted Disposition Proceeds” and shall not be included within the property subject to the Security Interest. The Disposition Proceeds subject to the Security Interest are referred to
herein as the “Disposition Proceeds Collateral”; provided, however, that Disposition Proceeds Collateral shall not include any Excluded Property (as defined in the Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as
amended, modified, supplemented, restated or amended and restated from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), among the grantors party thereto and the Collateral Agent) and Excluded Property shall not be subject to the Security
Interest. 
 2.2 Delivery of Certificated Disposition Proceeds. Upon any Disposition or conversion of all or a part of the
Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests (including without limitation any foreclosure sale, any other forced sale or any sale or disposition arising or occurring pursuant to a plan in bankruptcy), the Grantors shall deliver to the
Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, any certificated Disposition Proceeds, including duly executed instruments of transfer. The term “certificated” when used with the term “Disposition Proceeds” shall
mean any such Disposition Proceeds which are evidenced or represented by a note, certificate, instrument, chattel paper or other written evidence of ownership or entitlement. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Note Document, no Grantor shall be required to deliver
to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, any of the items described in Section 3(b) of the Security Agreement. 
 2.3 Second Priority Nature of Liens. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be a second priority lien on and security interest in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and the
exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder is subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of the First Lien Debt, the requirements of this Agreement to physically deliver any Escrowed Shares or Disposition Proceeds to
the Collateral Agent shall be deemed satisfied by delivery of such Escrowed Shares or Disposition Proceeds to the First Lien Agent as agent and bailee of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 ARTICLE III 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES 

 3.1 Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor represents and warrants as follows:

 (a) This Agreement and the grant of the Security Interest pursuant hereto creates a valid security interest in the
Disposition Proceeds securing the payment of the Secured Obligations, and upon taking possession thereof, the filing of financing statements in accordance with the UCC, and/or any other necessary actions to perfect such security interest, such
security interest in such Disposition Proceeds will be duly perfected; and all filings and other actions necessary or desirable to perfect and protect such security interest and such priority have been duly taken (or will be taken). 
 (b) No consent of any other Person and no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
governmental authority is required (i) for the grant by Grantors of the Security Interest in the Disposition Proceeds or for the execution, delivery, performance or enforceability of this Agreement by the Grantors, (ii) for the perfection
or maintenance of the Security Interest in the Disposition Proceeds created hereby except for the taking of possession thereof, the UCC filings or any other action required by the UCC or other applicable perfection statutes, or (iii) for the
exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of the rights provided for in this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Disposition Proceeds pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c) The Grantors are, individually or collectively, as applicable, the legal and beneficial owners of the Escrowed Shares and other
Restricted Equity Interests; all of the Escrowed Shares and other Restricted Equity Interests currently outstanding and described on Schedule I are duly authorized and issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and all documentary, stamp or
other taxes or fees owing in connection with the issuance thereof have been paid; to the knowledge of the Grantors, no dispute, right of setoff, counterclaim or defense exists with respect to all or any part of the Escrowed Shares or other
Restricted Equity Interests; the Escrowed Shares and other Restricted Equity Interests are free and clear of all Liens, mortgages, pledges, charges, security interests or other encumbrances, options, warrants, puts, calls and other rights of third
persons, and restrictions, other than Permitted Liens, restrictions on transferability imposed by this Agreement, the Indenture, the other Note Documents, the applicable Franchise Agreement (as defined in the Credit Facility as in effect on the date
hereof), the applicable Framework Agreement (as defined in the Credit Facility as in effect on the date hereof) and applicable state and federal securities laws; neither this Agreement, the Indenture nor any of the other Note Documents creates or
requires the creation or the granting by any Grantor of a Security Interest in the Escrowed Shares and other Restricted Equity Interests. 
 (d) The original certificates representing all of the certificated Escrowed Shares and the certificated Restricted Equity Interests have been delivered to the First Lien Agent in escrow in accordance with the
terms of the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement. The Restricted Equity Interests described on Schedule I constitute (i) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of the Escrow Subsidiaries as of the date hereof,
and (ii) the indicated number of shares and/or ownership interest percentages of the entities as shown on Schedule I; none of the Escrow Subsidiaries have issued, nor are there outstanding, any options, warrants or other rights in
favor of any Grantor or any other Person to acquire the Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests or any capital stock of any of the Escrow Subsidiaries.

