(iii) or (iv) or subsection 3.3C, or (y) acceleration of the Notes pursuant to Section 10 an amount, determined in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) below, which shall become immediately
due and payable in addition to all principal and accrued but unpaid interest (including amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) then due on the Notes. 

(a) The Yield Maintenance Amount in connection with a prepayment or acceleration shall be equal to the excess, if any, of: 

 

	 	(i)	the then present value of the remaining scheduled principal (including amounts paid, or projected to be paid, in kind and added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) and interest payments on the Notes
avoided by such prepayment or acceleration (from and after the Commercial Operation Date, excluding accrued and unpaid interest due on the date of prepayment (other than any interest paid in kind and added to the principal of the Notes)), based on
the Deemed Cash Interest Payments, discounted to the date of prepayment or acceleration on a quarterly basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at a rate that is 0.50% greater than the yield to maturity of those actively
traded United States Treasury securities having a maturity closest to the remaining term of the Notes, in each case, such yields to maturity to be determined by interpolating linearly from the yield to maturity of the relevant securities (as such
yields to maturity are displayed by Bloomberg L.P. (or such other source as may be mutually acceptable to Issuer and Agent) at 12:00 p.m. (noon) (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the date of such prepayment or acceleration),
or, if such yields are not reported as of such time or if the yields as of such time are not ascertainable, (including by interpolation, the Treasury constant maturity series yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so
reported as of the third Business Day preceding the date of such prepayment or acceleration in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury Securities having a constant maturity equal to the
remaining term of the Notes, all as reasonably determined by Agent after consultation with Issuer; over 

  

	 	(ii)	the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (including amounts paid in kind through the date of prepayment and added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) being prepaid pursuant to any applicable clause
of subsection 3.3B or subsection 3.3C or due as a result of an acceleration under Section 10, plus, any accrued but unpaid interest thereon due on the date of prepayment. 

  
 53 

 (b) For purposes of the calculation of the Yield Maintenance Amount, interest
shall be calculated at the Base Interest rate. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Yield Maintenance Amount be less than zero.

(i) Base Interest. Subject to the provisions of subsection 3.2B(ii), the unpaid principal amount of the Initial Notes
(consisting, from time to time, of interest that is paid in kind as described in subsection 3.2B(iii)) shall bear interest at a base rate of eleven percent (11.0%) per annum, compounded quarterly payable in arrears on each Payment Date.
Subject to the provisions of subsection 3.2B(ii), the unpaid principal amount of any Additional Notes (which may consist in part, from time to time, of interest that is paid in kind as described in subsection 3.2B(iii)) shall bear
interest at a base rate of fifteen percent (15.0%) per annum, compounded quarterly payable in arrears on each Payment Date. The interest payable pursuant to this subsection 3.2B(i) is referred to herein as the “Base
Interest”. 
 (ii) Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder,
the unpaid principal amount of the Notes (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) and, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other Note
Obligations then due and payable (including any Yield Maintenance Amounts and, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, any accrued but unpaid interest thereon), shall bear interest at the Default Interest Rate and shall be payable
on demand. 
 (iii) Payment in Kind. 

(a) Prior to the Commercial Operation Date, the interest accrued pursuant to subsection 3.2B(i) shall be paid in kind
(in lieu of payment in cash) on the applicable Payment Date, and on the relevant Payment Date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be automatically increased by the amount of such interest so paid in kind, rounded down to
the nearest whole Dollar, and an adjustment shall be made on the Note Register to reflect such increase. 

  
 59 

 (b) From and after the Commercial Operation Date, if no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and solely to the extent that the sum of cash on hand at Issuer together with the Operating Cash Available for Interest for the most recently completed Fiscal Quarter (without duplication of amounts (i) distributed to
Issuer in any Fiscal Quarter and included in the calculation of Operating Cash Available for Interest with respect to such Fiscal Quarter or (ii) contributed to Issuer by Parent so that Issuer has sufficient cash to pay interest in an amount
that is not less than Operating Cash Available for Interest with respect to the most recently completed Fiscal Quarter) is not sufficient to enable Issuer to pay in cash all Base Interest accrued pursuant to subsection 3.2B(i), a portion of
such Base Interest in the amount of such insufficiency (rounded up to the nearest whole Dollar) may be paid in kind (in lieu of payment in cash) on the applicable Payment Date by written election of Issuer to Agent on or prior to such Payment Date
and in such case on the relevant Payment Date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes shall be automatically increased by the amount of such interest so paid in kind, rounded down to the nearest whole Dollar, and an adjustment shall
be made on Note Register to reflect such increase; provided that accrued interest in an amount no less than Operating Cash Available for Interest for the most recently completed Fiscal Quarter shall at all times following the Commercial
Operation Date be paid in cash and not in kind. 
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, the entire amount of Base Interest at an
aggregate base rate of eleven percent (11.0%) or fifteen percent (15.0%), as applicable, per annum shall be paid, either in cash or in kind, in accordance with this Agreement. 

(d) All amounts of Base Interest added to the principal of the Notes pursuant to this subsection 3.2B(iii) shall bear
interest as provided herein, be payable as provided in subsection 3.3 and be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Issuer’s determination of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding at any time shall be conclusive and binding,
absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Maximum Amount of Interest. Anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Document
notwithstanding, interest payable hereunder and under the Notes shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted under the laws of the State of New York. To the maximum extent it may lawfully do so, Issuer hereby irrevocably waives any defense or
objection to the payment of any Note Obligation on the basis that the payment of such Note Obligation is limited by the Requirements of Law of any jurisdiction, including but not limited to any usury law or other Requirement of Law intended to limit
the amount of money which may be charged for the extension of credit. 
 C. Computation of Interest. 

Interest on the Notes accrued pursuant to subsections 3.2B(i) and 3.2B(ii) shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of
three hundred and sixty (360) days (comprised of twelve 30-day months) and actual number of days elapsed in the case of partial months.

with its obligations under this Agreement and the Notes by virtue of such compliance. 
 (d) The Issuer will not be required

 Any amount prepaid on
the Notes may not be reborrowed. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this subsection 3.3B to the contrary, no prepayment in an amount less than $1,000,000 shall be required at any time, including, for the avoidance of doubt, if an Offer to

prepayment may be revoked on or before the date specified in such notice of prepayment by notice to Agent stating that such refinancing will not occur on such specified date). Any amount prepaid on the Notes may not be reborrowed. 

D. Inclusion of Interest and Yield Maintenance Amount with Prepayments. 

(i) Any prepayment of principal of the Notes, including any prepayment of principal of the Notes required by Section 10 in
connection with an acceleration of the Notes, shall be made together with (a) all accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to, but excluding, the date of repayment, plus (b) except with respect to
prepayments pursuant to subsection 3.3B(ii), repurchases of Repurchased Non-Converted Notes pursuant to subsection 9.4 or prepayments made after the ninth anniversary of the Closing Date, the Yield Maintenance Amount. 

  
 63 

 (ii) Issuer acknowledges, understands and agrees that (a) Issuer’s request for the
Note Holders to purchase the Notes, and the Note Holders’ agreement to purchase the Notes pursuant to the terms of the Note Documents, will result in the inability of the Note Holders to deploy such funds for profit in respect of other economic
opportunities, and will result in the Note Holders ceasing to seek out such other economic opportunities in light of the funds committed hereunder; (b) the Note Holders have expended substantial time and expense, and have abstained from other
business opportunities, to research, diligence, negotiate and undertake the transactions contemplated by the Note Documents, and the Note Holders have done so in the reasonable expectation of receiving in full all sums they will receive if the Notes
are repaid in accordance with the terms hereof; and (c) in light of the matters described in the preceding sub-clauses (a) and (b), and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties to the Note Documents have agreed
upon the Yield Maintenance Amounts which may otherwise become due and payable under this Agreement as an express inducement to the Note Holders to purchase the Notes and to undertake the transactions contemplated by the Note Documents. In
consideration (and not in limitation) of the forgoing, the Note Holders and Issuer agree that any Yield Maintenance Amount payable pursuant to this Agreement is a reasonable estimate of Note Holders’ actual losses, and losses of opportunity, in
connection with the applicable prepayment, which shall be treated as additional proceeds on the Notes and which are not intended to, nor do they, constitute a penalty or unpermitted premium. 

3.4 Application of Payments 

Any payments under the Note Documents shall be applied in the following order of priority: first, to pay in full any outstanding fee,
indemnity amount, expense recoupment charge, or any other Note Obligation which is due and payable and not otherwise addressed in the remainder of this subsection 3.4; second, to pay in full any Yield Maintenance Amount required
pursuant to subsection 3.3 or subsection 10.2; third, to pay any outstanding interest then due and payable pursuant to the Notes to the full extent thereof; and fourth, to pay any principal (including all amounts added to
principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) outstanding under the Notes to the full extent thereof. 
 3.5 Taxes 

A. Any and all payments on account of any Note Obligation (including any interest or Yield Maintenance Amount) shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as otherwise required by applicable Requirements of Law. If a withholding agent is required by Requirements of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any sum paid or payable under
any of the Note Documents, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by Issuer shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to
additional sums payable under this subsection 3.5), the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made and (ii) such withholding agent shall make such
deductions or withholdings and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in 

  
 64 

 
accordance with the applicable Requirements of Law. The parties intend that any additional funds payable pursuant to the previous sentence will be treated as additional interest for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. 
 B. Issuer shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable
Requirements of Law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 C. Issuer shall indemnify
each recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any Obligation under any Note Document, without duplication of subsection 3.5A or subsection 3.5B, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes paid or payable by such recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any Note Obligation (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on
or attributable to amounts payable under this subsection 3.5) and any reasonable expenses arising in connection with such payment, deduction or withholding, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Issuer by such recipient (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Note Holder, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 
 D. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by Issuer to a Governmental Authority, Issuer
shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent. 

E. In the event a recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any Obligation under any Note Document determines in its sole
discretion that it has received a Tax refund in respect of Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Issuer or with respect to which Issuer has paid additional amounts pursuant to subsection 3.5A or subsection 3.5C, such recipient
shall refund such amounts to Issuer (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under subsection 3.5A or subsection 3.5C with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes)
of such recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Issuer, upon the request of such recipient agrees to repay the amount paid over to Issuer
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by a Governmental Authority) to such recipient in the event such recipient is required to repay such refund to a Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
clause E, in no event will a recipient be required to pay any amount to Issuer pursuant to this clause E, the payment of which would place such recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such recipient would
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. Nothing in this
clause E shall require a recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential in its sole discretion) to Issuer or any other Person. 

  
 65 

 F. Any Note Holder that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax
with respect to payments made under any Note Document shall deliver to Issuer and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Issuer or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Issuer or Agent as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Note Holder, if reasonably requested by Issuer or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by Issuer or Agent as will enable Issuer or Agent to determine whether or not such Note Holder is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences,
the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than the Prescribed Forms) shall not be required if in the Note Holder’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Note Holder to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Note Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Note Purchaser shall deliver to Agent and Issuer on the Closing Date and
on the date a Note Holder acquires its interest in the Notes two executed copies of the applicable Prescribed Form it is legally entitled to provide that will permit such payments to be made without withholding (or backup withholding) or at a
reduced rate of withholding. Each Note Holder agrees that from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Agent and Issuer and if any Prescribed Form it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it
shall update such Prescribed Form or promptly notify Agent and Issuer of its legal inability to do so. 
 G. If a payment made to a
Note Holder under any Note Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Note Holder were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b)
or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Note Holder shall deliver to Issuer and Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Issuer or Agent such documentation prescribed by
applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Issuer or Agent as may be necessary for Issuer and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and
to determine that such Note Holder has complied with such Note Holder’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause G, FATCA shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. 
 H. Each party hereto agrees (i) to treat the Notes as debt for U.S. federal
tax purposes, and (ii) the Notes are not “contingent payment debt instruments” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4 unless otherwise required pursuant to a final “determination” within the meaning
of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The parties shall treat for all income Tax purposes any payments described under subsection 3.3B and subsection 3.3C as a pro rata prepayment of such Notes pursuant to Treasury Regulations
Section 1.1275-2(f) and, solely for income Tax purposes, the Notes shall be deemed retired and reissued under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-2(h)(6)(ii) or Treasury Regulations Section 1.1272-1(c)(6), as applicable, after such
prepayment. 
 I. EIG MC shall deliver a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 to
Issuer on or prior to the date it becomes Agent hereunder. 

