any other North America ABL Claimholder with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral, in each case, will assert any marshaling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise be available to a junior secured creditor. 

2.3 No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of Prior Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, the parties hereto agree that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor to: 

(a) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property of any Grantor to secure any Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligation unless it has
granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the North America ABL Obligations and the Excess North America ABL Obligations, the parties hereto agreeing that any such Lien shall be subject to Section 2.1
hereof; provided that this provision will not be violated if the North America ABL Agent is given ten (10) Business Days to accept a Lien on any asset or property and the North America ABL Agent states in writing that the North America
ABL Documents prohibit the North America ABL Agent from accepting a Lien on such asset or property, or the North America ABL Agent otherwise expressly declines to accept a Lien on such asset or property; or 

(b) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any North America ABL Obligations or Excess North America ABL
Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, the parties hereto agreeing that any such Lien shall be subject to Section 2.1 hereof;
provided that this provision will not be violated if the Notes Collateral Trustee is given ten (10) Business Days to accept a Lien on any asset or property and the Notes Collateral Trustee states in writing that the Indenture Pari Passu
Lien Debt Documents prohibit the Notes Collateral Trustee from accepting a Lien on such asset or property, or the Notes Collateral Trustee otherwise expressly declines to accept a Lien on such asset or property. 

To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to them,
(i) the North America ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and each of the other North America ABL Claimholders, and (ii) the Notes Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and each of the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, each agree that
any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.2. 

2.4 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the Collateral that is subject to Liens
securing the North America ABL Obligations, the Excess North America ABL Obligations and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, in each case of the Grantors be identical. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 8.8, the parties
hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, upon request by the North America ABL Agent or the Notes Collateral Trustee, to cooperate in good faith from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the North
America ABL Priority Collateral and the Notes Priority Collateral of the Grantors and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the North America ABL Loan Documents and the
Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents.

Restrictions on Exercise of Remedies by the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral. 

(a) Until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been
commenced by or against any Grantor, the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders: 
 (i)
will not commence or maintain, or seek to commence or maintain, any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral; provided that the Notes Collateral Trustee may
commence an Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any or all such rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 120 days has elapsed since the date on which the North America ABL Agent received notice from the Notes Collateral
Trustee of the declaration of an Event of Default under any Indenture Pari Passu Lien Document specifying such Event of Default and, if requested by the North America ABL Agent, giving reasonable details of such Events of Default (the “North
America ABL Standstill Period”); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder exercise any rights or remedies with
respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral if, notwithstanding the expiration of the North America ABL Standstill Period, the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder shall have commenced and be diligently
pursuing an Enforcement Action or other exercise of their rights or remedies in each case with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral or seeking to lift or dissolve any stay or other injunction preventing them from exercising such
rights (notice of such exercise to be given to the Notes Collateral Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable); 
 (ii) will
not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral or any other exercise by the North
America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder of any rights and remedies relating to the North America ABL Priority Collateral under the North America ABL Loan Documents or otherwise (including any Enforcement Action initiated by or
supported by the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder), in each case so long as any proceeds received by the North America ABL Agent in excess of those necessary to achieve a Discharge of North America ABL Obligations
are distributed in accordance with any contractual obligation, the UCC, the PPSA and other applicable law, subject to the relative priorities described herein; and 

(iii) subject to their rights under clause (a)(i) above, will not object to the forbearance by the North America ABL
Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholders from bringing or pursuing any foreclosure proceeding or action or any other exercise of any rights or remedies, in each case, relating to the North America ABL Priority Collateral. 

  
 23 

 (b) Until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, whether or not any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Grantor, subject to Section 3.1(a)(i), the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders shall have the exclusive right to commence and
maintain an Enforcement Action with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral or otherwise enforce rights, exercise remedies (including, but not limited to, set-off, recoupment and the right to
credit bid their debt with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral; provided that the Notes Collateral Trustee shall have the credit bid rights set forth in Section 3.1(c)(vi)), subject to Section 5.1, to
make determinations regarding the release, disposition, or restrictions with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder;
provided, further, that any proceeds of the North America ABL Priority Collateral received by the North America ABL Agent in excess of those necessary to achieve a Discharge of North America ABL Obligations are distributed in
accordance with this Agreement, any other contractual requirement, the UCC, the PPSA and other applicable law, subject to the relative priorities described herein. In commencing or maintaining any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercising rights
and remedies with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral, the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders may enforce the provisions of the North America ABL Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all
in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion in compliance with any applicable law and without consultation with the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder and regardless of whether
any such exercise is adverse to the interest of any Notes Claimholder. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of North America ABL Priority Collateral upon foreclosure, to
incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC, the PPSA and other applicable law and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable

thereof) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect their Lien on the North America ABL Priority Collateral; 

  
 24 

 (iii) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any
motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, including any claims secured by the North America ABL Priority
Collateral, if any, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; 
 (iv) vote on any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, compromise or liquidation, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided that no filing of any claim or vote, or
pleading related to such claim or vote, to accept or reject a disclosure statement, plan of reorganization, arrangement, compromise or liquidation, or any other document, agreement or proposal similar to the foregoing by the Notes Collateral Trustee
or any other Notes Claimholder may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; 
 (v) exercise any of its rights
or remedies with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral after the termination of the North America ABL Standstill Period to the extent permitted by Section 3.1(a)(i); 

(vi) bid for or purchase North America ABL Priority Collateral at any public, private or judicial foreclosure upon such
Collateral initiated by the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder, or any sale of North America ABL Priority Collateral during an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; provided that such bid may not include a
“credit bid” in respect of any Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations unless the cash proceeds of such bid are otherwise sufficient to cause the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations; and 

(vii) object to any proposed acceptance of North America ABL Priority Collateral by any North America ABL Claimholder pursuant
to Section 9-620 of the UCC or any similar provision of the PPSA. 
 The Notes Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and the other
Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, agrees that it will not take or receive any North America ABL Priority Collateral or any proceeds of North America ABL Priority Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off
and recoupment) with respect to any North America ABL Priority Collateral in its capacity as a creditor, unless and until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, except in connection with any foreclosure expressly permitted by
Section 3.1(a)(i) to the extent the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders are permitted to retain the proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 4.2. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, except as expressly provided in Sections 3.1(a), 6.3(b) and this Section 3.1(c), the sole right of the Notes Collateral Trustee and
the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral is to hold a Lien on the North America ABL Priority Collateral pursuant to the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Collateral Documents for the period and
to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred.

otherwise prohibited hereunder, including, but not limited to, any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the North America ABL Priority Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise; 

(ii) the Notes Collateral Trustee, for itself and on behalf of the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, hereby waives any

North America ABL Priority Collateral securing the North America ABL Obligations undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the North America ABL Agent or the other North
America ABL Claimholders is adverse to the interest of the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders; and 
 (iii) the Notes
Collateral Trustee hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Collateral Documents or any other Indenture Pari Passu Lien Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed
to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the North America ABL Agent or the other North America ABL Claimholders with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the North America ABL Loan
Documents. 
 (e) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu
Lien Claimholders may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against any Grantor that has guaranteed or granted Liens to secure the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt
Documents and applicable law; provided that in the event that any Notes Claimholder becomes a judgment Lien creditor in respect of any North America ABL Priority Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor
with respect to the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the North America ABL Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Notes Pari Passu
Lien Obligations are subject to this Agreement. 
 (f) Except as specifically set forth in Sections 3.1(a) and (d),
nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Notes Pari Passu Lien
Obligations so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the exercise by the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including set-off and recoupment) with respect to the North America ABL Priority Collateral or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien on the North America ABL Priority Collateral held by any of them.

Claimholders, agrees not to commence an Enforcement Action until an Enforcement Notice has been given to the North America ABL Agent.

(i) will not commence or maintain, or seek to commence or maintain, any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or
remedies with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral; provided that the North America ABL Agent may commence an Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any or all such rights or remedies after the passage of a period of at least 120 days
has elapsed since the date on which the Notes Collateral Trustee received notice from the North America ABL Agent of the declaration of an Event of Default under any North America ABL Document specifying such Event of Default and, if requested by
the Notes Collateral Trustee, giving reasonable details of such Events of Default (the “Notes Standstill Period”); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the North

possession or physical control of any of the Notes Priority Collateral consisting of Equipment (including fixtures) or Real Estate Assets or the Notes Collateral Trustee shall determine to sell or otherwise dispose of any such Notes Priority

fact, and the North America ABL Agent shall within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer as may be agreed by the Notes Collateral Trustee in its sole discretion) after its receipt of such notice, notify the Notes Collateral Trustee in writing
as to whether the North America ABL Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Section 3.3. In addition, if the North America ABL Agent, or any agent or representative of the North America ABL Agent, shall obtain possession or
physical control of any of the Notes Priority Collateral consisting of Equipment (including fixtures) or Real Estate Assets, following the delivery to the Notes Collateral Trustee of an Enforcement Notice with respect to the Disposition of any North
America ABL Priority Collateral, then the North America ABL Agent shall promptly notify the Notes Collateral Trustee in writing that the North America ABL Agent is exercising its access rights under this Agreement and its rights under
Section 3.4 in respect of such North America ABL Priority Collateral. Upon delivery of such notice by the North America ABL Agent to the Notes Collateral Trustee, the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the
North America ABL Agent’s exercise of such access rights. Consistent with the definition of “Access Period”, access rights may apply to differing portions of the Notes Priority Collateral at differing times, in which case, a differing
Access Period will apply to each such portion. 
 (b) During any pertinent Access Period, the North America ABL Agent and its agents,
representatives and designees shall have an irrevocable, non-exclusive right to have access to, and a royalty-free, rent-free right to use, the Notes Priority Collateral consisting of any Real Estate Asset or Equipment (including fixtures) located

