2.2 Replacement of Directors. For so long as the Silver Lake Transferee Group has the right to nominate any person for appointment or election to the Board pursuant to Section 2.1, in the event that a vacancy is created at any time, whether by the expansion of the Board, by the death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal (with or without cause) of such director or otherwise, the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall have the right to nominate any person for appointment or election to the Board to fill such vacancy or to designate a replacement (who shall meet all qualifications required by the Company’s written policies) to fill such vacancy, as the case may be.

2.3 Director Independence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.1, if the Company ceases to qualify as a “controlled company” (or such similar term) under the rules of the Applicable Exchange (or the rules of any other exchange on which the Common Stock is listed), the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall, if necessary, within one (1) year after the Company ceases to qualify as such, cause a sufficient number of their respective designees to qualify as “independent directors” under such rules to ensure that the Board complies with applicable independence rules. To the extent permitted by the Company’s Charter then in effect, the Company shall be permitted, if necessary, and the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall take all reasonably necessary actions within its control, to increase the number of authorized directors and cause the newly created directorships resulting therefrom to be filled so as to comply with applicable independence rules.

2.4 Necessary Actions. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable Law or the Company’s Charter or Bylaws then in effect, the Company shall take all necessary actions within its control (including calling special Board and stockholders meetings) and use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such nominee or designee to the Board that is permitted to be nominated or designated in accordance with Section 2.1 or 2.2 to be (x) included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the stockholders of the Company for each election of directors (to the extent

that directors of such nominee’s class are to be elected at such meeting for so long as the Board is classified) and (y) included in the proxy statement (if any) prepared by the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Company shall not take any action to cause the removal without cause of any such director nominated or designated by the Silver Lake Transferee Group in accordance with Section 2.1 or 2.2, unless it is directed to do so by the Silver Lake Transferee Group.

2.5 Withdrawal of Nominees or Designees. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 2, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be nominated for election to the Board (or to be included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the Company’s stockholders or any proxy statement prepared by the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board) or recommend to the Company’s stockholders the election of any nominee or designee in the event that (i) the Board determines in good faith, based on the advice of reputable outside legal counsel, that such action would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties or (ii) the Company objects to such nominee or designee because such nominee or designee has been involved in any of the events enumerated in Item 2(d) or (e) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act or such person is currently the target of an investigation by any governmental authority or agency relating to felonious criminal activity or is subject to any order, decree, or judgment of any court or agency prohibiting service as a director of any public company or providing investment or financial advisory services. In the event of any such non-approval, the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall withdraw the nomination or designation of such proposed nominee or designee and specify a replacement therefor (which replacement nominee or designee shall also be subject to the requirements of this Section 2.5). The Company shall promptly notify the Silver Lake Transferee Group in writing of any objection to a nominee or designee in advance of the date on which proxy materials are mailed by the Company in connection with such election of directors, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to enable such Person to promptly propose a replacement nominee or designee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.6 Resignation. If the Silver Lake Transferee Group Transfers Common Stock such that it would be entitled to designate a lesser number of directors pursuant to Section 2.1 than it has so designated at such time, the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such number of its director nominees and/or designees to offer to resign as a director effective as of the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders so that the number of its director nominees and designees, as of such meeting and assuming the acceptance of such resignation, would not exceed the number it is entitled to pursuant to Section 2.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Board shall be required to accept any such resignation.

2.7 Committees. For so long as the Silver Lake Transferee Group has the right to designate at least one (1) director to the Board pursuant to Section 2.1, the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate, with respect to any committee of the Board, a number of individuals equal to the percentage of the issued and

outstanding Common Stock owned by the Silver Lake Transferee Group multiplied by the total number of directors of such committee (rounded up to the nearest whole number); provided, that the right of any director to serve on a committee shall be subject to applicable Law and the Company’s obligation to comply with any applicable independence requirements of the Applicable Exchange.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.1(a), each Holder agrees with the Company that it will not effect any Transfer of Equity Securities unless such Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and, in either case, in compliance with all applicable state securities laws and all applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The Company agrees, and each Holder understands and consents, that the Company will not take any action to cause or permit the Transfer of any Equity Securities to be made on its books (or on any register of securities maintained on its behalf) unless the Transfer is permitted by and has been made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all applicable securities laws. Each Holder agrees that in connection with any Transfer of Equity Securities that is not made pursuant to a registration statement, the Company may, in its sole discretion, request an opinion, certifications and other information in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company stating that such transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

(c)

(i) Subject to Section 4.5, each certificate representing Equity Securities held by a Holder that is subject to the provisions of this Agreement shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws) or if held in electronic form, shall be held in an account by the Company’s stock transfer agent subject to restrictions on Transfer substantially consistent with the following legend, which shall be furnished in accordance with applicable Law:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS

AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT COVERING ANY SUCH TRANSACTION OR (B) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER, , SUBJECT TO THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO RECEIVE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS AND OTHER OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS AND OTHER INFORMATION IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.

(ii) Each certificate representing Equity Securities held by a Management Stockholder that is subject to the provisions of this Agreement shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends substantially similar to the following or if held in electronic form, shall be held in an account by the Company’s stock transfer agent subject to restrictions on Transfer substantially consistent with the following legend:

THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT DATED AS OF JUNE 25, 2021, AMONG THE STOCKHOLDER, THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OTHER STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY (AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED AND IN EFFECT FROM TIME TO TIME). NO SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

(d) The Holders acknowledge and agree that any Transfer of the limited liability company interests, partnership interests, shares or other similar equity interests in a Holder or a parent entity of such Holder will be deemed to constitute a Transfer of Equity Securities, and any proposed Transfer of all or any portion of any such interests in a Holder or a parent entity of such Holder shall be subject to compliance with the terms of this Agreement as such terms apply to a Holder.

(e) In the event that a Stockholder Transfers any Equity Securities in contravention of this Section 3.1, such Transfer shall be null and void, and the Company agrees it will not take any action to effect such a Transfer nor will it treat any alleged transferee as the holder of such Equity Securities.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there is no limit or restriction, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any such limit or restriction, on the ability of any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group or the Workday Investors to Transfer its Equity Securities or its rights under this Agreement.

3.2 Demand Registration.

(a) If the Company shall receive a written request (a “Demand Request”) from any Demand Holder that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of all or a portion of the Registrable Securities owned by such Demand Holder, then the Company shall, subject to the limitations of this Section 3.2, effect, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the date such Demand Request is received, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof that the Demand Holder, and any Piggyback Holders pursuant to their rights under Section 3.3, request to be registered, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2(c). The Silver Lake Transferee Group shall have the right to make an unlimited number of Demand Requests.

(b) If the Demand Holder intends to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwritten public offering, it shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 3.2 or any request pursuant to Section 3.4. In connection with a Demand Request, Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold by all Demand Holders in respect of the related offering shall have the right to select the investment bank or banks and managers to administer such offering, including the lead managing underwriter; provided, that if such Holders decline to exercise such right, the Company shall select the investment bank or banks and managers to administer the offering, but the Demand Holder shall continue to have such right pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) in any subsequent underwritten public offering.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to effect a registration pursuant to Section 3.2 unless the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the Demand Holder, together with the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by any Piggyback Holders pursuant to Section 3.3, are reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross cash proceeds (without regard to any underwriting discount or commission) in excess of (x) fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) in the case of a registration on Form S-1 or any similar or successor long-form registration or (y) twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000) in the case of a registration on Form S-3 or any similar or successor short-form registration.

