-1-

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the undersigned parties agree as follows:

Article I
DETERMINATION OF REALIZED TAX BENEFIT

Section 1.01 Realized Tax Benefit and Realized Tax Detriment. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the parties intend that, for a Taxable Year, the excess, if any, of (a) the Hypothetical Tax Liability over the Actual Tax Liability (such excess, the “Realized Tax Benefit”) or (b) the Actual Tax Liability over the Hypothetical Tax Liability (such excess, the “Realized Tax Detriment”) shall measure the decrease or increase (respectively) in the Actual Tax Liability for such Taxable Year that is attributable to the Tax Assets, determined using a “with and without” methodology (that is, treating the Tax Assets as the last tax attributes used in such Taxable Year). If all or a portion of the Actual Tax Liability for the Taxable Year arises as a result of an audit by a Taxing Authority of any Taxable Year, such liability shall not be included in determining the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment unless and until there has been a Determination with respect to that portion of the Actual Tax Liability.

Section 1.02 Assumptions, Conventions, and Principles for Calculations. The “Actual Tax Liability” shall be the Tax liability of the Corporation as reflected on the relevant Corporate Tax Return calculated (y) using such reasonable methods as the Corporation determines and (z) substituting the Basis Adjustment for any adjustment under sections 732, 734, 743, or 1012 of the Code (as applicable) as a result of (i) an Exchange or (ii) the Blocker Mergers (including any adjustment under section 743 of the Code that the Corporation directly or indirectly owns as a result of the Blocker Mergers). In making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Corporation shall use the following assumptions, conventions, and principles:

(a) Treatment of Tax Benefit Payments. Tax Benefit Payments shall be treated in part as Imputed Interest and in part as additional purchase price for (i) interests in the Blockers in the case of the Blocker Mergers, (except as otherwise required by the Code) or (ii) Units in the case of an Exchange. Tax Benefit Payments (other than amounts accounted for as Imputed Interest) arising as a result of an Exchange shall be treated as upward purchase price adjustments that give rise to further Basis Adjustments to Adjusted Assets for the Corporation in the year of payment, and, as a result, such additional Basis Adjustments shall be incorporated into the current year calculation and into future year calculations, as appropriate.

(b) Imputed Interest. The Actual Tax Liability shall take into account the deduction of the portion of each Tax Benefit Payment that is accounted for as Imputed Interest under the Code due to the characterization of such Tax Benefit Payments as additional consideration payable by the Corporation for the Units acquired in connection with an Exchange or the Blocker Mergers.

(c) Carryovers and Carrybacks. Carryovers or carrybacks of any income, gain, loss (including any NOLs), deduction, or credit attributable to the Tax Assets shall be considered to be subject to the rules of the Code and the Treasury Regulations governing the use, limitation and expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type (including sections 382, 383 and 384 of the Code). If a carryover or carryback of any Tax item includes a portion that is attributable to a Tax Asset and another portion that is not, the portion attributable to the Tax Asset shall be considered to be used in accordance with the “with and without” methodology (that is, treating the Tax Assets as the last tax attributes used in such Taxable Year).

-2-

(d) State and Local Taxes. For purposes of calculating the Actual Tax Liability with respect to a Taxable Year, the Corporation may, but shall not be required to, assume that the Corporation’s state and local Tax liability (the “Assumed SALT Liability”) equals (x) the product of (i) the taxable income and gain determined for the Taxable Year in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) four percent (4%) or (y) if the Corporation determines in its sole discretion (but, in any case, not more frequently than annually) that the percentage described in clause (x) materially differs from the actual state and local liability, then, in consultation with the TRA Representative, the Corporation will use such other percentage as the Corporation reasonably determines from time to time reflects its blended state and local tax rate (using the apportionment factors set forth on the relevant Corporate Tax Returns for that Taxable Year unless otherwise determined by the Corporation after consultation with the TRA Representative). Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (y) of the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall not use a rate that is materially lower than the rate initially used to calculate the Assumed SALT Liability without the consent of the TRA Representative, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

(e) Treatment of State and Local and Non-United States Taxes. The provisions of this Agreement, including the assumption, conventions, and principles with respect to the determination of income and gain, shall apply to state and local and non-United States tax matters mutatis mutandis.

Section 1.03 Procedures Relating to Calculation of Tax Benefits.

(a) Preparation and Delivery of Schedules.

