Initial Public Offering (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering approved in accordance with this Agreement, the Members hereby agree to discuss in good faith whether any of the rights and obligations of the parties hereto and the Company under this Agreement should be amended, restructured or terminated, including, without limitation, whether any of the rights set forth in Section 4.01(d) or 8.04 hereof should be terminated or made subject to any time limitations (or time and volume limitations in the case of Section 5.04 hereof), in order to permit the Initial Public Offering to be effected in a manner consistent with applicable Law, market custom and the recommendations of the Global Coordinators in light of market conditions at such time and the listing requirements of the exchange or market on which the Initial Public Offering is to be effected, taking into account, among other things, the rights of the Preferred Members hereunder and their goal and expectation that the Preferred Payment be effected as promptly as practicable after the date hereof; provided, however, that this sentence shall not in any way either (x) obligate any of the Members or the Company to agree to any amendment, restructuring or termination of any such rights or (y) affect or nullify any rights or obligations of the Members or the Company under this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering of the Company (or its successor corporation) or any newly formed corporation as described below, approved in accordance with this Agreement, and upon the request of the Board of Managers, each of the Members hereby agrees that it will, at the expense of the Entity subject to such Public Offering, take such action and execute such documents as may reasonably be necessary to effect such Public Offering as expeditiously as possible, including, without limitation, taking all such actions and executing such documents as may reasonably be necessary to convert the Company into a corporation or to contribute its respective Securities to a newly formed corporation, in each case substantially concurrently with the closing of such Public Offering; provided, however, that in connection with any such conversion or contribution (i) each Preferred Member shall be entitled to receive preferred stock of the corporation whose shares of common stock are being sold in connection with such Public Offering with the same economic rights as such Preferred Member was entitled to prior to such conversion or contribution, including with an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the amount such Preferred Member would be entitled to receive, in respect of the Preferred Units which such Preferred Member held in the Company immediately prior to such conversion or contribution, under Section 5.02 hereof if a liquidation of the Company had occurred immediately prior to the consummation of such Public Offering with the proceeds in such liquidation equal in amount to the implied aggregate equity valuation of the Company (as reasonably determined by the Board of Managers in good faith with the reasonable agreement of a Majority in Interest of the Preferred Members) immediately prior to the consummation of such
Public Offering The Company is advised by you that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Securities as soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in your judgment is advisable.

Other Offerings The Company has not sold, issued or distributed any Securities during the six-month period preceding the date hereof, including any sales pursuant to Rule 144A under, or Regulation D or Regulation S of, the Act, other than Securities issued pursuant to employee benefit plans, qualified stock option plans or other employee compensation plans or pursuant to outstanding options, rights or warrants.
Subsidiary Public Offering If, after an initial Public Offering of the common equity securities of one of its Subsidiaries, the Company distributes securities of such Subsidiary to its equityholders, then the rights and obligations of the Company pursuant to this Agreement will apply, mutatis mutandis, to such Subsidiary, and the Company will cause such Subsidiary to comply with such Subsidiary’s obligations under this Agreement as if it were the Company hereunder.

Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings 2.3.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 2, but subject to Sections 2.4 and 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Registration Statement is on file with the Commission, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in (a) an underwritten registered offering not involving a “roadshow,” an offer commonly known as a “block trade” (a “Block Trade”) or (b) an “at the market” or similar registered offering through a broker, sales agent or distribution agent, whether as agent or principal, (an “Other Coordinated Offering”), in each case, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $25 million, then if such Demanding Holder requires any assistance from the Company pursuant to this Section 2.3, such Holder shall notify the Company promptly of the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering at least five (5) business days prior to the day such offering is to commence and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Company and any Underwriters or brokers, sales agents or placement agents (each, a “Financial Counterparty”) prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering.
2.3.2 Prior to the filing of the applicable “red xxxxxxx” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company, the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) and Financial Counterparty (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.3.2.
2.3.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 2.2 shall not apply to a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant to Section 2.3 of this Agreement.

2.3.5 A Demanding Holder in the aggregate may demand no more than four (4) Block Trades or Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section 2.3 in any twelve (12) month period. For the avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Offering pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 hereof.
Valid Offering Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the Securities will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and will have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.
Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto. If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate number of Firm Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Firm Shares are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In any such case either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate number of Additional Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to purchase the Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting Underwriters would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.