3.3 Piggyback Registrations.

(a) Notification. The Company shall notify the Eligible Holders of Registrable Securities (unless such Eligible Holder has demanded such registration pursuant to Section 3.2) (collectively, the “Piggyback Holders”) in writing at least two (2) full Business Days prior to the initial public filing of any Eligible Registration Statement. Such notice from the Company shall,

to the extent known, state the intended method of distribution of the Registrable Securities included in such Eligible Registration Statement. The Company shall afford (i) each such Piggyback Holder the opportunity to include in such Eligible Registration Statement up to the Threshold Amount of Registrable Securities provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt and subject to Section 3.3(c) below, the amount of Registrable Securities that Workday Investors may include in such shelf registration statement shall not be limited to the Threshold Amount, and (ii) each member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, to the extent shares of such Holder are not included in the Demand Request or if the registration is not being made pursuant to Section 3.2, the opportunity to include in such Eligible Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as they request. Each Piggyback Holder desiring to include Registrable Securities held by it in any such Eligible Registration Statement shall within one (1) Business Day after the above-described notice from the Company so notify the Company in writing. Any notice from a Piggyback Holder shall (i) specify the amount of Registrable Securities (up to the Threshold Amount, if applicable) that such Piggyback Holder would like to include in such Eligible Registration Statement and (ii) include the agreement of such Piggyback Holder to participate in any related underwritten offering on the same terms as the other participating Holders and shall be irrevocable unless the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in such registration) or, in the event of a Company-initiated registration, the Company, agrees in writing that it may be withdrawn; provided, that such notice to participate shall terminate on the date that is six (6) months after the Participation Effective Date if the related offering has not been consummated prior to such date. Upon such written notice from a Piggyback Holder, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which such Piggyback Holder has requested to be registered in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3. If a Piggyback Holder decides not to or is unable to include all of its Registrable Securities in any Eligible Registration Statement filed by the Company, such Piggyback Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include Registrable Securities in any subsequent Eligible Registration Statement as may be filed by the Company, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless the Catch Up Amount for a Management Stockholder is more than zero, such Management Stockholder shall not be permitted to exercise piggyback rights described in this Section 3.3 unless a member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group is registering and selling Registrable Securities in such transaction.

(b) Underwriting. If the Eligible Registration Statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 3.3 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise the Piggyback Holders. In such event, unless otherwise consented to by the Silver Lake Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in such registration), the right of any such Piggyback Holder to be included in an Eligible Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be conditioned upon such Piggyback Holder’s participation in such underwriting by executing and delivering a custody agreement and power of attorney in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in such registration) with respect to such Registrable Securities (the “Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney”). The Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney will provide, among other things, that (i) the Piggyback Holder will, to the extent applicable, deliver to and deposit in custody with the custodian and attorney-in-fact named therein one or more certificates representing such Registrable Securities,

accompanied by duly executed stock powers in blank, and irrevocably appoint said custodian and attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to act under the Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney on such Piggyback Holder’s behalf with respect to the matters specified therein, including, but not limited to, the entry into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) in customary form with the underwriter(s) and the Company and such other documents and agreements reasonably required in connection with such registration or offering and (ii) the Piggyback Holder will perform its obligations under such Underwriting Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection with such registration and/or offering. Such Piggyback Holder also agrees to execute such other documents and agreements as the Company or the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in such registration) may reasonably request to effect the provisions of this Section 3.3 and any transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Priority on Piggyback Registrations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 3, if the lead managing underwriter or underwriters advise, in the case of a registration requested pursuant to Section 3.2, the Silver Lake Transferee Group and, in all other cases, the Company that marketing factors (including, but not limited to, an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of shares to be included in an underwritten offering (including Registrable Securities), then the Silver Lake Transferee Group or the Company, as the case may be, shall so advise all Piggyback Holders of Registrable Securities who have requested to participate in such offering, that (i) if the requested registration is pursuant to Section 3.2, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated first to the Silver Lake Transferee Group and the Piggyback Holders of such Registrable Securities who have duly requested shares to be included therein (whether pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3) on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by the Silver Lake Transferee Group and all such Piggyback Holders, and (ii) if the requested registration is not pursuant to Section 3.2, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated first to the Company for its own account and second to the Piggyback Holders who have duly requested shares to be included therein pursuant to Section 3.3 on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all such Piggyback Holders. For any Piggyback Holder which is a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, the partners, members or stockholders, as applicable, of such Piggyback Holder, and the estates and Family Members of any such partners, members and stockholders and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing person(s) shall be deemed to be a single “Piggyback Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Piggyback Holder” pursuant to Section 3.3(c) shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all Persons deemed to constitute such “Piggyback Holder” (as defined in this sentence).

3.4 Form S-3 Registration.

(a) If, at any time that the Company is eligible to effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3), the Company shall receive a written request from the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) or any similar shelf registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of all or a portion of the Registrable Securities owned by the Silver Lake Transferee Group (or any member(s) thereof) or Workday Investors, as the case may be, then the Company shall, subject to the limitations of this Section 3.4, effect, as expeditiously as

reasonably possible, such requested registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, and any Piggyback Holders pursuant to their rights under Section 3.3, request to be so registered; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.4 if the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, together with the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by any Piggyback Holders pursuant to Section 3.3, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000.00).

(b) Shelf Take-Downs. At any time that a shelf registration statement covering Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3.4 is effective or has been requested to be filed pursuant to Section 3.4(a), if the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, delivers a notice to the Company (a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that it intends to effect an underwritten offering of all or part of its Registrable Securities included on the shelf registration statement (a “Shelf Underwritten Offering”) and stating the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the Shelf Underwritten Offering, then the Company shall promptly amend or supplement the shelf registration statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Underwritten Offering. In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering, other than any such offering not involving a “roadshow”:

(i) the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day of its receipt thereof from the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, also deliver the Take-Down Notice to the other Eligible Holders of Registrable Securities that have been included on such shelf registration statement and permit such Holders to include up to the Threshold Amount of their Registrable Securities included on the shelf registration statement in the Shelf Underwritten Offering if such Holder notifies the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, and the Company within one (1) Business Day after delivery of the Take-Down Notice to such Holder; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt and subject to clause (ii) below, the amount of Registrable Securities that Workday Investors may include in such shelf registration statement shall not be limited to the Threshold Amount; and

(ii) in the event that the lead managing underwriter or the underwriters advise the Silver Lake Transferee Group or Workday Investors, as the case may be, that marketing factors (including, but not limited to, an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation on the number of shares to be included in such Shelf Underwritten Offering, then the Silver Lake Transferee Group, Workday Investors or the Company, as the case may be, shall so advise all Eligible Holders of Registrable Securities who have requested to participate in such Shelf Underwritten Offering and the shares to be included in such Shelf Underwritten Offering shall be determined in the same manner as described in Section 3.3(c) with respect to a limitation of shares to be included in a registration.

(c) Workday Investors shall have the right to make only one request pursuant to Section 3.4(a) and Section 3.4(b) in the aggregate; provided that such limitation shall not apply to any request that is made by the Workday Investors that does not result in the registration of all Registrable Securities described in the applicable written request, or which is terminated pursuant to Section 3.5(a), not maintained effective as required pursuant to Section 3.5(b), or postponed or suspended pursuant to Section 3.5(c) without the prior consent of the Workday Investors.

