Step-In Rights 11.1 Without prejudice to the provisions of Schedule 4 (Performance Management) or to any remedy that the Authority may have (whether under this Agreement or otherwise):
11.1.1 where the Authority reasonably believes that the Operator’s failure to provide any part of the Services to the relevant Service Level or otherwise in accordance with this Agreement has an adverse, material impact on the business of the Authority or on the running of the Scheme;
11.1.2 where the Authority reasonably believes that the Operator is about to commit such a failure which, if committed, would have such an impact;
11.1.3 where the Authority considers it necessary in order to carry out any of its statutory obligations, functions or other duties;
11.1.4 on the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event; or
11.1.5 on the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of the Operator, the Authority may, by giving such written notice to the Operator as the Authority considers reasonable in the circumstances, exercise its right under Clause 11.2.
11.2 In the circumstances set out in Clause 11.1 the Authority may make arrangements for the Authority to provide and perform itself or through another contractor, such part of the Services as it decides in its discretion. Where any failure on the Operator's part is, in the reasonable opinion of the Authority, due to the failure of the Operator's management or supervisory staff to perform their work adequately or at all, or is due to the absence or insufficiency of such staff, the Authority may cause the relevant Services to be managed and supervised by the Authority's own staff, or the staff of another contractor and the Operator shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder insofar as they relate directly to the Services removed from its control and only during the period the Services are removed from its control.
11.3 Where the Authority exercises its right pursuant to Clause 11.2, the Operator shall:-
11.3.1 provide the Authority and Authority Personnel such access as is necessary for the Authority to exercise its right;
11.3.2 grant and procure that any Sub-Contractor or relevant third party grants the Authority such licences as are reasonably required (for itself or a contractor appointed to perform the step-in services) for the purposes of the Authority exercising its right;
11.3.3 afford (and procure that its Sub-Contractors afford) to the Authority (and any contractor appointed to perform the step-in services) such co-operation and access to any of the Operator's Intellectual Property, the Third Party Intellectual Property, Operator systems, premises, equipment, documents, information or other items as are reasonably required for the purposes of exercising its right; and
11.3.4 reimburse the Authority for any Losses incurred in taking the actions described in Clause 11.2.

Repurchase Rights If the Optionee for any reason whatsoever ----------------- (including without limitation death, disability, or voluntary or involuntary termination) ceases to be employed by the Company or Banyan Worldwide, or providing services on behalf of the Company or Banyan Worldwide, prior to the date specified in Section 8(d) below for the expiration of these restrictions, then during the 90-day period following such termination the Company may elect, by written notice delivered to the Optionee, to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares, at a price per share equal to the fair market value of such Shares as of the close of business on the date of termination of the Optionee's employment. Such fair market value shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Company and the Optionee.

Liquidation Rights In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of the Partnership under Section 12.4 or a sale, exchange, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, either voluntary or involuntary, the Record Holders of the Series C Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Partnership available for distribution to the Partners or any Assignees, prior and in preference to any distribution of any assets of the Partnership to the Record Holders of any other class or series of Partnership Interests other than the Series B Preferred Units, (i) first, any accumulated and unpaid distributions on the Series C Preferred Units (regardless of whether previously declared) and (ii) then, any positive value in each such holder’s Capital Account in respect of such Series C Preferred Units; provided, however, that so long as any Series B Preferred Units are Outstanding, no liquidating distribution shall be paid or set aside for payment on any Series C Preferred Units unless and until the full amount of the Series B Liquidation Value has been distributed in respect of Outstanding Series B Preferred Units in accordance with Section 5.10(b)(iv). If in the year of such liquidation and winding up, or sale, exchange, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, any such Record Holder’s Capital Account in respect of such Series C Preferred Units is less than the aggregate Series C Base Liquidation Preference of such Series C Preferred Units, then, after the allocations specified in Section 5.10(b)(iv) have been made, but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and prior to any other allocation pursuant to this Agreement for such year and any distribution pursuant to the preceding sentence, items of gross income and gain shall be allocated to all Unitholders then holding Series C Preferred Units, Pro Rata, until the Capital Account in respect of each Outstanding Series C Preferred Unit is equal to the Series C Base Liquidation Preference (and no other allocation pursuant to this Agreement shall reverse the effect of such allocation). If in the year of such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up any such Record Holder’s Capital Account in respect of such Series C Preferred Units is less than the aggregate Series C Base Liquidation Preference of such Series C Preferred Units after the application of the preceding sentence, then to the extent permitted by applicable law and after making any allocations required under Section 5.10(b)(iv), but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, items of gross income and gain for any preceding taxable period(s) with respect to which IRS Form 1065 Schedules K-1 have not been filed by the Partnership shall be reallocated to all Unitholders then holding Series C Preferred Units, Pro Rata, until the Capital Account in respect of each such Outstanding Series C Preferred Unit after making allocations pursuant to this and the immediately preceding sentence is equal to the Series C Base Liquidation Preference (and no other allocation pursuant to this Agreement shall reverse the effect of such allocation). After such allocations have been made to the Outstanding Series C Preferred Units, any remaining Net Termination Gain or Net Termination Loss shall be allocated to the Partners pursuant to Section 6.1(c) or Section 6.1(d), as the case may be. At the time of the dissolution of the Partnership, subject to Section 17-804 of the Delaware Act, the Record Holders of the Series C Preferred Units shall become entitled to receive any distributions in respect of the Series C Preferred Units that are accrued and unpaid as of the date of such distribution, and shall have the status of, and shall be entitled to all remedies available to, a creditor of the Partnership, and such entitlement of the Record Holders of the Series C Preferred Units to such accrued and unpaid distributions shall have priority over any entitlement of any other Partners or Assignees with respect to any distributions by the Partnership to such other Partners or Assignees except for distributions in respect of Series B Preferred Units pursuant to Section 5.10(b)(iv); provided, however, that the General Partner, as such, will have no liability for any obligations with respect to such distributions to any Record Holder(s) of Series C Preferred Units.
