This STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of June 1, 2011, by and among BakerCorp International Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Permira IV Continuing L.P.1, Permira IV Continuing L.P.2, Permira Investments Limited and P4 Co-Investment L.P. (collectively, the “Permira Stockholders”), the parties identified on the signature pages hereto as “Management Stockholders” (the “Management Stockholders”) and the parties identified on the signature pages hereto as “Additional Stockholders”(the “Additional Stockholders”, collectively with the Management Stockholders, the “Minority Stockholders” and, collectively with the Permira Stockholders, the “Stockholders”).

A. WHEREAS, the Company is party to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 12, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, B-Corp Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), LY BTI Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (as such name is amended after the date hereof, “Target”) and Lightyear Capital LLC, solely in its capacity as stockholder representative, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Target with Target surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”);

B. WHEREAS, immediately prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Permira Stockholders owned all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company;

C. WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company and certain of the Management Stockholders have entered into a Contribution Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2011 (the “Initial Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which such Management Stockholders will contribute to the Company shares of common stock and options of Target in exchange for Common Stock and options to purchase Common Stock (the “Options”), respectively, as set forth on Schedule I hereto;

D. WHEREAS, simultaneously with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, certain other Management Stockholders have entered into a contribution agreement (together with the Initial Contribution Agreement, the “Contribution Agreements”), pursuant to which such Management Stockholders will contribute to the Company shares of common stock and options of Target in exchange for Common Stock and Options, respectively, as set forth on Schedule I hereto;

E. WHEREAS, simultaneously with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Permira Stockholders, the Additional Stockholders and the Company have entered into a series of subscription agreements, dated as of the date hereof (the “Subscription Agreements”) pursuant to which such Stockholders will subscribe for the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in Schedule I hereto;

F. WHEREAS, immediately after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Contribution Agreements and the Subscription Agreements, the Permira Stockholders will hold a majority of the Common Stock and the Minority Stockholders will hold the remainder of the Common Stock;

G. WHEREAS, as of the Effective Time, each of the Management Stockholders shall have entered into, and/or may in the future enter into, a stock option agreement (or agreements) with the Company, pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Company has agreed or may agree to grant Options to the Management Stockholders, which upon Exercise of such Options, the Option Stock will be subject to this Agreement; and

H. WHEREAS, the Company and the Stockholders desire to enter into this Agreement for the purposes, among others, of assuring continuity in the management and ownership of the Company and limiting the manner and terms by which the Minority Stockholders’ Common Stock may be transferred.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows, effective as of the Effective Time:

1. Definitions. Capitalized and other terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings as defined in Annex A hereto.

2. Interpretation.

(a) Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, the words “hereof,” “herein,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

(b) The terms defined in the singular shall have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice versa. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms.

(c) References herein to a specific Article, Section, Schedule, Exhibit or Annex shall refer, respectively, to Articles, Sections, Schedules, Exhibits or Annexes of this Agreement, unless the express context otherwise requires.

(d) Whenever the word “include,” “includes” or “including” is used in this Agreement, it shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” unless clearly indicated otherwise.

(e) The headings and titles in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

3. Restrictions on Transfer of Company Stock.

(a) Prohibition Against Transfer of Management Company Stock. No Minority Stockholder may, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer, assign, donate, contribute, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of (any of the foregoing, a “Transfer”) any Company Stock, or any interest therein, except in accordance with Section 3(b) or with the prior written consent of the Company.

(b) Permitted Transfers. Subject to Section 4(f), the provisions of Section 3(a) shall not apply to the following Transfers:

(i) any Transfer of Company Stock by a Minority Stockholder to members of such Minority Stockholder’s Family Group;

(ii) any Transfer of Company Stock by a Minority Stockholder to the Company or any Permira Stockholder or any Affiliate of any Permira Stockholder;

(iii) any Transfer of Company Stock by a Minority Stockholder to the Company in a transaction approved by the Board of Directors of the Company;

(iv) any Transfer of Company Stock by a Minority Stockholder to any Person in connection with a merger, consolidation, acquisition, sale, exchange, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar transaction approved by the Board of the Company; and

(v) any Transfer of Company Stock pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6;

(the transferee of any such Transfer being a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that the Minority Stockholder making the Transfer must first give the Company at least ten (10) days prior written notice of such Transfer, which notice must include the name and address of the Permitted Transferee and the number of shares of Company Stock to be Transferred; provided, further, that the Permitted Transferee must, prior to any such Transfer, have agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement affecting the Company Stock and have executed and delivered a joinder agreement or such other documents that may be reasonably requested by the Company. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Company Stock in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall not record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported, transferee of such Company Stock as the owner of such shares for any purpose.