 ARTICLE IV 
 COVENANTS

 Grantors covenant and agree as follows: 
 4.1 Further Assurances. (a) Each Grantor agrees that, where any agreement existing as of the date hereof or hereafter to which such Grantor is a party contains any restriction prohibiting such
Grantor from (i) transferring the Escrowed Shares into Escrow, or (ii) granting the Security Interest in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, such Grantor will obtain or use its best efforts to obtain the necessary consent to or waiver of
such restriction from any Person so as to enable such Grantor to effectively transfer the Escrowed Shares into Escrow and grant to Collateral Agent such Security Interest in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral. 
 (b) Each Grantor will from time to time at its expense promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all
further action, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, in order to perfect and protect the Security Interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or in any Joinder Agreement, in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, in the priority
thereof, or to create or preserve the full benefits of this Agreement and the rights and powers of Collateral Agent herein or in any Joinder Agreement, or to enable Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder or
thereunder with respect to any of the 

 
Disposition Proceeds Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon written request by Collateral Agent, each Grantor will: (i) if
the Disposition Proceeds Collateral are certificated, deliver to Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, such certificated Disposition Proceeds Collateral duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of
transfer or assignment; and (ii) execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary, in order to perfect and preserve the Security Interest granted or
purported to be granted hereby with respect to any and all such Disposition Proceeds Collateral. 
 (c) Each Grantor hereby
authorizes Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of the Disposition Proceeds Collateral without the signature of such Grantor where and to the extent permitted
by applicable law. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Disposition Proceeds Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where and to the extent permitted by
applicable law. 
 (d) Each Grantor will furnish to Collateral Agent from time to time, upon the written request of Collateral
Agent, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Disposition Proceeds Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, as Collateral Agent may reasonably request. 
 (e) In addition to such other information as shall be specifically provided for herein, Grantors shall furnish to Collateral Agent such
other information with respect to the Disposition Proceeds Collateral as Collateral Agent may reasonably request from time to time in connection with the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, or the protection, preservation, maintenance or enforcement of
the Security Interest or the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, including, without limitation, all documents and things in Grantors’ possession, or subject to its demand for possession, related to the Disposition Proceeds Collateral. 

(f) Except with respect to any transaction permitted by the Indenture, no Grantor will make any Disposition of the Escrowed Shares or
other Restricted Equity Interests (whether certificated or uncertificated) or any part thereof, or create directly or indirectly any security interest or otherwise encumber (other than Permitted Liens and any restriction imposed by any Franchise
Agreement (as defined in the Credit Facility as in effect on the date hereof) or any Framework Agreement (as defined in the Credit Facility as in effect on the date hereof) to which the Grantor is a party) any of the Escrowed Shares or other
Restricted Equity Interests, or permit any of the Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests to ever be or become subject to any warrant, put, option or other rights of third Persons or any attachment, execution, sequestration or other
legal or equitable process, or any security interest or encumbrance of any kind (other than Permitted Liens). 
 (g) The
Grantors shall enforce or secure in the name of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the performance of each and every obligation, term, covenant, condition and agreement relating to any certificated Disposition Proceeds
Collateral, and the Grantors shall appear in and defend any action or proceeding arising under, occurring out of or in any manner connected therewith and upon request by the Collateral Agent, the Grantors will do so in the name of the Collateral
Agent and on behalf of the Secured Parties, but at the expense of the Grantors, and the Grantors shall pay all costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and the 

 
Secured Parties, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and disbursements (“Attorney Costs”), in any action or proceeding in which the
Secured Parties may appear. 
 (h) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall allow the Collateral Agent to
inspect all records of such Grantor relating to the Escrowed Shares and/or the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, and to make and take away copies of such records. 
 (i) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent of any material change in any fact
or circumstance warranted or represented by such Grantor in this Agreement or in any other writing furnished by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent in connection with the Escrowed Shares or this Agreement. 
 (j) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent of any claim, action or proceeding
affecting title to the Escrowed Shares, or any part thereof, the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, or the Security Interest, and at the request of the Collateral Agent, appear in and defend, at the Grantors’ expense, any such action or
proceeding. 
 (k) The Grantors (jointly and severally) shall promptly pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of all
reasonable costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and/or the Secured Parties, including, but not limited to, reasonable Attorney Costs, incurred by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties in connection with this Agreement and the enforcement
of the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder, in accordance with the Indenture. 
 (l) At no time
shall any Escrowed Shares or other Restricted Equity Interests (i) be held or maintained in the form of a security entitlement or credited to any securities account and (ii) which constitute a “security” (or as to which the
related Escrow Subsidiary has elected to have treated as a “security”) under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may govern (the “UCC”) be maintained in
the form of uncertificated securities. 
 4.2 Conversions; etc. Should the Escrowed Shares, or any part thereof, ever be in any
manner converted by any of the Escrow Subsidiaries into another property of the same or another type or any money or other proceeds ever be paid or delivered to any Grantor as a result of such Grantor’s rights in the Escrowed Shares, then in
any such event (except as otherwise provided herein), (i) (in the case of property other than Restricted Equity Interests) all such property, money and other proceeds shall be and/or become part of the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, and
(ii) (in the case of Restricted Equity Interests) such property shall be delivered in accordance with the First Lien Escrow and Security Agreement (so long as such agreement is in effect). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
Grantor hereby agrees that the shares of capital stock of the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation involving any of the Escrow Subsidiaries or any of the Escrowed Shares shall be deemed to constitute Disposition Proceeds Collateral
(or, if applicable, Restricted Disposition Proceeds) if the surviving Escrow Subsidiary ceases to be either a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company. 
 4.3 Preservation of Escrowed Shares. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Secured Parties shall have any responsibility for or obligation or duty with respect to all or any part of the Escrowed Shares or
other Restricted Equity Interests or any Disposition Proceeds Collateral or 

