A majority of the Directors shall be neither a citizen nor a resident of the United States.

2.2 Election of Directors.

(a) Following the Closing Date, the CVC Designator shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate, and the individuals nominated for election as Directors by or at the direction of the Board or a duly-authorized committee thereof shall include: (i) if the CVC Investors collectively directly hold or indirectly, as set forth in the books and records of PGHL or Pi Topco, as applicable, are attributed at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Common Shares, two Directors and (ii) if the CVC Investors collectively directly hold or indirectly, as set forth in the books and records of PGHL or Pi Topco, as applicable, are attributed at least 2.5% (but less than 7.5%) of the aggregate outstanding Common Shares, one Director, which Director may be a U.S. citizen or resident (in each case, each such person a “CVC Designee”).

(d) If at any time the CVC Designator, the Blackstone Designator, the FTAC Designators or Cannae (each, a “Shareholder Designator”) has designated fewer than the total number of individuals that it is then entitled to designate pursuant to Section 2.2(a), Section 2.2(b) or Section 2.2(c) hereof, the CVC Designator, the Blackstone Designator, the FTAC Designators or Cannae, as applicable, shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to designate such additional individuals which it is entitled to so designate, in which case, any individuals nominated by or at the direction of the Board or any duly-authorized committee thereof for election as Directors to fill any vacancy on the Board shall include such designees, and the Company shall use its best efforts to (i) effect the election of such additional designees, whether by increasing the size of the Board or otherwise, and (ii) cause the election of such additional designees to fill any such newly-created vacancies or to fill any other existing vacancies.

(e) Directors are subject to removal pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Amended and Restated Bye-Laws of the Company; provided, however, for as long as this Agreement remains in effect, the CVC Designees may only be removed with the consent of the CVC Designator, the Blackstone Designees may only be removed with the consent of the Blackstone Designator and the FTAC Designees may only be removed with the consent of the FTAC Designator, in each case delivered in accordance with Section 5.13 hereof.

(g) The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board at any meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (or consent in lieu of meeting), the persons designated pursuant to this Section 2.2 and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the election of each such designee to the Board, including nominating each such individual to be elected as a Director as provided herein, recommending such individual’s election and soliciting proxies or consents in favor thereof. In the event that any Shareholder Designee shall fail to be elected to the Board at any meeting of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (or written resolution in lieu of a meeting), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shareholder Designee (or a new designee of the applicable Shareholder Designator) to be elected to the Board, as soon as possible, and the Company shall take or cause to be taken, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, at any time and from time to time, all actions necessary to accomplish the same, including, without limitation, actions to effect an increase in the Total Number of Directors.

(h) Each Principal Shareholder (or PGHL and/or Pi Topco on behalf of and at the direction of any Principal Shareholder, as applicable) hereby agrees to vote in favor of and to consent to the Shareholder Designees in connection with each vote taken or written resolution executed in connection with the election of Directors to the Board, and each Principal Shareholder agrees not to seek to remove or replace the Shareholder Designees.

(i) In addition to any vote or written resolution of the Board or the shareholders of the Company required by applicable Law or the memorandum of association or bye-laws of the Company, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for so long as this Agreement is in effect, any action by the Board to increase the Total Number of Directors to greater than eleven (other than any increase in the Total Number of Directors in connection with the election of one or more Directors elected exclusively by the holders of one or more classes or series of the Company’s shares other than Common Shares) shall require the prior written consent of (i) the CVC Designator, for so long as the CVC Investors collectively directly hold or indirectly, as set forth in the books and records of PGHL or Pi Topco, as applicable, are attributed at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Common Shares, (ii) the Blackstone Designator, for so long as the Blackstone Investors collectively directly hold or indirectly, as set forth in the books and records of PGHL or Pi Topco, as applicable, are attributed at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Common Shares, and (iii) the FTAC Designators, for so long as the FTAC Investors collectively hold at least 7.5% of the aggregate outstanding Common Shares, in each case delivered in accordance with Section 5.13 hereof.

2.3 Compensation. Except to the extent the CVC Designator, the Blackstone Designator or the FTAC Designators may otherwise notify the Company with respect to the

CVC Designees, the Blackstone Designees or the FTAC Designees, respectively, any Shareholder Designees shall be entitled to compensation consistent with the Director compensation received by other Directors, including any fees and equity awards, provided, that (x) to the extent any Director compensation is payable in the form of equity awards, at the election of a Shareholder Designee that is an employee or affiliate of a Principal Shareholder, in lieu of any equity award, such compensation shall be paid in an amount of cash equal to the value of the equity award as of the date of the award, with any such cash subject to the same vesting terms, if any, as the equity awarded to other Directors and (y) at the election of a Shareholder Designee that is an employee or affiliate of a Principal Shareholder, any Director compensation (whether cash, equity awards and/or cash in lieu of equity as may be designated by the electing Shareholder Designee) shall be paid to a Principal Shareholder or an Affiliate thereof specified by such Shareholder Designee rather than to such Shareholder Designee. If the Company adopts a policy that Directors own a minimum amount of equity in the Company, any Shareholder Designee that is an employee or affiliate of a Principal Shareholder shall not be subject to such policy unless otherwise determined by such Principal Shareholder in its sole discretion.

