THE TRANSACTION

Section 2.01 The Closing. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date which is two (2) Business Days after the date on which all conditions set forth in Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and Section 7.03 shall have been satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) or such other time and place as Parent and the Company may mutually agree. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

Section 2.02 The Mergers.

(a) The Public Merger.

(i) Substantially contemporaneously with the Closing, the parties shall cause the Public Merger to be consummated by filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Secretary of State”) (A) a certificate of merger in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Merger”) and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, and (B) all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL in order to consummate the Public Merger. The Public Merger shall become effective at the time the Certificate of Xxxxxx has been filed with the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later effective time and date that is agreed to by the Company and Parent

and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”). As a result of the Public Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub Inc. shall cease and the Company shall continue its existence as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (or a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent) under the Laws of the State of Delaware. The Company, in its capacity as the corporation surviving the Public Merger, is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “Surviving Corporation.”

(ii) The Public Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub Inc., and all of the obligations, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub Inc. shall become the obligations, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

(iii) At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the Public Merger to read in the form of the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation attached to Exhibit A hereto, and as so amended and restated shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation.

(iv) From and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of Merger Sub shall be the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation, in each case, to hold office in accordance with the DGCL and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in accordance with the DGCL and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) The LP Mergers.

(i) Substantially contemporaneously with the Closing, the parties shall cause the LP Mergers to be consummated by causing to be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (A) the certificates of merger in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “LP Certificates of Merger”) and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DLPA, and (B) all other filings or recordings required under the DLPA in order to consummate the LP Mergers. The LP Mergers shall become effective at the time the applicable LP Certificates of Merger have been filed with the Delaware Secretary of State or at such later effective time and date that is agreed to by the Company and Parent and specified in the LP Certificates of Merger (the “LP Mergers Effective Time”). As a result of the LP Mergers, the separate existence of Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Merger Sub III shall cease and each Operating Partnership shall continue its existence as a surviving partnership and a Subsidiary of Parent (or a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent) under the Laws of the State of Delaware. Each Operating Partnership, in its capacity as the limited partnership surviving the LP Mergers, is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “Surviving Limited Partnership” and, collectively, the “Surviving Limited Partnerships.”

(ii) The LP Mergers shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the LP Certificates of Merger and the applicable provisions of the DLPA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the LP Mergers Effective Time, the Surviving Limited Partnership of each LP Merger shall possess all property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of, as applicable, the Operating Partnership and Merger Sub that are constituents to such LP Merger, and all of the obligations, liabilities and duties of, as applicable, the Operating Partnership and Merger Sub that are constituents to such LP Merger shall become the obligations, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Limited Partnership of such LP Merger.

(iii) At the LP Mergers Effective Time, (A) the certificate of limited partnership of each Operating Partnership in effect immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time (as amended by the applicable merger certificate) shall be the certificate of limited partnership of the applicable Surviving Limited Partnership, and (B) the limited partnership agreement of each Operating Partnership in effect immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall be the limited partnership agreement of the applicable Surviving Limited Partnership, in each case, until thereafter amended in accordance with the DLPA and as provided in such limited partnership agreement.

(iv) From and after the LP Mergers Effective Time, (A) the General Partner shall continue as the general partner of each Surviving Limited Partnership, Parent (or a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent) shall be admitted as a limited partner of each Surviving Limited Partnership and each Surviving Limited Partnership shall be continued without dissolution, and (B) the officers of the General Partner of each Operating Partnership immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall be the officers of the General Partner of the Surviving Limited Partnership surviving the LP Merger to which such Operating Partnership is a constituent, each to hold office in accordance with the limited partnership agreement of such Surviving Limited Partnership until their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in accordance with the limited partnership agreement of such Surviving Limited Partnership, as the case may be.

ARTICLE III

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

Section 3.01 Effect of Public Merger on Capital Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Public Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub Inc. or the Company or the holders of any of the following securities, the following shall occur:

(a) Conversion of Company Class A Common Stock. Each share of Company Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding any Cancelled Shares, any Dissenting Shares and any unvested Company Restricted Stock Awards to be cancelled without payment in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.06(c)) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $11.15 (such amount of cash, as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.01(f), is hereinafter referred to as the “Public Merger Consideration”), payable to the

holder thereof, without interest, in accordance with Section 3.03(or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, in accordance with Section 3.04). All of the shares of Company Class A Common Stock converted into the Public Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such a share of Company Class A Common Stock represented by a certificate (each, a “Certificate”) and each holder of such a non-certificated share of Company Class A Common Stock represented by book-entry (each, a “Book-Entry Share”), in each case, outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 3.03 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, in accordance with Section 3.04), the Public Merger Consideration, without interest.

(b) Cancellation of Company Class B Common Stock. All shares of Company Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and shall cease to exist and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

(c) Cancellation of Certain Company Common Stock. All shares of Company Common Stock that are owned directly by Parent, Merger Sub Inc. or any of their Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time or held in treasury of the Company (the “Cancelled Shares”) shall be cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and shall cease to exist and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

(d) Conversion of Merger Sub Inc. Common Stock. Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub Inc. issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Treatment of Company Warrants. Each Company Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall survive the Public Merger and remain outstanding, but shall, upon any subsequent exercise of such Company Warrant (by delivery to the Surviving Corporation of the exercise notice and exercise price pursuant to the terms of such Company Warrant), be entitled to receive only the Warrant Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock for which such Company Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Closing; provided that the holder of any Company Warrant may notify the Company (or, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) in accordance with the terms of such Company Warrant before the 30th day after a Change of Control (as defined in each Company Warrant) that such holder is exercising the holder’s right to cause the Company to purchase such Company Warrant from such holder for the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of such Company Warrant in accordance with its terms; provided, further, that in no event may any holder of Company Warrants receive both the Warrant Consideration and the Black-Scholes Value in exchange for such Company Warrant.

(f) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if any change in the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock has occurred, is occurring or shall occur by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares (including as a result of any Operating Partnership Units being exchanged into shares of Company Class A Common Stock), or any stock dividend or stock distribution thereon or unit dividend or unit distribution on the Operating Partnership Units (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Capital Stock or Operating Partnership Units, as appropriate) with a record date during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the Public Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 3.01(f) shall be construed to permit any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 6.01).

Section 3.02 Effect of LP Mergers on Operating Partnership Units. At the LP Mergers Effective Time, by virtue of the LP Mergers and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, Merger Sub III or the Operating Partnerships or their respective partners, the following shall occur:

(a) Conversion of Certain Operating Partnership Units. Each LP Class A Unit, LP Class A-1 Unit, LP Class E Unit, LP Class P Unit and LP Class P-4 Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time that is vested at the LP Mergers Effective Time or vests as a result of the consummation of the Transactions, in each case, in accordance with the Operating Partnership LPAs and any applicable award agreement (but excluding any Cancelled Units and Unvested Units) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into and shall thereafter represent the right to receive an amount in cash equal to its applicable LP Merger Consideration, payable to the holder thereof, without interest, in accordance with Section 3.03 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, in accordance with Section 3.04). All of the Operating Partnership Units converted into the LP Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such an Operating Partnership Unit represented by a certificate (each, a “LP Certificate”) and each holder of such a non-certificated Operating Partnership Unit represented by book-entry (each, a “Book-Entry Unit”), in each case, outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to receive, upon surrender of such LP Certificates or Book-Entry Units in accordance with Section 3.03 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, in accordance with Section 3.04), the LP Merger Consideration, without interest. The LP Merger Consideration payable in respect of each Operating Partnership Unit shall be set forth in a schedule to be prepared by the Company and delivered to Parent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to Closing, and (i) all amounts and allocations set forth in such schedule shall be conclusive and binding upon the Operating Partnerships and each holder of Operating Partnership Units, (ii) the parties acknowledge and agree that the Parent Related Parties shall be entitled to rely on such schedule as setting forth a true, correct and complete listing of all items set forth in such schedule, (iii) none of the Parent Related Parties or, after Closing, the Company Related Parties shall have any obligation to verify the accuracy of such schedule, (iv) none of the Parent Related Parties shall have any liability or obligation to any Person, including any holder of Operating Partnership Units, for any liabilities arising from or relating to errors, omissions or inaccuracies in calculating the LP Merger Consideration payable in respect of each Operating Partnership Unit and (v) the letter of transmittal required to be completed, executed and delivered by holders of Operating Partnership Units in accordance with Section 3.03 shall (x) set forth all of the foregoing and (y) include a release by the applicable holder of Operating Partnership Units of any purported or actual inaccuracy contained in such spreadsheet or any failure of such spreadsheet to allocate the LP Merger Consideration in accordance with the Operating Partnership LPAs, Applicable Law, this Agreement or any Contract governing or relating to any Operating Partnership Unit.