4. Drag-Along Rights.

(a) If any one or more of the Permira Stockholders (the “Permira Sellers”) proposes to Transfer (including pursuant to a merger), to any Person or Group that is not an Affiliate of any of the Permira Stockholders (a “Third Party Purchaser”), more than 50% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company, then the Permira Sellers may require each other Stockholder (the “Dragged Stockholder”) to Transfer that percentage of its Common Stock equal to the percentage of the Common Stock held by the Permira Sellers which are being Transferred to the Third Party Purchaser for the same per share consideration and otherwise on equivalent

terms and conditions as those received by the Permira Sellers (the “Drag-Along Sale”); provided, however, that no Stockholder shall be required to Transfer any shares of Common Stock unless each other Stockholder is also required to make such a Transfer in accordance with this Section 4.

(b) The Permira Sellers shall send written notice (the “Drag-Along Notice”) of the exercise of its rights pursuant to this Section 4 to each Dragged Stockholder setting forth the consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid pursuant to the Drag-Along Sale, the identity of the Third Party Purchaser and any other material terms and conditions of the transaction. Each Dragged Stockholder, upon receipt of the Drag-Along Notice, shall be obligated to (i) vote its shares of Common Stock, if applicable, in favor of such Drag-Along Sale at any meeting of holders of Common Stock called to vote on or approve such Drag-Along Sale (or any written consent solicited for such purpose), (ii) participate in the Drag-Along Sale and Transfer all of its shares of Common Stock required to be Transferred pursuant to Section 4(a) to such Third Party Purchasers and (iii) otherwise take all necessary action, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, expressly waiving any dissenter’s rights or rights of appraisal or similar rights, entering into an agreement reflecting the terms of the Drag-Along Sale, surrendering certificates, cooperating in obtaining any applicable Governmental Authorization and otherwise as reasonably required to assist the Permira Sellers in the consummation of such Drag-Along Sale. Any such Drag-Along Notice may be rescinded by the Permira Sellers by delivering written notice thereof to each Dragged Stockholder.

(c) Solely for purposes of Section 4(b)(i) and in order to secure the performance of each Stockholder’s obligations under Section 4(b)(i), each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints each other Stockholder that qualifies as a Drag-Along Proxy Holder (as defined below) the attorney-in-fact and proxy of such Stockholder (with full power of substitution) to vote or provide a written consent with respect to its Common Stock as described in this paragraph if, and only in the event that, such Stockholder fails to vote or provide a written consent with respect to its Common Stock in accordance with the terms of Section 4(b)(i) (each such Stockholder, a “Breaching Drag-Along Stockholder”) within three (3) days of a request for such vote or written consent. Upon such failure, the Permira Sellers shall have and are hereby irrevocably granted a proxy to vote or provide a written consent with respect to each such Breaching Drag-along Stockholder’s Common Stock for the purposes of taking the actions required by Section 4(b)(i) (such Permira Sellers, a “Drag-Along Proxy Holder”). Each Stockholder intends this proxy to be, and it shall be, irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and each Stockholder will take such further action and execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and hereby revoke any proxy previously granted by it with respect to the matters set forth in Section 4(b)(i) with respect to the Common Stock owned by such Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conditional proxy granted by this Section 4(c) shall be deemed to be revoked upon the termination of this Section 4 in accordance with this Agreement.

(d) The obligations of each Dragged Stockholder pursuant to Section 4(a) are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) A Dragged Stockholder shall not be required to provide any representations or warranties in connection with the Drag-Along Sale other than representations and warranties concerning such Dragged Stockholder’s valid ownership of its shares of Common Stock free of all Encumbrances, and such Dragged Stockholder’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate the Drag-Along Sale.

