Box 2208, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands, as security agent (the “Security Agent”) acting on behalf of the Senior Lender and the Junior Investor, pursuant to which ZHG has pledged 19,452,063 shares of the common stock (the “Pledged Shares”) of SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. (“SeaWorld”) to the Security Agent, acting on behalf of the Senior Lender and the Junior Investor, as collateral for ZHG’s and/or its Affiliates’ obligations to the Senior Lender and the Junior Investor under the Facility Agreement and the Investment Agreement, respectively, (iv) that certain Intercreditor Agreement, dated May 8, 2017 (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among ZHG Guarantor, the Senior Lender, ZHG, the Security Agent and the Junior Investor, and (v) that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated March 24, 2017 (the “SHA”), by and among SeaWorld, ZHG and Zhonghong Zhuoye Group Co. Ltd.

Representatives of the Security Agent have notified representatives of SeaWorld of its intention to transfer the Pledged Shares from ZHG to the name of the Security Agent (or its nominee) on the books of SeaWorld in connection with the enforcement of the Security Agent’s rights with respect to the Pledged Shares under the Security Agreement (the “Transfer”).  The Security Agent had previously informed SeaWorld and its representatives that the Senior Lender and the Junior Investor had notified ZHG that ZHG is in continuing default of its obligations to the Senior Lender and the Junior Investor under the Facility Agreement and the Investment Agreement, respectively. Pursuant to section 4.1 of the SHA, the Transfer is a Permitted Transfer (as defined in the SHA) under the SHA; provided that the Security Agent agrees to comply with the restrictions in section 4.1 of the SHA with respect to the Transfer.  Accordingly, as provided for in section 13 of the Security Agreement, the Security Agent, acting in its capacity as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of ZHG, requests SeaWorld to effect the Transfer in accordance with the SHA.

By executing this letter agreement (this “Agreement”), the Security Agent hereby represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees that:

Following execution of this Agreement, the Security Agent expressly instructs SeaWorld to, and SeaWorld agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause SeaWorld’s transfer agent, Computershare Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”), to, register the transfer of the Pledged Shares from ZHG to the Security Agent or its nominee.  The Security Agent acknowledges and agrees that, among other customary items that may be requested by the Transfer Agent, prior to such transfer being registered by the Transfer Agent, the Security Agent shall be required to deliver to the Transfer Agent (i) physical copies of the original share certificates representing the Pledged Shares, (ii) original copies of duly executed stock powers with respect to such share certificates, with medallion signature guarantees affixed thereto, and (iii) corporate resolutions or incumbency certificates reflecting that the person executing and delivering such stock powers had the authority to do so.

In accordance with Section 11.2 of that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated March 24, 2017 (the “RRA”), between SeaWorld and ZHG, following the registration of the transfer of the Pledged Shares to the Security Agent on SeaWorld’s books and records, the Security Agent hereby shall become a party to the RRA and the Security Agent agrees to be bound by, subject to and entitled to the benefits of the RRA, in each case, as a “Stockholder” thereunder, with respect to the Pledged Shares.  This Agreement shall constitute a counterpart to the RRA for purposes of Section 11.2 of the RRA.  In accordance with Section 11.4 of the RRA, the Security Agent hereby designates the following address for notices or communications to it under the RRA:
