Any attempted Transfer of Shares by a Stockholder not permitted by this Section 2.1 shall be null and void, and the Company shall not in any way give effect to such impermissible Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the H&F Stockholders may Transfer all or any portion of its Shares at any time without restriction under this Section 2.1. After the IPO Lock-Up Period, there shall be no restrictions on a Transfer of Shares pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)Transferred Shares Subject to Transfer Restrictions. Except for Transfers (i) to the Company, (ii) pursuant to an effective Registration Statement filed with the SEC or (iii) by any of the H&F Stockholders to its partners, members or other investors after the initial Public Offering, any Shares Transferred by a Stockholder pursuant to this Section 2.1 prior to the expiration of the IPO Lock-Up Period shall remain subject to the Transfer restrictions of this Agreement and each intended transferee pursuant to this this Section 2.1 shall execute and deliver to the Company a Joinder Agreement, which shall evidence such transferee’s agreement that the Shares intended to be transferred shall continue to be subject to this Agreement and that as to such Shares the transferee shall be bound by the restrictions of this Agreement as a Stockholder hereunder.

2.2Corporate Governance.

(a)Board of Directors. The Company hereby agrees that:

(i) Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Executive Stockholders and the H&F Stockholders, and subject to applicable law (including laws relating to fiduciary duties) and the rules and regulations of the applicable stock exchange:

(A)for so long as the Company’s certificate of incorporation shall provide for the division of directors into three classes, the Company shall nominate the chief executive officer of the Company (the “Chief Executive Officer”) to serve on the Board of Directors as a Class III director (or such other class of director as the Board of Directors shall designate). In the event the Company’s certificate of incorporation shall not provide for the division of directors into three classes, the Company shall nominate the Chief Executive Officer for election as a director as part of any slate that is included in the proxy statement (or consent

solicitation or similar document) of the Company relating to the election of directors;

(B)for so long as the Company’s certificate of incorporation shall provide for the division of directors into three classes, the Company shall nominate to serve on the Board of Directors as a Class II director (or, with the approval of the Board of Directors, such other class of directors as the Executive / Read Trust Stockholders shall designate) one (1) individual designated by the Executive / Read Trust Stockholders holding a majority of the aggregate Shares then held by such Stockholders for so long as such Stockholders collectively hold at least five percent (5%) of the shares of outstanding Common Stock. In the event the Company’s certificate of incorporation shall not provide for the division of directors into three classes, the Company shall nominate to serve on the Board of Directors one (1) individual designated by the Executive / Read Trust Stockholders holding a majority of the aggregate Shares then held by such Stockholders for so long as such Stockholders collectively hold at least five percent (5%) of the shares of outstanding Common Stock as part of any slate that is included in the proxy statement (or consent solicitation or similar document) of the Company relating to the election of directors (the individual, if any, nominated pursuant to this Section 2.2(a)(i)(B), the “Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee”). ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Read, Jr. shall be the initial Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee and shall be the Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee for so long as he serves as the Vice Chairman of the Company; and

(C)the Company shall nominate to serve on the Board of Directors a number of individuals designated by the H&F Stockholders such that, upon the election of all such individuals and taking into account any director continuing to serve on the Board of Directors without need for re-election who was nominated by the H&F Stockholders pursuant to this Section 2.2(a)(i)(C), the number of directors designated by the H&F Stockholders shall equal (x) the total members of the Board of Directors of the Company, multiplied by (y) the percentage of outstanding Common Stock held from time to time by the H&F Stockholders, which number shall be rounded up to the next highest whole number of directors (the “H&F Director Nominees” and, together with the Executive/Read Trust Director Nominee, the “Stockholder Nominees”); provided that in no event shall the number of H&F Director Nominees, together with the Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee, if any, and the Chief Executive Officer, exceed the number of directors permitted by the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws. For so long as the directors on the Board of Directors of the Company are divided into three classes, such H&F Director Nominees shall be apportioned by the H&F Stockholders among such classes so as to maintain the number of H&F Director Nominees in each class as nearly equal as possible.

(ii) The Company shall include as part of the slate that is included in the proxy statement (or consent solicitation or similar document) of the Company relating to the election of directors, the Chief Executive Officer (if such proxy statement (or consent solicitation or similar document) relates to the election of directors of the class to which the Chief Executive Officer belongs pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(A)), the Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee designated for nomination pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(B) (if such proxy statement (or consent solicitation or similar document) relates to the election of directors of the class to which the Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee belongs pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(B)) and the H&F Director Nominees and shall provide the highest level of support for the election of each person nominated pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) as it provides to any other individual standing for election as a director of the Company as part of such Company slate of directors.