  
 66 

 J. Each party’s obligations under this subsection 3.5 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by a Note Holder and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Note Document. 

3.6 General Provisions Regarding Payment 

A. If more than one Note is outstanding, except with respect to repurchases of Repurchased Non-Converted Notes, payments pursuant to
subsection 9.9E or as set forth in subsection 3.3B(vi)(b), all payments on the Notes shall be applied to the Notes pro rata based on the principal amounts outstanding. 

B. All payments of principal and interest and other amounts due hereunder and under the Notes and the other Note Documents shall be in
same day funds and delivered to Note Holders not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) (New York City time) on the date due (without setoff or counterclaim) in Dollars in immediately available funds through wire transfer to Agent (or an account
designated by Agent) for the account of the applicable Note Holder as set forth on Schedule 3.6B opposite the name of such Note Holder or at such other place in the United States as shall be designated in writing by such Note Holder to
Issuer. All payments of amounts due to Agent hereunder shall be in same day funds and shall be delivered to Agent (or an account designated by Agent) not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) (New York City time) on the due date (without setoff or
counterclaim) in Dollars in immediately available funds through wire transfer to the applicable account of Agent as set forth on Schedule 3.6B opposite the name of Agent or in such other place in the United States as shall be designated in
writing by Agent to Issuer. At the time of payment, written confirmation of such payment shall be sent to Agent on behalf of the applicable Note Holder or Agent, as applicable, by facsimile or electronic mail at the number or address, respectively,
set forth in Schedule 3.6B indicating the principal and interest paid and a wire transfer identification number. Funds received by Note Holders or Agent, as applicable, after that time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding
Business Day and shall accrue interest accordingly. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without
adjustment in the computation of the payment of interest and fees (if applicable) hereunder or under the Notes. 
 3.7 Increased
Costs 
 If any Change in Law shall subject any Note Holder to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes covered in
subsection 3.5, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its notes, principal, or other obligations, and the result of any of
the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Note Holder of making, holding or maintaining any Note, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Note Holder hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount)
then, upon request of such Note Holder, Issuer will pay to such Note Holder, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Note Holder, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. A
certificate as to such amounts submitted to Issuer and Agent by such Note Holder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. 

  
 67 

 3.8 Minimizing Additional Costs 

Each Note Holder shall use good faith efforts to avoid or minimize any additional costs, Taxes, expenses or other Obligations which might
otherwise be imposed on Issuer pursuant to either of subsection 3.5 or subsection 3.7 hereof; provided that such efforts shall not (i) cause the imposition on any such Note Holder of any material unreimbursed additional
costs or legal or regulatory burdens, (ii) violate the terms of any agreement between a Note Holder or its Affiliate, on one hand, and any investor in such Note Holder or Affiliate, on the other hand, or (iii) otherwise be materially
disadvantageous to such Note Holder. Issuer hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Note Holder in connection with any such efforts. 

3.9 Cancellation of Notes 

Issuer will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such
Notes.

including, the VWAP Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice is delivered to Issuer and Parent (any such 90 consecutive VWAP Trading Day period described in clauses (i) and
(ii) immediately above, the “Averaging Period” and any such price calculated in clauses (i) and (ii) immediately above, the “Conversion Price”); provided, however,
that the Issuer shall adjust the Conversion Rate in a commercially reasonable manner and in accordance with the advice and calculations of an Independent Financial Expert retained by Issuer for such purpose if (i) the ex-dividend date or record
date, as applicable, for any regularly scheduled quarterly or other periodic dividend or distribution occurs during the period starting on the date immediately succeeding the last day of the Averaging Period and ending on the day immediately
preceding the date on which Parent Common Stock is delivered to the converting Note Holder in accordance with subsection 9.9D or (ii) the ex-dividend date or record date, as applicable, for any regularly scheduled quarterly or other
periodic dividend or distribution that is in an amount that differs materially from the amount of the most recent regularly scheduled or other periodic dividend of the Parent occurs during the period starting on the first day of the Averaging Period
and ending on the last day of the Averaging Period. 
 B. If the ex-dividend date, record date, effective date or expiration
date, as applicable, for any of the following events occurs, the Averaging Period for the purpose of determining any Conversion Price may not commence until 90 VWAP Trading Days following such an event (for the avoidance of doubt, a conversion
of Notes may not occur during a 90 VWAP Trading Day period following such an event) unless the Note Holders who have delivered the Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice with respect to any Notes elect for the Averaging Period for such
converted Notes to include one or more of such events, in which case the conversion of such Notes shall occur in accordance with such Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice Conversion Notice and the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted by the Issuer
in a commercially reasonable manner and in accordance with the advice and calculations of the Independent Financial Expert retained by the Issuer for that purpose: 

(i) Parent issues shares of Parent Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all of the shares of the Parent Common
Stock, or Parent effects a share split or share combination applicable to all or substantially all shares of the Parent Common Stock; 

  
 105

 (iii)
Parent declares a distribution of shares of its capital stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of Parent or rights, options or warrants to acquire Issuer’s capital stock or other securities (the “Distributed
Property”), to all or substantially all holders of shares of Parent Common Stock, excluding:

(b) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which adjustment, if any, will be made under subsection
9.8B(v); and 
 (c) dividends or distributions as to which an adjustment was made under subsection 9.8B(iv); 

(iv) Parent declares a distribution to all or substantially all holders of shares of Parent Common Stock of shares of capital stock of any
class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary, or other business unit or Affiliate, of Parent, where such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon consummation of
the Spin-Off) on a major U.S. or non-U.S. securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”); 
 (v) any cash dividend or distribution is
declared to be paid or made to all or substantially all holders of shares of Parent Common Stock, other than any regularly scheduled quarterly or other periodic dividend or distribution, subject to adjustment pursuant to the proviso set forth in
subsection 9.8A; or 
 (vi) Parent, Issuer or any of their Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange
offer for shares of Parent Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Parent Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Parent Common Stock on the Trading Day
next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer. 
 C. Within
three Business Days following any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to the proviso in subsection 9.8A, Issuer shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the
date on which each adjustment became effective and shall mail by overnight mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Note Holder in accordance with subsection 12.4. In addition, following any adjustment to the
Conversion Rate pursuant to the proviso in subsection 9.8A, Issuer will, upon request by a Note Holder, promptly following (and, in any event, within three Business Days of) such request, provide to such Note Holder a report (in a commonly
used file format for the storage and manipulation of financial data) displaying in reasonable detail the basis for such adjustment. 

  
 106 

 D. During the period starting on the day immediately succeeding the last day of the
Averaging Period and ending on the day immediately preceding the date on which Parent Common Stock is delivered to the converting Note Holder in accordance with subsection 9.9D, no ex-dividend date, record date, effective date or expiration
date, as applicable, for any of the events described in subsection 9.8B that are not permitted to occur during the Averaging Period for the purpose of determining any Conversion Price shall occur. 

9.9 Settlement upon Conversion 

A. Provisions of this Agreement that apply to conversion of all of a Note also apply to conversion of a portion of a Note. 

B. Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Notes (or portion thereof) on the date on which the
requirements set forth above in subsection 9.3 or 9.7, as applicable, have been satisfied as to such Notes (or portion thereof). 

C. Upon the surrender of a Note that is converted in part (except to the extent such Note is repurchased as a Repurchased Non-Converted
Note) or only part of which consists of Repurchased Non-Converted Notes within three Business Days after the date of such surrender, Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion or
portion not subject to repurchase of the Note surrendered. 
 D. With respect to any conversion of Notes, if any, Issuer shall,
subject to the provisions of this Section 9, no later than 5:00 p.m. (Houston time) on the fifth Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date of delivery of the relevant Issuer Initiated Conversion Notice or Note Holder
Initiated Conversion Notice, as applicable, cause Parent to issue and Issuer shall deliver (or shall cause Parent, as agent for Issuer, to deliver) to the converting Note Holder the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to, in respect of
each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted (or, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes subject to conversion is not an integral of $1,000, such other amount), the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate,
rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Common Stock; provided, that in the event of a Note Holder Initiated Conversion, Issuer’s requirement to deliver shares in accordance with this subsection 9.9D shall be deferred to
the extent Parent’s obligations under section 4(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement are deferred in accordance with the terms thereof until the date on which such obligations are satisfied or the applicable Note Holder elects to revoke its
Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms of such section. 
 E. Upon conversion, Note Holders shall
receive a separate cash payment for (i) any partial shares that are not delivered to such Note Holder pursuant to subsection 9.9D, plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the date on which such converting Note
Holder receives shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to subsection 9.9D. 

  
 107 

 F. Issuer shall not issue fractional shares upon conversion of Notes. If multiple Notes
shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Note Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issuable upon conversion (and the number of fractional shares, if any, for which cash shall be delivered) shall be computed on the
basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. 

G. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no case shall Issuer deliver (or cause Parent to deliver) any shares
of Parent Common Stock to the extent delivery thereof would cause the aggregate number of all shares of Parent Common Stock delivered and deliverable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to all Note Holders to exceed the Aggregate Share Cap. 

H. With respect to each share of Parent Common Stock delivered pursuant to this subsection 9.9: (i) Issuer acknowledges to,
and agrees with, the Note Holder of the relevant converted Note that such share will be delivered free of restrictive legends; provided that any instruction to the transfer agent for the Parent Common Stock that such shares of Parent Common
Stock are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a) of the Securities Act shall not be deemed to breach this subsection 9.9H; provided that upon a sale pursuant to the registration statement, such shares
will be delivered free of any such legend, registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company’s nominee, maintained in the form of book entries on the books of The Depository Trust Company and allowed to be settled through The Depository
Trust Company’s regular book-entry settlement services and (ii) the Note Holder of the relevant converted Note acknowledges and agrees that such share may be a “restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144(a) of the
Securities Act and will not be sold except in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 

9.10 Piggyback Conversions 

A. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in subsection 9.2D(a)(iii) and subsection 9.6B(a)(iii), if any Issuer
Initiated Conversion Notice or any Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice has been delivered (either, the “First Notice”), then, by 5:00 p.m. (Houston time) on the Business Day immediately following the delivery of such First
Notice, the Note Holders (with respect to any First Notice that is an Issuer Initiated Conversion Notice) or the Issuer (with respect to any First Notice that is a Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice) shall have the right to deliver, as
applicable, a Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice or Issuer Initiated Conversion Notice (either, the “Piggyback Notice”), and such Piggyback Notice shall be deemed to have been delivered on the same date as the First Notice,
and, for the avoidance of doubt, the conversion with respect to each of the First Notice and the Piggyback Notice shall be consummated on the same date. Except as expressly set forth in this subsection 9.10, any conversion pursuant to a First

Issuer following a Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice, the Note Holders delivering the First Notice shall have the right to revoke the applicable Note Holder Initiated Conversion Notice that was delivered by such Note Holders on or before 5:00
p.m. (Houston time) on the Business Day immediately following the delivery of the Piggyback Notice and, in the event the Note Holders elect to revoke such First Notice, the Issuer shall have the right, to be exercised within one Business Day

following the revocation of the First Notice, to notify Agent and the Note Holders that Issuer elects to increase the aggregate amount of Notes to be converted pursuant to the Piggyback Notice
and such conversion will otherwise remain subject to the provisions of this Section 9, including, with respect to any conversion of Notes held by an EIG Note Holder, the provisions set forth in subsection 9.2A. 

