W I T N E S S E T H

In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.	Grants.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OpCo, as amended or amended and restated from time to time (the “Operating Agreement”) (all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Operating Agreement, unless otherwise specified):

(i) OpCo hereby grants to the Member, as of the Grant Date, 200,000 LTIP Units, and

(ii) the Company hereby grants to the Member, as of the Grant Date, in tandem with the LTIP Units, 200,000 Non-Economic Shares (within the meaning of the Plan), which shall consist of 200,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Tandem Common Shares”).

The LTIP Notional Amount for each LTIP Unit granted hereunder shall equal $10.00. The LTIP Units are “Other Equity-Based Awards” within the meaning of Section 9 of the Plan. The Tandem Common Shares are Restricted Stock awards as set forth under Section 7 of the Plan.

(b) 100,000 LTIP Units, along with an equal number of Tandem Common Shares, each granted hereunder, shall be Series A LTIP Units and, together with such number of Tandem Common Shares, shall be subject solely to service-based vesting conditions (the “Time-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards”) and 100,000 LTIP Units, along with an equal number of Tandem Common Shares, each granted hereunder shall be Series A LTIP Units and, together with such number of Tandem Common Shares, shall be subject to both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions (the “Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards”). The date on which any applicable service-based vesting

conditions are scheduled to be satisfied is referred to below as the applicable “Service-Vesting Date”, the date on which any applicable performance-based vesting conditions are satisfied is referred to below as the “Performance-Vesting Date”, and the date that all applicable service-based and performance-based vesting conditions (other than the condition that an LTIP Unit become an Equitized LTIP Unit) are satisfied (or deemed satisfied) is referred to as the “Vesting Date”.

2.	Vesting.

(a) Time-Vesting LTIP Awards. The Time-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards shall vest in equal annual installments over the five (5)-year period commencing on February 10, 2020 (the “Vesting Commencement Date”), provided that no Termination of Employment (as defined in the Plan) has occurred prior to the applicable Service-Vesting Date.

(b) Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards.

(i) Performance Condition. Subject to the Performance-Vesting Service Condition (as defined in clause (ii) below), the percentage of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards specified in the table below shall vest on the first Year-End Trading Date (as defined below) following the Vesting Commencement Date and on or prior to the Seven-Year End Date (as defined below) that the 10-Day VWAP (as defined below) meets or exceeds the applicable price per share specified below (each, a “Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle”), which first Year-End Trading Date shall be considered the Performance-Vesting Date in respect of the applicable portion of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards. “Seven-Year End Date” means the Mandatory Conversion Date (as defined in the First Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, as in effect on the Vesting Commencement Date and without regard to any amendments thereto following the Grant Date (the “Grant Date Articles”)). “Year-End Trading Date” means the last “Trading Day” (as defined in the Grant Date Articles) of the relevant “Financial Year” (as defined in the Grant Date Articles). “10-Day VWAP” means the Dividend Price (as defined in the Grant Date Articles); provided that (i) the reference therein to the relevant “Dividend Year” shall instead be replaced with a reference to the relevant Financial Year and (ii) the final sentence of the definition of Average Price (as defined in the Grant Date Articles, which term is used in the definition of “Dividend Price”) shall be deleted and replaced with the following sentence: “If the Average Price cannot be calculated for that security on that date on any of the foregoing bases, the Average Price of that security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined in good faith by the Grantee and the Board.”


Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle	Vesting Percentage
$11.50		25	%
$13.50		25	%
$15.50		25	%
$17.50		25	%

A-2

For the avoidance of doubt, a Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle need only be satisfied once and, except as set forth in Section 2(e) or 2(f) below, vesting will not occur for any portion of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards unless and until the Performance-Vesting Service Condition is also satisfied with respect to such portion of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards.

