The committee(s) on which any Independent HNA Designee serves shall be determined by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

(b) Until no HNA Designee serves as a Director on the Board (and the HNA Designator either no longer has any rights under this Article II to designate any HNA Designee to serve on the Board or irrevocably waives any such rights), the Company shall not amend the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any other organizational documents of the Company, or the charter or other governing documents of any committee of the Board, in any manner that adversely and disparately affects the right of any Independent HNA Designee to be a member of any such committee (except as otherwise required by Law or the rules of the Exchange).

(c) Each HNA Designee may attend, upon the request of such HNA Designee and on a non-voting basis, any meetings of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or other standing committee of the Board that may be established, except when such attendance would present an actual or potential conflict of interest for such HNA Designee in the good faith opinion of the applicable committee.

2.4 Qualification of HNA Designees.

(a) Each HNA Designee shall, at the time of his or her nomination or appointment as a Director and at all times thereafter until such individual ceases to serve as a Director:

(vi) if such HNA Designee is an Independent HNA Designee, meets the criteria set forth in the definition of “Independent HNA Designee” in Article I (the requirements set forth in this Section 2.4(a), Section 2.4(b) and Section 2.4(c) being referred to, collectively, as the “Designee Qualifications”).

(c) Each HNA Designee, as a condition to his or her initial appointment or election to the Board and any re-nomination for election to the Board, must be willing to be interviewed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee on the same basis as any other new candidate for appointment or election to the Board and must be reasonably satisfactory to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee acting in good faith. HNA, in its capacity as a stockholder of the Company on behalf of itself and other HNA Entities, and each HNA Designee, shall deliver such questionnaires and otherwise provide such information as are reasonably requested by the Company in connection with assessing qualification, independence and other criteria applicable to Directors, or required to be or customarily provided by directors, candidates for director, and their Affiliates and representatives for inclusion in a proxy statement or other filing required by applicable Law and the rules of the Exchange, in each case to substantially the same extent requested or required of other candidates for appointment or election to the Board after the date hereof.

2.5 Service on Specified Boards. The HNA Designator shall not designate any individual pursuant to Section 2.1 who, at the time of such designation, is a member or has been nominated to serve as a member of a Specified Board. If an HNA Designee becomes a member of a Specified Board, the HNA Designator shall use its best efforts to cause such HNA Designee to promptly tender to the Board his or her resignation as a Director.

2.6 Participation of HNA Designees in Certain Matters; Acquisition Proposals.

(a) The Company shall promptly provide HNA with written notice (an “Acquisition Notice”) of any written bona fide Acquisition Proposal that is received by or presented to the Board, and such Acquisition Notice need not specify the identity of the potential acquirer or any other terms of such Acquisition Proposal.

Section 2.6(b), the Company shall provide HNA with prior written notice of any meeting of the Board (or a committee thereof) scheduled to discuss, consider or vote upon such Acquisition Proposal at least twenty-four (24) hours before such meeting is convened.

(b) If (i) an Acquisition Notice has been delivered to HNA and, within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, an HNA Standstill Commitment is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any Acquisition Proposal previously made by an HNA Entity has been withdrawn, then the Affiliated HNA Designee shall be entitled, after but not before such HNA Standstill Commitment has been delivered to the Company, to participate in all discussions, consideration and voting by the Board regarding, and shall be entitled to receive any materials provided to the Board relating to, the Acquisition Proposal described in such Acquisition Notice, revisions to such Acquisition Proposal and any other Acquisition Proposal solicited by or on behalf of the Board in connection with the consideration of such Acquisition Proposal or made by a third party in response to such Acquisition Proposal (collectively, the “Related Acquisition Proposals”). If an HNA Standstill Commitment is not delivered to the Company within such ten (10) Business Day period, the Affiliated HNA Designee shall not be entitled to participate in any discussions, consideration or voting by the Board regarding, and shall not be entitled to receive any materials provided to the Board relating to, any such Acquisition Proposal or the Related Acquisition Proposals.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.6(b), the Affiliated HNA Designee shall not be entitled to participate in any discussions, consideration or voting by the Board regarding, and shall not be entitled to receive any Board (or committee) materials relating to, any transaction or matter that, in the good faith determination of the Board (other than the Affiliated HNA Designee), presents an actual or potential conflict of interest for such Affiliated HNA Designee, including, without limitation, any Acquisition Proposal involving an HNA Entity.

(d) Each Independent HNA Designee shall be permitted to participate in all discussions, consideration and voting by the Board regarding, and shall be entitled to receive any Board materials relating to, any Acquisition Proposal, except when such attendance or receipt of materials would present an actual or potential conflict of interest for such Independent HNA Designee in the good faith determination of the Board (other than the Affiliated HNA Designee and such Independent HNA Designee).