B. Notwithstanding subsection 9.10A, if: 

(i) as a result of subsection 9.9G, less than all the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to the First Notice and the Piggyback
Notice may be delivered, Parent Common Stock shall be delivered, to the extent permitted by subsection 9.9G, first, pursuant to the First Notice and, second, pursuant to the Piggyback Notice; or 

(ii) with respect to the First Notice and Piggyback Notice, if any, in connection with the initial conversion pursuant to this
Section 9, the aggregate principal amount of Notes being converted pursuant to both the First Notice and the Piggyback Notice shall be less than or equal to 50.0% of the principal amount of all Notes outstanding as of the date the First
Notice is delivered, and, subject to such limitation, Parent Common Stock shall be delivered first, pursuant to the First Notice with respect to a principal amount of Notes equal to the lesser of (i) 50.0% of the principal amount of all
Notes outstanding as of the date the First Notice is delivered and (ii) the principal amount of Notes subject to the First Notice, and, second, pursuant to the Piggyback Notice with respect to a principal amount of Notes equal to the
lesser of (x) the excess, if any, of (A) 50.0% of the principal amount of all Notes outstanding as of the date the First Notice is delivered over (B) the principal amount of Notes subject to the First Notice and (y) the principal
amount of Notes subject to the Piggyback Notice. 
 9.11 Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale 

In the case of (i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Parent Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a
subdivision or combination, any stock dividends or any change in par value or to no par value or from no par value to a par value), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving Parent, (iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to
a third party of the consolidated assets of Parent substantially as an entirety, or (iv) any statutory share exchange, in each case, as a result of which Parent Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities,
other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at the effective time of the Merger Event, Issuer shall execute, and each Note Holder shall counter-sign, a supplemental
agreement providing for the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes by reference to the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one
share of Parent Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property”) upon such Merger Event; provided that, if the successor to Parent is not a U.S.
person (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) that is an entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes, Parent shall notify Agent no fewer than 15 Business Days prior to the effective time of such Merger Event;
provided, further, that unless upon the effective time of such Merger Event (i) the common equity (or receipts representing such equity) of the successor to Parent is listed on The New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ
Global Market or the  

  
 109 

 
NASDAQ Global Market Select, or any successor to the foregoing, and (ii) such successor to Parent becomes party to this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and assumes all of
Parent’s obligations thereunder, Section 9 of this Agreement shall cease to be effective and the Notes shall no longer be convertible. If such Merger Event causes Parent Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive more
than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration
received by the holders of shares of Parent Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election. If requested by the Required Note Holders (ignoring, for the purposes of determining Required Note Holders for purposes of this Section, any
conversions that have not been settled) any changes to this Agreement in connection with the Merger Event shall be made in accordance with the advice and calculations of an Independent Financial Expert retained by Issuer for such purpose. Issuer
shall notify the Note Holders of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. Issuer shall not, and shall cause Parent not to, enter into any such transaction unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing in
this subsection 9.11. 
 9.12 Taxes of Shares Issued 

Any issue of shares on conversions of Notes shall be made without charge to the converting Note Holder for any documentary, transfer, stamp or
any similar tax in respect of the issue thereof, and Issuer shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes or duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Parent Common Stock on conversion
of Notes pursuant hereto. Issuer shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares in any name other than that of Issuer of any Notes converted, and, in
addition to any other requirements or conditions set forth herein, Issuer shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares unless and until the Person or Persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to Issuer the amount of such tax
or shall have established to the satisfaction of Issuer that such tax has been paid. 
 9.13 Reservation of Shares 

Parent shall at all times provide, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, shares of Parent Common Stock in an
amount equal to the Aggregate Share Cap. 
 9.14 Shareholder Rights Plan 

Each share of Parent Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes pursuant to this Section 9 shall be entitled to receive the
appropriate number of rights, if any, as may be provided by the terms of any shareholder rights agreement adopted by Parent, as any such agreement may be amended from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to any conversion such
rights have separated from the Parent Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights agreement, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if Parent had distributed, to all holders of the
Parent Common Stock, Distributed Property as described in subsection 9.8B(iii) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 

  
 110 

 9.15 Limitations on Synthetic Sales 

No Note Holder shall, while it is the holder of Notes, enter into any hedging, derivative or other similar transaction relating to such Notes
with respect to any Issuer Party or any of their respective Equity Interests, other securities, debt instruments or credit ratings, the economic effect or intent of which transaction is to transfer gain or loss in respect of the value of, such Notes
(or the shares of Parent Common Stock into which such Notes are convertible) to another Person as a result of changes in the trading price of the securities of any Issuer Party or their respective Equity Interests, debt instruments or changes in the
credit ratings of any Issuer Party or any of their respective Equity Interests, other securities or debt instruments (or, more generally, changes in the perceived creditworthiness of any Issuer Party); provided that this limitation shall not
apply to any Notes in respect of which an Issuer Initiated Conversion Notice or notice of Note Holder Initiated Conversion has been provided pursuant to this Section 9. 

9.16 Director Rights 

From and after the date of any conversion pursuant to this Section 9 following which the EIG Note Holders collectively
“beneficially” own (within the meaning of Section 13 of the Exchange Act) shares of the Parent Common Stock acquired pursuant to one or more Issuer Initiated Conversions or Note Holder Initiated Conversions representing 10% or more of
the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock, and for so long as such shares continue to represent 5% or more of the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock, EIG MC, on behalf of the EIG Note Holders, shall be entitled to designate one voting
member for appointment to the board of directors of Parent; provided that such appointee shall be subject to the good faith completion of Parent’s customary due diligence process on director nominees. For the avoidance of doubt, EIG MC
shall not be entitled to appoint more than one director pursuant to this subsection 9.16 at any time. If EIG MC is entitled to designate a director pursuant to this subsection 9.16, Parent will immediately expand the board of directors
of Parent (if there are no existing vacancies) and include such EIG MC designee on the board of directors in such newly-created or vacant director’s seat. Thereafter, Parent shall nominate the person designated by EIG MC in accordance with this
subsection 9.16 for election as a director at the annual meeting immediately following the applicable Conversion Date and solicit proxies for such director in the same manner as it does for all the other members of Parent’s slate of
directors. In the event EIG MC’s designee is not elected as a director at such annual meeting, EIG MC shall have the right to appoint a replacement director (who, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be a different individual) in accordance with
this subsection 9.16. 
 9.17 Cooperation 

Until the date that is 90 days after the Closing Date, the Note Document Parties shall cooperate with the Agent and the Note Purchasers
and shall make their respective officers and other representatives available during reasonable business hours for meetings and customary due diligence calls in connection with the marketing of any transaction with respect to the Notes. 

  
 111 

 9.18 Tax Matters. 

A. Parent covenants and agrees, from the Closing Date and until the Discharge Date, unless waived in accordance with the terms hereof:

 (i) Parent shall promptly notify Agent if Parent determines that either Parent or Issuer is a USRPHC. 

(ii) Unless Parent has provided Agent with notice pursuant to subsection 9.18A(i) that Parent is a USRPHC, Parent shall perform a
quarterly analysis of its USRPHC status and provide (i) on a quarterly basis and, if requested by Agent, on any date of a disposition of a Note, the Note Holders with a duly signed certificate which certifies that Parent is not a USRPHC, and
therefore equity interests in Parent are not United States real property interests within the meaning of Section 897(c)(1) of the Code, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Agent, and (ii) EIG MC and any of its Affiliates with the
underlying analyses, valuations and work papers related to such determination. 
 (iii) Parent shall not take any action that causes Issuer
to be treated as other than an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes on or after the Closing Date. 
 B.
Parent covenants and agrees (i) to treat the Notes as debt for U.S. federal tax purposes and (ii) that the Notes are not “contingent payment debt instruments” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4 in
each case unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. 

9.19 Equity Contribution Agreement 

Parent covenants and agrees, from the Closing Date and until the Discharge Date, unless waived in accordance with the terms hereof: 

A. In the event all Senior Debt Obligations have been paid in full and all related Senior Debt Commitments, if applicable, have
terminated or expired or the financing for the Project contemplated by the CCH Senior Financing Documents has otherwise been terminated, in each case, prior to the payment of all Cash Equity Funding required to the paid under Sections 2 and 3 of the
Equity Contribution Agreement (without regard to the pro rata funding requirements of Sections 3(b) and 3(c) of the Equity Contribution Agreement), the Required Note Holders, shall have the right to require, by written notice to Parent from Agent,
Parent to pay all such remaining and unpaid Cash Equity Funding amounts to CCH by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by CCH or as otherwise directed by CCH. 

B. Parent shall not amend the Equity Contribution Agreement, other than amendments that could not reasonably be expected to adversely
impair the rights or remedies of the Note Holders or Agent with respect to the Equity Contribution Agreement pursuant to subsection 9.19A. 

  
 112

rendered against any Subject Company and either (a) enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or (b) there shall be any period of 60 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of
such judgment, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; provided, however, that any such judgment shall not give rise to an Event of Default under this subsection 10.1F(i) if and for so long as
(1) the amount of such judgment is covered by a valid and binding policy of insurance in favor of such Subject Company from an insurer that is rated at least “A” by A.M. Best Company, which policy covers full payment thereof

to the extent that (a) any such loss of the validity, perfection or priority results from the failure of the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Pledge
Agreement, or (b) such loss of validity, perfection or priority results from the failure of the Collateral Agent any Depositary Bank, Securities Intermediary or Agent to take any action required to be taken by it pursuant to the terms of the
Security Documents to maintain such validity, perfection or priority (unless such failure results from or is attributable to any failure of a Note Document Party to cooperate with such actions).

Interest Rate), the Yield Maintenance Amount and any and all accrued Fees and other Note Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by Issuer and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default (other than any Fundamental Event of Default, the remedies in respect of which are set forth in subsection 10.2C),
at the direction of the Required Note Holders Agent will, by written notice to Issuer, declare all or any portion of the amounts described in clause (i) above to be, and the same shall further become, immediately due and payable, without
presentment, further demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Issuer. 
 B.
Rescission. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (ii) of subsection 10.2A or subsection 10.2C, the Required Note Holders, by written notice to Agent and Issuer, may rescind and
annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuer has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and the Yield Maintenance Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason
of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Yield Maintenance Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the Default Interest Rate and any other Note
Obligations then due and payable, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to subsection 12.6, and

(a)(v) of the definition of “Fundamental Event of Default,” such later date on which such Fundamental Event of Default is deemed to occur hereunder (subject to the proviso of this sentence), at the direction of the Required Note
Holders Agent will, by written notice to Issuer, declare the unpaid principal amount of the Notes (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes (including all
interest thereon accrued at the Default Interest Rate), the Yield Maintenance Amount and any and all accrued Fees and other Note Obligations to be, and the same shall further become, immediately due and payable, without presentment, further demand,

hereby expressly waived by Issuer; provided that in the event of any Fundamental Event of Default arising under the provisions of the CCH Senior Financing Documents that correspond to
Section 15.1(l) of the Common Terms Agreement, or if the CCH Senior Financing has been repaid prior to the Discharge Date, the corresponding provision, if any, of the largest principal amount of then-outstanding Permitted Senior Debt of the

 10.3
Issuance of Additional Notes 
 If any Project Entity fails to meet any material financial obligation to the lenders under
the CCH Senior Financing or any other Permitted Senior Debt, or to any third party under any Material Project Agreement or otherwise in respect of the payment of Project Costs, Issuer shall give Agent prompt (and in any event, within one
(1) Business Day thereafter in the case of any failure to pay obligations thereunder or breach of any financial covenant contained therein, or (ii) three (3) Business Days thereafter in the case of any other breach or default
thereunder) written notice of such failure (including a description thereof, the amount of such defaulted financial obligations and the action or actions such Project Entity or any other Issuer Party plans to take with respect thereto) and following
expiration of any applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) Issuer shall give Agent prompt written notice that such failure has not been cured and the Note Holders shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to pay all (but not less
than all) of such defaulted amount, within 20 Business Days of the date of such second notice, directly to the lenders under the CCH Senior Financing or any other Permitted Senior Debt or to such third party, or to pay such amount to Issuer (in
which case Issuer shall contribute such amount to CCH Direct Parent, cause CCH Direct Parent to contribute such amount to CCH and cause CCH to use such amount for the payment of such defaulted amount) (any amount so paid by the Note Holders pursuant
to this subsection 10.3, the “Funded Amount”) and Issuer shall issue to the Note Holders electing to fund such Funded Amount, convertible promissory notes hereunder of a new tranche (“Additional Notes”)
having the identical provisions as the Initial Notes other than the (i) date of issuance and the initial Quarterly Payment Date, (ii) interest rate, which shall be as set forth in subsection 3.2B(i) and (iii) conversion rate,
which shall be as set forth in subsection 9.8. Following the expiration of any applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) and until the expiration of the 20 Business Day period following receipt of notice thereof, in each case,
referred to in the preceding sentence, Issuer shall (and shall cause each other Issuer Party to) use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate Agent’s or any Note Holder’s attempt to cure any such default or event of default, and
Issuer shall not (and shall cause each other Subject Company and Project Entity not to) object, interfere with or impede in any manner any such attempt. 

