The Partnership shall record in the name of the Recipient the number of Profits Interest Units (“LTIP Units,” as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement) awarded as of the Grant Date. The Partnership and the Recipient acknowledge and agree that the Profits Interest Units are hereby issued to the Recipient for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Partnership and its Affiliates. If the Recipient is not already a partner of the Partnership pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement (defined therein as a “Partner”), the Partnership admits the Recipient as an “LTIP Unit Limited Partner” (as defined therein) and a Partner on the terms and conditions in this Agreement, the Plan and the Limited Partnership Agreement. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Recipient shall, automatically and without further action on the Recipient’s part, be deemed to be a signatory of and bound by the Limited Partnership Agreement. At the request of the Partnership, the Recipient shall execute the Limited Partnership Agreement or a counterpart signature page thereto.
3.Rights as a Unitholder. The Profits Interest Units shall be treated as a “profits interest” within the meaning of Revenue Procedure 93-27, and the Recipient shall be treated as having received the interest on the Grant Date as contemplated under Section 4 of Revenue Procedure 2001-43. As the owner of the Profits Interest Units for income tax purposes, the Recipient shall take into account the Recipient’s distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit associated with the Profits Interest Units as determined in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement and this Agreement.
4.Restrictions on Transfer.

withhold from the Recipient’s wages, or require the Recipient to remit to the Partnership, the Company or an Affiliate, any applicable required tax withholding.
6.Change in Capitalization.
(a)The number and kind of units issuable under this Agreement shall be proportionately adjusted for any non-reciprocal transaction between the Partnership and the holders of partnership interests of the Partnership that causes the per unit value of the Profits Interest Units subject to the Award to change, such as a unit dividend, unit split, spinoff or rights offering (each an “Equity Restructuring”). No fractional shares shall be issued in making such adjustment.
(b)In the event of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, extraordinary dividend, spin-off, sale of substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, other change in capital structure of the Partnership, tender offer for Profits Interest Units (“LTIP Units,” as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement), or a Change in Control, that in each case does not constitute an Equity Restructuring, the Committee shall take such action to make such adjustments with respect to the Profits Interest Units as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines in good faith is necessary or appropriate and as is permitted by the Plan, including, without limitation, adjusting the number and class of units subject to the Award, substituting other securities, property or cash to replace the Award, all as determined in good faith by the Committee to have equivalent value to the Award, removing restrictions on the Award, or terminating the Award in exchange for the cash value determined in good faith by the Committee. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section may provide, in the Committee’s discretion, for the elimination without payment of any fractional units that might otherwise be subject to the Award, but except as set forth in this Subsection and the Plan may not otherwise diminish the then value of the Award.
(c)All determinations and adjustments made by the Committee pursuant to this Section will be final and binding on the Recipient. Any action taken by the Committee need not treat all recipients of awards under the Plan equally.
(d)The existence of the Plan and the Profits Interest Unit Grant shall not affect the right or power of the Partnership to make or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Partnership, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to the Profits Interest Units or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Partnership, any sale or transfer of all or part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding.
