Further, no Affiliate or portfolio company of the Receiving Party shall be deemed to be a Representative hereunder for purposes of this Section 6.3 solely due to the fact that one of the Receiving Party’s employees who has received or had access to Company Confidential Information or Sponsor Fund Confidential Information, as applicable, serves as an officer or member of the board of directors (or similar governing body) of such Affiliate or portfolio company; provided, that such employee does not provide Company Confidential Information or Sponsor Fund Confidential Information, as applicable, to the other directors, officers or employees of such Affiliate or portfolio company.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.1 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF

14

DELAWARE WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT EVEN IF, UNDER SUCH JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY.

Section 7.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company, each of the parties hereto, and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

Section 7.3 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented, and any provision hereof may be waived, from time to time by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Sponsor Fund; provided, however, that any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall require the consent of the ABRY Investors if such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver (a) would adversely affect the ABRY Investors in any respect or (b) would disproportionately benefit any other Holder or confer any benefit on any other Holder to which the ABRY Investors would not be entitled. Upon obtaining any such consent and without any further action or execution by the ABRY Investors, (x) any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of this Agreement may be implemented and reflected in writing executed solely by the Company and the Sponsor Fund and (y) each other party to this Agreement shall be deemed a party to and bound by such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any addition of a transferee of Company Group Equity Securities in accordance with Article II shall not constitute an amendment hereto and need be signed only by the Company and such transferee or recipient.

Section 7.4 Termination. Unless earlier terminated by the mutual agreement of all the parties hereto, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to each of the Sponsor Fund and the ABRY Investors, as applicable, upon such time as it ceases to own any Company Group Equity Securities. Except as otherwise provided herein, if the Sponsor Fund or the ABRY Investors Dispose of all of their Company Group Equity Securities, the Sponsor Fund and the ABRY Investors, as applicable, shall cease to be a party to this Agreement and shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled to enforce the obligations of the Sponsor Fund and the ABRY Investors, as applicable, pursuant hereto following the termination of this Agreement until the obligations of the Sponsor Fund and the ABRY Investors, as applicable, have been performed in full.

Section 7.5 Specific Performance. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that a remedy at law for any breach or attempted breach of this Agreement will be inadequate, agrees that each other party to this Agreement shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief in case of any such breach or attempted breach and further agrees to waive (to the extent legally permissible) any legal conditions required to be met for the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief (including posting any bond in order to obtain equitable relief). Each party to this Agreement further agrees not to raise as a defense or objection to the request or granting of such relief that any breach of this Agreement is or would be compensable by an award of money damages or that there is an adequate remedy at law.

Section 7.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party,

15

but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same agreement. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or.pdf signature which shall constitute an original for all purposes.

Section 7.7 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, and such invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable provisions shall be null and void as to such jurisdiction. It is the intent of the parties, however, that any invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable provisions be automatically replaced by other provisions which are as similar as possible in terms to such invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable provisions but are valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 7.8 Further Assurances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents as any other party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 7.9 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery or, in the event (but only in the event) that the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such legal action or proceeding, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or, in the event (but only in the event) that such United States District Court for the District of Delaware also does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such legal action or proceeding, any Delaware state court sitting in New Castle County, in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement or the actions of the parties hereof, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement in any court other than the courts of the State of Delaware, as described above. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the addresses set forth in Annex I shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 7.9 that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, that the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by

16

applicable Law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which a party hereto is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each party hereto expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the Laws of the State of Delaware and of the United States of America; provided, that each such party’s consent to jurisdiction and service contained in this Section 7.9 is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 7.9 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to said courts or in the State of Delaware other than for such purpose.

Section 7.10 Waiver. No course of dealing between or among the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Sponsor Fund and the ABRY Investors (or any of them) or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder will operate as a waiver of any rights of any party to this Agreement. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and will not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 7.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHT OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS ENTERED INTO IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN.