Collateral for sale or disposition; (ii) selling the North America ABL Priority Collateral (by public auction, private sale or any other way, whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise and which
sale may include augmented Inventory of the same type sold in any Grantor’s business); (iii) storing or otherwise dealing with the North America ABL Priority Collateral; or (iv) taking any action necessary to complete the

  
 31 

 
assembly, manufacture, processing, packaging, storage, sale or disposal (whether in bulk, in lots or to customers in the ordinary course of business or otherwise), transportation or shipping
and/or removal of, in any lawful manner (A) work-in-process; (B) raw materials; (C) Inventory; or (D) any other item of North America ABL Priority Collateral. During any such Access Period, the North America ABL Agent and its
representatives (and Persons employed on their behalf), may continue to operate, service, maintain, process and sell the North America ABL Priority Collateral, as well as to engage in bulk sales of North America ABL Priority Collateral. The North
America ABL Agent shall take proper and reasonable care under the circumstances of any Notes Priority Collateral that is used by the North America ABL Agent during the Access Period and repair any physical damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted)
directly caused by the North America ABL Agent or its agents, representatives or designees, and the North America ABL Agent shall comply with all applicable laws in all material respects in connection with its use or occupancy of the Notes Priority
Collateral; provided, however, that the North America ABL Agent and the other applicable North America ABL Claimholders will not be liable for any diminution in the value of the Notes Priority Collateral caused by the absence of the
North America ABL Priority Collateral therefrom and none of such North America ABL Claimholders have any duty or liability to maintain the Notes Priority Collateral in a condition or manner better than that in which it was maintained prior to the
access or use thereof by such North America ABL Claimholders. In no event shall the North America ABL Agent or the other North America ABL Claimholders have any liability to the Notes Collateral Trustee and/or the other Notes Pari Passu Lien
Claimholders hereunder as a result of any condition (including any environmental condition, claim or liability) on or with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral existing prior to the date of the exercise by the North America ABL Agent of its
rights under this Agreement. The North America ABL Agent and the Notes Collateral Trustee shall cooperate and use reasonable efforts to ensure that their activities during any Access Period as described above do not unduly interfere with the
activities of the other as described above, including the right of the Notes Collateral Trustee to show the Notes Priority Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Notes Priority Collateral for sale. 

(c) The Notes Collateral Trustee shall not sell or dispose of any of the Notes Priority Collateral consisting of Equipment (including
fixtures) or Real Estate Assets of a type subject to Section 3.3 or 3.4 prior to the expiration of the applicable Access Period or Use Period, as the case may be, unless the buyer agrees in writing to acquire the Notes Priority
Collateral consisting of Equipment (including fixtures) or Real Estate Assets subject to the terms of Section 3.3 and Section 3.4 of this Agreement and agrees to comply with the terms thereof. The rights of the North America
ABL Agent and the other ABL Claimholders under this Section 3.3 and Section 3.4 during any Access Period or Use Period shall continue notwithstanding such foreclosure, sale or other disposition by the Notes Collateral
Trustee. 
 3.4 Notes General Intangibles Rights/Access to Information. The Notes Collateral Trustee hereby grants (to the full
extent of its rights and interests, if any) with respect to the Notes Priority Collateral consisting of Collateral, to the North America ABL Agent and its agents, representatives and designees (a) an irrevocable royalty-free, rent-free
nonexclusive license and lease (which will be binding on any successor or assignee of any such Notes Priority Collateral) to use, all of such Notes Priority Collateral of the applicable Grantors consisting of Notes General Intangibles (including,
for the avoidance of doubt, Intellectual Property), and any computer or other data processing Equipment included in such Notes Priority Collateral

(c) The Notes Collateral Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, the North America ABL
Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties
or responsibilities of the Notes Collateral Trustee under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee (and with respect to deposit accounts, agent) in accordance with this Section 5.5
and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations as provided in clause (f) below. 

(d) Neither the North America ABL Agent nor the Notes Collateral Trustee shall have by reason of the North America ABL Collateral Documents,
the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Collateral Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the any other Agent or Claimholder (other than, in the case of the North America ABL Agent, the other North America ABL
Claimholders, and, in the case of the Notes Collateral Trustee, the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders). The (i) Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders hereby waive and release the North America ABL

  
 43 

 
Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the North America ABL Agent’s role and (ii) North America ABL Agent and the other
North America ABL Claimholders hereby waive and release the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to the Notes Collateral Trustee’s role, in each case under
this Section 5.5 as gratuitous bailee and gratuitous agent with respect to the Pledged Collateral. It is understood and agreed that the interests of the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders and the Notes
Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders may differ, and each of the North America ABL Agent and Notes Collateral Trustee and each of the North America ABL Claimholders and Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall be fully
entitled to act in their own interest without taking into account the interests of any other Agent or Claimholders (other than, in the case of the North America ABL Agent, the North America ABL Claimholders, and, in the case of the Notes Collateral
Trustee, the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders). 
 (e) Upon the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations under the North America ABL
Loan Documents to which the North America ABL Agent is a party, the North America ABL Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession (if any), pursuant to this Section 5.5, together with any necessary endorsements
(such endorsement shall be without recourse and without any representation or warranty), first, to the Notes Collateral Trustee until the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, second, to the holders of the Excess North
America ABL Obligations until such Obligations are satisfied, and third, to the Persons entitled to it to the extent no North America ABL Obligations, Excess North America ABL Obligations or Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations remain
outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The North America ABL Agent further agrees to take all other action
reasonably requested by the Notes Collateral Trustee at the expense of the Grantors in connection with the Notes Collateral Trustee obtaining a first-priority interest in the North America ABL Priority
Collateral. 
 (f) Upon the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations under the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents to which the
Notes Collateral Trustee is a party, the Notes Collateral Trustee shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral in its possession (if any) pursuant to this Section 5.5, together with any necessary endorsements (such endorsement shall be
without recourse and without any representation or warranty), first, to the North America ABL Agent until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations and no Excess North America ABL Obligations remain outstanding and second, to the
applicable Grantors to the extent no Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, North America ABL Obligations or Excess North America ABL Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such
Pledged Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Notes Collateral Trustee further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the North America ABL Agent at the expense of the Grantors in connection
with the North America ABL Agent obtaining a first-priority interest in the Notes Priority Collateral. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any obligation of the North America ABL Agent or the Notes
Collateral Trustee, to make any delivery to the Notes Collateral Trustee or the North America ABL Agent, respectively, under Section 5.5(e), Section 5.5(f) or Section 5.6 is subject to (i) the order of any
court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) any automatic stay imposed in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor. 

  
 44 

 5.6 When Discharge of Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. 

(a) If, concurrently upon or at any time after the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations, the Grantors thereafter enter into any
Refinancing of any North America ABL Loan Document evidencing a North America ABL Obligation which Refinancing is permitted by the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents and this Agreement, then such Discharge of North America ABL Obligations
shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of North America ABL Obligations), and, from and after the date
on which the New North America ABL Debt Notice is delivered to the Notes Collateral Trustee in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing of the North America ABL Loan Document shall automatically be treated as North
America ABL Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the North America ABL Agent under such North America ABL Loan Documents shall be the
North America ABL Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice (the “New North America ABL Debt Notice”) stating that the Grantors have entered into a new North America ABL Loan Document (which notice shall
include the identity of the new collateral agent with respect to the North America ABL Loan Documents, such agent, the “New North America ABL Agent”), the Notes Collateral Trustee shall promptly (i) enter into such documents
and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as Grantors or such New North America ABL Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New North America ABL Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case
consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) deliver to the New North America ABL Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New North America ABL
Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New North America ABL Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If
the new North America ABL Obligations under the new North America ABL Loan Documents are secured by assets of Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, then the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations
shall be secured at such time by a second priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Collateral Documents and this Agreement. 

(b) If, concurrently upon or at any time after the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, the Company thereafter enters into any
Refinancing of any Indenture Pari Passu Lien Document evidencing a Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligation which Refinancing is permitted by the North America ABL Loan Documents and this Agreement, then such Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations
shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all 

  
 45 

 
purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations), and, from and after the date
on which the New Notes Debt Notice is delivered to the North America ABL Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing of the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Document shall automatically be treated as Notes Pari Passu
Lien Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the Notes Collateral Trustee under such Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents shall be
the Notes Collateral Trustee for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice (the “New Notes Debt Notice”) stating that the Company has entered into a new Indenture Pari Passu Lien Document (which notice shall include
the identity of the new collateral agent with respect to the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents, such agent, the “New Notes Agent”), the North America ABL Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements
(including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Company or such New Notes Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New Notes Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case consistent in all material respects with
the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New Notes Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New Notes Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New Notes
Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the new Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations under the new Indenture Pari Passu Lien
Debt Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the North America ABL Obligations, then the North America ABL Obligations shall be secured at such time by a second priority Lien on such assets of
Grantors or, respectively, to the same extent provided in the North America ABL Collateral Documents and this Agreement. 
 5.7 Purchase
Right. 
 (a) Without prejudice to the enforcement of any of the North America ABL Claimholders’ remedies under the North America
ABL Loan Documents, this Agreement, at law or in equity or otherwise, the North America ABL Claimholders agree at any time following (i) an acceleration of any of the North America ABL Obligations in accordance with the terms of the applicable
North America ABL Loan Documents by the North America ABL Claimholders, (ii) a payment default under the North America ABL Loan Documents or that has not been cured or waived by the North America ABL Claimholders under the North America ABL
Loan Documents within 90 days of the occurrence thereof or (iii) the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor resulting in a North America ABL Default under any of the North America ABL Loan Documents then,
the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall have the right to purchase from the North America ABL Claimholders, the entire aggregate amount of outstanding North America ABL Obligations (including all unfunded commitments under the North America ABL
Loan Documents) at the Purchase Price without warranty or representation or recourse except as provided in Section 5.7(c), on a pro rata basis among the North America ABL Claimholders. The “Purchase Price” will equal the
sum of: (1) the principal amount of all loans, advances or similar extensions of credit included in the North America ABL Obligations (including unreimbursed amounts drawn on letters of credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of outstanding
letters of credit), and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (but excluding any prepayment penalties or premiums), (2) the net aggregate amount then owing to counterparties under Hedging Agreements which
constitutes a portion of the North America ABL Obligations (including all amounts owing to the counterparties as a result of the termination (or early termination) thereof), if any, and (3) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and other
amounts owed to the North America ABL Claimholders under the applicable North America ABL Loan Documents on the date of purchase to the extent not allocable to any Excess North America ABL Obligations. 

  
 46 

 (b) Upon receipt by the North America ABL Claimholders of irrevocable written notice from one or
more of the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders electing to exercise the right to purchase the North America ABL Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7 (the “Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders”), the North
America ABL Claimholders shall sell the North America ABL Obligations to the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders and the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter. The purchase and sale of the North America ABL Obligations shall be
made pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to the North America ABL Agent(s) under the applicable North America ABL Loan Documents evidencing such North America ABL Obligations and the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, which
documents shall require that in addition to paying the Purchase Price the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall also furnish cash collateral to the North America ABL Claimholders in such amounts (not to exceed 105% thereof) as the
relevant North America ABL Claimholders determine is reasonably necessary to such North America ABL Claimholders in connection with any North America ABL Obligations relating to outstanding and undrawn letters of credit, if any. If the North America
ABL Claimholders deliver written notice to the Notes Collateral Trustee requesting that the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders notify the North America ABL Claimholders if the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders intend to exercise the right to
purchase the North America ABL Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7, then the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall have ten (10) Business Days to deliver written notice thereof to the North America ABL Claimholders. If,
following delivery of such notice from the North America ABL Claimholders, the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders do not elect to exercise the right to purchase the North America ABL Obligations within such period, the North America ABL Claimholders
shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7 and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the North America ABL Loan Documents evidencing the North America ABL Obligations and this
Agreement. Each North America ABL Claimholder will retain all rights to indemnification provided in the relevant ABL Loan Documents evidencing the North America ABL Obligations for all claims and other amounts relating to periods prior to the
purchase of the North America ABL Obligations pursuant to this Section 5.7. 
 (c) The purchase and sale of the North America
ABL Obligations under this Section 5.7 will be without recourse and without representation or warranty of any kind by the North America ABL Claimholders, except that the North America ABL Claimholders shall severally and not jointly
represent and warrant to the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders that on the date of such purchase, immediately before giving effect to the purchase: 

(i) the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on the North America ABL Obligations, and the fees and expenses thereof
owed to the respective North America ABL Claimholders, are as stated in any assignment agreement prepared in connection with the purchase and sale of the North America ABL Obligations; and 

(ii) each North America ABL Claimholder owns the North America ABL Obligations purported to be owned by it free and clear of
any Liens (other than participation interests not prohibited by the North America ABL Loan Documents 

  
 47 

 
evidencing such North America ABL Obligations, in which case the Purchase Price will be appropriately adjusted so that the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders do not pay amounts
represented by participation interests to the extent that the Electing Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders expressly assume the obligations under such participation interests). 

SECTION VI 
 INSOLVENCY
OR LIQUIDATION PROCEEDINGS 
 6.1 Finance and Sale Issues. 

(a) Until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, if any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation
Proceeding and the North America ABL Agent shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting North America ABL Priority Collateral or proceeds thereof
or to permit any Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the North America ABL Claimholders or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”), then the Notes
Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, agrees that it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meet the following
requirements: (i) the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of North America ABL Obligations plus the aggregate face amount of any letters of credit issued and not
reimbursed under the North America ABL Credit Agreement does not exceed the North America ABL Cap Amount plus $16,500,000; (ii) the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders retain the right to object to
any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests; and (iii) the terms of the DIP Financing (a) do not compel the applicable Grantor to seek
confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization which impairs the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations under Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law and (b) any Lien on the Notes Priority Collateral to secure such
DIP Financing is subordinate to the Lien of the Notes Collateral Trustee with respect thereto. To the extent the Liens securing the North America ABL Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing which meets the requirements
of clauses (i) through (iii) above, the Notes Collateral Trustee will subordinate its Liens in the North America ABL Priority Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and will
not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the North America ABL Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3). 

(b) Until the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Company or any other Grantor shall be subject to any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Notes Collateral Trustee shall desire to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting Notes Priority Collateral or
proceeds thereof or to permit any Grantor to obtain DIP Financing, whether from the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders or any other Person, then the North America ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the other North America ABL Claimholders, agrees
that it will raise no objection to 

  
 48 

 
such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing so long as such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing meet the following requirements: (i) the North America ABL Agent and the other North America
ABL Claimholders retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding the Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests; and (ii) the terms of the DIP Financing
(a) do not compel the applicable Grantor to seek confirmation of a specific plan of reorganization which impairs the North America ABL Obligations under Section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law and (b) any Lien
on the North America ABL Priority Collateral to secure such DIP Financing is subordinate to the Lien of the North America ABL Agent with respect thereto. To the extent the Liens securing the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations are subordinated to or
pari passu with such DIP Financing which meets the requirements of clauses (i) through (ii) above, the North America ABL Agent will subordinate its Liens in the Notes Priority Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP
Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the Notes Collateral Trustee or to the extent permitted by
Section 6.3). 
 6.2 Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Prior Lien Obligations has occurred, the
Subordinated Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall (i) seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Subordinated Lien Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Prior Lien Agent, unless a motion for adequate protection permitted under Section 6.3 has been denied by a bankruptcy court
or (ii) oppose (or support any other Person in opposing) any request by the Prior Lien Agent for relief from such stay with respect to Prior Lien Collateral. 

6.3 Adequate Protection. 

(a) Until the Discharge of Prior Lien Obligations has occurred, the Subordinated Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated
Lien Claimholders, agrees that none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting): 
 (i) any request by the
Prior Lien Agent or the other Prior Lien Claimholders for adequate protection under any Bankruptcy Law with respect to Prior Lien Collateral; or 

(ii) any objection by the Prior Lien Agent or the other Prior Lien Claimholders to any motion, relief, action or proceeding
based on the Prior Lien Agent or the other Prior Lien Claimholders claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to Prior Lien Collateral. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, if the Prior Lien
Claimholders (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection with respect to Prior Lien Collateral in the form of additional collateral in connection with any Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing, then the Subordinated Lien Agent, on behalf
of itself or any of the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the Liens securing the Prior Lien Obligations and such Cash
Collateral use or 

  
 49 

 
DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Subordinated Lien Obligations are so subordinated to the Prior Lien Obligations under this
Agreement; and 
 (c) The Subordinated Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders, agrees that notice
of a hearing to approve DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral on an interim basis shall be adequate if delivered to the Subordinated Lien Agent at least two (2) Business Days in advance of such hearing and that notice of a hearing to approve
DIP Financing or use of Cash Collateral on a final basis shall be adequate if delivered to the Subordinated Lien Agent at least fifteen (15) days in advance of such hearing. 

6.4 Avoidance Issues. If any Prior Lien Claimholder is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over
or otherwise pay to the estate of the Company (by reason of an antecedent transaction, or otherwise) or any other Grantor any amount paid in respect of Prior Lien Obligations (a “Recovery”), then such Prior Lien Claimholders shall
be entitled to a reinstatement of Prior Lien Obligations with respect to all such recovered amounts on the date of such Recovery, and from and after the date of such reinstatement the Discharge of Prior Lien Obligations shall be deemed not to have
occurred for all purposes hereunder. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or
otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto from such date of reinstatement. 
 6.5 Reorganization Securities. If, in any
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization, arrangement, compromise or liquidation or similar
dispositive restructuring plan, both on account of Prior Lien Obligations and on account of Subordinated Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the Prior Lien Obligations and on account of the
Subordinated Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt
obligations. 
 6.6 Post-Petition Interest. Neither the Subordinated Lien Agent nor any other Subordinated Lien Claimholder shall
oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Prior Lien Agent or any other Prior Lien Claimholder for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Prior Lien Obligations consisting of Post-Petition Interest or any claim under
Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or similar Bankruptcy Law or otherwise to the extent of the value of any Prior Lien Claimholder’s Lien on Prior Lien Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Subordinated Lien
Agent on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders on such Collateral. 
 6.7 Waiver. The Subordinated Lien
Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders, waives any claim it may hereafter have against any Prior Lien Claimholder arising out of the election of any Prior Lien Claimholder of the application of
Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law, and/or out of any cash collateral or financing arrangement or out of any grant of a security interest in connection with the Prior Lien Collateral in any Insolvency or
Liquidation Proceeding so long as such actions are not in express contravention of the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 50 

 6.8 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. The Notes Collateral Trustee
for itself and on behalf of the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, the North America ABL Agent for itself and on behalf of the other North America ABL Claimholders, acknowledges and agrees that: 

(a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the North America ABL Collateral Documents and the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Collateral Documents
constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens; and 
 (b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral,
the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations are fundamentally different from each of the North America ABL Obligations and the Excess North America ABL Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an
Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. 
 To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence,
if it is held that the claims of the North America ABL Claimholders on the one hand, and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, on the other hand in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior
and junior secured claims), then each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.1 and 4.1, all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of secured claims against Grantors in
respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Prior Lien Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Subordinated Lien Claimholders), the Prior Lien Claimholders
shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing (or that would be owing if there were such separate classes of senior and junior secured
claims) in respect of Post-Petition Interest, including any additional interest payable pursuant to the Prior Lien Loan Documents, arising from or related to a default, which is disallowed as a claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding)
before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Subordinated Lien Claimholders with respect to the Prior Lien Collateral, with the Subordinated Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders,
hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Prior Lien Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Prior Lien Claimholders, Collateral or proceeds of Prior Lien Collateral otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary
to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Subordinated Lien Claimholders). 

