The Board and officers may exercise any of the powers granted to it (or them) by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its (or their) agents, and no Representative or any of such Representative’s Affiliates and officers shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by the Board (so long as such agent was selected in good faith and with reasonable care). The Board and officers shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts, including financial advisors, and any act of or failure to act by the Board and officers in good faith reliance on such advice shall in no event subject the Board or any Representative thereof, or any officer, to liability to the Company or any Unitholder.

(ii) Whenever in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, the Board is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “sole discretion” or “discretion,” with “complete discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Board shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires. Whenever in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein the Board is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “good faith” or under another express standard, the Board shall act under such express standard and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, and, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as the Board acts in good faith, the resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Board shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or impose liability upon the Board, any Representative thereof or any of such Representative’s Affiliates.

(iii) Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the rights of any Unitholder as an employee or arising under any contract, agreement, plan or other arrangement with the Company or any Subsidiary or in capacity other than as a Unitholder.

(b) Indemnification.

(i) Right to Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions as provided in this Section 3.08(b), each Person (each an “Indemnified Person”) who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative (herein referred to as a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such Indemnified Person or another Person of which such Indemnified Person is the legal representative (x) is or was a Representative or officer of the Company, or (y) while a Representative or officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Board as a

manager, representative, officer, partner, director, principal, member, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent, or similar functionary of another Entity, shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with such Proceeding. Any indemnification under this Section 3.08(b) shall continue as to an Indemnified Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity that initially entitled such Indemnified Person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 3.08(b) shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 3.08(b) shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Proceedings arising prior to any such amendment, modification or repeal. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding in this Section 3.08(b), however, unless the Board otherwise consents, no Indemnified Person shall be indemnified for any expenses, liabilities and losses suffered that are attributable to such Indemnified Person’s or his, her or its Affiliates’ gross negligence, willful misconduct or knowing violation of law, or for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Indemnified Person or his, her or its Affiliates contained herein or in other agreements with the Company.

(ii) Advance Payment. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 3.08(b) shall include the right to be paid or reimbursed by the Company the reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnified Person of the type entitled to be indemnified under this Section 3.08(b) above in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding; provided, however, that the payment of such reasonable expenses in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding may be conditioned, in the sole discretion of the Board, upon delivery to the Company of a written affirmation by such Indemnified Person of his, her or its good faith belief that he, she or it has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under this Section 3.08(b) together with a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately and finally be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 3.08(b) or otherwise; and provided, further, that in the case of any Proceeding between the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Person claiming to be an Indemnified Person, on the other hand, the Company and its Affiliates shall have no obligation, and such other Person shall have no right, to advancement of any payments or reimbursements to such Person prior to final disposition of a Proceeding, except if and to the extent the Board, in its sole discretion, may otherwise determine.

(iii) Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company, by adoption of a resolution of the Board, may indemnify and advance expenses to an employee or agent of the Company to the same extent and subject to the same conditions under which it is obligated to indemnify and advance expenses to Indemnified Persons under this Section 3.08(b); and the Company may, by adoption of a resolution of the Board, indemnify and advance expenses to Persons who are not or were not a Representative, Unitholder, employee or agent of the Company but who are or were serving at the request of the Company as a manager, representative, officer, director, principal, member, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another Entity against any liability asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in such a capacity or arising out of his, her or its status as such a Person to the same extent that it may indemnify and advance expenses to Indemnified Persons under this Section 3.08(b).

(iv) Appearance as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.08(b), the Company may pay or reimburse, in the sole discretion of the Board, expenses incurred by any Indemnified Person in connection with his or her appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding at a time when such Indemnified Person is not a named defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

(v) Nonexclusivity of Rights. The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Section 3.08(b) shall not be exclusive of any other right that an Indemnified Person or other Person indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.08(b) or otherwise may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory), provision of the Certificate, this Agreement or approval of the Board or otherwise.

(vi) Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Indemnified Person or other Person indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.08(b), or otherwise against any expense, liability or loss under this Section 3.08(b), whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Indemnified Person or other Person against such expense, liability or loss under the provisions of this Section 3.08(b) or otherwise.

(vii) Savings Clause. If this Section 3.08(b) or any portion of this Section 3.08(b) shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person or other Person indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.08(b) or otherwise as to costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 3.08(b) that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(viii) Indemnification from Company Assets. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (including in this Section 3.08(b)), any indemnity by the Company relating to the matters covered in this Section 3.08(b) shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no Unitholder (unless such Unitholder otherwise agrees in writing or is found in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction to have personal liability on account thereof) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity of the Company.

(b) Unrelated Business Taxable Income. The Company shall use its best efforts to conduct its affairs in a manner that does not cause any Tax Exempt Investor (as defined below) to have any items of gross income that constitute “unrelated business taxable income” as that term is defined in section 512 of the Code (“UBTI”).

(ii) if the Company borrows money, the Company shall use its best efforts to use the proceeds of such borrowing in such a way that would not cause any Tax Exempt Investor or partner (or other equity owner) thereof to realize any UBTI attributable to “debt-financed property”, as that term is defined in section 514 of the Code, as a result of an action or omission that is within the control of the Company;

(iii) the Company shall not acquire an interest in another partnership, trust or non-corporate Entity unless (A) the Company determines, after consultation with counsel to the Company, that such proposed acquisition will not cause any Tax Exempt Investor or partner (or other equity owner) thereof to realize any UBTI, and (B) such Entity agrees to be bound contractually by restrictions substantially similar to those set forth in this Section 3.09(b); and

(iv) the Company shall not guarantee the obligations of any third Person unless the Company determines, after consultation with counsel to the Company, that such proposed guarantee will not cause any Tax Exempt Investor or partner (or other equity owner) thereof to realize any UBTI.

(c) Publicly-Traded Partnership. The Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that the Company is not classified or treated as a “publicly-traded partnership” taxable as a corporation within the meaning of section 7704 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder.

(d) The Company shall not (i) invest any assets of the Company in property that is set out in section 7 of the Special Economic Measures (Burma) Regulations under the Special Economic Measures Act (Canada) (the “Burma Sanction Regulations”), or (ii) transact in such a matter as to cause a Member that is subject to the Burma Sanction Regulations to breach section 5 of the Burma Sanction Regulations.

(A) If at any time any Unitholder (the “Seller”) in good faith desires (or is required) to Transfer in any manner any Units to a bona fide third party other than the Company (the “Buyer”), the Seller shall promptly deliver notice thereof in accordance with Section 4.04(b)(iii), and for a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof by the Company, the Preferred Unitholders and the Assignees of the Preferred Unitholders (if any) (such date of receipt, the “Notice Date”), the Company shall have the right, by delivering written notice to the Seller and the Preferred Unitholders on or before such fifteenth (15^th) day, to purchase all or any portion of the Units proposed to be Transferred by the Seller (the “Offered Units”) at the same price per Unit and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such sale or disposition; provided, however, that if such terms and conditions require the payment or performance of noncash consideration, the purchasing party(ies) pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) shall be entitled to satisfy such payment or performance terms by instead tendering payment of the cash equivalent of such noncash consideration.

(B) If the Company does not elect to purchase all of the Offered Units pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(i)(A), then for a period ending on the thirtieth (30^th) day after the Notice Date, each Preferred Unitholder shall have the right to require, as a condition to such Transfer, that the Seller sell to such Preferred Unitholder at the same price per Unit and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such Transfer up to that percentage (subject to a right of overallotment described below) of the Offered Units expressed by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Units and Preferred Units, on an as-converted-into-Common-Units basis, then held by the Preferred Unitholder (or such Assignee of the Preferred Unitholder), and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of all Common Units and Preferred Units, on an as-converted-into-Common-Units basis, then held by all the Preferred Unitholders (including Assignees of the Preferred Unitholders, if any). Within such period, each Preferred Unitholder may also exercise its right of overallotment such that if any Preferred Unitholder does not fully subscribe for the number or amount of Offered Units not purchased by the Company that it, she or he is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 4.04(b)(i)(B), then each Preferred Unitholder that elected to purchase Offered Units not purchased by the Company shall have the right to purchase that percentage of the remaining Offered Units not so subscribed for (for the purposes of this Section 4.04(b)(i)(B), the “Excess Offered Units”) determined by dividing (x) the total number of Units then owned by such fully participating Preferred Unitholders by (y) the total number of Units then owned by all fully participating Preferred Unitholders who elected to purchase Excess Offered Units. Any Lead Investor may assign to any of its respective Affiliates all or any portion of its rights pursuant to this Section 4.04(b)(i)(B).

(C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company and the Preferred Unitholders do not purchase all of the Offered Units, then the Seller may Transfer such portion of the Offered Units not purchased pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above to the Buyer, except as provided in Section 4.04(b)(ii); provided, however, that such purchase and sale shall be consummated on or prior to the date set forth in Section 4.04(b)(iii) or such Seller shall again be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.04(b)(i).

(ii) Right of Co-Sale. If at any time a Seller desires to Transfer in any manner any Units pursuant to the terms of a bona fide offer received from a Buyer, each Preferred Unitholder (or any Assignee of a Preferred Unitholder) shall have the right, in lieu of exercise of its right of first refusal set forth in Section 4.04(b)(i)(B) (but subject to the right of first refusal of the Company), to require, as a condition to such Transfer, that the Buyer purchase from such Preferred Unitholder (or such Assignee) at the same price per Unit and on the same terms and conditions as involved in such Transfer that percentage of the Offered Units (regardless of whether the Units consist of Preferred Units or Common Units issued upon conversion of such Preferred Units) expressed by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Preferred Units, on an as-converted-into-Common-Units basis, and Common Units then held by the Preferred Unitholder (or such Assignee), and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Preferred Units, on an as-converted-into-Common-Units basis, and Common Units then held collectively by the Seller and all the Preferred Unitholders exercising their rights under this Section 4.04(b)(ii).

(iii) Notice. In the event any Seller proposes to undertake a Transfer of Units, it shall give the Company, Preferred Unitholders, and Assignees of the Preferred Unitholders, if any, written notice of its intention, including a copy of any written offer made by any proposed purchaser of such Units, describing in reasonable detail the purchaser(s)’ price and general terms upon which the Seller proposes to Transfer Units and shall include the name and address of the proposed purchaser and acknowledge that the Seller has advised the proposed purchaser of the terms of this Section 4.04(b) and the proposed purchaser has agreed to purchase the Units in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof. The Preferred Unitholders (including Assignees of the Preferred Unitholders, if any) shall have (A) thirty (30) days (subject to the expiration of the fifteen (15)-day period pursuant to which the Company may exercise its right of first refusal in Section 4.04(b)(i) from the Notice Date (as provided in Section 4.04(b)(i)(A)) to exercise the right of first refusal under Section 4.04(b)(i)(B) (subject to the prior right of the Company), for the price and upon the general terms specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Seller and stating therein the quantity of Units to be purchased, or (B) if applicable, thirty (30) days from the Notice Date to exercise the right of co-sale under Section 4.04(b)(ii) hereof by giving written notice to the Seller and stating therein the quantity of Units to be included in the Transfer. The closing of the Transfer of Units covered by any such exercise of rights by the Preferred Unitholders pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(i) or 4.04(b)(ii) shall occur on the date, if any, set forth in the Seller’s notice pursuant to this Section 4.04(b)(iii) or on such other date as the parties may agree, provided that if no date is so specified, the closing shall occur on the date thirty (30) days after the date of the Seller’s notice pursuant to this Section 4.04(b)(iii), or on such other date as the parties may agree.

If any Holder does not fully subscribe for the number or amount of New Securities that it, she or he is entitled to purchase pursuant to subsection (b) above, then each Holder that elected to purchase all New Securities it,

she or he was entitled to purchase shall have the right to purchase that percentage of the remaining New Securities not so subscribed for (for the purposes of this Section 4.09(c), the “Excess New Securities”) determined by dividing (x) the total number of Units then owned by such fully participating Holder by (y) the total number of Units then owned by all fully participating Holders having preemptive rights under this Section 4.09 who elected to purchase Excess New Securities.

(d) The Company shall have ninety (90) days after the forty-five (45)-day period described in Section 4.09(b) to sell all such New Securities for which the Holders’ preemptive rights hereunder were not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s notice.

(iv) in the event that the Unitholders are required to make any representations or indemnities in connection with the Approved Sale (other than representations and indemnities concerning each Unitholder’s valid ownership of its Units of the Company, free of liens and encumbrances, and each Unitholder’s authority, power and right to enter into and consummate such Approved Sale), then no Unitholder shall be liable for more than the total purchase price received by such Unitholder in connection with such Approved Sale.

4.11 Conversion Rights.

(a) Conversion. Each Preferred Unit shall be convertible at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the issuance of such Preferred Unit, into fully paid and nonassessable Common Units. The number of Common Units into which each Preferred Unit may be converted shall be determined pursuant to this Section 4.11 and Section 4.12 below.

(b) Conversion Price. The number of Common Units into which each Class A Unit may be converted shall be determined by dividing $1.00, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any Unit Distribution, Unit split, combination, reclassification or other similar recapitalization affecting such Units (the “Class A Original Price”), by the conversion price (the “Class A Conversion Price”) (determined as hereinafter provided) in effect at the time of the conversion. The Conversion Price on the Original Issue Date (as defined below) with respect to each Class A Unit shall be equal to the Class A Original Price. The “Original Issue Date” shall mean the date on which a Class A Unit, Class B Unit or

Class C Units, as applicable, was first issued and, with respect to the Preferred Units issued by reason of the Cempra Merger, shall mean the Cempra Merger Effective Date. The number of Common Units into which each Class B Unit may be converted shall be determined by dividing $1.30, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any Unit Distribution, Unit split, combination, reclassification or other similar recapitalization affecting such Units (the “Class B Original Price”), by the conversion price (the “Class B Conversion Price”) in effect at the time of the conversion. The Class B Conversion Price on the Original Issue Date with respect to each Class B Unit shall be equal to the Class B Original Price. The Class B Conversion Price on the Effective Date with respect to each Class B Unit shall be equal to $1.2150, and assuming no other adjustments to the Class B Conversion Price are required pursuant to Section 4.11 and 4.12 prior to the Second Tranche Closing Price, the Class B Conversion Price upon the full Second Closing Tranche shall be $1.1835. The number of Common Units into which each Class C Unit may be converted shall be determined by dividing $1.07857, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any Unit Distribution, Unit split, combination, reclassification or other similar recapitalization affecting such Units (the “Class C Original Price”), by the conversion price (the “Class C Conversion Price”) (determined as hereinafter provided) in effect at the time of the conversion. The Conversion Price on the Original Issue Date with respect to each Class C Unit shall be equal to the Class C Original Price.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The holder of Preferred Units may exercise the conversion rights as to such Units or any part thereof by delivering to the Company during regular business hours, at the office of any transfer agent of the Company for the Preferred Units, or at the principal office of the Company, or at such other place as may be designated by the Company, the certificate or certificates for the Preferred Units to be converted, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer (if required by the Company), accompanied by written notice stating that the holder elects to convert all or a number of such Preferred Units represented by the certificate or certificates. Such notice shall also state such holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for Common Units to be issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery is made, or as otherwise specified in such notice consistent with this Section 4.11(c), and such date is referred to herein as the “Conversion Date”. As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Company shall issue and deliver to such holder, at such office or other place designated by the Company, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Common Units to which such holder is entitled and a check for cash with respect to any fractional interest in a Common Unit as provided in Section 4.11(d) below. The holder shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of Common Units on the applicable Conversion Date. Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of Preferred Units represented by a certificate surrendered for conversion, the Company shall issue and deliver to the holder of the certificate so surrendered for conversion, at the expense of the Company, a new certificate covering the number of Preferred Units representing the unconverted portion of the certificate so surrendered.

