I'm convinced Aldrich Killian had started some kind of deal with the Ten Rings to use their image as his work in war profitting. But I really don't know. The Mandarin wikia page says that Trevor went to the Ten Rings without the knowledge of Aldrich Killian, that is highly unlikely seeing how out of touch Trevor (Drunk and on Drugs) was in Iron Man 3.
