DELAWARE HOLDINGS, INC.

		
	Re:	  	Retaining Holder Securityholders’ Agreement

 Reference is made to the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Business Combination
Agreement”), dated as of October 10, 2013, by and among Platform Acquisition Holdings Limited, a company limited by shares incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“PAHL”),
Platform Delaware Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of PAHL (“Platform Holdco”), Platform Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Platform Holdco
(“Merger Sub”), MacDermid Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MD Holdings”), Tartan Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tartan”), MacDermid, Incorporated, a
Connecticut corporation (the “Company”), and the other parties named therein, pursuant to which, through a series of steps, PAHL will acquire the equity, business and operations of the Company (the “Business
Combination”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Business Combination Agreement. 

The undersigned holder (the “Holder”) of units representing membership interests in MD Holdings (the
“Units”) has elected, pursuant to a letter of transmittal dated on or about the date hereof (the “Letter of Transmittal”), to receive, pursuant to the terms of, and subject to the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by, the Business Combination Agreement, in exchange for the Holder’s Units (which are being surrendered to Platform Holdco pursuant to the Letter of Transmittal) (1) shares of common stock of Platform Holdco (the
“Holdco Shares”) and (2) the undersigned’s pro rata portion of the Contingent Litigation Proceeds and the Contingent Purchase Price, if any. As a condition to Holder’s receipt of the Holdco Shares, the Holder, PAHL
and Platform Holdco agree to the terms, conditions and provisions of this Retaining Holder Securityholders’ Agreement (this “Agreement”). 

1. Descriptions of the Business Combination and Agreements. Any description of the Business Combination and the terms thereof
included in this Agreement or in any other documents provided to the Holder, including, without limitation, the Offering Memorandum dated October 15, 2013, (a) is provided for convenience of reference only, (b) is subject to and
qualified by the detailed provisions in the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which has been provided to Holder, and (c) shall not alter, amend or modify in any manner any term or provision of the Business Combination Agreement or any
other document or agreement referred to therein. 
 2. Restrictions on Transfer. 

2.1 The Holder acknowledges and agrees that, other than the Holder’s right to exchange the Holdco Shares for shares of common stock of
PAHL as described in Section 3 below, the Holdco Shares may not be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred, directly or indirectly, at any time without the prior written consent of Platform Holdco or as expressly permitted pursuant to this
Section 2.1. Accordingly, the Holder agrees that the Holder shall not, without the prior written consent of Platform Holdco, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including by 

 
operation of Law), incur any liens, charges, security interests, options, claims, mortgages, pledges, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, obligations, understandings or arrangements or other
restrictions on title or transfer of any nature whatsoever (collectively, “Liens”), dispose of or otherwise encumber (each, a “Transfer”) any of the Holdco Shares, (b) deposit any of the Holdco Shares received
by Holder into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement, or (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or
undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect Transfer or other disposition of any Holdco Shares or the economic interests thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may Transfer the Holdco Shares to (i) the spouse or former
spouse of the Holder pursuant to a domestic relations order or similar court order upon the divorce of the Holder and his or her spouse and (ii) the Holder’s executors, administrators or testamentary trustees upon the death of Holder;
provided that, in each of cases (i) and (ii), (A) such Transfer does not violate any federal or state securities laws and (B) the respective transferee shall, as a condition to such Transfer, agree in writing to be bound by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 2.2 The Holder further acknowledges and agrees that, without the written consent of PAHL (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, condition or delayed), during each consecutive twelve (12) month period commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing, the Holder may not Transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for
the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a Transfer of, that number of Exchange Shares (as defined below) that exceeds 25% of the total number of Exchange Shares issuable to the Holder
hereunder; provided that, to the extent the Holder has Transferred less than 25% of his Exchange Shares in any such consecutive twelve (12) month period, the number of Exchange Shares less than 25% that may be Transferred may be rolled
over to succeeding twelve (12) month periods such that, after the fourth anniversary of the Closing, the Holder shall be permitted to Transfer all of his, her or its Exchange Shares whenever acquired without PAHL’s agreement. PAHL may
impose stop-transfer instructions and may stamp each certificate representing Exchange Shares with an appropriate legend to enforce the provisions of the foregoing sentence. 

