• Securities Law Representations The Purchaser acknowledges that the Restricted Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, based, in part, in reliance upon an exemption from registration under Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, and a comparable exemption from qualification under applicable state securities laws, as each may be amended from time to time. The Purchaser, by executing this Agreement, hereby makes the following representations to the Company and acknowledges that the Company’s reliance on federal and state securities law exemptions from registration and qualification is predicated, in substantial part, upon the accuracy of these representations: • The Purchaser is acquiring the Restricted Shares solely for the Purchaser’s own account, for investment purposes only, and not with a view or an intent to sell, or to offer for resale in connection with any unregistered distribution, all or any portion of the shares within the meaning of the Securities Act and/or any applicable state securities laws. • The Purchaser is an “accredited investor”, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. • The Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Restricted Shares. The Purchaser has been furnished with, and/or has access to, such information as the Purchaser considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Restricted Shares. However, in evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Restricted Shares, the Purchaser has and will rely only upon the advice of the Purchaser’s own legal counsel, tax advisors, and/or investment advisors. • The Purchaser is aware that any value the Restricted Shares may have depends on their vesting and certain other factors, and that any investment in common shares of a closely held corporation such as the Company is non-marketable, non-transferable and could acquire capital to be invested for an indefinite period of time, possibly without return, and at substantial risk of loss. • The Purchaser understands that the Restricted Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws, and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances, including in accordance with the conditions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect. The Purchaser acknowledges receiving a copy of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and represents that the Purchaser is familiar with such rule, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act and the applicable state securities law. • The Purchaser has read and understands the restrictions, limitations and the Company’s rights set forth in the Management Investor Rights Agreement, the Plan and this Agreement that will be imposed on the Restricted Shares (including those restrictions and limitations which will continue after the Shares have vested). The Purchaser acknowledges that to the extent the Purchaser is not a party to the Management Investor Rights Agreement at the time that the Purchaser purchases the Restricted Shares, such purchase shall be treated for all purposes as effecting the Purchaser’s simultaneous execution of the Management Investor Rights Agreement and the Purchaser shall be bound thereby. • The Purchaser has not relied upon any oral representation made to the Purchaser relating to the Restricted Shares or upon information presented in any promotional meeting or material relating to the Restricted Shares. • The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (a) any certificate evidencing the Restricted Shares (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) when issued shall bear any legends which may be required by applicable federal and state securities laws or the Management Investor Rights Agreement or the Plan, and (b) except as otherwise provided under the Management Investor Rights agreement, the Company has no obligation to register the Shares or file any registration statement under federal or state securities laws. The Committee reserves the right to account for Shares through book entry or other electronic means rather than the issuance of stock certificates.

• Labor Law Acknowledgment This provision supplements Sections 2(g) and 7 of the Agreement: By accepting the RSUs, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the Plan document. You understand and agree that, as a condition of the grant of the RSUs, except as provided for in Section 2 of the Agreement, your termination of employment for any reason (including for the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the forfeiture of any RSUs that have not vested on the date of your termination. In particular, you understand and agree that, unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, the RSUs will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying shares of Common Stock or to any amount as indemnification in the event of a termination of your employment prior to vesting by reason of, including, but not limited to: resignation, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without good cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”), individual or collective layoff on objective grounds, whether adjudged to be with cause or 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 Royal Decree 1382/1985. Furthermore, you understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or a subsidiary. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any subsidiary on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement. Consequently, you understand that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the RSUs and the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs shall not become a part of any employment or service contract (either with the Company, the Employer or any subsidiary) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, you understand that the RSUs would not be granted to you but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, you acknowledge and freely accept that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any Award of RSUs shall be null and void.

• Securities Law Matters Employee acknowledges that the Shares to be received by him or her upon exercise of the Option may have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Blue Sky laws of any state (collectively, the “Securities Acts”). If such Shares have not been so registered, Employee acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register, under the Securities Acts, the Shares received by him or her or to assist him or her in complying with any exemption from such registration if he or she should at a later date wish to dispose of the Shares. Employee acknowledges that if not then registered under the Securities Acts, the Shares shall bear a legend restricting the transferability thereof, such legend to be substantially in the following form: “The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered or qualified under federal or state securities laws. The shares may not be offered for sale, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed of unless so registered or qualified, unless an exemption exists or unless such disposition is not subject to the federal or state securities laws, and the Company may require that the availability or any exemption or the inapplicability of such securities laws be established by an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.”

• Company Acknowledgment The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
