CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS OF

SERIES A REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK,

PAR VALUE $0.0001 PER SHARE,

OF

PRIDE MIDCO, INC.

Pursuant to Section 151 of the

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

The undersigned DOES HEREBY CERTIFY that the following resolution was duly adopted by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Pride Midco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Corporation”), creating a series of preferred stock with the designations, powers, preferences and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, having been fixed by the Board pursuant to authority granted to it under the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware:

RESOLVED: That, pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board hereby creates as a series of preferred stock and authorizes for issuance 200,000 shares of Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation and hereby fixes the designations, powers, preferences and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of such shares, as follows:

SECTION 1 Designation. The shares of such series shall be designated “Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock,” and the number of shares constituting such series shall initially be 200,000 (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board and, in the case of an increase, the approval by the Holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class (the “Holder Majority”); provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares of such series then outstanding.

SECTION 2 Ranking. The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend, distribution and redemption rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up and dissolution, rank senior to the common stock of the Corporation, par value $0.01 per share, and to each other class or series of Equity Interests of the Corporation (whether issued on, prior to or following the Issue Date), the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks on a parity basis with, or senior to, the Series A Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend, distribution or redemption rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution (such common stock and such other class or series of Equity Interests being referred to hereinafter, collectively, as “Junior Stock”).

The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend, distribution and redemption rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up and dissolution and in each case without limiting Section 5 below, rank (a) equally with each other class or series of Equity Interests of the Corporation (whether issued on, prior to or following the Issue Date), the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank on a parity basis with the Series A Preferred

Stock with respect to dividend, distribution or redemption rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution (“Parity Stock”); and (b) junior to each other class or series of Equity Interests of the Corporation (whether issued on, prior to or following the Issue Date), the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend, distribution and redemption rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up and dissolution (“Senior Stock”).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate of Designations, including any other terms of this Section 2, the making of any Restricted Payment that is permitted by Section 9 (including, to the extent permitted under Section 9, any dividend, distribution or redemption of Junior Stock) shall not be permissible during the continuing nonpayment of any accrued Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock required to be paid in cash (including in respect of any prior Dividend Payment Period); provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the making of any Restricted Payment that is permitted by Sections 9(a).

SECTION 3 Dividends.

(a) Each Holder shall be entitled to receive dividends per share of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Holder (“Dividends”) at a rate per annum (computed as a percentage of the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference and (y) without duplication, all accrued and unpaid Dividends on such Series A Preferred Stock for all prior Dividend Payment Periods (as defined below)) equal to the Prevailing Dividend Rate (as defined below). Dividends shall be cumulative and payable in the manner set forth in Section 3(c) whether or not declared by the Board and whether or not there are profits or surplus therefor, and before any dividends shall be declared, set aside for or paid upon the Junior Stock (subject to the final paragraph of Section 2). For purposes hereof, the term “Liquidation Preference” shall mean $1,000.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Initial Liquidation Preference”), adjusted as appropriate in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, stock distribution, recapitalization or combination with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, and subject to increase as provided in clauses (c) and (e) of this Section 3.

(b) Dividends, whether or not declared, shall begin to accrue daily and be cumulative from and including the Issue Date at the Prevailing Dividend Rate. Dividends shall be payable (or shall compound as provided in this Certificate of Designations) quarterly in arrears, whether or not such dividends have been declared and whether or not there are profits or surplus available for the payment of dividends, on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year for the quarterly period ended on such date (unless any such day is not a Business Day and the applicable Dividend (or portion thereof) is to be paid in cash, in which event such Dividends shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day, with additional accrual to the actual payment date), commencing on December 31, 2018 (each such payment date identified above being a “Dividend Payment Date”; and the period from and including the Issue Date to the first Dividend Payment Date (and each such quarterly period thereafter beginning on and including the applicable Dividend Payment Date to the immediately following Dividend Payment Date) are each referred to herein as a “Dividend Payment Period”). The amount of Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

2

(c) From the Issue Date to the second anniversary of the Issue Date, on each Dividend Payment Date, either the Corporation shall pay Dividends in cash on the applicable Dividend Payment Date or such Dividends shall accrue and be added to the then-prevailing Liquidation Preference. From the day after the second anniversary of the Issue Date through the third anniversary of the Issue Date, the Corporation shall, to the extent there is surplus for the payment of Dividends, pay at least 50% of the accrued Dividend for the applicable Dividend Payment Period in cash.