6.9 Effectiveness in Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement is a “subordination
agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, any similar Bankruptcy Law or the PPSA, which will be effective before, during and after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references in this Agreement
to the Company or any Grantor will include such Person as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Person in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. 

  
 51 

 6.10 Asset Dispositions. 

(a) Until the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has occurred, the Notes Collateral Trustee, for itself and on behalf of the other
Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders will not seek consultation rights in connection with, and will not object or oppose (or support any
Person in objecting or opposing) a motion for any Disposition of any North America ABL Priority Collateral free and clear of the Liens of Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders or other claims under Sections 363,
365, 1129 or 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar Bankruptcy Law (and including any motion for bid procedures or other procedures related to the Disposition that is the subject of such motion), and shall be deemed to have consented to any
such Disposition of any North America ABL Priority Collateral under Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or similar Bankruptcy Law that has been consented to by the North America ABL Agent; provided that the proceeds of such Disposition
of any Collateral to be applied to the North America ABL Obligations, the Excess North America ABL Obligations or the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations are applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2. 

(b) Until the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations has occurred, the North America ABL Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other
North America ABL Claimholders, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the North America ABL Claimholders will not seek consultation rights in connection with, and will not object or oppose (or support any Person in
objecting or opposing), a motion to any Disposition of any Notes Priority Collateral free and clear of the Liens of the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders or other claims under Sections 363, 365, 1129 or 1141 of the
Bankruptcy Code, or any similar Bankruptcy Law (and including any motion for bid procedures or other procedures related to the Disposition that is the subject of such motion), and shall be deemed to have consented to any such Disposition of any
Notes Priority Collateral under Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law that has been consented to by the Notes Collateral Trustee; provided that the proceeds of such Disposition of any Collateral to be
applied to the North America ABL Obligations, the Excess North America ABL Obligations or the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations are applied in accordance with Sections 4.1 and 4.2. 

(c) The Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders agree that the North America ABL Claimholders shall have the right to credit bid under
Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law with respect to any Disposition of the North America ABL Priority Collateral and the North America ABL Claimholders agree that the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall have
the right to credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law with respect to any Disposition of the Notes Priority Collateral; provided that the Claimholders shall not be deemed to have agreed to any
credit bid by other Claimholders in connection with the Disposition of Collateral consisting of both Notes Priority Collateral and ABL Priority Collateral. The Notes Collateral Trustee, for itself and on behalf of the other Notes Pari Passu Lien
Claimholders, agrees that, so long as the Discharge of North America ABL Obligations has not occurred, no Notes Claimholder shall, without the prior written consent of the North America ABL Agent, credit bid under Section 363(k) of the
Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law with respect to the North America ABL 

  
 52 

 
Priority Collateral. The North America ABL Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other North America ABL Claimholders, agrees that, so long as the Discharge of Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations
has not occurred, no North America ABL Claimholder shall, without the prior written consent of the Notes Collateral Trustee, credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law with respect to the Notes Priority
Collateral. 
 6.11 Plan of Reorganization. In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding involving any Grantor, no North America ABL
Claimholder or Notes Claimholder shall be prevented by this Agreement from exercising its rights to vote in favor of or against, or object to or contest, any plan of reorganization in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. 

SECTION VII 
 RELIANCE;
WAIVERS; ETC. 
 7.1 Reliance. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the North America ABL Agent, on behalf of
itself and the other North America ABL Claimholders, acknowledges that it and such ABL Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder, and based on documents and information
deemed by them appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the North America ABL Loan Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not
taking any action under the North America ABL Loan Documents or this Agreement. Other than any reliance on the terms of this Agreement, the Notes Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, acknowledges
that it and such Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders have, independently and without reliance on the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder, and based on documents and information deemed by them appropriate, made their own
credit analysis and decision to enter into each of the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents and be bound by the terms of this Agreement and they will continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under the
Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents or this Agreement (it being understood that the Notes Collateral Trustee and Trustee have not and will not make any credit analysis regarding the Indenture Parties or the Collateral). 

7.2 No Warranties or Liability. The North America ABL Agent, on behalf of itself and the other North America ABL Claimholders,
acknowledges and agrees that each of the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders have made no express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness,
collectability or enforceability of any of the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents, the ownership of any Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders
will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate. The Notes
Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, acknowledges and agrees that each of the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders have made no express or implied representation or
warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality,

 7.4 Obligations Unconditional. All rights,
interests, agreements and obligations of the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders and the Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, respectively, hereunder shall remain in full force
and effect irrespective of:

Passu Lien Debt Documents; 
 (b) except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, any change in the time, manner or place of

 SECTION VIII 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 8.1
Integration/Conflicts. This Agreement, the North America ABL Loan Documents and the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents represent the entire agreement of the Grantors, the North America ABL Claimholders and the Notes Pari Passu Lien
Claimholders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supercede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no promises, undertakings,
representations or warranties by the North America ABL Claimholders or the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders relative to the subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the North America ABL Loan Documents or the Indenture Pari Passu Lien Debt Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control. 

8.2 Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered
by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the North America ABL Claimholders and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders may continue, at any time and without notice to any other Agent or any other Claimholder,
to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Grantor in reliance hereof. Each of the North America ABL Agent and the Notes Collateral Trustee, on behalf of itself and the other
North America ABL Claimholders and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, respectively, hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall
survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. All references to the Company or any other Grantor shall include the Company or such
Grantor as debtor and debtor-in-possession and any 

  
 57 

 
receiver, trustee or similar Person for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further
force and effect: 
 (a) with respect to the North America ABL Agent, the other North America ABL Claimholders, the North America ABL
Obligations and the Excess North America ABL Obligations, the date on which the North America ABL Obligations and the Excess North America ABL Obligations are no longer secured by, or required to be secured by, any of the Collateral, subject to the
rights of the North America ABL Claimholders under Section 6.4; and 
 (b) with respect to the Notes Collateral Trustee, the
other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations, the date on which the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations are no longer secured by, or required to be secured by, any of the Collateral, subject to the rights of the
Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders under Section 6.4. 
 8.3 Amendments; Waivers. No amendment, modification or waiver of
any of the provisions of this Agreement by the Notes Collateral Trustee or the North America ABL Agent shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if
any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the other Grantors shall not have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent its rights are directly and adversely
affected. 
 8.4 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 

(a) The North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders, on the one hand, and the Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders and
the Notes Collateral Trustee, on the other hand, shall each not be responsible for keeping any other party informed of (i) the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors of the North America ABL
Obligations, the Excess North America ABL Obligations or the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations and (ii) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the North America ABL Obligations, the Excess North America ABL Obligations
or the Notes Pari Passu Lien Obligations. The North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders shall have no duty to advise the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder of information known to it or them regarding
such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. The Notes Collateral Trustee and the other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders shall have no duty to advise the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder of information
known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. 

  
 58 

 (b) In the event the North America ABL Agent or any of the other North America ABL Claimholders,
in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Notes Collateral Trustee or any other Notes Claimholder, it or they shall be under no obligation: 

(i) to make, and the North America ABL Agent and the other North America ABL Claimholders shall not make, any express or
implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided; 

(ii) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion; 

(iii) to undertake any investigation; or 

(iv) to disclose any information, which pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to
maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential. 
 (c) In the event the Notes Collateral Trustee or any of the
other Notes Pari Passu Lien Claimholders, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the North America ABL Agent or any other North America ABL Claimholder, it or they shall be
under no obligation:

not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided; 

(ii) to provide any additional information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion; 

(iii) to undertake any investigation; or 

(iv) to disclose any information, which pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance practices, such party wishes to
maintain confidential or is otherwise required to maintain confidential. 
 8.5 Subrogation. With respect to the value of any
payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any of the Subordinated Lien Agent or the Subordinated Lien Claimholders pays over to the Prior Lien Agent or the Prior Lien Claimholders under the terms of this Agreement, the
Subordinated Lien Agent and the Subordinated Lien Claimholders shall be subrogated to the rights of the Prior Lien Agent and the Prior Lien Claimholders; provided that the Subordinated Lien Agent, on behalf of itself and the other
Subordinated Lien Claimholders, hereby agrees not to assert or enforce all such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any payment hereunder until the Discharge of Prior Lien Obligations has occurred. The Company and the other Grantors
acknowledge and agree that the value of any payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets received by the Subordinated Lien Agent or the other Subordinated Lien Claimholders that are paid over to the Prior Lien Agent or the other Prior
Lien Claimholders pursuant to this Agreement shall not reduce any of the Subordinated Lien Obligations.

