• Issuance of Common Units in Connection with Reset of Incentive Distribution Rights (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.11, the holder of the Incentive Distribution Rights (or, if there is more than one holder of the Incentive Distribution Rights, the holders of a majority in interest of the Incentive Distribution Rights) shall have the right, at any time when there are no Subordinated Units Outstanding and the Partnership has made a distribution pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(v) for each of the four most recently completed Quarters and the amount of each such distribution did not exceed Adjusted Operating Surplus for such Quarter, to make an election (the “IDR Reset Election”) to cause the Minimum Quarterly Distribution and the Target Distributions to be reset in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.11(e) and, in connection therewith, the holder or holders of the Incentive Distribution Rights will become entitled to receive their respective proportionate share of a number of Common Units (the “IDR Reset Common Units”) derived by dividing (i) the average amount of the aggregate cash distributions made by the Partnership for the two full Quarters immediately preceding the giving of the Reset Notice in respect of the Incentive Distribution Rights by (ii) the average of the cash distributions made by the Partnership in respect of each Common Unit for the two full Quarters immediately preceding the giving of the Reset Notice (the number of Common Units determined by such quotient is referred to herein as the “Aggregate Quantity of IDR Reset Common Units”). If at the time of any IDR Reset Election the General Partner and its Affiliates are not the holders of a majority in interest of the Incentive Distribution Rights, then the IDR Reset Election shall be subject to the prior written concurrence of the General Partner that the conditions described in the immediately preceding sentence have been satisfied. Upon the issuance of such IDR Reset Common Units, the Partnership will issue to the General Partner an additional General Partner Interest (represented by hypothetical limited partner units) equal to the product of (x) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the Percentage Interest of the General Partner immediately prior to such issuance by (B) a percentage equal to 100% less such Percentage Interest by (y) the number of such IDR Reset Common Units, and the General Partner shall not be obligated to make any additional Capital Contribution to the Partnership in exchange for such issuance. The making of the IDR Reset Election in the manner specified in this Section 5.11 shall cause the Minimum Quarterly Distribution and the Target Distributions to be reset in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.11(e) and, in connection therewith, the holder or holders of the Incentive Distribution Rights will become entitled to receive IDR Reset Common Units and the General Partner will become entitled to receive an additional General Partner Interest on the basis specified above, without any further approval required by the General Partner or the Unitholders other than as set forth in this Section 5.11(a), at the time specified in Section 5.11(c) unless the IDR Reset Election is rescinded pursuant to Section 5.11(d).

• Initial Equity Grant No later than 45 days following the Commencement Date, the Company shall take such actions as shall be necessary to grant you the right to purchase (the “Stock Purchase Right”) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) equal to six percent (6%) of the Company’s outstanding capital stock as of the Commencement Date, calculated based on the Fully Diluted Capitalization of the Company (as defined in the next sentence) at a per-share purchase price equal to the per-share fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, as determined reasonably by the Board in good faith. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Fully Diluted Capitalization” includes all outstanding shares of capital stock plus all shares subject to issuance under outstanding options or warrants plus all shares of capital stock reserved for future issuance under the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) that are not subject to outstanding options or other equity awards plus, to the extent not already included in the foregoing, all shares purchased by you, or subject to your right to purchase, pursuant to this Section 3(d) and Section 3(f). The Stock Purchase Right will be granted under the Plan. Any shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of the Stock Purchase Right (the “Restricted Stock”) shall be subject to a right of repurchase in favor of the Company at the original purchase price thereof (the “Right of Repurchase”). The Restricted Stock shall vest, and the Right of Repurchase lapse, with respect to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the total shares of Restricted Stock on the first anniversary of the Commencement Date and with respect to 1/36th of such shares of Restricted Stock on each monthly anniversary of the Commencement Date thereafter so that the Restricted Stock shall be fully vested and the Right of Repurchase fully lapsed on the third anniversary of the Commencement Date, in each case, subject to your continued service to the Company hereunder except as otherwise provided herein. You will be permitted to purchase the shares of Restricted Stock using a full recourse promissory note, equal to the value of the entire purchase, in a form attached hereto as Exhibit A, to the Company bearing an interest rate equal to the Applicable Federal Rate. The Restricted Stock shall be subject to the terms of the Plan and a restricted stock purchase agreement (the “Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B to be entered into between you and the Company.

• Issuance of Units By executing the Reference Trust Agreement and receipt for deposited Securities, the Trustee will thereby acknowledge receipt of the deposit of the Securities listed in the Schedules to the Reference Trust Agreement and referred to in Section 2.01 hereof, and simultaneously with the receipt of said deposit, has recorded on its books the ownership, by the Depositor or such other person or persons as may be indicated by the Depositor, of the aggregate number of Units specified in the Reference Trust Agreement and has delivered, or on the order of the Depositor will deliver, in exchange for such Securities, cash or a Letter of Credit, documentation evidencing the ownership of the number of Units specified or, if requested by the Depositor, the ownership by DTC of all such Units and will cause such Units to be credited at DTC to the account of the Depositor or, pursuant to the Depositor's direction and as hereafter provided, the account of the issuer of the Letter of Credit referred to in Section 2.01. The number of Units in a Trust may be increased through a split of the Units or decreased through a reverse split thereof, as directed by the Depositor, on any day on which the Depositor is the only Unitholder of such Trust, which revised number of Units shall be recorded by the Trustee on its books. Effective as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, in the event that the aggregate value of Securities in the Trust has increased since the evaluation on September 30, 2014, the Trustee shall issue such number of additional Units to the Unitholder of outstanding Units as of the close of business on October 1, 2014, that the price per Unit computed as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, plus the maximum applicable sales charge shall equal approximately $10 per Unit (based on the number of Units outstanding as of said Evaluation Time, including the additional Units issued pursuant to this sentence); in the event that the aggregate value of Securities in the Trust Fund has decreased since the evaluation on September 30, 2014, there will be a reverse split of the outstanding Units, and said Unitholder will surrender to the Trustee for cancellation such number of Units, that the price per Unit computed as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, plus the maximum applicable sales charge shall equal approximately $10 per Unit (based on the number of Units outstanding as of said Evaluation Time, reflecting cancellation of Units pursuant to this sentence). The Trustee hereby agrees that on the date of any deposit of additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.05 it shall acknowledge that the additional Securities identified therein have been deposited with it by recording on its books the ownership, by the Depositor or such other person or persons as may be indicated by the Depositor, of the aggregate number of Units to be issued in respect of such additional Securities so deposited.