(i) Exchange Basis Schedule and Merger Date Asset Schedule.

(A) Merger Date Asset Schedule. The Merger Date Asset Schedules are attached as Annex A with respect to the Blockers. The calculations required by this Agreement shall be made in accordance with the Merger Date Asset Schedules. If any calculation is required to be made before the finalized Merger Date Asset Schedules are agreed upon in accordance with this Section 1.03(a)(i)(A) and Section 1.03(b), reasonable estimates shall be used. Within 75 days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for the Taxable Year in which the Blocker Mergers and the Merger occurred, the Corporation shall deliver draft Merger Date Asset Schedules to the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders. Within 120 days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for the Taxable Year in which the Blocker Mergers and the Merger occurred, the Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders the finalized Merger Date Asset Schedule, as determined in accordance with ‎Section 1.03(b) (the “Finalized Merger Date Asset Schedules”). The Merger Date Asset Schedules shall show, in reasonable detail, (v) summary of Tax Assets resulting from the Blocker Mergers, (w) the actual common tax basis of the Adjusted Assets as of the Merger Date, (x) any Basis Adjustment with respect to the Adjusted Assets as a result of the Blocker Mergers, (y) the period or periods, if any, over which the common tax basis of the Adjusted Assets are amortized and/or depreciable, and (z) the period or periods, if any, over which each Basis Adjustment is amortizable and/or depreciable.

-3-

(B) Exchange Basis Schedule. Within 120 days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for each Taxable Year in which any Exchange has occurred, the Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Representative and Blocked TRA Holders a schedule (the “Exchange Basis Schedule”) that shows, in reasonable detail, (w) the actual common tax basis of the Adjusted Assets as of each Exchange Date, (x) the Basis Adjustment with respect to the Adjusted Assets as a result of the Exchanges effected in such Taxable Year and all prior Taxable Years ending after the date of this Agreement, calculated (1) in the aggregate and (2) with respect to Exchanges by each TRA Holder, (y) the period or periods, if any, over which the common tax basis of the Adjusted Assets are amortizable and/or depreciable, and (z) the period or periods, if any, over which each Basis Adjustment is amortizable and/or depreciable. The calculations required by this Agreement, shall be made in accordance with the Exchange Basis Schedule. If any calculation is required to be made before the Exchange Basis Schedule is agreed upon, reasonable estimates shall be used.

(ii) Tax Benefit Schedule. Within 120 days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for any Taxable Year ending after the date of this Agreement, the Corporation shall provide to the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders either (A) (x) a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”), and (y) Amended Merger Date Asset Schedules and/or Exchange Basis Schedule, as applicable, reflecting the cumulative use of Tax Assets through the end of such Taxable Year, or, (B) if there is no Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for that Taxable Year, notice to that effect.

(iii) Supporting Material; Review Right. Each time the Corporation delivers to the TRA Representative or the Blocked TRA Holders the Merger Date Asset Schedules, Exchange Basis Schedule, Early Termination Schedule or a Tax Benefit Schedule (or at such other times as the TRA Representative or the Blocked TRA Holders may reasonably request), the Corporation shall also deliver to the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders schedules and work papers providing reasonable detail regarding the preparation of the schedules and a Supporting Letter confirming the calculations and allow the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders reasonable access, at no cost to the TRA Representative or the Blocked TRA Holders, to the appropriate representatives at the Corporation and, if applicable, the Advisory Firm in connection with a review of such schedules or workpapers. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall ensure that any schedule that is delivered to the TRA Representative and Blocked TRA Holders identifies any material assumptions or operating procedures or principles that were used for purposes of preparing such schedule.

-4-

(iv) Provision of Information to TRA Holders. Upon the reasonable request of a TRA Holder, the TRA Representative shall provide to that TRA Holder, in a reasonably prompt manner, such information that the TRA Representative receives pursuant to this Agreement (including the schedules described in this ‎Section 1.03), but only to the extent that the TRA Representative determines that such information is material, relevant, and relates to that TRA Holder.