3.5 Termination, Effectiveness, Postponement and Suspension of Registration.

(a) Right to Terminate Registration. If the Silver Lake Transferee Group determines for any reason not to proceed with any proposed registration requested pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4, the Silver Lake Transferee Group shall promptly notify the Company in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company shall withdraw or terminate such registration whether or not any Piggyback Holder has elected to include any Registrable Securities in such registration. In addition, the Company shall have the right to withdraw or terminate any proposed registration initiated by it, whether or not any Piggyback Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The Company shall promptly give notice of the withdrawal or termination of any registration, whether requested pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 or initiated by the Company, to any Piggyback Holder who has elected to participate in such registration. The Registration Expenses of any such withdrawn or terminated registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 3.6.

(b) Effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Eligible Registration Statement for a period of at least one hundred and eighty (180) days (which such period shall be extended in accordance with Section 3.5(c)) after the effective date thereof or such shorter period during which all Registrable Securities included in such Eligible Registration Statement have actually been sold; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to keep a shelf registration statement continuously effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such shelf registration statement have been sold thereunder in accordance with the plan and method of distribution disclosed in the prospectus included in such shelf registration statement or otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities and (ii) the date on which this Agreement terminates.

(c) Postponement or Suspension of Registration. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of an Eligible Registration Statement, including a shelf registration statement pursuant to Section 3.4, in respect of a registration pursuant to this Agreement at any time would require the Company to make a public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure in the good faith judgment of the Board (based on the advice of reputable outside legal counsel) (a) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not contain a material misstatement or omission, (b) would not be required by applicable Law or regulation to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such Eligible Registration Statement and (c) would reasonably be expected to have a

material adverse effect on the Company or its business or on the Company’s ability to effect a material proposed acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction, then the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such determination to the Holders participating in such registration, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, such Eligible Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be permitted to do so (x) more than two times during any twelve (12) month period or (y) for a period exceeding thirty (30) days (unless a longer period is consented to by the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in the registration)) on any one occasion (the “Suspension Period”). In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, such Holders agree to suspend, promptly upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of any prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. If so requested by the Company, all Holders registering shares under such Eligible Registration Statement shall use their reasonable best efforts to deliver to the Company (at the Company’s request and expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holders’ possession, of the prospectus relating to such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 3.5(c), it shall (i) promptly notify such Holders of the termination or expiration of any Suspension Period, (ii) within thirty (30) days after delivery of the notice referred to above (unless a longer period is consented to by the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in the registration)), resume the process of filing or request for effectiveness, or update the suspended registration statement, as the case may be, as may be necessary to permit the Holders to offer and sell their Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable Law and (iii) if an Eligible Registration Statement that was already effective had been suspended as result of the exercise of such rights by the Company, promptly notify such Holders after the termination or expiration of any Suspension Period of the applicable time period during which the Eligible Registration Statement is to remain effective, which shall be extended by a period of time equal to the duration of the Suspension Period.

3.6 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided herein, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration under Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 herein shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of securities sold in connection with such registration. For the avoidance of doubt, Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registration hereunder relating to securities sold by the Company shall be borne by the Company.

3.7 Obligations of the Company. If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 herein, the Company shall effect such registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall cooperate in the sale of the securities and shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC an Eligible Registration Statement or Eligible Registration Statements on such form as shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof or by the Company in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and to remain effective as provided in Section 3.5(b).

(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Eligible Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Eligible Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the distribution of all securities covered by such Eligible Registration Statement for the period set forth in Section 3.5(b) above; provided, that before filing an Eligible Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, upon the request of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, the Company will (i) furnish to the Stockholder Counsel copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the reasonable review of the Stockholder Counsel, (ii) provide the Silver Lake Transferee Group and the Workday Investors (to the extent participating in such registration) reasonable opportunity to comment on the registration statement, prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, and (iii) make such of the representatives of the Company as shall be reasonably requested by the Silver Lake Transferee Group and the Workday Investors (to the extent participating in such registration) available for discussion of such documents.

(c) Furnish without charge to the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, the underwriters, if any, and the Stockholder Counsel, such number of copies of the Eligible Registration Statement (including all exhibits filed therewith, including any documents incorporated by reference) and the prospectus included in such registration statement, including a preliminary prospectus, summary prospectus and each amendment and supplement thereto, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the distribution of Registrable Securities owned by them. The Company hereby consents to the use of such prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such prospectus and any such amendment or supplement thereto.

(d) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Securities, the underwriters, if any, and the Stockholder Counsel and counsel for the underwriters in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of the securities covered by such Eligible Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by such Holders and to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Eligible Registration Statement is required to be kept effective; provided, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business, subject itself to taxation or file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.

(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to (1) list such Registrable Securities on each national securities exchange on which such securities are then listed if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed and (2) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement no later than the effective date of such registration statement.

(f) Enter into and perform its obligations under such customary agreements, including, in the event of any underwritten public offering, an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, which shall include, at the option of the Silver Lake Transferee Group (to the extent any member thereof is a participating Holder in the registration), indemnification and contribution provisions and procedures either substantially similar to those contained in the underwriting agreement used in the IPO or substantially to the effect set forth in Section 3.9 hereof, with the underwriter(s) of, and selling Holders of Registrable Securities participating in, such offering, and deliver customary certificates, in each case, in connection with such offering.

(g) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Eligible Registration Statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the Company’s becoming aware that the prospectus included in such Eligible Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to amend or supplement such prospectus in order to cause such prospectus not to include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. Such notice shall notify such Holders only of the occurrence of such an event and shall not be required to provide additional information regarding such event to the extent such information would constitute material non-public information.

(h) Use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to the underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities being registered, on the date that the underwriting agreement is entered into, letters, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company and any acquired entity for which financial statements are included or incorporated by reference in such registration statement, in form, substance and scope as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering with respect to such financial statements and certain financial information addressed to each of the underwriters, if any, and each of the Holders of Registrable Securities being registered (unless such accountants shall be prohibited from so addressing such letters to Holders of Registrable Securities by applicable standards of the accounting profession).

(i) Use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to the underwriters, if any, and, in the case of clause (2), the Holders of Registrable Securities being registered, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (1) an opinion and a negative assurance

letter, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form, substance and scope as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering by counsel to the registrant, addressed to each of the underwriters, if any, and (2) bring-down comfort letters, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company and any acquired entity for which financial statements are included or incorporated by reference in such registration statement, in form, substance and scope as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering with respect to such financial statements and certain financial information addressed to each of the underwriters, if any, and each of the Holders of Registrable Securities being registered (unless such accountants shall be prohibited from so addressing to Holders of Registrable Securities such letters by applicable standards of the accounting profession).

(j) Provide the Stockholder Counsel opportunities to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act and make available for inspection by any selling Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any distribution to be effected pursuant to such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such selling Holder of Registrable Securities or any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees (and use its reasonable best efforts to cause its auditors) to supply all information reasonably requested by any such selling Holder of Registrable Securities, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration, including by causing senior management, with appropriate seniority and expertise (and using its reasonable best efforts to cause its auditors), to participate in customary due diligence sessions (subject to, if requested by the Company, each party referred to in this clause (j) entering into customary confidentiality agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide any information under this clause (j), to the extent, the Company reasonably believes, based on the advice of reputable outside legal counsel for the Company, that to do so would cause the Company to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information. Without limiting the foregoing, no such information shall be used by such Person as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the Company in violation of Law.

(k) (i) Make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order as promptly as reasonably possible and (ii) notify the Stockholder Counsel and the managing underwriter or agent, immediately, and confirm the notice in writing, of the issuance by the SEC of any such stop order or order, or the suspension of the qualification of the registration statement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the institution or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes.

(l) Use its reasonable best efforts (taking into account the Company’s business needs) to make available the executive officers of the Company to participate in any “road shows” that may be reasonably requested by the Silver Lake Transferee Group in connection with the distribution of Registrable Securities.

(m) Cooperate with each selling Holder of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the distribution of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA.

(n) Use its reasonable best efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration and/or complete any related offering of the Registrable Securities as contemplated hereby (including furnishing to the underwriters such further certificates, opinions and documents as the underwriters may reasonably request).

3.8 Delay of Registration; Furnishing Information.

(a) No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration of Registrable Securities as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Article 3.

(b) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 with respect to a selling Holder that such selling Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of distribution of such securities as required by Section 3.12 or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Company.

3.9 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in an Eligible Registration Statement under Sections 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4:

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are covered by an Eligible Registration Statement or prospectus, the partners, members, directors and officers of such Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Non-Company Indemnified Parties”), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or suits, actions or proceedings in respect thereof) and reasonable documented expenses arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Eligible Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein, including any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or related document or report, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact

required to be stated therein (in the case of an Eligible Registration Statement only), or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances when they were made, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal, state, foreign or common law, rule or regulation in connection with the offering covered by such Eligible Registration Statement (collectively, a “Violation”); and the Company will reimburse each such Non-Company Indemnified Party for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, suit, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, suit, action or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, suit, action or proceeding to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such Eligible Registration Statement by such Non-Company Indemnified Party.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each selling Holder of Registrable Securities will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) and any other Holder selling securities under such Eligible Registration Statement or any of such other Holder’s partners, members, directors or officers or any Person who controls such other Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, employee, agent, representative, controlling person, underwriter or such other Holder, or partner, member, director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or suits, actions or proceedings in respect thereof) and reasonable documented expenses arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Eligible Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein, including any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or related document or report, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein (in the case of an Eligible Registration Statement only), or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances when they were made, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any federal,

state, foreign or common law, rule or regulation in connection with the offering covered by such Eligible Registration Statement (collectively, a “Holder Violation”), in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Holder Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such indemnifying Holder expressly for use in connection with such Eligible Registration Statement; and each such indemnifying Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, employee, agent, representative, controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, or partner, member, director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, suit, action or proceeding if it is judicially determined that there was such a Holder Violation; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, suit, action or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such indemnifying Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, further, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of indemnity payments made by an indemnifying Holder under this Section 3.9(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such indemnifying Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.9 (an “Indemnified Party”) of written notice of the commencement of any claim, damage, suit, action or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation) being brought or asserted against it, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.9 (an “Indemnifying Party”), deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice of the commencement thereof; provided, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to deliver written notice to the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability it may have under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.9 except to the extent such failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Indemnifying Party so desires, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party who has received a similar notice, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to represent the Indemnified Party in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel relating to such proceeding, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not, except as specified below, be liable to such Indemnified Party under paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, for any legal expenses of other counsel. In any such proceeding, an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnified Party; provided the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel if (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have so mutually agreed; (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying

Party and the Indemnified Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interest between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel that is required to effectively defend against any such proceeding) for all Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed promptly. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.9 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable Law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by a court of Law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of contribution payments by a Holder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering made under such Eligible Registration Statement received by such Holder.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 3.9 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in an Eligible Registration Statement and the termination of this Agreement.

(f) The obligations of the parties under this Section 3.9 will be in addition to any liability, without duplication, which any party may otherwise have to any other party.

3.10 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. After the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, enter into any agreement or arrangement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant such Person registration rights that would have priority over, or that are equal in priority to, the Registrable Securities with respect to the inclusion of such securities in any registration. In the event registration rights are granted to any Person after the date of this Agreement, for purposes of this Agreement, such Person shall be deemed to have the rights and obligations of a Piggyback Holder and the provisions described in Section 3.3(c) with respect to a limitation of the number of shares to be included in a registration shall apply to such Person, who shall continue to be subject to the obligations and any limitations on such Person contained in any such agreement or arrangement granting such Person registration rights. In addition, in the event the Company engages in a merger or consolidation in which the Equity Securities are converted into securities of another Person, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to make appropriate arrangements so that the registration rights provided under this Agreement continue to be provided by the issuer of such securities. To the extent such new issuer, or any other Person acquired by the Company in a merger or consolidation, was bound by registration rights that would conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to modify any such “inherited” registration rights so as not to interfere in any material respects with the rights provided under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Silver Lake Transferee Group, which such modifications shall not adversely affect the Workday Investors in a manner different than the Silver Lake Transferee Group.

3.11 “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that, in connection with the IPO, such Holder shall not Transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale or other Transfer, any Equity Security held by such Holder (other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative(s) of the underwriters of the IPO not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days following the date of the final prospectus for the IPO; provided that this restriction shall not apply to any pledge, hypothecation or granting of a security interest in any Equity Security by a member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group to one or more financial institutions in a bona fide loan transaction, or the sale, transfer or other disposition by any such financial institution in exercising remedies thereunder, so long as the transferee of such Equity Securities agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.11. The Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to any Equity Security subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred and eighty (180) day or shorter period.

3.12 Agreement to Furnish Information. Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the representative(s) of the underwriter(s) that are consistent with the Holder’s obligations under Section 3.11 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. In addition, if requested by the Company or such representative(s), each Holder who has Registrable Securities to be included in an Eligible Registration Statement shall provide within one (1) Business Day of such request, such information relating to themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the registration and the intended method of distribution of the Registrable Securities as may be reasonably requested by the Company or such representative(s) in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to such Eligible Registration Statement. The underwriters of Registrable Securities are intended third-party beneficiaries of Sections 3.11 and 3.12 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto.

3.13 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC, which may permit the sale of the shares of Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the Initial Effective Time; and

(b) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after the Initial Effective Time.

Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with the foregoing requirements.

(b) So long as the Silver Lake Transferee Group has the right to designate at least one (1) Director pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Silver Lake Transferee Group at its request:

(ii) such other reports and information as may be reasonably requested by the Silver Lake Transferee Group;

provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide any information under this Section 4.1(b), to the extent, the Company reasonably believes, based on the advice of reputable outside legal counsel for the Company, that to do so would cause the Company to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information.

4.2 Confidentiality. Each Holder agrees to keep confidential any information furnished by the Company pursuant to this Agreement that the Company identifies as being confidential or proprietary, and to use the same degree of care as such Holder uses to protect its own confidential information to keep such information confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Holder may disclose such proprietary or confidential information (i) to any directors, officers, employees, partners, members, subsidiaries, parent, agent and adviser (“Representatives”) of such Holder who have a reasonable need to know such information for the purpose of monitoring its investment in the Company as long as such Representative is advised of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 4.2; provided such Holder shall be responsible for the breach of this Section 4.2 by any such Representative; (ii) at such time as it enters the public domain through no fault of such Holder or its Representatives; (iii) that is developed by such Holder or its Representatives independently of and without reference to any confidential information communicated by the Company; (iv) solely with respect to members of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, any potential financing source and its respective representatives in connection with a financing transaction contemplated by Section 4.5, or (v) to the extent required by applicable Law or legal process, regulation or regulatory process, subpoena or the listing standards of any national securities exchange; provided however, that in the case of clause (v) (A) such Holder shall as promptly as practicable (and, if practicable and permitted by applicable Law, prior to disclosing such confidential information) notify the Company of the existence of, and basis for, such required disclosure and (B) if requested by the Company, such Holder shall reasonably cooperate with the Company (at the expense of the Company) in seeking to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to the confidential information so disclosed. Each Holder agrees to use any information provided to it pursuant to this Agreement for the sole purpose of monitoring its investment in the Company and not to use such information as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the Company in violation of Law.

