For the avoidance of doubt, the rights granted to BCP to designate members of the Board are additive to, and not intended to limit in any way, the rights that BCP or its Affiliates may have to nominate, elect or remove directors under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including with respect to any applicable fiduciary duties under Delaware law), to take all Necessary Action to effectuate the above by; (A) including the persons designated pursuant to this Section 2.1 in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election at any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors, (B) nominating and recommending each such individual to be elected as a director as provided herein, (C) soliciting proxies or consents in favor thereof, and (D) without limiting the foregoing, otherwise using its reasonable best efforts to cause such nominees to be elected to the Board, including providing at least as high a level of support for the election of such nominees as it provides to any other individual standing for election as a director. The Company is entitled to identify such individual(s) nominated pursuant to Section 2.1(b) as a BCP Director pursuant to this Agreement. (e) At any time the members of the Board are allocated among separate classes of directors, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) the BCP Directors shall be in different classes of directors to the extent practicable and (ii) the Company shall consult with BCP regarding the class or classes of directors to which the BCP Directors shall be designated and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action, including using their reasonable best efforts, to cause the BCP Directors to be designated to the class or classes requested by BCP. (f) So long as BCP is entitled to designate one or more nominees pursuant to Section 2.1(b), BCP shall have the right to request the removal of any BCP Director (with or without cause) nominated by BCP, from time to time and at any time, from the Board, exercisable upon written notice to the Company, and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause such removal. (g) So long as BCP Beneficially Owns at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Company shall take all Necessary Action to cause any committee of the Board to include in its membership at least one BCP Director, except to the extent that such membership would violate applicable securities laws or stock exchange or stock market rules. (h) Nothing in this Section 2.1 shall be deemed to require that any party hereto, or any Affiliate thereof, act or be in violation of any applicable provision of law, regulation, legal duty or requirement or stock exchange or stock market rule. (i) In the event that a vacancy is created on the Board at any time by the death, disability, resignation or removal (whether by BCP or otherwise in accordance with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as either may be amended or restated from time to time) of a BCP Director, BCP shall be entitled to designate an individual to fill the vacancy so long as the total number of persons that will serve on the Board as BCP Directors immediately following the filling of such vacancy will not exceed the total number of persons BCP is entitled to designate pursuant to Section 2.1(b) on the date of such replacement designation. The Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause such replacement BCP Director to become a member of the Board. (j) In the event that the number of nominees that BCP is entitled to designate pursuant to Section 2.1(a) decreases below the number of BCP Directors then on the Board, to the extent requested by the nominating and corporate governance committee, BCP shall promptly cause a number of BCP Directors to resign from service on the Board (and all committees thereof on which such BCP Director serves) so that the number of BCP Directors is no greater than the number of nominees BCP is entitled to designate pursuant to Section 2.1(b), and promptly thereafter the Company shall take all Necessary Action to cause the Board to cause the size of the Board to decrease by such number and to remove such BCP Director from office.