SECTION 11 TERMINATION 
 11.1
Right to Terminate 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated and
the transactions contemplated herein abandoned at any time prior to the Closing: 
 A. by mutual written consent of Issuer and the
Agent at any time prior to the issuance of the Initial Closing Date Notes; 

  
 119 

 B. by Agent upon the initial advance of funds under the CCH Senior Financing Documents
without the occurrence of the Closing hereunder; 
 C. by Issuer or Agent, if: 

(i) the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before June 30, 2015 (the “Outside Date”); provided,
however, that neither Issuer, on the one hand, nor Agent or the Note Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement under this subsection 11.1C(i) if such Person’s breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall have been the cause of, or otherwise resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Outside Date; or 

(ii) a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority shall have issued a final, non-appealable order, decree or ruling
permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transaction provided that the Person seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this subsection 11.1C(ii) shall have complied in all material respects with the
further assurances obligations described in subsection 6.7; or 
 D. by the Agent, if any Note Document Party shall have
materially breached any of its representations or warranties in any Note Document or materially failed to perform any of its covenants in the Note Documents such that the conditions set forth in subsection 4.1 are not capable of being
satisfied and such breach on or failure to perform shall not have been cured or waived prior to the earlier of (A) 30 days following notice of such breach or failure to the Note Holders and (B) the Outside Date; provided that
the Agent and the Note Purchasers shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this subsection 11.1D if the Note Purchasers are then in material breach of any of their representations or warranties in this Agreement or
have failed to perform in any material respect any of their covenants in this Agreement. 
 11.2 Effect of Termination 

In the event that the Closing Date does not occur as a result of any party hereto exercising its rights to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
this Section 11, then this Agreement shall be null and void and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Person shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement, except that nothing herein shall relieve any party
hereto from liability for any willful and intentional breach by such party of its representations, warranties, obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement. In the event the termination of this Agreement results from any willful
and intentional breach by a party of its representations, warranties, obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, then the other parties shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity and shall be entitled to
recover court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees in addition to any other relief to which such parties may be entitled. In the event that a party hereto willfully and intentionally breaches its representations, warranties, obligations,
covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the remedies available to the other parties in equity shall include specific performance (without the requirement of posting a bond or other security) and such other remedies as may be available
to the other parties at law. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement prior to the Closing, (i) the Fee Letter and section 13 of the Commitment Letter (and 

  
 120 

 
the other applicable provisions referenced in such section 13) shall remain in full force and effect except to the extent superseded by the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) Issuer
shall be responsible to reimburse the fees and expenses of Agent in accordance with subsection 12.2A. 
 SECTION 12 MISCELLANEOUS 

12.1 Registration and Transfer of the Notes 

A. Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent for Issuer, shall keep at its principal office a register (the “Note Register”)
for the registration and registration of transfers of the Notes. The name and address of each Note Holder, the principal amount of the Notes and stated interest owing to each Note Holder, each transfer of Notes and the name and address of each
Transferee of any holder’s interest in the Notes shall be contained in the Note Register. The entries in the Note Register shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error, and Issuer, Agent and the Note Holders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Note Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Note Holder hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and each other Note Document. Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent for Issuer, shall give to any holder of a Note
and Issuer promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. 

Note Holders may at any time sell, assign, transfer or grant participations in the Notes to any Person that is an “accredited
investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act by complying with the transfer procedures set forth in subsection 12.1B below (in the case of any sale, assignment or transfer); provided
that (i) the EIG Note Holders shall, at all times prior to the Commercial Operation Date, hold at least 66 2⁄3% of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Notes (provided that the granting of a participation shall not be deemed to the reduce the principal amount of Notes held by a Note Holder), (ii) no sale, assignment, transfer of or grant of a participation in the Notes shall
be permitted unless the transaction complies with applicable “blue sky” or state securities laws, (iii) any such Transferee, or purchaser, grantee or transferee of a participation, shall provide customary representations as to the
source of funds being used to purchase the Notes or participation being transferred to it, (iv) no Transferee or holder of a participation shall constitute a Disqualified Note Holder, (v) unless (x) a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or (y) such sale or assignment is to an existing Note Holder or to any fund, account or company managed by EIG MC or any of its controlled Affiliates (which, in either event, shall not require such consent), Issuer
shall have provided its prior written consent to such sale, assignment, transfer or participation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which shall be deemed given if Issuer has not responded within five
(5) Business Days of a request for such consent) and (vi) any Transferee or holder of a participation shall, as a condition to its acquiring any Note or a participation therein, acknowledge and agree to be bound by the terms of
subsection 12.22. Any sale, assignment, transfer of or grant of a participation in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void ab initio and shall not be recorded on the Note Register. Furthermore, the parties to each
assignment shall pay to Issuer a processing and recordation fee of $1,000 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of Issuer). Issuer hereby acknowledges and agrees that any sale, assignment or transfer of the Notes will give rise
to a direct obligation of Issuer to the Transferee. Any holder of a participation in the Notes shall have no right to consent or vote on any matters hereunder other than with respect to 

  
 121 

 
(i) the extension of any scheduled payment of principal (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) or interest in respect of the Notes, (ii) the
reduction of the amount of any scheduled payment of principal (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)), (iii) a decrease in the rate of interest on the Notes (as specified in the Notes), (iv) the
termination of any Note Document except in accordance with its terms or (v) the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Notes other than in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents; provided,
however, that the restrictions set forth in this sentence shall not apply in respect of such waiver or amendment required by any applicable Requirement of Law or request of any Governmental Authority (including in connection with any actual
or proposed reorganization, restructuring, bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar event affecting Issuer or any other party to any Security Document). Issuer agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 3.5,
subsection 3.7, and subsection 12.2 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under subsection 3.5F (it being understood that the documentation required under subsection 3.5F shall
be delivered to the participating Note Holder)) to the same extent as if it were a Note Holder and had acquired its interest on the Closing Date; provided, that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
subsection 3.5 with respect to Indemnified Taxes than the applicable Note Holder would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, except the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a Change in Law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Note Holder that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Issuer, maintain a register on which
it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Notes or other Obligations under the Note Documents (the “Participant Register”);
provided, that no Note Holder shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Notes or other
Obligations under any Note Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Note or other Obligation is in registered form under Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c). The entries in the
Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Note Holder shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any
notice to the contrary. 
 B. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal office of Issuer for registration of transfer or exchange
(and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the
address for notices and payment instructions of each Transferee of such Note or part thereof and a representation by each such Transferee that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee), within five Business Days thereafter Issuer shall execute and
deliver, at Issuer’s expense, one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection
3.2B(iii)) amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 or A-2, as applicable, and shall
be payable to such Person as such holder may request. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall
have been paid thereon. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than 

  
 122 

 
$1,000,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a Note Holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000.
Any Transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in subsection 12.10 and to have agreed to be bound by, and adhere to, the obligations
of the Note Holders hereunder, including those set forth in subsection 12.22. 
 C. Upon receipt by Issuer of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to Issuer of the ownership of and loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an unsecured agreement of indemnity from any Note Holder that is a
Qualified Institutional Buyer or, in the case of any other Note Holder, an indemnity bond, in each case in such reasonable amount as Issuer shall determine, or (ii) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, Issuer at
its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 
 12.2 Payment of Expenses and Indemnity 

A. Issuer shall, whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
costs and expenses of Agent, Collateral Agent and Note Holders in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Note Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and any due diligence
investigation performed by Agent (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel to Agent, including any local legal counsel as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the Transactions, and, in accordance with
subsection 12.2B, other advisors to Agent), that have been incurred and invoiced through January 16, 2015, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,500,000 (and any such costs and expenses not actually invoiced and provided to Issuer by
January 16, 2015 shall be disregarded), (ii) with respect to costs and expenses incurred and invoiced after January 16, 2015, Closing and activities in anticipation of or precedent to Closing (including the reasonable and documented
fees and expenses of counsel to Agent, including any local legal counsel as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the Transactions, and, in accordance with subsection 12.2B, other advisors to Agent; provided, however,
that any fees payable to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. in its role as advisor to EIG MC will be deemed to have been incurred and invoiced prior to January 16, 2015 without regard to when such costs are paid or payable), (iii) the
management and agenting of the Notes, (iv) the creation, perfection or protection of Collateral Agent’s Liens in the Collateral (including reasonable fees and expenses for title and lien searches and filing and recording fees),
(v) participation by employees, officers or other representatives of Agent or Note Holders on boards of directors of any Issuer Party (as directors, observers or otherwise), (vi) any amendment, waiver or consent relating to any Note
Document (including as to each of the foregoing, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to Agent or Collateral Agent, including any local legal counsel as shall be reasonably necessary, and any other attorneys retained by Agent or
Collateral Agent and reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel) and (vii) any amounts which Agent, Collateral Agent or Note Holders had paid relative to curing any Event of Default resulting from acts or omissions by any Note Document
Party under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Issuer shall also pay all reasonable and 

  
 123 

 
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent, Collateral Agent and each Note Holder in connection with the preservation of rights under, and enforcement or attempted enforcement of, the
Note Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein or in connection with any restructuring or rescheduling of the Note Obligations (including the fees and disbursements of counsel for Agent, Collateral Agent and Note Holders). 

B. Expense reimbursement under subsections 12.2A(i) and (ii) shall include all reasonable and documented fees and
expenses of engineers, environmental, fuel, insurance and other consultants and experts engaged by or for the benefit of Agent, Collateral Agent or Note Holders, including in connection with preparing any reports or any inspections. 

C. Issuer shall indemnify Agent, Collateral Agent and each Note Holder and their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors,
employees, partners, members, representatives and agents (each an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened,
whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) (collectively, “Subject Claims”) that may at any time (including at any time following the Discharge Date) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by any
Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, (i) any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the execution, delivery or performance of any Note Document or any other Transaction Document,
(ii) use of the proceeds of the Notes, (iii) any violation by any Issuer Party or any of its Affiliates of any applicable Environmental Law or Environmental Permit, (iv) any Environmental Claim arising out of the management, use,
control, ownership or operation of property or assets by any Issuer Party or any of its Affiliates, including all on-site and off-site activities involving Hazardous Materials, (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Issuer or any other Issuer Party or (vi) the grant to Agent and Secured Parties of any Lien in any property
or assets of any Note Document Party or any Equity Interest in any Subject Company or (vii) the exercise by Agent and Secured Parties of their rights and remedies (including foreclosure or otherwise realization of any or all of the Collateral)
under any agreements creating any such Lien; provided that Issuer shall not be liable to any Indemnitee under this subsection 12.2C to the extent any loss, liability, claim, damage, expense, obligation, penalty, action, judgment, suit,
cost or disbursement (x) results from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnitee (to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), or (y) arises from any
dispute solely among Indemnitees, except to the extent resulting or arising from any act or omission by any Issuer Party or any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the indemnification obligations of Issuer
in respect of any loss, liability, claim, damage, expense, obligation, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost or disbursement under this Agreement or any other Note Document shall not, under any circumstances, be construed to include any loss of
profits, diminution in value, loss of investment income, goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (except for any such special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages included in any third-party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification). 