(b) Objection to, and Finalization of, Schedules. Each Merger Date Asset Schedule, Exchange Basis Schedule, or Tax Benefit Schedule, including any Amended Schedule delivered pursuant to ‎Section 1.03(c), shall become final and binding on all parties unless the TRA Representative or the Blocked TRA Holders, within 30 days after receiving an Merger Date Asset Schedule, an Exchange Basis Schedule, or a Tax Benefit Schedule, provides the Corporation with notice of a material objection to such schedule made in good faith (an “Objection Notice”). If the Corporation and the TRA Representative and/or the Blocked TRA Holders, as applicable, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in the Objection Notice within 30 days after receipt by the Corporation of the Objection Notice, the Corporation and the TRA Representative and/or the Blocked TRA Holders, as applicable, shall employ the dispute resolution procedures as described in ‎Section 6.09 (the “Dispute Resolution Procedures”).

(c) Amendment of Schedules. After finalization of an Merger Date Asset Schedule, Exchange Basis Schedule, or a Tax Benefit Schedule in accordance with ‎Section 1.03(b), any Merger Date Asset Schedule, Exchange Basis Schedule, or Tax Benefit Schedule shall be amended from time to time by the Corporation (i) in accordance with ‎Section 1.03(a)(ii), (ii) to correct material inaccuracies in any such schedule, (iii) to reflect a material change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year, including any such change attributable to either a carryback or carryforward of a Tax Item to such Taxable Year or to an amended Tax Return filed with respect to such Taxable Year, (iv) to adjust the Exchange Basis Schedule to take into account material payments made pursuant to this Agreement, (v) to reflect the cumulative use of Tax Assets through the end of such Taxable Year, (vi) to comply with the Arbitrators’ determinations under the Dispute Resolution Procedures, or (vii) in connection with a material Determination affecting such schedule (any schedule amended in accordance with this ‎Section 1.03(c), an “Amended Schedule” or, as applicable, an “Amended Merger Date Asset Schedule”, “Amended Exchange Basis Schedule”, or “Amended Tax Benefit Schedule”). Any Amended Schedule shall (x) be subject to the finalization procedures set forth in ‎Section 1.03(b) and the Dispute Resolution Procedures set forth in ‎Section 6.09, and (y) delivered to the TRA Representative and Blocked TRA Holders.

Article II
TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS, THE CONSOLIDATED GROUP, AND

TRANSFERS OF CORPORATE ASSETS

Section 2.01 Payments.

(a) General Rule. The Corporation shall pay to each TRA Holder for each Taxable Year the Tax Benefit Payment that is attributable to that TRA Holder at the times set forth in ‎Section 2.01(c). For purposes of this ‎‎Section 2.01(a), the amount of a Tax Benefit Payment that is attributable to a TRA Holder shall be determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate Tax Benefit Payment for the Taxable Year by (ii) a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Units held by the TRA Holder immediately after the Merger (but before the Blocker Mergers), and (y) the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Units held by all TRA Holders immediately after the Merger (but before the Blocker Mergers). For purposes of this Section 2.01, the Units held by any Blocker are treated as held by the Blocked TRA Holders that were owners of the Blocker immediately before the applicable Blocker Merger in proportion to their ownership interest in the Blocker as set forth in Schedule 2.01(a).

(b) Determination of Tax Assets. The Tax Assets shall be determined separately with respect to (i) each separate Exchange, on a Unit-by-Unit basis by reference to the Exchange of a Unit and the resulting Tax Assets with respect to the Corporation and (ii) the Blocker (or, after the Blocker Mergers, the Corporation).

(c) Timing of Tax Benefit Payments. The Corporation shall make each Tax Benefit Payment not later than 10 days after a Tax Benefit Schedule delivered to the TRA Representative and the Blocked TRA Holders become final in accordance with ‎Section 1.03(b). The Corporation may, but is not required to, make one or more estimated payments at other times during the Taxable Year and reduce future payments so that the total amount paid to a TRA Holder in respect of a Taxable Year equals the amount calculated with respect to such Taxable Year pursuant to ‎Section 2.01(a). Notwithstanding the provision of the two preceding sentences, no TRA Holder shall receive any Tax Benefit Payment until such TRA Holder has exchanged at least five (5) percent or more of the aggregate number of Units held by the TRA Holder on the day of the Merger (the “Minimum Exchanged Units”). Any Tax Benefit Payments not paid to a TRA Holder by reason of the preceding sentence shall be paid to the TRA Holder once it has exchanged at least the Minimum Exchanged Units.

