At any time a share of Common Stock is redeemed, repurchased, acquired, cancelled or terminated by GPC Inc., one (1) Unit registered in the name of GPC Inc. will automatically be cancelled for no consideration by the Partnership so that the aggregate number of Units held by the General Partner and GPC Inc. at all times equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

4.5 Incentive Plans. At any time GPC Inc. issues a share of Common Stock pursuant to an Incentive Plan (whether pursuant to the exercise of a stock option or the grant of a restricted share award or otherwise), the following shall occur: (a) GPC Inc. shall be deemed to contribute to the capital of the Partnership an amount of cash equal to the current per share market price of a share of Common Stock on the date such share is issued (or, if earlier, the date the related option is exercised) and the Capital Account of GPC Inc. shall be adjusted accordingly; (b) the Partnership shall be deemed to purchase from GPC Inc. a share of Common Stock for an amount of cash equal to the amount of cash deemed contributed by GPC Inc. to the Partnership in clause (a) above (and such share is deemed delivered to its owner under the Incentive Plan); (c) the net proceeds (including the amount of any payments made on a loan with respect to a stock purchase award) received by GPC Inc. with respect to such share, if any, shall be concurrently transferred and paid to the Partnership (and such net proceeds so transferred shall not constitute a capital contribution); and (d) the Partnership shall issue to GPC Inc. one (1) Unit registered in the name of GPC Inc. The Partnership shall retain any net proceeds that are paid directly to the Partnership.

4.6 Offerings of Common Stock. At any time GPC Inc. issues a share of Common Stock other than pursuant to an Incentive Plan, the net proceeds received by GPC Inc. with respect to such share, if any, shall be concurrently contributed to the Partnership and the Partnership shall issue to GPC Inc. one (1) Unit registered in the name of GPC Inc; provided that, this Section 4.6 shall not apply to any shares of Common Stock issued by GPC Inc. in connection with (A) any direct or indirect business combination or acquisition transaction involving GPC Inc., (B) any joint venture or strategic partnership entered into by GPC Inc. or (C) to financial institutions, commercial lenders, brokers/finders or any similar party, or to respective designees, in connection with the incurrence or guarantee of indebtedness by GPC Inc. or any of its subsidiaries.

4.7 Registered Partners. The Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a Person registered on its records as the owner of Units for all purposes and shall not be

bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the Act.

ARTICLE 5

DISTRIBUTIONS; PARTNERSHIP ALLOCATIONS; TAX MATTERS

5.1 Distributions Prior to Dissolution. (a) Except as provided in Section 10.3 and Section 5.1(b), all distributions on and after the date of this Agreement shall be made to the Partners in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

(b) Available Cash shall be distributed to the Partners at the following times and in the following amounts:

(i) Subject to the provisions of the outstanding indebtedness of the Partnership, on or before the fifth business day prior to the date an estimated tax payment is due for a Partner, Available Cash shall be distributed to each Partner in an amount equal to the product of (1) the highest combined marginal individual or corporate federal, state and local income tax rates ((i) including, to the extent applicable, if any, alternative minimum tax and (ii) taking into account any federal tax benefit for a deduction for state and local taxes) applicable to the taxable income of the Partnership allocated to any Partner and in effect at the time of the distribution without regard to the identity or tax status of the Partners receiving the allocation of taxable income, times (2) the remainder, if any, of (A) the product of 25, 50, 75 or 100 percent for the first (1st), second (2nd), third (3rd) or fourth (4th) required estimated tax installment payment for the fiscal year, respectively, times (a) the cumulative (as annualized) taxable income to be allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.3 for such fiscal year less (b) the cumulative taxable loss that has been allocated to such Partner to the extent such loss has not previously reduced taxable income pursuant to this provision, as estimated by the General Partner in good faith as of the day for payment, minus (B) the sum of the cumulative distributions to such Partner pursuant to this provision for each prior required estimated tax installment payment during such fiscal year and the cumulative distributions made to the Partners pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(iii)(B) to the extent such distributions have not previously reduced distributions pursuant to this Section 5.1(b)(i); and

(ii) Upon notice from the General Partner, the Partners or the Partnership, as the case may be, will reimburse the other for any difference between the amount of distributions made to the Partners pursuant to Section 5.1(b)(i) and the amount of distributions that would have been made based on the actual taxable income reported on the Partnership’s tax return for such fiscal year (the “Reimbursed Amount”). The General Partner shall provide notice to the Partners of the Reimbursed Amount as soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year of the Partnership. Such Reimbursed Amount shall be effected by adjusting distributions made to Partners in the next succeeding fiscal year and, thereafter, by the Reimbursed Amount until the Reimbursed Amount is zero; and