  
 124 

 D. If any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under subsection 12.2C with
respect to any action or proceeding brought by a third party that is also brought against Issuer or any of its Affiliates, Issuer shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such action or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnitee. Upon assumption by Issuer of the defense of any such action or proceeding, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in such action or proceeding and to retain its own counsel but Issuer shall not be liable for any legal
expenses of other counsel subsequently incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) Issuer agrees to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) Issuer fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee
in a timely manner, or (iii) the Indemnitee is advised by counsel that there are actual or potential conflicting interests between Issuer and the Indemnitee, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the
Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to Issuer. Issuer shall not consent to the terms of any compromise or settlement of any action defended by Issuer in accordance with the foregoing without the prior consent of the
Indemnitee unless (a) such compromise or settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all liability and claims in respect of such third-party action and (y) does not include a statement as to any admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnitee and (b) all liabilities, reimbursement of expenses or other amounts owed to the Indemnitee under subsection 12.2C have been paid or reimbursed in full. 

E. Issuer’s obligations under this subsection 12.2 shall survive the Discharge Date and the termination of this Agreement.

 F. Any amounts payable by Issuer pursuant to this subsection 12.2 shall be regularly payable within ten (10) days of
the date Issuer receives an invoice for such amounts from any applicable Indemnitee. 
 G. To the extent that the undertaking to
indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this subsection 12.2 may be unenforceable because it violates any applicable Requirement of Law or public policy, Issuer shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and
satisfy under any applicable Requirement of Law or public policy to the payment and satisfaction of all Subject Claims incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. 

H. To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, Issuer shall not, and shall cause each other Issuer Party not to assert,
and Issuer hereby waives, and shall cause each other Issuer Party to waive, any claim against Agent, Collateral Agent and any Note Holder, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a
result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any other Note Document or Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby,
the use of the proceeds of the Notes or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Issuer hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known
or suspected to exist in its favor. 

  
 125 

 I. This subsection 12.2 shall not apply with respect to Indemnified Taxes addressed
in subsection 3.5 or payments contemplated under subsection 3.7 or with respect to Excluded Taxes. 
 J. The
indemnification provisions of this subsection 12.2 shall continue to apply in favor of any Indemnitee notwithstanding that such Person shall no longer be the Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Note Holder, or an officer, director, employee,
partner, member, representative or agent thereof. The indemnification provisions of this subsection 12.2 shall apply equally to any sub-agent or co-agent of Agent or Collateral Agent. 

12.3 Right of Setoff 

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable Requirements of Law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such
rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Note Holder is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to Issuer or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Note Holder
to or for the credit or the account of Issuer against and on account of the Note Obligations of Issuer to such Note Holder under this Agreement or under any other Note Document, including all interests in Note Obligations purchased by such Note
Holder pursuant to subsection 12.7, and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document, irrespective of whether or not such Note Holder shall have made any demand
hereunder and although said Note Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. 
 12.4
Notices 
 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including in subsection 8.7), all notices, requests and demands
to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by facsimile or electronic mail), and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered by hand, or upon actual receipt if deposited in the mail,
postage prepaid, or, in the case of notice by facsimile or electronic mail, when confirmation is received, or, in the case of a nationally recognized overnight courier service, one Business Day after delivery to such courier service, addressed, in
the case of each party hereto, at its address specified opposite its name on Schedule 12.4 or on the appropriate transfer instrument delivered to Issuer in connection with the assignment of any Note or portion thereof, or to such other
address as may be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto; provided that notices and communications to any party hereto or any other Secured Party shall not be effective until received by such party or other
Secured Party, as the case may be. With respect to any Person, if the address set forth opposite such Person’s name on Schedule 12.4 does not include an e-mail address, any notice contemplated or required hereunder may not be provided to
such Person by e-mail. 

  
 126 

 Unless Agent otherwise prescribes with respect to itself or the Note Holders, or the Parent and
Issuer otherwise prescribe with respect to themselves, notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended
recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent
during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. 

12.5 Successors and Assigns; Subsequent Holders of Notes 

This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and the successors and permitted assigns of Note Holders. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any Permitted Transferee of any Notes, and in the event of such transfer or assignment, the rights
and privileges herein conferred upon Note Holders shall, subject to recordation of such transfer or assignment in the Note Register, automatically extend to and be vested in such Permitted Transferee, all subject to the terms and conditions hereof.
Issuer’s rights and interests hereunder may not be assigned without the prior written consent of all Note Holders. 
 Any Person into
which Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially
all of the corporate trust business of Collateral Agent, shall be the successor Collateral Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the Secured Parties hereto and Parent and the Subject
Companies shall promptly execute and deliver any such papers, authorize filings or take such further actions as Agent or such successor Collateral Agent shall request in order to reflect the successor Collateral Agent hereunder. 

12.6 Amendments and Waivers 

None of this Agreement, any Note, any other Note Document or any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived
except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 12.6. Required Note Holders and the applicable Note Document Party may, from time to time, enter into written amendments or waivers of this Agreement, the Notes, or the other Note
Documents to which the Note Holders are parties, and, subject to the consent of the Required Note Holders, any Note Document to which the Note Holders are not parties may be amended or waived; provided that no such amendment or waiver shall
(i) extend either the Maturity Date or any scheduled payment of principal (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) or interest or decrease the rate of interest on the Notes (other than any imposition of
the Default Interest Rate), or reduce the principal (including all amounts added to principal pursuant to subsection 3.2B(iii)) amount of any Note Obligations or reduce any fee or Yield Maintenance Amount payable to Note Holders hereunder, or
release any material portion of the Collateral (except as expressly permitted by the Security Documents or this Agreement), or amend, modify or waive any provision of this subsection 12.6 or the definition of Required Note Holders, or consent
to or permit the assignment or transfer by any Note Document Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Note Document, change the currency of the Note Obligations, or permit the issuance of additional Notes other
than as contemplated by subsection 3.2B(iii) or 10.3, or change the number or 

  
 127 

 
percentage of Note Holders who must approve the satisfaction of any condition precedent, or modify subsection 2.4, 3.2B(iii), 9.8, 12.5 or 12.7, in each case
without the written consent of all Note Holders or (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of subsection 12.9 or any other provision of any Note Document if the effect thereof is to affect the rights or duties of Agent or Collateral
Agent without the written consent of the then Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. Any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver shall apply to each of the Note Holders equally and shall be binding upon each Note Document Party, Note
Holder, Agent, Collateral Agent and all future holders of the Notes. 
 12.7 Ratable Sharing 

Note Holders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security,
through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Note Documents or otherwise, or pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency law, receive payment or
reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to that Note Holder hereunder or under the other Note Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such
Note Holder) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Note Holder in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Note Holder, then Note Holder receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify each other
Note Holder of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its
portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Note Holders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Note Holders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if all
or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Note Holder is thereafter recovered from such Note Holder upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Issuer or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and
the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Note Holder ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. In no event shall this subsection 12.7 apply to, or require any ratable sharing in
respect of, shares or cash received in connection with a conversion pursuant to Section 9. Issuer expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights
of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Issuer to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder. 

12.8 Classification of Transaction 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Note Holders, by entering into this Agreement or by any action pursuant hereto, will
not be, and neither Issuer nor Note Holders intend any Note Holder to be, deemed a partner or joint venturer with Issuer. 

  
 128 

 12.9 Agent and Collateral Agent 

A. (i) EIG MC is hereby appointed by the Note Holders to act on behalf of all Note Holders as Agent under this Agreement and the other
Note Documents. The Bank of New York Mellon is hereby appointed by the Note Holders to act on behalf of all Note Holders as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents. The provisions of this subsection 12.9 are solely
for the benefit of Agent, Collateral Agent and Note Holders and no Note Document Party nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this subsection 12.9 (other than subsection
12.9E, subsection 12.9F and subsection 12.9G). In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Note Documents, Agent and Collateral Agent shall each act solely as an agent of Note Holders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Issuer Party or any other Person. 

(ii) Each Note Holder irrevocably authorizes Agent and Collateral Agent to take such action on such Note Holder’s behalf and to exercise
such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Note Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as
are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Note Documents. The duties of Agent and Collateral Agent shall be
mechanical and administrative in nature and neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other Note Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Note Holder. None of Agent,
Collateral Agent or any of their respective Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Note Holder for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any
other Note Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

(iii) Each Note Holder hereby further authorizes Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Note Holders to enter into each
Security Document as secured party and to be Collateral Agent for and representative of Note Holders under such Security Document, and each Note Holder agrees to be bound by the terms of each Security Document and each Note Document; provided
that neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall (a) enter into or consent to any material amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in any Security Document or other Note Document or (b) release any Security
Document (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Security Document), in each case without the prior consent of Required Note Holders (or, if required pursuant to subsection
12.6, all Note Holders); provided further, however, that, without further written consent or authorization from Note Holders, Agent or Collateral Agent may execute any documents or instruments necessary to release any Lien
encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement or to which Required Note Holders have otherwise consented. Anything contained in any Note Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, Issuer, Agent, Collateral Agent and each Note Holder hereby agree that (1) no Note Holder shall have any right individually to realize upon Collateral under any Security Document or to enforce any other Note Document, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents and the other Note Document may be exercised solely by Agent or Collateral Agent for the benefit of Note Holders in accordance with the terms thereof and
(2) in the event of a foreclosure by Agent or Collateral Agent on any Collateral pursuant to a public sale, Agent, Collateral Agent or any Note Holder may be the purchaser of any or all of such 

  
 129 

 
Collateral at any such sale and Agent or Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Note Holders (but not any Note Holder or Note Holders in its or their respective individual
capacities unless Required Note Holders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to
use and apply any of the Note Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Agent or Collateral Agent at such sale. 

(iv) If Agent or Collateral Agent shall request instructions from Required Note Holders or all affected Note Holders with respect to any act
or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document, then Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until in the case of Agent,
Agent shall have received written instructions from Required Note Holders or all affected Note Holders, as the case may be, and in the case of the Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent shall have received written instructions from Agent (acting at the
direction of the Required Note Holders or all affected Note Holders, as applicable) and Agent and Collateral Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent or Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or
refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Note Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, be contrary to any Requirement of Law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Note
Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, expose Agent to any Environmental Claim or liability or (c) if Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall not first be indemnified to its
satisfaction against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Note Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent or
Collateral agent as a result of Agent or Collateral Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Note Document in accordance with the instructions of Required Note Holders or all affected Note Holders, as applicable. 

B. Agent and Collateral Agent may perform any and all of their duties and exercise their respective rights and powers hereunder or
under any other Note Document by or through any one or more sub-agents or co-agents appointed by Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent or co-agent may perform any and all of their
respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this subsection 12.9 shall apply to any such sub-agent or co-agent and to the Affiliates of the Agent
and Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent or co-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as well as the activities of the Agent and Collateral Agent. Neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any sub-agent or co-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in
the selection of such sub-agent or co-agent. 
 C. None of Agent, Collateral Agent or any of their respective Affiliates nor any of
their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Note Documents, except for damages caused by its or their own
gross negligence or willful  

  
 130 

 
misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent and Collateral Agent: (i) may treat the payee of any Notes as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of
the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Note Holder and shall not be responsible to any Note Holder for any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Note Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement or the other Note Documents on the part of any Issuer Party or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Note Document Party; (v) shall not be responsible to any Note Holder for the due
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Note Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall be entitled to rely upon,
and shall incur no liability under or in respect of, this Agreement or the other Note Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) believed by it to be
genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. Each of Agent and Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any
liability for relying thereon. 
 D. Without prejudice to any existing agreement between Agent or Collateral Agent and any Note
Holder, each Note Holder acknowledges that: (i) it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Note Holder and based on the financial statements of the Subject Companies and the Project Entities and such
other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of the Issuer Parties and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Note Documents and (ii) it will, independently and
without reliance upon Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Note Holder and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
Agreement and the other Note Documents. 
 E. Note Holders agree to indemnify Agent and Collateral Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by Issuer or other Note Document Parties and without limiting the obligations of any Note Document Party under any Note Document), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Amounts Due, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent or Collateral Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or any other Note Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent or Collateral Agent in connection therewith; provided that no Note Holder shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Note Holder hereby authorizes each of Agent and
Collateral Agent to setoff and apply any amounts owing to such Note Holder under any Note Document or from any other source against such amounts due to Agent or Collateral Agent under this subsection 12.9E. Without limiting the foregoing,
each Note Holder 

  
 131 

 
agrees to reimburse Agent and Collateral Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities
under, this Agreement and each other Note Document, to the extent that Agent or Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Issuer or other Note Document Parties. 