 
any matter or proceeding arising out of or relating thereto, including, without limitation, beyond the use of reasonable care in the custody and preservation
thereof while in its possession, any obligation or duty to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect or preserve any rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors
shall be responsible generally for the preservation of all rights in the Escrowed Shares, the other Restricted Equity Interests and the Disposition Proceeds Collateral. 
 4.4 Rights of Parties Before the Occurrence of an Event of Default. 
 (a) Exercising Rights and Receipt of Cash Proceeds Prior to an Event of Default. Unless and until any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing: 
 (i) With respect to all Disposition Proceeds Collateral, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Grantors shall be entitled
to receive all cash dividends or interest paid in respect of or attributable to such Disposition Proceeds Collateral and any and all other Distributions. As used herein “Distributions” shall mean the declaration or payment of any
dividend or other distribution on or with respect to such Disposition Proceeds Collateral, and any other payment made with respect to such Disposition Proceeds Collateral other than in respect of a Disposition thereof. 
 (ii) With respect to all Disposition Proceeds Collateral, each Grantor shall have the right to vote and give consents with respect to all
such Disposition Proceeds Collateral owned by it and to consent to, ratify, or waive notice of any and all meetings and take such other action as it deems appropriate to protect or further its interests in respect thereof, provided that such
right shall in no case be exercised for any purpose contrary to, or in violation of, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, the Securities, the Indenture, or any other Note Document. 
 (iii) The relevant Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain the cash purchase price for any sale of Restricted Equity Interests
that is permitted under the Indenture and shall not be required to deliver such cash to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any provision hereof. 
 (b) Exercising Rights in Disposition Proceeds Collateral After the Occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the option of the
Collateral Agent, without the consent of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent may: 
 (i) At any time vote or consent in respect
of any Disposition Proceeds Collateral and authorize any such Disposition Proceeds Collateral to be voted and such consents to be given, ratify and waive notice of any and all meetings, and take such other action as shall seem desirable to the
Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, to protect or further the interests of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties in respect of any such Disposition Proceeds Collateral as though it were the outright owner thereof, and, each Grantor
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, its sole proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution to vote and act with respect to any and
all 

