-7- 

Section 1.15 Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are intended to have the following consequences:

(a) The Existing Partnerships merge with and into Holdings LP within the meaning of Code Section 708(b)(2)(A) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.708-1(c) (i.e., the Existing Partnerships will be deemed to transfer assets and liabilities to Holdings LP in exchange for Class B LP Units which are then distributed in liquidating distributions to the historic partners of the Existing Partnerships).

(b) The historic partners of the Existing Partnerships will then be deemed to make contributions of Class B LP Units to Feeder Fund. It is the intent of the parties that these deemed contributions will qualify for nonrecognition to the extent possible under Code Section 721.

(c) To the extent partners of the Existing Partnerships receive cash (or payment rights) in exchange for the surrender of partnership interests in the Buyback Transaction, then “buy-out” treatment as specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.708-1(c)(4) shall apply to the Buyback Transaction.

(d) To the extent partners of the Existing Partnership receive cash as a result of the Secondary Sale, such partners will be treated as selling partnership interests to Pubco.

Section 1.16 Indemnification of LPAC.

(a) All rights to indemnification by the Existing Partnerships existing in favor of those Persons who are members of the LP Advisory Committee (including for the avoidance of doubt, the members of the LP Advisory Committee constituting the LP Transaction Committee) as well any Limited Partner who may have nominated or may be represented by such member of the LP Advisory Committee (including for the avoidance of doubt, the members of the LP Advisory Committee constituting the LP Transaction Committee) as of the date of this Agreement (the “LP Indemnified Persons”) for their acts and omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time, as provided in the limited partnership agreements of the Existing Partnerships, shall survive the Mergers and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified, and shall be observed by Holdings (on behalf of HCRX Investments) to the fullest extent available under applicable law.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Existing Manager may, at the Existing Partnerships’ expense, obtain a pre-paid, non-cancelable run-off insurance policy (the “LP Tail Policy”), covering the LP Indemnified Persons currently indemnified by the Existing Partnerships of not less than the existing coverage under, and with other terms not materially less favorable to, the LP Indemnified Persons than the liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Existing Partnerships (or general partner or manager thereof, as applicable).

(c) The provisions of this Section 1.16 shall survive the consummation of the Mergers and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each of the LP Indemnified Persons and their successors, assigns and heirs. This Section 1.16 may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Effective Time without the prior written consent of the affected LP Indemnified Person.

-8- 

Section 1.17 Structure Flexibility. While it is currently contemplated that the Existing Partnerships will merge with and into HCRX Investments, the parties acknowledge the need for structuring flexibility in relation to the Debt Financing.  As such, in the event that as a result of the Debt Financing it is necessitated, as determined by Pubco in its reasonable discretion, that the structure be revised such that it is preferable that the assets of the Existing Partnerships be held at Holdings LP, HCRX Intermediate or a newly formed entity satisfying the conditions below (“NewCo”), then Section 1.04 of this Agreement shall be deemed amended and revised to reflect the merger of the Existing Partnerships with an into Holdings LP, HCRX Intermediate or such NewCo.  In the event, Pubco decides to implement the provisions of this Section 1.17, Pubco shall notify all parties of such structural changes at least 10 Business Days prior to the Closing. In order for this provision to be implemented with a NewCo, Newco must satisfy the following conditions:

(a) NewCo must be a Delaware limited partnership (and not a limited liability company or corporation);

(b) NewCo must be treated as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes;

(c) Holdings LP must directly or indirectly be the sole owner of all of the limited partnership interests of NewCo;

(d) the general partner of Holdings LP must be the sole general partner of NewCo; and

(e) the limited partnership agreement of NewCo must be substantially similar to the A&R HCRX Investments LPA.

Article II

Section 2.01 Holdings LP Unit Issuances. Pursuant to the Holdings LP Unit Issuances and as reflected in the A&R Holdings LP LPA, on behalf of the Continuing Investors, Feeder Fund shall be issued an amount of Class B LP Units equal to the Aggregate Fund Relative Value.

Section 2.02 Mergers. Pursuant to the Mergers and as reflected in the Feeder Fund LPA and the stock register or other books and records of Pubco (as applicable):

(a) Continuing GP Investors. Each Continuing GP Investor shall be issued a pro rata portion of the total issued and outstanding partnership interests of Feeder Fund based on the percentage obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount of such Continuing GP Investor’s Allocated GP Fund Value with respect to each of the applicable Existing Partnerships, by (ii) the Aggregate Fund Relative Value.