2.3 The restrictions contained in this Section 2 shall apply to any other securities into which the Holdco Shares or Exchange Shares, as
applicable, may be converted or exchanged prior to the expiration of the applicable restriction. 
 2.4 Any Transfer or Lien in violation of
this Section 2 shall be void. 
 3. Exchange of Holdco Shares. 

3.1 The Holder shall have the right (the “Exchange Right”), exercisable at any time following the earlier of (i) the
first anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the consummation of a Change in Control (as defined below) (as applicable, the “Trigger Date”), to exchange all or any portion of the Holder’s Holdco Shares (such Holdco Shares to
be exchanged pursuant hereto, the “Surrendered Shares”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3. Upon the proper exercise of the Exchange Right by the Holder, PAHL shall

  
 - 2 - 

 
exchange the Surrendered Shares for that number of PAHL Ordinary Shares (the “Exchange Shares”) equal to the product of (a) the number of Exchanged Shares, and (b) the
then-current Exchange Rate (as defined below). 
 3.2 As used herein, “Change of Control” shall mean (a) a merger or
consolidation of PAHL with another entity where PAHL is not the surviving entity and where immediately after the merger or consolidation PAHL’s stockholders immediately prior to the merger or consolidation hold less than 50% of the voting stock
of the surviving entity, or (b) the sale of all or substantially all of PAHL’s and its subsidiaries’ assets to a third party if, immediately following such sale, PAHL’s stockholders hold less than 50% of the stock of said third
party; and the “Exchange Rate” shall initially be one (1). In the event PAHL: (a) declares or pays a dividend on the PAHL Ordinary Shares in PAHL Ordinary Shares, (b) splits or subdivides the outstanding PAHL Ordinary
Shares or (c) effects a reverse stock split or otherwise combines the outstanding PAHL Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of PAHL Ordinary Shares, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exchange Rate in effect immediately
prior to such adjustment by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of PAHL Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination (assuming
for such purposes that such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination has occurred as of such time) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the actual number of PAHL Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding on
the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination (assuming for such purposes that such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination has not occurred as of such time). Any
adjustments to the Exchange Rate shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event, retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. 

3.3 In order to exercise the Exchange Right, the Holder shall deliver a written notice (an “Exchange Notice”) to such effect
to PAHL, not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the date as of which the Holder desires the closing (the “Exchange Closing”) of the exchange to occur (but in no event prior to the Trigger Date). At the Exchange Closing,
PAHL shall deliver (or cause the delivery) to the Holder a certificate or evidence of book entry deposits representing the Exchange Shares, against delivery by the Holder to PAHL of stock certificates evidencing the Surrendered Shares, free and
clear of all Liens, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers or other instruments of transfer duly executed in blank, and such other instruments and certificates as may be reasonably requested by PAHL in connection therewith. The
Exchange Closing shall, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Company and the Holder, be held at the principal offices of PAHL, on a date (the “Exchange Closing Date”) selected by PAHL that is no later than five (5) Business
Days following the delivery of the Exchange Notice (subject to PAHL’s receipt on or before the Exchange Closing Date of the certificates and other documents referred to in the immediately preceding sentence). 

4. Rule 144; Registration. 

4.1 Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 above, PAHL shall, at PAHL’s expense, for so long as the Holder holds any Exchange
Shares, cooperate with the 