F. Each of Agent and Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
thereof to Note Holders and Issuer, and upon any such resignation, Required Note Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. If no successor Agent or Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by
Required Note Holders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent or Collateral Agent may, on behalf of Note
Holders, appoint a successor Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, which shall be a Note Holder if a Note Holder is willing to accept such appointment. If no successor Agent or Collateral Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing within
thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and Issuer shall appoint a successor Agent or Collateral Agent that shall thereafter perform all the duties of
Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, until such time, if any, as the Required Note Holders appoint a successor Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time, the EIG Note Holders collectively hold less
than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, EIG MC, if it is then the Agent, shall, upon the request of Issuer, immediately resign as Agent, and upon any such resignation, Issuer shall appoint a successor Agent. Except with
respect to the appointment of a successor Agent by Issuer, any successor Agent or Collateral Agent appointed hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Issuer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided
that such approval shall not be required if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Issuer shall pay all reasonable costs associated with the appointment of such successor Agent or Collateral Agent and Issuer shall
pay all reasonable costs, fees and expenses charged by, or owing to, such successor Agent in connection with its obligations and duties as Agent or Collateral Agent under the Note Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent or
Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or Collateral Agent, such successor Agent or Collateral Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s resignation, the resigning Agent or Collateral Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Note Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s or Collateral
Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this subsection 12.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent or Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other
Note Documents. In the event any Agent or Collateral Agent shall resign under this Agreement, and a successor Agent or Collateral Agent is appointed in replacement thereof, Issuer agrees at its own expense to (and to cause the other Note Document
Parties to) enter into such amendments, modifications and supplements to this Agreement and the other Note 

  
 132 

 
Documents, and to execute any additional filings and notices, as may be required to reflect such resignation and replacement, or as any subsequent Agent or Collateral Agent shall reasonably
request in light of its then customary terms for service as an agent or collateral agent in transactions such as those contemplated by the Note Documents. 

G. Neither Issuer nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, managers, officers, agents or employees shall be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, including the failure by Agent to duly or timely perform its duties hereunder. Any Note Document Party shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of,
this Agreement or the other Note Documents by acting upon any notice, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by Agent or the Required Note Holders.
Issuer also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by Agent, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. 

H. As between the Agent and each Note Holder, so long as the Agent (or any Affiliate of the Agent) is acting as a manager of, adviser
or sub-adviser to, or general partner of, any Note Holder which is an investment fund or company, or managed account, nothing in this Agreement or any other Note Document is intended to modify in any manner adverse to the Agent or its Affiliates any
standard of care, protective, exculpatory or indemnity provision, or other right or remedy of the Agent or its Affiliates vis-à-vis such Note Holder, as set forth in any subscription agreement, management agreement, side letter agreement,
limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or similar organizational document, or other contract between the Agent or any Affiliate of the Agent (in its such entity’s capacity as a manager of, adviser or sub-adviser to, or
general partner of, such Note Holder) and such Note Holder. 
 I. Collateral Agent may also from time to time, when Collateral Agent
deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Supplemental Collateral Agent”) with respect to all or any part of the
Collateral; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent.
Should any instrument in writing from any other Secured Party or any Note Document Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Supplemental Collateral
Agent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Agent, the Required Note Holders or any Note Document Party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by Collateral Agent. If any Supplemental
Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be
exercised by Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Supplemental Collateral Agent that it selects in
accordance with the foregoing provisions of this subsection 12.9 in the absence of Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any notice, request or other writing given to Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have been
given to each applicable Supplemental Collateral Agent. 

  
 133 

 J. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof and as otherwise
specifically set forth herein, Collateral Agent shall not have any duty as to any of the Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against
prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or
otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission
of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith. 
 K. Collateral Agent
shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any
action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of Collateral Agent, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any
agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Note Document Parties to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to
the maintenance of the Collateral. 
 L. In the event that Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to any Property for any
reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any obligation for the benefit of another, which in Collateral Agent’s sole discretion may cause Collateral Agent to be considered an “owner or
operator” under the provisions of CERCLA, or otherwise cause Collateral Agent to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as
Collateral Agent or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. Collateral Agent shall not be liable to the Secured Parties or any other Person for any Environmental Claims under any federal, state or
local law, rule or regulation by reason of Collateral Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to the discharge, release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials into the environment. If at any
time it is necessary or advisable for any part of any of the Note Document Parties’ Property that constitutes Collateral to be possessed, owned, operated or managed by any Person other than the Issuer or the Secured Parties, the Secured Parties
shall, pursuant to an act of Secured Parties, direct the Collateral Agent to appoint an appropriately qualified Person (excluding the Collateral Agent) who it shall designate to possess, own, operate or manage, as the case may be, such part of the
Note Document Parties’ Property. 
 M. Neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents. 

N. Agent and Collateral Agent may refrain from taking any action in any jurisdiction if, in its opinion, the taking of such action in
that jurisdiction would be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or of the State of New York, it would otherwise render it liable to any 

  
 134 

 
Person in that jurisdiction or the State of New York, the taking of such action would require it to obtain any license or otherwise qualify to do business or subject it to taxation in such
jurisdiction, it would not have the power or authority to take such action in such jurisdiction by virtue of any law in that jurisdiction or in the State of New York, or it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction
or in the State of New York that it does not have such power or authority. 
 O. Neither Agent nor Collateral Agent will not be
liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of profit), except where such damages arise from Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, gross
negligence or willful misconduct, even if Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, has been advised as to the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

P. Neither Agent nor Collateral Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military
disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action; it being
understood that Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances 

Q. Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless
a Trust Officer of the Collateral Agent has received written notice at the Corporate Trust Office of the Collateral Agent from a Responsible Officer of a Secured Party or a Note Document Party referring to this Agreement and the applicable document
or documents governing such Default Event of Default, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Event of Default”. Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for any representations,
warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by Collateral Agent to the
other Secured Parties, or by or on behalf of the Issuer, to any Secured Party, or the Collateral Agent in connection with the Note Documents, and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of the Issuer
or any other Person liable for the payment of any Note Obligations, nor shall Collateral Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in
any of the Note Documents or as to the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. 

R. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations
upon, Collateral Agent or Agent in their respective individual capacities as a Secured Party hereunder. With respect to Note Obligations made or renewed by it or any of its Affiliates, Collateral Agent, Agent and their

  
 135 

 
respective Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Note Documents as any Secured Party and may exercise the same as though Collateral Agent and Agent
were not Collateral Agent and Agent, respectively. 
 S. None of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Note Documents shall
be construed to require either of Collateral Agent or Agent in its individual capacities or otherwise to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or
thereunder. 
 12.10 Investment Representation of Note Purchasers 

In order to induce Issuer to issue and sell the Notes to the Note Purchasers (including the issuance of the Initial Second Phase Notes to the
Second Phase Note Purchasers and any Additional Notes to the Note Holders and, for purposes of this subsection 12.10, each Note Holder acquiring an Additional Note shall be considered a Note Purchaser), each Note Purchaser hereby represents
and warrants to Issuer, and acknowledges as follows: 
 A. Organization and Standing. Such Note Purchaser is a corporation or other
entity duly incorporated or formed and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation. 

B. Authorization; Enforceability. Such Note Purchaser has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and (assuming due
execution by the other parties hereto) this Agreement constitutes its valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except to the extent the enforceability thereof may be limited by (i) the effects
of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing. 
 C. Investment. Such Note
Purchaser acquired each such Note solely for its own account, for investment purposes, with no intention of distributing or reselling such Note in any public offering or in any transaction that would be in violation of applicable securities laws of
the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction or any state or province thereof, without prejudice, however, to such Note Purchaser’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Note under an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws (it being understood that Issuer has no obligation or intention to undertake any such registration), or an exemption from such registration
requirements and in compliance with applicable securities laws. Such Note Purchaser has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Note by means of any form of general solicitation or general
advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(a) of Regulation D of the Securities Act, or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. 

D. Accredited Investor. Such Note Purchaser, at the time that it committed to enter into this Agreement was, and now is, an
“accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. 

  
 136 

 E. No Resale or Repurchase. No person has made to such Note Purchaser any written or oral
representations (i) that any person will resell or repurchase the Notes (except in accordance with the articles of Issuer), or (ii) that any person will refund the purchase price of the Notes, or (iii) as to the future price or value
of the Notes. 
 F. Private Placement. Note Purchaser understands that the Notes are being offered for sale only on a
“private placement” basis and that the sale and delivery of the Notes is conditional upon such sale being exempt from the requirements as to the filing of a prospectus or registration statement or delivery of an offering memorandum or upon
the issuance of such orders, consents or approvals as may be required to permit such sale without the requirement of filing a prospectus or delivering an offering memorandum and, as a consequence, (i) the Note Purchaser is restricted from using
most of the civil remedies available under applicable securities legislation, (ii) the Note Purchaser may not receive information that would otherwise be required to be provided to it under applicable securities legislation, and
(iii) Issuer is relieved from certain obligations that would otherwise apply under applicable securities legislation. 
 G.

to evaluate the merits and risks of entering into this Agreement, receiving the Notes, (ii) is able to bear the economic risk of the transaction, (iii) is able to hold its interest indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition thereof is
registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from registration and is completed in compliance with applicable securities laws, (iv) has been independently advised as to restrictions with respect to trading in the Notes imposed by applicable

of the Notes, and the risks relating to an investment therein. 
 H. No Materials. Without limiting the representations and
warranties set forth in the Note Documents, such Note Purchaser has not received or been provided with, nor has it requested, nor does it have any need to receive, any offering memorandum, any prospectus, sales or advertising literature describing
or purporting to describe the business and affairs of Issuer which has been prepared for delivery to, and review by, prospective purchasers in order to assist them in making an investment decision in respect of the Notes. 

I. Transfer Restrictions. Such Note Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that none of the Notes has been registered under the Securities
Act or the securities laws of any country or state, and none of them may be sold or otherwise transferred in the absence of an effective registration thereunder unless an exemption from registration is available. Such Note Purchaser also
acknowledges and agrees that the Notes are subject to resale restrictions in the United States, may be subject to resale restrictions in jurisdictions other than the United States under applicable securities laws, and that any sale or transfer will
be completed in compliance with applicable securities laws. 

