COORDINATION

SECTION 2.01. Coordination Between the Upper-Tier Investors and the Company via the Co-Investment Stockholders, the EPE Overseas Co-Investors, EMI and EEH.

(a) One or more Affiliates of the Apollo Stockholder have formed certain Legacy Stockholders (specifically, and for the avoidance of doubt, each Co-Investment Stockholder, the EPE Overseas Co-Investors EMI and EEH) as special purpose investment vehicles through which their respective Upper-Tier Investors indirectly invest in the Company. In each case, an Affiliate of the Apollo Stockholder shall serve at all times as the general partner, manager, adviser, managing member, controlling stock-holder or in a similar control-based capacity (whether through the ownership of voting securities, as trustee or executor, by contract or otherwise) with respect to each such Legacy Stockholder (and with respect to any additional partnership, limited liability company, corporation or other vehicle through which the Upper-Tier Investors hold their interests in each such Legacy Stockholder indirectly (an “additional vehicle”)). In applying the provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, the Parties agree that each such Legacy Stockholder shall exercise, comply with, satisfy and otherwise determine equitably its rights, interests, entitlements, obligations, liabilities, agreements, covenants, acknowledgments and understandings for all purposes of this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws for and with respect to each of its Upper-Tier Investors, but, in each case, solely with respect to those Class A Shares or Class B Shares (as applicable) that each such Upper-Tier Investor would have held directly (based on such Upper-Tier Investor’s relative direct or indirect percentage interests in the equity of its Legacy Stockholder) (in each case, under and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, as applicable, and the applicable Upper-Tier Agreements) (the “Section 2.01 Principle”). Accordingly, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties agree and acknowledge that:

(i) with respect to the rights, interests and entitlements of any such Legacy Stockholder hereunder and thereunder (including those rights, interests and entitlements set forth in Articles III, IV, V and VI) (collectively, the “Applicable Rights”), such Legacy Stockholder may exercise, enforce or seek the benefit of any Applicable Rights of such Legacy Stockholder hereunder with respect to one or more of its Upper-Tier Investors pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle (and, similarly, with respect to the Applicable Rights of a Major Stockholder hereunder, the applicable Co-Investment Stockholder may exercise, enforce or seek the benefit of any such Applicable Rights with respect to one or more of its Major Upper-Tier Co-Investors pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle);

(ii) with respect to the obligations and liabilities imposed on any such Legacy Stockholder hereunder and thereunder (including those obligations and liabilities set forth in Articles VI and VII) (collectively, the “Applicable Obligations”), such Legacy Stockholder is expected to take any and all actions with respect to one or more of its Upper-Tier Investors reasonably necessary to allow such Legacy Stockholder to comply with or satisfy such Applicable Obligations, in each case, pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle (and, similarly, with respect to the Applicable Obligations imposed on a Major Stockholder hereunder, the applicable Co-Investment Stockholder is expected to take any and all actions with respect to one or more of its Major Upper-Tier Co-Investors reasonably necessary to allow such Co-Investment Stockholder to comply with or to satisfy such Applicable Obligations, in each case, pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle);

(iii) with respect to any other agreements, covenants, acknowledgements or understandings of or with respect to any such Legacy Stockholder hereunder and thereunder (collectively, “Applicable Understandings”) such Legacy Stockholder may recognize and give effect to any such Applicable Understanding with respect to one or more of its Upper-Tier Investors pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle (and, similarly, with respect to any other Applicable Understandings of or with respect to a Major Stockholder hereunder, the applicable Co-Investment Stockholder may recognize and give effect to any such Applicable Understanding with respect to one or more of its Major Upper-Tier Co-Investors pursuant to the Section 2.01 Principle); and

(iv) whenever any such Legacy Stockholder has the right to vote on, consent to, approve or has been afforded any other similar rights with respect to any matter, such Legacy Stockholder’s vote, consent, approval or exercise of such other similar right shall be cast or exercised on a “look through” basis, as though each of its Upper-Tier Investors was exercising such vote, consent, approval or similar right directly in accordance with the Section 2.01 Principle based on each such Upper-Tier Investor’s instructions to the Legacy Stockholder through any additional vehicle with respect to such vote, consent, approval or other similar right.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Upper-Tier Investor, the Upper-Tier Agreements to which it is a party contains terms and provisions complementary to this Section 2.01 (but, in each case, solely with respect to those Class A Shares or Class B Shares (as applicable) that such Upper-Tier Investor would have held directly (based on such Upper-Tier Investor’s relative direct or indirect percentage interests in the equity of its Stockholder) had such Upper-Tier Investor been a direct Stockholder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Section 2.01 Principle is not intended to, and shall not be implemented or interpreted by the Legacy Stockholders or the Company in such a manner as to, cause an Upper-Tier Investor or any additional vehicle to be treated as owning Shares or an interest in any additional vehicle (except, in all cases, an interest that is legally owned by the Upper-Tier Investor or the additional vehicle directly or through entities that are disregarded as separate from their owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes), in all cases for any purpose (including for U.S. federal income tax purposes).

ARTICLE III
JOINDER; BOOKS AND RECORDS

SECTION 3.01. Joinder.

(a) The name, address, class and number of Shares held of record of each Legacy Stockholder, and the respective Pro Rata Portion of each Legacy Stockholder, in each case as of the date hereof, are set forth on Schedule A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, when any Shares are issued, repurchased, redeemed or Transferred in accordance with this Agreement to or from any Stockholder that is or will become a party to this Agreement, the Company shall promptly thereafter amend Schedule A to reflect such issuance, repurchase, redemption or Transfer, the joining of the recipient of such Shares as a substitute Party and the resulting Pro Rata Portion of each Legacy Stockholder and such newly joined Party in its capacity as a Legacy Stockholder and no consent of any Party shall be required in connection with any such amendment.

(b) No Transferee of any Shares initially held by any Legacy Stockholder shall be deemed to be a Party or acquire any rights hereunder, unless (i) such Shares are Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (including Article VI) and with respect to the Class B Shares, in accordance with the MIP Agreement and the applicable Award Agreement and (ii) such Transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Company such instruments as the Company deems necessary or desirable, in its reasonable discretion, to effectuate such Transfer and to confirm the agreement of such Transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including an Addendum Agreement. Upon complying with the immediately preceding sentence, without the need for any further action of any Person, such Transferee or recipient shall be deemed a Party and a Legacy Stockholder. Such Transferee shall enjoy the same rights, and be subject to the same obligations, as the Transferor; provided, that such Transferor shall not be relieved of any obligation or liability hereunder arising prior to the consummation of such Transfer but shall be relieved of all future obligations with respect to the Shares so Transferred. As promptly as practicable after the joinder of such Transferee as a Party, the books and records of the Company shall be changed to reflect such joinder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, including Section 8.13, in the event of any joinder of a Transferee pursuant to this Section 3.01(b), this Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect such joinder, and any formal amendment of this Agreement (including Schedule A attached hereto) in connection therewith shall only require execution by the Company and such newly joined Party to be effective. The provisions of this Section 3.01 shall apply to any Person that is issued Shares in accordance with the terms hereof (including EEH II pursuant to Section 4.02(b)) mutatis mutandis.

(c) If a Legacy Stockholder shall Transfer all (but not less than all) its Shares, such Legacy Stockholder shall thereupon cease to be a Legacy Stockholder and a Party and shall not otherwise have any ongoing rights, or otherwise be entitled to any benefits, under this Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding

the foregoing, such Legacy Stockholder shall continue to be bound by the provisions of Section 8.14.

SECTION 3.02. Accounting Information.

(a) Accounting Method. For financial reporting purposes, the books and records of the Company shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting and in accordance with GAAP, in each case, applied in a consistent manner and such books and records shall reflect all Company transactions.

(b) Financial Reports. The books and records of the Company shall be audited as of the end of each Fiscal Year by a “Big Four” accounting firm (an “Accounting Firm”) selected by the Board or the audit committee thereof. The Company shall provide, or otherwise make available, to each Legacy Class A Stockholder (other than EMI and any Legacy Class A Stockholder who notifies the Company in writing that it no longer wishes to receive the following information): (i) on an annual basis, within ninety (90) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, an audited consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries, audited by the Accounting Firm; (ii) on a quarterly basis, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter, an unaudited quarterly and year-to-date consolidated balance sheet and related statement of operation and statement of cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries; (iii) within fifteen (15) Business Days after each calendar month beginning on the first day of the first calendar month after the Closing Date, a monthly report of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and (iv) on an annual basis, within thirty (30) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Annual Budget. Such annual, quarterly and monthly financial information referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of notes in the case of such quarterly and monthly financial information.

SECTION 3.03. Annual Budget. At least thirty (30) days prior to the end of each Fiscal Year, the Company shall deliver to the Board drafts of the current multi-year business plan (or an update of a prior business plan, as applicable) for the Company and its Subsidiaries and an operating budget (together, the “Annual Budget”) for the Company and its Subsidiaries covering the next succeeding Fiscal Year. Such Annual Budget shall be subject to the approval of the Board.

SECTION 3.04. Books and Records. The Company shall keep full and accurate books of account and other records of the Company and its Subsidiaries at its principal place of business. During regular business hours, upon reasonable notice and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Apollo Stockholder and each Principal Stockholder and Major Stockholder (a) shall have access to inspect such books and records and the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries for purposes reasonably related to its ownership of Class A Shares or other Equity Securities of the Company, and (b) upon reasonable request, shall be afforded the opportunity to discuss the affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries with members of management of the Company. Any request for access to

the books, records, properties and members of management of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as applicable) pursuant to Section 220 of the DGCL shall be granted during regular business hours, upon reasonable notice and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and subject to such other reasonable restrictions permitted by Section 220 of the DGCL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and for the avoidance of doubt, none of EMI, EMH, or any Upper-Tier Management Investor shall have the right to make, whether directly or indirectly (through EMI or EEH in the case of any Upper-Tier Management Investor), any request of such type or nature as described in this Section 3.04 (other than such requests as are permitted pursuant to Section 220 of the DGCL, which requests shall be subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence). It is acknowledged, understood and agreed that the information contained on Schedule A, each as amended from time to time, other than the names and addresses of the Legacy Stockholders and information on the applicable Schedule that is opposite the name of the requesting Person, shall not be provided to EMI, the EMI Members, the Legacy Class B Stockholders or the EEH Members, other than the CEO and the chief financial officer of the Company, for the purpose of preserving privacy with respect to Share ownership, unless the Board determines otherwise.

ARTICLE IV
SHARES; PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

SECTION 4.01. Class A Shares. The number of Class A Shares issued to Legacy Class A Stockholders shall be listed on Schedule A, which may be amended from time to time by the Company as required to reflect changes in the number of Class A Shares held by the Legacy Class A Stockholders (including as a result of any repurchase of such Class A Shares pursuant to Section 6.07) and to reflect the addition of Legacy Stockholders, or cessation of status as such, or any adjustments for any Class A Share split, Class A Share dividend, recapitalization, recombination, reclassification, or other similar transaction with respect to Class A Shares occurring after the date hereof, and as of the date hereof, the Company has issued to each Legacy Class A Stockholder the number of Class A Shares set forth opposite such Legacy Class A Stockholder’s name on Schedule A under the heading “Number of Class A Shares Held of Record.” EMI covenants and agrees, to the extent of its rights under the EMI Agreement, to maintain and enforce the EMI Agreement.

SECTION 4.02. Class B Shares.

(a) General. The number of Class B Shares issued shall be listed on Schedule A, which may be amended from time to time by the Company as required to reflect repurchases and forfeitures of Class B Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the Certificate of Incorporation or the issuance of Class B Shares to EEH II pursuant to Section 4.02(b) or to reflect adjustments for any Class B Share split, Class B Share dividend, recapitalization, recombination, reclassification, or other similar transaction with respect to Class B Shares occurring after the date hereof. EEH hereby covenants and agrees, to the extent of its rights under the EEH Agreement, to maintain and enforce the EEH Agreement.