(d) Optional Cap on Payments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Unblocked TRA Holders may elect with respect to any Exchange to limit the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments made to such TRA Holder in respect of that Exchange to a specified dollar amount, a specified percentage of the amount realized by the TRA Holder with respect to the Exchange, or a specified portion of the Basis Adjustment with respect to the Adjusted Assets as a result of the Exchange. The TRA Holder shall exercise its rights under the preceding sentence by including a notice of its desire to impose such a limit and the specified limitation and such other details as may be reasonably necessary (including whether such limitation includes the Additional Amounts in respect of any such Exchange) in the Elective Exchange Notice delivered in accordance with Section 12.01(b) of the LLC Agreement.

-6-

Section 2.02 No Duplicative Payments. The provisions of this Agreement are not intended to, and shall not be construed to, result in duplicative payment of any amount (including interest) required under this Agreement.

Section 2.03 Order of Payments. If for any reason (including, but not limited to, the lack of sufficient Available Cash to satisfy the Corporation’s obligations to make all Tax Benefit Payments due in a particular Taxable Year under this Agreement) the Corporation does not fully satisfy its obligations to make all payments due under this Agreement in a particular Taxable Year, then (i) the TRA Holders shall receive payments under this Agreement in respect of such Taxable Year in the same proportion as they would have received if the Corporation had been able to fully satisfy its payment obligations, without favoring one TRA Holder over the other TRA Holders, and (ii) no payment under this Agreement shall be made in respect of any subsequent Taxable Year until all such payments under this Agreement in respect of the current and all prior Taxable Years have been made in full.

Section 2.04 No Escrow or Clawback; Reduction of Future Payments. No amounts due to a TRA Holder under this Agreement shall be escrowed, and no TRA Holder shall be required to return any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment previously made to it. No TRA Holder shall be required to make a payment to the Corporation on account of any Realized Tax Detriment. If a TRA Holder receives amounts in excess of its entitlements under this Agreement (including as a result of an audit adjustment or Realized Tax Detriment), future payments under this Agreement shall be reduced until the amount received by the TRA Holder equals the amount the TRA Holder would have received had it not received the amount in excess of such entitlements.

Section 2.05 Limits on Aggregate Tax Benefit Payment.

(a) Calculation of Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amount. If, but for the application of this Section 2.05, this Agreement would require the Corporation to make Tax Benefit Payments with respect to any Taxable Year such that the sum of (i) such Tax Benefit Payments plus (ii) the Actual Tax Liability for such Taxable Year paid by the Corporation, exceeds the Hypothetical Tax Liability for such Taxable Year, then the Tax Benefit Payments for that Taxable Year shall be reduced so that the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments for that Taxable Year do not result in any such excess (the amount of that reduction, if any, the “Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amount”).

(b) Impact of Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amount. The Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amount shall be borne by the TRA Holders in the same proportion as the Tax Benefit Payments they would have received if this Section 2.05 were not in this Agreement, without favoring one TRA Holder over the other TRA Holders. The Corporation shall pay the Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amount as a Tax Benefit Payment in subsequent years to the TRA Holders whose Tax Benefit Payments were reduced by reason of this Section 2.05, with the limitation contained in this Section 2.05 being applied to each such payment. No payment under this Agreement shall be made in respect of any subsequent Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payment Reduction Amounts have been paid in full.

Article III
EARLY TERMINATIONS

Section 3.01 Early Termination Events.

(a) Early Termination Election by Corporation. The Corporation may terminate all or a portion of the rights under this Agreement with respect to the Blocked TRA Holders and/or all or a portion of the Units held (including those previously Exchanged) by all TRA Holders at any time by (A) delivering an Early Termination Notice as provided in ‎Section 3.02(a) and (B) paying the Early Termination Payment as provided in ‎Section 3.03(a). If the Corporation terminates less than all of the rights under this Agreement with respect to the TRA Holders, such termination shall be made among the TRA Holders in such manner that it results in each TRA Holder receiving the same proportion of the Early Termination Payment made at that time as each TRA Holder would have received had the Corporation terminated all of the rights of the TRA Holders under this Agreement at that time.

(b) Deemed Early Termination.