From the day after the third anniversary of the Issue Date, the Corporation shall, to the extent there is surplus for the payment of Dividends, pay 100% of the accrued Dividend for the applicable Dividend Payment Period in cash.

(d) If on any applicable Dividend Payment Date, the Corporation is required to pay all or a portion of the accrued dividend for the applicable Dividend Payment Period in cash and the Corporation does not have surplus for the payment in cash of such dividend or otherwise fails to pay such dividend in cash for any reason, the Corporation shall comply with the Pro Rata and Reasonable Best Efforts Requirement (as defined in Section 6(c) as if applicable to the payment of a dividend).

(e) To the extent the Corporation does not pay Dividends entirely in cash on any Dividend Payment Date for any reason, then such accrued and unpaid Dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall compound on a quarterly basis, such that the then prevailing Liquidation Preference shall increase by an amount equal to the accrued but unpaid dividends for the applicable Dividend Payment Period. Not less than 10 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date, the Corporation shall notify the Holders of record as of the applicable Dividend Payment Record Date of the Corporation’s election to pay Dividends on the applicable Dividend Payment Date in cash (to the extent the Company is not required to pay Dividends in cash), or instead to cause such Dividends to increase the Liquidation Preference as described above. Without limiting the foregoing or the Corporation’s ongoing obligation to deliver such notices, in the event the Corporation fails to so deliver any such notice when and as required by this Section 3(e), then with respect to the Dividends to which such failure to deliver notice relates, the Corporation will be deemed to have elected to account for such Dividends by adding them to the Liquidation Preference with respect to each share of Series A Preferred Stock until paid in cash to the Holder thereof. In the event the Corporation has elected (or is deemed to have elected) to account for any Dividends by adding them to the Liquidation Preference with respect to each share of Series A Preferred Stock, the Transfer Agent shall promptly give by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holders of record at their respective last addresses appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, a statement setting forth the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid Dividends for all prior Dividend Payment Periods with respect to each share of Series A Preferred Stock. Each Dividend paid in cash shall be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by each Holder that holds shares of Series A Preferred Stock in writing given to the Corporation at least 5 days prior to the Dividend Payment Date.

3

(f) If on the date that is the 42-month anniversary of the Issue Date any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall pay an amount equal to 0.50% of the Initial Liquidation Preference of each of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding to the holders thereof as of such date in cash. To the extent the Corporation does not pay such amount entirely in cash on such date for any reason, then such amount on each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be added to the Liquidation Preference for each share, such that the then prevailing Liquidation Preference shall increase by the amount set forth in in the immediately preceding sentence.

(g) Each Dividend shall be payable (i) in the case of a Dividend paid in cash on a Dividend Payment Date, to the Holders of record as they appear on the stock ledger of the Corporation at the Close of Business on the date that is 10 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date, (ii) in the case of a Dividend that is initially not paid in cash and instead compounded and subsequently paid upon a payment date established by the Corporation for such purpose, to the Holders of record as they appear on the stock ledger of the Corporation the date that is 10 days prior to the applicable Dividend payment date, and (iii) in the case of a Dividend that is initially not paid in cash and instead added to the Liquidation Preference and subsequently paid pursuant to Section 4 or Section 6, to the Holders of record as they appear on the stock ledger of the Corporation at the date and time provided for in accordance with such Sections (each such record date, a “Dividend Payment Record Date”).

(h) The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that the capital of the Corporation (as such term is used in Section 154 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock and any of the Corporation’s Equity Interests shall be equal to the aggregate par value of the then outstanding shares of such Series A Preferred Stock or Equity Interests, as the case may be, and that, on or after the Issue Date, it shall not increase the capital of the Corporation with respect to any shares of the Corporation’s Equity Interests. The Corporation also acknowledges and agrees that it shall not create any special reserves under Section 171 of the Delaware General Corporation Law without the prior written consent of each Holder.

SECTION 4 Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.

(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation (each, a “Liquidation”), before any distribution or payment shall be made to, or set aside for, holders of any Junior Stock, each Holder shall be entitled to receive in full, out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus), an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Holder equal to the Liquidation Preference, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid Dividends thereon (to the extent not previously included in the computation of Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 3(e)), without duplication, through the date of Liquidation.

(b) The form of any distribution or payment described in Section 4(a) shall be determined in the following order of priority: (i) first, in cash and cash equivalents; and (ii) second, if cash and cash equivalents distributed or paid to the Holders are insufficient to satisfy each Holder’s right to receive the full amount described in Section 4(a), in any other assets of the Corporation available therefor.