Section 7.12 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided, this Agreement and the Rollover Agreement set forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto as to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements among all or some of the parties hereto, whether written, oral or otherwise, as to such subject matter, including the Original ACE Agreement and the Original Datapipe Agreement. Unless otherwise provided herein, any consent required by any party hereto may be withheld by such party in its sole and absolute discretion.

Section 7.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, none of the provisions in this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person other than the parties to this Agreement, their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns and, with respect to Section 7.15 only, Related Parties. The covenants and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the respective parties hereto.

Section 7.14 Changes in Company Group Equity Securities. If, and as often as, there are any changes in Company Group Equity Securities by way of a dividend, distribution, stock split or combination, reclassification, recapitalization, exchange or readjustment, whether in a merger, consolidation, conversion or similar transaction, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required, so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to Company Group Equity Securities as so changed.

17

Section 7.15 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement or otherwise, and notwithstanding the fact that certain Holders may be partnerships, limited liability companies, corporations or other entities, each party hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no recourse under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered by any Person pursuant hereto or otherwise shall be had against any of the Sponsor Fund’s, any Co-Invest HoldCo’s, Apollo Group’s (disregarding the Affiliate Exclusion), the ABRY Investors’ or any of the foregoing’s respective Affiliates’ former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling Persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, financing sources, managers, general or limited partners or assignees (each, a “Related Party,” and, collectively, the “Related Parties”) (it being agreed that the Affiliate Exclusion shall be disregarded for purposes of all uses of the terms “Related Party” and “Related Parties” in this Agreement), in each case other than (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the provisions of this Agreement) each party hereto or any of its respective assignees under this Agreement, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable Law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any of the Related Parties, as such, for any obligation or liability of any party hereto or any of its respective assignees under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered by any Person pursuant hereto for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or liabilities or their creation; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.15 shall relieve or otherwise limit the liability of any party hereto or any of its respective assignees for any breach or violation of its obligations under such agreements, documents or instruments.

Section 7.16 Issuance of Additional Units to the ABRY Investor. If additional Company Group Equity Securities are issued to the ABRY Investors or the Sponsor Fund at any time during the term of this Agreement, either directly or upon the exercise or exchange of securities or loans of the Company (or its Subsidiary, as applicable) exercisable for or exchangeable into Company Group Equity Securities, such additional Company Group Equity Securities, as a condition to their issuance, shall become subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.17 Aggregation of Units. All Company Group Equity Securities beneficially owned by (a) the ABRY Investors and their Permitted Transferees shall be aggregated together and (b) the Sponsor Fund, any Co-Invest HoldCo and their Affiliates shall be aggregated together, in each case, for purposes of determining the rights or obligations of the ABRY Investors or the Sponsor Fund, respectively, or the application of any restrictions to the ABRY Investors or the Sponsor Fund, respectively, under this Agreement in each instance in which such right, obligation or restriction is determined in respect of or with reference to any Percentage Interest or ownership of Company Group Equity Securities, including in connection with any rights pursuant to Article IV. All rights held by the ABRY Investors, their Affiliates or their Permitted Transferees under this Agreement shall be exercised solely by the ABRY Investors.

18

Section 7.18 Assignment.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Sponsor Fund may assign its rights or obligations, in whole or in part, under this Agreement to any member of the Apollo Group. In the event that any additional member of the Apollo Group (other than any Co-Invest HoldCo) becomes an owner of Company Group Equity Securities, such Person shall, as a condition to acquiring such Company Group Equity Securities, become party to this Agreement and this Agreement shall be amended and restated to provide that such Person or a designee of such Person shall have the same rights and obligations of the Sponsor Fund hereunder to the extent of such Person’s ownership of Company Group Equity Securities.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the ABRY Investors may assign, in connection with a Disposition otherwise permitted hereby, (x) any of its rights or obligations to any Permitted Transferee or (y) any of its rights (other than the rights set forth in Article IV) to any transferee of Company Group Equity Securities to whom the ABRY Investors Dispose of at least fifty percent (50%) of Company Group Equity Securities that it holds as of the date of this Agreement (subject to Section 7.14). For the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the ABRY Investors shall be prohibited from assigning to any Person any right contained in this Agreement.