(iii.) In the event that a Stockholder Nominee shall cease to serve as a director for any reason (other than the failure of the stockholders of the Company to elect such individual as a director), the Persons entitled to designate such Stockholder Nominee pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(B) or (C) shall have the right to appoint another Stockholder Nominee to fill the vacancy resulting therefrom. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the failure of the stockholders of the Company to elect any Stockholder Nominee shall not affect the right of the Persons entitled to designate such Stockholder Nominee pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(B) or (C) to designate a Stockholder Nominee for election pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i)(B) or (C) in connection with any future election of directors of the Company.

(iv) Upon the classification of the Board of Directors into three classes, the initial Chief Executive Director shall be ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the initial Executive / Read Trust Director Nominee shall be ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Read, Jr. and the initial H&F Director Nominees shall be ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇. None of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ shall be deemed to be an initial Stockholder Nominee. Upon the classification of the Board of Directors into three classes, the initial Class I directors shall consist of ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the initial Class II directors shall consist of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Read, Jr., ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, and initial Class III directors shall consist of ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇.

(b)Each Stockholder hereby agrees with the Company, severally and not jointly, that for so long as any Stockholder is entitled to designate a Stockholder Nominee pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) such Stockholder shall vote all of its Common Stock in favor of each individual standing for election as a director of the Company as part of the Company’s slate of directors that is included in the proxy statement (or consent solicitation or similar document) of the Company relating to the election of directors and whose election the Board of the Directors has recommended.

2.3Confidentiality. Each Stockholder shall maintain the confidentiality of any confidential and proprietary information of the Company and its Subsidiaries (“Proprietary Information”) using the same standard of care, but in no event less than reasonable care, as it applies to its own confidential information, except (i) for any Proprietary Information which is

publicly available (other than as a result of dissemination by such Stockholder in breach of this Agreement) or a matter of public knowledge generally, (ii) if the release of such Proprietary Information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or other applicable law, rule, regulation, legal or judicial process or audit or inquiries by a regulator, bank examiner or self-regulatory organization (collectively, “Law”), following delivery of prior written notice to the Company (to the extent reasonably practicable and permitted under applicable Law), or (iii) for Proprietary Information that was known to such Stockholder on a non-confidential basis, without, to such Stockholders’ knowledge, breach of any third party’s confidentiality obligations to the Company in respect thereof, prior to its disclosure by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE III

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

3.1Shelf Registration.

(a)Filing. Upon the one-year anniversary of an initial Public Offering (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the H&F Stockholders and the Executive / Read Trust Stockholders), subject to the Company’s rights under Section 3.1(c) and the limitations set forth in Section 3.1(d), the Company shall (i) promptly (but in any event no later than twenty (20) days prior to the date such Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective) give written notice (a “Shelf Registration Notice”) of the proposed registration to all Holders and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to file as soon as reasonably practicable after such anniversary with the SEC and to cause to become effective under the 1933 Act a Shelf Registration Statement (which such Shelf Registration Statement shall be designated by the Company as an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement if the Company is a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer at the time of filing such Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC) for all Registrable Securities held by the H&F Stockholders and the Executive / Read Trust Stockholders (or, if an H&F Stockholder or Executive / Read Trust Stockholder determines to not include all of its Registrable Securities therein, such lesser amount as such Stockholder shall request to the Company in writing), together with (x) all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders as are specified in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after such Shelf Registration Notice is given (each such Holder, and each H&F Stockholder and each Executive / Read Trust Stockholder, as the case may be, a “Shelf Holder”) and (y) all or such portion of the shares of any Third Party Holder that the Company determines may register securities in such registration (each such Third Party Holder, a “Third Party Shelf Holder”); provided, however, that if the Company is permitted by applicable Law to add selling stockholders to a Shelf Registration Statement without filing a post-effective amendment, a Holder may request the inclusion of additional Registrable Securities in such Shelf Registration Statement at any time or from time to time, and the Company shall add such Registrable Securities to the Shelf Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable, and such Holder shall be deemed a Shelf Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the Company be required to file, or maintain the effectiveness of, a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) at any time if Form S-3 is not available to the Company at such time.