(i) Deemed Early Termination Event. Upon a Material Uncured Breach of this Agreement with respect to a TRA Holder (an “Affected TRA Holder”) or as soon as reasonably practicable before a Change of Control (each, a “Deemed Early Termination Event”), (A) the Corporation (or the TRA Representative (with a copy to the Corporation)) shall deliver, (x) in the case of a Material Uncured Breach, to the Affected TRA Holder(s) or, (y) in the case of a Change of Control, to all TRA Holders, an Early Termination Notice as provided in ‎Section 3.02(a), and (B) all obligations under this Agreement with respect to such TRA Holder(s) shall be accelerated on the date of such Material Uncured Breach or on the effective date of such Change of Control, as applicable.

(ii) Payment upon Deemed Early Termination Event. The amount payable to the applicable TRA Holder as a result of an acceleration contemplated in ‎Section 3.01(b)(i) shall equal the sum of:

(A) an Early Termination Payment calculated with respect to such TRA Holder(s) pursuant to this Article III as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of the Deemed Early Termination Event using the Valuation Assumptions but substituting the phrase “the date of the Deemed Early Termination Event” in each place where the phrase “Early Termination Date” appears;

-8-

(B) any Tax Benefit Payment agreed to by the Corporation and such TRA Holder(s) as due and payable but unpaid as of the date of such Deemed Early Termination Event; and

(C) any Tax Benefit Payment due to such TRA Holder(s) for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of such Deemed Early Termination Event (except to the extent that any amounts described in clauses (B) or (C) are included in the amount payable upon early termination).

(iii) Waiver of Deemed Early Termination. A TRA Holder may elect to waive the acceleration of obligations under this Agreement triggered by a Deemed Early Termination Event by submitting a waiver in writing to the Corporation within 30 days after the date of the Early Termination Notice. If a TRA Holder elects to waive the acceleration of obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall continue to apply with respect to that TRA Holder as though no Deemed Early Termination Event had occurred, and, if there are any due and unpaid amounts with respect to that TRA Holder, the Corporation shall pay those amounts to the TRA Holder in the manner provided in this Agreement.

Section 3.02 Early Termination Notice and Early Termination Schedule.

(a) Notice; Schedule.

(i) Delivery of Early Termination Notice and Early Termination Schedule. If the Corporation chooses to exercise its right of early termination under ‎Section 3.01(a) above, or if there is a Deemed Early Termination Event under ‎Section 3.01(b) above, the Corporation shall, within 30 days after the Corporation elects to terminate this Agreement or the effective date of the Deemed Early Termination Event, deliver to each TRA Holder whose rights are being terminated a notice (an “Early Termination Notice”) specifying (x) such early termination and (y) the date on which the termination of rights is to be effective (the “Early Termination Date”), which date shall be (I) the date of the Material Uncured Breach of this Agreement, in the case of a Material Uncured Breach, (II) the effective date of the Change of Control in the case of a Change of Control, and (III) not less than 30 days and not more than 120 days after the date of the Early Termination Notice in the case of a termination pursuant to ‎Section 3.01(a). Within 60 days after the Corporation delivers an Early Termination Notice, the Corporation shall deliver to the applicable TRA Holder(s) a schedule showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment with respect to each TRA Holder as determined in accordance with ‎Section 3.01(b)(ii)(A), (B) and (C) (the “Early Termination Schedule”), together with a Supporting Letter in respect of such schedule.

-9-

(ii) Finalization of Early Termination Schedule; Disputes. The applicable Early Termination Schedule delivered to a TRA Holder pursuant to ‎Section 3.02(a)(i) shall become final and binding on the Corporation and such TRA Holder unless that TRA Holder, within 30 days after receiving the Early Termination Schedule, provides the Corporation with notice of a material objection to such schedule made in good faith (“Material Objection Notice”). If the Corporation and such TRA Holder are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in the Material Objection Notice within 30 days after receipt by the Corporation of the Material Objection Notice, the Corporation and the TRA Holder shall employ the Dispute Resolution Procedures set forth in ‎Section 6.09.

(iii) Withdrawal of Early Termination Notice. The Corporation may withdraw an Early Termination Notice delivered in connection with ‎Section 3.01(a) before the Early Termination Payment is due and payable to any applicable TRA Holder(s).

(b) Amendment of Early Termination Schedule. After finalization of an Early Termination Schedule in accordance with ‎Section 3.02(a)(ii), any Early Termination Schedule shall be amended by the Corporation at any time before the Early Termination Payment is made (i) in connection with a Determination materially affecting such schedule, (ii) to correct material inaccuracies in any such schedule, or (iii) to comply with the Arbitrators’ determinations under ‎Section 6.09. Any amendment shall be subject to the procedures of ‎Section 3.02(a)(ii) and the Dispute Resolution Procedures set forth in ‎Section 6.09.

