(a) Until the 60th day after the Closing Date, Seller shall be permitted to offer all of the Transferred Class M Common Units to any third-party who may have an interest in purchasing all of the Transferred Class M Common Units. If any such third-party (each, a “Third-Party Purchaser”) expresses a firm interest in purchasing all of the Transferred Class M Common Units for (i) a price in cash greater than the Purchase Price, (ii) a price in Seller Notes with a fair market value, as reasonably determined by Seller, greater than the Purchase Price, or (iii) a price in a combination of cash and Seller Notes with a fair market value, as reasonably determined by Seller, the sum of which is greater than the Purchase Price, then Seller and such Third-Party Purchaser may enter into a letter of intent (with respect to each Third-Party Purchaser, the “Third-Party Letter of Intent”) setting forth the principal terms on which the Third-Party Purchaser is willing to purchase the Transferred Class M Common Units. Seller shall provide to Purchaser copies of any Third-Party Letters of Intent promptly after they are executed by Seller.

Without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which written consent may be delivered by e-mail, Seller shall not provide, and shall cause its respective officers and management employees to not provide, to any Third-Party Purchaser, directly or indirectly, any information, written or oral, with respect to the Transferred Class M Common Units, the Bank or IB Finance to any Third-Party Purchaser that would be considered “Evaluation Material” as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement prior to the execution of the Confidentiality Agreement by such Third-Party Purchaser. From and after the execution of the Confidentiality Agreement by such Third-Party Purchaser, Seller shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed of the progress of such Third-Party Purchaser’s due diligence with respect to the possible transaction and shall copy Purchaser on all distributions of written materials to such Third-Party Purchaser.

(c) If Seller’s senior management determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and financial advisors, that a transaction with such Third-Party Purchaser is reasonably likely to be completed, taking into account such financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of such proposed transaction as Seller’s senior management and their counsel and advisors reasonably deem appropriate, and Seller determines to enter into a transaction to sell the Transferred Class M Units to a particular Third-Party Purchaser, then such Third-Party Purchaser (the “New Purchaser”) and Seller shall enter into a membership interest purchase letter agreement (the “Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement”), which shall constitute a binding offer to purchase the Transferred Class M Common Units for a period of no less than the number of days equal to (i) the number of days from the date of the execution of the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement until the 60th day after the Closing Date plus (ii) at least 20 Business Days, and shall set forth, among other things, (1) (A) if cash shall be offered as consideration, the New Purchaser’s purchase price (the “New Purchase Price”), (B) if Seller Notes shall be offered as consideration, the CUSIP numbers and face value of all such Seller Notes or (C) if a combination of cash and Seller Notes shall be offered as consideration, (I) the amount of cash (the “Cash Portion”) and (II) the CUSIP numbers and face value of all such Seller Notes (the “Partial Debt Consideration”) and (2) any amendments or modifications to the terms and conditions hereof that the New Purchaser and Seller would agree to make to this Agreement if the New Purchaser and Seller had originally executed this Agreement (such amendments or modifications collectively, the “Proposed Amendments”). Except for the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement with the New Purchaser, Seller shall not enter into any contract, agreement, commitment, undertaking or other arrangement with any Third-Party Purchaser with respect to the Transferred Class M Units. Immediately upon executing the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (i) a copy of the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement and (ii) a notice (the “Superior Offer Notice”) informing Purchaser that Seller intends to accept the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement in the event that Purchaser does not elect to retain the Transferred Class M Common Units pursuant to Section 5.4(d).

(iii) If the consideration to be paid by the New Purchaser is a combination of cash and Seller Notes, within two Business Days of receipt of the Superior Offer Notice, Purchaser and Seller shall determine the First Partial Value. Within eight Business Days of such determination, Purchase shall elect by notice in writing to Seller either:

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, if Purchaser elects to transfer the Transferred Class M Common Units pursuant to this Section 5.4(d), in accordance with the Unit Assignment, from and after the Closing Date through the New Purchase Agreement Closing Date, Purchaser shall be the holder, beneficially and of record, of the Transferred Class M Common Units and shall bear the assumed obligations and liabilities under the Effective IB Finance LLC Agreement.

(e) If at any time after the New Purchase Agreement Closing Date, the New Purchaser shall consider or be advised that any assurances or any other actions or things are reasonably necessary to vest, perfect or confirm ownership (of record or otherwise) in the New Purchaser its title or interest in the Transferred Class M Common Units, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver all bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, powers of attorney, assignments and assurances and take and do all such other actions and things as may be reasonably requested by the New Purchaser in order to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Class M Common Units, as applicable; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have no obligation to make any representations or warranties with respect to the Transferred Class M Common Units other than those representations and warranties contained in the Purchaser Unit Assignment.