(b) Cancellation of Unvested Operating Partnership Units, LP Profit Sharing Interests and LP Class C Units. Effective as of the Effective Time, the Acquired Companies will take all steps required prior to the Effective Time to cancel and retire without any conversion thereof any (i) Operating Partnership Unit held by a Company Service Provider that is unvested at the LP Mergers Effective Time and that does not vest as a result of the consummation of the Transactions, in each case, in accordance with the Operating Partnership LPAs and any applicable award agreement (the “Unvested Units”), (ii) LP Profit Sharing Interests and (iii) LP Class C Units such that the Unvested Units, the LP Profit Sharing Interests and the LP Class C Units shall cease to exist and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

(c) No Conversion of LP Class B Units. All LP Class B Units issued and outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall not be converted, cancelled nor extinguished and shall continue to remain outstanding as LP Class B Units of the applicable Surviving Limited Partnership following the LP Mergers Effective Time, and the holder of such LP Class B Units that is the general partner of the Operating Partnerships immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall continue as general partner of the Operating Partnerships.

(d) General Partner Interest. The general partner interest of the General Partner as general partner of each Operating Partnership outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall not be converted, cancelled nor extinguished and shall remain outstanding following the LP Mergers Effective Time, and the General Partner shall continue as the general partner of each Operating Partnership.

(e) Rollover Interests. For the avoidance of doubt, the Rollover Interests held by each of the Rollover Holders that are outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall not be converted, cancelled or extinguished and shall be contributed to the applicable HoldCo in accordance with the Rollover Agreement and shall be treated in accordance with Section 3.02(f), and HoldCo A shall continue as a limited partner of Capital LP, HoldCo B shall continue as a limited partner of Advisors LP and HoldCo C shall continue as a limited partner of Advisors II LP.

(f) Cancellation of Certain Operating Partnership Units. Subject to Section 3.02(c) and Section 3.02(e), all Operating Partnership Units that are owned directly by Parent, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, Merger Sub III or any of their Subsidiaries (including the Rollover Interests) or held in treasury of the Operating Partnerships immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time (the “Cancelled Units”) shall, by virtue of the LP Mergers, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and shall cease to exist and no payment shall be made in respect thereof.

(g) Conversion of Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Merger Sub III Units. Each issued and outstanding limited partner interest of Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Merger Sub III issued and outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time shall be converted into and become one (1) Class A Common Unit of the applicable Surviving Limited Partnership, and the holder of such limited partner interest of Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Merger Sub III shall be admitted as a limited partner of each Surviving Limited Partnership.

(h) Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if any change in the outstanding units of Operating Partnership Units has occurred, is occurring or shall occur by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, or combination, exchange or readjustment of units (including any Operating Partnership Units being exchanged into shares of Company Class A Common Stock), or any unit dividend or unit distribution thereon or stock dividend or stock distribution on the Operating Partnership Units (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Capital Stock or Operating Partnership Units, as appropriate) with a record date during the period between the date of this Agreement and the LP Mergers Effective Time, the LP Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement, the Operating Partnership LPAs and the Exchange Agreements. Nothing in this Section 3.02(h) shall be construed to permit any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 6.01).

Section 3.03 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time and LP Mergers Effective Time, as applicable, Parent shall select a financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as paying agent for the Public Merger and the LP Mergers (the “Paying Agent”) and enter into a paying agent agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, with such Paying Agent. Prior to the Effective Time and LP Mergers Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited (i) with the Paying Agent, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Public Merger Consideration, LP Merger Consideration and Warrant Consideration (if applicable) required to be paid in accordance with Section 3.01 and Section 3.02 (such cash shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund”), and (ii) with the Company, cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate RSU Consideration, Restricted Stock Consideration and Vested Performance Consideration in accordance with Section 3.06 (such cash shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Compensatory Award Fund”). In the event the Exchange Fund or the Compensatory Award Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments in connection with the Public Merger and the LP Mergers contemplated by Section 3.01, Section 3.02 or Section 3.06, respectively, Parent shall promptly deposit or cause to be deposited additional funds with the Paying Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, in an amount that is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make the applicable payment. The Paying Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Public Merger Consideration and LP Merger Consideration contemplated to be issued pursuant to Section 3.01 and Section 3.02 out of the Exchange Fund. Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to pay the RSU Consideration, Restricted Stock Consideration and Vested Performance Consideration contemplated to be paid pursuant to Section 3.06 out of the Compensatory Award Fund.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time, as applicable, and in any event not later than the second (2nd) Business Day following the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time, as applicable, Parent will cause the Paying Agent to send to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time) of (i) an outstanding share of Company Class A Common

Stock represented by a Certificate or an outstanding Book-Entry Share immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Cancelled Shares and except for any Dissenting Shares and any unvested Company Restricted Stock Awards to be cancelled without payment in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.06(c)) and (ii) an outstanding Operating Partnership Unit represented by a LP Certificate or an outstanding Book-Entry Unit immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time (other than the Unvested Units, LP Class B Units or Cancelled Units): (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or LP Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.04) or Book-Entry Shares or Book-Entry Units, as applicable, to the Paying Agent) in such form as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, for use in effecting delivery of shares of Company Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and Operating Partnership Units outstanding immediately prior to the LP Mergers Effective Time and entitled to LP Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.02 to the Paying Agent, and (y) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates or LP Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.04) or Book-Entry Shares or Book-Entry Units, as applicable, in exchange for the Public Merger Consideration or LP Merger Consideration in such form as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree.

(c) Upon the surrender of a Certificate or LP Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.04) or Book-Entry Shares or Book-Entry Units, as applicable, for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, including the Withholding Certificate from holders of Operating Partnership Units and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such shares of Company Class A Common Stock or Operating Partnership Units represented by such Certificate or LP Certificate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time or of such Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay in exchange therefor, as promptly as practicable (but in any event within two (2) Business Days), an amount in cash (less any applicable withholding Taxes payable in respect thereof) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock or Operating Partnership Units represented by such Certificate or LP Certificate or of such Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit by (ii) the Public Merger Consideration or LP Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Certificates, LP Certificates, Book-Entry Shares or Book-Entry Units surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Class A Common Stock or an Operating Partnership Unit that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company or the Operating Partnerships, as applicable, payment of the appropriate amount of Public Merger Consideration or LP Merger Consideration may be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate, LP Certificate, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate or LP Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer (and accompanied by all documents reasonably required by the Paying Agent) or such Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit shall be properly transferred. The Paying Agent will accept the Certificates, LP Certificates, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to cause an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate, LP Certificate, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit. Until so surrendered, the Certificates and the LP Certificates, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time to evidence only the right to receive the consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.02, as applicable.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Paying Agent and the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) to ensure that (i) if the Closing occurs at or prior to 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the Closing Date, the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees on the Closing Date an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock and the number of Operating Partnership Units held of record by DTC or such nominee immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Public Merger Consideration and the LP Merger Consideration, as applicable (such amount, the “DTC Payment”), and (ii) if the Closing occurs after 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the Closing Date, the Paying Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominee on the first (1st) Business Day after the Closing Date an amount in cash in immediately available funds equal to the DTC Payment.

(e) If any cash payment is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate, LP Certificate, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit is registered, it shall be a condition of such payment that the Person requesting such payment shall pay, or cause to be paid, any Transfer Taxes required by reason of the making of such cash payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the surrendered Certificate, LP Certificate, Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Unit or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Taxes have been paid or are not payable.

To the extent that amounts are deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority by Parent, the Merger Subs, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Limited Partnerships, their respective Subsidiaries or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(a) No Solicitation. Except as permitted by this Section 6.02, during the period from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, the Company shall not, and shall (i) cause its Subsidiaries and the respective directors and officers of each Acquired Company and (ii) instruct and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the other Representatives of each Acquired Company not to, directly or indirectly: (A) solicit, initiate, seek or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public information relating to any Acquired Company) any inquiry, discussion, offer or request that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (B) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with, or furnish any non-public information relating to the Acquired Companies to, or afford access to the books or records or officers of the Acquired Companies to, any Third Party, in each case, with respect to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (C) grant any waiver, amendment or release of any Third Party under any standstill or confidentiality agreement; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be permitted to grant a waiver of or terminate any “standstill” or similar agreement or obligation of any Third Party to the extent such agreement or obligation prohibits a confidential proposal being made to the Company Board or the Special Committee if the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special

Committee) has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law, (D) approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, or publicly propose to approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or other Contract with respect to any Acquisition Proposal other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with Section 6.02(c) (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”); (E) take any action to exempt any Third Party from the restrictions on “business combinations” contained in Section 203 of the DGCL or any other applicable Takeover Statute or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply or (F) resolve, agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing.

Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and the respective directors and officers of each Acquired Company and instruct and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the other Representatives of each Acquired Company to immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing solicitation, discussion or negotiation with, and terminate any data room access (or other access to diligence) of, any Third Party and its Representatives (other than, with respect to data room access, certain founding partners of the Company (the “Founders”) and their Representatives, except as otherwise determined by Parent) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal. Promptly following the date of this Agreement (and in any event within two (2) Business Days following the date hereof), the Company will request that each Third Party that has executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of an Acquisition Proposal (other than the Founders and their Representatives, except as otherwise determined by Parent) promptly return or destroy, in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement, all non-public information furnished to such Third Party by or on behalf of the Company or its Representatives.

(c) Permitted Conduct Related to Certain Acquisition Proposals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at any time prior to adoption of this Agreement by the Required Company Stockholder Approval (i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a Third Party that did not result from a material breach of Section 6.02 and (ii) the Company Board (acting on the recommendation of the Special Committee) determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors, that (A) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take the actions contemplated by this Section 6.02(c) would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to Applicable Law, then the Company and its Representatives may (x) enter into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such Third Party and/or its Affiliates and Representatives and, subject to the terms and conditions of such Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, furnish non-public information, and afford access to the books or records or officers of the Acquired Companies, to such Third Party and its Affiliates and Representatives, and (y) engage in discussions and negotiations with such Third Party and its Affiliates and Representatives with respect to such Acquisition Proposal; provided that (1) the Company shall notify Parent if the Company commences any action described in clause (x) or clause (y) of this Section 6.02(c) promptly thereafter (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours of the Company’s commencement of such action) and (2) without limiting the generality of the last sentence of Section 6.02(g), the Company shall make available to Parent any material non-public information concerning the Acquired Companies made available to any Third Party to the extent not previously

made available to Parent, as promptly as reasonably practicable after it is made available to such Third Party (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours following the delivery of such information to such Third Party). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Representatives may, in any event (without the Company Board or the Special Committee having to make the determination in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence), contact any Third Party to (i) seek to clarify and understand the terms and conditions of any Acquisition Proposal made by such Third Party solely to determine whether such Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal and (ii) inform such Third Party that has made or, to the Knowledge of the Company, is considering making an Acquisition Proposal of the provisions of this Section 6.02.

(d) No Adverse Recommendation Change or Entry into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement. Except as expressly permitted by Section 6.02(e), neither the Company Board nor the Special Committee shall:

(i) (A) withhold, withdraw, modify, qualify or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation (it being understood it shall be considered a modification adverse to Parent if (x) any Acquisition Proposal structured as a tender or exchange offer is commenced and the Company Board fails to publicly recommend against acceptance of such tender or exchange offer by the Company Stockholders within eight (8) Business Days of commencement thereof pursuant to Rule 14d-2 of the Exchange Act or (y) any Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced (other than by the commencement of a tender or exchange offer) and the Company Board fails to issue a public press release within eight (8) Business Days of such public announcement stating that the Company Board reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation); (B) fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation within eight (8) Business Days after Parent so requests in writing (or, if the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled to be held within five (5) Business Days, then within three (3) Business Days after Parent so requests in writing); provided that, other than any reaffirmation following receipt of an Acquisition Proposal, Parent may only request such a reaffirmation on one occasion; (C) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement; (D) authorize, adopt, approve, declare advisable, or recommend, or publicly propose to authorize, adopt, approve, declare advisable, or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal or any proposal reasonably likely to lead to an Acquisition Proposal; or (E) resolve, agree, authorize or commit to do any of the foregoing (any of the actions described in clauses (A) through (E) of this Section 6.02(d)(i), an “Adverse Recommendation Change”); or

(ii) cause or permit the Company to enter into any Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

(e) Permissible Adverse Recommendation Change and Entry into Alternative Acquisition Agreement in Connection with a Superior Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Approval, in the event that the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a material breach of Section 6.02, the Special Committee and the Company Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee, may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Acquisition Proposal or cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, if and only if:

(i) the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal;

(ii) the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors) that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Superior Proposal or cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law;

(iii) the Company has provided, at least three (3) Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”), written notice (a “Notice of Adverse Recommendation Change”) to Parent to the effect that (A) the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn; (B) the Company Board has (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) concluded in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; (C) the Company Board has (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial and outside legal advisors) that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Superior Proposal or cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h) to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duty under Applicable Law; and (D) the Company Board has (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) resolved to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(h), which notice shall describe the basis for such Adverse Recommendation Change or termination, including the identity of the Person or Group making such Acquisition Proposal, and the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal and shall include copies of all relevant documents relating to such Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that such delivery of a Notice of Adverse Recommendation Change and any amendment or update thereto (in each case, privately to Parent), the determination to so deliver such notice, amendment or update and the Special Committee’s making of any non-public recommendation to the Company Board with respect thereto will not, by itself, constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change); and

(iv) prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change or termination the Company and its Representatives, until 11:59 P.M. (Eastern time) on the last day of the Notice Period, shall have negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Superior Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior

Proposal; it being understood that (x) in the event of any material revision, amendment, update or supplement to such Acquisition Proposal, the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of Section 6.02(e)(iii) and (iv) with respect to such new written notice (with the “Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice being three (3) Business Days from the delivery of such written notice to Parent) and (y) at the end of the Notice Period, the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) must have in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors and taking into account Xxxxxx’s proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) reaffirmed its determination described in Section 6.02(e)(i) and Section 6.02(e)(ii).

(f) Permissible Adverse Recommendation Change in Connection with an Intervening Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Approval, other than in connection with a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, the Special Committee and the Company Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee, may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to an Intervening Event, if and only if:

(i) the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors), that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law;

(ii) the Company has provided, at least three (3) Business Days (the “Intervening Event Notice Period”) prior written notice (a “Notice of Intervening Event”) to Parent that the Company intends to take such action (it being understood that such delivery of a Notice of Intervening Event and any amendment or update thereto (in each case, privately to Parent) and the determination to so deliver such notice, amendment or update will not, by itself, constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change), which notice shall include reasonably detailed information describing the Intervening Event and the basis for effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change; and

(iii) prior to effecting such Adverse Recommendation Change, the Company and its Representatives, until 11:59 P.M. (Eastern time) on the last day of the Intervening Event Notice Period, shall have (A) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in response to such Intervening Event so that the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee and after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors and taking into account Parent’s proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) no longer determines in good faith that the failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; and (B) following such Intervening Event Notice Period, the Company Board (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee and after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors and taking into account Xxxxxx’s proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) has determined that the failure of the Company Board to effect an

Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law; it being understood that each time that material modifications or developments with respect to the Intervening Event occur (as reasonably determined by the Special Committee in good faith), the Company will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of Section 6.02(f)(ii) with respect to such new written notice (with the “Intervening Event Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice being two (2) Business Days from the delivery of such written notice to Parent).

The Company shall ensure that any withdrawal or modification of the Company Board Recommendation that is not accompanied by a termination of this Agreement: (x) does not alter the Company’s obligation to call, give notice of and hold the Company Stockholder Meeting in accordance with Section 6.04(a); and (y) does not have the effect of causing any corporate takeover statute or other similar statute (including any “moratorium”, “control share acquisition”, “business combination” or “fair price” statute) of the State of Delaware or any other state to be applicable to this Agreement, any of the Support Agreements, the Rollover Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other Transactions.