  
 - 3 - 

 
Holder, as may be reasonably requested by the Holder from time to time, to facilitate any proposed sale of Exchange Shares by the Holder in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any successor rule (“Rule 144”), including, without limitation, by complying with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and
providing opinions of counsel, to the extent required. 
 4.2 Subject to the Holder’s compliance with the provisions of
Section 4.4 below, promptly after the completion of PAHL’s domestication into Delaware, PAHL will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement registering (among other securities)
the resale of the Exchange Shares (the “Registration Statement”). PAHL shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. PAHL shall
notify the Holder as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective and shall simultaneously provide the Holder with copies of any related prospectus to be used in connection with the sale or other disposition of the
securities covered thereby. Subject to this Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 below, PAHL shall (a) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement and any prospectus used in
connection therewith and perform such other actions as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement (or another registration statement that registers the resale of the Exchange Shares) continuously effective as to the Exchange Shares until
the Termination Date (as defined below), and (b) comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and
regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder with respect to the disposition of all Exchange Shares covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods of
disposition by the Holder thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such prospectus as so supplemented. PAHL will pay all expenses associated with the registration pursuant hereto, including filing and printing fees, the
Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Exchange Shares for sale under applicable state securities laws and listing fees, but excluding any fees or expenses incurred by the Holder (including any
counsel to the Holder) and any discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the Exchange Shares being sold. 

4.3 For not more than 30 consecutive days (subject to extension by PAHL by up to an additional 60 days, solely to the extent that PAHL
requires such extension of time to complete financial statements required under applicable Law to be contained in PAHL’s SEC filings) or for a total of not more than 90 days in any 12 month period (but not more than twice in any such 12 month
period), PAHL may suspend the use of any prospectus included in the Registration Statement in the event that PAHL determines in good faith that such suspension is necessary to (a) delay the disclosure of material non-public information
concerning PAHL, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of PAHL, in the best interests of PAHL or (b) amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the related prospectus so that the Registration Statement or
prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the case of the prospectus in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, 

  
 - 4 - 

 
not misleading (an “Allowed Delay”). The Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of an Allowed Delay, the Holder will immediately discontinue disposition
of Exchange Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, until the Holder is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made. 

4.4 The Holder shall furnish in writing to PAHL such information regarding the Holder, the Exchange Shares held by the Holder and the intended
method of disposition thereof as shall be reasonably requested by PAHL to effect the registration of the Exchange Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as PAHL may reasonably request that are customary of a
selling stockholder in similar situations. 
 4.5 PAHL shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, each person who controls the Holder
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the officers, directors, members, managers, stockholders, partners, agents and employees of each of them (each an “Indemnified
Party”), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively,
“Losses”), as incurred, arising out of or relating to (a) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or any prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (b) any violation or alleged violation by PAHL of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the
performance of its obligations under this Agreement; in each case, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statement or omission is based upon information regarding the Holder furnished in writing to PAHL by or on
behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein, or (ii) such information relates to the Holder or the Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Exchange Shares and was approved in writing by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use
in the Registration Statement, such prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. 
 The Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless
PAHL, each director of PAHL, each officer of the Company who shall sign a Registration Statement, each underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of the holders of securities included in a Registration Statement, and each Person
who controls any of the foregoing Persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against any Losses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in a Registration Statement or any prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, but only to the extent that (i) such untrue statement or
omission is based upon information regarding the Holder furnished in writing to PAHL by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein, or (ii) such information relates to the Holder or the Holder’s

  
 - 5 - 

 
proposed method of distribution of Exchange Shares and was approved in writing by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such prospectus or in any amendment
or supplement thereto. 
 If the indemnification provided in this Section 4.5 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to
hold the Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses, then PAHL shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of PAHL and such Indemnified Party in
connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of PAHL and the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, PAHL or the Indemnified Party,
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if any contribution were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, no Indemnified Party shall be
required to contribute pursuant to this paragraph, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Indemnified Party from the sale of the Exchange Shares subject to the proceeding exceeds the
amount of any damages that such Indemnified Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 

4.6 PAHL’s obligations under this Section 4 shall terminate with respect to the Holder on the earlier of (a) the date on which
all of the Holder’s Exchange Shares have been sold, and (b) the date on which all of the Holder’s Exchange Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or other restrictions (the “Termination Date”). 