If such quotations vary by less than five percentage points, then the value of the applicable Seller Notes shall be the average of such two quotations. If such quotations vary by more than five percentage points, then Purchaser and Seller shall immediately jointly contact a third Broker-Dealer, the cost and expense of which, if any, shall be shared equally by Purchaser and Seller, who shall be asked to provide on the date of such contact a quotation of the fair market value of the applicable Seller Notes as of 11:00 a.m. eastern time on the date of the execution of the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement, and the final value of the applicable Seller Notes as of 11:00 a.m. eastern time on the date of the execution of the Membership Interest Purchase Letter Agreement shall be the average of all three Broker-Dealer quotations.

(ii) If the consideration to be paid by the New Purchaser includes Seller Notes, on the New Purchase Agreement Closing Date, Purchaser and Seller shall each immediately contact one Broker-Dealer at its sole cost and expense, each of which shall be asked to provide on the date of such contact a quotation of the fair market value of the applicable Seller Notes as of 11:00 a.m. eastern time on the New Purchase Agreement Closing Date.

Purchaser and Seller shall review all of the Affiliate Agreements and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts either to, within 180 days following the Closing Date, terminate each such Affiliate Agreement or modify the terms of each such Affiliate Agreement, as applicable and necessary, so that the terms thereof are at least as favorable to Seller’s Affiliate that is a party thereto and the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliate that is a party thereto, respectively, as could be obtained through arm’s length negotiations between unrelated parties. The terms of any new or modified Affiliate Agreement between Seller’s Affiliate, on the one hand, and the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliate, on the other hand, shall be subject to all applicable Laws and regulatory review, and the parties agree to cause their applicable Affiliates to timely seek all necessary regulatory review for any such modifications.

If the Indemnifying Person does not so elect to assume such defense in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.6, the Indemnified Person may defend such claim, suit, action or proceeding in such manner as the Indemnified Person may deem appropriate, including settling such claim or action or proceeding (after giving notice of the same to the Indemnifying Person) on such terms as the Indemnified Person may deem appropriate, and the Indemnifying Person shall assist and cooperate with such defense in accordance with Section 5.2 and, if liable pursuant to this Article 8, shall promptly indemnify the Indemnified Person in accordance with the provisions of this Article 8.

8.8 Net Losses; Subrogation; Mitigation.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of any Losses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Person shall be calculated after giving effect to (i) any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Losses, but only if the insurance premium relating to such proceeds has not been paid for by the Indemnified Person, (ii) any tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) arising from the facts or circumstances giving rise to such Losses and from the payment of any amounts to the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) on account of any Losses and (iii) any other recoveries directly relating to such Loss obtained by the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) from any other third party, less all Losses related to the pursuing and receipt of such recoveries and any related recoveries. Each Indemnified Person shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such proceeds, benefits and recoveries; provided, that no party shall be required to use such efforts if they would be detrimental in any material respect to such party. If any such net proceeds, benefits or recoveries are received by an Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to any Losses after an Indemnifying Person has made a payment to the Indemnified Person with respect thereto, the Indemnified Person (or such Affiliate) shall pay to the Indemnifying Person the amount of such net proceeds, benefits or recoveries (up to the amount of the Indemnifying Person’s payment).

(b) Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Person in respect of any Losses, the Indemnifying Person shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) against any insurance company or any other third party from which the Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) has contractual indemnity rights, in respect of the Losses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) and Indemnifying Person shall execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights.

(c) Purchaser and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses, whether by asserting claims against a third party or by otherwise qualifying for a benefit that would reduce or eliminate an indemnified matter; provided, that no party shall be required to use such efforts if they would be detrimental in any material respect to such party.

8.9 Special Rule for Fraud. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a breach of a representation or warranty by any party to this Agreement that constitutes fraud, the representation or warranty that has been breached will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (regardless of any investigation made by any party to this Agreement or on its behalf) and will continue in full force and effect for perpetuity, and any Losses from any such breach shall not be subject to the indemnification basket, cap or other limitations contained in this Article 8

Purchaser shall be responsible for payment of Taxes that relate to the Transferred Class M Common Units after the Closing. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the parties agree that any changes to Taxes attributable to the Transferred Class M Common Units for all tax periods prior to the Closing which would have affected the value of the Transferred Class M Common Units as of the Closing Date, if they had been recorded as of such date, shall be treated as a purchase price adjustment for income Tax purposes.

(b) To the extent that any Tax refunds are received by Seller relating to the periods prior to the Closing, and any amounts credited against Taxes to which Seller becomes entitled, that relate to the Transferred Notes and to such periods shall be paid to Purchaser, but only to the extent that such amounts have a real economic impact on Purchaser in jurisdictions where it files its Tax Returns as a separate company.