(e) If the Board establishes a committee of the Board to consider any Acquisition Proposal, one (1) HNA Designee, as determined by the HNA Designator, shall be entitled to be a member of such committee; provided, that such HNA Designee may be the Affiliated HNA Designee only if (i) an HNA Standstill Commitment has been delivered by HNA to the Company in accordance with Section 2.6(b), and (ii) any Acquisition Proposal previously made by an HNA Entity has been withdrawn.

2.7 Resignations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:

(a) if, at any time, the HNA Entities, in the aggregate, Beneficially Own at least fifteen percent (15%) but less than twenty percent (20%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and there are then more than two (2) HNA Designees on the

Board, if requested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the HNA Designator shall use its best efforts to cause one (1) or more HNA Designees selected by it to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board and any applicable committee of the Board such that there are not more than two (2) HNA Designees serving on the Board;

(b) if, at any time, the HNA Entities, in the aggregate, Beneficially Own at least five percent (5%) but less than fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, if requested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the HNA Designator shall use its best efforts to cause one (1) or more HNA Designees to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board and any applicable committee of the Board such that there is not more than one (1) HNA Designee serving on the Board; and

(c) if, at any time, the HNA Entities, in the aggregate, Beneficially Own less than five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, if requested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the HNA Designator shall use its best efforts to cause each HNA Designee to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board and any applicable committee of the Board such that there are no HNA Designees serving on the Board;

provided, however, that notwithstanding Section 2.1 and the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7, if the closing of an issuance of Equity Securities of the Company or a Stock Acquisition causes the HNA Entities’ Beneficial Ownership of shares of Common Stock, as a percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, to decline below a percentage specified in this Section 2.7 such that the HNA Designator would be required by this Section 2.7 to use its best efforts to cause any HNA Designee to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board, then (A) the HNA Designator shall not be required to use its best efforts to cause such HNA Designee to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board, and (B) the Company and the Board shall not seek or take any action to remove such HNA Designee from the Board, in each case unless in the twelve (12) month period following the date of the closing of such issuance of Equity Securities of the Company or Stock Acquisition, as the case may be, the HNA Entities have not made purchases of Common Stock in open market transactions, as permitted by Section 4.3(c), such that the HNA Entities’ Beneficial Ownership of shares of Common Stock, as a percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, exceeds the applicable percentage specified in this Section 2.7; provided, further, that if the Company has imposed any “blackout” period or periods that restrict the HNA Entities’ ability to purchase shares of Common Stock for more than sixty (60) days in the aggregate during such twelve (12) month period, such twelve (12) month period shall be extended by the number of days of such “blackout” period or periods in excess of sixty (60) days. If the HNA Designator is required to use its best efforts to cause an HNA Designee to tender his or her resignation from the Board and such HNA Designee does not promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board, such HNA Designee shall not thereafter be entitled to participate as a member of any committee of the Board pursuant to this Agreement.

2.8 Other HNA Investments. For the avoidance of doubt, no investment by any HNA Entity in any Person, including any Restricted Entity, shall limit the rights of the HNA Designator pursuant to this Article II.

THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXCHANGE THEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING TO SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF OCTOBER 24, 2016, AMONG HILTON WORLDWIDE HOLDINGS INC., HNA TOURISM GROUP CO., LTD. AND, SOLELY FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 4.3 THEREOF, HNA GROUP CO., LTD., AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the request of the applicable HNA Party, (i) in connection with any Transfer of Common Stock Transferred in accordance with the terms of this

Agreement, the Company shall promptly cause the second paragraph of the legend (or notation) to be removed upon such Transfer if such restrictions would not be applicable following such Transfer, (ii) following receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such legend (or notation) is no longer required under the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws, the Company shall promptly cause the first paragraph of the legend (or notation) to be removed from any Common Stock to be Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) to the extent the first and second paragraph of the legend (or notation) would be removed pursuant to this paragraph in connection with any Transfer of Common Stock, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause such Common Stock to be registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company’s nominee; provided, however, that any Transfer effected by a financial institution pursuant to any mortgage, encumbrance or pledge with respect to Common Stock shall be governed by the terms of any applicable Issuer Agreement among the Company, the applicable financial institution and any custodian party thereto in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