(b) Issuances by the Company; Incentive Awards. Other than in connection with any adjustment to Class B Shares in connection with a Class B Share split, Class B Share dividend, recapitalization, or the like with respect to Class B Shares occurring after the date hereof, the Company shall not issue any Class B Shares (in whole or fractional numbers) after the date hereof; provided, that promptly following the Effective Date the Company, without further action of the Board, shall issue 70,000 Class B Shares to EEH II and, upon such issuance, EEH II shall execute and deliver an Addendum Agreement to the Company and the Company shall amend Schedule A to reflect such issuance in accordance with Section 3.01. For the avoidance of doubt, the remaining authorized but unissued Class B units of the LLC have been cancelled in connection with the Restructuring and shall not be available for further issuance by the Company as the successor in interest to the LLC. The Parties agree that the Company shall cause EEH II to grant incentive awards in the aggregate with respect to the full 70,000 Class B Shares issued to EEH II as aforesaid to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries that would entitle such grantees to receive proceeds in respect of 100% of the Class B Shares held by EEH II corresponding to such incentive awards (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Class A Shares received by EEH II upon a Class B Exchange) and such proceeds shall in all events be distributed to the grantees within six (6) months of EEH II’s receipt thereof. The terms and conditions of such incentive awards, the making of such grants and the allocation among such grantees (including the number and amount of such incentive awards), shall (i) to the extent such grantees are non-officer employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, be approved by the CEO in his discretion, and (ii) to the extent such grantees are officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries, be approved by the compensation committee of the Board in its discretion; provided, that the CEO may recommend officer grantees to the compensation committee of the Board for its consideration. It is the Company’s intention that if the Board otherwise determines to issue incentive awards to Upper-Tier Management Investors or other employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries, then the Board shall have the authority to implement an equity-based incentive compensation plan under which the Company shall reserve a number of Class A Shares for issuance to such Upper-Tier Management Investors or other employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries in accordance with such plan.

(c) Distributions of Class B Shares upon a Capital Transaction or Class B Exchange; Treatment of Management Loans; Proceeds from a Repurchase of Class B Shares.

(i) Immediately prior to the consummation of a Threshold Capital Transaction or a Class B Exchange, EEH shall distribute to each EEH Member his or her Pro Rata Portion of (A) in the case of a Threshold Capital Transaction, the Class B Shares held by EEH, or (B) in the case of a Class B Exchange, the Class B Exchange Amount. Upon the consummation of such Threshold Capital Transaction or Class B Exchange, as applicable, each EEH Member shall be entitled to receive its Pro Rata Portion of any Capital Proceeds or Class A Shares and/or cash in lieu of fractional Class A Shares, as applicable, distributable or issuable in respect of such Class B Shares to the extent set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation. EEH shall cause each EEH Member to comply with and be bound by any representations, warranties, covenants and

agreements (including indemnification obligations) on a Pro Rata basis, to the extent agreed by EEH in any documentation, delivered to the Company in connection with a Class B Exchange pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation in accordance with the Section 2.01 Principle.

(ii) If the Company makes or has made a loan to any to Upper-Tier Management Investor to fund all or any portion of such Upper-Tier Management Investor’s purchase of EMI Units (each such loan, inclusive of both the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, a “Management Loan”), then until such time as all outstanding amounts under such Management Loan have been repaid in full, including by the reductions described in this Section 4.02(c)(ii), (A) each distribution of Capital Proceeds otherwise payable to EMI shall be reduced by an amount equal to (x) the amount of such distribution, multiplied by (y) the EMI Proportionate Share attributable to such Upper-Tier Management Investor and (B) if such Upper-Tier Management Investor is also an EEH Member, each distribution of Capital Proceeds or Class B Consideration otherwise payable to EEH, shall be reduced by an amount corresponding to the amount that would be distributable by EEH to such EEH Member in respect of such Upper-Tier Management Investor’s EEH Units if the amount payable by the Company to EEH (but for this clause (2)) were distributed to EEH pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and immediately thereafter distributed by EEH to the EEH Members pursuant to the EEH Agreement, and the amounts specified in clauses (A) and (B), if any, shall be applied to the repayment of any such Management Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all accounting and other purposes under this Agreement, the amounts of (1) any such reduction pursuant to clause (A) of this Section 4.02(c)(ii) of a distribution otherwise payable to EMI pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deemed to have been distributed to EMI (and immediately thereafter distributed by EMI to such Upper-Tier Management Investor pursuant to the EMI Agreement and then paid by such Upper-Tier Management Investor to the Company) and (2) any such reduction pursuant to clause (B) of this Section 4.02(c)(ii) of a distribution otherwise payable to EEH pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deemed to have been distributed to EEH (and immediately thereafter distributed by EEH to such Upper-Tier Management Investor pursuant to the EEH Agreement and then paid by such Upper-Tier Management Investor to the Company).

(iii) Any amount paid (or reduced upon application of Section 4.02(c)(ii)) to EEH in connection with any repurchase of Class B Units pursuant to Section 6.07 shall be treated as an advance distribution of, and shall reduce by like amount, the next amounts otherwise distributable to the Class B Stockholders pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if any Class B Shares are exchanged pursuant to a Class B Exchange, then the amount of any Capital Proceeds to be distributed to the Class B Stockholders pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation following such Class B Exchange (provided, that such related Capital Transaction is a Threshold Capital Transaction or that a Threshold Capital Transaction has been previously consummated) shall be reduced by any amount paid (or reduced upon application of Section 4.02(d)(ii)) to EEH in connection with any repurchase of Class B Shares pursuant to Section 6.07. In addition, in connection with any Class B Exchange, the calculations of the number of Class A Shares issued to EEH in

connection with any Class B Exchange shall take into account any amounts paid (or reduced upon application of Section 4.02(c)(ii)) to EEH in any repurchase of Class B Shares pursuant to Section 6.07 and such number of Class A Shares issued shall be reduced accordingly.

(d) Acceleration of Vesting of Class B Shares in a Class B Exchange; Redemption of Class A Shares.

(i) If the number of Class B Shares to be exchanged by the Company in connection with a Class B Exchange exceeds the number of Vested Class B Shares held by EEH, then, notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in the MIP Agreement, a number of Unvested Class B Shares equal to such excess shall vest as of immediately prior to such Class B Exchange and be exchanged in such Class B Exchange up to the Class B Exchange Amount, with any such Class B Shares vesting earlier than as provided in the MIP Agreement to be those out of the next successive group or groups of Class B Shares scheduled to vest under the MIP Agreement.

(ii) Solely for purposes of the provisions relating to a Class B Exchange under the Certificate of Incorporation and any related defined terms used therein, a “Sale” shall be deemed to include any repurchase or redemption of Class A Shares by the Company from the Specified Stockholders. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, if such repurchase or redemption of Class A Shares occurs prior to the first Sale, then such repurchase or redemption of Class A Shares shall be deemed to be the first Sale solely for the purposes of the provisions relating to a Class B Exchange under the Certificate of Incorporation and any related defined terms used therein.

(e) Recording of Secondary Sales for Legacy Class A Stockholders; Class B Exchange Expenses. The Legacy Class A Stockholders shall promptly notify the Company of any and all Sales or Subsequent Sales, as applicable, for purposes of determining whether a Class B Exchange is to be consummated pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation. Upon the consummation of a Class B Exchange, the Class B Exchange Amount shall be cancelled by the Company and such cancelled Class B Shares shall not be reissued at any time. The Company shall ensure that following an IPO, Class A Shares issued to the Class B Stockholders pursuant to a Class B Exchange shall be immediately freely transferable under federal securities laws by the Class B Stockholders under a resale registration statement to be filed as soon as reasonably practicable following such IPO and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure such registration statement is maintained effective at all times thereafter pursuant to applicable federal securities laws. The Company shall bear all of the costs and expenses associated with a Class B Exchange, including the costs and expenses incurred in connection with filing and maintaining a resale registration statement and any underwriting discounts and commissions and brokerage commissions payable by the Class B Stockholders in connection with sales of Class A Shares received by the Class B Stockholders pursuant to a Class B Exchange. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights and benefits applicable to the Class B Stockholders provided pursuant to the foregoing

provisions of this Section 4.02 shall be subject to the Section 2.01 Principle (and, thereby, made available to the EEH Members).

SECTION 4.03. Certificates. Issued and outstanding Shares held by the Legacy Stockholders shall be uncertificated; provided, that the Board may expressly elect to evidence Shares by certificates and if the Board so elects, in addition to any other legend which the Company may deem advisable under the Securities Act, all certificates representing Shares issued to Legacy Stockholders shall be endorsed as follows:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT OR LAWS. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF AUGUST 30, 2013, BY AND AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES AND THE OTHER PARTIES NAMED THEREIN. THE TERMS OF SUCH STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT INCLUDE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER.”

SECTION 4.04. Preemptive Rights.

(a) Subject to Section 4.04(e), until the earlier of a Qualified Offering and a Change of Control, if the Company proposes to issue any additional Shares or other Equity Securities or Debt Securities, or any rights to subscribe for, or option to purchase, or otherwise acquire, any of the foregoing (collectively, “Additional Securities”), to any Person(s) (the “Proposed Offeree(s)”) or enter into any contract relating to the issuance of such Additional Securities through a private issuance or private placement, then each Preemptive Stockholder shall have the right to purchase (“Preemptive Right”), on the same terms and at the same purchase price per share or other unit of such Additional Securities offered to the Proposed Offeree(s), that number of Additional Securities so that such Preemptive Stockholder would, in the aggregate, after the issuance of all such Additional Securities, hold a Pro Rata Portion of such Additional Securities in the same proportion to each other Preemptive Stockholder’s Pro Rata Portion in such Additional Securities as their respective Pro Rata Portions immediately prior to such issuance.

(b) In connection with any Preemptive Right, the Company shall, by written notice (the “Preemptive Notice”), provide an offer to sell to each Preemptive Stockholder that number of Additional Securities in accordance with Section 4.04(a), which Preemptive Notice shall include the applicable purchase price per share or other unit, aggregate amount of Additional Securities offered, number or amount of Additional Securities offered to such Preemptive Stockholder based on the respective Pro Rata Portions of the Preemptive Stockholders immediately prior to such issuance, name of Proposed Offeree(s) (if then known), proposed closing date, place and time for the issuance thereof (which shall be no less than thirty (30) days from the date of such notice), and any other material terms and conditions of the offer. Within fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the Preemptive Notice, any Preemptive Stockholder wishing to exercise its Preemptive Right concerning such Additional Securities shall deliver notice to the Company setting forth the number of Additional Securities which such Preemptive Stockholder commits to purchase (which may be for all or any portion of such Additional Securities offered to such Preemptive Stockholder in the Preemptive Notice). Each Preemptive Stockholder shall have the additional right (the “Additional Purchase Right”) to offer in its notice of exercise to purchase any or all of the Additional Securities not accepted for purchase by any other Preemptive Stockholder, in which event such Additional Securities not accepted by any other Preemptive Stockholder shall be deemed to have been offered to and accepted by the Preemptive Stockholders exercising such Additional Purchase Right in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Portions immediately prior to such issuance on the same terms and at the same price per share or other unit as those specified in the Preemptive Notice, but in no event shall any Preemptive Stockholder exercising its Additional Purchase Right be allocated a number of Additional Securities in excess of the maximum number such Preemptive Stockholder has offered to purchase in its notice of exercise. Each Preemptive Stockholder so exercising its right under this Section 4.04 shall be entitled and obligated to purchase that number of Additional Securities specified in such Preemptive Stockholder’s notice on the terms and conditions set forth in the Preemptive Notice. Any Additional Securities not accepted for purchase by the Preemptive Stockholders pursuant to this Section 4.04 shall be offered to the Proposed Offeree on the same terms and price per share or other unit as set forth in the Preemptive Notice; provided, however, if such Proposed Offeree does not consummate the purchase of such Additional Securities within ninety (90) days following delivery of the Preemptive Notice, any subsequent proposed issuance of Additional Securities shall once again be subject to the terms of this Section 4.04.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.03(b), no issuance of Additional Securities by the Company to any Preemptive Stockholder pursuant to the exercise by such Preemptive Stockholder of its Preemptive Rights shall require Disinterested Director Approval if all of the other Preemptive Stockholders are entitled to Preemptive Rights in connection with such issuance.