4.3 Directors’ Liability and Indemnification; Insurance.

(a) On and after the Initial Effective Time, the Company’s Charter and Bylaws shall provide (a) for elimination of the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Law and (b) for indemnification of directors for acts on behalf of the Company (including, without limitation, the advancement of expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred in appearing at, participating in or defending any applicable proceeding in advance of its final disposition or in connection with a proceeding brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses) to the maximum extent permitted by Law; provided however that except with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses or with respect to any compulsory counterclaim brought by such director, the Company shall indemnify any such director in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such director only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

(b) The Company shall at all times maintain a policy or policies of insurance providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Silver Lake Transferee Group.

4.4 Spin-Offs and Split-Offs. In the event that the Company effects the separation of any portion of its business into one or more entities (each, a “NewCo”), whether existing or newly formed, including without limitation by way of spin-off, split-off, carve-out, demerger, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, and any Stockholder will receive equity interests in any such NewCo as part of such separation, the Company shall cause any such NewCo to enter into a stockholders agreement with the Stockholders that provides the Stockholders with rights and obligations vis-á-vis such NewCo that are substantially identical to those set forth in this Agreement.

4.5 Pledges. Upon the request of any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group that wishes to pledge, hypothecate or grant security interests in any or all of the shares of Common Stock held by it including to banks or other financial institutions as collateral or security for loans, advances or extensions of credit, the Company will provide the following cooperation: (i) subject to applicable law, using reasonable efforts to remove any restrictive legends on certificates representing pledged Common Stock and depositing such pledged Common Stock in book entry form on the books of The Depository Trust Company when eligible to do so, (ii) if so requested by such lender or counterparty, as applicable, using commercially reasonable efforts to re-issue the pledged Common Stock in book entry form on the books of the Company’s transfer agent and/or the re-register the pledged Common Stock in the name of the relevant lender, counterparty, custodian or similar party, solely as securities intermediary and only to the extent a member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group continues to beneficially own such pledged Common Stock, (iii) entering into an issuer agreement which agreement shall include, without limitation, agreements and obligations of the Company relating to procedures and specified time periods for effecting transfers upon foreclosure, agreements to not hinder or delay exercises of remedies on foreclosure, acknowledgments regarding corporate policy, if applicable, certain acknowledgments regarding securities law status of the pledge arrangements, with such changes as are reasonably requested by such lender and customary for similar financings and not inconsistent with the Company’s obligations under applicable law and (iv) such other cooperation and assistance as such member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group may reasonably request that will not unreasonably disrupt the operation of the Company’s business.

4.6 Company Cooperation in connection with Transfers by Members of the Silver Lake Transferee Group. In connection with a Transfer or proposed Transfer of Equity Securities by any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group and if requested by such member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate in such Transfer of Equity Securities, including, without limitation, by (i) providing such member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, any potential transferee in a Permitted Transfer and their respective Representatives opportunities to conduct a reasonable investigation of the Company and making available for inspection all properties, facilities, material contracts and books and records, including financial statements, projections and accountants’ work papers of the Company, as well as access to the officers, management, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, agents and other representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be required or requested in connection with such transaction, (ii) promptly furnishing to the transferor, transferee or acquiror and its or their advisors and representatives financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by the transferor and (iii) causing all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees (and using its reasonable best efforts to cause its auditors) to supply all information reasonably requested by Silver Lake Transferee Group and/or such Transferee and their respective Representatives in connection with such Transfer, including by causing senior management, with appropriate seniority and expertise (and using its reasonable best efforts to cause its auditors), to participate in customary meetings, drafting sessions and due diligence sessions in connection with any such Transfer (subject to, if requested by the Company, each party referred to in this Section 4.6 entering into customary confidentiality agreements in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide any information under this Section 4.6 to the extent, the Company reasonably believes, based on the advice of reputable outside legal counsel for the Company, that to do so would cause the Company to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information. The Company shall assist the transferor and their advisors and/or representatives in the preparation and execution of any documents in connection with such sale or Transfer, each of subclauses (i) through (iii) to the extent reasonably requested and required for such sale or transfer to be effectuated, and agrees to provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates and its and their respective officers, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, agents and other representatives to provide, such cooperation as may reasonably be requested (including with respect to timeliness) in connection with and to assist in the structuring and/or facilitation of any such sale or Transfer. Without limiting the foregoing, no such information shall be used by such Person as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the Company in violation of Law.

4.7 Transfer Agent. Each Holder agrees to abide by the policies and procedures of the transfer agent, if any, appointed by the Company with respect to any Equity Securities.

4.8 Corporate Opportunity Waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and subject to applicable legal requirements and any express agreement that may from time to time be in effect, the Company agrees that the Covered Persons may, and shall have no duty not to, (i) invest in, carry on and conduct, whether directly,

or as a partner in any partnership, or as a joint venturer in any joint venture, or as an officer, director, stockholder, equityholder or investor in any person, or as a participant in any syndicate, pool, trust or association, any business of any kind, nature or description, whether or not such business is competitive with or in the same or similar lines of business as the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) do business with any client, customer, vendor or lessor of any of the Company or its Affiliates, and/or (iii) make investments in any kind of property in which the Company may make investments; provided, however, that no Covered Person may invest or make investments in any business on the basis of confidential information it has received from the Company or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Section 122(17) of the DGCL or any other applicable law in the event that the applicable entity is not incorporated, formed or organized as a corporation in the State of Delaware, the Company (for itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates) hereby renounces any interest or expectancy to participate in any business or investments of any Covered Person as currently conducted or as may be conducted in the future, and waives any claim against a Covered Person and shall indemnify a Covered Person against any claim that such Covered Person is liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of such Person’s participation in any such business or investment. In the event that a Covered Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may constitute a corporate opportunity for both (x) the Covered Person and (y) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates, the Covered Person shall not have any duty to offer or communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Section 122(17) of the DGCL or any other applicable law in the event that the applicable entity is not incorporated, formed or organized as a corporation in the State of Delaware, the Company (for itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates) hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in any potential transaction or matter of which the Covered Person acquires knowledge, except for any corporate opportunity which is expressly offered to a Covered Person in writing stating that such offer is being provided to such Covered Person solely in his or her capacity as a director of the Company and such corporate opportunity is intended solely for the benefit of the Company, and waives any claim against each Covered Person and shall indemnify a Covered Person against any claim, that such Covered Person is liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of the fact that such Covered Person (A) pursues or acquires any corporate opportunity for its own account or the account of any Affiliate or other Person, (B) directs, recommends, sells, assigns or otherwise transfers such corporate opportunity to another Person or (C) does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company; provided, however, in each such case, that any corporate opportunity which is expressly offered to a Covered Person in writing stating that such offer is being provided to such Covered Person solely in his or her capacity as a director of the Company and such corporate opportunity is intended solely for the benefit of the Company shall belong to the Company. The Company shall pay in advance any expenses incurred in defense of such claim as provided in this provision, except to the extent that a Covered Person is determined by a final, non-appealable order of a Delaware court having competent jurisdiction (or any other judgment which is not appealed in the applicable time) to have breached this Section 4.8, in which case any such advanced expenses shall be promptly reimbursed to the Company.