(b)Continued Effectiveness. Except as otherwise agreed by the H&F Initiating Holders, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3.1(a) continuously effective under the 1933 Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by the Shelf Holders until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities registered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) such shorter period as the Shelf Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities of the H&F Stockholders that are registered on such Shelf Registration Statement (the “Majority Shelf Holders”) may determine.

(c)Suspension of Filing or Registration. If the Company shall furnish to the Shelf Holders a certificate signed by a Chief Executive Officer or equivalent senior executive of the Company stating that the filing, effectiveness or continued use of the Shelf Registration Statement would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, then the Company shall have a period of not more than sixty (60) days or such longer period as the Majority Shelf Holders shall consent to in writing, within which to delay the filing or effectiveness (but not the preparation) of such Shelf Registration Statement or, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement that has been declared effective, to suspend the use by Shelf Holders of such Shelf Registration Statement (in each case, a “Shelf Suspension”); provided, however, that, unless consented to in writing by the Majority Shelf Holders, the Company shall not be permitted to exercise more than two (2) Shelf Suspensions pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) and Demand Delays pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(ii) in the aggregate, or aggregate Shelf Suspensions pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) and Demand Delays pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(ii) of more than one hundred and twenty (120) days, in each case, during any twelve-month (12) period. Each Shelf Holder shall keep confidential the fact that a Shelf Suspension is in effect, the certificate referred to above and its contents for the permitted duration of the Shelf Suspension or until otherwise notified by the Company, except (A) for disclosure to such Shelf Holder’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by Law. In the case of a Shelf Suspension that occurs after the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Shelf Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus for the permitted duration of such Shelf Suspension in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon receipt of the certificate referred to above. The Company shall immediately notify the Shelf Holders upon the termination of any Shelf Suspension, and (i) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement that has not been declared effective, shall promptly thereafter file the Shelf Registration Statement and use its reasonable best efforts to have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective under the 1933 Act and (ii) in the case of an effective Shelf Registration Statement, shall amend or supplement the Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any material misstatement or omission prior to the expiration of the Shelf Suspension and furnish to the Shelf Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Shelf Holders may reasonably request. The Company agrees, if necessary, to supplement

or make amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement if required by the registration form used by the Company for the Shelf Registration Statement or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the 1933 Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or as may reasonably be requested by the Majority Shelf Holders.

(d)Shelf Take-Downs.

(i) Initiation of Shelf Take-Downs. If a Shelf Registration Statement has been filed and is effective, then (A) on or before the one-year anniversary of the initial Public Offering, the H&F Initiating Holders, and only the H&F Initiating Holders, may from time to time initiate a Shelf-Take Down, subject to compliance with the requirements of this Section 3.1(d) (if and to the extent applicable to such Shelf Take-Down) and (B) after the one-year anniversary of the initial Public Offering, any of the Shelf Holders may from time to time initiate a Shelf Take-Down, subject to compliance with the requirements of this Section 3.1(d) (if and to the extent applicable to such Shelf Take-Down); provided, however, that (x) on or before the one-year anniversary of the initial Public Offering, only the H&F Initiating Holders, and after the one-year anniversary of the initial Public Offering, only the Initiating Holders, in each case, as applicable, may request an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down.

(ii) Underwritten Shelf Take Downs. Subject to Section 3.1(d)(i), any Initiating Holder (but only an Initiating Holder) with respect to a Shelf Take-Down (including any Restricted Shelf Take-Down) may elect in a written demand delivered to the Company (an “Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice”) for such Shelf Take-Down to be in the form of an underwritten offering (an “Underwritten Shelf Take-Down”), and the Company shall, if so requested, file and effect an amendment or supplement of the Shelf Registration Statement for such purpose as soon as practicable; provided, that any such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down shall be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 3.2, a Demand Registration. The Initiating Holder that delivers such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice shall have the right to select the underwriter or underwriters to administer such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down; provided, that such underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. With respect to any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down (including any Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down), in the event that a Shelf Holder otherwise would be entitled to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down pursuant to Section 3.1(d)(iii) or Section 3.1(d)(iv), as the case may be, the right of such Shelf Holder to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down shall be conditioned upon such Shelf Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Shelf Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The Company shall, together with all Shelf Holders and Third Party Shelf Holders of Registrable Securities of the Company that are permitted to distribute their securities through such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected in accordance with this Section 3.1(d)(ii). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.1 (other than Section 3.1(d)(iv)), if the underwriter shall advise the Company that marketing factors (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of