 
such Disposition Proceeds Collateral standing in the name of such Grantor or with respect to which such Grantor is entitled to vote and act. The proxy and
power of attorney herein granted are coupled with interests, are irrevocable, and shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement; 
 (ii) In respect of any Disposition Proceeds Collateral, join in and become a party to any plan of recapitalization, reorganization or readjustment (whether voluntary or involuntary) as shall seem desirable to the
Collateral Agent in respect of any such Disposition Proceeds Collateral, and deposit any such Disposition Proceeds Collateral under any such plan; make any exchange, substitution, cancellation or surrender of such Disposition Proceeds Collateral
required by any such plan and take such action with respect to any such Disposition Proceeds Collateral as may be required by any such plan or for the accomplishment thereof and no such disposition, exchange, substitution, cancellation or surrender
shall be deemed to constitute a release of such Disposition Proceeds Collateral from the Security Interest of this Agreement; 
 (iii) Receive for application as provided in Section 406 of the Indenture all payments of whatever kind made upon or with respect to any Disposition Proceeds Collateral; and 
 (iv) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4(c) hereof transfer or endorse into its name, or into the name or names of its
nominee or nominees, all or any of the Disposition Proceeds Collateral. 
 (c) Right of Sale of Disposition Proceeds
Collateral After the Occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may sell, without recourse to judicial proceedings, by way of one or more contracts, with the
right (except at private sale) to bid for and buy, free from any right of redemption, any Disposition Proceeds Collateral upon ten (10) days’ notice (which notice is agreed to be reasonable notice for the purposes hereof) to the Grantors
of the time and place of sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, at the Collateral Agent’s option and in the Collateral Agent’s complete discretion: 
 (i) At public sale, including a sale at any broker’s board or exchange; or 
 (ii) At private sale in any manner which will not require the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, or any part thereof, to be registered in
accordance with the Securities Act or any other law or regulation, at the best price reasonably obtainable by the Collateral Agent at any such private sale or other disposition in the manner mentioned above. 
 The Collateral Agent is also hereby authorized, but not obligated, to take such actions, give such notices, obtain such consents, and do such other things as the
Collateral Agent may deem required or appropriate in the event of sale or disposition of such Disposition Proceeds Collateral. Each Grantor understands that the Collateral Agent may in its sole discretion approach a restricted number of potential
purchasers and that a sale under such circumstances may yield a lower price for such Disposition Proceeds Collateral, or any portion thereof, than 

 
would otherwise be obtainable if the same were registered and sold in the open market. Each Grantor agrees (A) that in the event the Collateral Agent
shall so sell such Disposition Proceeds Collateral, or any portion thereof, at such private sale or sales, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of any member firm of a national securities exchange as to the
best price reasonably obtainable upon such a private sale thereof (any expense borne by the Collateral Agent in obtaining such advice to be paid by the Grantors as an expense related to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its rights hereunder),
and (B) that such reliance shall be conclusive evidence that the Collateral Agent handled such matter in a commercially reasonable manner. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to take any steps to permit such Disposition Proceeds
Collateral to be sold at a public sale or to delay a sale to permit the Escrow Subsidiaries to register such Disposition Proceeds Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act or applicable state securities law. In ease of any sale by the
Collateral Agent of the Disposition Proceeds Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Disposition Proceeds Collateral sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the selling price is paid by the purchaser, but the Collateral Agent
shall incur no liability in case of failure of the purchaser to take up and pay for the Disposition Proceeds Collateral so sold. In case of any such failure, such Disposition Proceeds Collateral so sold may be again similarly sold. In connection
with the sale of the Disposition Proceeds Collateral, the Collateral Agent is authorized, but not obligated, to limit prospective purchasers to the extent deemed necessary or desirable by the Collateral Agent to render such sale exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, and no sale so made in good faith by the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to be “commercially reasonable” because so made. In no event, however,
shall the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party have any right to sell, foreclose upon, or compel the sale of any Escrowed Shares. 
 (d) Other Rights After an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent, at its election, may with respect to all Disposition Proceeds Collateral exercise any and
all rights available to a secured party under the UCC or the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in any other applicable jurisdiction, in addition to any and all other rights afforded hereunder, under the Indenture, the Securities, under the other
Note Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise. 
 (e) Application of Proceeds. Any and all Disposition Proceeds
Collateral, including cash proceeds and the proceeds from the disposition as hereinabove provided, received by Holders or any part thereof shall be applied as provided in Section 406 of the Indenture. 
 4.5 Right to File as Financing Statement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to execute and file this Agreement as a
financing statement, but the failure of the Collateral Agent to do so shall not impair the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Security Interest. 
 4.6 Restricted Disposition Shares; No Control by Collateral Agent or Holders. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, a security interest in any Restricted Disposition Proceeds or the Escrowed Shares, but the Collateral Agent shall have,
and is hereby granted, a security interest in Disposition Proceeds Collateral (the “Subsequent Proceeds”) of Restricted Disposition Proceeds so long as such Subsequent Proceeds are not themselves Restricted Disposition Proceeds. Any