(g) Notice to Parent of Acquisition Proposals. From and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, (i) as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours from the receipt thereof) after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for non-public information or inquiry (including seeking to initiate or continue any discussion or negotiation) that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall provide Parent with written notice, which notice must include (A) the identity of the Person or Group making such proposal, request or inquiry (unless such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person or Group that is in effect on the date of this Agreement); (B) the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and if in writing, an unredacted copy thereof (and, where no copy is available, a reasonably detailed written description thereof); and (C) copies of any material agreements, documents or other written materials submitted in connection therewith (unless such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person or Group that is in effect on the date of this Agreement, and, where no copies are available or such disclosure is prohibited, a reasonably detailed written description thereof), and (ii) thereafter, the Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a prompt basis (and in any event through notifying Parent in writing within forty-eight (48) hours of any material development with regard to or material amendment of such proposal, request or inquiry), of the status and terms of any such proposal (including any amendments thereto) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations, including providing unredacted copies of any new or amended material agreements, documents or other written materials submitted in connection therewith (unless such disclosure is prohibited pursuant to the terms of any confidentiality agreement with such Person or Group that is in effect on the date of this Agreement, and, where no copies are available or disclosure is prohibited, a reasonably detailed written description thereof). From and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VIII, the Company will promptly (and in any event within forty-eight (48) hours) make available to Parent any non-public information concerning any Acquired Company that is provided to any such Person or Group or its Representatives that was not previously made available to Parent or its Representatives.

(h) Permitted Disclosures by the Company. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee, directly or indirectly through its Representatives, from (i) taking and disclosing to the Company Stockholders a position with respect to a tender or exchange offer by a Third Party pursuant to Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) making any “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act or a factually accurate public statement by the Company that describes the Company’s receipt of an Acquisition Proposal and the operation of this Agreement with respect thereto, or (iii) any other communication to the Company Stockholders if (in the case of this clause (iii)) the Special Committee has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial and outside legal advisors, that such communication is required under Applicable Law; it being understood that (A) any such communication or disclosure made by the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee must be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall not limit or otherwise adversely affect the obligations of the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee and the rights of Parent under this Section 6.02 and (B) nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to permit the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change other than in accordance with Section 6.02(e); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the permitted disclosures pursuant to clause (i) and clause (ii) of the foregoing shall not be deemed to constitute an Adverse Recommendation Change.

(i) Breach of Non-Solicitation Obligations by Representatives of the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that any action that if taken by the Company would constitute a breach of any provision set forth in this Section 6.02 is taken by any Representative of any of the Acquired Companies, whether or not such Representative is purporting to act on behalf of any of the Acquired Companies (but provided that, with respect to Representatives of the Acquired Companies who are attorneys, accountants, consultants and financial advisors, such Person has been engaged by the Acquired Companies in connection with the Transactions or are otherwise acting on behalf of the Acquired Companies), shall be deemed to constitute a breach of such provision by the Company.

Section 6.03 Governmental Consents and Filings.

(a) During the period from the date hereof and continuing through the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and subject to Applicable Law, the parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Law, including Antitrust Law and any Required Irish FDI Filing, or otherwise to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as practicable (and in any event before the End Date) and to cooperate with the other parties in connection with the foregoing, including using reasonable best efforts to obtain all consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders that are required to be obtained by the parties or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the Transactions from any Governmental Authorities (including the FCA Approval and any Required Irish FDI Filing) (including those consents and approvals set forth in Section 6.03(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter) or other

third parties, and to effect as promptly as practicable all necessary registrations, filings and responses to requests for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Authorities, if any, in each case subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.03, or to avoid any Proceeding (including those in connection with the Antitrust Laws) in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions. Without limitation of the foregoing, the parties shall, and shall cause their respective controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with each other and use their reasonable best efforts to as promptly as practicable and in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date hereof prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed (including by causing a party’s relevant controlled Affiliates by which a filing is required to be made to a Governmental Authority to make such filing), all necessary documentation to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings with, and to obtain as promptly as practicable after the date hereof all permits, consents, approvals, waivers and authorizations of, all Governmental Authorities that are necessary or advisable to timely consummate the Transactions, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the filings and applications related to (i) the FCA Approval, (ii) the clearances, approvals and consents set forth in Section 7.01(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, and (iii) any Required Irish FDI Filing, except, as it pertains to any Required Irish FDI Filing, such filing shall be prepared and filed no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date upon which Parent communicates to the Company that Parent has reasonably determined that such filing is required.

The parties agree that they shall keep the other parties apprised in a timely manner of the status of matters relating to completion of the Transactions.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, the parties shall make all necessary filings, and thereafter make an appropriate response to any requests for submission of additional documents and information, with respect to this Agreement required under the HSR Act.

(A) where such conditions are capable of being satisfied by the parties without final recourse to the FCA, upon the fulfilment of those conditions (as may be varied or cancelled) to the satisfaction of the FCA or the parties (acting reasonably);

(B) where such conditions are ongoing in nature, upon the FCA or the parties having agreed in writing that, in their reasonable opinion, such conditions (as may be varied or cancelled) will continue to be fulfilled; or

(C) where such conditions are stated in the written notice to require the FCA’s confirmation of being satisfied, upon receipt by either party of confirmation from the FCA that the conditions (as may be varied or cancelled) have been satisfied; or

(iii) the assessment period (as defined in section 189(1) of FSMA) having elapsed without the FCA having given, in relation to each of the UK-Regulated Entities, notice under section 189(4)(a) of FSMA or a notification under section 189(4)(b) of FSMA or a notification under section 189(6)(b) of FSMA that the application for consent is incomplete, so that the FCA may be treated under section 189(6) of FSMA as having approved the acquisition of control by Parent and any Additional Notice Giver of the UK-Regulated Entities.

(d) In connection with obtaining any approval or consent related to any Applicable Law, the parties shall (and shall cause their respective controlled Affiliates to) (i) cooperate in good faith with the Governmental Authorities and (ii) shall undertake (and cause their respective controlled Affiliates to undertake) promptly any and all action to complete lawfully the Transactions as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the End Date) and any and all action necessary or advisable to avoid, prevent, eliminate or remove the actual or threatened commencement of any Proceeding in any forum by or on behalf of any Governmental Authority or the issuance of any Governmental Order that would (or to obtain the agreement or consent of any Governmental Authority to the Transactions the absence of which would) delay, enjoin, prevent, restrain or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Public Merger or the LP Mergers, including (A) to promptly resolve any objections that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority and (B) to satisfy any reasonable conditions or requirements imposed on it by any Governmental Authority in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, including under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to require (1) Parent or any of its Affiliates to divest or hold separate, or agree to divest or hold separate, any of its or the Acquired Companies’ assets, businesses or operations, or to agree to any injunction, order or other restriction on, or to take any other action with respect to, its or the Acquired Companies’ assets, businesses or operations (collectively, each a “Remedial Action”), or to defend any litigation, in order to secure any Governmental Authority’s approval, clearance or non-action with respect to the consummation of the Transactions, unless such Remedial Action is conditioned upon the Closing and the taking of such Remedial Action would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a material and adverse effect on the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, or on Parent and its Affiliates, taken as a whole or (2) Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries to pay any fee or settlement amount in connection with preventing the entry of any Governmental Order (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of any filing fees required to be paid in connection with seeking such Governmental Approval or any payments to Representatives of for services rendered in connection therewith).

(e) This Section 6.03 shall not apply to the obtaining of Client Consents, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 6.12.