(ii) In the event that the Permira Sellers are required to provide representations, warranties or indemnities in connection with the Drag-Along Sale (other than representations, warranties or indemnities by any concerning the Permira Sellers valid ownership of their shares of Common Stock free of all Encumbrances, and the Permira Sellers authority, power and right to enter into and consummate the Drag-Along Sale without violating any other agreement) and the Permira Sellers are required to indemnify the party or parties transacting with the Permira Sellers in the Drag-Along Sale, then each Dragged Stockholder shall indemnify the Permira Sellers (or shall provide the same indemnity as the Permira Sellers to the party or parties transacting with the Permira Sellers in the Drag-Along Sale) to the extent of the lesser of (A) its pro rata share of such indemnification payments (based upon the total consideration received by such Dragged Stockholder divided by the total consideration received by all sellers in such Drag-Along Sale) and (B) the total proceeds actually received by such Dragged Stockholder as consideration for its shares of Common Stock in such Drag-Along Sale. In any such event, such liability shall be several and not joint with any other Person.

(e) Each Dragged Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure any Governmental Authorization required to be obtained by such Dragged Stockholder and shall provide any information which may be needed from such Dragged Stockholder in connection therewith, to comply as soon as reasonably practicable with all applicable Laws and to take all such other actions and to execute such additional documents as are necessary or appropriate in order to consummate the Drag-Along Sale.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4 to the contrary, no Transfer by any Dragged Stockholder shall be permitted from the time that a Drag-Along Notice is received until the consummation or termination of such Drag-Along Sale (other than any Transfer by the Dragged Stockholders in such Drag-Along Sale). The provisions of this Section 4 shall also apply to any shares of Common Stock acquired by or issued to any Stockholder after the date of this Agreement, including any Option Stock.

(g) All costs and expenses of the Drag-Along Sale incurred by any Dragged Stockholder shall be borne by such Dragged Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Dragged Stockholders shall not be required to bear any costs and expenses of such Drag-Along incurred by the Permira Sellers (it being understood that such expenses may be paid for by the Company).

(h) For purposes of clarification, when used in this Section 4, the phrases “same per share consideration” and “equivalent terms and conditions” shall not include transaction, banking, monitoring or service fees or any other fees of a similar nature paid to the Permira Stockholders, whether in connection with such Drag-Along Sale or otherwise, or any employment, consulting, change of control, non-compete or any other fees of a similar nature paid to the Dragged Stockholder, whether in connection with such Drag-Along Sale or otherwise.

5. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) Subject to Section 4 hereof, if any one or more of the Permira Sellers proposes to Transfer (including pursuant to a merger) shares of Common Stock to a Third Party Purchaser, then each Minority Stockholder shall have the right (the “Tag-Along Right”) to include a number of shares of Common Stock and vested Option Stock owned by it in the Tag-Along Sale, for the same per share consideration (which, in the case of vested Option Stock, shall be adjusted as provided in the last sentence of this Section 5(a)) and upon equivalent terms and conditions to be paid and given to the Permira Sellers for its shares of Common Stock in the agreement contemplating such Tag-Along Sale, equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) obtained by multiplying (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and vested Option Stock owned by such Minority Stockholder and the denominator of which is the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and vested Option Stock owned by the Permira Sellers and all Minority Stockholders exercising their Tag-Along Rights under this Section 5, collectively, by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock and vested Option Stock proposed to be sold in the contemplated Tag-Along Sale without regard to the terms of this Section 5 (the product of (A) and (B), with respect to each Minority Stockholder exercising its Tag-Along Rights under this Section 5, the “Tag-Along Shares”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the purchase price payable per share of vested Option Stock pursuant to this Section 5 shall be the same per share consideration paid to the Permira Sellers for its shares of Common Stock in the agreement contemplating such Tag-Along Sale, less the per share exercise price applicable to such vested Option Stock.

(b) The Permira Sellers shall give notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to each Minority Stockholder of any Tag-Along Sale giving rise to the Tag-Along Rights at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed consummation of such Tag-Along Sale, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold in the Tag-Along Sale, the maximum number of Tag-Along Shares that may be sold by such Minority Stockholder as determined in accordance with Section 5(a) assuming each Minority Stockholder has exercised its rights under this Section 5, the name of the proposed Third Party Purchaser, the consideration and other material terms offered by such Third Party Purchaser and a representation that the proposed Third Party Purchaser has been informed of the Minority Stockholders’ rights under this Section 5. The rights provided pursuant to this Section 5 must be exercised by each Minority Stockholder within ten (10) days following receipt of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Exercise Period”), by giving written notice to the Permira Sellers (with a copy to the Company) indicating such Minority Stockholder’s desire to exercise, in whole or in part, its Tag-Along Rights and specifying the number of Tag-Along Shares to be sold by such Minority Stockholder in the Tag-Along Sale.