the number of shares to be underwritten in an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, then the Company shall so advise all Shelf Holders and Third Party Shelf Holders of Registrable Securities that are permitted to, and have requested to, participate in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down shall be allocated pro rata among such Shelf Holders and Third Party Shelf Holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Shelf Holders and Third Party Shelf Holders at the time of such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down; provided, that any Registrable Securities thereby allocated to a Shelf Holder that exceed such Shelf Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Shelf Holders in like manner. No Registrable Securities excluded from an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such underwritten offering.

(iii) Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs. The Initiating Holder shall indicate in any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice they deliver to the Company pursuant to Section 3.1(d)(iii) whether it intends for such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down to involve a customary “road show” (including an “electronic road show”) or other substantial marketing effort by the underwriters over a period of at least 48 hours (a “Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down”). Upon receipt of an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice indicating that such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down will be a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, the Company shall promptly (but in any event no later than ten (10) days prior to the expected date of such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down) give written notice of such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down to all other Shelf Holders of Registrable Securities under such Shelf Registration Statement and any such Shelf Holders requesting inclusion in such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down must respond in writing within five (5) days after the receipt of such notice. Each such Shelf Holder that timely delivers any such request shall be permitted to sell in such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down subject to the terms and conditions of Section 3.1(d)(ii).

(iv) Restricted Shelf Take-Downs. In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 3.1(d)(iii) with respect to any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down that is not a Marketed Underwritten Shelf-Take-Down, for any Initiating Holder to initiate such an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down (any such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, a “Restricted Shelf Take-Down”), such Initiating Holder shall provide written notice (a “Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice”) of such Restricted Shelf Take-Down to all other Shelf Holders as far in advance of the completion of such Restricted Shelf Take-Down as shall be reasonably practicable in light of the circumstances applicable to such Restricted Shelf Take-Down (but in no event less than three (3) hours in advance of the completion of such Restricted Shelf Take-Down), which Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice shall set forth (1) the total number of Registrable Securities expected to be offered and sold in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down, (2) the expected plan of distribution of such Restricted Shelf Take-Down, (3) the fraction, expressed as a percentage, determined by dividing the number of Registrable Securities anticipated to be sold in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down by the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holder (the

“Shelf Take-Down Percentage”), (4) an invitation to each other Shelf Holder to elect (such other Shelf Holders who make such an election being “Shelf Take-Down Participating Holders,” and, together with the Initiating Holder and all other Persons who otherwise are transferring, or have exercised a contractual or other right to transfer, Registrable Securities in connection with such Restricted Shelf Take-Down, the “Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders”) to include in the Restricted Shelf Take-Down Registrable Securities held by such Shelf Take-Down Participating Holder (not in any event to exceed the Shelf Take-Down Percentage of the total number of IPO Entity Shares held by such Shelf Take-Down Participating Holder) and (5) the action or actions required (including the timing thereof) in connection with such Restricted Shelf Take-Down with respect to each such other Shelf Holder that elects to exercise such right (including the delivery of one or more certificates representing Registrable Securities of such other Shelf Holder to be sold in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down). Upon delivery of a Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice, each such other Shelf Holder may elect to sell Registrable Securities in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down, at the same price per Registrable Security and pursuant to the same terms and conditions with respect to payment for the Registrable Securities as agreed to by such Initiating Holder, by sending an irrevocable written notice (a “Restricted Shelf Take-Down Participation Notice”) to such Initiating Holder within the time period specified in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice, indicating its, his or her election to sell up to the number of Registrable Securities in the Restricted Shelf Take-Down specified by such other Shelf Holder in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Participation Notice (such specified number not in any event to exceed the Shelf Take-Down Percentage of the total number of Registrable Securities held by such other Shelf Holder). Following the time period specified in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice, each Shelf Take-Down Participating Holder that has delivered a Restricted Shelf Take-Down Participation Notice shall be permitted to sell in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down on the terms and conditions set forth in the Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice, concurrently with such Initiating Holder and the other Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders, the number of Registrable Securities calculated as follows:

(A)first there shall be allocated to each Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holder a number of Registrable Securities equal to the lesser of (I) the maximum number of Registrable Securities such Restricted Take-Down Selling Holder has elected to sell in the Restricted Shelf Take-Down in its, his or her Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice or Restricted Shelf Take-Down Participation Notice and (II) the number of Registrable Securities determined by multiplying (x) the number of Registrable Securities to be sold in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down by (y) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Registrable Securities owned by such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holder and the denominator of which is the total Registrable Securities owned by all Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders (the “Pro Rata Shelf Take-Down Share”); and

(B)any remaining Registrable Securities to be sold in such Restricted Shelf Take-Down shall be allocated to the Restricted Shelf Take-Down

Selling Holders that elected to sell in excess of their Pro Rata Shelf Take-Down Share, pro rata to such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders based upon such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders’ relative Pro Rata Shelf Take-Down Shares, or as such Restricted Shelf Take-Down Selling Holders may otherwise agree in writing among themselves.

For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that in order to be entitled to exercise its, his or her right to sell Registrable Securities in a Restricted Shelf Take-Down pursuant to this Section 3.1(d)(iv), each Shelf Take-Down Participating Holder must agree, on a several and not joint basis, to make the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements, if any, as the Initiating Holder agrees to make in connection with the Restricted Shelf Take-Down. Notwithstanding the delivery of any Restricted Shelf Take-Down Notice, all determinations as to whether to complete any Restricted Shelf Take-Down and as to the timing, manner, price and other terms of any Restricted Shelf Take-Down shall be at the sole discretion of the Initiating Holder. Each of the Initiating Holders agrees to reasonably cooperate with each of the other Shelf Holders to establish notice, delivery and documentation procedures and measures to facilitate such other Shelf Holder’s participation in future potential Restricted Shelf Take-Downs by such Initiating Holder pursuant to this Section 3.1(d)(iv).

3.2Demand Registration.

(a)Holders’ Demand for Registration. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.2(d), if the Company shall receive from an Initiating Holder a written demand that the Company effect any registration (a “Demand Registration”) of Registrable Securities held by such Holders having a reasonably anticipated net aggregate offering price (after deduction of underwriter commissions and offering expenses) of at least $10,000,000, the Company will:

(i) promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days prior to the date such registration becomes effective under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders; and

(ii) use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration as soon as practicable as will permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Initiating Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such demand, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holders joining in such demand as are specified in a written demand received by the Company within five (5) days after such written notice is given; provided that the Company shall not be obligated to file any Registration Statement or other disclosure document pursuant to this Section 3.2 (but shall be obligated to continue to prepare such Registration Statement or other disclosure document) if the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by a Chief Executive Officer or equivalent senior executive of the Company, stating that the filing or effectiveness of such Registration Statement would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, in which case the Company shall have an additional period (each, a “Demand Delay”) of not more than sixty (60) days (or such longer period as may be agreed upon by the Initiating Holders) within which to file such Registration

Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not exercise more than two (2) Demand Delays pursuant to this Section 3.2(a)(ii) and Shelf Suspensions pursuant to Section 3.1(c) in the aggregate, or aggregate Demand Delays pursuant to this Section 3.2(a)(ii) and Shelf Suspensions pursuant to Section 3.1(c) of more than one hundred and twenty (120) days, in each case, during any twelve-month (12) month period. Each Holder shall keep confidential the fact that a Demand Delay is in effect, the certificate referred to above and its contents for the permitted duration of the Demand Delay or until otherwise notified by the Company, except (A) for disclosure to such Holder’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by Law.

(b)Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their demand by means of an underwritten offering, they shall so advise the Company as part of their demand made pursuant to this Section 3.2, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.2(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The Company shall, together with all holders of Registrable Securities of the Company proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected by a majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders and reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2, if the underwriter shall advise the Company that marketing factors (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that have requested to participate in such offering, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated pro rata among such Holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Holders at the time of filing the Registration Statement; provided that the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting; provided, further, that any Registrable Securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner. No Registrable Securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. If the underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the Company may include securities for its own account (or for the account of any other Persons) in such registration if the underwriter so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities would not thereby be limited.