2.4 Other Rights of Shareholder Designees. Except as provided in Section 2.3, each Shareholder Designee serving on the Board shall be entitled to the same rights and privileges applicable to all other members of the Board generally or to which all such members of the Board are entitled. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, exculpate, and reimburse fees and expenses of the Shareholder Designees (including by entering into an indemnification agreement in a form substantially similar to the Company’s form director indemnification agreement) and provide the Shareholder Designees with director and officer insurance to the same extent it indemnifies, exculpates, reimburses and provides insurance for the other members of the Board pursuant to the memorandum of association or bye-laws of the Company, applicable Law or otherwise.

2.5 Director Independence and Applicable Regulatory Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto shall ensure that the composition of the Board will continue to meet all requirements for a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other stock exchange on which the Common Shares may be listed from time to time), including with respect to director independence, and any other Laws or requirements of a Governmental Authority applicable to members of the Board. In the event a Shareholder Designee is prevented from serving as a Director by a Governmental Authority with the ability to so prevent, each of the Company, Pi Topco, PGHL and each Principal Shareholder shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Governmental Authority to remove such restriction; provided, that, (x) there shall be no obligation for such person to be added as a member of the Board and (y) the Shareholder Designator that had designated such Shareholder Designee shall be entitled to designate a replacement Director in lieu of such person. In addition, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that: (i) there is no agreement, arrangement or understanding for any of the Directors to vote or act together; (ii) that each Director shall act individually in respect of the matters that come before the Board consistent with the fiduciary duties of each Director; and (iii) each Director shall at all times act in accordance with applicable Law and shall refrain from taking any action which would cause the Principal Shareholders to contravene applicable Law.

(c) In the event a VCOC Investor or any of its Affiliates Transfers all or any portion of their investment in the Company to an Affiliated entity that is intended to qualify its investment in the Company as a “venture capital investment” (as defined in the Plan Asset Regulation), such Transferee shall be afforded the same rights with respect to the Company afforded to the VCOC Investor hereunder and shall be treated, for such purposes, as a third party beneficiary hereunder.

(d) In the event that the Company ceases to qualify as an “operating company” (as defined in the first sentence of 2510.3-101(c)(1) of the Plan Asset Regulation), or the investment in the Company by a VCOC Investor does not qualify as a “venture capital investment” as defined in the Plan Asset Regulation, then the Company and each Principal Shareholder will cooperate in good faith and take all reasonable actions necessary, subject to applicable Law, to preserve the VCOC status of each VCOC Investor or the qualification of the investment as a “venture capital investment,” it being understood that such reasonable actions shall not require a VCOC Investor to purchase or sell any investments.

(e) For so long as the VCOC Investor, directly or through one or more subsidiaries, continues to hold any Common Shares (or other securities of the Company into which such Common Shares may be converted or for which such Common Shares may be exchanged) and upon the written request of such VCOC Investor, without limitation or prejudice of any of the rights provided to the Principal Shareholders hereunder, the Company shall, with respect to each such VCOC Investor, furnish and deliver a letter covering the matters set forth in Sections 3.3(a), 3.3(b), 3.3(c) and 3.3(d) hereof in a form and substance satisfactory to such VCOC Investor.

(f) In the event a VCOC Investor is an Affiliate of a Principal Shareholder, as described in Section 3.3(a) above, such affiliated entity shall be afforded the same rights with respect to the Company and afforded to the Principal Shareholder under this Section 3.3 and shall be treated, for such purposes, as a third party beneficiary hereunder.

3.4 Confidentiality. Each Principal Shareholder agrees that it will, and will direct its designated representatives to, keep confidential and not disclose any Confidential Information; provided, however, that such Principal Shareholder and its designated representatives may disclose Confidential Information to the other Principal Shareholders, to the Shareholder Designees and to (a) its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ attorneys, accountants, consultants, insurers, financing sources and other advisors in connection with such Principal Shareholder’s investment in the Company, (b) any Person, including a prospective purchaser of Common Shares, as long as such Person has first agreed, in writing, to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, (c) any of such Principal Shareholder’s or its respective Affiliates’ partners, members, stockholders, directors, officers, employees or agents who have the need to know such Confidential Information (the Persons referenced in clauses (a), (b) and (c), a Principal Shareholder’s “designated representatives”) or (d) as the Company may otherwise consent in writing; provided, further, however, that each Principal Shareholder agrees to be responsible for any breaches of this Section 3.4 by such Principal Shareholder’s designated representatives.

3.5 Information Sharing. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that Shareholder Designees may share any information concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries received by them from or on behalf of the Company or its designated representatives with each Principal Shareholder and its designated representatives (subject to such Principal Shareholder’s obligation to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information in accordance with Section 3.4).