(d) Notwithstanding the requirements of this Section 4.04, the Company may proceed with any issuance of Additional Securities to a Proposed Offeree (other than any Legacy Stockholder) that would otherwise be subject to this Section 4.04 prior to having complied with the provisions of this Section 4.04 (such issuance, a “Third-Party Issuance”); provided, that the Company shall:

(i) provide to each Preemptive Stockholder prompt notice of such Third-Party Issuance;

(ii) within a reasonable period of time (but in any event not more than five (5) Business Days) following the Third-Party Issuance, offer to issue to each Preemptive Stockholder such number or amount of Additional Securities of the type issued in the Third-Party Issuance as may be requested by such Preemptive Stockholder (not to exceed the number or amount of such Additional Securities which is sufficient for such Preemptive Stockholder to hold, after the issuance of all such Additional Securities, its Pro Rata Portion of such Additional Securities as its Pro Rata Portion immediately prior to the Third-Party Issuance), as it would have had if the Company had served a Preemptive Notice pursuant to, and such Preemptive Stockholder had exercised its rights in full under Section 4.04(a) and Section 4.04(b) prior to the Third-Party Issuance, on the same terms and conditions (including price) with respect to such Additional Securities as the Proposed Offerees received in the Third-Party Issuance;

(iii) keep such offer open for a period of fifteen (15) days, during which period, each such Preemptive Stockholder may accept such offer by sending an irrevocable written acceptance to the Company committing to purchase in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.04(b), an amount of such Additional Securities (not to exceed the amount specified in the offer made pursuant to Section 4.04(d)(ii)); and

provided, further, that (A) for all purposes under this Agreement, any issuance of Additional Securities to a Preemptive Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4.04(d) shall be deemed to have occurred on the date of the consummation of the applicable Third-Party Issuance and (B) during the period commencing on the consummation of the applicable Third-Party Issuance and ending on the earlier of (x) the consummation of the issuance of Additional Securities to a Preemptive Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4.04(d) and (y) the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period specified in clause (iii) above, the Additional Securities issued to the Proposed Offeree pursuant to this Section 4.04(d) shall not be taken into account in calculating the Pro Rata Portion of any Stockholder for any purposes under this Agreement.

(e) The provisions of this Section 4.04 shall not apply to issuances of Additional Securities by the Company as follows:

(i) any issuance of Additional Securities upon the exchange, exercise or conversion of any units, options, warrants, debentures or other convertible securities in accordance with their terms that are outstanding on the date hereof or issued after the date hereof in a transaction that complies with the provisions of this Section 4.04;

(ii) any issuance of Equity Securities of the Company, including options, warrants or convertible securities, to officers, employees, managers or consultants of the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with such Person’s employment or consulting arrangements with the Company or its Subsidiaries;

(iii) any issuance of Equity Securities of the Company, including options, warrants or convertible securities, in each case, to the extent approved by a Disinterested Director Approval, in connection with (A) any direct or indirect merger, consolidation, business combination or other acquisition transaction involving the Company or its Subsidiaries (whether through merger, recapitalization, acquisition of stock or assets or otherwise) or (B) any joint venture or strategic partnership entered into primarily for purposes other than raising capital (as determined by the Board in its sole discretion);

(iv) any issuance of Additional Securities in connection with any Share split, Share dividend or similar distribution or recapitalization;

(v) any issuance of Equity Securities of the Company, including options, warrants or convertible securities, pursuant to a registered public offering or in connection with an IPO;

(vi) any issuance of Class A Shares in exchange for Class B Shares; or

(vii) the issuance of Class B Shares to EEH II pursuant to Section 4.02(b).

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

SECTION 5.01. Board Composition.

(a) The Board shall, prior to the Registration Statement Effective Date, be comprised of ten (10) directors (each such director of the Board, a “Director”), as follows: (i) five (5) Directors shall be designated by the Apollo Stockholder (each, an “Apollo Director”); (ii) two (2) Directors shall be designated by the Riverstone Stockholder (each, a “Riverstone Director”); (iii) one (1) Director shall be designated by the KNOC Stockholder (the “KNOC Director”), (iv) one (1) Director shall be designated by the Access Stockholder (the “Access Director”) and (v) one (1) Director shall be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”).

Following such amendment and restatement of the Company Governing Documents and subject to this Agreement and Applicable Governance Rules, the Board shall comprise of thirteen (13) Directors and shall be divided into three classes as follows:

(i) Class I shall consist of (A) two (2) Apollo Directors, (B) one (1) Riverstone Director, and (C) one (1) Independent Director designated by the Apollo Stockholder, each of whom shall serve an initial one (1)-year term (each, a “Class I Director”);

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in Section 5.01(a) and Section 5.01(b), the right of certain Stockholders, as specified in Section 5.01(a) and Section 5.01(b), to designate Directors to the Board shall be subject to the following:

(i) (A) If the Apollo Stockholder ceases to hold at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, but continues to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, the Apollo Stockholder shall be entitled to designate four (4) Directors and, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, two (2) Independent Directors to the Board; (B) if the Apollo Stockholder ceases to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, but continues to hold at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, the Apollo Stockholder shall be entitled to designate two (2) Directors and, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, one (1) Independent Director to the Board; (C) if the Apollo Stockholder ceases to hold at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, but continues to hold at least ten percent (10%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, the Apollo Stockholder shall be entitled to designate one (1) Director and, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, no Independent Directors to the Board; and (D) if the Apollo Stockholder ceases to hold at least ten percent (10%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, the Apollo Stockholder shall not be entitled to designate any Directors to the Board or to be represented on any Committee.

(ii) (A) If a Principal Stockholder ceases to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, but continues to hold at least twenty percent (20%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date

hereof, such Principal Stockholder shall not be entitled to designate any Director to the Board or be represented on any Committee; provided, however, that such Principal Stockholder shall be entitled to designate one (1) Board Observer (or, solely in the case of the Riverstone Stockholder, two (2) Board Observers) and, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, the Riverstone Stockholder shall be entitled to designate one (1) Independent Director to the Board; and (B) if such Principal Stockholder ceases to hold at least twenty percent (20%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, such Principal Stockholder shall not be entitled to designate a Board Observer and, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, with respect to the Riverstone Stockholder, it shall not be entitled to designate an Independent Director to the Board.

(d) The Apollo Stockholder shall have the right to appoint any Director as the Chairman of the Board.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the right to designate Directors or Board Observers to the Board pursuant to this Section 5.01 or Section 5.04, as applicable (the “Board Designation Rights”), is personal to each Legacy Class A Stockholder to whom such rights have been granted, and such rights shall not be transferred in connection with the Transfer of any Class A Shares held by such Legacy Class A Stockholder or otherwise, except in connection with a Permitted Transfer.

(f) The names of each Director and the Legacy Class A Stockholder who designated such Director shall be set forth on Schedule B and the Company may amend Schedule B from time to time without the consent of the Board or any Legacy Stockholder to reflect any resignation, retirement, removal, replacement or designation of any Director that has been effected pursuant to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.02. Removal and Replacement of Directors.

(a) Each Director will serve on the Board for such term as set forth in the Company Governing Documents. A Director that is appointed by the Apollo Stockholder or by a Principal Stockholder may be removed and replaced at any time and for any reason (or no reason) only at the direction and upon the approval of the Apollo Stockholder or the Principal Stockholder that designated such Director to the Board. Any Director designated by the Apollo Stockholder or a Principal Stockholder who is no longer entitled to designate such Director pursuant to Section 5.01(c) may be removed upon the approval of a majority of the other Directors; provided, that such majority shall exclude any other Director designated by the Apollo Stockholder or such Principal Stockholder, as the case may be, to the extent that the Apollo Stockholder or such Principal Stockholder, as the case may be, had previously designated the Director who is being removed. The Apollo Stockholder or such Principal Stockholder, as the case may be, shall cooperate with the other Directors and the Company in removing such Director, including by causing such Director to resign from his seat on the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.02, in the event that the Apollo Stockholder or any Principal Stockholder loses its right to designate a Director pursuant to Section 5.01(c), (i) if such Legacy Class A Stockholder is still entitled to designate one (1) or more Directors to the Board, such Legacy Class A Stockholder may choose, in its

sole discretion, which of its designated Directors shall resign from the Board and (ii) if such Legacy Class A Stockholder loses such Board Designation Right following the Registration Statement Effective Time, such resigning Director shall serve out the remainder of his or her term prior to resigning from the Board.

(b) Any vacancy on the Board (whether caused by the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of such Director) shall be filled by a majority vote of the Directors then in office; provided, that for so long as the Legacy Class A Stockholders hold more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Class A Shares, in the event that such vacancy is with respect to a Director that the Apollo Stockholder, a Principal Stockholder or a Majority-in-Interest is entitled to designate to the Board pursuant to this Article V, then each of the Apollo Stockholder, the Principal Stockholders and the Majority-in-Interest shall cause their respective designated Directors then in office to vote in favor of the replacement Director so designated by the Apollo Stockholder, such Principal Stockholder or the Majority-in-Interest (as the case may be). If the Apollo Stockholder or any Principal Stockholder loses its Board Designation Rights with respect to any Board seat and the Legacy Class A Stockholders hold more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Class A Shares, then any vacancy created by the loss of such Board Designation Right shall be filled by a vote of the Majority-in-Interest (each Director designated by such Majority-in-Interest a “Replacement Director”); provided, that (i) each Replacement Director shall be an Independent Director and (ii) any potential Replacement Director’s fees or similar compensation paid to such Replacement Director shall be taken into account in determining whether such person would qualify as an Independent Director. If the Legacy Class A Stockholders hold more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Class A Shares, a Majority-in-Interest shall have the right to designate a Replacement Director to the Board in the event of the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of a Replacement Director. The Legacy Class A Stockholders hereby covenant and agree to use good faith efforts to fill any vacancy on the Board as promptly as reasonably practicable.

SECTION 5.03. Negative Control Rights.

(a) For so long as the Legacy Class A Stockholders hold twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the outstanding Class A Shares and either the Apollo Stockholder or the Riverstone Stockholder is entitled to designate at least one (1) Director pursuant to this Agreement (the “Negative Control Condition”), then the following actions shall require the approval of a majority of all of the Directors then in office, which majority shall include at least one (1) Director designated by the Apollo Stockholder, and at least one (1) Director designated by a Principal Stockholder or one (1) Replacement Director, in each case, for so long as such Legacy Class A Stockholder or the Majority-in-Interest (as applicable) is entitled to designate at least one (1) Director pursuant to this Agreement (such Board approval, a “Special Board Approval”):

(i) any increase or decrease in the size or composition of (A) the Board or (B) prior to the Registration Statement Effective Date, the audit or compensation committees of the Board;

(vii) the incurrence of an aggregate amount of Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (other than (A) Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof or any refinancing thereof up to the same maximum principal amount of such Indebtedness outstanding as of the date hereof or (B) capital leases contemplated by an Annual Budget) in excess of $250,000,000 or that would result in a Leverage Ratio of 2.5 or greater;

(viii) hiring or firing the CEO, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or any other member of senior management of the Company and its Subsidiaries, or approving the compensation arrangements of the CEO, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or any other member of senior management of the Company and its Subsidiaries (subject to the prior approval of the compensation committee of the Board); provided, that any such approval shall be given in accordance with all Applicable Governance Rules and shall be subject to compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code and the related Treasury Regulations and Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, to the extent that the Board elects to satisfy Section 162(m)’s outside directors requirements or Rule 16b-3’s non-employee directors requirements;

(ix) any payment or declaration of any dividend or other distribution on any Shares or other Equity Securities of the Company or entering into a recapitalization transaction the primary purpose of which is to pay a dividend, other than intra-company dividends among the Company and its Subsidiaries;

(b) The consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any Legacy Stockholder, Director or Affiliate of any Legacy Stockholder or Director (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Upper-Tier Investor), on the other hand, other than (i) a transaction or series of related transactions that is (A) consummated in the

ordinary course of business of the Company or such Subsidiary, (B) on arm’s length terms and (C) de minimis in nature (it being understood that any transaction or series of related transactions that involves goods, services, property or other consideration valued in excess of $10,000 shall not be deemed to be de minimis), (ii) any transaction contemplated by the Transaction Fee Agreement, the Management Fee Agreement, any Management Agreement or any successor agreement thereto (excluding any transactions contemplated by material amendments to the foregoing agreements), and (iii) an acquisition of Additional Securities by a Preemptive Stockholder pursuant to an exercise of its Preemptive Rights pursuant to Section 4.04; provided, that all of the other Preemptive Stockholders are entitled to Preemptive Rights with respect to such acquisition (each such transaction, a “Related Party Transaction”), shall in each case require the approval of a majority of the Directors, other than those Directors that are (or whose Affiliates are) party to such Related Party Transaction or have been designated by the Legacy Class A Stockholders that are party, or whose Affiliates are party to, such Related Party Transaction (such approval, a “Disinterested Director Approval”).

SECTION 5.04. Board Observers.