  
 137 

 J. Offers and Sales only in Certain Circumstances. If such Note Purchaser decides to
offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of the Notes, it will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of such Notes, directly or indirectly, unless: (a) the sale is made pursuant to registration of the Notes under the Securities

 K. Subsequent Purchaser Notification. Such Note Purchaser will take reasonable steps to inform, and cause each of its
Affiliates that is a U.S. person (as defined in Section 902 of Regulation S under the Securities Act) to take reasonable steps to inform, any person acquiring Notes from such Note Purchaser or Affiliate, as the case may be, in the United
States that the Notes (A) have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, (B) are being sold to them without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 144A or in accordance with another exemption

securities laws and regulations, (3) inside the United States in accordance with (x) Rule 144A to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a qualified institutional buyer, as defined in Rule 144A (“Qualified

No failure or delay on the part of Agent, Collateral Agent or any Note Holder in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under
any other Note Document and no course of dealing between Issuer and Agent, Collateral Agent or any Note Holder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other

 12.17 Marshaling; Recapture 

None of Agent, Collateral Agent or any Note Holder shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Issuer or any other party or
against or in payment of any or all of the Note Obligations. To the extent any Note Holder receives any payment by or on behalf of Issuer, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required to be repaid to Issuer or its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the
obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of Issuer to such Note Holder as of the date such initial payment,
reduction or such satisfaction occurred. 
 12.18 Severability 

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes or the other Note Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor
in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 12.19
Survival 
 All indemnities (and expense reimbursement) set forth herein, including those set forth in subsections 3.2,
3.5, 3.7, 12.2, 12.7 and 12.9, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the Discharge Date. In addition, each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made pursuant
hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and no Note Holder shall be deemed to have waived, by reason of advancing funds in respect of the purchase of Notes, any Default or Event of Default which may arise by reason of
such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that such Note Holder may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such Notes
were purchased. 
 12.20 Independence of Covenants 

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK DISMISS FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION OR OTHERWISE REFUSE TO HEAR ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING, EACH PARTY HERETO SHALL ACCEPT THE JURISDICTION OF
ANY OTHER APPLICABLE COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID,
TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS REFERRED TO IN SUBSECTION 12.4. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR
IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE
PROCEED IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
 C. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHT
OF TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER NOTE DOCUMENT OR ANY MATTER ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

 12.22 Confidentiality 

Each of Agent and each Note Holder agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives)
to keep confidential the Confidential Information; provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information (a) to its Affiliates, and its and such Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, advisory
committee members, investment committee members, members, limited partners, co-investors and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors of all of the foregoing on a need-to-know basis (it being understood that the Persons to
whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (b) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, arbitral or judicial process or
otherwise requested by any Governmental Authority (provided that (A) such disclosure is made in accordance with such agency’s, court’s or other Governmental Authority’s request and is kept to the minimum necessary (in the
reasonable assessment of such Person and its counsel) for the purpose for which it is made and (B) such Person shall, subject in all cases to legal and regulatory restrictions, have given, as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving such
a request, written notice to the Issuer prior to such disclosure and considered its views in relation to such requested disclosures to the extent such views are reasonable and are received within the time period that it has to make the requested
disclosure), (c) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Note Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (d) subject to an
agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this subsection 12.22, to (1) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective
counterparty’s professional advisors) to any transactions relating to Note Obligations, (2) any actual or potential transferee of any Note or other Note Obligation, (3) any successor or assign of the business, in whole or in part, of
any Note Holder or any Agent or Collateral Agent, (4) any financier to any Note Holder or Agent or Collateral Agent, or (e) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally
recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Note Holder’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Note Holder or its Affiliates; provided that such
disclosure is kept to the minimum necessary (in the reasonable assessment of such Person and its counsel) for the purpose for which it is made. The obligations of Agent, Collateral Agent and each Note Holder under this subsection 12.22 shall
supersede and replace the obligations of Agent or any Note Holder under any other confidentiality agreement in respect of this financing signed and delivered by Agent, Collateral Agent or any Note Holder to Issuer prior to the Closing Date or prior
to the date on which any Person becomes a Transferee. Each of Agent and each Note Holder acknowledges that it is aware, and that each such Person’s directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives who receive Confidential
Information in accordance with this subsection 12.22 shall be made aware, that the United States securities laws prohibit any Person who has received from any Issuer Party or their agents and representatives material, nonpublic information
concerning Parent or its Affiliates from purchasing or selling securities of Parent or its Affiliates or from communicating such nonpublic information concerning Parent or its Affiliates to any other Person. By accepting Confidential Information,
each Note Holder, 

  
 142 

 
each Note Holder Observer, and each participant in any Note, will be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed to abide by the terms of this subsection 12.22, and to further acknowledge and
agree that neither it nor any of its Affiliates may use such Confidential Information for any purpose which is not directly related to the administration, oversight, syndication or enforcement of the transactions contemplated by the Note Documents.

 12.23 Immunity 

To the extent that Issuer or any other Issuer Party may be or become entitled, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any
time be commenced with respect to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, to claim for itself or its property any immunity from suit, court jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment, execution
of a judgment or from any other legal process or remedy relating to its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not
claimed), Issuer hereby irrevocably agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of any other Issuer Party, not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction and agrees that the
foregoing waiver shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and is intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act. 

12.24 Entire Agreement 

A. This Agreement and the other Note Documents, together with the provisions of the Permitted Senior Debt Documents referenced herein,
constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and, except as set forth in subsection 11.2, supersede all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements between the parties regarding the subject matter
hereof, whether oral or written, including the Original Note Purchase Agreement; provided that Section 13 of the Commitment Letter (and the other applicable provisions referenced in such Section 13) and the Fee Letter shall remain
in full force and effect except to the extent superseded by the provisions of this Agreement. 
 B. If there is a conflict or
inconsistency, whether direct or indirect, or actual or apparent, between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the EIG Indemnification Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern and
control, unless explicitly overridden by the terms of the EIG Indemnification Agreement.  
 12.25 Limited Recourse

 Except as expressly provided in Section 9 hereof, the Parent Pledge Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any
Additional Note Document to which Parent or any other member or holder of equity interests of Issuer may be a party with respect to Parent or such other equity holder, no manager, director, officer, employee, or member of Issuer shall have any
liability for any Note Obligations, including Obligations of Issuer under the Notes or this Agreement, or any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such Obligations or their creation. Each Note Holder, by accepting the Notes, irrevocably
waives and releases all such liability; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the foregoing waiver in this subsection 12.25  

  
 143 

 
shall not constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any of Parent’s Obligations under Section 9 hereof, the Parent Pledge Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any
Additional Note Document to which Parent may be a party, nor shall the foregoing waiver limit or restrict the rights of the Secured Parties with respect to such Obligations or the Lien created pursuant to the Parent Pledge Agreement, the obligations
of the Parent under the Registration Rights Agreement or any Additional Note Document to which Parent may be a party that creates, or purports to create, any security interest. 

The waiver and release in this subsection 12.25 are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

EXHIBIT A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT
1.    Grant.  The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant attached as Part I of this Award Agreement (the “Participant”) under the Plan an Award of Restricted Stock Units, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference.  Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.
2.    Company’s Obligation to Pay.  Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it vests.  Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Section 3, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units.  Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.  Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections 3 or 4 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any Tax-Related Items as defined and as set forth in Section 6.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4, such vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period ending no later than the date that is two and one-half (21⁄2) months from the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date.
3.    Vesting Schedule.  Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 6, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant.  Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in Participant in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs as further described in Section 6.
4.    Administrator Discretion.  The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan.  If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting and payment of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company) other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a U.S. taxpayer and “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such 

3

6584426-v15\GESDMS

accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death.  It is the intent of this Award Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.  For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.
5.    Dividend Equivalents.  Participant shall be entitled to receive the equivalent value (in cash or Shares) of any dividends paid on each Share for each Restricted Stock Unit (a “Dividend Equivalent”).  Any Dividend Equivalent that becomes payable shall be paid at the same time that the underlying Restricted Stock Unit is paid pursuant to Section 2.
6.    Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, the balance of the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, for any or no reason and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder, will immediately terminate upon Participant’s termination as a Service Provider.  For purposes of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant's status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later to be found invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and Participant’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant's period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Restricted Stock Unit grant (including whether Participant may still be considered to be a Service Provider while on a leave of absence).
7.    Death of Participant.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant was a U.S. resident and is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant was not a U.S. resident and is then deceased, be made to the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

4

6584426-v15\GESDMS

8.    Withholding of Taxes.  Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Parent or Subsidiary retaining or employing Participant (the “Employer”) the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.  Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares.  
The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may satisfy any Tax-Related Items, in whole or in part (without limitation) by (a) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Participant by the Company and/or any Parent or Subsidiary, (b) withhold otherwise deliverable Shares, or (c) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise).  Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent.  
To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax-Related Items by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant.  In this case, for tax purposes, Participant will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.
If Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Company will withhold in Shares upon the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, unless the Company determines that such withholding method is problematic under Applicable Laws.  In this case, Participant may elect the form of withholding from the alternatives above.

5

6584426-v15\GESDMS

Finally, Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax-Related Items obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections 3 or 4, Participant will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units and any right to receive Shares thereunder and the Restricted Stock Units will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.
9.    Rights as Stockholder.  Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant.  After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
10.    No Guarantee of Continued Service.  PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS AN ACTIVE SERVICE PROVIDER, AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER.  PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY (OR THE EMPLOYER) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

12.    No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares.  Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
13.      Data Privacy.  Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement and any other Restricted Stock Unit grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.

Participant understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  

Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future, which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.  Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country.  Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative.  Participant authorizes the Company, its broker and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan.  Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan.  Participant understands if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative.  Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis.  If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only consequence of refusing 

8

6584426-v15\GESDMS

or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Participant Restricted Stock Units or other Awards or administer or maintain such Awards.  Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.  For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.

Where the Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will violate U.S. federal securities laws or other Applicable Laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation.  
18.    Plan Governs.  This Award Agreement is subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan.

22.    Agreement Severable.  In the event that any provision in this Award Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Award Agreement.
23.    Modifications to the Agreement.  This Award Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties on the subjects covered.  Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Award Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein.

24.    Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan.  By accepting this Award, Participant expressly warrants that he or she has received an Award of Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, and has received, read and understood a description of the Plan.

29.    Insider Trading / Market Abuse Restrictions.  Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., the Restricted Stock Units) under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company (as defined by the laws in Participant’s country).  Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy.  Participant is responsible for ensuring Participant’s compliance with any applicable restrictions and is advised to speak with his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.    

30.    Waiver.  Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Award Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Award Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Participant or any other Participant.

Terms and Conditions
This Addendum includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units granted to Participant under the Plan if Participant resides and/or works in one of the countries listed below.  This Addendum forms part of the Award Agreement.  
If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes or transfers employment and/or residency between countries after the Date of Grant, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the additional terms and conditions included herein will apply to Participant under these circumstances.

The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in Participant’s country as of January 2015.  Such laws are often complex and change frequently.

In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result.  Accordingly, Participant is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country may apply to Participant’s situation.
Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes or transfers employment and/or residency between countries after the Date of Grant, the information contained herein may not be applicable in the same manner to Participant.

CHINA
Terms and Conditions
The following provisions will apply to Participants who are subject to PRC exchange control restrictions, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:
Immediate Sale Restriction.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or Award Agreement, due to exchange control laws in China, Participant agrees that any Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units may be immediately sold at vesting or, at the Company’s discretion, at a later time (including when Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates).  If, however, the sale of the Shares is not permissible under the Company’s insider trading policy, or if any requisite exchange control approval for the Plan in China has not been obtained, the Company retains the discretion to postpone the issuance of the Shares subject to Participant’s vested Restricted Stock Units until such time that the sale is again permissible and to then immediately sell the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units.  Participant further agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of the Shares (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), and Participant expressly authorizes such broker to complete the sale of such Shares.  Participant acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price.  Upon the sale of the Shares, the Company agrees to pay the cash proceeds from the sale, less any brokerage fees or commissions, to Participant in accordance with applicable exchange control laws and regulations and provided any liability for Tax-Related Items resulting from the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units has been satisfied.  Due to fluctuations in the Share price and/or the US dollar exchange rate between the vesting date and (if later) the date on which the Shares are sold, the sale proceeds may be more or less than the market value of the Shares on the vesting date (which is the amount relevant to determining Participant’s tax liability).  Participant understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for the amount of any loss Participant may incur and that the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in the Share price and/or US dollar exchange rate.
Exchange Control Information.  Participant understands and agrees that, to facilitate compliance with exchange control laws in China, Participant may be required to immediately repatriate to China the cash proceeds from the sale of any Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units and any dividends or Dividend Equivalents received in relation to the Shares.  Participant further understands that, under local law, such repatriation of the cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, and Participant hereby consents and agrees that the proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under 

17

6584426-v15\GESDMS

the Plan and any dividends received in relation to the Shares may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant.  
The proceeds may be paid to Participant in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion.  In the event the proceeds are paid to Participant in U.S. dollars, Participant understands that Participant will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China and provide the bank account details to the Employer and/or the Company so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account.  
Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold or dividends or Dividend Equivalents are paid and the time the proceeds are distributed to Participant through any such special account.
Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

Nature of Grant.  This provision supplements Section 10 of the Award Agreement:
By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that Participant has received a copy of the Plan.
Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and in its sole discretion decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be Service Providers throughout the world.  The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not bind the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, other than to the extent set forth in this Award Agreement.  Consequently, Participant understands that the Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Restricted Stock Units and any Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units are not part of any employment or service contract (either with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary), and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation), or any other right whatsoever.  In addition, Participant understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of or right to the Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void.
Further, except as otherwise provided in the Plan and the Award Agreement, Participant understands that he or she will not be entitled to continue vesting in any Restricted Stock Units once Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates.  This will be the case, for example, even in the event of a termination of Participant’s status of a Service Provider by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, retirement, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjusted or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective dismissal or objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985.  Participant acknowledges that Participant has read and specifically accepts the vesting and termination conditions in the Award Agreement.