Section 3.03 Early Termination Payment.

(a) Amount and Timing of Early Termination Payment. The payment due to a TRA Holder in connection with an early termination described in ‎Section 3.01(a) or 3.01(b) (the “Early Termination Payment”) shall be an amount equal to the present value, discounted at the Early Termination Rate as of the Early Termination Date, of all Tax Benefit Payments that the Corporation would be required to pay to the TRA Holder beginning from the Early Termination Date and assuming that the Valuation Assumptions are applied. Not later than 10 days after an Early Termination Schedule delivered to a TRA Holder becomes final in accordance with ‎Section 3.02(a)(ii), the Corporation shall pay to the TRA Holder the Early Termination Payment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other amounts due pursuant to ‎Section 3.01(b)(ii)(B) and Section 3.01(b)(ii)(C)) due to that TRA Holder.

(b) Effect of Early Termination Payment. Upon payment of the Early Termination Payment by the Corporation under Section 3.03, neither the TRA Holder nor the Corporation shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement in respect of the payments that otherwise would be due pursuant to this Agreement or the Units (including those previously Exchanged) with respect to which the rights under this Agreement have been terminated in accordance with Section 3.01, other than for any (i) payment under this Agreement that is due and payable but has not been paid as of the Early Termination Date and (ii) Tax Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of the Early Termination Date (except to the extent that the amounts described in clauses (i) or (ii) are included in the Early Termination Payment). For the avoidance of doubt, if an Exchange occurs after the Corporation has made an Early Termination Payments with respect to all Units (including those previously Exchanged), the Corporation shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Exchange other than any obligations described in clause (i) or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.

-10-

Section 3.04 Admission of the Corporation into a Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets.

(a) Admission of the Corporation into a Consolidated Group. If the Corporation is or becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a consolidated income Tax Return pursuant to sections 1501 et seq. of the Code or any corresponding provisions of state, local or non-U.S. law (a “Consolidated Group”), then: (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to the Consolidated Group as a whole; and (ii) Tax Benefit Payments, Early Termination Payments and other applicable items in this Agreement shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income of the Consolidated Group as a whole. Nothing in this Section 3.04(a) shall be interpreted to alter the circumstances that give rise to an early termination as described in Section 3.01(a) or 3.01(b).

(b) Transfers of Assets by Corporation.

(i) General Rule. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Corporation transfers one or more assets to a corporation with which the transferor does not file a consolidated Tax Return pursuant to section 1501 et. seq. of the Code, then, for purposes of calculating the amount of any payment due under this Agreement, the transferor shall be treated as having disposed of such asset(s) in a fully taxable transaction on the date of the transfer.

(ii) Rules of Application. For purposes of this Section 3.04(b):

(A) Except as provided in Section 3.04(b)(ii)(B), the consideration deemed to be received by the transferor in the transaction shall be deemed to equal the fair market value of the transferred asset(s) (taking into account the principles of section 7701(g) of the Code);

(B) The consideration deemed to be received by the transferor in exchange for a partnership interest shall be deemed to equal the fair market value of the partnership interest increased by any liabilities (as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.752-1(a)(4)) of the partnership allocated to the transferor with regard to such transferred interest under section 752 of the Code immediately after the transfer; and

(C) A transfer to a “corporation” (other than the Corporation) includes a transfer to any entity or arrangement classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and “partnership” includes any entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes

Section 6.07 Assignment; Amendments; Waiver of Compliance; Successors and Assigns.

(a) Assignment. No TRA Holder may, directly or indirectly, assign or otherwise transfer its rights under this Agreement to any person without the express prior written consent of the Corporation, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that, the Corporation may withhold, condition, or delay its consent in its sole discretion to any transfer by a TRA Holder (i) if the TRA Holder is an original signatory to this Agreement and that TRA Holder seeks to transfer a portion of its rights, in the aggregate, to more than three transferees, and (ii) if the TRA Holder is not an original signatory to this Agreement and that TRA Holder seeks to transfer less than all of its rights. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, to the extent Units are transferred in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement, the transferring TRA Holder may assign to the transferee all, but not less than all, of that TRA Holder’s rights under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Units. Any assignment or transfer effected pursuant to this Section 6.07 shall be void unless the assignee or transferee, as applicable, executes and delivers a joinder to this Agreement agreeing to become a “TRA Holder” for all purposes of this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in such joinder), with such joinder being, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this ‎Section 6.07(a), no TRA Holder shall have any right to assign or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, any of its rights under this Agreement to any person unless the TRA Holder (together with its Affiliates) held at least 10 percent of the total Units outstanding immediately before the Blocker Mergers.