(a) Each Major Stockholder shall be entitled to designate one (1) Board Observer; provided, that if such Major Stockholder ceases to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, it shall no longer be entitled to designate a Board Observer. EMI shall be entitled to designate two (2) employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries to serve as Board Observers; provided, that (A) if EMI ceases to hold one-hundred percent (100%), but continues to hold at least fifty percent (50%), of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, EMI shall be entitled to designate one (1) employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries to serve as a Board Observer, and (B) if EMI ceases to hold fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares that it held as of the date hereof, it shall no longer be entitled to designate any Board Observers.

(b) Each Board observer that any Legacy Class A Stockholder is entitled to designate pursuant to this Agreement (each, a “Board Observer”) shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, at each such Board Observer’s discretion) each meeting of the Board as an observer (and not as a Director) and shall not have the right to vote at any such meeting or act on behalf of the Board; provided, that such Board Observer may be excluded from all or any portion of any such meeting to the extent that the Board determines in good faith and upon the advice of counsel to the Company that such exclusion is required to preserve the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel, or to the extent the respective interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and those of the Legacy Class A Stockholder that such Board Observer represents (or its Affiliates or Upper-Tier Investors), as to the matter(s) to be discussed or actions to be taken during such portion of such meeting, conflict or could be perceived to conflict (in the good faith judgment of the Board); provided, further, that any exclusion of a Board Observer from all or any portion of any meeting for any reason other than as set forth in the immediately preceding proviso shall require the prior written consent of the Legacy Class A Stockholder that is entitled to designate such Board Observer pursuant to this Article V (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

The Company will send, or cause to be sent, to each Board Observer the notice of the time and place of any such meeting in the same manner and at the same time as notice is sent to the Directors. The Company shall also provide, or cause to be provided, to each Board Observer copies of all notices, reports, minutes and other documents and materials at the same time and in the same manner as they are provided to the Directors; provided, that the failure to deliver or make available one or more of the items described in this sentence or the preceding sentence shall not affect the validity of any action taken by the Board.

SECTION 5.05. Committees.

(a) The Board may, by resolution, designate from among the Directors one or more committees (including an audit committee and a compensation committee) (each, a “Committee”), and delegate to such Committee such power, authority and responsibility as the Board determines is appropriate subject to the limitations set forth in the DGCL or in the establishment of the Committee; provided, however, that in no event shall the Board designate an executive committee or similar committee to exercise all or substantially all of the power of the Board when not in session; and provided, further, that each of the audit committee and the compensation committee shall comprise of four (4) Directors designated by the Apollo Stockholder so long as it is entitled to designate a Director to the Board and one (1) Director designated by each of the Principal Stockholders that is then entitled to designate a Director to the Board, except that following the Registration Statement Effective Date, the function and composition of the audit committee and the compensation committee shall comply with Applicable Governance Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Legacy Class A Stockholder has Board Designation Rights, each Committee (other than, prior to the Registration Statement Effective Date, the audit committee and the compensation committee, and following the Registration Statement Effective Date subject to Applicable Governance Rules) shall comprise of such number of members that are consistent with, and reflects, the Board Designation Rights of the Legacy Class A Stockholders set forth in Section 5.01, and for so long as the Negative Control Condition is satisfied (but subject to all Applicable Governance Rules), the Board shall only delegate such power, authority and responsibility to a Committee in a manner that is consistent with, and that does not circumvent, the requirements set forth in Section 5.03(a). For the avoidance of doubt, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, the ability of the Board to form a Committee shall be subject to the Applicable Governance Rules and the rights and responsibilities of any such Committee and its composition shall be subject to the Applicable Governance Rules and only to the extent they do not conflict with the Applicable Governance Rules, the provisions of this Agreement. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.05, Board Observers shall be entitled to attend (in person or telephonically, at each such Board Observer’s discretion) Committee meetings as observers (and not as Directors that are members of such Committee) and shall not have the right to vote at any such meeting or act on behalf of such Committee and such attendance shall otherwise be conducted in a manner that is consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement (including the provisos of Section 5.04(b)), except where such attendance would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Applicable Governance

Rules (unless the Legacy Class A Stockholder entitled to designate such Board Observer consents to such disclosure and such disclosure is in fact made).

(b) The provisions of this Article V (other than Sections 5.01, 5.02, and 5.04) relating to the Board and the Directors shall apply to each Committee and its members, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 5.06. Expense Reimbursement. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall reimburse each Legacy Stockholder for all reasonable, out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with: (a) conducting the activities of the Board and its Committees whether through a Director or a Board Observer, or (b) material transactions approved by the Board such as public offerings, private placements, financings, amendments to this Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement, recapitalizations and any transactions that would involve a Change of Control; provided, that (i) clause (a) shall not apply to EMI and EEH, and (ii) in the case of clause (b), such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed only if incurred in connection with the modification of such Legacy Stockholder’s rights and obligations solely as a Stockholder and as a result of the consummation of any such material transaction.

SECTION 5.07. Controlled Company.

(a) The Legacy Class A Stockholders agree and acknowledge that (i) by virtue of this Agreement, they will be acting as a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act following the Registration Statement Effective Date for the purpose of causing the Company to qualify as a “controlled company” under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, and (ii) by virtue of the fact that the Legacy Class A Stockholders will own more than fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Shares outstanding as of the Registration Statement Effective Date (and therefore more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Class A Shares outstanding as of the Registration Statement Effective Date), the Company will qualify as of the Registration Statement Effective Date as a “controlled company” within the meaning of Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

(b) For so long as the Company qualifies as a “controlled company” for purposes of the NYSE rules, the Company will elect to be a “controlled company” for purposes of the NYSE rules, and will disclose in its annual meeting proxy statement that it is a “controlled company” and the basis for that determination. If the Company ceases to qualify as a “controlled company” for purposes of the NYSE rules, the Legacy Class A Stockholders and the Company will take whatever action may be reasonably necessary, if any, to cause the Company to comply with the NYSE rules as then in effect.

SECTION 5.08. Additional Governance Matters. Without limiting the generality of Section 8.02, each of the Legacy Class A Stockholders agrees that it shall vote its Class A Shares and any Class A Shares that it holds proxies or powers of attorney with respect to or execute consents, as the case may be, and take all other necessary action (including nominating and electing Director designees, and calling an annual or

special meeting of Stockholders and causing their respective Director designees (if any) to vote for or approve or abstain from voting for or approving in respect of matters brought before the Board) in order to ensure that the composition of the Board is as set forth in this Article V and otherwise to give effect to the provisions of this Article V. The nominating committee of the Board shall only nominate the applicable Director designee designated by such Legacy Class A Stockholder or Majority-in-Interest entitled to designate such seat on the Board; provided, that such designee satisfies the applicable qualification requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article V, following the Registration Statement Effective Date, the rights of the Legacy Class A Stockholders under this Article V shall be subject to compliance with Applicable Governance Rules and, with respect to the compensation committee, subject to compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code and the related Treasury Regulations and Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the extent that the Board elects to satisfy Section 162(m)’s outside directors requirements or Rule 16b-3’s non-employee directors requirements.

SECTION 5.09. Amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws. Each of the Legacy Class A Stockholders and the Legacy Class B Stockholders agrees that it shall not vote its Shares in favor of any amendment, modification or waiver of, or otherwise act to amend, modify or waive, any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws in a manner that would disproportionately and materially adversely affect the interests of any Legacy Stockholder (in relation to any other Legacy Stockholder or class of Legacy Stockholders after taking into account or giving effect to the relative designations, preferences and/or special rights of the Shares held by such Legacy Stockholder or class of Legacy Stockholders immediately prior to such amendment, modification or waiver) without the written approval of such Legacy Stockholder.

(a) Until the earlier of (i) May 24, 2016 and (ii) the second (2nd) anniversary of the consummation of a Qualified Offering, except as provided in this Article VI (including Section 6.01(b) and Section 6.02) or with Disinterested Director Approval, no Legacy Stockholder shall Transfer all or any part of its Shares or any right pertaining thereto, including the right to vote or consent on any matter or to receive distributions or advances from the Company pursuant thereto. Any such Transfer, either directly or indirectly, or issuance of Equity Securities by a Legacy Stockholder or its Upper-Tier Investors, with the purpose or effect of circumventing (as determined in good faith by the Board) the foregoing restriction, shall not be in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, and shall be deemed a Transfer by such Legacy Stockholder of Shares in violation of this Agreement (and a breach of this Agreement by such Legacy Stockholder) and shall be null and void ab initio. The restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 6.01 shall in any event expire upon a Change of Control.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Legacy Class A Stockholder desires to effect a Transfer of Shares pursuant to clause (v) of the immediately preceding sentence, then prior to requesting Board approval of such Transfer, such requesting Legacy Class A Stockholder shall provide reasonable advance written notice to each of the other Legacy Class A Stockholders setting forth the number of Securities to be Transferred and if known, the price or the estimated price at which each such Security will be Transferred.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.01 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the last sentence of Section 6.01(a)), but subject to the provisions of Section 6.02: (i) until the earlier of (A) May 24, 2016 and (B) the second (2nd) anniversary of the consummation of a Qualified Offering, neither EMI nor its Upper-Tier Management Investors shall Transfer all or any part of its Class A Shares or EMI Units (as applicable) or any right pertaining thereto without the prior approval of the Board at any time, except as otherwise provided in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 6.01(b); and (ii) except for a Transfer of Class B Shares in connection with a Drag-Along Sale or pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, a Threshold Capital Transaction, a Class B Exchange, a dissolution of EEH in accordance with the EEH Agreement or a repurchase pursuant to Section 6.07, no Legacy Class B Stockholder nor its Upper-Tier Management Investors (as applicable) shall Transfer all or any part of its Class B Shares or EEH Units (as applicable) or any right pertaining thereto without the prior approval of the Board at any time.

(d) It shall be a condition precedent to any Transfer otherwise permitted or approved pursuant to this Article VI that:

(i) the Transferor shall have provided to the Company prior written notice of such Transfer at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of such Transfer;

(ii) the Transferee, in the case of a Transfer of Shares, shall agree in writing to be bound by this Agreement and shall have executed and delivered an Addendum Agreement and an addendum agreement to the Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached thereto;

(iii) the Transfer shall comply with all applicable federal, state or foreign laws, including securities laws;

(iv) the Transfer will not subject the Company to the registration or reporting requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;

(v) the Transfer shall not impose any material liability or reporting obligation on the Company or any Legacy Stockholder (other than the Transferor or the Transferee) in any jurisdiction, whether domestic or foreign, or result in the Company any Legacy Stockholder (other than the Transferor or Transferee) becoming subject to the jurisdiction of any court or governmental entity anywhere, other than the states, courts and governmental entities in which the Company or such Legacy Stockholder is then subject to such material liability, reporting obligation or jurisdiction;

(vi) the Transfer shall not cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute “plan assets” under United States Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the Code; and

(vii) upon the request of the Board, any Legacy Stockholder undertaking a Transfer of such Shares pursuant to this Article VI shall have delivered an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Board that such Transfer complies with the conditions set forth in this Section 6.01(d)(i) through (vi). The Board may also request officer certificates and representations and warranties from the Transferee and Transferor as to the matters set forth in this Section 6.01(d) and such other factual matters relating to the Transfer as the Board may reasonably request.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the consummation of any Transfer permitted pursuant to this Article VI of (i) EMI Corresponding Class A Shares attributable to any EMI Member or (ii) EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to any EEH Member, if such EMI Member or EEH Member, as applicable, owes any amount pursuant to any Management Loan, then until such time as all outstanding amounts under such Management Loan have been repaid in full, EMI or EEH, as applicable, shall direct payment of the applicable consideration received pursuant to such Transfer first to the repayment of such Management Loan, or, to the extent such consideration is received by EMI or EEH, such Legacy Stockholder shall pay such amounts to the Company as lender under such Management Loan.