Section 6.04 Proxy Statement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in any event no earlier than thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement in preliminary form, as required by the Exchange Act, relating to the Company Stockholder Meeting (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”). Unless an Adverse Recommendation Change has been made in accordance with Section 6.02, the Company shall include the Special Committee Recommendation and the Company Board Recommendation in any iteration of the Proxy Statement filed in preliminary or definitive form. Parent shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable, furnish to the Company all information concerning Parent and the Merger Subs required by the Exchange Act to be set forth in the Proxy Statement upon request by the Company, and will, upon request of the Company, confirm and/or supplement the information relating to Parent, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II or Merger Sub III supplied by it for inclusion in the Proxy Statement. The Company shall promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) or any request from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement and shall provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC (or the staff of the SEC), on the other hand. If the Company receives comments from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) on the preliminary Proxy Statement, (i) each of the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments or any request from the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) with respect to the Proxy Statement, (ii) each of the Company and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the SEC advise the Company as promptly as reasonably practicable that the SEC has no further comments on the Proxy Statements and (iii) the Company shall file the Proxy Statement in definitive form with the SEC and cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company Stockholders as of the record date for notice established for the Company Stockholder Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, and in no event more than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the SEC confirms that it will not review, or that it has no further comments on the Proxy Statement, which confirmation shall be deemed to have occurred if the SEC has not affirmatively notified the Company by 11:59 P.M. (Eastern time) on the tenth (10th) calendar day following such filing with the SEC that the SEC will or will not be reviewing the Proxy Statement. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement or any response to any comment from the SEC with respect thereto shall be made by the Company without the written approval of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and the Company shall provide Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. In accordance with the Company’s organizational documents, the Company through the Company Board shall use its reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as reasonably practicable (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 6.04(a) and the timing contemplated in this Section 6.04(a)), (x) establish a record date for and give notice of a meeting of its stockholders, for the purpose of voting upon the adoption of this Agreement (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Company Stockholder Meeting”) and (y) mail to the holders of Company Common Stock as of the record date for notice established for the Company Stockholder Meeting a Proxy Statement. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to duly call, convene and hold the Company Stockholder Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within thirty five (35) days following the date of first mailing of the Proxy Statement to the Company Stockholders); provided, however, that the Company (acting upon the recommendation of the Special Committee) may postpone, recess or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting: (i) with the written consent

of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at such Company Stockholder Meeting, (iii) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock with respect to which proxies have been submitted to vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement to obtain the Required Company Stockholder Approval or (iv) if reasonable additional time is necessary for the filing and distribution of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the Special Committee or the Company Board, acting upon direction from the Special Committee, has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) is necessary under Applicable Laws for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated to and reviewed by the Company Stockholders prior to the Company Stockholder Meeting; provided, that, in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv), without the written consent of Parent, in no event shall the Company Stockholder Meeting be held on a date later than the earlier of (x) thirty (30) days after the date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting was originally scheduled (in the case of clause (iv) excluding any postponements or adjournments required by applicable Law) and (y) three (3) Business Days before the End Date. Unless the Special Committee or the Company Board, acting upon direction from the Special Committee, shall have effected an Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to Section 6.02(e), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies from the Company Stockholders and obtain the Required Company Stockholder Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to hold the Company Stockholder Meeting if this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article VIII. Without the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Company shall not hold or convene its 2024 annual meeting of stockholders or any other meeting of stockholders other than the Company Stockholder Meeting.

(b) If the Company determines that it is required to file any document other than the Proxy Statement with the SEC in connection with the Mergers or other Transactions pursuant to Applicable Law (such document, as amended or supplemented, an “Other Required Company Filing”), then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file such Other Required Company Filing to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and other Applicable Law. Except in connection with an Adverse Recommendation Change or thereafter, the Company shall not file any Other Required Company Filing with the SEC without the written approval of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and the Company shall provide Parent and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and the Company shall give good faith consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested by Parent or its counsel.

(c) If at any time prior to the Effective Time any event, circumstance or information relating to the Company or Parent or any of the Company’s or Parent’s Subsidiaries, or their respective officers or directors, should be discovered by the Company or Parent, respectively, which, pursuant to the Exchange Act, should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement so that the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and, subject to Section 6.04(b), an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by Applicable Law, disseminated to the Company Stockholders. Each party agrees to correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement which shall have become false or misleading.

Section 6.05 Access to Information. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, in such manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operation of the Acquired Companies, to their respective personnel, properties, Contracts, books and records, and shall furnish such Representatives with existing financial and operating data and other information concerning the affairs of the Acquired Companies as such Representatives may reasonably request in writing, in each case, for the purpose of consummating the Transactions contemplated hereby and integration planning related thereto; provided that such review shall only be upon reasonable written notice and shall be at Parent’s sole cost and expense; provided, further, that the Company will be permitted to redact any information or documentation provided to Parent or its Representatives to the extent that such information or documentation includes competitively sensitive information. Nothing herein shall require the Acquired Companies to disclose any information to Parent or its Representatives if such disclosure (i) would violate Applicable Law or any of its material obligations with respect to any material provisions of any Contract (including any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement or arrangement) to which any Acquired Company is a party or (ii) jeopardize any attorney-client or work-product privilege; provided that, to the extent possible, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to permit disclosure of such information in a manner that preserves such compliance with Applicable Law, such compliance with provisions of any such Contract or such privilege. All information obtained by Parent, the Merger Subs and their respective Representatives shall be subject to the Company Confidentiality Agreement. No investigation or access permitted pursuant to this Section 6.05 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Company hereunder. Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to minimize any disruption to the respective business of the Acquired Companies that may result from requests for access under this Section 6.05 and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company may satisfy its obligations set forth above by electronic means if physical access is not reasonably feasible or would not be permitted under Applicable Law as a result of COVID-19 or any COVID-19 Measures.

Section 6.06 Confidentiality; Public Announcements. Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 6.02(h) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall limit the rights of the Company, the Company Board or the Special Committee under Section 6.02), the parties shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or public announcement with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions, including by providing each other with the opportunity to review and comment upon such press release or public announcement prior to its issuance, and none of the parties or their controlled Affiliates shall issue any such press release or public announcement prior to obtaining the other parties’ written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except that, after having consulted with the other parties in accordance with this Section 6.06, no such consent shall be necessary to the extent disclosure may be required by Applicable Law. The press release announcing the execution of this Agreement shall be issued only in such form as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Parent. Each of Company and Parent may, without the consent of the other party, communicate to its directors, officers, employees, customers, suppliers and consultants so long as such communication is not inconsistent with previous statements made jointly by the Company and

Parent (or made by one party hereto in accordance with this Section 6.06) after having consulted with the other parties in accordance with this Section 6.06 or is consistent with a communications plan previously agreed to by Parent and the Company in which case such communications may be made consistent with such plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth therein or herein, the Company Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing. Nothing in this Section 6.06 shall limit the ability of any party hereto to make additional disclosures that are consistent in all but de minimis respects with the prior public disclosures regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.07 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, (i) Parent agrees that it shall cause each of the Surviving Corporation and Surviving Limited Partnerships to, (ii) the Company, as the Surviving Corporation, agrees that it shall and shall cause each Surviving Limited Partnership to and (iii) each Operating Partnership as a Surviving Limited Partnership agrees that it shall, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) (as applicable), indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Acquired Companies (in their capacity as such) (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of, related to or by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of any Acquired Company and arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by the certificates of incorporation, bylaws, indemnification agreements and other organizational documents of the Acquired Companies, as applicable, in effect as of the date of this Agreement (and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement) and subject to Applicable Law. Parent also agrees to cause each of the Acquired Companies to, and each Acquired Company also agrees that it shall and shall cause each other Acquired Company to, promptly advance expenses as incurred by each present and former director and officer of the Acquired Companies (in their capacity as such) to the fullest extent permitted by the certificates of incorporation, bylaws, indemnification agreements and other organizational documents of the Acquired Companies, as applicable, in effect as of the date of this Agreement (and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement) and subject to Applicable Law; provided that any such present or former director and officer to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advance if it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such person is not entitled to indemnification under Law. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall cause the Acquired Companies (A) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in their respective certificates of incorporation, bylaws, certificates of limited partnership, limited partnership agreements and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exculpation of (and provisions relating to expense advancement to) the Persons who were directors or officers of any Acquired Company at any time prior to the Closing that are no less favorable to those Persons than the certificates of incorporation, bylaws, indemnification agreements and other organizational documents of the Acquired Companies, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement (and made available to Parent prior to the date of this Agreement) and (B) not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would materially adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Applicable Law.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation and Surviving Limited Partnerships to, the Surviving Corporation shall and shall cause the Surviving Limited Partnerships to and the Surviving Limited Partnerships shall, in each case, maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Acquired Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the date hereof on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, however, that, in lieu of the foregoing, the Company may and (if the Company does not) Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Limited Partnerships may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining at or prior to the Closing Date a prepaid, non-cancelable six (6)-year “tail” insurance policy(ies) (containing terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time; provided, further, that the aggregate annual premium (or the aggregate premium, if a 6-year “tail” insurance policy(ies) is procured) shall not exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the aggregate annual premium paid in 2022 by the Company or any other Acquired Company, as applicable, for such insurance (the “Premium Cap”), and if the premium for such insurance would at any time exceed the Premium Cap, then the Parent, the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of the Surviving Limited Partnerships (as the case may be) may cause to be maintained policies of insurance that, in the Parent’s, the Company’s, the Surviving Corporation’s or any of the Surviving Limited Partnerships’ (as the case may be) good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to the Premium Cap. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall reasonably cooperate with Parent with respect to the insurance requirements set forth in this Section 6.07.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 6.07 shall survive the consummation of the Public Merger and the LP Mergers and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Limited Partnerships. In the event that Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Limited Partnerships or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or consummates any division transaction or conversion, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Limited Partnerships, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.07.