(c) Conditions to Tag-Along Sale. The rights and obligations of each Minority Stockholder pursuant to Section 5 are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) A Minority Stockholder shall not be required to provide any representations or warranties in connection with a Tag-Along Sale other than representations and warranties concerning such Minority Stockholder’s valid ownership of its shares of Common Stock free of all Encumbrances, and such Minority Stockholder’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate the sale pursuant to Section 5(a).

(ii) In the event that the Permira Sellers are required to provide representations, warranties or indemnities in connection with the Tag-Along Sale (other than representations, warranties or indemnities concerning the Permira Seller’s valid ownership of their shares of Common Stock free of all Encumbrances, and the Permira Seller’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate the sale without violating any other agreement) and the Permira Sellers are required to indemnify the party or parties transacting with the Permira Sellers in such Tag-Along Sale, then each Minority Stockholder shall indemnify the Permira Sellers (or shall provide the same indemnity as the Permira Sellers to the party or parties transacting with the Permira Sellers in the Tag-Along Sale) to the extent of the lesser of (A) its pro rata share of such indemnification payments (based upon the total consideration received by Minority Stockholder divided by the total consideration received by all sellers in such Tag-Along Sale) and (B) the total proceeds actually received by such Minority Stockholder as consideration for its shares of Common Stock and Option Stock in such Tag-Along Sale. In any such event, such liability shall be several and not joint with any other Person.

(d) The requirements of this Section 5 shall not apply to (i) proposed Transfers of Common Stock by the Permira Stockholders in a transaction or series of related transactions which in the aggregate represents less than or equal to 10% of the shares of Common Stock held by the Permira Stockholders as of such transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) Transfers to any Affiliate of any Permira Seller or any director or officer of the Company, (iii) Transfers to a Permitted Transferee or (iv) any Transfer of Common Stock required to be made by a Dragged Stockholder pursuant to a Drag-Along Sale. The requirements of this Section 5 are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other restrictions on Transfers of Common Stock contained in this Agreement.

(e) If a Minority Stockholder exercises its Tag-Along Rights under this Section 5: (i) the closing of the purchase of the shares of Common Stock and Option Stock with respect to which such rights have been exercised shall take place concurrently with the closing of the sale of the Permira Sellers’ shares of Common Stock, and (ii) such Minority Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure any Governmental Authorization required to be obtained by such Minority Stockholder and shall provide any information which may be needed from such Minority Stockholder in connection therewith, to comply as soon as reasonably practicable with all applicable Laws and to take all such other actions and to execute such additional documents as are necessary or appropriate in order to consummate the Tag-Along Sale.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5 shall also apply to any shares of Common Stock acquired by or issued to any Stockholder after the date of this Agreement, including any Option Stock.

(g) For purposes of clarification, when used in this Section 5, the phrases “same per share consideration” and “equivalent terms and conditions” shall not include transaction, banking, monitoring or service fees or any other fees of a similar nature paid to the Permira Sellers whether in connection with such Tag-Along Sale or otherwise or any employment, consulting, change of control, non-compete or any other fees of a similar nature paid to the Minority Stockholder, whether in connection with such Tag-Along Sale or otherwise.

6. Company Call Rights on Termination of Management Stockholder’s Employment.

(a) If, a Management Stockholder’s employment with the Company (and/or, if applicable, its Subsidiaries) is terminated (I) by the Company for Cause or (II) by such Management Stockholder other than for Good Reason, death or Disability within two (2) years following the Effective Time (any of the foregoing a “Section 6(a) Call Event”), then the Company shall have the right to purchase from the applicable Management Stockholder, and the applicable Management Stockholder agrees to sell and transfer to the Company, all of the Company Stock then held by such Management Stockholder at a purchase price equal to the lesser of (I) Cost and (II) the Fair Market Value of such Company Stock on the date of termination of such Management Stockholder’s employment or the date of an impermissible Transfer constituting a Section 6(a) Call Event, as applicable; and