SECTION 6.02. Certain Transfers Permitted at Any Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 6.01 (other than the provisions of clause (d) of Section 6.01, which shall be applicable in any event), any Transfer by any Legacy Stockholder of all or any portion of its respective Shares (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by the issuance of Equity Securities by such Legacy Stockholder or its Upper-Tier Investor), (a) in the case of a Legacy Class A Stockholder (other than EMI) to an Affiliate of such Legacy Stockholder (other than a “portfolio company” of a Transferring Stockholder or any entity controlled by such

“portfolio company”), (b) (I) solely with respect to Upper-Tier Management Investors of EMI, Transfers of EMI Units among such Upper-Tier Management Investors; provided, however, that no such Upper-Tier Management Investor shall Transfer to another Upper-Tier Management Investor more than twenty percent (20%) of the number of EMI Units issued by EMI to such Transferring Upper-Tier Management Investor; and (II) solely with respect to EMI and EEH, any Transfers of Class A Shares, EMI Units or EEH Units to (x) a spouse, lineal ancestor, lineal descendant, legally adopted child, brother or sister of such Upper-Tier Management Investor of EMI or EEH or (y) a lineal descendant or legally adopted child of a brother or sister of any Person described in the immediately preceding clause (x) (any Person described in the immediately preceding clause (x) or (y), a “Family Member”) or to a trust or other entity whose sole and exclusive beneficiaries are such EMI or such EEH Upper-Tier Management Investor and/or Family Members of such EMI or EEH Upper-Tier Management Investor; provided, that any such Transfer described in clause (I) or (II) of this Section 6.02 would not result in a violation of applicable law, including U.S. federal or state securities laws and such Transferee executes and delivers to the Company an Addendum Agreement, (c) in the case of a Legacy Class A Stockholder (other than EMI) any Transfer by an Upper-Tier Co-Investor of such Legacy Class A Stockholder that involves the issuance of Equity Securities of a Person that controls, directly or indirectly, such Upper-Tier Co-Investor, so long as such Person owns material assets in addition to its interest in such Upper-Tier Co-Investor and such Transfer or issuance is pursuant to a bona fide transaction and not with the purpose or effect of circumventing (as determined in good faith by the Board) the restrictions on Transfer set forth herein, or (d) in the case of the Apollo Stockholder, a Transfer by an investor holding direct or indirect passive non-control equity interests in such Apollo Stockholder of such interests to another similarly situated outside investor in accordance with the constituent terms of the governing documents of the Apollo Stockholder (each such Transfer, a “Permitted Transfer,” and each such Person receiving Shares pursuant to Transfers described in clauses (a) through (d) above, a “Permitted Transferee”) shall be permitted at any time without prior approval of the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (A) a Transfer of Class A Shares by a Legacy Class A Stockholder in a public offering in accordance with such Transferring Legacy Class A Stockholder’s exercise of registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement shall be permitted at any time without prior approval of the Board and shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 6.01(d) (other than clauses (iii), (iv) and (vi) of Section 6.01(d)), and (B) a Transfer of Class A Shares by a Legacy Class A Stockholder described in Section 6.01(b)(v)(1) shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 6.01(d) (other than clauses (iii), (iv) and (vi) of Section 6.01(d)).

SECTION 6.03. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) Subject to Section 6.05 below, in the event that any Legacy Class A Stockholder (the “Tag-Along Seller”) shall propose to Transfer any of its Class A Shares to any Person or Persons (“Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser”), including (for the avoidance of doubt) another Legacy Stockholder or Legacy Stockholders, in a Transfer permitted or approved in accordance with this Agreement (other than (i) pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, (ii) pursuant to a Drag-Along Sale, (iii) pursuant to a public offering

in accordance with the Tag-Along Seller’s exercise of registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, or (iv) following the consummation of a Qualified Offering) (a “Tag-Along Sale”), each other Legacy Class A Stockholder holding Class A Shares shall have the right and option (“Tag-Along Rights”), but not the obligation, to participate in such Tag-Along Sale, at the same price per Class A Share as the Tag-Along Seller (which shall take into account all consideration proposed to be paid by the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser to the Tag-Along Seller in connection with such Tag-Along Sale) and on the same terms as the Tag-Along Sale proposed by the Tag-Along Seller by Transferring up to its Maximum Tag-Along Portion.

(b) Such Tag-Along Seller shall notify each Legacy Class A Stockholder of any proposed Tag-Along Sale at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed effective date of such proposed Tag-Along Sale (a “Tag-Along Notice”), which notice may be delivered only following compliance with all of the provisions of Section 6.05, if applicable. Any Tag-Along Notice shall set forth that the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser has been informed of the Tag-Along Rights in Section 6.03(a) and has agreed to purchase Class A Shares held by the Legacy Class A Stockholders, the number of Class A Shares proposed to be Transferred to the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser, the identity of the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser, the amount and type of consideration proposed to be paid per Class A Share, the terms of the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser’s financing, if any, the proposed effective date for the Tag-Along Sale and any other terms and conditions of the Transfer (the “Tag-Along Terms”).

(c) Each other Legacy Class A Stockholder (each, a “Tag-Along Stockholder”) may exercise its Tag-Along Rights in connection with a Tag-Along Sale described in a Tag-Along Notice by delivering notice to the Tag-Along Seller within twenty (20) days from the date of receipt of the Tag-Along Notice. The Tag-Along Rights of the Tag-Along Stockholders pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall terminate with respect to such proposed Transfer if not exercised within such twenty (20)-day period. Such notice from a Tag-Along Stockholder shall specify the number of Class A Shares which such Tag-Along Stockholder wishes to include in the proposed Transfer if less than the Maximum Tag-Along Portion. In no event shall any Tag-Along Stockholder be permitted to sell more than its Maximum Tag-Along Portion in connection with a Tag-Along Sale. The exercise by a Tag-Along Stockholder of Tag-Along Rights as set forth in such notice (the “Tag-Along Exercise”) shall be irrevocable, and, to the extent such offer is accepted, the Tag-Along Stockholder shall be bound and obligated to Transfer on the same terms and conditions, with respect to each Class A Share Transferred, as the Tag-Along Seller, up to such number of Class A Shares specified in such Tag-Along Exercise; provided, however, that if the principal terms of the Tag-Along Sale change with the result that the per Class A Share price shall be less than the per Class A Share price set forth in the Tag-Along Notice or the other terms and conditions shall be less favorable to the Tag-Along Stockholders than those set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, such Tag-Along Stockholder shall have five (5) Business Days to consider such changes and shall be permitted to withdraw its Tag-Along Exercise by written notice to the Tag-Along Seller and upon such withdrawal shall be released from its obligations thereunder.

(d) The Tag-Along Seller shall attempt to obtain the inclusion in the Tag-Along Sale of (i) all of the Class A Shares that each Tag-Along Stockholder has elected to Transfer in its Tag-Along Exercise, and (ii) all of the Class A Shares that the Tag-Along Seller proposed to Transfer in its Tag-Along Notice (such Class A Shares collectively, the “Tag-Along Stock”). In the event the Tag-Along Seller shall be unable to obtain the inclusion of such entire number of Tag-Along Stock in the Tag-Along Sale, the number of Tag-Along Stock shall be allocated among the Tag-Along Stockholders which have delivered a Tag-Along Exercise in accordance with Section 6.03(c) and the Tag-Along Seller in proportion, as nearly as practicable, as follows:

(i) there shall be first allocated to each such Tag-Along Stockholder a number of Class A Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the number of Class A Shares included by such Tag-Along Stockholder in its Tag-Along Exercise, and (B) a number of Class A Shares equal to (x) the number of Class A Shares that the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser has agreed to acquire in such Tag-Along Sale, multiplied by (y) such Tag-Along Stockholder’s Legacy Class A Pro Rata Portion;

(ii) there shall then be allocated to the Tag-Along Seller a number of Class A Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the number of Class A Shares included by the Tag-Along Seller in its Tag-Along Notice, and (B) a number of Class A Shares equal to (x) the number of Class A Shares that the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser has agreed to acquire in such Tag-Along Sale, multiplied by (y) such Tag-Along Seller’s Legacy Class A Pro Rata Portion; and

(iii) the balance, if any, not allocated pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be allocated to the Tag-Along Seller, or in such other manner as the Tag-Along Seller may otherwise agree.

(e) Following the expiration of the twenty (20)-day period referred to in Section 6.03(c), the Tag-Along Seller shall notify each Tag-Along Stockholder, which shall have exercised its Tag-Along Rights in accordance with this Section 6.03, of the number of Tag-Along Stock that such Tag-Along Stockholder may include in the Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 6.03. Each such Tag-Along Stockholder shall then be entitled and obligated to sell to the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser such number of Tag-Along Stock on the Tag-Along Terms, subject to the proviso in Section 6.03(c). Each participating Tag-Along Stockholder shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates (including any of its Upper-Tier Co-Investors and in the case of EMI, its Upper-Tier Management Investors) to, cooperate in connection with such Tag-Along Sale and take all steps reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the Company, the Tag-Along Seller, the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser and the other participating Tag-Along Stockholders to Transfer its Tag-Along Stock in such Tag-Along Sale to the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser and otherwise consummate such Tag-Along Sale on the Tag-Along Terms (including by executing any purchase agreements, escrow agreements or related documents, including instruments of Transfer and providing customary several, but not joint, representations, warranties and indemnities concerning such participating Tag-Along Stockholder’s valid ownership of its Tag-Along Stock, free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances (other than those arising under this Agreement,

applicable securities laws or in connection with such Tag-Along Sale) and such Tag-Along Stockholder’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate agreements relating to such transactions without violating any applicable law or other agreement; provided, however, that such agreements, documents or instruments shall not contain any non-competition or similar restrictive covenants). Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, each participating Tag-Along Stockholder and the Tag-Along Seller shall, subject to the provisions of any definitive agreement (including any limitations on indemnification set forth therein) entered into in connection with such Tag-Along Sale, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser in any Tag-Along Sale, pro rata in accordance with the amount of consideration received by such Tag-Along Stockholder or the Tag-Along Seller, as applicable, in connection with such Tag-Along Sale as a proportion of the aggregate amount of consideration received by all such Tag-Along Stockholders and the Tag-Along Seller in connection with such Tag-Along Sale, from and against any losses, damages and liabilities arising from or in connection with (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company in connection with such Tag-Along Sale, and (ii) any other indemnification obligation in connection with such Tag-Along Sale relating to the business or potential liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, that (A) the terms of such indemnification obligation applicable to each Tag-Along Stockholder shall be consistent with terms applicable to the Tag-Along Seller, (B) such indemnification obligation shall be several and not joint, and (C) the aggregate maximum amount of such indemnification obligation shall not exceed the amount of consideration received by such Tag-Along Stockholder or the Tag-Along Seller in connection with such Tag-Along Sale. All reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Tag-Along Seller and each Tag-Along Stockholder (including in respect of financial advisors, accountants and counsel) in connection with a Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be shared by the Tag-Along Seller and each Tag-Along Stockholder participating in such Tag-Along Sale pro rata in accordance with the amount of proceeds to be received by the Tag-Along Seller and each such Tag-Along Stockholder in such Tag-Along Sale.

(f) In the event that, following delivery of a Tag-Along Notice, the twenty (20)-day period set forth in Section 6.03(c) shall have expired without any valid exercise of the rights under Section 6.03(c) by any Tag-Along Stockholder, the Tag-Along Seller shall have the right, during the ninety (90)-day period following the expiration of such twenty (20)-day period, to Transfer to the Proposed Tag-Along Purchaser, its Shares on the Tag-Along Terms without any further obligation under this Section 6.03. In the event that the Tag-Along Seller shall not have consummated such Transfer within such ninety (90)-day period, any subsequent proposed Tag-Along Sale shall once again be subject to the terms of this Section 6.03.

(g) If any amount is outstanding pursuant to a Management Loan, then until such time as all outstanding amounts under such Management Loan have been repaid in full, the net proceeds from such Tag-Along Sale otherwise payable to EMI shall first be applied to repay such Management Loan or such portion thereof as may be repaid with such net proceeds as if such net proceeds based on the provisions set forth in Section 4.02(c)(ii) were distributed by the Company in accordance therewith.

(h) The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall terminate upon the earlier of the consummation of a Qualified Offering and the consummation of a Change of Control.

SECTION 6.04. Drag-Along Rights.