(d) Parent shall cause the Acquired Companies to honor each of the covenants in this Section 6.07.

Section 6.08 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take such actions as are required to cause the disposition of Company Common Stock, Company Stock Awards or other securities (in each case, including derivative securities with respect to Company Common Stock) in connection with the Transactions by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company (including any director designated by any such Person and including any Person to the extent deemed a director by deputization) to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.09 Stockholder Litigation.

(a) The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a current basis regarding any Stockholder Litigation, whether commenced prior to or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(b) The Company shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in (subject to a customary joint defense agreement) the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Stockholder Litigation and consider in good faith Parent’s advice with respect to any Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall not compromise, settle or come to a binding arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to a binding arrangement regarding, any Stockholder Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing. For purposes of this Section 6.09, “participate” means that Parent shall be reasonably kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to the Stockholder Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise affected), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Stockholder Litigation, which the Company and its counsel shall reasonably consider in good faith.

Section 6.10 Employee Matters.

(a) Subject to Section 6.05 of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, afford to Parent and Parent’s Subsidiaries reasonable access to their respective personnel for purposes of evaluating and discussing potential post-Closing compensation arrangements with the Continuing Employees.

(b) With respect to benefit plans (excluding any equity or equity-based, nonqualified deferred compensation, retention, change in control, defined benefit pension and post-employment or retiree welfare benefits or compensation) maintained by Parent or any of Parent’s applicable Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation (including any vacation, paid time-off and severance plans) following the Effective Time, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, level of vacation or severance benefits and vesting, each Continuing Employee’s service with any Acquired Company, as reflected in the Company’s records, shall be treated as service with Parent or any Subsidiaries of Parent, including the Surviving Corporation to the same extent and for the same purpose as such Continuing Employee was credited with such service prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits.

(c) Parent shall, or shall cause Parent’s applicable Subsidiaries (including the Surviving Corporation) to, use reasonable best efforts to waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, evidence of insurability, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods under any group health benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries in which Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) will be eligible to participate from and after the Effective Time, except to the extent that such pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and waiting periods were not satisfied or waived under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time. Parent shall, or shall cause Parent’s applicable Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, to use reasonable best efforts to recognize, or cause to be recognized, in the plan year in which the Closing occurs, the dollar amount of all co-payments, deductibles and similar expenses incurred and paid by each Continuing Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) and credited under the Company Benefit Plan that is a group health plan during the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying such year’s deductible and co-payment limitations under the corresponding group health benefit plan of Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries in which such Continuing Employee (and dependents) participates from and after the Effective Time.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.10 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no Continuing Employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) or other Person shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 6.10 shall create such rights in any such Persons. Nothing herein shall (i) guarantee employment for any period of time or preclude the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time and for any reason; (ii) require Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, to continue any Company Benefit Plans, or other benefit or compensation plans, policies, programs, agreements, or arrangements or prevent the establishment, amendment, modification or termination thereof after the Effective Time; or (iii) establish, modify, terminate or amend any Company Benefit Plans or other benefit or compensation plans, policies, programs, agreements or arrangements.

(e) Except as otherwise agreed in writing, prior to the Effective Time, upon Xxxxxx’s request, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any director or officer of the Company, and any director or officer of a Subsidiary of the Company, in each case as and to the extent requested by Xxxxxx, to execute and deliver a letter effectuating his or her resignations as a director, member of a committee or officer of such entity effective as of the Effective Time.

(f) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent may negotiate and enter into employment and compensation arrangements with the executive officers or other employees of the Acquired Companies, which arrangements shall (i) be subject to and will become effective following the Effective Time and (ii) at Parent’s election, provide for assignment to an applicable Acquired Company at the Effective Time.

(g) Promptly following the date hereof, Parent shall establish (a) a retention plan to be effective as of Closing on terms and conditions no less favorable in any material respect from the perspective of the current employees and service providers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the “Current Employees”) than as set forth on Schedule 6.10(g)(i) (the “Retention Program”) and (ii) a long-term incentive plan to be effective as of Closing on terms and conditions no less favorable in any material respect from the perspective of the Current Employees than as set forth on Schedule 6.10(g)(ii) (the “LTIP”).

Section 6.11 Third Party Consents. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in no event shall Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries be obligated to bear any expense or pay any fee (other than payments to Representatives of any of the Acquired Companies or Parent, as applicable, or any of their respective Affiliates for services rendered in connection with the Transactions) or grant any concession in value in connection with obtaining any consents, authorizations or approvals required in order to consummate the Transactions pursuant to the terms of any Contract or any Company License to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party.

Section 6.12 Client Consents.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Client Consents pursuant to the procedures set forth on Exhibit C.

(b) In connection with obtaining the Client Consents, at all times prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take reasonable steps to keep Parent promptly informed of the status of obtaining such Client Consents (including the receipt of written notice from any investor in any Client that such investor is not providing its consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and, upon Parent’s reasonable request, make available to Parent copies of any executed Client Consents and any related materials. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall have the right to review, and comment on, in advance of distribution any

documentation to be distributed by any Acquired Company to any Client (or investors therein) pursuant to which the Company is requesting a Client Consent or otherwise in connection with the Transactions (in each case, other than materials that are substantially similar to materials already provided to Parent) and the Company shall consider all such comments of Parent in good faith prior to distribution (and the Company agrees that the documentation to be delivered to the Clients set forth on Section 6.12(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter (or any investors therein) shall address the matters described in Section 6.12(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter). From the date hereof until the Closing, the Company shall provide written notice to Parent as promptly as possible (and in any event no later than the third (3rd) Business Day following the receipt by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of such notification) of any notification to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (x) that any Client has determined not to provide any Client Consent or (y) of any new request for redemption or withdrawal in respect of any Mandate or any other termination of an Investment Advisory Arrangement.

(c) Without the prior written consent of Parent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no Acquired Company shall (i) amend any Mandate, Investment Advisory Arrangement or Fund Documentation in a manner that would, in each such case, adversely affect the economic value of such Client relationship or otherwise materially modify any term, (ii) reduce or offer or promise to reduce any fee payable by any Client, investor or Mandate thereof or cap, reduce, waive, reimburse or otherwise modify the fees payable by (or in respect of) any Client, investor or Mandate thereof or (iii) make any payment to, or grant any other economic concession (including any obligation of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or Parent or any of their respective affiliates to make any payment or assume or incur any other obligation or liability) to, any Client or investor, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i) – (iii), to the extent such action would have a non-de minimis and adverse effect on the economic value of such Client or investor relationship during the period following the Closing.

(d) For any New Mandate, the Company shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to ensure that such New Mandate will not by its terms terminate (or give rise to a termination right) as a result of the consummation of the Transactions and shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the written consent of the applicable Client to the Transactions, including the assignment of such New Mandate as a result of the consummation of the Transactions.

(e) Parent shall cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to assist the Company in all reasonable respects in connection with the seeking of the Client Consents (including by promptly providing any information reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the foregoing with respect to Parent or its Affiliates). Except as consented to by the Company in writing (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and except for any contact or communication initiated by any Client (or investor therein), any officer, director, managing member or general partner of any Client (or investor therein) or any advisory committee or similar body with respect to any Client, Parent shall not, and Parent shall cause its officers, directors, employees and other agents and representatives not to, (x) communicate with any Client (or investors therein), any officer, director, managing member or general partner of any Client (or investors therein) or any advisory committee or similar body with respect to any Client in connection with the Transactions, including for the purpose of soliciting Client Consents or (y) propose any fee waiver, fee offset or other concessions to any Person listed in the foregoing clause

(x) in connection with the solicitation of Client Consents. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall restrict any contact or communication by Parent or any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or other agent or representative of any of them in the ordinary course of business and not in connection with the Transactions. Each of Parent and the Company shall not, and the Company and Parent shall cause their respective officers, directors, employees and other agents and representatives not to, request any Client (or investor therein), any officer, director, managing member or general partner of any Client (or investor therein) or any advisory committee or similar body with respect to any Client to withhold, withdraw or revoke a Client Consent.