 1.1 This agreement shall be the basis for receivables purchase
agreements entered into by the ORIGINATOR as seller and GE CAPITAL as purchaser of the relevant Receivable.

	2.	Receivables Purchase Agreement, Receivables Notification, Offer Letter 

 2.1
The ORIGINATOR hereby offers to sell all of its Receivables to GE CAPITAL. 
 The ORIGINATOR repeats each offer in respect of each individual
Receivable by sending a Receivables Notification to GE CAPITAL. 
 2.2 Each relevant receivables purchase agreement shall be concluded
by GE CAPITAL’s acceptance of the ORIGINATOR’s offer. 
 Acceptance occurs by booking the relevant Receivable on the Factoring
Account, without requirement of the ORIGINATOR receiving a notice of such book entry. 
 2.3 The ORIGINATOR is entitled and obliged
to send a Receivables Notification to GE CAPITAL within ten (10) Business Days after having dispatched the invoice to the relevant Debtor and the Receivable becoming Eligible. 

2.4 The ORIGINATOR is obliged to submit the Receivables Notification by data transfer in accordance with Factoring-Satzaufbau or
online data entry in Factorlink. 
 In addition, the ORIGINATOR is obliged to send a completed and legally signed Offer Letter,
preferably in the form of a pdf-file or in a similar format together with the Receivables Notification. 
  

	3.	Obligation to Purchase 

 3.1 GE CAPITAL shall accept the ORIGINATOR’s offer to sell a
Receivable if the relevant Receivable fulfils the following requirements: 
  

	(a)	the Receivables Notification is correct and complete and was dispatched by the ORIGINATOR within the time line set out in clause 2.3; and 

 

	(b)	the relevant Receivable is Eligible; and 

  

	(c)	the Debtor has been granted a payment term not exceeding 90 days after the relevant invoice date; and 

  

	(d)	the relevant Receivable is not a claim against an Affiliated Company; and 

  

	(e)	the relevant Receivable is within the scope of the Debtor Limit. To the extent that this requirement is only partially fulfilled, GE CAPITAL shall purchase the relevant part of the Receivable; and

  

	(f)	the sum of the amount of the relevant Receivable and all other purchased and unpaid Receivables against the relevant Debtor or debtor credit unit – within the meaning of § 19 of the German
Banking Act – does not exceed 40% of all purchased and unpaid Receivables of the ORIGINATOR against all of his Debtors; and 

  

	(g)	the legal relationship from which the Receivable arises is governed by German law. However, in respect of the relevant member of the Alcoa group, GE CAPITAL shall also accept offers to sell, if the legal
relationship is governed by Swiss law provided that such Receivable is not subject to Swiss VAT and that the relevant member of the Alcoa group has consented to an assignment to GE Capital in a form reasonably satisfactory to GE CAPITAL; and

  

	(h)	the payment of the purchase price in respect of the purchased Receivable will not result in an excess of the Maximum Commitment. 

3.2 GE CAPITAL shall become obliged to purchase a Receivable if a Receivable that was initially not purchased subsequently fulfils the
requirements set out in clause 3.1. 
 3.3 GE CAPITAL will cease to be obliged to purchase any Receivable if based on the facts available to GE
CAPITAL, there is reason to believe that the ORIGINATOR does not comply with its obligations vis-à-vis Retaining Suppliers or that Retaining Suppliers revoke the authorisation of the ORIGINATOR to collect Receivables.

 3.4 GE CAPITAL is entitled but not obliged to purchase Receivables which do not fulfil the requirements set out in clause 3.1. In relation
to Receivables existing on the Commencement Date, GE CAPITAL will only exercise such right in respect of Receivables which have not been due for more than 60 days. 

3.5 GE CAPITAL will, upon receipt of the relevant Receivables Notification, book all Receivables which have not been purchased to the
Special Account. Such Receivables shall continue to be offered for sale.

 3.6 The ORIGINATOR’s offer expires only after a period of ten (10) Business Days set by
the ORIGINATOR for GE CAPITAL’s acceptance of such offer has lapsed to no avail. 
  

	4.	Purchase Price, Due Date, Reserves, Factoring Commission, Interest 

 4.1 The
purchase price for each purchased Receivable shall be equal to its Nominal Amount, reduced by deductions relating to the relevant Receivable (such as discounts) that were granted to the relevant Debtor by the ORIGINATOR,
less the Factoring Commission and Interest. 
 In the Bad Debt Case, the purchase price is reduced by the VAT amount included in the
Receivable which the ORIGINATOR must claim from the tax authorities (see clause 6.4). 
 The purchase price (excluding the Purchase Price
Reserve and subject to the settlement of Interest) shall fall due when the Receivable is purchased. Interest will be charged monthly in arrears. 

Any payments in respect of the purchase price and any charges are made by book entry by GE CAPITAL on the Settlement Account. 

4.2 The Purchase Price Reserve shall fall due if and when 
  

	(a)	the Debtor has fully paid the relevant Receivable to GE CAPITAL, but in the Inter-Credit®-Factoring procedure, only after Reconciliation
Process, or 

  

	(b)	it falls due as a Bad Debt Amount (see clause 6.3). 

 If the Debtor makes deductions which are
less than the Purchase Price Reserve for the relevant Receivable, the Purchase Price Reserve (reduced by such deductions) will be credited to the Settlement Account. If the deductions exceed the Purchase Price
Reserve, the Settlement Account will be debited accordingly. 
 4.3 GE CAPITAL shall be entitled to increase the Purchase Price
Reserve beyond the agreed amount if and to the extent that GE CAPITAL has, based on the facts available to it, reason to believe (soweit für GE CAPITAL Tatsachen die Annahme rechtfertigen) that 

 

	(a)	the ORIGINATOR will not comply with material obligations vis-à-vis GE CAPITAL, in particular because the ORIGINATOR has suffered a financial collapse or such an event is imminent, or 

 

	(b)	the Purchase Price Reserve is not sufficient to adequately cover invoice reductions by Debtors and credit notes of the ORIGINATOR. 

4.4 In the event of a Notification of Dispute, GE CAPITAL shall, until this matter is settled, be entitled to set aside a
Special Purchase Price Reserve and to debit the Settlement Account accordingly. 
 GE CAPITAL will credit the Special Purchase Price
Reserve to the Settlement Account again if and to the extent that it has been established by final and non-appealable judgement, or the Debtor has acknowledged, or the ORIGINATOR has provided evidence, that the relevant
Receivable is Eligible. If and to the extent that it is established by final and non-appealable judgement that the relevant Receivable is not Eligible, GE CAPITAL will exercise its rights pursuant to clause 5.1 will
cancel such Receivable as uncollectible from the books in the relevant amount. 
 4.5 To the extent that GE CAPITAL is liable for
VAT contained in the relevant Receivable because the ORIGINATOR did not pay, or not fully pay VAT when due, GE CAPITAL may pay an amount equal to such liability to the tax authorities. 

Such payment shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of the purchase price for the relevant Receivable by GE CAPITAL to the ORIGINATOR. 

If such a liability is imminent, GE CAPITAL is entitled to establish a reserve in such amount until the matter of liability has been resolved. 

If GE CAPITAL already paid the relevant part of the purchase price in accordance with clause 4.1, the ORIGINATOR undertakes to repay the amount payable by GE
CAPITAL to the tax authorities/the respective reserve to GE CAPITAL. GE CAPITAL is entitled to debit the Settlement Account accordingly. 
 The
ORIGINATOR is obliged, upon request and in respect of each Receivable, to inform GE CAPITAL about the following: 
  

	(a)	all overdue VAT liabilities; 

  

	(b)	all VAT filings; 

  

	(c)	all payments in respect of VAT.

	5.	Guarantee of Dilution Risk, Obligations of the ORIGINATOR regarding Receivables 

5.1 The ORIGINATOR represents and warrants (by way of an independent guarantee) that each purchased Receivable is and will continue to be
Eligible until it is fully collected by GE CAPITAL (Guarantee of Dilution Risk). 
 In the event of a breach of such guarantee, GE CAPITAL may
require the reinstatement of the contractually stipulated condition (cure). If this is not possible or unreasonable, or a deadline set for such reinstatement has lapsed unsuccessfully, GE CAPITAL may reduce the purchase price, rescind from the
receivable purchase and/or, in the event of negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the ORIGINATOR, claim indemnification for damages. 
 5.2
If a Debtor claims that the relevant Receivable is not Eligible, the ORIGINATOR must inform GE CAPITAL by sending a Notification of Dispute without undue delay. The ORIGINATOR is further obliged to clarify the matter
and, following clarification, to issue a credit note, where applicable. 
 5.3 The ORIGINATOR must forward to GE CAPITAL all payments received by it
from Debtors without undue delay. 
  

	6.	Bad Debt Coverage of GE CAPITAL 

 6.1 GE CAPITAL assumes the Bad Debt
Coverage for each purchased Receivable, to the extent that such purchased Receivable is Eligible. 
 6.2 The
Bad Debt Case occurs if the Debtor 
  

	(a)	fails to pay a Receivable within 120 days after its due date without disputing its obligation to pay in a substantiated manner prior to or after the expiry of such period; or 

 

	(b)	is Unable to Pay. 