4.2 Right of First Refusal.

(a) If the Company, at any time or from time to time following the Closing, proposes to issue (a “New Issuance”) any New Securities, for cash in an offering that is not an underwritten public offering or an offering pursuant to Rule 144A (or a successor rule) under the Securities Act (any such offering, a “Private Placement”), the Company shall provide HNA with written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of such New Issuance at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the issuance of such New Securities. The Issuance Notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the New Issuance, including (i) the proposed number of New Securities if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof, (ii) a description of the New Securities and proposed manner of sale, (iii) the purchase price per New Security (or conversion price or premium in the event of an offering of convertible debt) (the “Per Security Offering Price”) if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof, and (iv) the proposed issuance date if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof. HNA shall be entitled to purchase (either directly or through any other HNA Parties or any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees), at the Per Security Offering Price and on the other terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice, up to the number of such New Securities that would result in the percentage of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock that is Beneficially Owned in the aggregate by all HNA Entities immediately following such New Issuance being equal to the percentage of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock that was Beneficially Owned in the aggregate by all HNA Entities immediately prior to such New Issuance, provided that for this purpose such percentage shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) (such percentage, the “Pro Rata Portion”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of New Securities that HNA (directly or through any other HNA Parties or their Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 4.2 with respect to any New Issuance shall be limited to the maximum amount that may be issued by the Company to HNA (directly or through any other HNA Parties or their Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) without requiring approval of such issuance by the stockholders of the Company under the rules of the Exchange, as determined in good faith by the Company (which such determination shall be binding on the parties).

(b) HNA may exercise its rights under this Section 4.2 by delivering written notice of its election to purchase (either directly or through any other HNA Parties or any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) such New Securities to the Company within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Issuance Notice, which notice shall specify the number of New Securities requested to be purchased by HNA. Delivery of such notice shall constitute a binding commitment of HNA to purchase (either directly or through any other HNA Parties or any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) the amount of New Securities so specified at the Per Security Offering Price and on the terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice. If, at the termination of such five (5) Business Day period, HNA has not exercised its right to purchase any such New Securities, HNA shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 4.2 with respect to, and only with respect to, the purchase of the New Securities specified in the applicable Issuance Notice.

(c) The closing of any sale of New Securities to HNA, any other HNA Parties or any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall take place concurrently with the consummation of the sale of the New Securities on the terms set forth in the Issuance Notice to all other Persons purchasing such New Securities (the “New Issuance Closing”).

(d) If the Company issues, at the New Issuance Closing, less than all of the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice, then the number of New Securities that HNA (and any other HNA Parties and any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) shall be entitled to purchase in connection with such New Issuance pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be reduced proportionately and HNA’s notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.2(b) shall be deemed amended to reflect such reduction. If the number of New Securities is reduced as contemplated by this Section 4.2(d), the Company shall not issue or sell the remainder of the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice without again complying with the provisions of this Section 4.2.

(e) If the New Issuance Closing (other than any over-allotment closing) does not occur within ninety (90) days after the date of the Issuance Notice, the Company shall not issue or sell the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice without again complying with the provisions of this Section 4.2.

(f) HNA (or any other HNA Parties or any of HNA’s Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees) shall, prior to the closing of any Private Placement in which any of them has elected to purchase New Securities pursuant to this Section 4.2, execute and deliver all such documents and instruments as are customarily required in connection with such an offering, including, without limitation, customary investment representations and representations as to its status as the type of offeree to whom a private sale may be made pursuant to the Securities Act, and any failure to deliver or enter into any such documents and instruments at or prior to such closing shall constitute a waiver of the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 4.2 with respect to such New Issuance.

4.3 Standstill.

(a) Subject to Section 4.3(b) and Section 4.3(c), on and after the Closing, HNA Group and the HNA Parties shall not, shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, and shall cause the representatives of HNA Group, the HNA Parties and their respective Affiliates acting at their direction not to, in any manner, directly or indirectly, to, without the prior written consent of, or waiver by, the Company:

(i) acquire, offer to acquire or agree to acquire, by purchase or otherwise, Beneficial Ownership of any Equity Securities of the Company (including any rights, options or other derivative securities or contracts or instruments to acquire such ownership that derives its value (in whole or in part) from such Equity Securities (whether currently, upon lapse of time, following the satisfaction of any conditions, upon the occurrence of any event or any combinations of the foregoing)) other than: (A) as a result of any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, subdivision, reorganization, reclassification or similar capital transaction involving Equity Securities of the Company; (B) discussions or negotiations to acquire a beneficial interest in any Equity Securities of the Company from Blackstone or any of its Affiliates, provided, that HNA Group, any HNA Party or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, has, prior to initiating such discussions or negotiations, notified the Board in writing of its intention to initiate such discussions or negotiations; provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, none of HNA Group, the HNA Parties or any of their respective Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, acquire a beneficial interest in any Equity Securities of the Company from Blackstone or any of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of the Company, (C) pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(ii), Section 4.1(b)(iii), Section 4.2 or Section 4.3(c) or (D) a Transfer between HNA Parties; provided, that no HNA Party shall be in breach of this Section 4.3(a)(i) as a result of the acquisition by any HNA Designee of any Equity Securities of the Company pursuant to (x) the grant or vesting of any equity compensation awards granted by the Company to any HNA Designee, or (y) the exercise of any stock options, restricted stock units, or similar awards relating to any Equity Securities of the Company granted by the Company to any HNA Designee;