(ii) Service Condition. The service-based vesting condition shall be satisfied with respect to 50% of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards on the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date and 50% on the seventh (7^th) anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, provided that no Termination of Employment has occurred prior to the applicable Service-Vesting Date (the “Performance-Vesting Service Condition”). Notwithstanding the foregoing; provided that the Performance-Vesting Service Condition has been satisfied in respect of the relevant Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards, the Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle may be satisfied (or deemed satisfied pursuant to Section 2(f)(ii)) after Termination of Employment due to death or Disability, but in no event later than the Seven-Year End Date. To the extent that any Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle has not been satisfied (or deemed satisfied pursuant to Section 2(f)(ii)) on or prior to the Seven-Year End Date, any then remaining unvested Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards and related Tandem Common Shares shall be immediately forfeited and canceled without consideration as of such Seven-Year End Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or in the Plan to the contrary, in the event that, prior to the applicable Vesting Date, the Member incurs a Termination of Employment for Cause (as defined in the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement among the Company, OpCo and the Member, dated as of February 10, 2020, as amended or amended and restated (the “Employment Agreement”) or due to the Member’s voluntary resignation without Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), all Unvested Awards (as defined below) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be forfeited and canceled without consideration. The Member’s LTIP Capital Account with respect to an LTIP Unit that has been forfeited, canceled or terminated shall be treated as provided in Section 3.02(c)(v) of the Operating Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Unvested Award” means any LTIP Unit and the related Non-Economic Shares granted to the Member hereunder (and any Award (as defined in the Plan) into which such LTIP Unit and the related Non-Economic Shares has been converted pursuant to Section 4(c) of the Plan or Section 2(f) of this Agreement), in each case that remains subject to any service-based or performance-based vesting conditions set forth in this Section 2 (other than the condition that such LTIP Unit become an Equitized LTIP Unit).

(e) In the event that the Member incurs a Termination of Employment on or prior to the applicable Vesting Date due to a Termination of Employment by the Company not for Cause or a resignation with Good Reason, all outstanding Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount (as defined in Section 5 of this Agreement)) shall immediately vest in full, and the Vesting Date in respect of all then outstanding and previously unvested LTIP Units shall be the date of the Member’s Termination of Employment. In the event that the Member incurs a Termination of Employment on or

A-3

prior to the applicable Vesting Date due to (i) the Member’s Disability or (ii) the Member’s death, the service-based vesting condition for all Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) shall be deemed satisfied as follows: (A) in the case of the Time-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards, the LTIP Units shall vest in respect of the one (1)- year vesting period in which the Member’s Termination of Employment occurs and, as applicable, the immediately following one (1)-year vesting period (i.e., collectively, an additional forty percent (40%) of the original grant of Time-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards shall vest, assuming the Member’s Termination of Employment occurred during the four (4)-year period commencing on the Vesting Commencement Date) and (B) in the case of the Performance-Vested Series A LTIP Awards, the service-based vesting condition shall be deemed satisfied on a pro-rata basis based on the number of full or partial years that have elapsed between the Vesting Commencement Date and the date of the Termination of Employment, plus one (1) additional year of service; provided, however, that vesting will not occur for any portion of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) unless and until the applicable Seven-Year Share Price Hurdles are achieved (or deemed achieved pursuant to Section 2(f)(ii)) on or prior to the Seven-Year End Date. Any remaining Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards that have not vested on or prior to the Seven-Year End Date shall be immediately forfeited and canceled without consideration as of the Seven-Year End Date. For example, in the case of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards, if the Termination of Employment due to death or Disability occurs on the twenty (20)-month anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, then such LTIP Units shall vest as follows: (A) 100% (3/3^rds) of the outstanding Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards scheduled to vest on the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date shall remain outstanding, subject to achievement of such goals on or prior to the Seven-Year End Date, and (B) approximately 43% (3/7^ths) of the outstanding Seven-Year Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards scheduled to vest on the seventh (7^th) anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date shall remain outstanding, subject to achievement of such goals on or prior to the Seven- Year End Date.

(f) Change in Control.

(i) Upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), all outstanding Time-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards shall immediately vest in full.

(ii) Upon a Change in Control, in the case of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards, all Seven-Year Share Price Hurdles shall be deemed satisfied, and all Performance- Vesting Series A LTIP Awards that remain subject to the Performance-Vesting Service Condition may either (A) remain outstanding or (B) be converted in accordance with Section 2(f)(iii) into an award in respect of stock of, or other equity interests in, the acquirer (or one of its Affiliates) based on the value of such Unvested Award (which value, in the case of an Equitized LTIP Unit, shall be determined as if redeemed for a share of Class A Common Stock, in the case of all such LTIP Units on a one-for-one basis and, in the case of a Non-Equitized LTIP Unit, shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.02(c)(v) of the Operating Agreement at the time of such Change in Control) and, following conversion, any such award will be considered an Unvested Award to the extent provided in this Agreement. In the event that the Member