5. Appointment of Representatives. 

5.1 The Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees to the appointment, as set forth in Section 12.13 of the Business Combination Agreement, of
CSC Shareholder Services LLC as “Seller Representative” to represent each of the direct and indirect beneficial owners of the Company, including the Holder, following the Closing for all purposes of the Business Combination Agreement,
other than with respect to the Contingent Purchase Price for which Tartan shall act as representative, and that the Holder shall be a Represented Party for all purposes of the Business Combination Agreement. The Holder further acknowledges and
agrees that the Seller Representative, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and this Agreement, has the full and exclusive authority to act on the Holder’s behalf in connection with the Business Combination Agreement and the documents
related thereto including, without limitation: (a) to interpret the terms and provisions of the Business Combination Agreement and the documents to be executed and delivered in connection therewith, (b) to execute and deliver and receive
deliveries of all agreements, certificates, statements, notices, approvals, extensions, waivers, undertakings, amendments and other documents required or permitted to be given in

Combination Agreement, (d) to agree to negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, assume the defense of claims, demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims and to take all
actions necessary or appropriate in the sole judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, (e) to give and receive notices and communications, (f) to authorize delivery to PAHL of funds from the Escrow
Account or any portion, (g) to receive and distribute the consideration payable hereunder or under the Business Combination Agreement, including payments from the Escrow Account and any earnings and proceeds thereon, and holdback therefrom any
amounts necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Representative, and (h) to make, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such other agreements, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, instructions,
certificates, unit powers, letters and other writings, and, in general, to take all actions (or refrain from taking actions) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Representative as agent for and on behalf of the Represented Parties
in connection with the Business Combination Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Holder acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, following the occurrence of the Contingent
Litigation Proceeds Payment Event, if any, PAHL will pay the Contingent Litigation Proceeds to the Seller Representative for distribution to each Contingent Litigation Proceeds Recipient, including the Holder. 

5.2 The Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees to the appointment, as set forth in Section 12.14 of the Business Combination Agreement, of
Tartan as “Retaining Holder Representative” to represent each of the Retaining Holders, including the Holder, following the Closing for all purposes in connection with the Contingent Purchase Price. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Holder acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, PAHL will pay the Contingent Purchase Price, if any, to the Retaining Holders Representative for distribution to each Retaining Holder,
including the Holder. 
 6. Certain Covenants. For the period commencing on the Closing Date and continuing until the earlier of the
seventh anniversary of the Closing Date and such date on which all of Platform Holdco’s outstanding shares of common stock are owned (directly or indirectly) by PAHL, (a) Platform Holdco covenants and agrees that it will not
(i) engage in any business activity other than to hold the interest in MD Holdings or (ii) issue additional securities (or instruments convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for securities) without the prior written consent of
shareholders representing a majority of the shares of Platform Holdco common stock not held by Platform, and (b) PAHL will not effect a merger, reorganization or consolidation of Platform Holdco without the prior consent of Platform Holdco
shareholders representing a majority of the shares of outstanding common stock of Platform Holdco not held by PAHL, unless PAHL delivers to the shareholders of Platform Holdco other than PAHL an opinion of counsel, reasonably acceptable to the
holders of a majority of such shares, to the effect that such merger, reorganization or consolidation will be done in a manner that is tax-free to the holders of Platform Holdco common stock. 

  
 - 7 -

effect, and Holder shall have no rights hereunder or under the Business Combination Agreement.

Delaware applicable to a contract entered into and fully performed solely within the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. 

8.7 Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations shall be assigned by any of

(i) the defense of sovereign immunity, (ii) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the 

  
 - 9 - 

 
failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 8.8, (iii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced
in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by Law that (A) the suit, action or
proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. 

8.9 The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would
occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Business
Combination Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to
prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties

PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED

party’s obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition shall not be construed as a waiver of
any 

  
 - 10 - 

 
subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of any party hereto to assert any of its rights
hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

	 	(ii)	advisory services with respect to mergers and acquisitions; 

  

	 	(iii)	investor relations services; 

  

	 	(iv)	strategic planning advisory services; 

  

	 	(v)	capital expenditure allocation advisory services; 

  

	 	(vi)	strategic treasury advisory services (including without limitation advice regarding financings, equity offerings, global cash planning and other related services); and 

 

	 	(vii)	such other services relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as may from time to time be mutually agreed to among the parties. 