 6.3 The Bad Debt Amount is settled promptly after the
occurrence of the Bad Debt Case, but not before the expiration of a 120-day-period after the due date of the Receivable. 
 6.4 If the
ORIGINATOR already paid VAT for the relevant Receivable and the tax authorities legitimately refuse to refund/offset such VAT, GE CAPITAL is obliged to pay that part of the purchase price as well (see clause 4.1 paragraph 2). 

 

	7.	Debtor Limit, Discretionary Debtor Limit 

 7.1 At the ORIGINATOR’s
request, GE CAPITAL sets Debtor Limits at its reasonable discretion on the basis of the relevant Debtor’s creditworthiness and reliability. 

GE CAPITAL is likewise entitled to modify (including cancellation) Debtor Limits at any time. Such modification does neither apply to purchased
Receivables nor to Receivables for which the ORIGINATOR has already provided the consideration before having received the modification notice, and where such consideration cannot be reclaimed. 

7.2 Until revocation of such right by GE CAPITAL, the ORIGINATOR is entitled to set a Discretionary Debtor Limit. 

Any Discretionary Debtor Limit becomes effective unless GE CAPITAL objects to it without undue delay. 

The ORIGINATOR determines the amount of any Discretionary Debtor Limit, which is limited, however, to an amount equal to the maximum amount for
Discretionary Debtor Limits pursuant to schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions), in accordance with the following provisions: 
  

	(a)	If the ORIGINATOR delivered goods to a Debtor at least twice within the preceding twelve-month period and the Debtor duly paid for such goods within 60 days after the relevant due date of the Receivable,
the ORIGINATOR may set a Debtor Limit for such Debtor of up to 150% of the sum of all unpaid Receivables owing from such Debtor to the ORIGINATOR at a particular point in time during the aforementioned twelve-month period;

  

	(b)	In all other cases, the amount of the Debtor Limit must be justifiable beyond doubt by information (not older than twelve (12) months) provided by a commercial inquiry agency or a bank. 

7.3 At GE CAPITAL’s request, the ORIGINATOR must provide information about the satisfaction of the requirements set out in clause 7.2 (a) or
7.2 (b), as the case may be, in respect of the Discretionary Debtor Limit and submit the relevant documents. 
 7.4 GE CAPITAL may always
replace any Discretionary Debtor Limits by Debtor Limits set by itself.

 7.5 The amount of the fee charged by GE CAPITAL to establish a Debtor Limit is set out in schedule
1 (Terms and Conditions). Discretionary Debtor Limits are free of charge. 
  

	8.	Non-Purchased Receivables, Set-Off Right, Administration Fee 

 8.1 GE CAPITAL
also collects Receivables, which have not been purchased. To the extent that the relevant authorisation does not arise from clause 9, the ORIGINATOR hereby authorises GE CAPITAL to collect such Receivables. 

8.2 Any payments made by Debtors in respect of such Receivables shall be credited to the Settlement Account, but in the Inter-Credit®-Factoring only after the Reconciliation Process. 
 Clause 4.5 shall apply mutatis
mutandis to any VAT amount which is contained in the relevant Receivables. 
 GE CAPITAL is entitled to set off the proceeds from the collection of
Receivables, which have not been purchased against its claims vis-à-vis the ORIGINATOR. To the extent that such counter-claims do not arise from the balance of the Settlement Account, the proceeds will be made available to the
ORIGINATOR as part of the credit balance on the Settlement Account. The rights of Retaining Suppliers shall not be affected thereby. 
 8.3
GE CAPITAL shall receive an Administration Fee as set out in schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions) for the administration of Receivables, which have not been purchased. The Administration Fee shall fall due when
the relevant Receivable is booked to the Special Account and will be charged to the Settlement Account. 
  

	B.	ASSIGNMENT AND SECURITY 

  

	9.	Assignment of Receivables, Legal Cause 

 9.1 The ORIGINATOR hereby assigns
any and all Receivables to GE CAPITAL. GE CAPITAL hereby accepts such assignment. 
 9.2 The legal cause for the assignment of each purchased
Receivable is the relevant receivables purchase agreement. 
 The assignment of Receivables, which have not been purchased and the proceeds resulting
from the collection of any Receivables, which have not been purchased shall secure any and all existing and future claims which GE CAPITAL may have against the ORIGINATOR in connection with their overall business relationship. 

For each Receivable that has already been assigned to GE CAPITAL at the time of the purchase by GE CAPITAL, the legal cause for such assignment shall
be replaced by the relevant receivables purchase agreement (purchase of the relevant Receivable as opposed to assignment for security purposes). 

9.3 In respect of Receivables which have not been purchased, the following provisions shall apply: 

The assignment shall not include Receivables that the ORIGINATOR assigned or will assign to Retaining Suppliers in connection with an extended
retention of title arrangement (partial in rem waiver of rights). If and to the extent that the extended retention of title subsequently ceases to exist, the assignment of relevant Receivable shall become valid and effective. 

Clause 11.3 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the limitation of the claim to demand security and the obligation to release security. 

9.4 To the extent that the assignment pursuant to clause 9.1 does not result in the valid and unchallengeable ownership of GE CAPITAL in a purchased
Receivable, the following provision shall apply: Subject to the condition precedent of entering into a respective receivables purchase agreement, the ORIGINATOR hereby assigns the relevant Receivable to GE CAPITAL and GE CAPITAL hereby
accepts such assignment. 
  

	10.	Cheques, Direct Debit, Bills of Exchange 

 10.1 If the ORIGINATOR receives payments
in respect of Receivables in any other form (in particular by way of bill of exchange or cheque), GE CAPITAL and the ORIGINATOR hereby agree that title to such instruments will transfer to GE CAPITAL as soon as the ORIGINATOR acquires title.
Furthermore, the ORIGINATOR hereby assigns to GE CAPITAL any and all rights arising from such instruments. GE CAPITAL hereby accepts such assignments. 

The delivery of any cheques and bills of exchange, which may at any time be in the ORIGINATOR’s direct possession to GE CAPITAL is replaced by the
ORIGINATOR keeping such instruments on trust and in gratuitous custody for GE CAPITAL. If the ORIGINATOR does not acquire direct possession, it hereby assigns to GE CAPITAL its present and future claims for restitution against third parties. GE
CAPITAL hereby accepts such assignments.

 Page 3 of 11 

 10.2 The ORIGINATOR shall deliver and, to - the extent necessary - endorse the instruments and any
documents relating thereto to GE CAPITAL without undue delay. Until delivery to GE CAPITAL, the ORIGINATOR must take all steps that are necessary to preserve the rights resulting from such instruments. 

The ORIGINATOR hereby authorises GE CAPITAL to sign bills of exchange on behalf of the ORIGINATOR as drawer and to endorse bills of exchange and cheques in
the ORIGINATOR’s name. 
 10.3 GE CAPITAL shall be entitled but not obliged to credit directly, but subject to their respective cashing, any
equivalent amounts of cheques, debit entries and bills of exchange. If the relevant instruments are not irrevocably cashed, the underlying Receivable shall be treated as if it had originally not been paid. 

 

	11.	Liens and Ancillary Rights, Insurance and Central Settlement Claims 

 11.1 The
ORIGINATOR hereby transfers to GE CAPITAL, who accepts such transfer, any and all present and future rights and claims (other than the Receivable itself) arising under or in connection with the relevant contract with the Debtor,
including 
  

	(a)	all ownership and inchoate rights in the underlying assets with respect to assigned Receivables that the ORIGINATOR may have or acquire, which are particularly set out in invoices relating to assigned
Receivables, provided that the ORIGINATOR shall continue to be entitled to resell such assets to the Debtor; 

  

	(b)	any and all claims for delivery of such assets, in particular in the event of an unwinding of the contract, as well as the right to rescind the contract; 

 

	(c)	in the event of a sale by consignment, any claims against the carrier and the right of pursuit; 

  

	(d)	all rights of the ORIGINATOR arising from an extended retention of title arrangement within the meaning of clause 21 (d), in particular, the claim of the Debtor resulting from the resale of the relevant assets;

  

	(e)	the ORIGINATOR’s right to request the insolvency administrator to exercise its rights in an insolvency of the Debtor. 

To the extent that such transfer is subject to specific additional requirements, the ORIGINATOR undertakes to comply with any such requirements in the
required form. 
 To the extent that the ORIGINATOR holds or reacquires direct possession of such assets, the ORIGINATOR shall keep such assets for GE
CAPITAL in gratuitous custody and separate from any other goods and waives any claims for reimbursement of expenses. 
 11.2 The ORIGINATOR and GE
CAPITAL agree that GE CAPITAL acquires a lien and a retention right with respect to the securities and chattels, of which it may have or acquire possession in the course of business with the ORIGINATOR. 

GE CAPITAL also acquires a lien and a retention right with respect to any claims arising from the business relationship (e.g. credit balances) that the
ORIGINATOR has or will acquire against GE CAPITAL. 
 Such liens and the retention right shall secure all existing, future and contingent claims of GE
CAPITAL against the ORIGINATOR arising from the business relationship. 
 If GE CAPITAL acquires control over monies or other assets under the condition
that they may only be used for a certain purpose, GE CAPITAL’s lien does not extend to such assets and in this case, GE CAPITAL shall not have a retention right. 