4

(c) If, in connection with any distribution or payment described in Section 4(a), the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay in cash in full the amount required to be paid on the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 4(a), then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be paid on a pro rata basis among the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(d) For purposes of this Section 4, the Corporation’s merger, consolidation, binding share exchange or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis), shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 4.

SECTION 5 Voting Rights; Amendment and Consent Rights.

(a) No shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have voting rights except such as may from time to time be required by law and as set forth in this Section 5. For so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, either directly or indirectly by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, do any of the following without first obtaining the written consent or affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) at a meeting called for that purpose, of the Holder Majority: amend, alter or change the terms of the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) or waive the compliance of any of the covenants included in the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations), in each case as they relate to the Series A Preferred Stock (including relating to any powers, rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock) and including, without limitation, the following matters:

(i) any waiver of or amendment to the Prevailing Dividend Rate;

(ii) any waiver or amendment to the timing or method of payment of any Dividends;

(iii) any waiver or amendment in respect of the Liquidation Preference;

(iv) any waiver or amendment to any voting percentages or the matters enumerated in clauses (i) through (viii) of this Section 5(a);

(v) any waiver or amendment affecting the ranking of the Series A Preferred Stock, including a waiver or amendment of Section 2 hereof;

(vi) any changes to Sections 6(b), (c), (d), (f) or (g);

(vii) any changes to provisions regarding pro rata sharing, waterfall or priority of payments or dividends of the Series A Preferred Stock or similar provisions; and

(viii) binding equity exchanges or reclassifications involving the Series A Preferred Stock or mergers or consolidations of the Corporation.

(b) Other than amendments to the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) made in compliance with clause (a) of this Section 5 pursuant to the written consent or affirmative vote of the Holder Majority, no fundamental amendment, modification, change or waiver shall be made to (1) organizational documents

5

(including the certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or similar document, as applicable) of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise) that would materially adversely affect the Holders and/or (2) the bylaws of the Corporation that would adversely affect the Holders; provided that in the case of any amendment, modification, change or waiver to the organizational documents of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries that would adversely (but not materially adversely) affect the Holders, the Corporation shall deliver to the Holders affected thereby a notice at least five (5) Business Days prior to such amendment, modification, change or waiver briefly describing the amendment, modification, change or waiver. Any failure of the Corporation to deliver such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

SECTION 6 Redemption and Repurchase.

(a) Optional Redemption.

(i) At any time prior to the 18-month anniversary of the Issue Date, the Corporation may, at its option, redeem for cash any or all of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the then prevailing Liquidation Preference per share plus (ii) the Yield Maintenance Premium per share as of the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) plus (iii) the amount of accrued Dividends per share for the then current and all prior Dividend Payment Periods (except to the extent actually paid in cash or added to the Liquidation Preference as described in Section 3(e)) to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (it being agreed that if a Redemption Date is to occur after a Dividend Payment Record Date and before the corresponding Dividend Payment Date and the Corporation shall have notified the Holders that it has elected to pay Dividends on such Dividend Payment Date in cash, then the accrued Dividends payable under this clause (iii) for the then current Dividend Payment Period shall be payable to the Holders of record on the Dividend Payment Record Date and not to the Holders of record as of the Redemption Date).

(ii) The Corporation may, at its option, redeem for cash any or all of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on and after May 2, 2020, at a redemption price per share equal to the following prices (expressed as a percentage of the then prevailing Liquidation Preference), plus the amount of all accrued Dividends for the then current and all prior Dividend Payment Periods (except to the extent actually paid in cash or added to the Liquidation Preference as described in Section 3(e)):

Redemption Date	Redemption Price
May 2, 2020 – November 1, 2020		102.00	%
November 2, 2020 – November 1, 2021		101.00	%
November 2, 2021 and thereafter		100.00	%

(b) Mandatory Redemption Upon a Mandatory Redemption Event. In the event of a Mandatory Redemption Event, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed (a “Mandatory Redemption”) for cash at a price per share equal to the amount due under the Optional Redemption provisions set forth in clause (a) of this Section 6 (including with respect to any Mandatory Redemption Event prior to May 2, 2020, for the avoidance of doubt, any Yield Maintenance Premium, as applicable) as of the Redemption Date.