(d) Fractional Units. No fractional Common Units or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of Preferred Units. If more than one (1) Preferred Unit shall be surrendered for conversion at any one (1) time by the same holder, the number of full Common Units issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Preferred Units so surrendered. Instead of any

fractional Common Units that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Preferred Units, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest equal to the fair market value of such fractional interest as determined in good faith by the Board.

(e) Payment of Certain Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other taxes (but not any income, gift, estate or similar taxes imposed on the Unitholder) that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of Common Units on conversion of Preferred Units pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Common Units in a name other than that in which the Preferred Units so converted was registered.

(f) Reservation of Units Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued Common Units, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Preferred Units, the full number of Common Units deliverable upon the conversion of all Preferred Units, from time to time outstanding, and the payment of any Unpaid Yield in Common Units. All Common Units that are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly authorized, issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges and free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of other persons. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued Common Units shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then-outstanding Preferred Units and the payment of any Unpaid Yield in Common Units, the Company shall take such limited liability company action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Common Units to such number of Common Units as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite Unitholder approval of any necessary amendment to this Agreement, provided, that the holders of Preferred Units shall vote such Units in favor of any such action that requires a vote of Unitholders.

(g) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. If the Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Preferred Units shall be changed into the same or a different number of Units of any Class or Classes, whether by capital reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of Units or Unit Distribution provided for in Section 4.12(a)), then and in each such event the holder of each Preferred Unit shall have the right thereafter to convert such Unit (in lieu of the Common Units which the holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive) into the kind and amount of Units and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of Common Units into which such Preferred Units might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, or change.

(h) Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Entity or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Entity (other than a consolidation, merger or sale treated as a Company Sale), each Preferred Unit shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property that a holder of the number of Common Units deliverable upon conversion of Preferred Units would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale; and in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 4.12 with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of Preferred Units, to the end that the provisions set forth in Sections 4.11 and 4.12 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of Preferred Units.

(i) Adjustments for Issuances of Other Securities. In the event the Company makes, or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Units entitled to receive, any

Distribution (excluding repurchases of securities by the Company not made on a pro rata basis) payable in property or in securities of the Company other than Common Units, and other than as otherwise adjusted for in this Section 4.11 or as provided in Section 7.02 in connection with Distributions of Yield on the Preferred Units, then and in each such event, the holders of the Preferred Units shall receive, at the time of such Distribution, the amount of property or the number of securities of the Company that they would have received had their Preferred Units been converted into Common Units on the date of such event on the relevant record date with respect thereto.

(j) Listing of Units Issuable Upon Conversion. If any Common Units to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of Preferred Units (and the payment of Unpaid Yield in Common Units, if any) require registration or listing with, or approval of, any Governmental Entity, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation or otherwise, before such Units may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Company will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.

(k) Valid Issuance. All Common Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Units and the payment of Unpaid Yield in Common Units, if any, will upon issuance by the Company be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

(l) No Dilution or Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of this Agreement or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 4.12 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the Preferred Units against impairment.

4.12 Adjustment of Conversion Price.

The applicable Conversion Price from time to time in effect shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a) Unit Splits, Distributions and Combinations. In case the Company shall at any time after the date of the Original Issue Date with respect to a Preferred Unit subdivide the outstanding Common Units by Unit split, Unit Distribution, recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise or shall issue a Distribution in Common Units on its outstanding Common Units without a corresponding Distribution on the Preferred Units, the applicable Conversion Price of the Preferred Units in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or the issuance of such Distribution shall be proportionately decreased, and in case the Company shall at any time combine or consolidate (by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise) the outstanding Common Units into a lesser number of Common Units, the applicable Conversion Price of the Preferred Units in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, Distribution or combination, as the case may be.

(b) Noncash Distributions, Unit Purchase Rights, Capital Reorganizations and Dissolutions. In case:

(i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Units for the purpose of entitling them to receive a Distribution, payable otherwise than in cash, property, Units or other securities; or

(ii) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Units for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe for or purchase any Units of any Class or to receive any other rights; or

(iii) of any capital reorganization of the Company, reclassification of the Units of the Company (other than a subdivision or combination of its outstanding Common Units), consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Entity that is not a Company Sale or Dissolution Event or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Entity that is not a Company Sale or Dissolution Event;

then, and in any such case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to any transfer agent for the Preferred Units and to the holders of record of the outstanding Preferred Units, at least twenty (20) days prior to the date hereinafter specified, a notice stating the date on which (A) a record is to be taken for the purpose of such Distribution or rights, or (B) such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which holders of Common Units of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Units for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

(c) Issuances at Less Than the Conversion Price. If, at any time after the respective Original Issue Date, the Company shall issue or sell:

(i) any Common Units for no consideration or a consideration per Unit less than any Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale; or

(ii) any Unit Purchase Rights for no consideration where the consideration per Unit for which Common Units may at any time thereafter be issuable upon exercise thereof (or, in the case of Unit Purchase Rights exercisable for the purchase of Convertible Securities, upon the subsequent conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities) shall be less than any Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the issue or sale of such Unit Purchase Rights; or

(iii) any Convertible Securities for no consideration where the consideration per Unit for which Common Units may at any time thereafter be issuable pursuant to the terms of such Convertible Securities shall be less than any Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities,

other than an issuance of Common Units pursuant to Sections 4.12(a) or 4.12(f) hereof (any such issuance shall be referred to hereinafter as a “Dilutive Issuance”), then forthwith upon such issue or sale, such respective Conversion Price shall be reduced concurrently with such issue in order to increase the number of Common Units into which the applicable Class of Preferred Units is convertible to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by the following formula:


CP¹ = CP multiplied by		N + C
		N + AS



where:


CP¹	=	the applicable Conversion Price as so adjusted;

CP	=	the former, applicable Conversion Price immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance;


N		= the number of Common Units outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (or deemed issuance) assuming exercise or conversion of all outstanding securities exercisable for or convertible into Common Units;

C		= the number of Common Units that the aggregate consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company for the total number of additional securities so issued or deemed to be issued would purchase if the purchase price per unit were equal to the CP; and

AS		= the number of Common Units so issued or deemed to be issued in such Dilutive Issuance.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Conversion Price shall at such time be reduced if such reduction would be an amount less than $.01, but any such amount shall be carried forward, and deduction with respect thereto made at the earlier of (i) the time of and together with any subsequent reduction that, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $.01 or more and (ii) the conversion of any such Preferred Units.

(d) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, the following provisions will be applicable:

(i) “Convertible Securities” shall mean evidences of indebtedness, Units (including the Preferred Units) or other securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, with or without payment of additional consideration, Common Units.

(ii) “Unit Purchase Rights” shall mean any warrants, options or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any Common Units or any Convertible Securities.

(iii) Convertible Securities and Unit Purchase Rights shall be deemed outstanding and issued or sold at the time of such issue or sale.

(e) Determination of Consideration. The “consideration actually received” by the Company for the issuance, sale, grant or assumption of Common Units, Unit Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, irrespective of the accounting treatment of such consideration, shall be valued as follows:

(i) in the case of cash, the net amount received by the Company not including any accrued interest or dividends and after deducting any expenses paid or incurred and any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale;

(ii) in the case of consideration other than cash, the fair market value of such consideration, which shall include the purchase price paid for any Convertible Securities being converted or exchanged, as determined by the Board in good faith, not including any accrued interest or dividends;

(iii) in the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any Class of Units entitled to receive any such Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights, then the maximum number (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained therein designed to protect against dilution) of

Common Units issuable upon the exercise of such Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights or, in the case of Unit Purchase Rights for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Unit Purchase Rights and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be additional Common Units issued as of the time of the issuance of the Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date; provided, however, that additional Common Units shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per Unit (determined pursuant to Section 4.12(e)(iii) hereof) of such additional Common Units would be less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, or such record date, as the case may be;

(iv) in the event additional Common Units are issued (including Units deemed issued pursuant to Section 4.12(e)(iii)) together with other Units or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in Sections 4.12(e)(i) and (ii) above, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board; and

(v) the consideration per Unit received by the Company for additional Common Units deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 4.12(e)(iii), relating to Convertible Securities and Unit Purchase Rights, shall equal the quotient determined by dividing:

the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto) payable to the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or Unit Purchase Rights, or in the case of Unit Purchase Rights for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Unit Purchase Rights for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by the maximum number of Common Units (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto) issuable upon the exercise of such Unit Purchase Rights or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

In the event of any change in (i) the consideration, if any, payable upon exercise of any Unit Purchase Rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or (ii) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Units, the Conversion Price as computed upon the original issue thereof shall forthwith be readjusted to the Conversion Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Unit Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities provided for such changed purchase price, consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. On the expiration of any Unit Purchase Rights not exercised or of any right to convert or exchange under any Convertible Securities not exercised, the Conversion Price then in effect shall forthwith be increased to the Conversion Price that would have been in effect at the time of the issuance of such Unit Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities had such Unit Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities never been issued. No readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this paragraph shall (x) increase the Conversion Price by an amount in excess of the adjustment originally made to the Conversion Price in respect of the issue, sale or grant of the applicable Unit Purchase Rights or Convertible Securities, or (y) require any adjustment to the amount paid or number of Common Units received by any holder of Preferred Units upon any conversion of any Preferred Unit prior to the date upon which such readjustment to the Conversion Price shall occur.

(f) Exclusions for Adjustment for Issuances at Less Than the Conversion Price. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment of any Conversion Price in the case of: (i) Units, in the aggregate not to exceed one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding Common Units at the time of issuance on an as-converted basis, issued to strategic partners of the Company or its Subsidiaries such as a clinical research organizations,

licensors of technology to the Company or its Subsidiaries, or financial lending institutions pursuant to equipment financing arrangements; provided that such issuance has been approved by the Board, (ii) the 1,193,638 Common Units previously issued to Optimer pursuant to section 6.1 of the Optimer Agreement, (iii) the issuance of Common Units upon conversion of the Preferred Units, (iv) except for the adjustment contemplated by Section 4.11(b) with respect to the Class B Units, the issuance of any Class C Units under the Purchase Agreement, (v) up to 5,139,049 (6,834,049 after the Second Tranche Closing) Common Units (as adjusted for any splits, Unit Distributions, combination or other reclassification) and options exercisable for such Common Units, issued to employees, officers, consultants or Representatives of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to any incentive agreement or arrangement approved by the Board or (vi) the issuance or sale of Units or options to purchase such Units to the extent (A) the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the then-outstanding Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class and the (B) Super Majority Class C Investors waive the right to an adjustment pursuant to Section 4.12(c). The issuances or sales described in this Section 4.12(f) shall be ignored for purposes of calculating any adjustment to any Conversion Price.

(g) Certificate of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of any Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 4.12, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms thereof, and prepare and furnish to each holder of Preferred Units affected thereby a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written notice at any time of any holder of Preferred Units furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (iii) the number of Common Units and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the conversion of such holder’s Preferred Units.

4.13 Redemption.

(a) To the extent the Class C Units have not been previously redeemed or converted, the Super Majority Class C Investors (collectively, the “Class C Electing Holders”) may require the Company, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, to redeem, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.13, all but not less than all of the Class C Units, beginning on the date five (5) years after May 13, 2009, upon the Company’s receiving written notice from the Class C Electing Holders requesting such redemption in accordance with this Section 4.13 (the “Class C Redemption Election”). The “Redemption Date” shall be ninety (90) days following the date of the Class C Redemption Election. The Company shall redeem each Class C Unit by paying in cash an amount equal to the greater of (x) the Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield with respect to such Class C Unit from the date of issuance thereof or (y) the amount that would have been distributable pursuant to Section 7.02(a) if there has been a Company Sale at the then-current fair market value of the Company as determined in accordance with ARTICLE XIII (the total amount of such payment is hereinafter referred to as the “Class C Redemption Price” and, together with the Class A Redemption Price and the Class B Redemption Price, the “Redemption Price”), from any source of funds legally available therefor paid in accordance with Section 4.13(b) below. If, and only to the extent, the Class C Electing Holders elect to redeem the Class C Units, and provided the Class A Units and Class B Units have not been previously redeemed or converted, the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the Class A Units and Class B Units, voting together as a single Class, may require the Company, to the extent it may lawfully do so, to redeem, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.13, all but not less than all of the Class A Units and Class B Units by paying in cash an amount equal to the Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield with respect to such Class A Unit (the total amount of such payment is hereinafter referred to as the “Class A Redemption Price”), from any source of funds legally available therefor paid in accordance with Section 4.13(b) below. The Company shall redeem each Class B Unit by paying in cash in amount equal to the Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield with respect to such Class B Unit (the total

amount of such payment is hereinafter referred to as the “Class B Redemption Price”), from any source of funds legally available therefor paid in accordance with Section 4.13(b) below. Subject to Section 4.13(b), if no funds or insufficient funds are legally available at the time of any Redemption Date to redeem all of the Preferred Units then due to be redeemed, then the Company shall redeem Preferred Units from holders thereof pro rata based upon the aggregate Redemption Price of the Preferred Units to be redeemed, and any such unredeemed Preferred Units shall be carried forward and redeemed to the full extent out of legally available funds of the Company at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall at all times from and after the Redemption Date use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause there to be legally available funds for such redemption. Only those Class C Units that have not been redeemed shall continue to be entitled to the continued accrual of Yield, and only those Preferred Units that have not been redeemed shall continue to be entitled to conversion and other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such Preferred Units until such Preferred Units have been redeemed and the Redemption Price has been paid in full. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of Preferred Units, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Preferred Units that the Company has become obligated to redeem on the Redemption Date but that it has not redeemed. Any Preferred Units redeemed pursuant to this Section 4.13 will be cancelled and will not under any circumstance be reissued, sold or transferred, and the Company may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of Preferred Units accordingly.