11.3 If the realisable value of all security interests not only temporarily exceeds the total amount of all claims arising from the business
relationship (Cover Limit), GE CAPITAL shall, at the ORIGINATOR’s request, release security interests in the discretion of GE CAPITAL in the amount exceeding the Cover Limit. 

When selecting the security interests to be released, GE CAPITAL will consider the legitimate interests of the ORIGINATOR and any third party that provided
security for the ORIGINATOR’s obligations. 
 11.4 GE CAPITAL will only enforce the security interests if the ORIGINATOR is in payment default
and a grace period of at least two weeks set by GE CAPITAL before the commencement of enforcement actions has expired to no avail.

 The Receivables assigned for security purposes are enforced by collection and the net proceeds resulting
from such enforcement are set off against the ORIGINATOR’s obligations owing to GE CAPITAL. 
 GE CAPITAL will credit the net enforcement proceeds to
the Settlement Account. 
 11.5 If facts emerge which indicate that the payment of a purchased Receivable by the
Debtor may be at risk, the ORIGINATOR must, upon request by and at the expense of GE CAPITAL, take back the relevant goods. 
 GE CAPITAL may
also take possession of the goods or store such goods at a third party’s premises. 
 GE CAPITAL’s Bad Debt Coverage, if applicable, shall
remain unaffected thereby. 
 The realisation of returned goods shall be for the benefit and at the expense of GE CAPITAL who will also determine the method
of enforcement. 
 11.6 The ORIGINATOR shall use its best efforts to support GE CAPITAL without remuneration in enforcing and realising all security
interests, rights and claims. 
 11.7 The ORIGINATOR hereby assigns to GE CAPITAL any and all present and future claims arising from
insurance contracts in respect of the items listed in clause 11.1 (a) and (b). GE CAPITAL hereby accepts such assignment.  
 The
ORIGINATOR hereby assigns to GE CAPITAL any and all present and future claims against Central Settlement Agencies. GE CAPITAL hereby accepts such assignment. 

To the extent that the validity of these assignments depends on other conditions, the ORIGINATOR hereby undertakes to perform the assignment in the required
manner and to obtain any third party consent that may be required. 
  

	C.	FACTORING PROCEDURE 

  

	12.	Full-Service, Inter-Credit®, Smart-Service 

12.1 Schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions) sets out whether the accounts receivable bookkeeping and dunning procedure follow the rules of
Full-Service-Factoring, Inter-Credit®-Factoring or Smart-Service-Factoring. 
  

	12.2	The following rules apply to the bookkeeping: 

 In all instances, the ORIGINATOR transfers the data
relating to Receivables, such as invoices, credit notes, debit notes and Notifications of Dispute by submitting the relevant documents and/or through Factoring-Satzaufbau and/or by manually entering data of invoices/credit notes
online in Factorlink. 
 In the Full-Service-Factoring and Smart-Service-Factoring procedures, the Debtors’ payments are
booked directly by GE CAPITAL to the Debtors’ Accounts. 
 In the
Inter-Credit®-Factoring procedure, the Debtors’ payments shall be booked by GE CAPITAL to the Incoming Payment Settlement Account. Any accounting documents that GE
CAPITAL may have shall be delivered to the ORIGINATOR who books the payments on the debits side and relates them to the relevant invoices. At least once a week, the ORIGINATOR shall send its complete Open Items File to GE CAPITAL through
Factoring-Satzaufbau. Upon receipt of such data, GE CAPITAL will perform a Reconciliation Process and will adjust all other Accounts kept in connection with the factoring arrangement. 

In the Inter-Credit®-Factoring procedure, the ORIGINATOR must keep the accounts receivable
books in such a manner that arrears of postings are avoided and that the Open Items File is correct and up-to-date on a daily basis. 
 12.3
The following rules apply to the dunning procedure: 
 If the Debtor fails to pay the relevant Receivable on the due date, three (3)
dunning runs in cycles of 14 days will generally be performed. If the relevant Receivable is not completely discharged within a period of 60 days after its due date, the Collection Procedure is initiated in accordance with clause 16.

 In the Full-Service-Factoring procedure, GE CAPITAL performs the dunning procedure, in the Smart-Service-Factoring and the Inter-Credit®-Factoring procedures, the ORIGINATOR performs the dunning procedure. 
 In the Inter-Credit®-Factoring and Smart-Service-Factoring procedures, the ORIGINATORS must perform the dunning procedure in such a manner that arrears of reminders are avoided.

	13.	Disclosed / Undisclosed Procedure 

 13.1
Schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions) sets out whether the Disclosed Procedure or the Undisclosed Procedure applies. 
 13.2
In the Disclosed Procedure, the ORIGINATOR will inform its Debtors at the Commencement Date about the factoring procedure and the assignment of Receivables to GE CAPITAL in writing and in the appropriate manner
(letter of notification). 
 Furthermore, the ORIGINATOR will attach to its invoices a clearly visible note of assignment in accordance with schedule
1 (Terms and Conditions). 
 GE CAPITAL is also entitled to inform the Debtors about the factoring arrangement and the assignment and to verify the
relevant Receivables with the Debtors. 
 To the extent that the parties agree on Pledged Accounts, clause 13.3 shall apply mutatis
mutandis. 
 13.3 In the Undisclosed Procedure, the ORIGINATOR shall accept Debtors’ payments by cashless
transactions, if possible, and only into the Pledged Accounts. 
 All invoices and any other relevant correspondence of the ORIGINATOR
vis-à-vis its Debtors shall only specify the Pledged Accounts as the ORIGINATOR’s bank account details. Any Debtors that may have been informed otherwise will be advised accordingly by the ORIGINATOR without undue
delay. 
 The ORIGINATOR undertakes to reset all balances on the Pledged Accounts prior to the Commencement Date. 

The ORIGINATOR will enter into a separate agreement with GE CAPITAL in respect of the Pledged Accounts and will obtain the respective consent of the
account keeping bank. In particular, this agreement shall regulate the following points: 
  

	(a)	Pledge and security purpose: To secure in particular the claim arising from clause 5, and to secure any and all other present and future claims of GE CAPITAL against the ORIGINATOR arising from the business
relationship, the ORIGINATOR shall pledge to GE Capital its claims arising from the Pledged Accounts. The amounts received and standing to the credit of the Pledged Accounts serve for the sole purpose of being transferred to GE
CAPITAL; 

  

	(b)	Collection Arrangement: GE CAPITAL is – in particular prior to the occurrence of an enforcement event – entitled to solely collect the pledged claims. The ORIGINATOR may only demand payment to GE CAPITAL;

  

	(c)	Trust Arrangement: The Pledged Accounts shall be used exclusively to accept payments in respect of Receivables and are held by the ORIGINATOR as trustee for GE CAPITAL in its own name, but for the sole
purpose of creating a security interest for GE CAPITAL (trust arrangement); 

  

	(d)	Notification: The ORIGINATOR undertakes to notify each credit institution that keeps any of the Pledged Accounts of the pledge, the collection arrangement and the trust arrangement; 

 

	(e)	Warranty: The ORIGINATOR warrants by way of an independent guarantee that no third party rights exist with respect to the pledged rights and claims other than a subordinated pledge arising from the account keeping
credit institution’s General Business Conditions, if applicable. 

 13.4 GE CAPITAL is entitled to conduct regular
balance acknowledgement procedures with Debtors. 
 GE CAPITAL will send an account statement setting out the Receivables which, to GE
CAPITAL’s knowledge, are unsettled at the relevant date, including the account balance resulting therefrom, accompanied with a request to the relevant Debtor to confirm the balance set out therein to be accurate and the relevant
Receivables to be Eligible. 
 In the Undisclosed Procedure, the request to confirm the account balances is generally made in the name
of the ORIGINATOR by an auditor appointed by GE CAPITAL as trustee for GE CAPITAL. The ORIGINATOR will grant a relevant power of attorney to the trustee for submission to the Debtor. The trustee will inform GE CAPITAL comprehensively about
the results of the balance acknowledgement procedure. 
  

	14.	Change of Procedure by Partial Termination 

 14.1 GE CAPITAL is entitled to
terminate in writing the Inter-Credit®-Factoring, the Undisclosed Procedure or both in accordance with the following terms (partial termination):

	(a)	an ordinary partial termination by giving a month’s prior notice to the end of each month, 

  

	(b)	an extraordinary partial termination without observation of a termination period, if the conditions of clause 26.2 are fulfilled. 

14.2 Upon effectiveness of a partial termination of the Inter-Credit®-Factoring, the
Factoring Agreement shall continue as Full-Service-Factoring, upon partial termination of the Undisclosed Procedure as Disclosed Procedure, respectively. 

14.3 Upon receipt of an ordinary partial termination pursuant to clause 14.1 (a), the ORIGINATOR is entitled to terminate the Factoring Agreement by
giving five (5) Business Days’ notice prior to the date on which the partial termination takes effect. 
 14.4 At the
ORIGINATOR’s request, GE CAPITAL will not disclose the assignment notwithstanding a termination of the Undisclosed Procedure if and as long as the claims owing to GE CAPITAL arising from the business relationship with the ORIGINATOR are
unappealably repaid. 
 14.5 GE CAPITAL is entitled to terminate the Smart-Service-Factoring by written notice, applying clause 14.1
mutatis mutandis. Upon effectiveness of a partial termination, the Factoring Agreement shall continue as Full-Service-Factoring; clause 14.3 shall also apply mutatis mutandis. 

