(a) cause the Subject Units then owned beneficially or of record to be counted as present thereat for purposes of determining a quorum;

(b) be present (in person or by proxy) and vote (or cause to be voted), or deliver (or cause to be delivered) a written consent with respect to, the Subject Units then owned beneficially or of record:

(i) in favor of (A) adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger and the other Contemplated Transactions and (B) each of the actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in respect of which approval of the Company’s Members is requested (collectively, the “Transaction Matters”); and

(ii) against (A) any change in the Company Board, (B) any Acquisition Proposal or any other proposal made in opposition to the Merger Agreement, the Merger or the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (C) any other proposal or action that would constitute a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company under the Merger Agreement or of the Unitholder under this Agreement or that is intended or could reasonably be expected to prevent, frustrate, impede, interfere with, materially delay or adversely affect the Merger or other Contemplated Transactions.

(c) Subject to Section 1.4, the Unitholder agrees that the obligations specified in this Section 1.2 shall not be affected by any Adverse Recommendation Change except to the extent the Merger Agreement is terminated as a result thereof.

(d) During the time this Agreement is in effect, except as contemplated by Article V, the Unitholder shall retain at all times the right to vote the Subject Units in the Unitholder’s sole discretion, and without any other limitation, on any matters other than those set forth in this Section 1.2 that are at any time or from time to time presented for consideration to the Company’s Members generally.

1.3 Grant of Irrevocable Proxy; Appointment of Proxy.

(a) The Unitholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Parent and any duly appointed designee thereof, as, the Unitholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of the Unitholder, to attend any meeting of the Members of the Company on behalf of the Unitholder with respect to the matters set forth in Section 1.2(b)(i) and Section 1.2(b)(ii), to include the Subject Units then owned beneficially or of record in any computation for purposes of establishing a quorum at any such meeting of the Members of the Company, and to vote all Subject Units then owned beneficially or of record, or to grant a consent or approval in respect of the Subject Units, in connection with any meeting of the Members of the Company or any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of the Members of the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2. Parent agrees not to exercise the proxy granted herein for any purpose other than with respect to the matters set forth in Section 1.2(b)(i) and Section 1.2(b)(ii). The Unitholder hereby affirms that the proxy set forth in this Section 1.3 is given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, and that such proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of the Unitholder under Section 1.2 of this Agreement. The Unitholder hereby further affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and, except as set forth in this Section 1.3, is intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 18-302 of the DLLCA during the term of this Agreement.

(b) The Unitholder hereby represents that any proxies heretofore given in respect of the Subject Units, if any, with respect to the matters set forth in Section 1.2(b)(i) and Section 1.2(b)(ii) are revocable, and hereby revokes such proxies.

1.4 Change in Recommendation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the Company Board or the Special Committee makes an Adverse Recommendation Change (the “Trigger Event”), the obligations of the Unitholder under Sections 1.1 and 1.2 above to consent or vote in favor of approving the Transaction Matters shall be modified such that the number of Subject Units covered by any action by written consent or voted by the Unitholder shall be equal to the sum (the “Trigger Event Sum”) of (rounded up to the nearest whole unit):

(a) the number of Subject Units that would represent, as of the time of the Trigger Event twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate voting power of the issued and outstanding Class A Units and Class B Units voting together as a single class; plus

(b) the number of Subject Units the aggregate voting power of which, as a percentage of the aggregate voting power of all Subject Units not covered by Section 1.4(a), is equal to the Proportionate Percentage. The term “Proportionate Percentage,” for purposes of this Agreement, means the percentage of aggregate voting power with respect to all outstanding Class A Units and Class B Units held by Members of the Company (excluding the Unitholder), voting as a single class (taking into account that each holder of Class A Units is entitled to one (1) vote per unit and each holder of Class B Units is entitled to ten (10) votes per unit), voting in favor of approving the Transaction Matters. For example, if fifty percent (50%) of the total aggregate voting power with respect to all outstanding Class A Units and Class B Units held by Members of the Company (excluding the Unitholder) consents or votes to approve the Transaction Matters, the Unitholder must consent or vote fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate voting power represented by all Subject Units not covered by Section 1.4(a) to approve the Transaction Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that a Trigger Event occurs, the number of Subject Units that the Unitholder consents or votes in favor of approving any of the Transaction Matters shall in no event exceed the Trigger Event Sum.

The Parties agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether brought by any Party or any of its Affiliates or against any Party or any of its Affiliates) shall be brought in the Delaware Chancery Court or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or other Delaware state court, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees that service of process on such Party as provided in Section 6.02 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.

6.12 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, the Parties agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court referred to in Section 6.7, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy (and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