(a) In the event that (i) (A) the Company or any Legacy Class A Stockholder (the “Prospective Drag-Along Seller”) receives an offer from a third party (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Legacy Class A Stockholder, any Upper-Tier Investor or any of their respective Affiliates) (a “Drag-Along Purchaser”) to purchase or otherwise acquire a number of Class A Shares (whether directly or indirectly, including for the avoidance of doubt, through a Transfer of the direct or indirect Equity Securities of any or all of the Legacy Stockholders) in a transaction (or series of related transactions) that would result in a Change of Control, (B) such transaction has been approved by a Special Board Approval, (C) at least eighty percent (80%) of the consideration offered by the Drag-Along Purchaser consists of cash or Marketable Securities, and (D) the MOIC implied in such transaction would be at least two (2) (such transaction, a “Drag-Along Sale”), or (ii) following May 24, 2017, such Drag-Along Sale has been approved by the Apollo Stockholder or the Legacy Class A Stockholders holding in the aggregate at least forty percent (40%) of the Class A Shares then held by the Legacy Class A Stockholders (in which case, for the avoidance of doubt, such Drag-Along Sale must satisfy the requirements set forth in clauses (i)(A), (i)(C) and (i)(D) above, but no other approval, including a Special Board Approval pursuant to clause (i)(B) of this Section 6.04(a) shall be required), then the Prospective Drag-Along Seller shall provide written notice to each Legacy Stockholder at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed effective date of the proposed Drag-Along Sale (the “Drag-Along Notice”) which notice shall set forth that the Drag-Along Purchaser has been informed of the provisions of this Section 6.04 and has agreed to consummate a Drag-Along Sale, the number of Class A Shares (the “Drag-Along Shares”) proposed to be acquired in such proposed Drag-Along Sale by the Drag-Along Purchaser (where applicable), the identity of the Drag-Along Purchaser, the amount and type of consideration proposed to be paid per Drag-Along Stock, the proposed closing date of such proposed Drag-Along Sale and any other material terms and conditions of such proposed Drag-Along Sale (the “Drag-Along Terms”).

(b) If the Prospective Drag-Along Seller consummates the proposed Drag-Along Sale, each Legacy Class A Stockholder shall (i) be bound and obligated to sell its Drag-Along Portion of its Class A Shares in the proposed Drag-Along Sale on the Drag-Along Terms; and (ii) shall receive the same form and amount of consideration per Class A Share to be received by each other Legacy Class A Stockholder in such proposed Drag-Along Sale for its Class A Stock. If any Legacy Class A Stockholder is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, each other Legacy Class A Stockholder will be given the same option. Unless otherwise agreed by the Legacy Class A Stockholders, any non-cash consideration shall be allocated among the Class A Shares held by the Legacy Class A Stockholders pro rata based on the aggregate amount of such consideration to be received in respect of such Class A Shares. If the Prospective Drag-Along Seller has not completed the proposed

Drag-Along Sale within 180 days after the date of delivery of the Drag-Along Notice, the Drag-Along Notice shall be null and void, each Legacy Class A Stockholder shall be released from its obligations under the Drag-Along Notice and it shall be necessary for a separate Drag-Along Notice to be furnished and the terms and provisions of this Section 6.04 separately complied with, in order to consummate such proposed Drag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 6.04; provided, however, that if a Majority-in-Interest shall have executed a definitive agreement within such period, the terms of any such definitive agreement shall continue to apply to such Drag-Along Sale and the Legacy Class A Stockholders shall not be released from their obligations under this Section 6.04 unless and until such definitive agreement is terminated.

(c) Each Legacy Stockholder shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates (including any Upper-Tier Investors) to, cooperate in connection with the Drag-Along Sale and take all steps reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the Company, the Drag-Along Purchaser and the other Legacy Stockholders to Transfer its Drag-Along Stock in such Drag-Along Sale to the Drag-Along Purchaser (or cancel its Class B Shares to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.04(d) in the case of Legacy Class B Stockholders) and otherwise consummate the Drag-Along Sale on the Drag-Along Terms (including by waiving any appraisal or dissenter’s rights that may exist under any applicable law, voting for or consenting to any merger, consolidation, sale of assets or similar transaction, executing any purchase agreements, merger agreements, escrow agreements or related documents, including instruments of Transfer and providing customary several, but not joint, representations, warranties and indemnities concerning such Legacy Stockholder’s valid ownership of its Shares, free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances (other than those arising under applicable securities laws or in connection with the Drag-Along Sale) and such Legacy Stockholder’s authority, power, and right to enter into and consummate agreements relating to such transactions without violating any applicable law or other agreement; provided, however, that such agreements, documents or instruments shall not contain any non-competition or similar restrictive covenants). Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, each Legacy Stockholder shall, subject to the provisions of any definitive agreement (including any limitations on indemnification set forth therein) entered into in connection with a Drag-Along Sale, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Drag-Along Purchaser in any Drag-Along Sale, pro rata in accordance with the amount of consideration received by such Legacy Stockholder in connection with such Drag-Along Sale as a proportion of the aggregate amount of consideration received by all such Legacy Stockholders in connection with such Drag-Along Sale, from and against any losses, damages and liabilities arising from or in connection with (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company in connection with such Drag-Along Sale, and (ii) any other indemnification obligation in connection with such Drag-Along Sale relating to the business or potential liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, that (A) if the Prospective Drag-Along Seller is a Legacy Class A Stockholder, the terms of such indemnification obligation applicable to each other Legacy Stockholder shall be consistent with terms applicable to the Prospective Drag-Along Seller, (B) such indemnification obligation shall be several and not joint, and (C) the aggregate maximum amount of such indemnification obligation shall not exceed

the amount of consideration received by such Legacy Stockholder in connection with such Drag-Along Sale.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if any amount is outstanding pursuant to a Management Loan, then until such time as all outstanding amounts under such Management Loan have been repaid in full, the net proceeds from such Drag-Along Sale otherwise payable to EMI or EEH, as applicable, shall first be applied to repay such Management Loan or such portion thereof as may be repaid with such net proceeds based on the provisions set forth in Section 4.02(c)(ii) as if such net proceeds were distributed by the Company in accordance therewith, and (ii) all outstanding Class B Shares shall be automatically cancelled upon the consummation of a Drag-Along Sale in accordance with this Section 6.04, and each Legacy Class B Stockholder shall, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, clause (i) of this Section 6.04(d)), be entitled to receive, in connection with such Drag-Along Sale in respect of its Class B Shares that were cancelled in such Drag-Along Sale, an amount equal to the amount, if any, that would be distributable to the Legacy Class B Stockholders if an amount equal to the product of (A) the aggregate consideration paid to the Legacy Class A Stockholders for their Class A Shares in the Drag-Along Sale and (B) a fraction, (1) the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Class A Shares outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Drag-Along Sale held by the Legacy Class A Stockholders and (2) the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Class A Shares acquired by the Drag-Along Purchaser in such Drag-Along Sale, was treated as a distribution of Capital Proceeds pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation.

(e) Notwithstanding clause (ii) of Section 6.04(d), but subject to clause (i) of Section 6.04(d) and in accordance with Section 6.04(c)), in connection with any Drag-Along Sale, the Company and the Prospective Drag-Along Seller may, in their sole discretion, structure such Drag-Along Sale such that some or all of the Class B Shares are either (i) exchanged by the Company for newly issued Class A Shares pursuant to a Class B Exchange in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation immediately prior to such Drag-Along Sale, which Class A Shares shall either be (A) freely transferable under federal securities laws by the Class B Stockholders under a resale registration statement to be filed concurrently with or as soon as reasonably practicable following such Drag-Along Sale and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure such registration statement is maintained effective at all times thereafter pursuant to applicable federal securities laws, or (B) sold in connection with such Drag-Along Sale, or (ii) sold directly to the Drag-Along Purchaser pursuant to such Drag-Along Sale; provided, that in no event shall the Legacy Class B Stockholders be entitled to receive consideration from such Drag-Along Sale that is less than or in excess of what they would have otherwise received pursuant to a Class B Exchange in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation if the remaining Class B Shares were exchanged by the Company as if all Class A Shares then held by the Specified Stockholders were being sold at the per Class A Share purchase price being paid by the Drag-Along Purchaser in such Drag-Along Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, the Legacy Class B Stockholders shall receive the same form of consideration paid to the Legacy Class A Stockholders in connection with such Drag-Along Sale.

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.04 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Change of Control.

SECTION 6.05. Right of First Refusal.

(a) In the event that any Legacy Class A Stockholder shall propose to Transfer any of its Class A Shares to any Person or Persons (the “Proposed ROFR Purchaser”) (other than (i) pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, (ii) pursuant to a Drag-Along Sale, (iii) pursuant to the valid exercise of Tag-Along Rights pursuant to Section 6.03, (iv) any Transfer of Class A Shares pursuant to a public offering in accordance with the Transferring Legacy Class A Stockholder’s exercise of registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or (v) following the consummation of a Qualified Offering), such Legacy Class A Stockholder (the “Offering Class A Stockholder”) shall deliver a written notice (the “ROFR Notice”) to the Company, the Apollo Stockholder, each Major Stockholder, each Principal Stockholder and any Legacy Stockholder that is a Permitted Transferee of the foregoing (collectively, the “Eligible Class A Stockholders” and each, an “Eligible Class A Stockholder”) specifying in reasonable detail the number of Class A Shares proposed to be Transferred in such transaction (the “Specified Class A Shares”), the offered purchase price per Class A Share therefor, which must be in cash (the “ROFR Purchase Price”), and any other material terms and conditions (the “ROFR Purchase Terms”).

(b) For a period of twenty (20) days after the ROFR Notice has been delivered to the Eligible Class A Stockholders (the “Eligible Class A Stockholder Option Period”), each Eligible Class A Stockholder shall be entitled to purchase up to its Maximum ROFR Portion of the Specified Class A Shares by delivering a written notice (an “Exercise Notice”) to the Offering Class A Stockholder and the Company prior to the expiration of the Eligible Class A Stockholder Option Period, specifying the number of Specified Class A Shares to be purchased at the ROFR Purchase Price (up to such Eligible Class A Stockholder’s Maximum ROFR Portion), its agreement (if applicable) to purchase Excess Specified Class A Shares (as defined below) and the amount thereof, and its acceptance of the ROFR Purchase Terms. The failure of an Eligible Class A Stockholder to respond within the Eligible Class A Stockholder Option Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Eligible Class A Stockholder’s rights under this Section 6.05(b) with respect to such Transfer. If any Eligible Class A Stockholder does not fully subscribe for its Maximum ROFR Portion of Specified Class A Shares that it is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 6.05(b), then each other fully participating Eligible Class A Stockholder who shall have elected to do so in its Exercise Notice shall have the right to purchase that percentage of the Specified Class A Shares not so subscribed for (the “Excess Specified Class A Shares”) determined by dividing (i) the number of Class A Shares then held by such fully participating Eligible Class A Stockholder, by (ii) the aggregate number of Class A Shares then owned by all fully participating Eligible Class A Stockholders who elected to purchase their Maximum ROFR Portion of Specified Class A Shares. The procedure described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be repeated until there are no remaining Excess Specified Class A Shares or all fully participating Eligible Class A Stockholders have been given the opportunity to purchase such Excess Specified Class A Shares elected in their respective

Exercise Notices. If any Excess Specified Class A Shares remain following the completion of such procedure, then for a period of twenty (20) days following the completion of such procedure (the “Company Option Period”), the Company shall be entitled to purchase all or any portion of such remaining Excess Specified Class A Shares by delivering a written notice to the Offering Class A Stockholder and the Eligible Class A Stockholders prior to the expiration of the Company Option Period, specifying the number of remaining Excess Specified Class A Shares to be purchased at the ROFR Purchase Price and its acceptance of the ROFR Purchase Terms. The failure of the Company to deliver such written notice within the Company Option Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Company’s rights under this Section 6.05(b) with respect to such proposed Transfer of the Specified Class A Shares.

(c) If the Company and the Eligible Class A Stockholders do not elect in the aggregate to purchase all of the Specified Class A Shares within the Eligible Class A Stockholder Option Period or the Company Option Period (as applicable), then, provided that the Offering Class A Stockholder has also complied with the provisions applicable to a Tag-Along Seller under Section 6.03, to the extent applicable, the Offering Class A Stockholder may Transfer all of such Specified Class A Shares not purchased by the Company and the Eligible Class A Stockholders pursuant to this Section 6.05 (except to the extent reduced pursuant to the exercise of Tag-Along Rights) to the Proposed ROFR Purchaser at a price that is not less than the ROFR Purchase Price and on terms that are not materially more favorable in the aggregate to the Proposed ROFR Purchaser than the ROFR Purchase Terms, but only to the extent such Transfer is completed within one-hundred and twenty (120) days after the expiration of the Eligible Class A Stockholder Option Period or the Company Option Period (as applicable). If such Transfer to the Proposed ROFR Purchaser is not completed within such period for any reason, the Offering Class A Stockholder and the Specified Class A Shares shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.05 in connection with any future attempt to Transfer all or any portion of its Class A Shares and no Transfer of such Specified Class A Shares may be made thereafter by the Offering Class A Stockholder without again offering the same to the Eligible Class A Stockholders and the Company in accordance with this Section 6.05.