A-4

incurs a Termination of Employment following the Change in Control under any circumstance set forth in Section 2(e), all Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) shall immediately vest in full, and the Vesting Date shall be the date of the Member’s Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely to the extent required to avoid taxation and penalties under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) shall be settled no later than March 15th of the calendar year (or, if applicable, two and one-half (2 1/2) months after the end of the applicable service recipient’s fiscal year) following the later of (1) the calendar year (or fiscal year, as applicable) in which the Change in Control occurs and (2) the calendar year (or fiscal year, as applicable) in which the Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) are no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, in the case of the Performance-Vesting Series A LTIP Awards, unless (A) either (1) the Unvested Awards remain outstanding following the Change in Control or (2) provision is made in connection with the Change in Control for assumption of Unvested Awards or substitution of such Unvested Awards for new awards (“Replacement Awards”) covering equity interests in a successor entity, with appropriate adjustments to the number of Unvested Awards, as determined by the Committee (as defined in the Plan) in accordance with Section 2(f)(ii) of this Agreement and Section 3.02(c)(v) of the Operating Agreement prior to the Change in Control pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii) of the Plan, and (B) the material terms and conditions of such Unvested Awards (other than the Seven-Year Share Price Hurdle) as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control are preserved following the Change in Control (including, without limitation, with respect to the schedule to satisfy the Performance-Vesting Service Condition, the intrinsic value of the Unvested Awards (or similar potential fair value in accordance with Section 3.02(c)(v) of the Operating Agreement, in the case of a Non-Equitized LTIP Unit), transferability of the Unvested Awards (and interests into which the Unvested Awards may be converted or exchanged) prior to and following the Change in Control and voting power in respect of the Unvested Awards), such Unvested Awards (and any related Unvested Distribution Amount) shall immediately vest in full upon such Change in Control, and the Vesting Date shall be the date of such Change in Control.

(iv) To the extent that the conversion, assumption or substitution of the Performance- Vesting Series A LTIP Awards and the related Tandem Common Shares in connection with a Change in Control would result in the Member incurring tax liability with respect to such Awards, subject to applicable law and any policies of the Company or any successor that impose trading restrictions (such as blackout periods), the Member shall be permitted to sell the number of securities subject to the replacement award that the Company determines to be necessary to satisfy the Member’s tax liability incurred in connection with such exchange. Any such securities that the Member is entitled to sell pursuant to this Section 2(f)(iv) will no longer be considered Unvested Awards. In connection with a Change in Control, if any Replacement Awards that are granted to the Member pursuant to Section 2(f)(iii) would be taxable to the Member as ordinary income rather than as long-term capital gains, the material terms and conditions of the Unvested

A-5

Awards shall not be deemed preserved unless the Member is granted an additional number of Replacement Awards to make the Member substantially whole for such incremental tax liability or the Member is otherwise compensated for such incremental tax liability. The amount of the incremental tax liability shall be determined using the tax rates in effect as of the date of the grant of such Replacement Awards.

3.	Representations and Warranties.

(a) The Company hereby represents and warrants that the Tandem Common Shares (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued, (ii) are fully paid and non-assessable, (iii) have been issued in compliance with applicable law, (iv) are not issued in breach or violation of any contract or preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights, (v) are free and clear of all Encumbrances except for (A) applicable transfer restrictions pursuant to applicable law, this Agreement, the Plan and the Operating Agreement and (B) the applicable vesting conditions pursuant to this Agreement and (vi) are uncertificated.

In the event of any such transfer pursuant to the foregoing, prior to the applicable Vesting Date, the Unvested Awards shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including with respect to vesting and forfeiture) that are applicable to Unvested Awards until such LTIP Units (and the related Tandem Common Shares) are no longer Unvested Awards. From and after the applicable Vesting Date, the LTIP Units (and the related Tandem Common Shares) shall be subject to Section 3.02(c)(iv) of the Operating Agreement and shall not be transferable by the Member, except as set forth in Article X of the Operating Agreement (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Tandem Common Shares, treating the Tandem Common Shares as LTIP Units).

Allocations and distributions with respect to the LTIP Units (including tax distributions) shall be handled in the manner specified in the Operating Agreement. The amount of any distributions credited under Section 4.01(b) of the Operating Agreement to the Member’s LTIP Units prior to the Vesting Date are referred to herein as “Unvested Distribution Amounts”.

The Member’s LTIP Capital Account that has been forfeited, canceled or terminated shall be treated as provided in Section 3.02(c)(v) of the Operating Agreement, as applicable. From and after the time that the LTIP Units become fully vested, the rights of the Member to receive distributions with respect to any LTIP Unit shall be governed by the Operating Agreement.

In order to do so, the Member must file an election with the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder (a “Section 83(b) Election”) with respect to the LTIP Units and related Non- Economic Shares within 30 days following the Grant Date, on a form attached hereto as Appendix B.