(b) It is expressly understood and agreed that Advisor shall devote only so much time, and shall consult with and advise the officers and
directors of the Company only to such extent and, at such times and places, as may be mutually convenient to the Company and Advisor. Advisor shall be free to provide similar services to such other business enterprises or activities as Advisor may
deem fit without any limitation or restriction whatsoever. 
 (c) The initial term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date
and shall terminate on the first anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”). The Initial Term shall be automatically renewed for successive one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party
notifies the other party in writing of its intention not to renew the Agreement no later than 90 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, as 

 
the case may be. This Agreement may only be terminated by the Company upon a vote of a majority of the Company’s directors. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company, the
effective date of the termination shall be six months following the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, as the case may be. 

2. Compensation and Expenses. 

(a) For the Services to be rendered by Advisor hereunder, Advisor shall receive an annual fee (the “Management Fee”) equal to
$2,000,000. The Company shall pay the Management Fee in quarterly installments, in advance, equal to $500,000. Within ten (10) days of the date hereof, the Company shall pay Advisor an amount representing the pro rata portion of the Management
Fee for the quarter ending December 31, 2013. 
 (b) The Company shall reimburse Advisor for the cost of all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Advisor and its affiliates in the performance of the Services hereunder and all matters related thereto. The aforementioned
expenses will be payable by the Company to Advisor or its designee promptly following presentation by Advisor of invoices for such expenses. 

3. Relationship of the Parties. Advisor is providing the Services hereunder as an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be deemed to constitute the parties hereto as joint venturers, alter egos, partners or participants in an unincorporated business or other separate entity, nor in any manner create any employer-employee
or principal-agent relationship between the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries on the one hand, and Advisor or any of Advisor’s members, Advisors, officers or employees on the other hand (notwithstanding the fact that the Company and
Advisor may have in common any officers, directors, stockholders, members, managers, employees, or other personnel). 
 4. Directors and
Officers. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the directors or officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries from the performance of their respective duties or limit the exercise of their powers in accordance with the
Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ charter, bylaws, operating agreement, other constituent documents, applicable law, or otherwise. The activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall at all times be subject to the control and direction
of their respective directors and officers. The Company and its Subsidiaries reserve the right to make all decisions with regard to any matter upon which Advisor has rendered its advice and consultation. The Company, its Subsidiaries and Advisor
expressly acknowledge and agree that Advisor is being engaged by the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide the Services to the Company and its Subsidiaries, for which Advisor will be compensated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Advisor
shall not, and shall have no authority to, control the Company or its Subsidiaries or the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ day-to-day operations, whether through the performance of Advisor’s duties hereunder or otherwise. Moreover,
although the Company and/or its Subsidiaries may grant to Advisor authority to sign, review or approve the Company’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ checks, payments, expenditures, transfers and/or conveyances, any such grant of authority shall
be made by the Company or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and accepted by Advisor with the express understanding and 

  
 2 

 
limitation that Advisor shall possess and exercise such authority solely in its capacity as a provider of the Services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and in no other capacity, and that
no inference shall be drawn therefrom as to any ability of Advisor to control the Company or its Subsidiaries or the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ day-to-day operations or any liability or responsibility therefor. The Company’s and
its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers and employees shall retain all responsibility for the Company, its Subsidiaries and their operations as and to the extent required by the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ charter, bylaws, operating
agreement, other constituent documents, and applicable law. 
 5. Limitation of Liability. Neither Advisor nor any of its affiliates,
nor any of their respective members, managers, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and/or controlling persons, nor any successor by operation of law (including by merger) of any such person, nor any entity that acquires all or
substantially all of the assets of any such person in a single transaction or series of related transactions (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Advisor Indemnitees”) shall be liable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or affiliates or any of the security holders or creditors of the Company or any of its affiliates for (i) any damage, loss, liability, deficiency, diminution in value, action, suit, claim, proceeding, investigation, audit, demand, assessment,
fine, judgment, cost or other expense (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) (collectively “Liabilities”) directly or indirectly (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) arising out of,
related to, caused by, based upon or in connection with the performance of the Services contemplated by this Agreement unless such Liability shall be proven to result directly and primarily from the willful misconduct of such person or (ii) any
Outside Activities (as defined below). Advisor makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, in respect of the Services provided by any Advisor Indemnitee. In no event will any Advisor Indemnitee be liable to the Company (x) for
any special, indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits or savings or lost business, whether or not such damages are foreseeable or such Advisor Indemnitee has been advised of the
possibility of such damages or (y) in respect of any Liabilities relating to any third party claims (whether based in contract, tort or otherwise), except as set forth in Section 6 below. Under no circumstances will the aggregate of any
and all Liabilities of Advisor Indemnitees exceed, in the aggregate, the fees actually paid to Advisor hereunder. 
 6.
Indemnification. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall jointly and severally reimburse, defend, indemnify and hold Advisor Indemnitees, and each of them, harmless from and against any Liabilities arising out of, related to, caused by, based
upon or in connection with (a) any act or omission of, or on behalf of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, Advisor or any of Advisor Indemnitees, except to the extent proven to result directly and primarily from the willful misconduct of the
person seeking indemnification, or (b) any act or omission made at the direction of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Claims”). The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates shall jointly and severally
defend at their own cost and expense any and all suits or actions (just or unjust) which may be brought against the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, or any Advisor Indemnitee or in which any Advisor Indemnitee may be impleaded
with others upon any Claims, or upon any matter, directly or indirectly arising out of, related to, caused by, based upon or in connection with this Agreement or the performance (or failure of performance) hereof by any Advisor Indemnitee.