(b) Amendments.

(i) General Rule. No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is approved in writing by the Corporation, the Company, and the TRA Holders who would be entitled to receive (x) in the case of an amendment in connection with a Change of Control, at least seventy five percent (75%) or, and (y) in connection with any amendment not described in clause (x), at least two-thirds of, the Early Termination Payments payable to all TRA Holders (as determined by the Corporation) if the Corporation had exercised its right of early termination under ‎Section 3.01(a) on the date of the most recent Exchange prior to such amendment (excluding, for purposes of this sentence, all payments made to any TRA Holder pursuant to this Agreement since the date of such most recent Exchange).

-17-

(ii) Amendments with Disproportionate Adverse Effect. In addition to the requirements in ‎Section 6.07(b)(i), if a proposed amendment would have a disproportionate adverse effect on the payments one or more TRA Holders will or may receive under this Agreement, such amendment shall not be effective without the written consent of at least two-thirds of the TRA Holders who would be disproportionately and adversely affected (with such two-thirds threshold being measured as set forth in ‎Section 6.07(b)(i) and if there are fewer than three affected TRA Holders, the written consent of all such TRA Holders).

(c) Waiver of Compliance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

(d) Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

Section 6.08 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.

Section 6.09 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Disputes as to Interpretation and Calculations. Any Dispute as to the interpretation of, or calculations required by, this Agreement shall be resolved by the Corporation and the TRA Representative, acting reasonably and in good faith; provided, that such resolution shall reflect a reasonable interpretation of the provisions of this Agreement, consistent with the goal that the provisions of this Agreement result in the TRA Holders receiving eighty-five percent (85%) of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit and the Additional Amount thereon; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this ‎Section 6.09(a), any Dispute as to the interpretation of, or calculations required by, this Agreement that involve the Blocked TRA Holders shall, at the request of Blocked TRA Holders, be resolved in accordance with ‎Section 6.09(b), ‎Section 6.09(c), ‎Section 6.09(d), ‎Section 6.09(e), and ‎Section 6.09(f) and not pursuant to this ‎Section 6.09(a).

(b) Dispute Resolution; Arbitration. If any dispute is not resolved in accordance with Section 6.09(a), the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, or the interpretation, breach, termination or validity thereof (“Dispute”).

The Arbitrators, with the consent of the parties, may, or, at the direction of the parties, shall, delegate some or all of the issues under dispute (including Disputes under ‎Section 1.03, ‎Section 2.01(c), ‎Article III, or ‎Section 5.02) to a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Arbitrators and agreed to by the Corporation, the TRA Representative, and the Blocked TRA Holders, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in any Dispute proceeding (i) the TRA Representative shall represent the interests of any TRA Holder(s) other than the Blocked TRA Holders in any Dispute and no TRA Holder other than the Blocked TRA Holders shall individually have the right to participate in any proceeding and (ii) the Blocked TRA Holders shall represent the interest of the Blocked TRA Holders.

(c) Selection of Arbitrators; Timing. There shall be three Arbitrators who shall be appointed by the parties within 20 days of receipt by a party of a copy of the demand for arbitration. The Corporation shall appoint one arbitrator and the TRA Representative and, if the arbitration involves the Blocked TRA Holders, the Blocked TRA Holders, shall appoint one arbitrator (with the appointment being subject, in each case, to the reasonable objection of the other party), and the parties shall jointly appoint the third arbitrator. If any of the Arbitrators is not appointed within 20 days, and the parties have not agreed to extend the 20-day time period, such arbitrator shall be appointed by JAMS in accordance with the listing, striking and ranking procedure in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, with each party being given a limited number of strikes, except for cause. Any arbitrator appointed by JAMS shall be a retired judge or a practicing attorney with no less than fifteen years of experience with corporate and partnership tax matters and an experienced arbitrator. In rendering an award, the Arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the state of Delaware, notwithstanding any Delaware choice-of-law rules. The costs of arbitration shall be split equally between the parties participating in the arbitration.