4.9 Section 16 Matters. If the Company becomes a party to a consolidation, merger or other similar transaction, or if the Company reasonably believes there is otherwise any event or circumstance that may result in Silver Lake, any Silver Lake Affiliate and/or any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group being deemed to have made a disposition or acquisition of equity securities of the Company or derivatives thereof for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and if one or more designees of the Silver Lake Transferee Group is serving or participating on the Board at such time or has served on the Board during the preceding six months, then upon request of the Silver Lake Transferee Group, (i) the Board or a committee composed solely of two or more “non-employee directors” as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act will pre-approve such acquisition or disposition of equity securities of the Company or derivatives thereof for the express purpose of exempting the interests of Silver Lake, any Silver Lake Affiliate, the Silver Lake Transferee Group (in each case, to the extent such persons may be deemed to be a director or “directors by deputization”) and such Board designee(s) in such transaction from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 thereunder to the extent applicable and (ii) if the transaction involves (A) a merger or consolidation to which the Company is a party and the Company Capital Stock is, in whole or in part, converted into or exchanged for equity securities of a different issuer, (B) a potential acquisition or deemed acquisition, or disposition or deemed disposition, by Silver Lake, any Silver Lake Affiliate and/or any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group or any such Board designee of equity securities of such other issuer or derivatives thereof and (C) such other issuer of which a designee of Silver Lake, any Silver Lake Affiliate and/or any member of the Silver Lake Transferee Group serves as a member of its board of directors (or its equivalent), then the Company shall require that such other issuer pre-approve any such acquisitions of equity securities or derivatives thereof for the express purpose of exempting the interests of Silver Lake, such Silver Lake Affiliate, the Silver Lake Transferee Group (in each case, to the extent such persons may be deemed to be a director or “directors by deputization” of such other issuer) or any such member in such transactions from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 thereunder to the extent applicable.

In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Parties shall make any payment to the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause the Controlled Entities to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Party making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Party, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by the Company and/or any Controlled Entity pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Party 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 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 Parties effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. For purposes of this Section 5.17(b):

(c) (i) The term “Indemnitee-Related Party” means any Person (other than the Company, any Controlled Entity or the insurer under and pursuant to an insurance policy of the Company or any Controlled Entity) from whom an Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to which, in whole or in part, the Company or any Controlled Entity may also have an indemnification or advancement obligation.

(ii) The term “Jointly Indemnifiable Claims” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) the Company and/or any Controlled Entity pursuant to the Indemnification Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Party pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Party and the Indemnitee pursuant to which the Indemnitee is indemnified, the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Party and/or the Organizational Documents of any Indemnitee-Related Party, on the other hand.

(d) The Company and Investors agree that each of the Indemnitees and Indemnitee-Related Parties shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 5.17, entitled to enforce this Section 5.17 as though each such Indemnitees and Indemnitee-Related Party were a party to this Agreement. The Company shall cause each of the Controlled Entities to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 5.17 as though each such Controlled Entity was a party to this Agreement.

5.18 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be made against, the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto, including entities that become parties hereto after the date hereof or that agree in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Agreement applicable to the Investor, and no former, current or future equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future equityholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, advisor, agent or affiliates of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from any Non-Recourse Party.

The Company intends for the Plan to have two components: a Code Section 423 Component (“423 Component”) and a non-Code Section 423 Component (“Non-423 Component”). The Company intends to have the 423 Component of the Plan qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. The provisions of the 423 Component, accordingly, will be construed so as to extend and limit Plan participation in a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. In addition, the Plan authorizes the grant of an option to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Non-423 Component that does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code; such an option will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to achieve tax, securities laws or other objectives for Eligible Employees and the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.

References to a specific Section of the Code or U.S. Treasury Regulation thereunder will include such Section or regulation, any valid regulation or other official applicable guidance promulgated under such Section, and any comparable provision of any future legislation or regulation amending, supplementing or superseding such Section or regulation.

Where the period of leave exceeds three (3) months and the individual’s right to reemployment is not guaranteed either by statute or by contract, the employment relationship will be deemed to have terminated three (3) months and one (1) day following the commencement of such leave. The Administrator, in its discretion, from time to time may, prior to an Enrollment Date for all options to be granted on such Enrollment Date in an Offering, determine (for each Offering under the 423 Component, on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis or as otherwise permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2) that the definition of Eligible Employee will or will not include an individual if he or she: (i) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code, or (ii) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code with compensation above a certain level or is an officer or subject to the disclosure requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act; provided, that the exclusion is applied with respect to each Offering under the 423 Component in an identical manner to all highly compensated employees of the Employer whose employees are participating in that Offering. Each exclusion shall be applied with respect to an Offering under a 423 Component in a manner complying with U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(e)(2)(ii). Such exclusions may be applied with respect to an Offering under the Non-423 Component without regard to the limitations of Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2.

To the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(a)(1), the terms of each Offering need not be identical; provided, that the terms of the Plan and an Offering together satisfy U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(a)(2) and (a)(3).

Eligible Employees who are citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction (without regard to whether they also are citizens or residents of the United States or resident aliens (within the meaning of Section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code)) may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the participation of such Eligible Employees is prohibited under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction or if complying with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction would cause the Plan or an Offering to violate Section 423 of the Code. In the case of the Non-423 Component, an Eligible Employee may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the Administrator has determined that participation of such Eligible Employee is not advisable or practicable.

4

(d) Limitations. Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no Eligible Employee will be granted an option under the Plan (i) to the extent that, immediately after the grant, such Eligible Employee (or any other Person whose stock would be attributed to such Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own capital stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company and/or hold outstanding options to purchase such stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the capital stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) to the extent that his or her rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans (as defined in Section 423 of the Code) of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company accrues at a rate that exceeds twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) worth of stock (determined at the Fair Market Value of the stock at the time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time, as determined in accordance with Section 423 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

4. Offering Periods.

(a) Frequency and Duration. The Administrator may establish Offering Periods of such frequency and duration as it may from time to time determine as appropriate.

(b) First Offering Period. The first Offering Period under the Plan shall commence on the date determined by the Administrator and shall end on the last Trading Day on or immediately preceding the earlier to occur of June 30 or December 31 of the year in which the first Offering Period commences.

(c) Successive Offering Periods. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, following the completion of the first Offering Period, a new Offering Period shall commence on the first Trading Day on or following January 1 and July 1 of each calendar year and end on or following the last Trading Day on or immediately preceding June 30 and December 31, respectively, approximately six (6) months later.

(d) Additional Offering Periods. At the discretion of the Administrator, additional Offering Periods may be conducted under the Plan. Such additional Offering Periods may, but need not, qualify under Section 423 of the Code. The Administrator shall determine the commencement and duration of each additional Offering Period, and additional Offering Periods may be consecutive or overlapping. The other terms and conditions of each additional Offering Period shall be those set forth in the Plan document, with such changes or additional features as the Administrator determines necessary to comply with Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other Applicable Law, regulation or stock exchange rule). The Administrator shall have the power to change the duration of Offering Periods (including the commencement dates thereof) with respect to future Offerings without stockholder approval.

(e) Offering Period Limit. No Offering Period may last more than twenty-seven (27) months.

(f) Applicable Offering Period. For purposes of calculating the Purchase Price, the applicable Offering Period shall be determined as follows: Once a Participant is enrolled in the Plan for an Offering Period, such Offering Period shall continue to apply to him or her until the earliest of (x) the end of such Offering Period, or (y) the end of his or her participation under Section 10 of the Plan.