 9. Amendments. No amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall

10. Applicable Law; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws
of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law or choice of law that would compel the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED
BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION IN ANY COURT WITH RESPECT TO, IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE VALIDITY, PROTECTION, INTERPRETATION, COLLECTION OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. 

11. Section Headings. The headings of each section are contained herein for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any
way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the
parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all prior agreements, understandings and representations, oral or written, with regard to such matters. 

13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or application thereof under any circumstances is adjudicated to be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or application of this Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid or unenforceable provision or application and shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision or application in any other jurisdiction. If any provision is held void, invalid or unenforceable with respect to particular circumstances, it shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect in
all other circumstances. 
 14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and
both of which together shall constitute one and the same document. Any counterpart may be executed by PDF or facsimile signature and such PDF or facsimile signature shall be deemed an original.

 16. Attorneys’ Fees. If any action at law or in equity is necessary or desirable to
enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, to protect the rights obtained hereunder, or where any provision hereof is validly asserted as a defense, then Advisor shall be entitled to recover from the Company its reasonable attorneys’
fees incurred in connection therewith, including attorneys’ fees on appeal, and all costs and disbursements, in addition to any other available relief or remedy to which it may be entitled. 

17. Outside Activities. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that one or more of Advisor Indemnitees have had, and from time to
time may have, outside activities or interests that conflict or may conflict with the best interests of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates (collectively, “Outside Activities”), including (without limitation)
investment opportunities or investments in, ownership of, or participation in entities that are or could be complementary to, or competitive with, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates. The Company hereby consents to all such
Outside Activities, and no Advisor Indemnitee shall be liable to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates for breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise), including without limitation any fiduciary duties, by reason of any such
activities or of such person’s participation therein. In the event that any Advisor Indemnitee acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for both the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their
affiliates, on the one hand, and any Advisor Indemnitee, on the other hand, or any other person, no Advisor Indemnitee shall have any duty (contractual or otherwise), including without limitation any fiduciary duties, to communicate, present or
offer such corporate opportunity to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates and, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shall not be liable to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates for
breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise), including without limitation any fiduciary duties, by reason of the fact that any Advisor Indemnitee directly or indirectly pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to
another person, or does not present or communicate such opportunity to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, even though such corporate opportunity may be of a character that, if presented to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any
of their affiliates, could be taken by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, as applicable. The Company hereby renounces any interest, right, or expectancy in any such opportunity not offered to it by Advisor Indemnitees to the
fullest extent permitted by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 17 shall not limit in any respect the provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement. 

18. Construction. The construction of this Agreement shall not take into consideration the party who drafted or whose representative
drafted any portion of this Agreement, and no canon of construction shall be applied that resolves ambiguities against the drafter of a document.