(d) Arbitration Award; Damages; Attorney Fees. The arbitral award shall be in writing and shall state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based. The Arbitrators shall not be permitted to award punitive, non-economic, or any non-compensatory damages. The award shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues, or accounting presented to the Arbitrators. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over any party or any of its assets. Any costs or fees (including all attorneys’ fees and expenses) incident to enforcing the award shall be charged against the party resisting such enforcement. Each party shall bear its own attorney’s fees incurred in the underlying arbitration.

-19-

(e) Confidentiality. All Disputes shall be resolved in a confidential manner. The Arbitrators shall agree to hold any information received during the arbitration in the strictest of confidence and shall not disclose to any non-party the existence, contents or results of the arbitration or any other information about such arbitration. The parties to the arbitration shall not disclose any information about the evidence adduced or the documents produced by the other party in the arbitration proceedings or about the existence, contents or results of the proceeding except as may be required by law, regulatory or governmental authority or as may be necessary in an action in aid of arbitration or for enforcement of an arbitral award. Before making any disclosure permitted by the preceding sentence (other than private disclosure to financial regulatory authorities), the party intending to make such disclosure shall use reasonable efforts to give the other party reasonable written notice of the intended disclosure and afford the other party a reasonable opportunity to protect its interests.

(f) Discovery. Barring extraordinary circumstances (as determined in the sole discretion of the Arbitrators), discovery shall be limited to pre-hearing disclosure of documents that each side shall present in support of its case, and non-privileged documents essential to a matter of import in the proceeding for which a party has demonstrated a substantial need. The parties agree that they shall produce to each other all such requested non-privileged documents, except documents objected to and with respect to which a ruling has been or shall be sought from the Arbitrators. The parties agree that information from the Corporate Tax Return (including by way of a redacted Corporate Tax Return) shall be sufficient, and that the Corporation shall not be compelled to produce any unredacted Tax Returns. There will be no depositions or live witness testimony.

Section 6.10 Withholding. The Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts, if any, as the Corporation is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and are (or, when due, will be) paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by the Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such withholding was made. Each TRA Holder shall promptly provide the Corporation or other applicable withholding agent with any necessary tax forms, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, as the Corporation may request from time to time in determining whether any such deductions and withholdings are required under any applicable law, including Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or the appropriate Form W-8, as applicable. Before any withholding is made pursuant to this ‎Section 6.10, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) notify the applicable TRA Holder and (b) cooperate in good faith with such TRA Holder to avoid such withholding, unless the TRA Holder has failed to comply with the provisions of the preceding sentence.

Section 6.11 Confidentiality.

(a) General Rule. Each TRA Holder and each of their assignees acknowledges and agrees that the information of the Corporation is confidential and, except in the course of performing any duties as necessary for the Corporation and its Affiliates, as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement, shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters or information of the Corporation or the Company, or the Affiliates or successors of the Corporation or the Company, and the other TRA Holders acquired pursuant to this Agreement, including marketing, investment, performance data, credit and financial information and other business affairs of the Corporation or the Company, or the Affiliates or successors of the Corporation or the Company, or the other TRA Holders.

-20-

(b) Exceptions. This Section 6.11 shall not apply to (i) any information that has been made publicly available by the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of such TRA Holder in violation of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community and (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent necessary for a TRA Holder to prepare and file his or her Tax Returns, to respond to any inquiries regarding such Tax Returns from any Taxing Authority or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit by any Taxing Authority with respect to such Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.11, each TRA Holder and assignee (and each employee, representative or other agent of such TRA Holder or assignee, as applicable) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of (x) the Corporation, the Company, the TRA Holders and their Affiliates and (y) any of their transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the TRA Holders relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

(c) Enforcement. If a TRA Holder or assignee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 6.11, the Corporation shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 6.11 specifically enforced by injunctive relief or otherwise by any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to the Corporation or any of its Affiliates or the other TRA Holders and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate remedy to such Persons. Such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 6.12 LLC Agreement. For U.S. federal income Tax purposes, to the extent this Agreement imposes obligations upon the Company or a member of the Company, this Agreement shall be treated as part of the LLC Agreement as described in section 761(c) of the Code and sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

Section 6.13 Joinder.