(b) At least thirty (30) days prior to the occurrence of a Redemption Date, written notice shall be mailed, postage prepaid, by the Company to each holder of record (at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given) of the Preferred Units, at his, her or its post office address last shown on the records of the Company, specifying the Redemption Date, the applicable Redemption Price, the place at which payment may be obtained and the date on which such holder’s conversion rights (as described in Section 4.11 hereof) as to such Preferred Units terminate and calling upon such holder to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, his, her or its certificate or certificates representing the Preferred Units to be redeemed (the “Redemption Notice”). On the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price of such Units shall be payable to the order of the Person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates (if any, or the Company’s Unitholder records in the absence of certification) as the owner thereof, and upon redemption any surrendered certificates shall be cancelled. Payment of Unpaid Yield shall be in cash. From and after such Redemption Date, unless there shall have been a default in payment of the Redemption Price, all Yield on the Class C Preferred Units designated for redemption in the Redemption Notice shall cease to accrue, all rights of the holders of such Preferred Units as holders of the Preferred Units of the Company (except the right to receive the Redemption Price upon surrender of their certificate or certificates) shall cease with respect to such Preferred Units, and such Preferred Units shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of the Company or be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.

(c) At any time that there is a material breach or material default by the Company of any covenant or agreement set forth in Section 3.06, and such breach or default is not cured within thirty (30) days following notice of such breach or default by the Majority Class C Investors, then, in addition to being entitled to exercise any and all remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise, upon written demand to the Company by the Majority Class C Investors specifying a date for redemption not fewer than thirty (30) days from the date of such notice, the holders of Class C Units may require the Company to redeem all outstanding Class C Units at a Redemption Price determined as of the date the Company redeems such Class C Units and otherwise pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.13.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.13, no payments for the redemption of any Class A Units or Class B Units may be made or set aside, unless and until the

entire Class C Redemption Price has been paid to the holders of Class C Units with respect to all outstanding Class C Units for redemption pursuant to Section 4.13.

4.14 Mandatory Conversion.

(a) Each Preferred Unit shall automatically be converted into Common Units at the then-applicable Conversion Price upon the occurrence of a Public Offering where the Company receives proceeds of greater than $40,000,000 (net of underwriters discounts and commissions), and the price per Unit to the public is not less than $3.2358, subject to adjustment in the event of any Unit dividends, Unit splits, Unit combinations, reclassifications or the like (a “Qualified Public Offering”). In addition, each Preferred Unit shall automatically be converted into Common Units at the then applicable Conversion Price upon the affirmative vote or written consent of (i) the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the then-outstanding Preferred Units, voting as a single Class and (ii) the Super Majority Class C Investors. All holders of record of Preferred Units will be given at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the date fixed for mandatory conversion of the Preferred Units and the event causing the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Units into Common Units. Such notice shall be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of Preferred Units at such holder’s address as shown in the records of the Company. On or before the date so fixed for conversion, each holder of Preferred Units shall surrender the certificate or certificates for all such Preferred Units to the Company at the place designated in such notice and shall thereafter receive certificates for the number of Common Units to which such holder is entitled. The mechanics for conversion and other provisions relating to conversion of Preferred Units into Common Units set forth elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply to the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Units. Upon any conversion pursuant to this Section 4.14, any Unpaid Yield shall be paid in cash to Preferred Unitholders in full on the date of conversion; provided that, upon any conversion related to a Public Offering, any Unpaid Yield, at the election of (i) the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the then-outstanding Preferred Units, voting as a single Class and (ii) the Majority Class C Investors shall instead of being paid in cash shall be converted into Common Units in accordance with Section 4.11(b). Any such election for the Unpaid Yield to be converted into Common Units must be made prior to closing of the Public Offering.

(b) If any Purchaser (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) fails to purchase from the Company such Purchaser’s applicable number of Second Tranche Units (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) that it is required to purchase at the Second Tranche Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (any such Purchaser, referred to herein as a “Breaching Purchaser”), then, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, upon the consummation of the Second Tranche Closing at which such Purchaser became a Breaching Purchaser, all of such Breaching Purchaser’s Class C Units shall automatically convert as of the Second Tranche Closing into Common Units without any further action by such Breaching Purchaser or the Company and whether or not the certificate or certificates representing such Units are surrendered to the Company. The mechanics for conversion and other provisions relating to conversion of Preferred Units into Common Units set forth elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply to the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Units under this Section 4.14(b). Upon any conversion pursuant to this Section 4.14(b), any Unpaid Yield related to the Class C Units shall be forfeited in full and no payment shall be made on account thereof.

4.15 Voluntary Withdrawal of a Unitholder.

A Unitholder shall not have the right or power to effect a voluntary withdrawal or resignation from the Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company pursuant to ARTICLE IX hereof, except as otherwise expressly permitted or contemplated by this Agreement. Any such unpermitted attempted withdrawal or resignation shall be null and void, and, notwithstanding any provision in the Act, the Company shall not be required to make any payment or Distribution in connection with the attempted

withdrawal. This Section 4.15 expressly overrides any rights to Distributions or other payments to which a Unitholder or its Assignee might otherwise be entitled under the default provisions of section 18-604 of the Act or any other provisions of the Act.

4.16 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Subject to such limitations as are set forth in this Section 4.16, upon the occurrence of a merger or consolidation of the Company pursuant to section 18-209 of the Act which is not an Approved Sale pursuant to Section 4.10(a) hereof (a “Qualified Merger”) and therefore the rights and obligation of Section 4.10 are not applicable, a holder of any Class of Units shall be entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to this Section 4.16 (the “Appraisal Rights”), provided that such Unitholder: (i) continuously holds such Units through the effective date of the Qualified Merger; (ii) has otherwise complied with the process set forth herein; and (iii) has neither voted for nor consented to the Qualified Merger. Pursuant to section 18-210 of the Act, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine any matters relating to the Appraisal Rights as set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the value of any Unit as determined upon exercise of Appraisal Rights shall be determined pursuant to the process set forth in this Section 4.16 and shall not be determined by the provisions contained in ARTICLE XIII of this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Appraisal Rights granted under this Section 4.16 shall not be available:

(i) upon the occurrence of a merger or consolidation, which results in the Company being the surviving entity and does not require a vote of the Unitholders of the Company because: (A) the agreement of merger does not amend in any way this Agreement, (B) each Unit of the Company prior to the effective date of such merger or consolidation is to be an identical unit of ownership in the surviving entity after such merger or consolidation, and (C) either no Units of the surviving entity and no securities convertible into Units are to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger, or the authorized and unissued Units of the surviving entity to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger plus those initially issuable upon conversion of any other securities convertible into Units to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Units of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such merger;

(ii) any transaction involving the Company that is analogous to the transactions covered by section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which applies to Delaware corporations and provides that, subject to the restrictions contained therein, no vote of a corporation’s stockholders is necessary for the authorization of a merger of a corporation with or into a single direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of such corporation (as a matter of clarification and not limitation, for purposes of this Section 4.16(b) references to corporations contained in section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law shall apply equally to other business entities, including but not limited to limited liability companies); or

(iii) for any class of Units that are (A) listed on a national securities exchange or (B) held of record by more than 2,000 Unit holders.

(i) Provided that a Qualified Merger is submitted for approval at a meeting of the Unitholders, the Company must notify each Unitholder (who was a holder of Units as of the record date) not less than twenty (20) days prior to the meeting, of the availability of Appraisal Rights and

provide all such Unitholders with a copy of this Section 4.16 of the Agreement. Each Unitholder electing to demand Appraisal Rights under this Section 4.16 must deliver to the Company a written demand, which reasonably identifies the Unitholder and indicates the Unitholder’s intention to demand Appraisal Rights (“Demand for Appraisal”) prior to the vote by the Unitholders on the Qualified Merger. A proxy or vote against the Qualified Merger shall not constitute a Demand for Appraisal. The entity surviving or resulting from the Qualified Merger (the “Surviving Appraisal Entity”) shall within ten (10) days after the effective date of such Qualified Merger, notify each Unitholder who has submitted a Demand for Appraisal, who has not voted in favor of or consented to the Qualified Merger and who has otherwise complied with all terms and conditions of this Section 4.16 (each a “Dissenting Unitholder” and collectively the “Dissenting Unitholders”) that the Qualified Merger has become effective.

(ii) If the Qualified Merger is approved by written consent without a meeting of the Unitholders, the Surviving Appraisal Entity shall, within ten (10) days of the effective date of such Qualified Merger, notify each of the Unitholders entitled to Appraisal Rights of the availability of Appraisal Rights and provide all such Unitholders with a copy of this Section 4.16 of the Agreement (“First Appraisal Notice”). Any Unitholder providing their written consent to the Qualified Merger shall not be entitled to Appraisal Rights. The First Appraisal Notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, shall, also notify such Unitholders of the effective date of the Qualified Merger. Any Unitholder entitled to Appraisal Rights may, within twenty (20) days after the date of mailing of the First Appraisal Notice, send a Demand for Appraisal to the Surviving Appraisal Entity. If the First Appraisal Notice did not notify Unitholders of the effective date of the Qualified Merger, either (A) the Company shall send a Second Appraisal Notice before the effective date of the Qualified Merger notifying each of the Unitholders of any Class of Units that are entitled to Appraisal Rights or (B) the Surviving Appraisal Entity shall send such a Second Appraisal Notice to all such Unitholders on or within ten (10) days after such effective date (each a “Second Appraisal Notice”); provided, however, that if the Second Appraisal Notice is sent more than twenty (20) days following the sending of the First Appraisal Notice, the Second Appraisal Notice need only be sent to each Dissenting Unitholder. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary of the Company or the Surviving Appraisal Entity shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the Unitholders entitled to receive either the First Appraisal Notice or the Second Appraisal Notice, the Company may fix in advance a record date that shall be not more than ten (10) days prior to the date the applicable notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date of the Qualified Merger, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given.

(d) Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, the Surviving Appraisal Entity or any Dissenting Unitholder may commence an appraisal proceeding by filing a petition in the Chancery Court demanding a determination of the value of the Units of all Dissenting Unitholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within sixty (60) days after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, any Unitholder who has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party shall have the right to withdraw such Unitholder’s Demand for Appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the Qualified Merger. Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, any Unitholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections (a) and (c) of this Section 4.16, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the Surviving Appraisal Entity a statement setting forth the aggregate number of Dissenting Unitholders and aggregate number of Units held by the Dissenting Unitholders. Such written statement shall be mailed to the Unitholder within ten (10) days after such Unitholder’s written request for such a statement is received by the Surviving Appraisal Entity or within ten (10) days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for Appraisal Rights under subsection (c) of this Section 4.16, whichever is later. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Person who is the

beneficial owner of Units held either in a voting trust or by a nominee on behalf of such Person may, in such Person’s own name, file a petition or request from the Surviving Appraisal Entity to receive the statement described in this subsection.

(e) Upon the filing of any such petition by a Unitholder, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon the Surviving Appraisal Entity, which shall within twenty (20) days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Register in Chancery”) in which the petition was filed, a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all Dissenting Unitholders with whom agreements as to the value of their Units have not been reached by the Surviving Appraisal Entity (the “Dissenters List”). If the petition shall be filed by the Surviving Appraisal Entity, the petition shall be accompanied by the Dissenters List. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Chancery Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the Surviving Appraisal Entity and to the Unitholders shown on the Dissenters List at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by one (1) or more publications at least one (1) week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Chancery Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Chancery Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the Surviving Appraisal Entity.

(f) At the hearing on such petition, the Chancery Court shall determine the Unitholders who have complied with this Section 4.16 and who have become entitled to Appraisal Rights. The Chancery Court may require the Unitholders who have submitted a Demand for Appraisal and who hold certificates evidencing such ownership to submit their certificates of Units to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any Unitholder fails to comply with such direction, the Chancery Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such Unitholder.

(g) After the Chancery Court determines the Unitholders entitled to Appraisal Rights, the appraisal proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the Court of Chancery, including any rules specifically governing appraisal proceedings. Through such proceeding the Chancery Court shall determine the fair value of the Units exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Qualified Merger, together with interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Chancery Court shall take into account all relevant factors. Unless the Chancery Court in its discretion determines otherwise for good cause shown, interest from the effective date of the Qualified Merger through the date of payment of the judgment shall be compounded quarterly and shall accrue at five percent (5%) over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time during the period between the effective date of the Qualified Merger and the date of payment of the judgment. Upon application by the Surviving Appraisal Entity or by any Unitholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Chancery Court may, in its discretion, proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the Unitholders entitled to an appraisal. Any Unitholder whose name appears on the Dissenters List and who has submitted such Unitholder’s certificates of Units to the Register in Chancery, if such is required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that such Unitholder is not entitled to Appraisal Rights under this Section.

(h) The Chancery Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the Units, together with interest, if any, by the Surviving Appraisal Entity to the Unitholders entitled thereto. Payment shall be so made to each such Unitholder, in the case of holders of uncertificated Units forthwith, and the case of holders of Units represented by certificates upon the surrender to the Surviving Appraisal Entity of the certificates representing such Units. The Chancery Court’s decree may be enforced as other decrees in the Chancery Court may be enforced, whether the Surviving Appraisal Entity be an entity organized under the laws of Delaware or of any state.

(i) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Chancery Court and taxed upon the parties as the Chancery Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a Unitholder, the Chancery Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any Unitholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including reasonable attorney’s fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the Units entitled to an appraisal.

(j) From and after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, no Unitholder who has submitted a Demand for Appraisal shall be entitled to vote such Units for any purpose or to receive distributions on the Units (except distributions payable to Unitholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective date of the Qualified Merger); provided, however, that if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in subsection (d) of this Section 4.16, or if such Unitholder shall deliver to the Surviving Appraisal Entity a written withdrawal of its Demand for Appraisal and an acceptance of the Qualified Merger, either within sixty (60) days after the effective date of the Qualified Merger as provided in subsection (d) of this Section 4.16 or thereafter with the written approval of the Company or the Surviving Appraisal Entity, then the right of such Unitholder to an appraisal shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Chancery Court shall be dismissed as to any Unitholder without the approval of the Chancery Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Chancery Court deems just; provided, however, that this provision shall not affect the right of any Unitholder who has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party to withdraw such Unitholder’s Demand for Appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the Qualified Merger within sixty (60) days after the effective date of the Qualified Merger, as set forth in subsection (d) of this section.

(k) The shares or units of the Surviving Appraisal Entity to which the Units of the Dissenting Unitholders would have been converted had they assented to the Qualified Merger shall have the status of authorized and unissued Units of the Surviving Appraisal Entity.

4.17 Termination.

Sections 4.04, 4.05, 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, and 4.16 shall terminate on the closing of a Qualified Public Offering.

ARTICLE V

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

5.01 Capital Contributions.

(a) Upon consummation of the Cempra Merger, the Cempra Stockholders were deemed to make Capital Contributions to the Company (the “Merger Capital Contributions”) by reason of the Cempra Merger and the resultant exchange of their Cempra capital stock for Units in the Company. In exchange for the Merger Capital Contributions, the Company issued (i) Class A Units in the Company to the holders of “Series A Preferred Stock” (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Cempra in effect immediately before the Cempra Merger Effective Date) in Cempra on the basis of one (1) Class A Unit in the Company for each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock in Cempra, (ii) Class B Units in the Company to the holders of “Series B Preferred Stock” (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Cempra in effect immediately before the Cempra Merger Effective Date) in Cempra on the basis of one (1) Class B Unit in the Company for each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock in Cempra, and (iii) Common Units in the Company to the holders of “Common Stock” (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Cempra in effect immediately before the Cempra Merger Effective Date) in Cempra on the basis of one (1)

Common Unit in the Company for each outstanding share of Common Stock in Cempra. As of the Effective Time, the Class C Unitholders have made Capital Contributions to the Company, as set forth on Schedule 5.01.