(d) The closing of the purchase by the Company or the Eligible Class A Stockholders of any Specified Class A Shares pursuant to Section 6.05(b), shall be held at the principal executive office of the Company at 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, on the thirtieth (30th) day after the delivery of the Exercise Notices by the Eligible Class A Stockholders or the written notice by the Company required under Section 6.05(b), as the case may be, and as may be extended for up to an additional thirty (30) days if the approval of any Governmental Authority is required to be obtained in connection with such transaction, or at such other time or place as the participating Eligible Class A Stockholders or the Company, as the case may be, and the Offering Class A Stockholder shall agree. At such closing, the Offering Class A Stockholder shall pay all requisite transfer taxes payable in connection with such transaction and shall Transfer such number of Specified Class A Shares purchased pursuant to Section 6.05(b) to the participating Eligible Class A Stockholders or the Company, as applicable, free and clear of any Liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws, under this Agreement or in

connection with such transaction) and such Offering Class A Stockholder shall represent and warrant that it is the beneficial and record owner of such Specified Class A Shares and that it holds such Specified Class A Shares free and clear of any Liens. Such Offering Class A Stockholder shall also deliver to the participating Eligible Class A Stockholders and the Company, as applicable, such other documents and instruments of Transfer as may be reasonably requested by the participating Eligible Class A Stockholders and the Company, as applicable. Each Eligible Class A Stockholder and the Company, as applicable, shall deliver at such closing, payment in full in immediately available funds for the Specified Class A Shares purchased by it.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.05 shall terminate upon the earlier of the consummation of a Qualified Offering and the consummation of a Change of Control.

SECTION 6.06. Effect of Repurchases and Transfers.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, any Class A Shares repurchased by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall not be automatically cancelled and instead shall, unless the Board elects otherwise, be held available for reissuance by the Company subject to Section 5.03; provided, that so long as such Class A Shares are so held by the Company, such Class A Shares shall not entitle the Company to any voting or other rights otherwise associated with issued and outstanding Class A Shares.

(b) When any Shares are Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall cause such Transfer to be registered on the books of the Company, including Schedule A. The Transferee will succeed to the attributes of the Transferor of the Transferred Shares (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Capital Contributions, Unpaid Class A Preferred Return, Unrecovered Capital, Prior Distributions, in each case, as such terms are defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) for purposes of applying the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation to such Transferred Shares, except as otherwise provided in any amendment to this Agreement joining the Transferee as a Party. If the Transferee already owns Shares, any calculations or determination to be made under the Certificate of Incorporation shall be made separately with respect to the Transferred Shares and the Shares already owned.

SECTION 6.07. Repurchase; Forfeiture.

(a) General. Each of Section 6.07(a), Section 6.07(b) and Section 6.07(c) are subject to (i) with respect to Class A Shares issued to EMI, the provisions of the Subscription Agreement and (ii) with respect to Class B Shares issued to EEH, the MIP Agreement. All Transferees of EMI and EEH shall be subject to Section 6.07(a), Section 6.07(b) and Section 6.07(c).

(b) Vesting Schedule. Subject to Section 4.02(d), the Class B Shares shall vest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the MIP Agreement and related Award Agreement governing the issuance of such Class B Shares.

(i) Class B Shares issued to EEH shall be subject to forfeiture to the Company and repurchase by the Company as provided in the MIP Agreement, and Class A Shares issued to EMI shall be subject to repurchase by the Company, as provided in the Subscription Agreement.

(ii) If any amount is outstanding pursuant to a Management Loan as of the date of such repurchase of Class A Shares or Class B Shares, then the purchase price for such Class A Shares or Class B Shares, as applicable, shall first be applied to repay such Management Loan or such portion thereof pursuant to the terms of such Management Loan as if such purchase price were distributed by the Company in accordance therewith.

For the avoidance of doubt, any Class A Shares or Class B Shares repurchased pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall be deemed forfeited in full as of the time of receipt of payment therefore, whether in cash or by note or in accordance with Section 6.07(c)(ii) or Section 6.07(d)(ii), and consequently, the holder thereof shall not be entitled to any cash distributions in respect of such Class A Shares or Class B Shares for any period thereafter, including during the time that any note issued by the Company in respect of the purchase price of such Class A Shares or Class B Shares pursuant to this Section 6.07 remains outstanding.

(d) Repurchases Upon Request.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any EEH Member (other than the CEO or the chief financial officer of the Company) who is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to, during the first five (5) Business Days of the month of June (the “Redemption Window”) of each year following May 24, 2017, deliver written notice to the CEO (a “Redemption Notice”) requesting that a portion of the EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member which are Vested Class B Shares be repurchased by the Company and that EEH repurchase that same number of EEH Units from such EEH Member at the Fair Market Value of such EEH Corresponding Shares and shall set a closing date for such repurchase, which shall not be less than ten (10) days and not more than fifty-five (55) days after the date of receipt by the CEO of such Member Acceptance; provided, however, that no EEH Member or any other Person shall have such right, and the Company shall not repurchase any Class B Shares and EEH shall not repurchase any EEH Units pursuant to this Section 6.07(d), after the consummation of a Threshold Capital Transaction. EEH and such EEH Member shall execute and deliver all documentation and agreements reasonably requested by the Company to reflect such repurchase, but the failure of EEH or such EEH Member to execute or deliver any such documentation shall not affect the validity of such repurchase pursuant to this Section 6.07(d). In connection with any repurchase pursuant to this Section 6.07(d), such EEH Member shall at a minimum make customary representations and warranties concerning (A) such EEH Member’s valid title to and ownership of the EEH Units, free of all Liens (excluding those arising under applicable securities laws),

(B) such EEH Member’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate such repurchase, (C) the absence of any violation, default or acceleration of any agreement to which such EEH Member is subject or by which its assets are bound as a result of such repurchase, and (D) the absence of, or compliance with, any governmental or third party consents, approvals, filings or notifications required to be obtained or made by such EEH Member in connection with such EEH Units. Such EEH Member shall specify in such Repurchase Notice the reason for such request, including any financial needs for the CEO to consider. If the CEO receives such Redemption Notice during the Redemption Window, the CEO shall notify the Board in writing that a financial need of such EEH Member exists (a “Valuation Request”) only if the CEO determines in good faith, based on the facts and circumstances, that such EEH Member has financial needs that warrant a repurchase of the EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member (giving special consideration and priority to EEH Members with an immediate financial need). Within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Board of such Valuation Request the Board shall cause the Company to provide written notice of the Fair Market Value of such EEH Corresponding Shares to the CEO and such EEH Member (the “Valuation Determination”). Within ten (10) days of such EEH Member’s receipt of such Value Determination, such EEH Member shall provide written notice to the CEO as to whether such EEH Member either accepts such Valuation Determination (a “Member Acceptance”) and if such EEH Member fails to deliver such Member Acceptance within such time period, such EEH Member shall be deemed to have rejected such Valuation Determination. If such EEH Member delivers such Member Acceptance within such time period, the CEO shall have the right to cause the Company to repurchase a portion of such EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member for the Fair Market Value specified in such Valuation Determination (and upon such repurchase, EEH shall repurchase from such EEH Member the same number of EEH Units as the EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member so repurchased); provided, however, that the CEO shall not cause the Company to repurchase (I) during any Fiscal Year, EEH Corresponding Shares with a Fair Market Value of more than $15,000,000 in the aggregate, (II) during any fiscal year, from any EEH Member (or Permitted Transferees thereof), more than twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the maximum number of EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member, or (III) in the aggregate, from any EEH Member (or Permitted Transferees thereof), more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum number of EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such EEH Member. For the avoidance of doubt, the CEO may determine that the Company shall not repurchase any Class B Shares pursuant to this Section 6.07(d) to the extent the CEO makes such determination in good faith and after taking into account factors including cash on hand and Available Cash, the working capital and capital expenditure needs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, reasonable reserves and the continued compliance with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ obligations under their respective debt instruments and debt-related documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.07(d)(i), the CEO shall not approve any repurchase of EEH Corresponding Shares or cause the Company to repurchase any EEH Corresponding Shares unless such repurchase complies with applicable law and, to the knowledge of the CEO (after reasonable due inquiry; provided, that the CEO shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of the debt instruments and debt-related documents to which the

Company and its Subsidiaries are parties or otherwise have obligations in respect thereof) any contracts or agreements to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are parties or otherwise have obligations in respect thereof. Any EEH Units repurchased from any such employee pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.07(d)(i) (and the Corresponding EEH Units) shall be cancelled and, as a result of the repurchase, the total number of EEH Units held by such employee (and the Corresponding EEH Units) shall be reduced correspondingly. In addition, if a Threshold Capital Transaction is consummated following the repurchase of any such employee’s EEH Units, and the Fair Market Value per unit of the repurchased EEH Corresponding Shares (determined, on a volume-weighted-averaged basis, in the event that there are multiple repurchases of EEH Corresponding Shares, in each case based on the Fair Market Value per repurchased EEH Corresponding Shares) exceeds the Fair Market Value per repurchased EEH Corresponding Share of the remaining EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such employee at the time of the consummation of such Threshold Capital Transaction (such excess, the “EEH Corresponding Excess Amount”), then the amount that would otherwise be distributable in respect of such remaining EEH Corresponding Shares attributable to such employee shall be reduced by an amount equal to (x) the EEH Corresponding Excess Amount, multiplied by (y) the number of such repurchased EEH Corresponding Shares. The amount of such reduction shall be distributed in respect of the other Class B Shares pro rata.

(ii) If any amount is outstanding pursuant to a Management Loan as of the date of a repurchase pursuant to this Section 6.07(d), then the purchase price for such Class B Shares shall first be applied to repay such Management Loan or such portion thereof pursuant to the terms of such Management Loan as if such purchase price were distributed by the Company in accordance therewith.

SECTION 8.13. Amendment.

to EEH II pursuant to Section 4.02(b)) in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement; provided, further, that no amendment, modification or waiver which would disproportionately and materially adversely affect the interests of any Legacy Stockholder (in relation to any other Legacy Stockholder or class of Legacy Stockholders after taking into account or giving effect to the relative designations, preferences and/or special rights of the Shares held by such other Legacy Stockholder or class of Legacy Stockholders immediately prior to such amendment, modification or waiver) hereunder and/or thereunder (as applicable) shall be effective without the written approval of such Legacy Stockholder. In the event of the amendment or modification of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Board shall meet within thirty (30) days following such amendment or modification (or as soon thereafter as is practicable) for the purpose of adopting any amendment to the Company Governing Documents that may be advisable as a result of such amendment or modification to this Agreement, and, to the extent the Company is not permitted to effect such amendment to the Company Governing Documents without the approval of the Legacy Class A Stockholders, proposing such amendments to the Company Governing Documents to the Legacy Class A Stockholders entitled to vote thereon. The Legacy Class A Stockholders hereby agree to vote in favor of such amendments to the Company Governing Documents.

SECTION 8.14. Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Legacy Stockholders shall, and shall direct those of its directors, officers, members, stockholders, partners, employees, attorneys, accountants, consultants, trustees, Affiliates and other Representatives (the “Legacy Stockholder Parties”) who have access to Confidential Information to, keep confidential and not disclose any Confidential Information without the express consent, in the case of Confidential Information acquired from the Company, of the Board or, in the case of Confidential Information acquired from another Legacy Stockholder, such other Legacy Stockholder, unless:

(i) such disclosure shall be required by applicable law, governmental rule or regulation, court order, administrative or arbitral proceeding;

(ii) such disclosure is reasonably required in connection with any tax audit involving the Company or any Legacy Stockholder;

(iii) such disclosure is reasonably required in connection with any litigation against or involving the Company or any Legacy Stockholder; or

(iv) such disclosure is reasonably required in connection with any proposed Transfer of all or any part of such Legacy Stockholder’s Shares; provided, that with respect to any such use of any Confidential Information referred to in this clause (iv), advance notice must be given to the Board so that it may require any proposed Transferee that is not a Legacy Stockholder to enter into a confidentiality

agreement with terms substantially similar to the terms of this Section 8.14 (excluding this clause (iv)) prior to the disclosure of such Confidential Information.

