Right of Participation At any time within the 12 months subsequent to the Closing, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of debt or Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to its investment amount but not more than 25% of the Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask the Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Business Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment. A Subsequent Financing shall exclude any equipment financing secured by a purchase money security interest If the Purchaser desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser has received the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the from the Purchaser as of such fifth (5th) Business Day, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate. If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchaser of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser has received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchaser seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, the Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its pro rata portion of the Participation Maximum. The Company must provide the Purchaser with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchaser will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 4.15, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Business Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice. The Company and the Purchaser agree that if the Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15and unless otherwise agreed to by the Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that the Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any Subsequent Financing.

Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may have with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests, as well as all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the absolute owners of such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower’s obligation under the Loan irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any holder of any interest in the Loan. Borrower further agrees that the purchaser of any such participation interests may enforce its interests irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have against Lender.
Participation Rights At least 20 days prior to any Transfer, in any one transaction or series of related transactions, by a holder of Class A Unit, Class B Units or Class C Units, of any Units (other than one or more Transfers (i) pursuant to a transaction pursuant to Section 10.3 or Section 15.7, (ii) to any Affiliate of the Investors or Contributors, as applicable, (iii) which are Exempt Transfers or (iv) to any current or former officer, employee, manager, director, member, partner or co-investor of the Investors or any of their Affiliates), such holder of Class A Units, Class B Units and/or Class C Units (the “Transferring Unitholder”) shall deliver a written notice (the “Sale Notice”) to the LLC and to each of the other Unitholders (the “Other Unitholders”), specifying in reasonable detail the number and class of Units to be Transferred and the terms and conditions of the contemplated Transfer. The Other Unitholders holding the same class or series of Units (with the Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units and Class D Units each being treated as a separate class or series for purposes of this Section 10.2) may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the Transferring Unitholder within 20 days after delivery of the Sale Notice (such Unitholders delivering such notice of election in accordance with this Section 10.2, collectively, the “Electing Unitholders”). Such participation shall be based upon the Pro Rata Share represented by the Units requested to be included in such Transfer by each Unitholder relative to the Pro Rata Share of all Units of such class or series held by the Unitholders participating in such Transfer (including the Transferring Unitholder). Each Electing Unitholder shall Transfer his, her or its Units on the same terms and conditions, with the aggregate consideration to be paid in connection with such Transfer allocated among each Unit included therein based on such Unit’s Pro Rata Share, determined based upon the Total Equity Value Proceeds implied by the price offered in the Sale Notice; provided that in the event that Units being transferred by the Transferring Unitholder are comprised solely of Class A Units or Class B Units, the aggregate consideration to be paid in connection with such Transfer shall be allocated based on the proportionate Class A Unreturned Capital and Class A Unpaid Yield, or Class B Unreturned Capital and Class B Unpaid Yield, as the case may be.