11.

Effect of Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided hereunder, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of any successor or successors of the Company or OpCo. The invalidity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall confer upon the Member any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Affiliates or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any such Affiliates to terminate the Member’s service at any time. Until shares of Class A Common Stock are actually delivered to the Member upon a Redemption or Direct Exchange pursuant to Article XI of the Operating Agreement, the Member shall not have any rights as a shareholder in respect of shares of Class A Common Stock; provided that the Member shall have all rights as a shareholder in respect of shares of Class B Common Stock.

12.

Laws Applicable to Construction; Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in the Operating Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of laws that could cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement with respect to LTIP Units and the related Tandem Common Shares, the Operating Agreement shall govern the Member’s rights and obligations with respect to OpCo under the Operating Agreement.

APPENDIX A

Investment Intent and Other Representations of the Member

Investment Intent.

The Member hereby represents and warrants that the LTIP Units (which, for purposes of this Appendix A, shall be deemed to include the related Tandem Common Shares) must be held for investment purposes and are not being received with a view to distribution thereof, and covenants and agrees to make such other reasonable and customary representations as requested by OpCo or the Company, as applicable, regarding matters relevant to compliance with applicable securities laws as are deemed necessary by counsel to OpCo or the Company, as applicable.

Other Representations.

The Member hereby represents and warrants to OpCo or the Company, as applicable, as follows:

(a) Access to Information. Because of the Member’s business relationship with the Company and its Affiliates and with the management of the Company and its Affiliates, the Member has had access to all material and relevant information concerning OpCo, the Company and their respective Affiliates, thereby enabling the Member to make an informed investment decision with respect to Member’s receipt of the LTIP Units, and all pertinent data and information requested by the Member from OpCo, the Company or their respective representatives, as the case may be, concerning the business and financial condition of OpCo, the Company or their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement have been furnished to the Member. The Member acknowledges that the Member has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers and obtain additional information from OpCo, the Company and their respective Affiliates and their representatives concerning the present and proposed business and financial condition of OpCo, the Company and their Affiliates.

(b) Financial Sophistication. The Member, either individually, or together with one or more financial advisors to which Member has access, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Member is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the acceptance of the LTIP Units.

(i) the LTIP Units represent a highly speculative investment, and there can be no assurance as to the success of OpCo, the Company or their respective Affiliates in their business;

(ii) the LTIP Units cannot be transferred except in very limited circumstances in accordance with the provisions of the Operating Agreement and the Award Agreement to which this Appendix A is attached (the “Award Agreement”), and at present, no market for the LTIP Units exists and it is not anticipated that a market for the LTIP Units will develop in the future;

A-1

(iii)

the LTIP Units may be worthless; and

(iv)

ownership of the LTIP Units may result in taxable income to the Member without a corresponding cash or in-kind distribution.

(d) Understanding the Nature of LTIP Units. The Member understands and agrees that:

(i) the LTIP Units will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities laws; they are being issued in reliance upon certain exemptions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and the representations and warranties of the Member contained herein are essential to any claim of exemption by OpCo and the Company under the Securities Act and such state laws;

(ii) the LTIP Units are “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act;

(iii) the Member may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber the LTIP Units except as allowed under the provisions of the Award Agreement, the Operating Agreement and the Plan;

(iv) only OpCo and the Company, as applicable, can register the LTIP Units under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, but it is not anticipated that the LTIP Units will be registered in any event;

(v) OpCo and the Company have not made any representations to the Member that OpCo or the Company, as applicable, will register the LTIP Units under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, or any representations with respect to compliance with any exemption therefrom;

(vi) the Member is aware of the conditions restricting the sale or transfer of the LTIP Units under the Operating Agreement, the Award Agreement, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; and

(vii) OpCo or the Company, as applicable, may, from time to time, make “stop transfer” notations in its transfer record to ensure compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, and any additional restrictions imposed by state securities administrators.

(e) No Brokers; Additional Representations. The Member acknowledges that:

(i) neither the Member nor anyone acting on the Member’s behalf has paid or will pay a commission or other remuneration to any person in connection with the acceptance of the LTIP Units; and

A-2

(ii) at the time and as a condition of delivery of documents evidencing the LTIP Units, the Member will be deemed to have made all the representations and warranties contained in this Appendix A with respect to such LTIP Units and may be required to make other representations concerning investment intent as a condition of the delivery of such LTIP Units by OpCo and the Company.
