1

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows:

1. Amendments to Article I.

(a) Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definitions in their proper alphabetical order:

“Director Investor” means an individual who is or will be a non-employee director of the Company or one of its subsidiaries and who has entered or will enter into a Director Investor Agreement, it being understood that an individual shall not be deemed a Director Investor hereunder until such individual is a non-employee director of the Company or one of its subsidiaries and has entered into a Director Investor Agreement.

“Director Investor Agreement” means a stockholder’s agreement in substantially the form attached as Annex F hereto which has been, or which in the future will be, entered into among the Company, one or more Director Investors and the Investors.

(b) Section 1.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the term “Separate Agreement” in its proper alphabetical order, with a reference to such term in Section 2.7(a) where such term first appears.

2. Amendments to Article II.

(a) Section 2.7(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following Section 2.7(a):

In the event that the rights of first offer set forth in Section 2.9 are not exercised, any Investor or Permitted Transferee of any Investor proposing to Transfer any Equity Securities (a “Transferring Investor”) after the end of the Stockholders’ Agreement Transfer Restriction Period, or as otherwise permitted under Section 2.2(c), but prior to the Qualified IPO, shall be entitled to Transfer such Equity Securities during the time periods set forth in Section 2.9(e) and (f) subject to the following. The Transferring Investor shall have the obligation, and each other Investor, Management Investor and Permitted Transferees (for purposes of this Section 2.7, the “Other Investors”) who is not then in breach of this Agreement shall have the right, to include a number of shares of each class of Equity Securities in such proposed Transfer, at the same price per security and upon the same terms and conditions as to be paid and given to the Transferring Investor(s), equal to the product (rounded up to the nearest whole number) of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of such class of Equity Securities being Transferred held by such Other Investor and the denominator of which is the number of shares of such class of Equity Securities held by the Transferring Investor, all of the Other Investors seeking to exercise tag-along rights pursuant to this Section 2.7 and any other securityholders (including Other

2

Management Investors and Director Investors) seeking to exercise tag-along rights similar to those provided for in this Section 2.7 contained in a comparable agreement (including an Other Management Investor Agreement or a Director Investor Agreement) (each, a “Separate Agreement”) multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of such class of Equity Securities proposed to be sold in the contemplated sale. The Other Investors must agree to make substantially the same representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities and other similar agreements as the Transferring Investor(s) agree to make in connection with the proposed Transfer of the Equity Securities of the Transferring Investor(s).

(b) Section 2.7(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following Section 2.7(b):

Each Transferring Investor shall give notice to each of the Other Investors of each proposed Transfer giving rise to the rights of the Other Investors set forth in Section 2.7(a) at least 30 days prior to the proposed consummation of such Transfer, setting forth the name of the Transferring Investor, the number of shares proposed to be so transferred, the name and address of the proposed transferee, the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by such proposed transferee, and a representation that the proposed transferee has been informed of the “tag-along” rights provided for in this Section 2.7. The tag-along rights provided pursuant to this Section 2.7 must be exercised by any Other Investor within 15 days following receipt of the notice required by the preceding sentence, by delivery of a written notice to the Transferring Investor(s) indicating such Other Investor’s desire to exercise its rights and specifying the number of shares (up to the maximum number of shares owned by such Other Investor, subject to reduction in accordance with Section 2.7(a)). If any Other Investor or other securityholder (including Other Management Investors and Director Investors) seeking to exercise tag-along rights similar to those provided for in this Section 2.7 in a Separate Agreement accepts the offer contained in the tag-along notice required by the first sentence of this Section 2.7(b) or relevant section of any Separate Agreement, and the Transferring Investor has not consummated the proposed Transfer within six months from the date of the definitive agreement providing the terms and conditions of the sale of Equity Securities by the Transferring Investor to the proposed transferee, then the provisions of this Section 2.7 shall again apply, and such Transferring Investor shall not Transfer or offer to Transfer such Equity Securities not Transferred during such time period without again complying with this Section 2.7. If the proposed transferee fails to purchase shares from any Other Investor that has properly exercised its tag-along rights under Section 2.7(a), then the Transferring Investor(s) shall not be permitted to make the proposed Transfer.

3

3. Amendments to Article IX.

(a) Section 9.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following Section 9.2:

9.2 Other Stockholders’ Agreements. Other than the Securityholders Agreement, Other Management Investor Agreements and Director Investor Agreements (so long as consented to in writing by the Principal Investors), none of the parties hereto shall enter into any stockholder agreement or other arrangement of any kind with any Person with respect to, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Each party hereto agrees that any agreement other than this Agreement, Other Management Investor Agreements, Director Investor Agreements, the Securityholders Agreement and the restricted share unit grant agreements referred to in the Director Investor Agreements, with respect to, directly or indirectly, any Equity Securities among any of such parties are hereby terminated and of no further force and effect.

(b) Section 9.4 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following to the end of Section 9.4:

For the avoidance of doubt, no covenant or obligation of any party hereto shall inure to the benefit of any Director Investor and none of the Director Investors shall have any rights or remedies hereunder and no consent or approval of any Director Investor shall be required for any amendment or waiver of any term or provision hereof.