(c) Pro Rata and Reasonable Best Efforts Requirement. If a Mandatory Redemption Event occurs and the Corporation does not have surplus for the redemption of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall redeem a pro rata portion of each Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such surplus, based on the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed if the Corporation’s surplus was sufficient to redeem all such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series A Preferred Stock as soon as practicable after the Corporation has surplus therefor. The Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to generate sufficient surplus to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including by way of incurrence of indebtedness, issuance of equity, sale of assets, effecting a merger or similar transaction or otherwise. At any time thereafter when additional surplus is available for the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock such surplus shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Series A Preferred Stock. The requirements set forth in this clause (c) shall be referred to as the “Pro Rata and Reasonable Best Efforts Requirement.”

(d) Mandatory Redemption Notice. In the case of a Mandatory Redemption Event other than pursuant to clause (a)(iii) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, the Corporation shall provide notice to each Holder in accordance with Section 17 stating the material facts giving rise to the occurrence of such Mandatory Redemption Event, including the date (or anticipated date) of the facts, circumstances or event giving rise to such Mandatory Redemption Event, within the following time periods: (i) at least 10 Business Days prior to (a) a Change of Control, (b) initial public offering (or direct listing) of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or any entity of which the Corporation is a Subsidiary, (c) the Corporation’s liquidation, winding up or dissolution, or (d) a filing for bankruptcy or other Insolvency Proceeding of the Corporation, or, in the case of (c) or (d), if later, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Corporation discovers facts that cause it to reasonably expect that such event will occur; and (ii) promptly upon becoming aware of a Trigger Event but in any event no later than three Business Days after becoming aware of such Trigger Event. Upon receipt of notice from the Corporation, in the case of clauses (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (b) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, if the Holder Majority (acting alone in its sole and absolute discretion) elects to treat such facts, circumstances or event as a Mandatory Redemption Event, the Holder Majority shall so notify the Corporation within five Business Days; provided, however, that whether a Mandatory Redemption Event shall occur is not dependent on the provision of notice by the Corporation and the Holder Majority may, at any time upon becoming aware of facts, circumstances or events that are or may upon the election of the Holder Majority be a Mandatory Redemption Event, provide notice to the Corporation that the Holder Majority, on behalf of all Holders, elects to treat such facts, circumstances or events as a Mandatory Redemption Event. The Redemption Date corresponding to a Mandatory Redemption Event shall be the earlier of (1) five Business Days following receipt of notice by the Corporation, provided that, in the case of a Mandatory Redemption pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, the Redemption Date shall be no earlier than the date of the applicable Change of Control or initial public offering (or direct listing), (2) the date of a Change of Control

7

or initial public offering (or direct listing) corresponding to a Mandatory Redemption Event pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, as applicable, or (3) in the case of a Mandatory Redemption Event corresponding to a Trigger Event, five Business Days following receipt of notice by the Corporation from the Holder Majority that the Holder Majority has elected to treat such Trigger Event as a Mandatory Redemption Event. In the case of a Mandatory Redemption Event pursuant to clause (a)(iii) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, if the Holder Majority elects to cause a Mandatory Redemption Event, the Holder Majority shall provide notice thereof at least 90 days prior to the Redemption Date corresponding to such Mandatory Redemption Event to the Corporation and the Redemption Date shall be 90 days following receipt of notice by the Corporation. In the case of a Mandatory Redemption Event pursuant to clauses (c) or (d) of the definition of Mandatory Redemption Event, the Redemption Date shall be the earlier of (1) five Business Days following delivery of notice by the Corporation to the Holders, and (2) the date immediately preceding the date of the Corporation’s liquidation, winding up or dissolution or a filing for bankruptcy or other Insolvency Proceeding of the Corporation, as applicable. Failure by the Corporation to give such notice, or any defect in such notice or in the delivery thereof, to any Holder shall not affect the absolute and unconditional requirement to redeem or purchase all shares of Series A Preferred Stock as provided in Section 6(b). Failure by any Holder to comply with the procedures for redemption or purchase shall not affect or in any way limit the right of such Holder to receive payment of the redemption price pursuant to this Section 6; provided that the Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver such payment prior to the date of receipt of such Holder’s stock certificate or a customary affidavit of loss with respect to such stock certificate. Once a Mandatory Redemption Event has occurred, all shares of Series A Preferred Stock become irrevocably due and payable on the Redemption Date.