(c)Effective Registration. The Company shall be deemed to have effected a Demand Registration if the Registration Statement pursuant to such registration is declared effective by the SEC and remains effective for not less than one hundred eighty

(180) days (or such shorter period as will terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn), or, if such Registration Statement relates to an underwritten offering, such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriters, a prospectus is required by Law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer (the applicable period, the “Demand Period”). No Demand Registration shall be deemed to have been effected if (i) during the Demand Period such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court or (ii) the conditions specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied other than by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable underwriting agreement by a participating Holder.

(d)Restrictions on Registration. Notwithstanding the rights and obligations set forth in Section 3.1 and 3.2, in no event shall the Company be obligated to take any action to effect any Demand Registration:

(i) at the request of any Executive / Read Trust Initiating Holder until the one-year anniversary of an initial Public Offering;

(ii) at the request of the Executive / Read Trust Initiating Holders after the Company has effected three (3) Demand Registrations at the request of the Executive / Read Trust Initiating Holders (collectively) (including any Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs); and

(iii) in no event shall the Company be obligated to take any action to effect more than four (4) Demand Registrations (not including any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down that is not a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down) in any twelve (12) month period.

3.3Piggyback Registration.

(a)If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to register any of its equity securities, either for its own account or for the account of security holders of the Company, under the 1933 Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than (1) in a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, (2) a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or such other similar successor forms then in effect under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) or any other form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, (3) a registration pursuant to which the Company is offering to exchange its own securities for other securities, (4) a Registration Statement relating solely to dividend reinvestment or similar plans, (5) a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to which only the initial purchasers and subsequent transferees of debt securities or preferred stock of the Company or any Subsidiary that are convertible or exchangeable for IPO Entity Shares and that are initially issued pursuant to Rule 144A and/or Regulation S (or any successor provision) of the 1933 Act may resell such notes or preferred stock and sell the IPO Entity Shares

into which such notes or preferred stock may be converted or exchanged or (6) a registration pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2), the Company will:

(i) promptly (but in no event less than fifteen (15) days before the effective date of the relevant Registration Statement) give to each Holder written notice thereof; and

(ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under state securities laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company by any Holder or Holders, except as set forth in Section 3.3(b).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.3 shall not apply in respect of any Holder prior to the one-year anniversary of an initial Public Offering, unless (x) one or more of the H&F Stockholders elect to participate in such registration or (y) the H&F Stockholders, in their sole discretion, elect by written notice to the Company for this Section 3.3 to apply to the Registrable Securities of any one or more other Holders specified in such notice.

(b)Underwriting. Subject to the last sentence of Section 3.3(a), if the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to dispose of their Registrable Securities through such underwriting, together with the Company and the other parties distributing their securities through such underwriting, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.3, if the underwriters shall advise the Company that marketing factors (including, without limitation, an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, subject to the terms of this Section 3.3. The Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that have requested to participate in such offering, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the following manner: first, to the Company and second, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders; provided, that any Registrable Securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner. No such reduction shall (i) reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its own account to be included in the registration and underwriting, or (ii) reduce the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the registration below twenty-five percent (25%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such offering does not include shares of any other selling security holders, in which event any or all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders

may be excluded in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. No securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration.

(c)Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 3.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.

3.4Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with all registrations effected pursuant to Section 3.1, Section 3.2 or Section 3.3 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay stock transfer taxes or underwriters’ discounts or selling commissions relating to Registrable Securities.

3.5Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this ARTICLE III to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a)prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, and keep such Registration Statement effective for (x) the lesser of one hundred eighty (180) days or until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution relating thereto or (y) for such longer period as may be prescribed herein;

3.6Indemnification.

(a)The Company will, and does hereby undertake to, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities and each of such Holder’s officers, directors, trustees, employees, partners, managers, members, stockholders, beneficiaries, affiliates and agents and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder, within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, with respect

to any registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this ARTICLE III, and each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls any underwriter, of the Registrable Securities held by or issuable to such Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, or other federal or state law arising out of or based on (A) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any prospectus, offering circular, free writing prospectus or other similar document (including any related Registration Statement, notification, or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification, compliance or sale effected pursuant to this ARTICLE III, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made, (B) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification, compliance or sale, or (C) any failure to register or qualify Registrable Securities in any state where the Company or its agents have affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing (including pursuant to Section 3.5(k)) that the Company (the undertaking of any underwriter being attributed to the Company) will undertake such registration or qualification on behalf of the Holders of such Registrable Securities (provided that in such instance the Company shall not be so liable if it has undertaken its reasonable best efforts to so register or qualify such Registrable Securities) and will reimburse, as incurred, each such Holder, each such underwriter and each such director, officer, trustee, employee, partner, manager, member, stockholder, beneficiary, affiliate, agent and controlling person, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use therein.

(b)Each Holder (if Registrable Securities held by or issuable to such Holder are included in such registration, qualification, compliance or sale pursuant to this ARTICLE III) does hereby undertake to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its officers, directors, employees, stockholders, affiliates and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls any underwriter, of the Company’s securities covered by such a Registration Statement, and each other Holder, each of such other Holder’s officers, directors, employees, partners, stockholders, affiliates and agents and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, free writing prospectus or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not

misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Company, each such underwriter, each such other Holder, and each such officer, director, trustee, employee, partner, stockholder, beneficiary, affiliate, agent and controlling person of the foregoing, for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) was made in such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, free writing prospectus or other document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the aggregate liability of each Holder hereunder shall be limited to the gross proceeds after underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. It is understood and agreed that the indemnification obligations of each Holder pursuant to any underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any Registration Statement shall be limited to the obligations contained in this Section 3.6(b).

(c)Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.6 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim as to which indemnification may be sought promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge thereof, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be subject to approval by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at the Indemnifying Party’s expense if representation of such Indemnified Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this ARTICLE III, except to the extent that such failure to give notice materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such claim or any such litigation. An Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, may, without the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Indemnified Party of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation and (ii) does not include any recovery (including a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party) other than monetary damages, and provided that any sums payable in connection with such settlement are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party.

(d)In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in case indemnification is prohibited or limited by law, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and

Indemnified Party in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and such Indemnified Party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such actions; provided, however, that, in any case, (i) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the gross proceeds after underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation and (ii) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e)The indemnities provided in this Section 3.6 shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by such Holder.

3.7Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this ARTICLE III.

3.8Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights contained in this ARTICLE III with respect to the registration of the Registrable Securities may be assigned or otherwise conveyed by a Holder pursuant to a transfer permitted under ARTICLE II.

3.9Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain, and hereby waives any right to seek, an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this ARTICLE III.

3.10Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the H&F Stockholders, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder to (i) require the Company to effect a registration or (ii) include any securities in any registration filed under Section 3.1, Section 3.2 or Section 3.3, unless, in each case, under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not diminish the amount of Registrable Securities to be sold or proposed to be sold by the H&F Stockholders in such registration.

3.11Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company, following an initial Public Offering, agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(a)make and keep current public information available, within the meaning of Rule 144 (or any similar or analogous rule) promulgated under the 1933 Act, at all times after it has become subject to the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act;

(b)file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and 1934 Act (after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and

(c)so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 (at any time commencing ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public), the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

(b)Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.12 to the contrary, (i) no H&F Stockholder or Executive / Read Trust Stockholder shall be subject to any Lock-Up Restrictions for longer duration than that applicable to any other Holder that is participating in the applicable underwritten offering and (ii) if any Holder that is participating in the applicable underwritten offering is released from its Lock-Up Restrictions, the H&F Stockholders and Executive / Read Trust Stockholders shall be simultaneously released, on a pro rata basis, from such Lock-Up Restrictions (it being understood and agreed that the Company and each Holder initially released from its Lock-Up Restrictions must notify in writing the H&F Stockholders and Executive / Read Trust Stockholders as soon as reasonably practicable in advance thereof).

3.13Termination of Registration Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 shall terminate as to any Holder on the date such Holder, together with its, his or her Permitted Transferees (if such Holder is an Employee Stockholder) or its Permitted Transferees and Affiliates (with respect to any other Holder), no longer beneficially owns any Registrable Securities.

ARTICLE IV

4.1Indemnification of H&F Stockholders.

(a)Each of the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco and Opco will, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries and each other Intermediate Holding Company to, jointly and severally, indemnify, exonerate and hold the H&F Stockholders and each of their respective partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents and each of the partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all

(b)The Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco and Opco will, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries and each Intermediate Holding Company to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action for which the Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this ARTICLE IV, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnitee is a party thereto.

(equitable or otherwise) on such Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, and provided that the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco or Opco or their respective Subsidiaries or Intermediate Holding Companies.