(iii) Any remaining Available Cash shall be distributed to the Partners at such times and in such amounts as the General Partner shall determine as follows:

(A) First, 100% to the General Partner and GPC Inc. in proportion to their Percentage Interests until such Partners receive aggregate distributions equal to the Catch Up Amount; and

(B) Thereafter, to the Partners in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

5.2 Partnership Allocations.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement, for purposes of this Agreement, and for federal, state and local income tax purposes, all items of Profits and Losses shall be determined with respect to each taxable year of the Partnership as of the end thereof, and allocated to the Partners in accordance with their then Percentage Interests, except that Profits and all Losses from the sale or exchange of substantially all of the assets of the Partnership shall, in any event, be allocated to and among the Partners, as the case may be, so as to produce Capital Accounts for the Partners equal to the amounts, sequence and priority that would be distributed to the Partners if all the Partnership Assets were distributed to the Partners in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1(b)(iii) of this Agreement. Each Partner’s Percentage Interest shall constitute its interest in partnership profits for purposes of determining such Partner’s share of nonrecourse liabilities of the Partnership under Treas. Reg. § 1.752-3(a)(3). Accordingly, as of the date of this Agreement, the liabilities shall be allocated among the Partners based on each Partner’s Percentage Interest.

(b) Notwithstanding Subsection 5.2(a):

(i) Minimum Gain and Hypothetical Capital Accounts. For purposes of complying with Treasury Regulations relating to tax allocation, the Partnership’s “minimum gain,” “minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt” and the Partners’ hypothetically adjusted Capital Accounts (“Hypothetical Capital Accounts”) must be determined from time to time. The amount of minimum gain or minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt is determined in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(d) or § 1.704-2(i), as the case may be, by computing, with respect to each nonrecourse liability of the Partnership, the amount of gain (of whatever character), if any, that would be realized by the Partnership if it disposed of (in a taxable transaction) the Partnership property subject to such liability in full satisfaction thereof, and by then aggregating the amounts so computed. A Partners’ Hypothetical Capital Account shall equal its true Capital Account, increased by any amount that such Partner is treated as being obligated to restore under Treas. Reg. § 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(c) (including the Partner’s share of minimum gain, computed as provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(g), and of minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt, computed as provided in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(i)(5)), and decreased by the items described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d), clauses (4), (5) and (6). For purposes of determining each Partner’s share of minimum gain or minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt, any distributions funded with the proceeds of nonrecourse liabilities shall be treated as allocable to the nonrecourse liabilities, if any, that were incurred by the Partnership in connection with such distributions.

(ii) Qualified Income Offset. A Partner who unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation, or distribution described in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d), clauses (4), (5) and (6), that creates a deficit in his Hypothetical Capital Account shall be allocated items of

income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Partnership income, including gross income, and gain for such year) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit as quickly as possible.

(iii) Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in the Partnership’s minimum gain or minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt during a Partnership taxable year, any Partner with a share of such minimum gain at the beginning of such year shall be allocated, before any other allocation is made of Partnership items for such taxable year, items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Partner’s share of such decrease in minimum gain in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2(f) and § 1.704-2(i) (the “Minimum Gain Chargeback”). The Minimum Gain Chargeback allocated in any taxable year shall consist first of gains recognized from the disposition of items of Partnership property subject to one or more nonrecourse liabilities of the Partnership to the extent of the decrease in Minimum Gain attributable to the disposition of such items of property, with the remainder of the Minimum Gain Chargeback, if any, made up of a pro rata portion of the Partnership’s other items of income and gain for that year.

(iv) Special Limitation on Losses Allocated to a Partner. No loss or deduction shall be allocated to a Partner to the extent that such allocation would reduce such Partner’s Hypothetical Capital Account below zero, and such loss or deduction shall instead be allocated to the other Partners in proportion to the positive balances of their respective Hypothetical Capital Accounts.

(v) Restoration. If any items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be specially allocated pursuant to Paragraph (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Subsection 5.2(b) then as quickly as possible thereafter (but not in such a manner as to create or increase a deficit in any Partner’s Hypothetical Capital Account) items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be specially allocated to the Partners so as to return all Capital Accounts to such balances as they would have had if no such special allocations had been made pursuant to Paragraph (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Subsection 5.2(b).

(vi) Rule of Construction. This Section 5.2 is intended to satisfy the rules of Treas. Reg. § 1.704-1(b) and the rules for allocations attributable to nonrecourse liabilities set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.704-2 and should be so construed.