Section 6.13 Notices of Certain Events.

(a) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (i) any notice or other communication received by such party from any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions, if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such party to obtain such consent could be material to the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Limited Partnerships or Parent, and (ii) any Proceedings commenced or, to such party’s Knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such party or any of its Subsidiaries which relate to this Agreement or the Transactions.

(b) Following the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time:

No such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty of the Company that is set forth in this Agreement or the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Mergers or the remedies available to the parties hereto under this Agreement.

(ii) Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company upon becoming aware that any representation or warranty made by Parent or any Merger Sub in this Agreement has become untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or of any failure by Parent or Merger Subs to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it pursuant to this Agreement, in each case if and only to the extent that such untruth, inaccuracy or failure would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the obligations of the Company to consummate the Mergers set forth in Section 7.03(a) and Section 7.03(b) to fail to be satisfied at the Closing.

(e) Pass-Through Tax Contests. From and after the Closing, Parent shall control the defense of any audit, inquiry, examination, assessment, adjustment, proceeding or similar event with respect to any Pass-Through Tax Return (a “Tax Proceeding”); provided that, in controlling the defense of any such Tax Proceeding, Parent and the Operating Partnerships shall act in good faith.

All applicable Pass-Through Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the Allocation, except to the extent otherwise required by Applicable Law.

Section 6.20 Takeover Statutes. Neither Parent nor the Company shall take any action that would cause the Transactions to be subject to requirements imposed by any Takeover Statute. If any Takeover Statute or other similar state anti-takeover Laws may become, or may purport to be applicable to the Mergers, the Rollover or any other Transactions, then each of the Company and Parent, the Company Board and the Special Committee shall grant such approvals and take such actions as are reasonably necessary so that the Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and by the terms of the Rollover Agreement and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Laws on the Transactions.

Section 6.21 Termination of Related Person Agreements. Effective upon the Closing, each Related Person Agreement, except as set forth on Section 6.21 of the Company Disclosure Letter, shall be terminated, in each case in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent, and the Company shall deliver evidence of all such effective terminations to Parent at or prior to the Closing.

(i) (x) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(b) or Section 8.01(d) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(e), and (1) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.01(b), at the time of such termination, the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(b) and Section 7.01(c) have been satisfied or (2) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.01(d) or Section 8.01(e), at the time of such termination, the Company is not able to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(c), and in each case of clauses (1) and (2), the conditions set forth in Section 7.03(a) and Section 7.03(b) would be satisfied if the date of such termination were the Closing Date (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, which conditions shall be capable of being satisfied if the Closing were to occur); and (y) following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(b), Section 8.01(d) or Section 8.01(e), as applicable, (A) an Acquisition Proposal has been made and has not been withdrawn and (B) within twelve (12) months of the termination of this Agreement, the Company enters into a definitive agreement for the consummation of, any Acquisition Proposal and such Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated (regardless of whether such consummation occurs within the twelve (12)-month period), then the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent or its designee the Company Termination Fee within three (3) Business Days after the date on which such Acquisition Proposal is consummated; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 8.03(a), the references to “fifteen percent (15%)” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “fifty percent (50%)”;

(ii) by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(g) or by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(d) if an Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred, then the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent or its designee the Company Termination Fee within three (3) Business Days following such termination; or

(iii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(h), the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Parent or its designee the Company Termination Fee within three (3) Business Days following such termination.

109

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to Section 9.02 and except as set forth in the Ancillary Agreements, if this Agreement is terminated in accordance with any provision under which payment of the Company Termination Fee is required hereunder, then upon receipt and acceptance of such Company Termination Fee and the Enforcement Expenses (if any), the payment of such Company Termination Fee and the Enforcement Expenses (if any) (if payable and accepted by Parent) shall, constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent, the Merger Subs and any other Parent Related Party against (i) the Company, (ii) the Operating Partnerships and (iii) any of the Company’s or any Operating Partnership’s former, current and future Representatives, assignees, stockholders, directors, officers, partners, members, managers, general or limited partners, other equityholders, controlling Persons and any Representatives of any of the foregoing (the Persons described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively and in their capacity as such, the “Company Related Parties”) for any breach, loss or damage suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment and acceptance of the Company Termination Fee and the Enforcement Expenses (if any) (if payable and accepted by Parent), no Person shall have any rights or claims against the Company Related Parties under this Agreement, whether at Law or equity, in Contract, in tort or otherwise, and the Company Related Parties shall not have any other liability, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing shall limit Parent’s ability to recover damages in excess of the Company Termination Fee or to pursue such other remedies as permitted hereunder in the event of any intentional common law fraud or a Willful Breach by the Company or the Operating Partnerships unless (x) Parent accepts payment of the Company Termination Fee or (y) Parent fails to commence a Proceeding to recover damages in excess of the Company Termination within sixty (60) days after the date that the Company Termination Fee becomes due and payable, in which case after such sixty (60) days payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy for such intentional common law fraud or Willful Breach (and for the avoidance of doubt, commencing a Proceeding to recover damages shall not waive any of Parent’s rights to accept payment of the Company Termination Fee). Nothing in this Section 8.03(b) shall in any way expand or be deemed or construed to expand the circumstances in which the Company, the Operating Partnerships or any other Company Related Party may be liable under this Agreement or the Transactions (including in respect of any Financing incurred in connection with the Transactions). For the avoidance of doubt, while Parent or Merger Subs may pursue both a grant of specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 9.02 and payment of the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03(a), under no circumstances shall Parent or any Merger Sub be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 9.02 and monetary damages, including all or any portion of the Company Termination Fee.

(c) Each of the parties acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in Section 8.02 and this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, each party would not enter into this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Company Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II and Merger Sub III in the circumstance in which such fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Mergers. The parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one occasion, and any payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be paid net of (and not in addition to) any payment previously made by the Company of the Parent Expenses.

110

(d) Any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.02, Section 8.03(a) or this Section 8.03(d) shall be paid by wire transfer of same day funds to an account designated by Parent or the Company, as applicable (at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date such amount is to be paid). If the Company or Parent, as applicable, fails to pay when due any amount payable under Section 8.02 or Section 8.03(a), as applicable, and in order to collect such amount, Parent or the Company, as applicable, commences a Proceeding that results in a Governmental Order against the Company or Parent for monetary damages (including the Company Termination Fee), as applicable, then such party shall reimburse the other for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with such Proceeding, together with interest on such amount at an annual rate equal to the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal) (or other authoritative source to the extent no such figure is published by The Wall Street Journal) on the date that such payment was required to be made plus five percent (5%) through the date that such payment was actually received, or a lesser rate that is the maximum permitted by Applicable Law (collectively, “Enforcement Expenses”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.03 to the contrary, in the event that, at the time the Company Termination Fee, Enforcement Expenses, Parent Expenses, or payment of damages due to Willful Breach or fraud (each of the foregoing, a “Potential Company Payment”) is required to be paid, Parent (or the regarded parent of which Parent is a direct or indirect disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is an entity intended to qualify as a “real estate investment trust” under Section 856 of the Code, and counsel or independent accountants for Parent determines that there exists a material risk that any amounts due to Parent under this Section 8.03 would be treated as Nonqualifying Income upon the payment of such amounts to Parent, then the Company shall be notified pursuant to the procedures set forth below in this Section 8.03(e) and the provisions of this Section 8.03(e) shall apply such that the amount paid to Parent pursuant to this Section 8.03 in any tax year shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be paid to Parent (or its regarded parent) in such year without causing it to fail to meet the REIT Requirements for such year, determined as if the payment of such amount were Nonqualifying Income as determined by such counsel or independent accountants to Parent as further described in this Section 8.03(e) (such maximum amount, the “REIT Cap”). If (A) the REIT Cap for any tax year under the preceding sentence is less than (B) the amount which would otherwise be obligated to be paid to Parent with respect to Potential Company Payments (the excess of (B) over (A), the “Fee/Expense Amount”), then: (1) Parent shall promptly notify in writing the Company at least (2) Business Days prior to the date the applicable Potential Company Payment is scheduled to be paid of the Fee/Expense Amount, and the Company shall place the Fee/Expense Amount into an escrow account (the “Fee/Expense Escrow Account”) using an escrow agent and agreement reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company and shall not release any portion thereof to Parent, (2) Parent shall not be entitled to any such amount, unless and until Parent delivers to the Company and the escrow agent, at the sole option and expense of Parent, (i) an opinion (a “Fee/Expense Amount Tax Opinion”) of Parent’s tax counsel to the effect that such amount, if and to the extent paid, would not constitute Nonqualifying Income, (ii) a letter (a “Fee/Expense Amount Accountant’s Letter”) from Parent’s independent accountants indicating the maximum amount that can be paid at that time to Parent without causing the Parent (or its regarded parent) to fail to meet the REIT Requirements for any relevant taxable year, or (iii) a private letter ruling issued by the IRS to Parent (or its regarded parent) indicating that the receipt of any Fee/Expense Amount hereunder will not cause Parent (or such regarded parent) to fail to satisfy the REIT Requirements (a “REIT Qualification Ruling” and, collectively with a Fee/Expense Amount Tax