5. Participation.

(a) First Offering Period. An Eligible Employee will be entitled to continue to participate in the first Offering Period pursuant to Section 3(a) of the Plan only if such individual submits a subscription agreement authorizing Contributions in a form determined by the Administrator (which may be similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit B) to the Company’s designated third-party broker/plan administrator (i) no earlier than the effective date of the Form S-8 registration statement that registers the offer and sale of Common Stock under the Plan and (ii) no later than ten (10) business days following the effective date of such S-8 registration statement or such other period of time as the Administrator may determine (the “Enrollment Window”).

5

(b) Subsequent Offering Periods. Once an Eligible Employee begins participation in an Offering Period, then such Eligible Employee will automatically participate in each subsequent Offering Period unless the Eligible Employee withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or terminates further participation in an Offering Period as set forth in Section 10 below. An Eligible Employee who is continuing participation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is not required to file any additional subscription agreement in order to continue participation in this Plan; during each subsequent Offering Period an Eligible Employee who is not continuing participation pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is required to file a subscription agreement prior to the commencement of the Offering Period (or such earlier date as the Administrator may determine) to which such agreement relates in order to participate in such Offering Period.

6. Contributions.

(a) At the time a Participant enrolls in the Plan pursuant to Section 5 of the Plan, he or she will elect to have Contributions (in the form of payroll deductions or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the Administrator) made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount not exceeding fifteen percent (15%) of the Compensation, which he or she receives on each pay day during the Offering Period (for illustrative purposes, should a pay day occur on an Exercise Date, a Participant will have any payroll deductions made on such day applied to his or her account under the then-current Purchase Period or Offering Period). The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit all Participants in a specified Offering to contribute amounts to the Plan through payment by cash, check or other means set forth in the subscription agreement prior to each Exercise Date of each Purchase Period. A Participant’s subscription agreement will remain in effect for successive Offering Periods unless terminated as provided in Section 10 hereof.

(b) In the event Contributions are made in the form of payroll deductions, such payroll deductions for a Participant will commence on the first day of the payroll cycle following the Enrollment Date and will end on the last pay day prior to the Exercise Date of such Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10 hereof or suspended by the Participant as provided in Section 6(d) hereof; provided, that for the first Offering Period, payroll deductions will commence on the first day of the payroll cycle following the end of the Enrollment Window.

(c) All Contributions made for a Participant will be credited to his or her account under the Plan, and Contributions will be made in whole percentages of Compensation only. A Participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

(d) A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 10 of the Plan. If permitted by the Administrator, as determined in its sole discretion, a Participant may, on a single occasion, either reduce his or her rate of contribution during, or suspend his or her contributions for the remainder of, an on-going Offering Period by filing with the Company’s designated third-party broker/plan administrator a new authorization for payroll deductions, with the new rate of contribution, or suspension of contributions, to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable and continuing for the remainder of the Offering Period. If a Participant suspends his or her contributions at any time during an Offering Period, such Participant’s cumulative contributions prior to such suspension shall be used to purchase shares on the next occurring Exercise Date unless such Participant discontinues his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 10 of the Plan prior to such Exercise Date.

6

(e) To the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(d) hereof, a Participant’s Contributions may be decreased to zero percent (0%) at any time during a Purchase Period. Subject to Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(d) hereof, Contributions will recommence at the rate originally elected by the Participant effective as of the beginning of the first Purchase Period scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 10 of the Plan.

(f) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the Plan, the Administrator may allow Eligible Employees to participate in the Plan via cash contributions instead of payroll deductions if (i) payroll deductions are not permitted under applicable local law, (ii) the Administrator determines that cash contributions are permissible under Section 423 of the Code or (iii) for Participants participating in the Non-423 Component.

(g) At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs), the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s or the Employer’s federal, state, local or any other tax liability payable to any authority including taxes imposed by jurisdictions outside of the U.S., national insurance, social security or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Stock (or any other time that a taxable event related to the Plan occurs). At any time, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company or the Employer to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company or the Employer any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Common Stock by the Eligible Employee. In addition, the Company or the Employer may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the proceeds of the sale of Common Stock or any other method of withholding the Company or the Employer deems appropriate to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f).

7. Grant of Option. On the Enrollment Date of an applicable Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period will be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price) up to a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such Eligible Employee’s Contributions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the Eligible Employee’s account as of the Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided, that in no event will an Eligible Employee be permitted to purchase during each Purchase Period more than 1,500 shares of Common Stock and, during any one year period, more than 3,000 shares of Common Stock, subject, in each case to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19 of the Plan; provided, further, that such purchase will be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(d) and 13 of the Plan. The Eligible Employee may accept the grant of such option (i) with respect to the first Offering Period by submitting a properly completed subscription agreement in accordance with the requirements of Section 5 of the Plan on or before the last day of the Enrollment Window, and (ii) with respect to any subsequent Offering Period under the Plan, by continuing to (or electing to, as applicable) participate in the Plan in accordance with the requirements of Section 5 of the Plan. The Administrator may, for future Offering Periods, increase or decrease, in its absolute discretion, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that an Eligible Employee may purchase during each Purchase Period of an Offering Period or during any one-year period. Exercise of the option will occur as provided in Section 8, unless the Participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10 of the Plan. To the extent not otherwise exercised in full, the option will expire on the last day of the Offering Period.

7

8. Exercise of Option.

(a) Unless a Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10 of the Plan, his or her option for the purchase of shares of Common Stock will be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to the option will be purchased for such Participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated Contributions from his or her account. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be purchased; any Contributions accumulated in a Participant’s account, which are not sufficient to purchase a full share will be retained in the Participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, subject to earlier withdrawal by the Participant. Any other funds left over in a Participant’s account after the Exercise Date will also be retained in the Participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period, subject to earlier withdrawal by the Participant. During a Participant’s lifetime, a Participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her.

(b) If the Administrator determines that, on a given Exercise Date, the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that were available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock available for sale under the Plan on such Exercise Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (x) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all Participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and continue all Offering Periods then in effect or (y) provide that the Company will make a pro rata allocation of the shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as will be practicable and as it will determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 20 of the Plan. The Company may make a pro rata allocation of the shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date.

9. Delivery. As soon as reasonably practicable after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of shares of Common Stock occurs, the Company will arrange the delivery to each Participant of the shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option in a form determined by the Administrator (in its sole discretion) and pursuant to rules established by the Administrator. The Company may permit or require that shares be deposited directly with a broker designated by the Company or to a designated agent of the Company, and the Company may utilize electronic or automated methods of share transfer. The Company may require that shares be retained with such broker or agent for a designated period of time and/or may establish other procedures to permit tracking of disqualifying dispositions of such shares. No Participant will have any voting, dividend, or other stockholder rights with respect to shares of Common Stock subject to any option granted under the Plan until such shares have been purchased and delivered to the Participant as provided in this Section 9.

10. Withdrawal.

(a) A Participant may withdraw all but not less than all the Contributions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time prior to the last thirty (30) days of the applicable Offering Period by (i) submitting to the Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) a written notice of withdrawal in the form determined by the Administrator for such purpose (which may be similar to the form attached hereto as Exhibit C), or (ii) following an electronic or other withdrawal procedure determined by the Administrator; provided, that a Participant may not withdraw

8

during any blackout period applicable to such Participant. All of the Participant’s Contributions credited to his or her account will be paid to such Participant promptly and as soon as administratively feasible after receipt of notice of withdrawal by the Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) and such Participant’s option for the Offering Period will be automatically terminated, and no further Contributions for the purchase of shares will be made for such Offering Period. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, Contributions will not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering Period, unless the Participant re-enrolls in the Plan by submitting a subscription agreement to the Company’s designated third-party broker/plan administrator prior to the commencement of such succeeding Offering Period.