 
Restricted Disposition Proceeds delivered to the Collateral Agent, or an agent or bailee of the Collateral Agent, are to be held in Escrow by or on behalf of
the Collateral Agent and will be deemed to be Escrowed Shares for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (b) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement, the Indenture and the other Note Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not, constitute, create or have the effect of constituting or creating, directly or
indirectly, the actual or practical ownership of any of the Escrow Subsidiaries by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, or control, affirmative or negative, direct or indirect, by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party over the management
or any other aspect of the day-to-day operation of the Escrow Subsidiaries, which ownership and control remains exclusively and at all times in each of the Escrow Subsidiaries. 
 4.7 Agreement to Supplement. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall be amended and supplemented from time to time
to specifically include a description of all Escrowed Shares subject hereto subsequent to the date hereof. The Collateral Agent shall have a valid security interest in all additional Disposition Proceeds which come into existence after the date
hereof, whether or not reflected on a supplement to Schedule I. The Grantor hereby agrees to execute, deliver and cause the filing of all stock powers, financing statements and other documents and to take such further action as deemed
necessary in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable discretion with respect to each such additional Escrowed Shares and Disposition Proceeds to ensure each Grantor’s compliance hereunder with respect thereto. 
 4.8 Reinstatement. The granting of a security interest in the Disposition Proceeds Collateral and the other provisions hereof shall
continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or is repaid by any Secured Party in whole or in part in good
faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Grantor or any other Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The provisions of this
Section 4.8 shall survive repayment of all of the Secured Obligations and the termination or expiration of this Agreement in any manner. 
 4.9 Certain Waivers by the Grantors. Each Grantor waives to the extent permitted by applicable law (a) any right to require any Secured Party or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations to
(x) proceed against any Person or entity, including without limitation any Guarantor, (y) proceed against or exhaust the Disposition Proceeds Collateral or other collateral for the Secured Obligations, or (z) pursue any other remedy
in its power, (b) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any other Person, or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Person or entity, (c) any right of subrogation,
and (d) any right to enforce any remedy which any Secured Party or any other obligee of the Secured Obligations now has or may hereafter have against any other Person and any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral or security
whatsoever now or hereafter held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent and the Trustee without notice (except notice required by applicable law or the Indenture) or demand and
without affecting its liability under the Indenture, this Agreement or any other Note Document from time to time to: (i) take and hold security, other than the Disposition Proceeds Collateral herein described, for the payment of such Secured

 
Obligations or any part thereof, and exchange, enforce, waive and release the Disposition Proceeds Collateral herein described or any part thereof or any
such other security; and (ii) apply such Disposition Proceeds Collateral or other security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Collateral Agent or the Trustee in its discretion may determine. 
 The Collateral Agent may at any time deliver (without representation, recourse or warranty) the Disposition Proceeds Collateral or any part thereof to a
Grantor and the receipt thereof by such Grantor shall be a complete and full acquittance for the Disposition Proceeds Collateral so delivered, and the Collateral Agent shall thereafter be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor.

 4.10 Continued Powers. Until the termination of this Agreement, the power of sale and other rights, powers and remedies
granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder shall continue to exist and may be exercised by the Collateral Agent at any time and from time to time irrespective of the fact that any of the Secured Obligations or
any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of limitations or that any part of the liability of any Grantor may have ceased. 
 4.11 Other Rights. The rights, powers and remedies given to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties by this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to the Collateral Agent or
any Secured Party under the Indenture or any other Note Document or by virtue of any statute or rule of law. Any forbearance, failure or delay by the Collateral Agent in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of such right, power or remedy, and any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not preclude the further exercise thereof, and every right, power and remedy of the Secured Parties shall continue in full force
and effect until such right, power or remedy is specifically waived in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 
 4.12
Anti-Marshaling Provisions. The right is hereby given by each Grantor to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to make releases (whether in whole or in part) of all or any part of the Disposition Proceeds
Collateral agreeable to the Collateral Agent without notice to, or the consent, approval or agreement of other parties and interests, including junior lienors, which releases shall not impair in any manner the validity of or priority of the Liens
and security interests in the remaining Disposition Proceeds conferred hereunder, nor release any Grantor from personal liability for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of any other security interest in the Disposition Proceeds
held by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Disposition Proceeds shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Agreement.
Each Grantor hereby waives any and all rights to require the marshaling of assets in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies permitted by applicable law or provided herein or in any other Note Document or the Indenture. 
 4.13 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, together with the Indenture and the other Note Documents and the
Intercreditor Agreement, constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements and understandings, inducements, commitments or
conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof and of the Joinder Agreements control and supersede any course of 

 
performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof and thereof. Neither this Agreement nor any Joinder Agreement nor any portion or
provision hereof or thereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or amended orally or in any manner other than as provided in the Indenture. 
 4.14 Reliance. Each Grantor hereby consents and agrees that all Persons shall be entitled to accept the provisions hereof and of the
Joinder Agreements as conclusive evidence of the right of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, to exercise its rights, privileges, and remedies hereunder and thereunder with respect to the Disposition Proceeds, notwithstanding any
other notice or direction to the contrary heretofore or hereafter given by any Grantor or any other Person to any Persons. 
 4.15
Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and thereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and to their respective successors
and assigns, except that no Grantor shall be permitted to assign this Agreement, any Joinder Agreement or any interest herein or therein. All references herein to the Collateral Agent and to the Secured Parties (including the Holders of Securities)
shall include any successor thereof or permitted assignee, and any other obligees from time to time of the Secured Obligations. 
 4.16
Release of Liens. 
 (a) If any of the Escrowed Securities or any part of the Disposition Proceeds is sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of in compliance with the requirements of the Indenture, then in each such case, such Escrowed Shares or Disposition Proceeds shall automatically be released from (to the extent relevant) the Liens and security
interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under this Agreement. If all or any of the Escrowed Securities or the Disposition Proceeds are required to be released in accordance with the Indenture, then in each
such case, such Escrowed Shares or Disposition Proceeds shall automatically be released from (to the extent relevant) the Liens and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under this Agreement. Upon
any Grantor’s request, the Collateral Agent shall (upon receipt of a written certification of an officer of the Company, which states that the Collateral Agent has received all documents, if any, required by the Trust Indenture Act (if the
Trust Indenture Act is then applicable to the Indenture) and the Indenture) promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements, releases and similar documents that such Grantor shall
reasonably request to terminate of record, or otherwise give appropriate notice of the termination of, any Lien conferred hereunder in connection with the making of such sales, dispositions or other transfers or such Lien releases; provided,
that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action or execute or deliver any document if doing so would violate the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture. 
 (b) If all or substantially all of the Escrowed Securities or Disposition Proceeds are required to be released in accordance with
the Indenture with the consent of the Holders, then in each such case, at the request and expense of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent, having received the consent of the requisite Holders as required under the Indenture, will (upon receipt of a
written certification of a Responsible Officer of the Company that the Trustee has received all documents, if any, required by the Trust Indenture Act (if the Trust Indenture Act is then 

 
applicable to the Indenture) and the Indenture) duly release from the security interest created hereby and, with respect to Escrowed Securities or
Disposition Proceeds in the physical possession of the Collateral Agent, deliver to such Grantor (without recourse and without representation or warranty) such of the Escrowed Securities or Disposition Proceeds as are then being (or have been) so
released and have not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement, and execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements, releases and similar documents that such Grantor shall reasonably
request to terminate of record, or otherwise give appropriate notice of the termination of, any Lien conferred hereunder in connection with such release of all or substantially all of the Escrowed Securities or Disposition Proceeds; provided,
that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action or execute or deliver any document if doing so would violate the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indenture. 
 4.17 Collateral Agent. 
 The
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and indemnities in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement shall be incorporated herein by reference and shall form part of this Agreement. 
 4.18 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any
reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never
been contained herein. 
 4.19 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by the Grantor against whom enforcement is sought. 
 4.20 Termination. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.8, this Agreement and each Joinder Agreement, and all obligations of
the Grantors hereunder (excluding those obligations and liabilities that expressly survive such termination) shall terminate without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party when the Second Priority Liens have been released,
in whole, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1505 of the Indenture. Upon such termination of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, at the sole expense of the Grantors, promptly deliver to the Grantors the
Escrowed Shares, all other certificated Restricted Equity Interests and the Disposition Proceeds Collateral and take such actions at the request of the Grantors as may be necessary to effect the same. 
 4.21 Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 106 of the Indenture.

 4.22 Joinder. Each Person who shall at any time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a Joinder Agreement (including
each Person required to deliver a Joinder Agreement pursuant to Section 913(b) of the Indenture) shall thereupon irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally become a party hereto and obligated hereunder to the extent required pursuant to such
Joinder Agreement as a Grantor and shall have thereupon pursuant to Section 1 hereof 

 
granted a security interest in and collaterally assigned and pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties all Disposition Proceeds
which it has at its Applicable Date or thereafter acquires any interest or the power to transfer, and all references herein, in any other Note Document and in the Indenture to the Grantors or to the parties to this Agreement shall be deemed to
include such Person as a Grantor hereunder. Each Joinder Agreement shall be accompanied by the Supplemental Schedules referred to therein, appropriately completed with information relating to the Grantor executing such Joinder Agreement and its
property. Each of the applicable Schedules attached hereto shall be deemed amended and supplemented without further action by such information reflected on the Supplemental Schedules to each Joinder Agreement. 
 4.23 Survival of Representations. 
 All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the delivery of documents referred to herein or secured hereby.