(e) Notice of Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. Notice of every redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a) shall be given to each Holder in accordance with Section 17 at least five Business Days before the date fixed for redemption. Each notice of redemption given to a Holder under this Section 6(e) shall state: (1) the Redemption Date; (2) the total number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such Holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such Holder; (3) the redemption price; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price. Failure by any Holder to comply with the procedures for redemption shall not affect or in any way limit the right of any Holder to receive payment of the applicable optional redemption price pursuant to this Section 6; provided that the Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver such payment prior to the date of receipt of such Holder’s stock certificate or a customary affidavit of loss with respect to such stock certificate. Once a notice of redemption is provided in accordance with this Section 6(e), the shares called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the applicable Redemption Date.

(f) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of part of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding pursuant to Section 6(a), such redemption shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Holders thereof based on the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such Holder (subject to payment of fractional shares of Series A Preferred Stock to account for rounding, if applicable). If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the Holder thereof.

8

(g) Redemption Failure. If (i) the Corporation fails to effect a redemption upon a Mandatory Redemption Event on the corresponding Redemption Date (a “Redemption Failure”) or (ii) any Event of Noncompliance shall occur and be continuing (for the avoidance of doubt, such a failure or event in (i) or (ii) includes a failure to make any such payment when otherwise due whether due to the lack of surplus therefor or other reason), then (a) the Prevailing Dividend Rate shall automatically be increased by 2.00% per annum and shall increase by 1.00% each six months thereafter until all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemed or the Event of Noncompliance ceases to continue and (b) the Corporation shall, in the case of a Redemption Failure, comply with the Pro Rata and Reasonable Best Efforts Requirement and, in the case of an Event of Noncompliance use reasonable best efforts to obtain sufficient liquidity to effect a refinancing and redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, if either (i) both a Redemption Failure and one or more Events of Noncompliance occur and are continuing or (ii) more than one Event of Noncompliance occur and are continuing, the Prevailing Dividend Rate shall only be increased, in the aggregate, by 2.00% per annum and an additional 1.00% each six months thereafter. If any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemed on a Redemption Date for any reason, all such unredeemed shares shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein.

SECTION 7 Limitation on Incurrence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Corporation will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness or, with respect to the Subsidiaries, issue any Preferred Stock, except:

(i) Indebtedness under the Senior Credit Agreement, and Guarantees in respect of such Indebtedness, in a maximum aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not exceeding $50.0 million, and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof not exceeding $50.0 million, provided that no modifications or amendments to the Senior Credit Agreement or any permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof shall be made without the consent of the Holder Majority if such modification, amendment or permitted refinancing would be materially adverse to Holders;

(ii) letters of credit or bankers’ acceptances issued or created under the Senior Credit Agreement in a maximum amount at any time outstanding of $7.5 million or any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof, without duplication, in a maximum amount at any time outstanding of $7.5 million;

9

(vii) endorsement of instruments or other payment items for deposit in the ordinary course of business;

(viii) Indebtedness of the Corporation owing to and held by any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Corporation or Indebtedness of a wholly owned Subsidiary owing to and held by the Corporation or any other wholly owned Subsidiary; provided, however, that:

(A) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests or any other event which results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Corporation or a Subsidiary of the Corporation, and

(B) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person other than the Corporation or a Subsidiary of the Corporation, shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness by the Corporation or such Subsidiary, as the case may be;

(ix) Indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business in respect of credit cards, credit card processing services, debit cards, stored value cards, commercial cards (including so-called “purchase cards,” “procurement cards” or “p-cards”);

(xi) Indebtedness Incurred by Subsidiaries of the Corporation, the aggregate principal amount of which does not exceed 0.30 times LTM Recurring Revenue at any one time outstanding.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to and in compliance with, this Section 7:

(i) in the event that all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 7(a), the Corporation, in its sole discretion, will classify, and may from time to time reclassify, such Indebtedness and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of the sub-clauses of Section 7(a); provided that all indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement will be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on clause (1) only;

10

(ii) additionally, all or any portion of any item of Indebtedness may later be reclassified as having been Incurred pursuant to any type of Indebtedness described in the Section 7(a) so long as such Indebtedness is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to such provision and any related Liens are permitted to be Incurred at the time of reclassification; provided that all indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement will be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on clause (1) only; and

(iii) Indebtedness permitted by this Section 7 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this covenant permitting such Indebtedness; provided that all indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement will be deemed to have been incurred in reliance on clause (1) only.

SECTION 8 Limitation on Merger, Consolidation and Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.

(a) The Corporation shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to, either directly or indirectly by amendment, merger, consolidation, allocation by division or otherwise, convey, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any property (including Equity Interests of Subsidiaries), except that the following (each, a “Permitted Disposition”) shall be permitted:
