4. | The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 2.1(e) thereof in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof a new Section 2.1(e) as follows: |
“(e) Repayment of Founder Note. If, following the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Founder Note is repaid to the holder of such Founder Note on or prior to the maturity date thereof, Parent shall pay, promptly after such repayment is made, the amount of such Founder Note plus accrued interest so repaid (net of any Taxes paid or deemed paid by Parent, Buyer or the Company thereon or in respect thereof, calculated using the highest corporate Tax rate applicable in the jurisdiction of the holder of the Founder Note), to the Paying Agent for the benefit of the Contributing Securityholders. For purposes of calculating the amount of cash payable to each Contributing Securityholder pursuant to this Section 2.1(e), such amount of the Founder Note so repaid (net of any Taxes paid or deemed paid by Parent, Buyer or the Company thereon or in respect thereof, calculated using the highest corporate Tax rate applicable in the jurisdiction of the holder of the Founder Note) shall be distributed to each Contributing Securityholder in accordance with such Contributing Securityholder’s Pro Rata Share. If any amount of the Founder Note remains unpaid on the maturity date or, as promptly as reasonably practicable following receipt by Parent of the written request from the Representative that Parent assign and transfer the Founder Note to the Representative, Parent shall cause the holder of such Founder Note to assign and transfer the Founder Note to the Representative on behalf of the Contributing Securityholders.”

Following its receipt of the Founder Retained Amount, the Paying Agent shall (A) withhold and deduct any Taxes due under then applicable Law associated with the Founder Retained Amount or the Founder Note (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such Taxes that may become due in connection with the subsequent transfer of any portion of the Founder Retained Amount to Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx), which Taxes and the withholding rates related to such Taxes shall be subject to the written approval of Parent, (B) pay over such withheld and deducted Taxes to the appropriate Taxing Authority (to the extent not already so paid) and (C) release the

remaining balance thereof to the Contributing Securityholders, in accordance with each such Contributing Securityholder’s Pro Rata Share. The Representative and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx shall provide assistance to the Paying Agent as reasonably requested by the Paying Agent in order for the Paying Agent to determine the applicable amounts of Taxes to be withheld and deducted from the Founder Retained Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1(f), any Tax required to be paid in accordance with applicable Law associated with the imputed interest related to the Founder Note may also be deducted by Parent from the Founder Retained Amount prior to the transfer by Parent of the Founder Retained Amount to the Paying Agent. To the extent that the consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to any Person under Section 2.1(e) or this Section 2.1(f) is not reduced by such deductions or withholdings, such Person shall indemnify Parent and its affiliates (including the Company) for any Taxes imposed by any Taxing Authority.”