111

Opinion and a Fee/Expense Amount Accountant’s Letter, a “Release Document”) and, in each case, certifies that such delivery constitutes a Release Document; and (3) pending the delivery of a Release Document, Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to borrow the Fee/Expense Amount from the Fee/Expense Escrow Account pursuant to a loan agreement reasonably acceptable to Parent and the escrow agent that (i) requires the escrow agent to lend the recipient immediately available cash proceeds in an amount equal to the Fee/Expense Amount, and (ii) provides for (A) a commercially reasonable interest rate and commercially reasonable covenants, taking into account the credit standing and profile of Parent or any guarantor of Parent at the time of such loan, and (B) a fifteen (15) year maturity with no periodic amortization. Any portion of the Fee/Expense Amount that remains in escrow as of December 31 following the date which is five years from the date of this Agreement shall be released by the escrow agent to the Company and Parent shall have no rights thereto. Upon deposit by the Company of the Fee/Expense Amount in the Fee/Expense Escrow Account (and paying the balance of the applicable Potential Company Payment as required by this Agreement), the Company shall have been deemed to have satisfied in full its obligation to Parent to pay the applicable Potential Company Payment (but for the avoidance of doubt not any other Potential Company Payments) and shall not be subject to any additional liability or obligation in respect of such Potential Company Payment under or pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Without limiting any obligation of the Company to pay the Company Termination Fee or the Enforcement Expenses, if and when they become due and payable pursuant to this Section 8.03, if Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d), then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent the amount of the Parent Expenses, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent within two (2) Business Days of such termination.

Section 9.02 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance.

(a) The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur, and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law, in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the Transactions). It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

(b) To the extent any party hereto brings a Proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than a Proceeding to enforce specifically any provision that expressly survives termination of this Agreement), the End Date shall automatically be extended to (i) the twentieth (20^th) Business Day following the resolution of such Proceeding or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Proceedings (it being understood that this Section 9.02 is not intended and shall not be construed to limit in any way the provisions of Section 8.03(b) or Section 8.03(c)).

Section 9.03 Expenses. Except as set forth in Section 8.03(a), Section 8.03(d), Section 8.03(f) and this Section 9.03, each party hereto shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions whether or not such Transactions shall be consummated, including all fees of its legal counsel, financial advisers and accountants; provided that, in the event that the Transactions are not consummated, Parent shall pay fees and expenses in connection with any financing arrangements pursuant to Section 6.17; provided, further, that except as set forth in Section 3.03(e), the Acquired Companies shall bear and timely pay all Transfer Taxes and shall prepare and timely file, at its expense, all Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the fullest extent possible under such Tax Laws, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes payable in connection therewith.

Section 9.04 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties and covenants and agreements in this Agreement and in any certificate or other writing delivered pursuant hereto by any Person, other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.30 and Section 5.15, shall terminate at the Effective Time or LP Mergers Effective Time, as applicable, except (a) as provided in Section 8.02, upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01, as the case may be, and (b) that this Section 9.04 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the parties which by its terms contemplates performance after the Effective Time or the LP Mergers Effective Time, including those contained in Section 6.07 and Section 6.10.

114

Section 9.05 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Effective Time or LP Mergers Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that no amendment or waiver shall be made subsequent to receipt of the Required Company Stockholder Approval which requires further approval of the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the DGCL without such further stockholder approval.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 9.06 Disclosure Letter References. The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Letter shall only be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the Company and the Operating Partnerships, as applicable, that are contained in the corresponding Section or subsection of this Agreement and (b) any other representations and warranties (or covenant, as applicable) of the Company and the Operating Partnerships, as applicable, that are contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties (or covenant, as applicable) is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure. The listing of any matter on the Company Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to constitute an admission by the Company, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material, is required to be disclosed by such party under this Agreement or falls within relevant minimum thresholds or materiality standards set forth in this Agreement. No disclosure in the Company Disclosure Letter relating to any possible breach or violation by the Company of any Contract or Applicable Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. In no event shall the listing of any matter in the Company Disclosure Letter be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of the Company’s or the Operating Partnerships’ representations, warranties and/or covenants set forth in this Agreement except as set forth in this Agreement.

Section 9.07 Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure solely to the benefit of and be enforceable by each party hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) from and after the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time, the Company Indemnified Parties shall be intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, Section 6.07, (ii) from and after the Effective Time and the LP Mergers Effective Time, the holders of shares of Company Class A Common Stock, Operating Partnership Units converted into the right to receive LP Merger Consideration and holders of Company Stock Awards as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and LP Mergers Effective Time shall be intended third-party beneficiaries solely for the purpose of receiving the

115

consideration that such holder is entitled to pursuant to Section 3.01, Section 3.02 or Section 3.06 as applicable, and (iii) the Company Related Parties and the Parent Related Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, Section 8.03(b), Section 8.03(d), Section 9.02, Section 9.08, Section 9.09, Section 9.10 and Section 9.14.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Parent and each Merger Sub will have the right to assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (i) to any of its Affiliates (provided that such assignment would not reasonably be expected to delay the Closing or satisfaction of any condition to Closing hereunder) or (ii) to any source of debt financing for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning as collateral in respect of such debt financing; provided that, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), any assignment by Parent or any Merger Sub shall not relieve Parent or any Merger Sub of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent will have the right to assign all or any portion of its equity interests in the Merger Subs to any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 9.07(b) shall be null and void.

Section 9.08 Governing Law. This Agreement and all Proceedings (whether based on Contract, tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, the Transactions, or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub Inc., Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, Merger Sub III or the Company or any Operating Partnership in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.

Section 9.09 Jurisdiction.

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby expressly, irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any appeal thereof, in any Proceeding based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the agreements delivered in connection herewith or the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such Proceeding except in such courts, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such Proceeding may be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such Federal court, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such Federal court and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 9.09 in any such Proceeding by mailing copies thereof by registered or certified U.S. mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to its address as specified in or pursuant to Section 9.01. However, nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process on any other party in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law.

116

Section 9.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.

Section 9.11 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other parties hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF format or through an electronic signature service or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No party may raise the use of any of the foregoing methods to deliver a signature, or the fact that any signature, agreement, or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of any of the foregoing methods, as a defense to the formation of a Contract, and each party forever waives any such defense.

Section 9.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, are not intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.13 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Applicable Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

117

Section 9.14 No Recourse. Each party hereto agrees, on behalf of itself and its Related Parties, that all Proceedings (whether based on Contract, tort or otherwise, including whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to: (a) this Agreement or the Transactions; (b) the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any of the Transactions; (c) any breach or violation of this Agreement; or (d) any failure of any Transaction to be consummated, in each case, may be made only (i) against (and are those solely of) the Persons that are, in the case of this Agreement, expressly identified as parties to this Agreement; and (ii) in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, except for Proceedings against any Person that is party to an Ancillary Agreement or other Contract pursuant to the terms thereof. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each party hereto agrees, on behalf of itself and its Related Parties, that no recourse under this Agreement or in connection with any Transaction will be sought or had against any other Person, including any Company Related Party or Parent Related Party, and no other Person, including any Related Party, will have any liabilities or obligations (whether based on Contract, tort or otherwise, including whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise), for any claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities based upon, arising out of or related to any item in clauses (a) through (d) above, except for claims, causes of action, obligations or liabilities against any Person that is party to an Ancillary Agreement or other Contract pursuant to the terms thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the parties to the Agreement or their respective Related Parties to bring counterclaims in connection with any Proceeding brought against such parties or their Affiliates by any other Person.