(b) If, a Management Stockholder’s employment with the Company (and/or, if applicable, its Subsidiaries) is terminated (A) by the Company other than for Cause, (B) due to the Management Stockholder’s death or Disability, (C) by such Management Stockholder for Good Reason or (D) by voluntary resignation of such Management Stockholder other than for Good Reason on or after the second anniversary of the Effective Time (each a “Section 6(b) Call Event” and together with a Section 6(a) Call Event, a “Call Event”), then the Company shall have the right to purchase from such Management Stockholder, and such Management Stockholder agrees to sell and transfer to the Company, all of the Company Stock then held by such Management Stockholder at a purchase price equal to the Fair Market Value of such Company Stock on the date of termination of such Management Stockholder’s employment.

(c) The Company shall have a period of two hundred and ten (210) days following the later of (A) the date of any Call Event, (B) with respect to any Option Stock, the last date of the applicable Management Stockholder’s exercise of his or her Options and (C) the date of discovery of an impermissible Transfer constituting a Section 6(a) Call Event, in which to give notice in writing to the applicable Management Stockholder of the Company’s election to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b), as applicable (a “Call Notice”). The completion of the purchases pursuant to the foregoing shall take place at the principal office of the Company by the later of (x) the two hundred and tenth (210^th) day after the date of such Call Event and (y) ten (10) days after the determination of Fair Market Value as provided in Annex A hereto; provided, that the deadline for payment by the Company pursuant to this Section 6 may be extended as required from time to time by the Company’s debt financing arrangements (as determined in the sole discretion of the Board) or if the Management Stockholder has failed to comply with Section 6(d). The price, if any, payable as described in this Section 6 shall be paid by delivery to the applicable Management Stockholder of a certified bank check or checks in the appropriate amount payable to the order of the applicable Management Stockholder against

delivery of certificates or other instruments representing the Company Stock so purchased, appropriately endorsed or executed by the applicable Management Stockholder or its authorized representative. The Company may choose to have a designee purchase any Company Stock elected by it to be purchased hereunder so long as the Company shall bear any reasonable costs and expenses of the applicable Management Stockholder in connection with the sale to such designee that such Management Stockholder would not have otherwise incurred in connection with a sale to the Company. All references to the Company in this Section 6 shall refer to such designee as the context requires.

(d) Any payment pursuant to this Section 6 to a Management Stockholder whose employment agreement with the Company does not contain a non-competition covenant shall be conditioned on his or her signing the non-competition agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

7. Treasury Regulation 1.83-2 Election. Except as the Company may otherwise agree in writing, each Management Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that he will make an election provided pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.83-2 with respect to the Common Stock acquired by such Management Stockholder (including upon Exercise of an Option) during the two (2) years following the Effective Time and such Management Stockholder further covenants and agrees that he will furnish the Company with copies of the forms of election such Management Stockholder files within thirty (30) days after the date he or she acquires any such Common Stock, and with evidence that such election has been filed in a timely manner.

8. Preemptive Rights.

(a) Each Preemptive Stockholder shall, subject to the terms of this Section 8, have the right (the “Preemptive Right”) to purchase, at its respective sole discretion, from the Company additional shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities in the amounts and at the times and prices provided for in this Section 8, which right shall be exercisable from time to time upon each issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8, upon each issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities, each Preemptive Stockholder shall have the Preemptive Right to purchase from the Company a proportion of the shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities being offered, which proportion shall be calculated as follows: (i) with respect to issuances of shares of Common Stock, a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Preemptive Stockholder on a fully diluted basis and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock on a fully diluted basis and (ii) with respect to issuances of Equity Securities (other than Common Stock), that number of such securities which would allow such Preemptive Stockholder to maintain the same percentage ownership on a fully diluted basis of all shares of Common Stock after giving effect to such issuance and assuming that all such securities (and all other outstanding Equity Securities previously issued and not earlier converted, exchanged or exercised) have been converted, exchanged or exercised, as the case may be, in full in accordance with their terms as of the date of their issuance (assuming for these purposes that such securities are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable as of such date).

(b) In the event a Preemptive Stockholder elects to exercise its Preemptive Rights under this Section 8, the purchase price per share of Common Stock or other Equity Security shall be equal to the sale price per share of Common Stock or of such Equity Security sold.