Under no circumstance shall the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco, Opco or any Controlled Entity be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related Entities and no right of advancement or recovery the Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco, Opco or any Controlled Entity under the Indemnification Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco and Opco shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause the Controlled Entities to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly

upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco, Opco and/or any Controlled Entity pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee against the Company, Globe Intermediate, GOBP Holdings, GOBP Midco, Opco and/or any Controlled Entity, as applicable, and (z) Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

5.2Remedies. Subject to Section 3.9, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree that the covenants of the Company and the Stockholders set forth in this Agreement may be enforced in equity by a decree requiring specific performance. In the event of a breach of any material provision of this Agreement, the aggrieved party will be entitled to institute and prosecute a proceeding to enforce specific performance of such provision, as well as to obtain damages for breach of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, if any dispute arises concerning the Transfer of any of the Shares subject to this Agreement or concerning any other provisions hereof or the obligations of the parties hereunder, the parties to this Agreement agree that an injunction may be issued in connection therewith (including, without limitation, restraining the Transfer of such Shares or rescinding any such Transfer). Such remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies the parties may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

5.3Entire Agreement; Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto and the Subscription Agreements, sets forth the entire understanding of the parties, and as of the date hereof supersedes all prior agreements and all other arrangements and communications, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

The Exhibits may be amended to reflect changes in the composition of the Stockholders as a result of Permitted Transfers, Transfers permitted under ARTICLE II, exercise of Options, or additional Stockholders due to issuances of additional securities by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Amendments to the Exhibits reflecting Permitted Transfers or Transfers permitted under ARTICLE II or to reflect additional Stockholders due to issuances of additional securities by the Company pursuant to Section 5.13 or the exercise of Options shall become effective when a Joinder Agreement as executed by any new transferee or recipient of newly issued securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries is filed with the Company as provided for in Section 5.13. Any other amendments, modifications, supplements, restatements to or waivers of, or the termination of, this Agreement shall require H&F Consent; provided, that (a) any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, waiver or termination which would have a disproportionate adverse effect on the Executive Stockholders as compared to the effect on the H&F Stockholders shall require the written consent of Executive Stockholders holding a majority of the Shares held by the Executive Stockholders, (b) any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, waiver or termination which would have a disproportionate adverse effect on the Management Stockholders as compared to the effect on the H&F Stockholders shall require the written consent of Management Stockholders holding a majority of the Shares held by the Management Stockholders and (c) any such amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, waiver or termination which would have a disproportionate adverse effect on the Read Trust Rollover Stockholders as compared to the effect on the H&F Stockholders shall require the written consent of Read Trust Rollover Stockholders holding a majority of the Shares held by the Read Trust Rollover Stockholders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the Executive Stockholder Consent, no material amendment may be made to the provisions of Section 2.2, Section 3.1 or Section 3.2 which grant rights to any Executive Stockholder. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, any party may waive any rights with respect to which such party is entitled to benefits under this Agreement. No waiver of or consent to any departure from any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed in writing by the party entitled to the benefit thereof.

5.4Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, the invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if the invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so more narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

5.11Purchase for Investment; Legend on Certificate. Each of the Stockholders acknowledges that all of the Shares held by such Stockholder are being (or have been) acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof and that no transfer, hypothecation or assignment of such Shares may be made except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws.

(a)Unless Section 5.11(b) applies, each certificate (or book entry share) evidencing shares of Common Stock owned by a Stockholder and which are subject to the terms of this Agreement shall bear the following legend, either as an endorsement or stamped or printed, thereon, or in a notice to the Stockholder or Transferee:

“The securities represented by this Certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective registration statement as to the securities under said Act or an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel that such registration is not required.”

All Shares Transferred by a Stockholder (other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, pursuant to a Rule 144 transaction or pursuant to any distribution of Shares by an H&F Stockholder to its partners, members or other investors after an initial Public Offering) shall, except as otherwise expressly stated herein, be held by the transferee thereof subject to this Agreement. Such transferee shall, except as otherwise expressly stated herein, have all the rights and be subject to all of the obligations of the transferor Stockholder under this Agreement (as though such party had so agreed pursuant to Section 5.13) automatically and without requiring any further act by such transferee or by any parties to this Agreement. Without affecting the preceding sentence, if such transferee is not a Stockholder on the date of such Transfer, then such transferee, as a condition to such Transfer, shall confirm such transferee’s obligations hereunder in accordance with Section 5.13.