(ii) make any public announcement or public offer with respect to any merger, business combination, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar extraordinary transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (unless such transaction is approved or affirmatively recommended by the Board);

(iii) make, knowingly encourage or in any way participate in, any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the SEC promulgated pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act) to vote any Voting Securities, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any Voting Securities (other than, in each case, in a manner that is not inconsistent with the Board’s recommendation in connection with a matter);

(iv) seek election to, or seek to place a representative on, the Board or removal of any member of the Board or otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek representation or to control or influence the management, the Board or policies of the Company (other than (A) with respect to the election or removal of an HNA Designee or (B) to vote in accordance with the requirements of Article III);

(v) call, or seek to call, a meeting of the stockholders of the Company or initiate any stockholder proposal for action by stockholders of the Company;

(vi) form, join or in any way participate in a Group with respect to Equity Securities (other than a Group consisting solely of HNA Parties);

(vii) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek to control or influence the management or the policies of the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any such act in their capacity as a commercial counterparty, customer, supplier, industry participant or the like);

(xii) contest the validity of this Section 4.3(a) or initiate or participate in any judicial proceeding to amend, waive, terminate or seek a release of the restrictions contained herein,

it being understood and agreed that (A) without prejudice to Section 2.6, this Section 4.3 shall not limit (x) the activities of any HNA Designee taken in good faith in his or her capacity as a Director or (y) the participation of any HNA Designee in any Board (or committee of the Board, as applicable) discussions, deliberations, negotiations or determinations, and (B) HNA and HNA Group shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 4.3 caused by any action taken by any HNA Entity or by a representative of an HNA Entity acting at the direction of any HNA Entity.

reasonably expected to know, that such actions would be reasonably likely to require HNA, the Company or any other Person to make a public announcement regarding such Acquisition Proposal; or (ii) from and after a public announcement of a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition entered into between the Company and any Person other than an HNA Entity and until the earlier of (A) the closing of such Acquisition and (B) ninety (90) days after the termination of such definitive agreement, notwithstanding any HNA Standstill Commitment or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, making and submitting to the Company, the Board, and/or the Company’s stockholders, an alternative Acquisition Proposal on a publicly disclosed and announced basis for all outstanding shares of Common Stock, which, if a tender or exchange offer, shall be on the same terms for all such shares and include a non-waivable condition that a majority of outstanding shares of Common Stock not Beneficially Owned by any HNA Entity are tendered into such offer, or (subject to Sections 3.3, 4.3(a)(i) and 4.7) taking any other action, whether or not otherwise restricted by Section 4.3(a) in connection with evaluating, making, submitting, negotiating, effectuating or implementing any such alternative Acquisition Proposal (or any amendment, supplement or modification thereto), including actively soliciting stockholders of the Company not to vote in favor of or to vote against such Acquisition by a Person other than an HNA Entity.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.3(a), HNA may (directly or through any other HNA Parties or any of their respective Controlled Affiliates that are HNA Permitted Transferees), at any time and from time to time, purchase shares of Common Stock in open market transactions in an amount that, when aggregated with the number of shares of Common Stock then Beneficially Owned by all HNA Entities, would not then exceed a percentage of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time equal to the lower of (i) twenty-five percent (25%) and (ii) the Adjusted Ownership Percentage (as defined in the following sentence).

For purposes of this Section 4.3(c), the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time shall be the number specified in the latest of (i) the most recent SEC filing of the Company disclosing the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or (ii) a written notice from the Company, which will be provided to HNA as soon as reasonably practicable upon a written request therefor from HNA following any New Issuance or Stock Acquisition.

Such tender by the HNA Parties shall be made within twelve (12) hours of notification from any depositary for such tender or exchange offer of the percentage of Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by holders other than HNA Entities then received by such depositary. The HNA Parties shall be free, in their sole discretion, to tender or not tender into such offer, any and all shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned by HNA Entities up to and including the Voting Percentage Limit.