5.3 Tax Allocations; Code Section 704(c).

(a) For income tax purposes only, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as the corresponding items of Profits and Losses and specially allocated items are allocated for Capital Account purposes.

(b) In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Partnership shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value.

(c) In the event the Gross Asset Value of any asset of the Partnership shall be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(d) Any elections or other decisions relating to such Section 704(c) allocations and “reverse Section 704(c) allocations” shall be made by the Partners in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed by the Partners, the Partnership shall use the “traditional allocation method” for such allocations, in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.704-3(b). Section 704(c) allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 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 Partner’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

5.4 Accounting Method. The books of the Partnership (for both tax and financial reporting purposes) shall be kept on an accrual basis.

5.5 Withholding. Each Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold and to pay over any taxes payable by the Partnership or any of its Affiliates as a result of such Partner’s participation in the Partnership; if and to the extent that the Partnership shall be required to withhold any such taxes, such Partner shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Partnership as of the time such withholding is required to be paid, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution to such Partner to the extent that the Partner is entitled to receive a distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Partner for any period exceeds the distributions to which such Partner is entitled for such period, the amount of such excess shall be considered a demand loan from the Partnership to such Partner, with interest at an interest rate of 5% compounded annually, which interest shall be treated as an item of Partnership income until discharged by such Partner by repayment, which may be made in the sole discretion of the General Partner out of distributions to which such Partner would otherwise be subsequently entitled. The withholdings referred to in this Section 5.5 shall be made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under the applicable tax law unless the General Partner receives documentation, satisfactory to the General Partner, to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable.

5.6 Tax Treatment of Return Amounts. All Return Amounts shall constitute guaranteed payments for the use of capital, within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code.

5.7 Distribution by Opco. The General Partner shall cause Opco to make distributions of cash to the Partnership (to the extent funds are legally available therefor and permitted by applicable debt instruments) necessary for the Partnership to make the distributions required under this Article 5.

By executing this Agreement, each Partner shall be deemed to have consented to any exercise by General Partner of any of the foregoing powers.

6.4 Restrictions on General Partner Authority. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner shall not have authority, on behalf of the Partnership, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written approval of the Limited Partners and except in connection with actions permitted by this Agreement or as otherwise contemplated hereby:

(ii) to elect to dissolve the Partnership, except pursuant to a sale of substantially all assets of the Partnership or otherwise as expressly permitted herein.

6.5 Compensation.

Any Partner (other than BCP in such capacity) (the “Interested Party”) may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, whether presently existing or hereafter created, and neither the Partnership nor any Partner (including BCP) other than the Interested Party shall have any rights in or to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom.

Such successor or personal representative, however, shall become a substituted limited partner only upon compliance with the requirements of Section 9.6 hereof with respect to a transferee of a Partnership Interest.

(i) If any Xxxxxx Partner (a “Xxxxxx Selling Partner”) proposes to transfer any Partnership Interests to any Person (other than as provided in Section 9.4(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv)) pursuant to a bona fide written offer to purchase such Partnership Interests (a “Bona Fide Offer”), then such Xxxxxx Selling Partner shall first give to the Partnership and to the GPC Partners a written notice (a “Notice of Sale”) setting forth in reasonable detail the terms and conditions under which the Xxxxxx Selling Partner proposes to sell such Partnership Units pursuant to the Bona Fide Offer.

(ii) Upon receipt of a Notice of Sale from a Xxxxxx Selling Partner, the Partnership shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Xxxxxx Selling Partner and the GPC Partners within 30 days after the date of the Notice of Sale, to elect to purchase, directly or through a designee, all or a portion (subject to (iv) below) of the Partnership Units proposed to be sold by the Xxxxxx Selling Partner at a purchase price equal to the purchase price per unit specified in the Notice of Sale (the “Specified Price”).

(iii) In the event that the Partnership shall elect not to purchase, or direct to an assignee the purchase of, all of the Partnership Interests subject to the Notice of Sale, the Partnership shall so notify the GPC Partners in writing (the “Partnership Notice”) within 30 days after the date of the Notice of Sale. In such event, any GPC Partner shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Xxxxxx Selling Partner within 20 days after receipt of the Partnership Notice, to elect to purchase any or all Partnership Interests not purchased by the Partnership that are proposed to be sold by the Xxxxxx Selling Partner at the Specified Price (the “Purchasing Partner”). Such notice shall state the percentage of Partnership Interests to be purchased by the Purchasing Partner and that the Purchasing Partner shall purchase such Partnership Interests within 60 days of the date of receipt of the Partnership Notice.