(b) Continuing LP Investors. Each Continuing LP Investor shall be issued a pro rata portion of the total issued and outstanding partnership interests of Feeder Fund based on the percentage obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount of such Continuing LP Investor’s Allocated LP Fund Relative Value with respect to each of the applicable Existing Partnerships, by (ii) the Aggregate Fund Relative Value.

-9- 

(c) Feeder Fund. Feeder Fund shall be issued shares of Class B Common Stock in an amount equal to the total number of Class B LP Units issued to Feeder Fund pursuant to Section 2.01.

Section 2.03 New Investment Value. An Existing Partnership’s Fund Value shall be increased to take into account the value of any New Investment consummated during the period beginning on the Applicable Quarter End Date and ending on the Closing (the “New Investment Value”). Such New Investment Value will be valued at cost until the subsequent quarter end, and if the Mergers are consummated following such quarter end, the Existing Manager will assess in good faith any adjustments to the applicable Fund Value in connection with such New Investment consistent with past practice. Each New Investment and the corresponding New Investment Value will be allocated among the Existing Partnerships consistent with past practices, including in accordance with applicable allocation policies.

(b) A Fund Relative Value Statement setting forth a calculation of each Existing Partnership’s applicable Fund Value and corresponding Fund Percentage and the Aggregate Fund Relative Value as of March 31, 2021 is attached as Exhibit L (the “March Calculation”), which for the avoidance of doubt does not take into account any amounts in respect of clauses (b) or (c) of the definition of Fund Value. The parties acknowledge that the March Calculation of the applicable Fund Value and corresponding Fund Percentage as of March 31, 2021 was prepared by Existing Manager prior to the date of this Agreement and RNA Capital Advisors (“RNA”) reviewed any investment of the Existing Partnerships that represented more than 0.5% of the fair market value of the Existing Partnership’s investments (the “Material Investments”) and that the values shown in the March Calculation are within the range of values provided by RNA for the Material Investments.

-10- 

(c) If, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the IPO is consummated on or prior to August 15, 2021, then the March Calculation shall be used to determine the amount set forth in clause (a) of the definition of Fund Value.

The Existing Manager shall have RNA, or if RNA is incapable or unwilling to perform another independent nationally recognized valuation firm (RNA or such firm, the “Independent Appraiser”) perform its own independent valuation consistent with past practice (in the case of RNA) of the Material Investments of the Existing Partnership as of the Applicable Quarter End Date.

(i) If the Fund Value Calculation is within the range of values provided by the Independent Appraiser relating to Material Investments, then the Fund Value Calculation shall be final and binding on all parties for purposes of determining the amount set forth in clause (a) of the definition of Fund Value (subject to clause (d) of the definition of Fund Value).

(ii) If the Fund Value for any Existing Partnership set forth in the Fund Calculation is not within the range of values for such Existing Partnership provided by the Independent Appraiser relating to Material Investments, the Existing Manager and applicable Existing Partnership shall work in good faith with the Independent Appraiser to resolve any disputed items. If the Independent Appraiser and Existing Manager are unable to resolve any disputed items, the amount to be utilized in clause (a) of the definition of Fund Value shall be revised such that such amount is within the range of values provided by the Independent Appraiser. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the amount to be utilized in clause (a) of the definition of Fund Value be outside of the range of values provided by the Independent Appraiser.

(e) The Existing Manager and the Existing Partnerships shall submit the Fund Relative Value Statement to the Independent Appraiser for review prior to finalizing the Fund Value for each Existing Partnership. If the Independent Appraiser objects to the amounts determined to be the Fund Value for any Existing Partnership given the passage of time since the final determination of Fund Value as of the Applicable Quarter End Date in accordance with Section 2.04(d), the Existing Manager and applicable Existing Partnership shall work in good faith with the Independent Appraiser to resolve any disputed items. As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ten days after the referral of the dispute, the parties will use best efforts to cause Independent Appraiser to deliver to the Existing Manager and the applicable Existing Partnership a report that sets forth its resolution of the disputed items and amounts and its calculation of the applicable Fund Value. The decision of the Independent Appraiser shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.

Section 7.02 Interpretation; Construction.

(a) The table of contents and headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to a Section, Exhibit, or Article, such reference shall be to a Section of, Exhibit to, or Article of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (i) to an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (ii) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and the word “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and does not simply mean “if.” A reference in this Agreement to $ or dollars is to U.S. dollars. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

(b) The parties have participated jointly in negotiating and drafting this Agreement.

Section 7.11 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, 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 in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

-27-

Section 7.14 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies expressly conferred upon a party to this Agreement will be cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any other remedy contained in this Agreement, at Law, or in equity.