Exchange Control Information.

6584426-v15\GESDMS

If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year (April 6 - April 5) in which such event giving rise to the income tax liability occurs, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”),  the amount of any uncollected income tax shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective on the Due Date.  Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Official Rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”), it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 10 of the Award Agreement.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Participant shall not be eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the income tax.  In the event that Participant is a director or executive officer and income tax not collected from or paid by Participant by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable.  Participant acknowledges that Participant ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company or the Employer (as applicable) for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Employer may recover from Participant at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 10 of the Award Agreement.    
Joint Election for Transfer of the Employer’s Secondary Class 1 NICs Liability to the Participant.  As a condition of vesting in the Restricted Stock Units, Participant agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 NICs, which may be payable by the Company or the Employer in connection with the Restricted Stock Units (“Employer NICs”).  Without limitation to the foregoing, Participant agrees to enter into an election between Participant and the Company or the Employer (the “Election”), in the form approved for such Election by HMRC, and any other consents or elections required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer NICs to Participant, prior to vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.  Participant further agrees to enter into such other joint elections as may be required between Participant and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer.  If Participant does not enter into the Election prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant shall, without any liability to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, not be entitled to vest in the Restricted Stock Units.
Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs by any of the means set forth in Section 10 of the Award Agreement, as supplemented above.

EXHIBIT A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT GRANT
1.    Grant.  The Company hereby grants to the individual named in the Notice of Grant attached as Part I of this Award Agreement (the “Participant”) under the Plan an Award of PSUs, the vesting of which is based on the attainment of the Performance Goal set forth in the Performance Goal Matrix (attached as Exhibit B), subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Award Agreement and the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference.  Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Notice of Grant and the Plan.
Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail; provided, however, that to the extent the PSUs are intended to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation, the provisions of the Performance Award Plan will prevail to the extent necessary to ensure that the PSUs will be treated as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. 
2.    Company’s Obligation to Pay.  Unless and until the PSUs will have vested in the manner set forth in Section 3, Participant will have no right to payment of any such PSUs.  Prior to actual payment of any vested PSUs, such PSU will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.  Any PSUs that vest in accordance with Sections 3 or 4 will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any Tax-Related Items as defined and as set forth in Section 8.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4, such vested PSUs will be paid in Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case within the period ending no later than the date that is two and one-half (21⁄2) months from the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date.
3.    Vesting Conditions.  Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 6, the PSUs awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant.  PSUs scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in Participant in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs, as further described in Section 6.
4.    Administrator Discretion.  The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested PSUs at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan, provided, however, that the vesting of PSUs that are intended to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall not be accelerated to the extent that any such vesting acceleration would cause the PSUs to fail to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation.  If so accelerated, such PSUs will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting and payment of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the PSUs that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A is accelerated in connection 

42

6623174-v9\GESDMS

with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company) other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a U.S. taxpayer and “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated PSUs will result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated PSUs will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the PSUs will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate not more than ninety (90) days following his or her death.  It is the intent of this Award Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the PSUs provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.  For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.
5.    Dividend Equivalents.  Participant shall be entitled to receive the equivalent value (in cash or Shares) of any dividends paid on each Share for each Earned PSU (as such term is defined in Exhibit B) (a “Dividend Equivalent”).  Any Dividend Equivalent that becomes payable shall be paid at the same time that the underlying PSU is paid pursuant to Section 2.
6.    Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Award Agreement, the balance of the PSUs that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, for any or no reason and Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder, will immediately terminate upon Participant’s termination as a Service Provider.  For purposes of the PSUs, Participant's status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later to be found invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and Participant’s right to vest in the PSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant's period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any); the Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the PSU grant (including whether Participant may still be considered to be a Service Provider while on a leave of absence).
7.    Death of Participant.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant was a U.S. resident and is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant was not a U.S. resident and is then deceased, be made to the 

43

6623174-v9\GESDMS

administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
8.    Withholding of Taxes.  Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Parent or Subsidiary retaining or employing Participant (the “Employer”) the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the PSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the PSUs to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.  Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares.  
The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may satisfy any Tax-Related Items, in whole or in part (without limitation) by (a) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Participant by the Company and/or any Parent or Subsidiary, (b) withhold otherwise deliverable Shares, or (c) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise).  Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Share equivalent.  
To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax-Related Items by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant.  In this case, for tax purposes, Participant will be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested PSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

44

6623174-v9\GESDMS

If Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Company will withhold in Shares upon the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, unless the Company determines that such withholding method is problematic under Applicable Laws.  In this case, Participant may elect the form of withholding from the alternatives above.
Finally, Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described.  If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax-Related Items obligations hereunder at the time any applicable PSUs otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections 3 or 4, Participant will permanently forfeit such PSUs and any right to receive Shares thereunder and the PSUs will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.
9.    Rights as Stockholder.  Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant.  After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.
10.    No Guarantee of Continued Service.  PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE PSUs PURSUANT TO THE VESTING CONDITIONS HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS AN ACTIVE SERVICE PROVIDER, AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF PSUs OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER.

12.    Nature of Grant.  In accepting the Award, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
a.the grant of the PSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of PSUs, or benefits in lieu of PSUs, even if PSUs have been granted in the past; 
b.all decisions with respect to future PSUs or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

46

6623174-v9\GESDMS

agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim; and
i.unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the PSUs and the benefits evidenced by this Award Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the PSUs or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and

j.the following provisions apply only if Participant is providing services outside the United States:

(i)    the PSUs and the Shares subject to the PSUs are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose; and

13.    No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares.  Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
14.      Data Privacy.  Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement and any other PSU grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.

Participant understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all PSUs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.  

Participant understands that Data will be transferred to Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future, which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.

laws and protections than Participant’s country.  Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative.  Participant authorizes the Company, its broker and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing his or her participation in the Plan.  Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan.  Participant understands if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative.  Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis.  If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Participant PSUs or other Awards or administer or maintain such Awards.

Terms and Conditions
This Addendum includes additional terms and conditions that govern the PSUs granted to Participant under the Plan if Participant resides and/or works in one of the countries listed below.  This Addendum forms part of the Award Agreement. If Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes or transfers employment and/or residency between countries after the Date of Grant, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the additional terms and conditions included herein will apply to Participant under these circumstances.

CHINA
Terms and Conditions
The following provisions will apply to Participants who are subject to PRC exchange control restrictions, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion:
Immediate Sale Restriction.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or Award Agreement, due to exchange control laws in China, Participant agrees that any Shares acquired at vesting of the PSUs may be immediately sold at vesting or, at the Company’s discretion, at a later time (including when Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates).  If, however, the sale of the Shares is not permissible under the Company’s insider trading policy, or if any requisite exchange control approval for the Plan in China has not been obtained, the Company retains the discretion to postpone the issuance of the Shares subject to Participant’s vested PSUs until such time that the sale is again permissible and to then immediately sell the Shares subject to the PSUs.  Participant further agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of the Shares (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), and Participant expressly authorizes such broker to complete the sale of such Shares.  Participant acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price.  Upon the sale of the Shares, the Company agrees to pay the cash proceeds from the sale, less any brokerage fees or commissions, to Participant in accordance with applicable exchange control laws and regulations and provided any liability for Tax-Related Items resulting from the vesting of the PSUs has been satisfied.  Due to fluctuations in the Share price and/or the US dollar exchange rate between the vesting date and (if later) the date on which the Shares are sold, the sale proceeds may be more or less than the market value of the Shares on the vesting date (which is the amount relevant to determining Participant’s tax liability).  Participant understands and agrees that the Company is not responsible for the amount of any loss Participant may incur and that the Company assumes no liability for any fluctuations in the Share price and/or US dollar exchange rate.
Exchange Control Information.  Participant understands and agrees that, to facilitate compliance with exchange control laws in China, Participant may be required to immediately repatriate to China the cash proceeds from the sale of any Shares acquired at vesting of the PSUs and any dividends or Dividend Equivalents received in relation to the Shares.  Participant further understands that, under local law, such repatriation of the cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, and Participant hereby consents and agrees that the proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and any dividends received in relation to the Shares may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Participant.  
The proceeds may be paid to Participant in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion.  In the event the proceeds are paid to Participant in U.S. dollars, Participant understands that Participant will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China and provide the bank account details to the Employer and/or the Company so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account.  

58

6623174-v9\GESDMS

Participant agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold or dividends or Dividend Equivalents are paid and the time the proceeds are distributed to Participant through any such special account.

Nature of Grant.  This provision supplements Section 12 of the Award Agreement:
By accepting the PSUs, Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges that Participant has received a copy of the Plan.
Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and in its sole discretion decided to grant PSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be Service Providers throughout the world.  The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not bind the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, other than to the extent set forth in the Plan.  Consequently, Participant understands that the PSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the PSUs and any Shares acquired at vesting of the PSUs are not part of any employment or service contract (either with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary), and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation), or any other right whatsoever.  In addition, Participant understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of or right to the PSUs shall be null and void.
Further, except as otherwise provided in the Plan and the Award Agreement, Participant understands that he or she will not be entitled to continue vesting in any PSUs once Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates.  This will be the case, for example, even in the event of a termination of Participant’s status of a Service Provider by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, retirement, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjusted or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective dismissal or objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985.  Participant acknowledges that Participant has read and specifically accepts the vesting and termination conditions in the Award Agreement.

In addition, the sale of Shares must also be declared on Form D-6 filed with the DGCI in January, unless the sale proceeds exceed the applicable threshold (currently €1,502,530), in which case, the filing is due within one month after the sale.
In addition, Participant is required to declare electronically to the Bank of Spain any foreign accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), any foreign instruments (including any Shares acquired under the Plan) and any transactions with non-Spanish residents (including any payments of Shares made to Participant by the Company) depending on the value of such accounts and instruments and the amount of the transactions during the relevant year as of December 31 of the relevant year.

As Participant is solely responsible for complying with the financial intermediary requirements and their application to participation in the Plan is uncertain, Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor prior to the vesting of the PSUs or any sale of Shares to ensure compliance.

PSUs Payable Only in Shares.  Notwithstanding any discretion in the Plan or anything to the contrary in the Award Agreement, the grant of PSUs does not provide any right for Participant to receive a cash payment, and the PSUs are payable in Shares only.
Withholding Taxes.   This provision supplements Section 8 of the Award Agreement: 
If payment or withholding of the income tax due is not made within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year (April 6 - April 5) in which such event giving rise to the income tax liability occurs, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), the amount of any uncollected income tax shall constitute a loan owed by Participant to the Employer, effective on the Due Date.  Participant agrees that the loan will bear interest at the then-current Official Rate of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”), it will be immediately due and repayable, and the Company or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 8 of the Award Agreement.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Participant shall not be eligible for a loan from the Company to cover the income tax.  In the event that Participant is a director or executive officer and income tax not collected from or paid by Participant by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable.  Participant acknowledges that Participant ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company or the Employer (as applicable) for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Employer may recover from Participant at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 8 of the Award Agreement.  
Joint Election for Transfer of the Employer’s Secondary Class 1 NICs Liability to the Participant.  As a condition of vesting in the PSUs, Participant agrees to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 NICs, which may be payable by the Company or the Employer in connection with the PSUs (“Employer NICs”).  Without limitation to the foregoing, Participant agrees to enter into an election between Participant and the Company or the Employer (the “Election”), in the form approved for such Election by HMRC, and any other consents or elections required to accomplish the transfer of the Employer NICs to Participant, prior to vesting of the PSUs.  Participant further

agrees to enter into such other joint elections as may be required between Participant and any successor to the Company and/or the Employer.  If Participant does not enter into the Election prior to the vesting of the PSUs, Participant shall, without any liability to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, not be entitled to vest in the PSUs.
Participant further agrees that the Company and/or the Employer may collect the Employer NICs by any of the means set forth in Section 8 of the Award Agreement, as supplemented above.