(c) A Preemptive Stockholder’s rights and the Company’s obligations under this Section 8 shall be subject to the requirement that the Company give each Preemptive Stockholder five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (the “Preemptive Offer Notice”) of its intention to issue shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities. The Preemptive Offer Notice shall set forth the proposed purchaser or purchasers and the terms of such transaction, and shall contain sufficient detail of such terms to allow the Preemptive Stockholders to determine whether and when to exercise any of their rights under this Section 8. If a Preemptive Stockholder desires to exercise its Preemptive Rights under this Section 8, such Preemptive Stockholder shall give written notice to the Company of its intent to exercise its right within ten (10) days after receipt by such Preemptive Stockholder of the Preemptive Offer Notice. The Company shall issue the required number of shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities against delivery of the purchase price therefor under this Section 8 on the same date as the other purchasers purchase shares of Common Stock or such securities. A Preemptive Stockholder shall have the right to exercise its Preemptive Rights in whole or in part as to each transaction giving rise to the right. In the event that the transaction set forth in the Preemptive Offer Notice shall not be consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after deliver of the Preemptive Offer Notice, the Company shall be required to give a new notice of such transaction, and any Preemptive Stockholder’s original notice of its intent to exercise any right under this Section 8 or failure to give notice shall be of no further force or effect.

(d) The provisions of Section 8 hereof shall not apply to the issuance of shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities (i) upon the exercise of any Company Option, warrants or other convertible securities issued or granted, or any other Common Stock, issued under any employee stock purchase plan or similar benefit program or agreement of the Company; (ii) in connection with a transaction of the type described in or subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, (iii) in connection with an IPO, (iv) in consideration for the acquisition of another Person’s business by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (whether by acquisition of stock or assets, or by merger, consolidation or other similar transaction), the acquisition of any stock or assets of any Person or the formation of a joint venture, (v) to the current or future officers, employees or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including transfers pursuant to this Agreement) (or to any entity controlled by any such officers, employees or directors), (vi) as a dividend or distribution or any subdivision or combination of securities or (vii) to the Company’s or any Subsidiaries’ lenders in connection with the incurrence, renewal or maintenance of indebtedness (including funded indebtedness).

(e) Each Preemptive Stockholder, if such Preemptive Stockholder is exercising Preemptive Rights pursuant to this Section 8, shall, as a condition to such exercise, also be required to purchase the same proportionate amount of any other securities that the purchasers of such shares of Common Stock or Options purchased in connection with the issuance of the securities subject to the Preemptive Rights.

(f) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 8, if the Board reasonably determines that there is a substantial need of the Company to issue securities of the Company that would otherwise be required to be offered to the Preemptive Stockholders under this Section 8 prior to such issuance, the Company may issue such securities without first complying with this Section 8; provided, that within thirty (30) days after such issuance, the Company offers each Preemptive Stockholder the opportunity to purchase such number of securities that such Preemptive Stockholder would have been entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 8 by sending written notice to the Preemptive Stockholders, which notice shall contain the information required under Section 8(c). In the event of an offer made by the Company pursuant to this Section 8(f), the timing and procedures for the exercise and consummation of such offer shall be the same as those set forth in this Section 8, with appropriate modifications to reflect the post-issuance delivery of the notice as contemplated in this Section 8(f).

9. Board of Directors.

(a) The number of directors (the “Directors”) constituting the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), as fixed from time to time by the Board in accordance with this Agreement and the bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”), shall initially be six (6). Notwithstanding any provision in the Bylaws, the number of directors constituting the Board shall not be changed without the consent of the Permira Stockholders. At each annual meeting of the Stockholders, and at each special meeting of the Stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors of the Company, and at any time at which the Stockholders shall have the right to, or shall, vote for, or consent in writing to, the election of directors of the Company, then, and in each such event, the Stockholders shall vote all of the shares of Common Stock owned by them or any of their respective Affiliates for, or consent in writing with respect to such shares in favor of, the election of the following Persons to the Board:

(i) one Director who shall be the chief executive officer of the Company (the “CEO Director”), who shall initially be ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇;

(ii) three Directors who shall be designated and approved by Permira IV Continuing L.P.1 (the “Permira Representative Directors”), who shall initially be ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇;