(iv) If the Partnership and the GPC Partners do not exercise their purchase rights in the manner and within the time periods provided in this Section 9.4(a) with respect to all of the Partnership Interests offered in the Notice of Sale, the Xxxxxx Selling Partner may sell all, but not less than all, of the Partnership Units subject to the Notice of Sale to any Person, for not less than the Specified Price and upon the terms set forth in the Notice of Sale. Any such sale must be consummated within 120 days of the date of the Notice of Sale.

(v) Any Partnership Units not sold pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (i) through (iv) above shall again be subject to the restrictions contained in this Agreement and shall not thereafter be transferred, except in compliance with this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Xxxxxx Partner and, commencing on the anniversary of the date hereof, GP Corp shall be

permitted to Transfer all or any portion of its respective Partnership Interests, without the consent of any other Partner, to (i) any Affiliate of such Xxxxxx Partner, (ii) any family member of DCG and any trusts created for their benefit, (iii) any employee of such Xxxxxx Partner or its Affiliates and (iv) any Person in accordance with Section 9.4(a) hereto.

9.5 Satisfactory Written Assignment Required. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both the Partnership and the General Partners shall be entitled to treat the transferor of a Partnership Interest as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to it, until such time as a written assignment or other evidence of the consummation of a Transfer that conforms to the requirements of this Article 9 and is reasonably satisfactory to the General Partner has been received by and recorded on the books of the Partnership, at which time the Transfer shall become effective for purposes of this Agreement.

9.6 Transferee’s Rights. Any purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest which is not in compliance with this Agreement is hereby declared to be null and void and of no force and effect whatsoever. A permitted transferee of any Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 9.1, 9.3 and 9.4 hereof shall be entitled to receive distributions of cash or other property from the Partnership and to receive allocations of the income, gains, credits, deductions, profits and losses of the Partnership attributable to such Partnership Interest after the effective date of the Transfer but shall not become a Partner unless and until admitted pursuant to Section 9.7 hereof.

9.7 Transferees Admitted as Partners. The assignee or transferee of any Partnership Interest shall be admitted as a Partner only upon the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(a) A duly executed and acknowledged written instrument of Transfer approved by the General Partner and either a copy of this Agreement duly executed by the transferee or an instrument of assumption in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner setting forth the transferee’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement have been delivered to the Partnership.

(b) The transferee has paid any fees and reimbursed the Partnership for any expenses paid by the Partnership in connection with the Transfer and admission.

The effective date of an admission of a Partner and the withdrawal of the transferring Partner, if any, shall be the first day which is the last business day of a calendar month to occur following the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions.

9.8 Additional Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, in no event may any Transfer of a Unit or other interest in the Partnership be made by any Limited Partner or assignee or transferee if:

(i) such Transfer is made to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own such Unit or other interest in the Partnership;

(ii) such Transfer would require the registration of such transferred Unit or other interest in the Partnership or of any Class of Unit or other interest in the Partnership pursuant to any applicable United States federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) or other foreign securities laws or would constitute a non-exempt distribution pursuant to applicable state securities laws;

(iii) such Transfer would cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to the regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor at Section 2510.3-101 of Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or any successor regulations;

(iv) such Transfer would cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to become “plan assets” of any benefit plan investor within the meaning of regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor at Section 2510.3-101 of Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or any successor regulations, or to be regulated under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time; or

(v) to the extent requested by the General Partner, the Partnership does not receive such legal and/or tax opinions and written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such assignee’s or transferee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement) that are in a form satisfactory to the General Partner, as determined in the General Partner’s sole discretion.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Partner shall Transfer any interest in the Partnership if such Transfer would cause the Partnership to be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” as that term is defined in Section 7704 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS

13.1 Investment Purpose.

If the parties to the dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the International Chamber of Commerce shall make the appointment. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer and shall conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a), the General Partner may bring, or may cause the Partnership to bring, on behalf of the General Partner or the Partnership or on behalf of one or more Partners, an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this clause (b), each Partner (i) expressly consents to the application of clause (c) of this Section 14.3 to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate, and (iii) irrevocably appoints the General Partner as such Partner’s agent for service of process in connection with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service of process upon such agent, who shall promptly advise such Partner of any such service of process, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Partner in any such action or proceeding.

(c) EACH PARTNER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF COURTS LOCATED IN HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION 14.3, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the fora designated by this clause (c) have a reasonable relation to this Agreement, and to the parties’ relationship with one another.