(b) “Confidential Information” shall mean any information related to the activities of the Company, the Legacy Stockholders and their respective Affiliates that a Legacy Stockholder may acquire from the Company or the Legacy Stockholders, other than information that (i) is already available through publicly available sources of information (other than as a result of disclosure by such Legacy Stockholder), (ii) was available to a Legacy Stockholder on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to such Legacy Stockholder by the Company or another Legacy Stockholder, or (iii) becomes available to a Legacy Stockholder on a non-confidential basis from a third party, provided such third party is not known by such Legacy Stockholder, after reasonable inquiry, to be bound by this Agreement or another confidentiality agreement with the Company. Such Confidential Information may include information that pertains or relates to the business and affairs of any other Legacy Stockholder or any other Company matters. Confidential Information may be used by a Legacy Stockholder and its Legacy Stockholder Parties only in connection with Company matters and in connection with the maintenance of its Shares.

(c) In the event that any Legacy Stockholder or any Legacy Stockholder Parties of such Legacy Stockholder is required to disclose any of the Confidential Information, such Legacy Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Company with prompt written notice so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, and such Legacy Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company in any effort any such Person undertakes to obtain a protective order or other remedy. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that the Company waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.14, such Legacy Stockholder and its Legacy Stockholder Parties shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required and shall exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reasonably reliable assurance that the Confidential Information shall be accorded confidential treatment.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.01 and the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.14, this Section 8.14 shall not apply in respect of any Upper-Tier Management Investor of EMI or EEH who is or has been a party to any Management Agreement containing provisions as to confidentiality (which shall instead govern their obligations of confidentiality); provided, that each such Upper-Tier Management Investor shall nevertheless also be subject to this Section 8.14 with respect to Confidential Information consisting of: (i) the terms, provisions and existence of this Agreement and the other agreements referenced in Section 8.08, to the extent such documents are not publicly available, (ii) any information relating to the Legacy Stockholders or their respective Upper-Tier Investors or other Affiliates (including, as applicable, the identities of such Persons, their Pro Rata Portion, the number of Shares held by such Persons and the corporate ownership structure of the Company and the Legacy Stockholders), and (iii) any information obtained by or provided to such Upper-Tier Management Investor under this Agreement (including pursuant to the Section 2.01

Principle) or through any Board Observer designated by EMI or the CEO, whether through such Board Observer’s or the CEO’s attendance of any Board meetings or receipt of written materials distributed to each Board Observers or the CEO, in each case solely in its capacity as a representative on the Board, except that any such covered information shall not be deemed to include any information presented by management to the Board that relates to ordinary course financial or operational matters).

SECTION 8.15. Representation by Counsel. Each of the Parties has been represented by and has had an opportunity to consult with legal counsel in connection with the drafting, negotiation and execution of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any Party by any court or arbitrator or any Governmental Authority by reason of such Party having drafted or being deemed to have drafted such provision.

SECTION 8.16. Exhibits and Schedules. All Exhibits and Schedules attached to this Agreement are incorporated and shall be treated as if set forth herein.

SECTION 8.17. Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for breaches or violations of this Agreement and that any Party, in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Parties may have hereunder or at law or in equity, may, in its sole discretion, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 8.06 for specific performance or injunction or such other equitable relief as such court may deem just and proper in order to enforce this Agreement in the event of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement or prevent any violation hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Party hereby waives (a) any objection to the imposition of such relief, and (b) any requirement for the posting of any bond or similar collateral in connection therewith.

SECTION 8.18. Reliance on Authority of Person Signing Agreement. If a Legacy Stockholder is not a natural person, neither the Company nor any other Legacy Stockholder will (a) be required to determine the authority of the individual signing this Agreement to make any commitment or undertaking on behalf of such entity or to determine any fact or circumstance bearing upon the existence of the authority of such individual, or (b) be responsible for the application or distribution of proceeds paid or credited to individuals signing this Agreement on behalf of such entity.

SECTION 8.19. Restriction on Voting. If, pursuant to this Agreement, any Legacy Stockholder is not entitled to cast a vote, give a consent or provide or withhold any approval under this Agreement or otherwise, the determination as to whether the matter under consideration has been approved or consented to shall be made without regard to the voting or approval rights of such Legacy Stockholder in counting the necessary votes, consents or approvals.

SECTION 8.20. Survival of Certain LLC Agreement Tax Provisions.

(a) Tax Returns.

(i) The Company shall timely cause to be prepared by an Accounting Firm all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns (including information returns) of the LLC and its Subsidiaries, for taxable periods ending on or before the termination date of the LLC (“LLC Taxable Periods”), which may be required by a jurisdiction in which the LLC and its Subsidiaries operate or conduct business for each LLC Taxable Period for which such returns are required to be filed and shall cause such returns to be timely filed.

(ii) Within ninety (90) days after the end of each LLC Taxable Period, the Company shall furnish to each Person that was a member of the LLC during such LLC Taxable Period all information required to be reported in the tax returns of such Person for tax jurisdictions in which the LLC is doing business, including a report (including Schedule K-1, if applicable) indicating each such Person’s share in the LLC’s taxable income, gain, credits, losses and deductions for such year, in sufficient detail to enable such Person to prepare its federal, state and other tax returns. The Company shall provide each such Person with an estimate of such information within sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable LLC Taxable Period. The Company shall provide each such Person with sufficient information for such Person and its direct or indirect owners to pay estimated taxes with respect to the LLC at least fifteen (15) days before such estimated taxes are due. The Company will provide each current or former member of the LLC with any information reasonably requested by such Person in connection with the filing of any tax return by such Person or an Affiliate of such Person, any tax audit or proceeding relating to such Person or an Affiliate of such Person or any tax planning of such Person or an Affiliate of such Person.

(b) Inconsistent Positions. No Legacy Stockholder or its predecessor in interest shall take a position on its income tax return with respect to any item of LLC income, gain, deduction, loss or credit that is different from the position taken on the LLC’s income tax return with respect to such item.

(c) Audits. If any current or former member of the LLC or any Affiliate of a current or former member of the LLC would be materially adversely affected by any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding with respect to the LLC and its Subsidiaries, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall (to the extent practicable under the circumstances) consult with such Person in good faith in connection with the negotiation, settlement or the making of any material decision with respect to such audit or proceeding. The Company shall provide to such Person any information reasonably requested by such Person in connection with any such audit or proceeding.

(d) Tax Matters Partner. The “Tax Matters Partner” (as such term is defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code) of the LLC shall continue to be AIF VII (AIV), L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, for all periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Effective Date. The Tax Matters Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the responsibilities outlined in Sections 6221 through 6233 of the Code (including the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) and shall have any powers necessary to perform fully in such capacity. The Tax Matters Partner is authorized to represent the LLC before taxing authorities and courts in tax matters

affecting the LLC and the Legacy Stockholders or their predecessors in interest, in their capacity as members of the LLC, and shall keep the Legacy Stockholders promptly informed of any such administrative and judicial proceedings. The Tax Matters Partner shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable third-party costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with any administrative or judicial proceeding affecting tax matters of the LLC and the Legacy Stockholders or their predecessors in interest, in their capacity as members of the LLC. The Tax Matters Partner shall not bind any Legacy Stockholder to any settlement agreement or closing agreement without such Legacy Stockholder’s prior written consent. Any Legacy Stockholder who enters into a settlement agreement with any tax authority with respect to any LLC item shall notify the Tax Matters Partner of such settlement agreement and its terms within thirty (30) days after the date of settlement. This provision shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Form of Addendum Agreement

This Addendum Agreement (this “Addendum Agreement”) is made this [ ] day of [ ], 20[ ], by and between [ ] (the “Transferee”), [ ] (the “Transferor”) and EP Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to the terms of that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated as of August [ ], 2013, by and among the Company and those stockholders of the Company that are signatories thereto (including all exhibits and schedules thereto, the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Company and the Legacy Stockholders entered into the Agreement to impose certain restrictions and obligations upon themselves, and to provide certain rights, with respect to the Company, the Legacy Stockholders and the Shares;

WHEREAS, the Transferee is acquiring Shares pursuant to a Transfer, in accordance with the Agreement and in such amount as set forth in Section 4 below (the “Acquired Shares”); and

WHEREAS, the Agreement requires that any Person to whom Shares are Transferred must enter into an Addendum Agreement binding the Transferee to the Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto and imposing the same restrictions and obligations upon the Transferee and the Acquired Shares as are imposed upon the Legacy Stockholders and the Shares under the Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises of the parties hereto and as a condition of the purchase or receipt by the Transferee of the Acquired Shares, the Transferee acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1. The Transferee has received and read the Agreement and acknowledges that the Transferee is acquiring the Acquired Shares in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

2. By the execution and delivery of this Addendum Agreement, the Transferee represents and warrants to, and agrees with the Company and the Transferor that the following statements are true and correct as of the date hereof:

(a) The Transferee is holding the Acquired Shares for its own account solely for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof other than in compliance with all applicable securities laws and the Agreement.

Exhibit C-1

(b) If the Transferee is an entity, the Transferee is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization. If the Transferee is a natural person, such Transferee has full legal capacity.

(c) Except as expressly disclosed in writing to the Company and the other Parties, the execution, delivery and performance by the Transferee of this Addendum Agreement are within the Transferee’s corporate or other powers, as applicable, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on its behalf (or, if the Transferee is an individual, are within such Transferee’s legal right, power and capacity), require no consent, approval, permit, license, order or authorization of, notice to, action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority on the part of the Transferee (except as expressly disclosed in writing to the Board prior to the date hereof), and do not and will not result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or of any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree or any agreement or other instrument to which the Transferee is a party or by which the Transferee or any of the Transferee’s properties is bound. This Addendum Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Transferee and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Transferee, enforceable against the Transferee in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.

(d) The Transferee acknowledges that the Transfer of the Acquired Shares and any related offering have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, and, to the extent an offer or sale is involved, are being made in reliance upon federal and state exemptions for transactions not involving a public offering. In furtherance thereof, the Transferee represents and warrants that it is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) and the Transferee has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the risks of its investment in the Acquired Shares. The Transferee agrees that it will not take any action that could have an adverse effect on the availability of the exemption from registration provided by Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act with respect to the offer and sale of the interests in the Company. In connection with its acquisition of the Acquired Shares, the Transferee meets all the applicable suitability standards imposed on it by applicable law.

(e) The Transferee has been given the opportunity to (i) ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Acquired Shares and other matters pertaining to an investment in the Company and (ii) obtain any additional information necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company that the Company can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense. In considering its investment in the Acquired Shares, the Transferee has evaluated for itself the risks and merits of such investment, and is able to bear the economic risk of such investment, including a complete loss of capital, and in addition has not relied upon any representations made by, or other information (whether oral or written) furnished

Exhibit C-2

by or on behalf of, the Company or its Subsidiaries or any director, officer, employee, agent or Affiliate of such Persons, other than as set forth in the Agreement and the Interim Investors Agreement. The Transferee has carefully considered and has, to the extent it believes necessary, discussed with legal, tax, accounting and financial advisors the suitability of an investment in the Company in light of its particular tax and financial situation, and has determined that the Acquired Shares are a suitable investment for such Transferee.

(f) The Transferee does not have any liability or obligation to pay any fees or commissions to any broker, finder, or agent with respect to the execution, delivery or performance of this Addendum Agreement by the Transferee.

3. The Transferee agrees that the Acquired Shares are bound by and subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement, and hereby joins in, and agrees to be bound by, and shall have the benefit of, all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement to the same extent as if the Transferee were an original party to the Agreement; provided, however, that the Transferee’s joinder in the Agreement shall not constitute a joinder of the Transferee as a party to the Agreement unless and until the Company executes this Addendum Agreement confirming the due joining of the Transferee as a party to the Agreement. This Addendum Agreement shall be attached to and become a part of the Agreement.

4. For good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Transferor and the Transferee, the Transferor hereby Transfers absolutely to the Transferee the Acquired Shares, including, for the avoidance of doubt, all rights, title and interest in and to the Acquired Shares, with effect from the date hereof. It is hereby confirmed by the Transferor that the Transferor has complied in all respects with the provisions of the Agreement with respect to the Transfer of the Acquired Shares. The number of Shares currently held by the Transferor, and the number of Acquired Shares to be transferred and assigned pursuant to this Addendum Agreement, are as follows:

Number of Shares Held by the Transferor		Number of Acquired Shares

[ ]		[ ]

5. The Transferee hereby agrees to accept the Acquired Shares and hereby agrees and consents to become a Party and hereby is admitted as a Party.

6. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be delivered to the Transferee pursuant to the Agreement shall be given to the Transferee at the address and/or facsimile number listed beneath the Transferee’s signature below.

7. This Addendum Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