 

	15.	Quarterly Account Statement, Tacit Ratification, Time Limit for Objections 

15.1 GE CAPITAL shall, within ten (10) days following the end of each calendar quarter, send the Quarterly Account Statement
to the ORIGINATOR. 
 15.2 The ORIGINATOR must raise any objections concerning the incorrectness or incompleteness of a
Quarterly Account Statement no later than six (6) weeks following receipt thereof; if such objections are made in writing, dispatch thereof during the 6-week-period shall suffice. 

Failure to make objections in due time will be considered an approval of the Quarterly Account Statement. When issuing the Quarterly Account
Statement, GE CAPITAL will expressly refer the ORIGINATOR to this consequence. 
 The ORIGINATOR is also entitled to request correction of the
Quarterly Account Statement after the expiry of the 6-week-period, but must prove in that instance that its Account was either unlawfully debited or not credited. 

15.3 To the extent that GE CAPITAL has a repayment claim against the ORIGINATOR, GE CAPITAL may reverse incorrect credit entries on all
Accounts of the ORIGINATOR by way of a debit entry prior to the issue of the next Quarterly Account Statement (reverse entry); in this case, the ORIGINATOR may not object to the debit entry on the grounds of having already disposed of
an amount equivalent to the credit entry. 
 If GE CAPITAL discovers an incorrect credit entry only after a Quarterly Account Statement has
been issued and if GE CAPITAL has a repayment claim against the ORIGINATOR, it will make a correction entry in the amount of such claim. 
 If the
ORIGINATOR objects to the correction entry, GE CAPITAL will re-credit the account with the amount in dispute and pursue its repayment claim separately. 

GE CAPITAL will immediately notify the ORIGINATOR of any reverse entries and correction entries made by it. With respect to the calculation of
Interest, the entries will take retroactive effect to the day on which the incorrect entry was made. 
 16. Collection Procedure

 16.1 If any Receivables remain unsettled after the third dunning letter, GE CAPITAL will initiate the Collection
Procedure. 
 16.2 GE CAPITAL shall inform the ORIGINATOR about any developments in the Collection Procedure if
necessary, and shall, in the event of any disputes raised by the Debtor, give the ORIGINATOR the opportunity to provide comments thereon and introduce such comments in the procedure. GE CAPITAL shall enter into settlement agreements
concerning the Eligibility of any Receivable, or Receivables which have not been purchased only with the consent of the ORIGINATOR. 

Considering the above, the ORIGINATOR acknowledges that the results of a legal proceeding between GE CAPITAL and the Debtor are also binding between GE
CAPITAL and the ORIGINATOR. 
 16.3 GE CAPITAL shall bear the collection costs for purchased and Eligible Receivables, all other costs shall
be borne by the ORIGINATOR.

 16.5 The ORIGINATOR is obliged to provide GE

Following the cancellation of a Debtor Limit, GE CAPITAL may, in relation to the ORIGINATOR, set off payments received from the relevant Debtor against Receivables purchased from such Debtor (irrespective of

 GE CAPITAL - Release:
07/2013 – Germany (Translation 11/2013) 
 Page 6 of 11 

 
GE CAPITAL is entitled to establish a reserve or (at its choice) demand security deposits from the ORIGINATOR in the anticipated amount of the Reimbursement Claims. The ORIGINATOR is
entitled to provide a security deposit in order to discharge a reserve at any time. When determining the anticipated amount of the Reimbursement Claims, future Reimbursement Claims shall also be considered. These are claims that are
certain or likely to arise in the future, but which amount and/or time of origination is still uncertain. To the extent that the determination of such claims depends on future events (e.g. development of sales), the amount shall be determined by way
of estimate, in the absence of other indicators on the basis of historical data. 
 GE CAPITAL determines the amount of Reimbursement Claims
considering all circumstances in its reasonable discretion on a monthly basis, by the end of each month at the latest. 
 Immediately after the end of each
month, the ORIGINATOR shall demonstrate the anticipated amount of Reimbursement Claims in a testable manner. 
 The reserve is established by
debiting the Settlement Account and crediting a Reserve Account by the relevant amount. If the anticipated amount of the Reimbursement Claims is reduced, the Reserve Account will be debited by such reduction and a
respective credit will be booked on the Settlement Account. 
 Security deposits will be provided by payment by the ORIGINATOR to GE CAPITAL, whereby
the amount is credited to the Reserve Account and any dissolution is debited on the Reserve Account and credited on the Settlement Account. 

The reserve and the security deposit shall primarily secure GE CAPITAL against set-offs or settlements by Debtors with Reimbursement Claims. To
the extent that such claims are legally and validly raised, GE CAPITAL is entitled to receive the relevant amounts like Debtors’ payments. 
 In
addition, the reserve and the security deposit shall secure any and all existing and future claims which GE CAPITAL may have against the ORIGINATOR in connection with their business relationship. 

 

	23.	Changes in Interest Rate, Exchange Rate Differences 

 23.1 The
applicable Interest Rate and any changes of Interest Rate during the term of this Agreement are set out in schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions). 

23.2 GE CAPITAL will convert any invoices/credit notes not denominated in Euro at the exchange rate published by the European Central Bank for the

	24.	Fees and Reimbursement of Expenses 

 The amount of fees is set out in schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions).

 If a service provided by GE CAPITAL is required by law or secondary contractual obligation, or is provided in GE CAPITAL’s own interest, such
service will be free of charge, unless the charging of fees is legally permitted and occurs in accordance with the relevant statutory provision. 
 Any
claim of GE CAPITAL for reimbursement of expenses is subject to statutory law. 
  

	25.	Assignability of Claims against GE CAPITAL 

 All present and future claims that the ORIGINATOR may have
against GE CAPITAL may only be assigned to third parties with the express written consent of GE CAPITAL.

cause; such cause will be assumed in particular if GE CAPITAL has reason to believe that the intended assignment would be disadvantageous to suppliers of the ORIGINATOR. 
  

	26.	Commencement, Expiration, Termination 

 26.1 The Commencement Date and
Expiration Date of this agreement are set out in schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions). 
 Unless this agreement is terminated with three
(3) months’ notice prior to its scheduled Expiration Date, it shall be extended by another year. The same shall apply to any subsequent periods. 

26.2 Each party may terminate the factoring agreement for good cause without observing any notice period. Good cause is shown if, considering all
circumstances of the individual case and weighing the interests of both parties, the terminating party cannot reasonably be expected to continue the contractual relationship until the end of the notice period in accordance with clause 26.1. 

 

 If the good cause results from a breach of a contractual obligation, termination shall only be permitted after
expiry of a reasonable period of time set for remedy to no avail, or after a dissuasion has proved to be unsuccessful, unless this proviso can be dispensed with because of the particularities of the individual case. 

GE CAPITAL is in particular entitled to terminate for good cause if 
  

	(a)	the ORIGINATOR is in substantial breach of clause 5, 12, 13, 18 or 19; or 

  

	(b)	the ORIGINATOR made incorrect statements about its financial condition that were of fundamental significance for GE CAPITAL’s decision about risk relevant transactions; or 

 

	(c)	a change of control with respect to the ORIGINATOR occurs, pursuant to which a natural person or legal entity (or group of persons or entities) other than the existing direct or indirect majority shareholder acquires
the majority of the shares or voting rights with respect to the ORIGINATOR without prior written consent of GE CAPITAL; or 

  

	(d)	a substantial deterioration in the ORIGINATOR’s financial condition or of the value of a security interest occurs or threatens to occur which would jeopardize the fulfilment of an obligation vis-à-vis GE
CAPITAL, even if security provided therefore is realised; or 

  

	(e)	the ORIGINATOR fails to comply within a reasonable time period set by GE CAPITAL with its obligation to create security pursuant to this agreement or any other agreement, or 

 

	(f)	if a Cross-Default occurs. 

 Statutory termination rights shall remain unaffected. 

26.3 In the event of a termination without notice period, GE CAPITAL shall grant the ORIGINATOR a reasonable period of time for the winding up unless
an immediate completion is necessary. 
 26.4 Any termination notice must be made in writing. 

26.5 Upon termination of this agreement, all purchase offers, which have not yet been accepted, shall expire. All pending transactions shall be unwound
in accordance with this agreement. 
 GE CAPITAL will, after satisfaction of all of its claims arising from the business relationship with the ORIGINATOR,
reassign to the ORIGINATOR all outstanding Receivables, which have not been purchased.

and this agreement, the provisions of schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions) shall prevail. 
  

	(b)	Schedule 2 (Declaration of Consent) 

 The ORIGINATOR consents to the collection, processing and utilisation of
data by GE CAPITAL, the transfer of data to GE CAPITAL, the transfer of data to third parties in connection with the transfer of rights arising from this agreement and the release of the tax authorities from their professional duty of
confidentiality.

 28.
Governing Law, Jurisdiction 
 28.1 This agreement is governed by German law. 

28.2 The courts in Mainz shall have jurisdiction. 
  

	29.	Severability Clause 

 If any provisions of this agreement or the schedules thereto are or become invalid
in full or in part, the validity of the remaining provisions will not be affected thereby. The invalid provision shall be replaced by the provision which is valid and effective and comes closest to the economic intention of the parties. The same
principles shall apply if this agreement contains a gap. 
 If any in rem transfers (assignments of Receivables or inchoate rights and transfers of
movable assets) should be or become ineffective, GE CAPITAL and the ORIGINATOR are obliged to treat each other as if the relevant transfers were effective. They are further obliged to perform the relevant in rem transfer without undue delay,
observing any requirements which until that time may not have been observed.