(b) A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws.

11. Termination of Employment. Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee, for any reason, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the Contributions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period but not yet used to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan will be returned to such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto under Section 15 of the Plan, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator in a manner that, with respect to an Offering under the 423 Component, is permitted by, and compliant with, Section 423 of the Code, a Participant whose employment transfers between entities through a termination with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by the Company or a Designated Company shall not be treated as terminated under the Plan; provided, however, that no Participant shall be deemed to switch from an Offering under the Non-423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component or vice versa unless (and then only to the extent) such switch would not cause the 423 Component or any Option thereunder to fail to comply with Section 423 of the Code.

12. Interest. No interest will accrue on the Contributions of a participant in the Plan, except as may be required by Applicable Law, as determined by the Company, and if so required by the laws of a particular jurisdiction, shall, with respect to Offerings under the 423 Component, apply to all Participants in the relevant Offering, except to the extent otherwise permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f).

13. Stock.

(a) Subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 19 hereof, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for the issuance of shares pursuant to the Plan shall be no more than 1,525,000 shares, which number shall be automatically increased on the first day of each fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the Effective Date falls in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) 0.75% of the total number of all classes of the Company’s common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (y) a lower number of shares of Common Stock as determined by the Board. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13(a) to the contrary, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or transferred pursuant to the rights granted under the 423 Component of the Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of 12,825,000 shares, subject to Section 19.

(b) Until the shares of Common Stock are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), a Participant will only have the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such shares, and no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to such shares.

9

(c) Shares of Common Stock to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse.

14. Administration. The Plan will be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee will be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws. To the extent not prohibited by Applicable Laws, the Committee may, from time to time, delegate some or all of its authority under the Plan to the Administrator as it deems necessary, appropriate or advisable under conditions or limitations that it may set at or after the time of the delegation. For purposes of the Plan, all references to the Committee will be deemed to refer to the Administrator to whom the Committee delegates authority pursuant to this Section 14. The Administrator will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, to designate separate Offerings under the Plan, to designate Subsidiaries and Affiliates as participating in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component, to determine eligibility, to adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the Plan and to establish such procedures that it deems necessary for the administration of the Plan (including, without limitation, to adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit the participation in the Plan by employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the U.S., the terms of which sub-plans may take precedence over other provisions of the Plan, with the exception of Section 13(a) hereof, but unless otherwise superseded by the terms of such sub-plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern the operation of such sub-plan). Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the employees eligible to participate in each sub-plan will participate in a separate Offering and will be in the Non-423 Component, unless such designation would cause the 423 Component to violate the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding eligibility to participate, the definition of Compensation, handling of Contributions, making of Contributions to the Plan (including, without limitation, in forms other than payroll deductions), establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold Contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax, determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates that vary with applicable local requirements. The Administrator also is authorized to determine that, to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f), the terms of an option granted under the Plan or an Offering to citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction will be less favorable than the terms of options granted under the Plan or the same Offering to employees resident solely in the U.S. Every finding, decision and determination made by the Administrator will, to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties.

15. Designation of Beneficiary.

(a) If permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares of Common Stock and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, if permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the option. If a Participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent will be required for such designation to be effective.

(b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by notice to the Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) in a form determined by the Administrator. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company will deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other Person as the Company may designate.

10

(c) All beneficiary designations will be in such form and manner as the Administrator may designate from time to time. Notwithstanding Sections 15(a) and (b) above, the Company and/or the Administrator may decide not to permit such designations by Participants in non-U.S. jurisdictions to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f).

16. Transferability. Neither Contributions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares of Common Stock under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition will be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof.

17. Use of Funds. The Company may use all Contributions received or held by it under the Plan for any corporate purpose, and the Company will not be obligated to segregate such Contributions except under Offerings or for Participants in the Non-423 Component for which Applicable Laws require that Contributions to the Plan by Participants be segregated from the Company’s general corporate funds and/or deposited with an independent third party.

18. Reports. Individual accounts will be maintained for each Participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Eligible Employees at least annually, which statements will set forth the amounts of Contributions, the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Common Stock purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.

19. Adjustments, Dissolution, Liquidation, Merger or Change in Control.

(a) Adjustments. In the event that any subdivision or consolidation of outstanding shares of Common Stock, declaration of a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or other stock split, other recapitalization or capital reorganization of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation or entity, the adoption by the Company of any plan of exchange affecting the Common Stock or any distribution to holders of Common Stock of securities or property (other than normal cash dividends or dividends payable in Common Stock), the Committee, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number and class of Common Stock that may be delivered under the Plan, the Purchase Price per share and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan that has not yet been exercised, and the numerical limits of Sections 7 and 13 of the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may not delegate its authority to make adjustments pursuant to this Section 19(a).

(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any Offering Period then in progress will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date, and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator. The New Exercise Date will be before the date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) will notify each Participant in writing or electronically, prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

11

(c) Merger or Change in Control. In the event of a merger or Change in Control, each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the option, the Offering Period with respect to which such option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such Offering Period shall end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the Company’s proposed merger or Change in Control. The Company’s stock administration office (or its designee) will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

20. Amendment or Termination.

If the Offering Periods are terminated prior to expiration, all amounts then credited to Participants’ accounts that have not been used to purchase shares of Common Stock will be returned to the Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under Applicable Laws, as further set forth in Section 12 hereof) as soon as administratively practicable.

(c) In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to:

(i) amending the Plan to conform with the safe harbor definition under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor thereto), including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time;

(ii) altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period or Purchase Period including an Offering Period or Purchase Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price;

22. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

(a) Shares of Common Stock will not be issued with respect to an option unless the exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto will comply with all applicable provisions of law, domestic or foreign, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the shares may then be listed, and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

23. Data Protection. By participating in the Plan or accepting any rights granted under it, each Participant consents to the collection and processing of personal data relating to the Participant so that the Company and its Affiliates can fulfill their obligations and exercise their rights under the Plan and generally administer and manage the Plan. This data will include, but may not be limited to, data about participation in the Plan and shares offered or received, purchased, or sold under the Plan from time to time and other appropriate financial and other data about the Participant and the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

24. Code Section 409A. The 423 Component of the Plan is exempt from the application of Code Section 409A and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so be exempt from Code Section 409A. In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that an option granted under the Plan may be subject to Code Section 409A or that any provision in the Plan would cause an option under the Plan to be subject to Code Section 409A, the Administrator may amend the terms of the Plan and/or of an outstanding option granted under the Plan, or take such other action the Administrator determines is necessary or appropriate, in each case, without the Participant’s consent, to exempt any outstanding option or future option that may be granted under the Plan from or to allow any such options to comply with Code Section 409A, but only to the extent any such amendments or action by the Administrator would not violate Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no liability to a Participant or any other party if the option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Code Section 409A is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Administrator with respect thereto. The Company makes no representation that the option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan is compliant with Code Section 409A.

29. Severability. If any provision of the Plan is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason in any jurisdiction or as to any Participant, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as to such jurisdiction or Participant as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had not been included.