(b) The agreed value of the Capital Contributions made and Units issued with respect to the Cempra Merger and the Class C Unitholders’ Capital Contributions are set forth on Schedule 5.01 attached hereto as of the Effective Time. Schedule 5.01 shall be amended and restated, or may be separately supplemented, from time to time after the Effective Time by the Company to reflect, as permitted by this Agreement (i) additional Capital Contributions made by Unitholders after the Effective Time and/or additional Units issued by the Company, (ii) transfers of Units permitted and recognized pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) any other changes to the capitalization of the Company made after the date of this Agreement.

5.02 Subsequent Capital Contributions.

Except as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, no Unitholder shall be obligated to contribute any money or other property to the Company other than the Capital Contributions required to be made by such Unitholder pursuant to Section 5.01.

5.03 Return of Capital Contributions.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Unitholder or any successor in interest is entitled to the return or repayment of all or any part of its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in respect of either such Unitholder’s Capital Account or Capital Contributions, and no specific time has been agreed upon with respect to any such repayment or return provided for in this Agreement. An unreturned Capital Contribution shall not be a liability of the Company or of any Unitholder. No Unitholder is required to contribute or to lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the Company to return any Unitholder’s Capital Contributions.

5.04 Advances by Members.

If the Company does not have sufficient cash to pay its obligations, any Member(s), with the written consent of the Board and the Majority Class C Investors, may advance all or part of the needed funds to or on behalf of the Company. An advance described in this Section 5.04 shall constitute a loan from the Member to the Company, shall bear interest at a rate equal to the prime rate of interest (as announced from time to time in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal) plus one percent (1%) per annum from the date of the advance until the date of payment, and shall not be a Capital Contribution.

5.05 Capital Accounts; Gross Asset Values.

(a) A Capital Account shall be established and maintained by the Company for each Unitholder, generally as set forth below and in accordance with section 704 of the Code and section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Board after consultation with the Company’s accountants. The Members agree that as of the Effective Time (x) the Unitholders holding Units outstanding immediately prior the Effective Time shall have a Capital Account balance with respect to such Units as provided pursuant to the Restated Agreement as of such time, and (y) the holders of Class C Units issued as of the Effective Time shall have a Capital Account balance with respect to such Class C Units equal to the Capital Contributions made with respect thereto as of the Effective Time. After the Effective Time, the Capital Accounts of the Unitholders shall be adjusted as set forth below in this Section 5.05(a).

(i) Each Unitholder’s Capital Account shall be credited with or increased by:

(A) the amount of money contributed by it to the Company, including any Company liabilities assumed by such Unitholder,

(B) the initial Gross Asset Value of property other than money contributed by it to the Company, net of any liabilities that are (1) assumed by the Company (to the extent that the Company’s assumption thereof is not otherwise debited under Section 5.05(a)(ii)(A) below) or (2) secured by such contributed property and subject to which the Company takes the contributed property, and

(C) allocations to it pursuant to ARTICLE VI of Company Profits and items in the nature of income or gain, including adjustments under section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) of the Regulations to reflect book values (rather than tax basis) of (1) property contributed to the Company (“Contributed Property”) and (2) property (“Revalued Property”) that has been revalued on the books of the Company pursuant to Section 5.05(b).

(ii) Each Unitholder’s Capital Account shall be debited or decreased by:

(A) the amount of any money distributed as a Distribution to it by the Company, including any liabilities of such Unitholder assumed by the Company,

(B) the Gross Asset Value of property other than money distributed as a Distribution to it by the Company, net of any liabilities that are (1) assumed by the Unitholder (to the extent that the Unitholder’s assumption thereof is not otherwise credited under Section 5.05(a)(i)(A) above) or (2) secured by such distributed property and subject to which the Unitholder takes the distributed property, and

(C) allocations to it pursuant to ARTICLE VI of Company Losses and items in the nature of expense, loss or deduction, including adjustments under section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) of the Regulations to reflect book values (rather than tax basis) of (1) Contributed Property and (2) Revalued Property.

(iii) Upon the transfer of all, or a part of, a Unitholder’s Interest, the Capital Account of the transferor that is attributable to the transferred Interest will carry over to the transferee Unitholder, giving effect to any and all charges, credits, or adjustments to the Capital Accounts of the Unitholders provided for in section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations, including any such charges, credits or adjustments resulting from any elections under section 754 of the Code.

(b) The “Gross Asset Value” of any Company asset shall be its adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes, except as follows:

(i) The initial Gross Asset Value of (A) the shares of Cempra stock held by the Company immediately after the Cempra Merger effective date shall equal, in the aggregate, the total amounts credited to all Unitholders’ Capital Accounts by reason of the Cempra Merger provided in the second sentence of Section 5.05(a) of the Restated Agreement (and such aggregate value shall be apportioned among the shares as determined by the Board with the advice of the Company’s tax and accounting advisors), and (B) any other asset contributed by a Unitholder to the Company shall be its gross fair market value, as determined by the contributing Unitholder and by the Board in its reasonable business judgment;

(ii) The Gross Asset Values of all Company assets shall be adjusted to equal their respective gross fair market values, as determined by the Board, as of the following times: (A) the acquisition of any additional Interest by any new or existing Unitholder in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution or the provision of services; (B) the Distribution by the Company to a retiring or continuing Unitholder of more than a de minimis amount of money or other Company property in exchange for the Company’s purchase or redemption of Units; and (C) a Liquidating Distribution (as defined below), whether or not it results in the termination of the Company for federal income tax purposes; provided, however, that (I) adjustments pursuant to clauses (A) and (B) shall be made by the Company only if the Board reasonably determines that such adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Unitholders, and (II) as provided in section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(l) of the Regulations, no adjustments shall be made pursuant to clause (C) in connection with a constructive termination of the Company under section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code;

(iii) The Gross Asset Values of any Company asset(s) distributed to any Unitholder shall be adjusted, immediately before the time of Distribution, to equal the gross fair market value (as determined by the Board) of such asset(s) on the date of the Distribution; and

(iv) If the Gross Asset Value of an asset has been determined or adjusted pursuant to Section 5.05(b)(i) or (ii), such Gross Asset Value shall thereafter be adjusted by the Depreciation taken into account with respect to the adjusted Gross Asset Value of such asset for purposes of computing Profits and Losses.

For the purposes of paragraph (ii) hereof, a “Liquidating Distribution” shall mean a Distribution either (I) in connection with a liquidation of the Company (which occurs upon the earlier of (A) the date upon which the Company is terminated under section 708(b)(1) of the Code (other than a constructive termination pursuant to Code section 708(b)(1)(B) or (B) the date upon which the Company ceases to be a going concern (even though it may continue in existence for the purpose of winding up its affairs, paying its debts, and distributing any remaining balance to the Unitholders)), or (II) upon the liquidation of a Unitholder’s Interest (which occurs upon the earlier of (A) the date of a liquidation of the Company or (B) the date upon which the Unitholder’s entire Interest is terminated by means of a Distribution or the final Distribution in a series of Distributions, pursuant to section 1.761-1(d) of the Regulations).

5.06 Negative Capital Accounts.

No Unitholder shall be required to pay to any other Unitholder or to the Company any deficit or negative balance which may exist from time to time in such Unitholder’s Capital Account (including upon and after dissolution of the Company or the liquidation of such Unitholder’s Interest, or any part thereof).

ARTICLE VI

ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES

6.01 Allocation of Profits and Losses.

After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.04, and except as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE VI, the Profits and Losses of the Company for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated among the Unitholders in such manner that, as of the end of such Fiscal Year or other period and after taking into account (x) the opening Capital Account balances of the Unitholders at the start of such Fiscal Year or other period and (y) any appropriate adjustments to each opening Capital Account balance to reflect Capital Contributions, Distributions and allocations of items of income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to Section 6.04 made during or with respect to such Fiscal Year or other period, the

respective Capital Accounts of the Unitholders shall be equal, to the greatest extent possible, to the respective net amounts that would be distributed to them under this Agreement, determined as if the Company were, as of the end of the Fiscal Year or other period (for this purpose, each Unitholder’s Capital Account shall be deemed to be increased by the sum of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 6.04(b) with respect to such Unitholder as of the end of such Fiscal Year or other period), to (i) liquidate the assets of the Company for an amount equal to the sum of the Gross Asset Values of all of the assets (net of any Depreciation with respect to each asset’s Gross Asset Value, but without any adjustment being deemed to be made to the Gross Asset Value of the Company’s assets in respect of the presumed liquidation thereof under this clause (i)), and (ii) distribute the proceeds of liquidation (net of any Company liabilities, which, in the case of each Nonrecourse Debt and Unitholder Nonrecourse Debt, shall be limited for these purposes to an amount not in excess of the Gross Asset Value of the Company assets securing the liability) pursuant to Section 9.02(c). Accordingly, any difference between the amounts described in clauses (x) and (y) and the amount described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be taken into account in allocating Profits and Losses, if any, for any Fiscal Year or other period.

6.02 Code Section 704(c) and Related Allocations.

(a) In accordance with section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Unitholders so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value at the time of contribution.

(b) In the event that the Gross Asset Value of any Company property has been determined in accordance with Section 5.05(b)(i) or revalued on the books of the Company and the Capital Accounts of the Unitholders adjusted under section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) of the Regulations, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such property shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its adjusted Gross Asset Value in the same manner as, but not necessarily under the same convention(s) or method(s) specifically used by the Company for its allocations actually made or to be made by the Company, under section 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder.

(c) Any elections or other decisions relating to allocations under this Section 6.02 shall be made by the Board in any manner that reasonably reflects the purposes and intentions of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.02 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Unitholder’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

6.03 Allocation of Certain Items.

(a) Items of Company income, expenses, etc. that serve to offset against one another in computing the net Profits or Losses for any taxable year or other period of the Company, shall, if and as may be necessary for determining the Unitholders’ respective shares of any items that must be separately stated or otherwise identified, be allocated in the same proportions as Profits or Losses for such taxable year or other period are allocated.

(b) Tax credits shall be allocated to and among the Unitholders (i) in accordance with applicable provisions therefor in the Regulations promulgated pursuant to Code section 704 or applicable state tax laws, rules, or regulations as appropriate, to the extent provided therein, and (ii) to the extent there is no such applicable guidance, (A) in the same proportions as the aggregate Company

income for the relevant period or time shall be allocated, and (B) in the absence of such income, to the Preferred Unitholders in proportion to the respective numbers of Common Units issuable upon conversion of their Preferred Units.

6.04 Special Allocation Provisions.

The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a) If there is a net decrease in the Company Minimum Gain and/or the Unitholder Minimum Gain during a Company taxable year, each Unitholder will be allocated, before any other allocation of Company items for such taxable year is made under section 704(b) of the Code, items of gain from the disposition of any property subject to Nonrecourse Debt or Unitholder Nonrecourse Debt and thereafter other items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) equal to the amount of such decrease, to the extent of such Unitholder’s share of such net decrease (computed for this purpose in the manner provided under sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations, after giving appropriate effect to the exceptions and waivers therein provided or authorized, including but not limited to the exceptions for certain conversions, refinancing and capital contributions) at the end of such year. This provision relating to minimum gain chargebacks is intended to comply with sections 1.704-1(b)(4)(iv) and 1.704-2 of the Regulations and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. “Nonrecourse deductions” and “partner nonrecourse deductions” within the meaning of Regulations sections 1.704-2(b)(1) and 1.704-2(i), respectively, shall be offset by “minimum gain chargebacks” within the meaning of Regulations sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(i)(2) and 1.704-2(i)(4), as applicable. The objective of the preceding sentence is to avoid the result illustrated in Example 1 of Regulations section 1.704-2(f)(7) and shall be interpreted and applied consistent with such intent.

(b) In the event a Unitholder has a deficit Capital Account balance at the end of any Fiscal Year (or other applicable period) that is in excess of (i) the amount, if any, such Unitholder, in the manner and to the extent provided in Regulations section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c), is unconditionally obligated to contribute to the Company pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or applicable law; and (ii) the amount such Unitholder is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations, such Unitholder shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.04(b) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Unitholder would have such an excess deficit Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE VI tentatively have been made as if this Section 6.04(b) and Section 6.04(c) were not in this Agreement. This Section 6.04(b) is intended to minimize the potential distortion to the economic arrangement of the Unitholders that might otherwise be caused by Section 6.04(c), while ensuring that this Agreement complies with the requirements of the alternate test for economic effect contained in section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Unitholder receives an adjustment, allocation or Distribution described in sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) of the Regulations that unexpectedly causes or increases a deficit in such Unitholder’s Adjusted Capital Account, such Unitholder shall be allocated items of income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit balance as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.04(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Unitholder would have a deficit Adjusted Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE VI were tentatively made as if this Section 6.04(c) were not in this Agreement. This provision is intended to be a

qualified income offset that complies with section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations, and it shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulation section.

(d) For purposes of this Section, the term “Company Minimum Gain” means the aggregate gains (of whatever character) of the Company, computed with respect to each Nonrecourse Debt of the Company, that would be realized by the Company upon disposition in taxable transactions of the Company properties subject to such debts in full satisfaction thereof, in accordance with the definition for “partnership minimum gain” set forth in sections 1.704-2(b)(2) and 1.704-2(d) of the Regulations. The term “Unitholder Minimum Gain” shall have the meaning set forth for the term “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” in section 1.704-2(i)(2) of the Regulations with respect to the Company’s Unitholder Nonrecourse Debts, and shall be computed and determined in accordance with section 1.704-2(i)(3) of the Regulations.

(e) For purposes of this Section, the term “Nonrecourse Debt” means a Company liability secured by Company property and with respect to which none of the Unitholders has any personal liability as determined under section 1.752-1(e) of the Regulations, and the term “Unitholder Nonrecourse Debt” means, in accordance with section 1.704-2(b)(4) of the Regulations, a Company liability that is nonrecourse for purposes of section 1.1001-2 of the Regulations and with respect to which a Unitholder or related party thereto bears the “economic risk of loss” (as defined in section 1.752-2 of the Regulations).

(f) Notwithstanding Section 6.01, no Losses of the Company shall be allocated to a Unitholder to the extent such an allocation of Losses would cause a Unitholder’s Adjusted Capital Account balance to be negative or increase a negative Adjusted Capital Account balance of a Unitholder. Losses that cannot be allocated under Section 6.01 because of this Section 6.04(f) shall be allocated to the remaining Unitholders of the Company having positive Adjusted Capital Accounts, in proportion to the positive balances in their Adjusted Capital Accounts.

(g) The allocations set forth above in Sections 6.04(a), (b), (c) and (f) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended, but only to the extent necessary, to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is intended that, to the extent possible, the application and effect of all Regulatory Allocations shall be minimized and offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 6.04(g). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Board shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction or items thereof in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Unitholder’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Unitholder would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section 6.01. In exercising its discretion under this Section 6.04(g), the Board shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 6.04(a) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made with respect to “nonrecourse deductions” and “partner nonrecourse deductions” within the meaning of Regulations sections 1.704-2(b)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(1) and (i)(2), respectively.

(h) Any elections or other decisions relating to allocations under this Section 6.04 shall be made by the Board in any manner that reasonably reflects the purposes and intentions of this Agreement.

6.05 Certain Allocations.

(a) The parties to this Agreement intend that the economic effect of this Agreement shall be as memorialized in the Distribution provisions set forth in ARTICLE VII hereof. If allocations otherwise provided in this ARTICLE VI or necessary to comply with the provisions of sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder (the “Section 704 Allocations”) interfere with the Distributions to the Unitholders that would have otherwise resulted absent such Section 704 Allocations, the Board is authorized and directed to make whatever adjustments to the allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or items thereof) under this ARTICLE VI that may be necessary in order (i) to comply with sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder to the greatest extent reasonably possible, but (ii) to result, in all events, in the Distributions being distributable to the Unitholders in accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE VII of this Agreement. In making any adjustment to allocations under this Section 6.05(a), the Board is authorized to act only upon the advice of competent tax counsel or accountants to the Company regarding sections 704(b) or 704(c) of the Code and the Regulations thereunder. Any allocation made pursuant to this Section 6.05(a) shall be deemed to be a complete substitute for any allocation otherwise provided for in this ARTICLE VI, and no amendment of this Agreement or approval of any Unitholder shall be required.

(b) Allocations made by the Board under Section 6.05(a) in reliance upon the advice of counsel or accountants to the Company shall be deemed to be made pursuant to the fiduciary obligation of the Board to the Company and the Unitholders, and no such allocation shall give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Unitholder.

6.06 Allocations on Varying and Transfers of Interests.

All Profits and Losses (and any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit specially allocated under this Agreement) shall be allocated to the Persons shown on the records of the Company to have been Unitholders as of the last calendar day of the period for which the allocation is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during any taxable year there is a change in any Unitholder’s Units or relative or proportionate Interest in the Company, the Unitholders agree that their allocable shares of the Profits and Losses (or items thereof) or separately stated items for the taxable year shall be determined using any method determined by the Board to be permissible under Code section 706 and the related Regulations to take account of the Unitholders’ varying Units or Interests during such period; provided, however, that the Unitholders’ distributive shares of the Company’s income, gain, loss, and deduction for the taxable year of the Company that includes the Effective Time shall be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books of the Company as of the close of business on the Effective Time and shall not be based upon a proration of such items for the entire taxable year.

6.07 Allocations in Determining Shares of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities.

The Unitholders’ respective shares of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company within the meaning of section 1.752-3(a)(3) of the Regulations shall be in such proportions as the Board, after consultation with the Company’s tax advisors, determines is appropriate and consistent with the Regulations for the Fiscal Year or other relevant period in issue.

6.08 Indemnification, Reimbursement and Set-off for Payment on Behalf of a Unitholder.

Except as otherwise provided herein, if the Company is obligated to pay any amount to a Governmental Entity (or otherwise makes a payment to a Governmental Entity) that is specifically attributable to a Unitholder or a Unitholder’s status as the holder of an Interest (including federal or state withholding taxes, state personal property taxes, and state unincorporated business taxes), then such Person shall

indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including interest, penalties and related expenses). The Board may offset Distributions and other payments to which a Person is entitled under this Agreement or otherwise against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 6.08. A Unitholder’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 6.08 shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 6.08, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Unitholder under this Section 6.08, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification payment with interest calculated at a rate equal to fifteen percent (15%) per annum (or such lower rate, if any, as may be permitted so as not to exceed the highest rate per annum permitted by law).

ARTICLE VII

DISTRIBUTIONS AND WITHDRAWALS

7.01 Distributions.

(a) Board Determination. Subject to any restrictions or limitations mandatorily imposed on the Company under section 18-607 of the Act and except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01(b), the Board may, in its sole discretion, cause the Company to make Distributions, at any time and from time to time, to and among the Unitholders as more specifically described below in this Section 7.01 and Section 7.02. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that, prior to making any Distributions, the Board has the power and authority to establish any reserve required or which the Board deems reasonably necessary to provide for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company.

(b) Tax Distributions.

(i) The Company may, in the sole discretion of the Board (and subject to the approval of the Majority Class C Investors), but subject to having available cash (after setting aside appropriate reserves), distribute to the Unitholders within seventy-five (75) days after the close of any taxable year (or at such earlier times and in such amounts as determined in good faith by the Board to be appropriate to enable the Unitholders to pay estimated income tax liabilities) an amount such that total Distributions made with respect to such taxable year equal no less than forty percent (40%) (or, at the Board’s sole discretion, such greater or lesser percentage as the Board may determine in good faith from time to time, to represent the maximum effective marginal federal, state and local income tax rate for the Company’s type(s) of income in issue applicable to any Unitholder or its ultimate partners, members or stockholders that will include the Unitholder’s taxable income in their tax returns, if applicable) of the Unitholder’s allocable share of the excess of (i) the amount of the Company’s taxable income for such year, over (ii) the amount, if any, by which (A) the Company’s total net taxable losses for all prior periods exceed (B) its total net taxable income for all prior periods for which no prior Tax Distributions have been made. Amounts distributed pursuant to this Section 7.01(b) shall be referred to herein as “Tax Distributions”. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 7.01(b)(i), if, at the end of any taxable year of the Company, any Class C Preference Holdback Amount remains in escrow by reason of Section 7.02(g), the Company shall make a Distribution (a “Special Tax Distribution”) to the Class C Unitholders within seventy-five (75) days after the close of such taxable year (or at such earlier times and in such amounts as determined in good faith by the Board to be appropriate to enable the Class C Unitholders to pay estimated income tax liabilities) in an amount equal to forty percent (40%) (or, at the Board’s sole discretion, such greater or lesser percentage as the Board may determine in good faith from time to time, to represent the maximum effective marginal federal, state and local income tax rate for the Company’s type(s) of income in issue applicable to any Unitholder or its ultimate partners, members or stockholders that will include the Unitholder’s taxable income in their tax returns, if applicable) of the

Class C Unitholders’ allocable share of the taxable income or gain attributable or related to the Class C Preference Holdback Amount. Such Special Tax Distribution shall be treated as a prepayment of Distributions otherwise to have been made to the Class C Unitholders pursuant to Section 7.02(c) or Section 9.02(c) (to the extent Section 9.02(c) would cause the Class C Unitholders to receive a distribution pursuant to Section 7.02(c)). The Company, in its discretion, may make the Special Tax Distribution either (1) directly from the Company or (2) by distributing a portion of the Class C Preference Holdback Amount.

(ii) All Tax Distributions made by the Company to or on behalf of any Unitholder shall, for purposes of determining future Distributions to holders of Preferred Units and Common Units to be made with respect to such Unitholder’s Units under Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c), be treated as a prepayment of Distributions otherwise to have been made to such Unitholder under Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c). In computing the actual dollar amounts to be distributed to each Unitholder pursuant to Sections 7.02 or Section 9.02(c) after taking into account prior Tax Distributions, prior or contemporaneous payments of Tax Distributions shall first be taken into account and treated as a prepayment of amounts payable to the Unitholders under Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c) in accordance with the following methodology: (A) first, the total amount to be distributed upon any particular Distribution pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c) shall be added to the aggregate amount of prior or contemporaneous payments of Tax Distributions that have not previously been included in a computation pursuant to this Section 7.01(b)(ii) to produce a sum hereinafter described as the “Grossed-Up Total”; (B) then, the provisions of Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c) as applicable, shall be applied to the Grossed-Up Total, to determine the respective shares of the Grossed-Up Total attributable to the Units of each of the holders thereof; (C) then, from the Grossed-Up Total attributable to the Units of each of the holders thereof, there shall be subtracted the amount of the prior or contemporaneous payments of the Tax Distributions included in step (i) for this calculation that were previously or contemporaneously paid; and (D) finally, the difference obtained in step (iii) above shall be the dollar amount distributable to and among the Unitholders pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 9.02(c) as applicable.

(c) Company Sale or Subsidiary Sale. Upon any Company Sale, unless otherwise waived in writing by the Super Majority Class C Investors, after the Company has repaid its debt obligations and the Company Sale transaction-related expenses, and created a reserve for any anticipated future transaction-related expenses, the remaining net proceeds of such Company Sale shall be distributed to the Unitholders in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 7.02 and 7.03. Upon any Subsidiary Sale that is not a Company Sale, unless otherwise waived in writing by the Super Majority Class C Investors, after the Company has repaid its debt obligations and any Subsidiary Sale transaction-related expenses, and created a reserve for any anticipated future transaction-related expenses, (i) the remaining net proceeds of such Subsidiary Sale shall be distributed to the Unitholders in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 7.02 and 7.03, and further subject to deduction for any Subsidiary Sale Set Aside Amount, if any, as set forth below and (ii) such Subsidiary that is the subject of the Subsidiary Sale shall be dissolved and liquidated in accordance with applicable law and its governing documents. Upon any Subsidiary Sale that is not a Company Sale, the Board shall make a determination, in its complete discretion, as to whether any portion of the net proceeds of such Subsidiary Sale shall be allotted and paid to any individuals as compensation for their role in the Subsidiary Sale transaction (any such amount, a “Subsidiary Sale Set Aside Amount”). Any determination as to whether there will be any Subsidiary Sale Set Aside Amount, and the allotment of such amount to any individuals, will be in the sole and complete discretion of the Board, and there shall be no obligation on the part of the Company and the Board to so allot any amount of net proceeds of a Subsidiary Sale. Any Subsidiary Sale Set Aside Amount, if any, shall be deducted from the proceeds from such Subsidiary Sale available for distribution to Unitholders in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 7.02 and 7.03.

(d) Mandatory Conversion. Subject to the election in Section 4.14(a), upon a mandatory conversion of Preferred Units in accordance with Section 4.14, as required by Section 4.14 the Company shall make a Distribution in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 7.02 and 7.03 to all Preferred Unitholders equal to the amount of all Unpaid Yield with respect to the converted Preferred Units.

7.02 Application of Distributions.

Distributions other than Tax Distributions shall be made in the order and priority as set forth in subsections (a) through (c) below, subject to the other paragraphs of this Section 7.02:

(a) First, Distributions shall be made to the Class C Unitholders having any Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, any Unpaid Yield or any Unsatisfied Class C Preference in an amount equal to the sum of their Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, Unpaid Yield and the Unsatisfied Class C Preference determined immediately prior to such Distribution (in the proportions that each such Class C Unitholder’s Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, Unpaid Yield and Unsatisfied Class C Preference determined immediately prior to such Distribution bears to the aggregate Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, Unpaid Yield and Unsatisfied Class C Preference of all Class C Unitholders determined immediately prior to such Distribution) until Distributions have been made with respect to each such Class C Unitholder’s Preferred Units pursuant to this Section 7.02(a) in an amount equal to the sum of the total Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, Unpaid Yield and Unsatisfied Class C Preference with respect to such Class C Unitholder’s Preferred Units determined immediately prior to such Distribution, and no Distribution or any portion thereof shall be made under any succeeding paragraph of this Section 7.02 until the entire amount of Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount, Unpaid Yield and Unsatisfied Class C Preference with respect to all Class C Units, determined immediately prior to the time Distributions under this Section 7.02(a) are to be made, has been distributed and paid in full; provided, however, that upon a mandatory conversion, as described in Section 7.01(d), Distributions shall be made under this Section 7.02(a) (in accordance with Sections 7.01(d) and 4.14) only to the holders of the converted Preferred Units and only in the amount of the Unpaid Yield with respect to each such Unitholder’s converted Preferred Units, and no Distributions shall be made with respect to the Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount and the Unsatisfied Class C Preference for any such converted Units;

(b) Second, Distributions shall be made to the Class A Unitholders and Class B Unitholders having any Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount or any Unpaid Yield, in an amount equal to the sum of their respective Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield determined immediately prior to such Distribution (in the proportions that each such Class A Unitholder’s and Class B Unitholder’s Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield determined immediately prior to such Distribution bears to the aggregate Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield of all Class A Unitholders and Class B Unitholders determined immediately prior to such Distribution) until Distributions have been made with respect to each such Class A Unitholder’s and Class B Unitholder’s Preferred Units pursuant to this Section 7.02(b) in an amount equal to the sum of the total Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount plus Unpaid Yield with respect to such Class A Unitholder’s and Class B Unitholder’s Preferred Units determined immediately prior to such Distribution, and no Distribution or any portion thereof shall be made under any succeeding paragraph of this Section 7.02(b) until the entire amount of Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount and Unpaid Yield with respect to all Class A Units and Class B Units, determined immediately prior to the time Distributions under this Section 7.02(b) are to be made, has been distributed and paid in full; provided, however, that upon a mandatory conversion, as described in Section 7.01(d), Distributions shall be made under this Section 7.02(b) (in accordance with Sections 7.01(d) and 4.14) only to the holders of the converted Preferred Units and only in the amount of the Unpaid Yield with respect to each such Unitholder’s converted Preferred Units, and no Distributions shall be made with respect to the Unreturned Preferred Unit Amount for any such converted Units; and

(c) Thereafter, any balance remaining shall be distributed to and among the Unitholders ratably based on (A) with respect to holders of Common Units, the number of Common Units then held by such holder and (B) with respect to holders of Preferred Units, the number of Common Units issuable to such holder upon the conversion of all Preferred Units held by such holder.

(d) Contingent Consideration. In the event of a Distribution resulting from a Company Sale which includes both Initial Consideration and Contingent Consideration, the definitive acquisition agreement relating thereto shall provide that (i) the Initial Consideration shall be distributed among the Members of the Company in accordance with this Section 7.02 as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Company Sale and (ii) any Contingent Consideration shall be distributed among the Members of the Company in accordance with this Section 7.02 after taking into account the previous Distributions of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction and in accordance with the definition of Class C Preference.

(e) Company Sale where Members Receive Consideration. If, in connection with a Company Sale pursuant to subparagraphs (b) or (c) of the definition of Company Sale, the consideration in such Company Sale is paid directly to the Unitholders and not to the Company, then the definitive acquisition agreement relating to such Company Sale shall provide that the consideration shall be paid in the priorities and proportions in accordance with this Section 7.02 as if such consideration was paid directly by the Company and then distributed to the Unitholders.

(f) Escrow or Holdback Payments. With respect to any Company Sale or any Subsidiary Sale in which any portion of the consideration is subject to an escrow or holdback, the Unitholders shall only be required to participate in any such escrow or holdback to the extent that there is consideration payable to the Unitholders under Section 7.02 as follows:

(i) First, the Unitholders shall contribute their pro-rata portion of such escrow or holdback amount as determined by their relative portion of the transaction proceeds distributed pursuant to Section 7.02(c).

(ii) Second, if the amounts contributed pursuant to clause (i) are insufficient to fund the escrow or holdback, then the Unitholders shall contribute their pro-rata portion of such remaining escrow or holdback amount as determined by their relative portion of the proceeds distributed pursuant to Section 7.02(b); and

(iii) Finally, if the amounts contributed pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) are insufficient to fund the escrow or holdback, the Unitholders shall contribute their pro-rata portion of such remaining escrow or holdback amount as determined by their relative portion of the proceeds distributed pursuant to Section 7.02(a).

(g) Class C Preference Holdback. For purposes of effecting the intent of the definition of Class C Preference, if the sum of a Present Distribution plus the amount of all prior Distributions exceeds $325,000,000 but is less than $350,000,000, then the amount of such excess attributable to the Present Distribution (the aggregate of any such amount or amounts the “Class C Preference Holdback Amount”) shall be deposited and held in escrow by an escrow agent selected by the Company, subject to the approval of (i) the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the then outstanding Preferred Units and (ii) the Super Majority Class C Investors, whereby such escrow agent shall hold such Class C Preference Holdback Amount until the earlier to occur of (1) the date of the next Distribution in which the amount of the next Distribution plus all prior Distributions (including any prior Class C Preference Holdback Amounts and any Special Tax Distributions) exceeds $350,000,000, in which case such Class C Preference Holdback Amount shall be distributed to Unitholders (x) first, to the

extent necessary to effect the intent set forth in the definition of Class C Preference such that the Class C Preference had been zero dollars ($0.00) and (y) any remainder shall be distributed to Unitholders in accordance with Section 7.02(c) and (2) five (5) years after the date of the last contribution to the Class C Preference Holdback Amount, in which case the Class C Preference Holdback Amount shall be distributed in accordance with Section 7.02(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Special Tax Distribution is required pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i), the Company in its discretion may instruct the escrow agent to make such distribution out of the Class C Preference Holdback Amount, which will reduce the amount of the Class C Preference Holdback Amount available for future distribution.

7.03 Set-Offs Against Loans.

The Board shall have the right to cause the Company to apply all or any portion of any amount of a Distribution otherwise distributable to a Unitholder against any sums then due and owing to the Company from such Unitholder. The portion of any such Distribution so applied as a set-off against amounts due and owing shall nevertheless be treated as a Distribution with respect to the Unitholder’s Interest for purposes of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the determination of the Unitholder’s Capital Account balance and the amount of future allocations and Distributions to which the Unitholder is entitled.

7.04 Withdrawals from Capital Accounts.

Unitholders may not withdraw any amount from their Company Capital Accounts, except to the extent of Distributions made in accordance with this Agreement.

7.05 Compromise.

None of the Company, any creditor of the Company or any other Person shall have any claim against any Unitholder with respect to any Distribution made by the Company to such Unitholder, and any such claim that the Company, any creditor of the Company or any other Person might have for return of such Distribution shall be deemed to be “compromised” within the meaning of section 18-502(b) of the Act by the terms of this Section 7.05; provided, however, that the foregoing is not intended and shall not apply, as between and among the Company and the Unitholders, to Distributions made that are not in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF UNITHOLDERS

8.01 Limitation of Liability.

Except as provided in this Agreement or in the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Unitholder, Representative or officer of the Company shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability solely by reason of being a Unitholder or acting as a Representative or officer of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Unitholder’s liability (in its capacity as such) for Company liabilities and Losses shall be limited to the Company’s assets; provided, however, that a Unitholder shall be required to return to the Company any Distribution made to it in clear and manifest accounting or similar error. The immediately preceding sentence shall constitute a compromise to which all Unitholders have consented within the meaning of the Act. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business and affairs under this

Agreement or the Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on the Unitholders for liabilities of the Company.

8.02 Lack of Authority.

No Unitholder in its capacity as such (other than through its Representative, as a Representative) has the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company, to do any act that would be binding on the Company or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, and the Unitholders hereby consent to the exercise by the Board and the Representatives of the powers conferred on them by applicable law and this Agreement.

8.03 No Right of Partition.

No Unitholder shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation of any Company property, or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Company.

8.04 Members’ Right to Act.

For situations in which the approval of the Members (rather than the approval of the Board on behalf of the Members) is required, the Members shall act through meetings and written consents as described in Sections 8.04(a) and (b) below:

(a) For all purposes of this Agreement, the Act and all other applicable law, each Member holding Units shall have the number of votes on any matter to be voted on, or approved or disapproved, by the Members that corresponds with the number of such Member’s Units and relative voting rights per Class of Units in accordance with Section 4.01. Any Member entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to express consent or dissent to Company action in writing without a meeting may authorize another individual or individuals to act for it by proxy. A telegram, telex, cablegram or similar transmission by the Member, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Member shall (if stated thereon) be treated as a proxy executed in writing for purposes of this Section 8.04(a). No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after eleven (11) months from the date thereof, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and that the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two (2) or more individuals to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such individuals present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or, if only one (1) be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one (1); or, if any even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

(b) The actions by the Members permitted hereunder may be taken at a meeting called by (i) at least a majority of the Representatives or (ii) the Majority Class C Investors on at least five (5) days’ prior written notice to the Members entitled to vote, which notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called. All meetings of the Members shall be presided over by the chairman or any other Representative selected by the Board who shall determine the order of business and the procedures at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as it seems to him to be in order. The actions taken by the Members entitled to vote or consent at any meeting (as opposed to by written consent), however called and noticed, shall be as valid as actions taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if, either before, at or after the meeting, the Members entitled to vote or consent as to whom it was improperly held, if any, sign a written waiver of

notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. The actions by the Members entitled to vote or consent may be taken by vote of the Members entitled to vote or consent at a meeting or by written consent (without a meeting, without notice and without a vote) so long as such consent is signed by the Members having not less than the minimum percentage of Company voting power or votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. A consent transmitted by electronic transmission by a member or a person or persons authorized to act for a member shall be deemed to be written and signed for purposes of this Section 8.04(b). Prompt notice of the action so taken without a meeting shall be given to those Members entitled to vote or consent who have not consented in writing. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent of the Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting thereof

ARTICLE IX

DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

9.01 Events Causing Dissolution.

This Company shall be dissolved by the first to occur of the following events (a “Dissolution Event”):

(a) The vote by (i) the Board, (ii) Members holding greater than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the total outstanding Preferred Units and Common Units issued upon conversion of Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class and (iii) the Super Majority Class C Investors to dissolve the Company; or

(b) The entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under section 18-802 of the Act.

The Members hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of the Act, the Company shall not dissolve prior to the occurrence of a Dissolution Event. None of the other events set forth in section 18-801(b) of the Act shall cause the dissolution of the Company. Section 9.01(a) is expressly intended to override section 18-801(a)(3) of the Act.

9.02 Liquidation.

Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Board shall act as liquidator or may appoint one (1) or more of the Representatives or the Members as liquidator, which such liquidator shall be subject to the Board’s direction and control. The liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company, sell the assets of the Company or, as appropriate, cause any Subsidiary to sell its assets in accordance with Section 9.03, and make final Distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Board. The liquidator shall undertake the following:

(a) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made, by a recognized national or regional firm of certified public accountants, of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;

(b) the liquidator shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise

make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); and

(c) finally, all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed among the holders of Units in accordance with the order and priority of Distributions set forth in Section 7.02, after giving effect to all contributions, prior Distributions and allocations for all periods (including allocations of gain, loss and other items, as well as any gross items as provided in the proviso in the definition of Losses and Profits) in connection with the winding up and liquidation of the Company, which shall be allocated as may be required in order for each Unitholder’s Capital Account balance, prior to the making of Liquidating Distributions of the Company, to correspond as nearly as possible with the amount of Distributions to be received by such Unitholder in connection with the winding up and liquidation of the Company and the Unitholder’s Interest therein). Distributions upon liquidation of the Company (or any Unitholder’s Interest in the Company) and related adjustments shall be made by the end of the taxable year of the liquidation (or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation) or at such other time as may be permitted by the Regulations.

The distribution of cash and/or property to a Unitholder in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02 and Section 9.03 constitutes a complete return to the Unitholder of its Capital Contributions and a complete Distribution to the Unitholder of its Interest in the Company and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Unitholders have consented within the meaning of the Act. To the extent that a Unitholder returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Unitholder for those funds.

9.03 Deferment; Distribution in Kind.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if upon dissolution of the Company, the liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company’s assets or the assets of any Subsidiary would be impractical or would cause undue loss (or would otherwise not be beneficial) to the Unitholders, the liquidator may, in its sole discretion (or subject to the approval of the Board if the liquidator is not the Board), defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those assets necessary to satisfy Company liabilities and reserves. Subject to the order of priorities set forth in Section 9.02, the liquidator may, in its sole discretion (or subject to the approval of the Board if the liquidator is not the Board), distribute to the Unitholders, in lieu of cash, either (i) all or any portion of such remaining Company assets (or assets of any Subsidiary) in kind in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02(c), or (ii) as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02(c), undivided interests in all or any portion of such Company assets or assets of any Subsidiary, or (iii) a combination of the foregoing. Any such Distributions in kind shall be subject to (x) such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such assets as the liquidator (subject to the approval of the Board if the liquidator is not the Board) deems reasonable and equitable and (y) the terms and conditions of any agreement governing such assets (or the operation thereof or the holders thereof) at such time. Any Company assets distributed in kind will first be written up or down to their Fair Market Value, thus creating gain or loss (if any), which shall be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02(c) for allocations of gain or loss in connection with the winding up and liquidation of the Company. The liquidator shall determine the Fair Market Value of any property distributed in accordance with the valuation procedures set forth in ARTICLE XIII.

9.04 Cancellation of Certificate.

On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Company is terminated (and the Company shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the Board (or such other Person or Persons

as the Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company. The Company shall be deemed to continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.04.

9.05 Reasonable Time for Winding Up.

A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Sections 9.02 and 9.03 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up.

9.06 Return of Capital.

Without limiting the foregoing, no family member, or spouse thereof, of a Unitholder or officer of the Company can work for the Company (other than an internship lasting not longer than four (4) months and in exchange for wages consistent with market rates for such positions) without prior approval of each of the Investor Representatives.

ARTICLE XII

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

12.01 Registration Rights.

The Company hereby grants to each of the Holders the registration rights set forth in this ARTICLE XII with respect to the Registrable Securities (as defined below) owned by such Holders. The Company and the Holders agree that the registration rights provided herein set forth the sole and entire agreement, and supersede any prior agreement, between the Company and the Holders with respect to registration rights for the Company’s securities.

12.02 Demand Registration.

(a) Demand for Registration. Beginning upon the earlier of (i) May 13, 2013, and (ii) the date six (6) months after the effective date of the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, if the Company shall receive from the Initiating Holders a written demand that the Company effect any registration (a “Demand Registration”) of Registrable Securities (other than a registration on Form S-3 or any related form of Registration Statement, such a request being provided for under Section 12.09 hereof) with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least $1,500,000, the Company will:

(i) promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days) give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders; and

(ii) use its best efforts to effect such registration as soon as practicable and as will permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Initiating Holders’

Registrable Securities as are specified in such demand, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such demand as are specified in a written demand received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after such written notice is given, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 12.02:

(A) after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 12.02;

(B) if the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company, stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its Unitholders for such Registration Statement to be filed at the date filing would be required, in which case the Company shall have an additional period or periods of not more than ninety (90) days within which to file such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not use this right to delay the filing more than once nor for any period greater than ninety (90) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) consecutive-month period; or

(C) if prior to the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, such registration shall not have been requested by Holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding.

(b) Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their demand by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as part of their demand made pursuant to this Section 12.02, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 12.02(a)(i). The managing underwriter shall be mutually agreed upon by the Initiating Holders and the Board. In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 12.02 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.

The Company shall, together with the Holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters mutually agreed upon by the Company and at least a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.02, if the underwriter shall advise the Company that marketing factors (including an adverse effect on the per-Unit offering price) require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that have requested to participate in such offering, and the number of Units of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated pro rata among such Holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Holders at the time of filing the Registration Statement. No Registrable Securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration.

If any Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating Holders. The Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration.

No securities other than Registrable Securities shall be included among the securities covered by such registration without the prior written consent of Holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in the offering.

If the underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the Company (based on the Board’s determination) may include securities for its own account (or for the account of other Unitholders) in such registration if the underwriter so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities would not thereby be limited. A Demand Registration under this Section 12.02 shall not be deemed to have occurred nor be considered a Demand Registration for purposes of the limit on Demand Registrations that may be requested pursuant to Section 12.02(a) above, if the number of Registrable Securities included in a registration is reduced in accordance with this Section 12.02(b) such that less than fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities sought to be included in such registration are included.

12.03 Piggyback Registration.

(a) Company Registration. If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its own account or for the account of security holders, other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, a registration on Form S-4 relating solely to an SEC Rule 145 transaction or a registration pursuant to Sections 12.02 or 12.09 hereof, the Company will:

(i) promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days) give to each Holder written notice thereof; and

(ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under state securities laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made within thirty (30) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company, by any Holder or Holders, except as set forth in Section 12.03(b) below.

(b) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 12.03(a)(i). In such event the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein.

All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall, together with the Company and the other parties distributing their securities through such underwriting, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.03, if the underwriter determines in writing that the inclusion of all Registrable Securities which the Holders have requested be included would materially jeopardize the success of the offering, the Company may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting, or may exclude Registrable Securities entirely from such registration and underwriting subject to the terms of this Section 12.03. The Company shall so advise all holders of the Company’s securities that would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Units of such securities, including Registrable Securities, that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the following manner: (i) first, securities, other than Registrable Securities and other securities that have contractual rights with respect to registration similar to those provided for in this Section 12.03, requested to be included in such registration by Unitholders shall be excluded, (ii) second, if a limitation on the number of securities still is required, securities other than Registrable Securities that have contractual rights with respect to registration shall be excluded, and (iii) third, if a limitation on the number of securities is still required, the number of Registrable Securities that may be included shall be

allocated among the Holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the amounts of Registrable Securities held by each such Holder at the time of filing the Registration Statement. No securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. Except as specifically set forth herein, nothing in this Section 12.03(b) is intended to diminish the number of securities to be included by the Company in the underwriting.

If any Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. The Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration, and the Company shall bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with such registration as provided in Section 12.04 below.

(c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 12.03 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the Holders of Registrable Securities in connection with such registration initiated under this Section 12.03 as provided in Section 12.04. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 12.03 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 12.02.

12.04 Expenses of Registration.

All expenses incurred by the Company in performing or complying with its obligations under this Agreement in connection with the registration of Registrable Securities under Sections 12.02, 12.03 or 12.09, including all registration and filing fees, including fees with respect to filings required to be made with the SEC or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters and counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities), printing expenses, messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel of the Company and of all independent public accountants of the Company (including the expenses of any special audit and “comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance), reasonable fees and disbursements of one (1) counsel for the selling Holders, underwriters fees (excluding underwriter discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the Holders thereof, which shall be paid by the selling Holders on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities being sold by them), securities acts liability insurance (to the extent then available on reasonable commercial terms), and fees and expenses of other Persons retained by the Company (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees or any Subsidiaries’ officers or employees used by the Company) will be borne by the Company whether or not any of the Registration Statements become effective. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding under Section 12.02 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holder of the Registrable Securities to have been registered, in which event either such registration shall count as a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 12.02, and the Company shall bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with such registration, or at the election of the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to have been registered, such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration and the Holders of Registrable Securities to have been registered shall bear all such expenses pro rata on the basis of the Registrable Securities to have been registered. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, if at the time of the withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a materially adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of said expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 12.02 and provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration pursuant to Section 12.09 if the Company has effected two (2) registrations pursuant to Section 12.09 in

the preceding twelve (12) months and paid the expenses thereof, in which event the Holders of Registrable Securities to be registered shall bear all such expenses pro rata on the basis of Registrable Securities to be registered.

12.05 Obligations of the Company.

Whenever required under Sections 12.02, 12.03 or 12.09 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible (or within ninety (90) days with respect to subsection (a)):

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, and keep such Registration Statement effective for the lesser of one hundred twenty (120) days or until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution relating thereto; provided, however, that (i) such one hundred twenty (120)-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an underwriter of Common Units (or other securities) of the Company and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules, such one hundred twenty (120)-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the Registration Statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement for the period set forth in subsection (a) above;

(c) furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the 1933 Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them;

(d) concurrently with the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such states and other jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders or the managing underwriter, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business in any such states or jurisdictions unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the 1933 Act;

(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering, and each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement subject to the limitations in Sections 12.02 and 12.03;

(f) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and prepare and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or amendment of such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such

Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made;

(g) use its best efforts to list the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement on a national securities exchange or trading system and on any securities exchange on which the Common Units are then listed;

(h) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or reported on each consolidated reporting system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or reported, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the registration constitutes an initial public offering of the Common Units, then the Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be listed on such securities exchange or reported on such consolidated reporting systems as shall be agreed upon by the Company and a representative designated by at least a majority in interest of the Holders participating in such registration (the “Holder Representative”);

(i) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

(j) furnish, at the request of any Holder or Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Sections 12.02, 12.03, and 12.09 hereof, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for the sale pursuant to such registration or, if such Registrable Securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) with respect to such Registrable Securities becomes effective, (x) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holder or Holders making such request, covering such legal matters with respect to the registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the Holder requesting such opinion may reasonably request, in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by such legal opinions, and (y) a comfort letter or comfort letters dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holder or Holders making such request, stating that they are independent certified public accountants within the meaning of the 1933 Act, in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by such comfort letter(s). Such comfort letter(s) from the independent certified public accountants shall additionally cover such other financial matters with respect to the registration in respect of which such letter is being given as the Holder requesting such letter may reasonably request, provided such matters are of a nature that accountants are normally required to opine upon in connection with such registration and which shall be necessary to effectuate such registration or offering;

(k) use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement or such other document covering a period of twelve (12) months, beginning within three (3) months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and Rule 158 (or any successor provision) thereunder;

(l) allow the Holder Representative to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the SEC and each amendment or supplement thereto and make available for inspection by each Holder including Registrable Securities in such registration, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration, and any attorney, accountant, advisors or other agent retained by such Holder or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent limited liability company or corporate documents and properties of the Company

and its Subsidiaries, as such parties may reasonably request, and cause the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors and employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant, advisor or agent in connection with such Registration Statement;

(m) cooperate with Holders including Registrable Securities in such registration and the managing underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold, such certificates to be in such denominations and registered in such names as such Holders or the managing underwriters may request at least two (2) business days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities; and

(n) permit one (1) representative of the Holders participating in the registration to participate in good faith in the preparation of such Registration Statement and to require the insertion therein of material, furnished to the Company in writing, that in the reasonable judgment of such Holder and its counsel should be included.

12.06 Indemnification.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder participating in the registration, its directors, stockholders, officers, partners, advisers, employees, affiliates, members, attorneys and agents and each underwriter involved in such registration and each other Person, if any, who controls each selling Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act from and against any losses, judgments, claims, damages, liabilities, (or actions in respect thereof) whether joint or several, to which each selling Holder or its officers, directors, stockholders, advisers, employees, affiliates, members, attorneys, agents or partners or underwriter or controlling Person may become subject arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon the untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the 1933 Act applicable to the Company and relating to any action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, and will reimburse such selling Holder, its officers, directors, stockholders, advisers, employees, affiliates, members, attorneys, agents and partners and such underwriter and each such controlling Person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them as they are incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to a selling Holder or its officers, directors, stockholders, advisers, employees, affiliates, members, attorneys, agents or partners, or controlling Persons in any such case to the extent that any such loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability (or action in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement of material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein.

(b) If Registrable Securities held by or issuable to a Holder are included in such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this ARTICLE XII, such Holder does hereby undertake to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its Representatives and officers, and each Person controlling the Company, each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls any underwriter, of the Registrable Securities covered by such a Registration Statement, and each other

Holder, each of such other Holder’s officers, directors, managers, partners, members and agents and each Person controlling such other Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made, and will reimburse, as incurred, the Company, each such underwriter, each such other Holder and each such director, officer, manager, partner, member, agent and controlling Person of the foregoing, for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) was made in such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the liability of each Holder hereunder shall be several and not joint, and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of securities under such Registration Statement. It is understood and agreed that the indemnification obligations of each Holder pursuant to any underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any Registration Statement shall be limited to the obligations contained in this Section 12.06(b).

(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 12.06 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim as to which indemnification may be sought promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge thereof, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be subject to approval by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at the Indemnified Party’s expense. If representation of such Indemnified Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding or if the Indemnifying Party shall fail, within a reasonable time after notice of the claim, to have given written notice of its intention to assume such defense and to have employed counsel approved by the Indemnified Party to assume the defense of such claim or litigation, or if the Indemnifying Party fails timely and actively to assume or to continue to assume the defense of such claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such claim or litigation on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ one (1) separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this ARTICLE XII, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such claim or any such litigation. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any claim or litigation, shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include, as an unconditional term, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such third party claim or litigation. In no event shall an Indemnified Party consent to any entry of any judgment in a third-party claim or litigation, or settle a third-party claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Indemnifying Party fails to timely give notice of its intention to assume defense or timely and actively to assume and continue such defense.

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling Person of any such Holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 12.06 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent

jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 12.06 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of any such Holder or any such Controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 12.06; then, and in each such case, the Company and such Holder will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnifying Party as a result of such aggregate claims, losses, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions that resulted in such aggregate claims, losses, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, including the relative benefits received from the offering. The relative faults of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in any case, (A) no such Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such Holder in the offering and (B) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) will be entitled to contribution from any Person that was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The indemnities provided in this Section 12.06 shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by such Holder.

12.07 Information by Holder.

The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this ARTICLE XII.

12.08 Transfer and Assignment of Rights.

The rights contained in this ARTICLE XII may be Transferred in whole or in part together with a Transfer or assignment of Preferred Units or Registrable Securities, and the transferee of such Preferred Units or Registrable Securities shall be considered a “Holder” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that in order to effect such a Transfer of rights (i) the transferee must be recipient of at least (0.5%) of the total number of the Preferred Units or Registrable Securities held by all Holders, and (ii) the transferee must agree to be bound by the obligations of this Agreement. Any such transferee may again Transfer such rights in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

12.09 Form S-3.

(a) The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on SEC Form S-3 (or any future form that is substantially equivalent to the current Form S-3) as soon as it is eligible. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form S–3, the Holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities shall have the right to request registrations on Form S-3 thereafter under this Section 12.09. The Company shall give notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities of the receipt of a request for registration pursuant to this Section 12.09 and shall provide a reasonable opportunity for other Holders to participate in the registration. Subject to the foregoing, the Company will use its best efforts to effect as soon as practicable, and in any event within ninety (90)

days, the registration of all Registrable Securities on Form S–3 to the extent requested by the Holder or Holders thereof for purposes of disposition; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $1,000,000. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration requested pursuant to this Section 12.09, including all registration, filing, qualification, printers’ and accounting fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one (1) counsel for the selling Holder or Holders and counsel for the Company, but excluding any underwriters’ discounts or commissions associated with Registrable Securities, shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 12.04. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 12.09 shall not be counted as registrations or demands for registration effected pursuant to Sections 12.02 and 12.03. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall restrict, prohibit or limit in any way a Holder’s ability to exercise its registration rights under Sections 12.02 or 12.03 hereof. The Company may delay registration pursuant to this Section 12.09 to the extent of the provisions of Section 12.02(a)(ii)(B) (which shall be deemed to apply to the obligations under this Section 12.09 with equal force).

(b) If the Holders requesting registration on Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 12.09 so request, the Registrable Securities covered by such Form S-3 shall be distributed by means of an underwriting upon the same terms and conditions as an underwritten distribution pursuant to Section 12.02(b) hereof.

12.10 Delay of Registration.

No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration of securities as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this ARTICLE XII.

12.11 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights.

From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Majority Class C Investors, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder to (a) require the Company to effect a registration, or (b) include any securities in any registration filed under Section 12.02, 12.03, and 12.09 hereof.

12.12 Rule 144 Reporting.

With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to use its diligent efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public so long as the Company remains subject to the periodic reporting requirements under sections 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act;

(b) take such action, including the voluntary registration of its Common Units under section 12 of the 1934 Act, as is necessary to enable the Preferred Unitholders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the

Fiscal Year in which the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective;

(c) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act; and

(d) furnish to any Preferred Unitholder, so long as the Preferred Unitholder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company), the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to SEC Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Preferred Unitholder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

12.13 Market Stand Off Agreement.

Each Holder hereby agrees that during a period, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, following the effective date of the initial, effective Registration Statement of the Company filed under the 1933 Act, it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and any underwriter, sell, pledge, Transfer, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise Transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any Common Units held by it at any time during such period except Common Units included in such registration, and each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters that are consistent with this Section 12.13 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto; provided that all One Percent Unitholders and all officers and Representatives of the Company also enter into similar agreements (each such agreement, a “Market Stand Off Agreement”). Any such agreement shall be in a form satisfactory to the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities. Neither the Company nor the underwriter shall amend, terminate or waive any such agreement unless each Market Stand Off Agreement with each Holder is also amended or waived in a similar manner or terminated, as the case may be. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the securities held by each Holder (and the Units or securities of every other Person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

12.14 Termination of Rights.

The rights of any particular Holder under this ARTICLE XII shall terminate as to any Holder on the date that is seven (7) years after the closing of a Qualified Public Offering.

ARTICLE XIII

VALUATION

13.01 Determination.

The Fair Market Value of the assets of the Company or of any Units or other Interest in the Company will be determined by the Board (or, if pursuant to Section 9.03, the liquidator) in its good faith judgment in such manner as it deems reasonable and using all factors, information and data deemed to be pertinent, subject to the written approval of the Majority Class C Investors.

13.02 Determination of Fair Market Value.

“Fair Market Value” (i) of a specific Company asset will mean the amount which the Company would receive in an all-cash sale of such asset in an arm’s-length transaction with a third party that is not an Affiliate of the Company consummated on the date immediately preceding the date of the notice which necessitated the determination of the Fair Market Value (and after giving effect to any transfer taxes and transaction costs payable in connection with such sale); (ii) of the Company will mean the amount that the Company would receive in an all-cash sale of all of its assets and businesses as a going concern in an arm’s-length transaction with a third party that is not an Affiliate of the Company consummated on the date immediately preceding the date on which the event occurred that necessitated the determination of the Fair Market Value (assuming that all of the proceeds from such sale were paid directly to the Company other than an amount of such proceeds necessary to pay transfer taxes payable in connection with such sale, which amount will not be deemed received by the Company, and after giving effect to any other transaction costs payable in connection with such sales); and (iii) of a Unit or any Interest (or any portion thereof) in the Company shall be as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 13.02. In the event the Board (or, if pursuant to Section 9.03, the liquidator) and the Majority Class C Investors cannot agree upon the applicable Fair Market Value within thirty (30) days after the date upon which an option or obligation to purchase under this Agreement arises, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined by an appraiser agreed upon by the Board (or, if pursuant to Section 9.03, the liquidator) and the Majority Class C Investors. If the Board (or, if pursuant to Section 9.03, the liquidator) and the Majority Class C Investors cannot agree upon an appraiser, then the Board (or, if pursuant to Section 9.03, the liquidator) shall select one (1) appraiser and the Majority Class C Investors shall select one (1) appraiser, and those two (2) appraisers shall agree on a third (3^rd) appraiser who will perform the work. The appraiser used to determine the Fair Market Value of the assets of the Company or of an Interest or Unit is referred to herein as the “Arbiter”. The Arbiter shall determine the Fair Market Value and deliver its opinion to the Board. Such determination by the Arbiter shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and their permitted assigns absent manifest error. The terms of engagement of the Arbiter shall require the Arbiter to deliver such written opinion to the Board within forty-five (45) days following submission of such value determination to the Arbiter. The expenses of the Arbiter shall be paid by the Company unless the Fair Market Value determined by the Board shall be equal to or greater than that determined by the Arbiter, in which case the Majority Class C Investors shall pay one-half of such expenses.

After a determination of the Fair Market Value of the Company is made as provided above, the “Fair Market Value” of an Interest or Unit will be determined by making a calculation reflecting the cash Distributions that would be made to the Unitholders in accordance with this Agreement if the Company were deemed to have received such Fair Market Value in cash and then distributed the same to the Unitholders and others in accordance with the terms of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any agreement, document or instrument contemplated hereby, any amount to be paid under this Agreement by reference to the Fair Market Value shall be paid in full in cash, and any Interest being transferred in exchange therefor will be transferred free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests or other encumbrances.

ARTICLE XIV

(iv) a change that does not adversely affect any Unitholder in any material respect in its capacity as an owner of Units and cures any ambiguity; or

(v) a change to any schedule permitted under this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Section 3.07, in all other cases, this Agreement may be amended or modified upon the written consent of the Board and the written consent or approval of Members holding (i) greater than fifty percent (50%) of all outstanding Common Units and Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class on an as-converted into Common Unit basis, (ii) at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the total outstanding Preferred Units and (iii) the Majority Class C Investors; provided, however, that any provision requiring the vote, consent or approval of the “Super Majority Class C Investors” shall not be amended or modified without the prior written consent of the Super Majority Class C Investors; provided, further, that Section 3.03 shall not be amended to waive or eliminate any right of a Common Unitholder, Preferred Unitholder or Common Founder to designate a Representative of the Board or to appoint a non-voting observer to the Board without the written consent of such Common Unitholder, Preferred Unitholder or Common Founder; and, provided, further, that this Agreement may not be amended without the written consent of each Unitholder adversely affected if such amendment would (x) require additional Capital Contributions by such Unitholder, (y) render such Unitholder personally or individually liable for debts or obligations of the Company in excess of such Unitholder’s liability without the amendment, or (z) decrease the Unitholder’s priority of or proportionate share of Distributions from the Company or allocations or priority of allocations of the Company’s Profits or gains in a manner adversely different to holders of the same Class of Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, however, upon another Unitholder’s making of additional Capital Contributions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (including pursuant to the terms of an amendment to this Agreement adopted in accordance with this Section 14.01(b)), proportionate rights with respect to allocations and Distributions and the priority thereof of any Unitholder that does not make a proportionate additional Capital Contribution may be decreased by a proportionate amount as a result and pursuant to the terms of such Additional Capital Contribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 14.01(b), the provisions of Section 3.03 regarding the designation of Representatives shall not be amended or modified without the written consent of the Unitholder entitled to designate such Representative in accordance with this Section 3.03.

14.02 Power of Attorney.

(a) Each Unitholder does hereby make, constitute and appoint each Representative and the liquidator, and any successor thereto, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful

attorney with respect to affairs of the Company, for it and in its name, place and stead and for its own use and benefit to:

(i) execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record on its behalf in the appropriate public offices and publish (A) the Certificate; (B) all instruments that the Board deems appropriate to reflect any amendment, change (including but not limited to a change of membership) or modification of the Company or this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (C) certificates of fictitious or assumed name; (D) all certificates and other instruments and all amendments thereto that the Board deems appropriate or necessary to qualify, or continue the qualification of, the Company as a limited liability company wherein a Unitholder has limited liability in the jurisdictions in that the Company may conduct business; (E) all conveyances and other instruments or documents which the Board deems appropriate or necessary to reflect the dissolution and termination of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the drag-along rights with respect to an Approved Sale as set forth in Section 4.10; (F) consents to the withdrawal or reduction of a Unitholder’s invested capital as permitted under this Agreement; (G) all instruments relating to the admission, withdrawal or substitution of any Member or the permitted Transfer of a Unitholder’s Units or other portion of its Interest pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement; and (H) all instruments or other documents that the Board deems appropriate in order to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement;

(ii) take any actions, comparable to those set forth in Section 14.02(a)(i), with respect to any corporation, limited liability company or other organization or Entity in which the Company owns an interest; and

(b) The power of attorney granted under Section 14.02(a) by a Unitholder described in Section 14.02(a) to each Representative is a special power of attorney coupled with an interest and is irrevocable, shall not be affected by any subsequent incapacity or mental incompetence and is executed pursuant to the terms of the applicable laws of any state or other jurisdiction in respect to the creation of durable powers of attorney.

14.11 Creditors.

14.14 Descriptive Headings; Interpretation.

The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa. The use of the words “include” or “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Reference to any agreement, document or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and if applicable hereof. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, no amendment or other modification to any agreement, document or instrument that requires the consent of any Person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement will be given effect hereunder unless such Person has consented in writing to such amendment or modification. Unless otherwise indicated, reference in this Agreement to a “Section” or “Article” means a Section or Article, as applicable, of this Agreement. When used in this Agreement, words such as “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereof”, “hereto”, and “hereunder” shall refer to this Agreement as a whole, unless the context clearly requires otherwise. Wherever required by the context, references to a Fiscal Year shall refer to a portion thereof. The use of the words “or,” “either” and “any” shall not be exclusive. Any reference contained in this Agreement to specific statutory or regulatory provisions or to specific Governmental Entities shall include any successor statute or regulation, or Governmental Entity, as the case may be. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Wherever a conflict exists between this Agreement and any other agreement, this Agreement shall control, but solely to the extent of such conflict.

WHEREAS, Section 14.01(b) of the LLC Agreement provides for such amendments to the LLC Agreement upon the approval of the Company’s Board of Representatives (the “Board”) and the written consent or approval of Members holding (i) greater than fifty percent (50%) of all outstanding Common Units and Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class on an as-converted into Common Unit basis, (ii) at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the total outstanding Preferred Units and (iii) the Super Majority Class C Investors (together, the “Requisite Members”); and

WHEREAS, the undersigned Unitholders constitute the Requisite Members.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Amendment of LLC Agreement. The LLC Agreement is hereby amended, as follows:

A. Effective as of the date hereof, the definition of “New Securities” in Article I of the LLC Agreement is deleted in its entirety and inserted in lieu thereof is the following:

“ “New Securities” mean any Units of the Company, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase Units, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into or exercisable for Units; provided, however, that the term “New Securities” does not include: (i) Units issuable upon conversion of or with respect to Preferred Units; (ii) Common Units (as adjusted for any Unit splits, Unit dividends, combination or other reclassification) authorized under any equity incentive plan approved by the Board in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) Units issued pursuant to the exercise of any options, warrants, rights or agreements outstanding as of the date of this Agreement; (iv) securities issued in a Qualified Public Offering; (v) Units issued pursuant to any Unit Distribution on, or Unit split, combination or other reclassification by the Company of, the Preferred Units; (vi) subject to Section 4.09(e) below, Common Units issued to Optimer pursuant to the Optimer Agreement (the “Optimer Units”); (vii) Units (in up to an aggregate amount equal to one percent (1%) of the fully diluted capitalization of the Company) issued to strategic partners, such as clinical research organizations, licensors of technology to the Company or its Subsidiaries, and banks or equipment lessors pursuant to equipment financing arrangements approved by the Board; (viii) Units issued to the Class C Unitholders under Section 4.09(e); and (ix) notes and warrants issued pursuant to that certain Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated on or about August 5, 2011 (the “Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement”), and any Units issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof.”

B. Effective as of the date hereof, the second sentence of Section 4.01 of the LLC Agreement is deleted in its entirety and inserted in lieu thereof is the following sentence:

“The total number of Units the Company is authorized to issue is 189,465,977, of which (a) 110,000,000 shall be Common Units, (b) 21,773,669 shall be Class A Units, (c) 7,692,308 shall be Class B Units and (d) 50,000,000 shall be Class C Units.”

C. Effective as of the date hereof, Section 4.12(f) of the LLC Agreement is deleted in its entirety and inserted in lieu thereof is the following Section 4.12(f):

“(f) Exclusions for Adjustment for Issuances at Less Than the Conversion Price. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment of any Conversion Price in the case of: (i) Units, in the aggregate not to exceed one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding Common Units at the time of issuance on an as-converted basis, issued to strategic partners of the

Company or its Subsidiaries such as a clinical research organizations, licensors of technology to the Company or its Subsidiaries, or financial lending institutions pursuant to equipment financing arrangements; provided that such issuance has been approved by the Board, (ii) the 1,193,638 Common Units previously issued to Optimer pursuant to section 6.1 of the Optimer Agreement, (iii) the issuance of Common Units upon conversion of the Preferred Units, (iv) except for the adjustment contemplated by Section 4.11(b) with respect to the Class B Units, the issuance of any Class C Units under the Purchase Agreement, (v) up to 9,734,927 Common Units (as adjusted for any splits, Unit Distributions, combination or other reclassification) and options exercisable for such Common Units, issued to employees, officers, consultants or Representatives of the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to any incentive agreement or arrangement approved by the Board, (vi) the notes and warrants issued pursuant to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and any Units issued upon conversion or exercise thereof, or (vii) the issuance or sale of Units or options to purchase such Units to the extent (A) the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the then-outstanding Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class and (B) the Super Majority Class C Investors waive the right to an adjustment pursuant to Section 4.12(c). The issuances or sales described in this Section 4.12(f) shall be ignored for purposes of calculating any adjustment to any Conversion Price.”

D. Effective as of the date hereof, Section 4.14 of the LLC Agreement is amended by adding the following new subsection (c):

“(c) If any Major Investor (as defined below) fails to purchase such Major Investor’s full Note Pro-Rata Amount (as defined below) of the convertible promissory notes sold and issued by the Company pursuant to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (any such Major Investor is referred to herein as a “Defaulting Investor”), then, upon the consummation of the Closing (as defined in the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement), all or a portion of such Defaulting Investor’s Preferred Units shall automatically convert as of the Closing into Common Units without any further action by such Defaulting Investor or the Company and whether or not the certificate or certificates representing such Units are surrendered to the Company as follows:

(i) if such Defaulting Investor does not purchase any of its Note Pro-Rata Amount, then all of such Defaulting Investor’s Preferred Units shall be converted into Common Units at the then applicable conversion price for each such Preferred Unit; or

(ii) if such Defaulting Investor purchases a portion but not all of such Defaulting Investor’s Note Pro-Rata Amount, then a proportionate number of Preferred Units of each class of Preferred Units held by such Defaulting Investor shall be converted into Common Units at the then applicable conversion price for each such Preferred Unit as follows: the number of Preferred Units of each class to be converted into Common Units shall equal the product obtained by multiplying the

number of Preferred Units of such class held by such Defaulting Investor immediately prior to the Closing by a ratio (A) the numerator of which equals such Defaulting Investor’s Note Pro-Rata Amount minus the aggregate principal amount of the notes purchased by such Defaulting Investor at the Closing, and (B) the denominator of which is such Defaulting Investor’s Note Pro-Rata Amount; for example, if a Defaulting Investor’s Note Pro-Rata Amount is $100,000 and the aggregate principal amount of the notes purchased by such Defaulting Investor at the Closing is $70,000, then the resulting ratio for each class of Preferred Units held by such Defaulting Investor would equal: ($100,000 - $70,000) / $100,000, and thirty percent (30%) of such Defaulting Investor’s Class A Units, Class B Units, and Class C Units, respectively, would automatically convert into Common Units at the then applicable conversion price for such Preferred Units so converted.

“Note Pro-Rata Amount” for purposes of this Section 4.14(c) means, for each Preferred Unitholder, the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate principal amount of all notes offered for sale under the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement by a ratio (i) the numerator of which is the number of Common Units, plus the number of Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Preferred Units or other convertible securities or other rights or instruments, held by such Preferred Unitholder on the date of the Note Pro-Rata Notice (as defined below), and (ii) the denominator of which is the number of Common Units, plus the number of Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Preferred Units or other convertible securities or other rights or instruments, held by all Preferred Unitholders on the date of the Note Pro-Rata Notice. For purposes of determining whether a Major Investor has purchased its full Note Pro-Rata Amount under this Section 4.14(c), the aggregate principal amount of the notes purchased by any such Major Investor shall include the aggregate principal amount of any notes purchased by an Affiliate of such Major Investor.

At least ten (10) days prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide notice to each Preferred Unitholder by electronic mail of (i) such Preferred Unitholder’s opportunity to participate in the sale and issuance of the notes and warrants pursuant to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, (ii) such Preferred Unitholder’s Note Pro-Rata Amount, and (iii) the consequences, if any, of such Preferred Unitholder’s failure to purchase the full Note Pro-Rata Amount (the “Note Pro-Rata Notice”).

The mechanics for conversion and other provisions relating to conversion of Preferred Units into Common Units set forth elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply to the mandatory conversion of the Preferred Units under this Section 4.14(c). Upon any conversion pursuant to this Section 4.14(c), any Unpaid Yield related to the Preferred Units so converted shall be forfeited in full and no payment shall be made on account thereof.”

FOURTH AMENDMENT TO

CEMPRA HOLDINGS, LLC

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT

THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE CEMPRA HOLDINGS, LLC SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into as of 3:00 p.m. on October 11, 2011, by and among the Members, also referred to as Unitholders, as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of May 13, 2009 (as amended, the “LLC Agreement”) and Cempra Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”). Unless otherwise specified, all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the LLC Agreement.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company desires to conduct an initial public offering and, in connection therewith, deems it advisable and in the best interests of the Company and the Unitholders to convert from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware corporation (the “Corporate Conversion”);

WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the Corporate Conversion, the parties hereto desire to amend, among other things, Section 3.07 of the LLC Agreement to (i) revise the approval required to effect an Entity Conversion in certain circumstances, (ii) define the term “Initial Public Offering” for the purposes of Section 3.07 only, and (iii) provide that, upon an Entity Conversion, the LLC Agreement shall terminate;

WHEREAS, the undersigned Unitholders meet the requirements of Section 14.01(b) of the LLC Agreement.

1. Amendment of LLC Agreement.

(a) For all purposes, effective as of the date hereof, each and every reference to the word “Unit,” “Units,” “unit,” “units,” “Unitholder” and “Unitholders” in the LLC Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the words “Share,” “Shares,” “share,” “shares,” “Shareholder” and “Shareholders” respectively, except where such words are used as part of the title of a preexisting agreement or plan of the Company in the LLC Agreement.

(b) Effective as of the date hereof, Section 3.07 of the LLC Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Notwithstanding the provisions of any other Section of this ARTICLE III, in connection with an Initial Public Offering, the Company (subject to the prior written approval of the Majority Class C Investors), by vote of at least a majority of the Representatives serving thereon, has the power under this ARTICLE III to cause the conversion or reorganization of the Company and its Subsidiaries into another entity form (including a corporation) (an “Entity Conversion”) without the approval of the Unitholders, as long as such Entity Conversion does not alter the relative rights of the Unitholders other than as set forth in a plan of conversion approved by Members holding (i) greater than fifty percent (50%) of all outstanding Common Units and Preferred Units, voting together as a single Class on an as-converted into Common Unit basis, (ii) at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66²/3%) of the total outstanding Preferred Units and (iii) the Super Majority Class C Investors (together, the “Requisite Members”). Each of the Unitholders agrees that, upon Board approval of an Entity Conversion, he, she or it shall take all necessary and desirable actions to cause the Entity Conversion as approved by the Board to occur, including by (i) consenting to, voting for and raising no objections against the Entity Conversion or the process or transactions pursuant to which the Entity Conversion is arranged, (ii) executing any documents (including a stockholders agreement or similar document) necessary to prevent the Entity Conversion from altering the relative rights of the Unitholders with respect to the ownership of Units or other resulting equity interests, and (iii) waiving any potential claim, including any claim for breach of fiduciary duty, which he, she or it may have against any Representative, any Member, the Company, its officers or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing to the extent arising out of or relating to any Entity Conversion, including any Board authorization thereof. Each of the Unitholders agrees that, upon the effectiveness of an Entity Conversion, this Agreement shall automatically terminate without any further action required by the Board or the Unitholders. For the purposes of this Section 3.07 only, the term “Initial Public Offering” shall mean the first sale of the Company’s Common Units (or, in the event of conversion to a corporation or other entity, the first sale of the successor entity’s common stock or other equivalent security) in a firm commitment underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.”

in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.
