Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that the relative rights, powers, preferences, limitations and restrictions with respect to the Series A Preferred Interests shall be as set forth in the Series A Preferred Annex to the A&R Company LLC Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of the A&R Company LLC Agreement.

3.Company Representations. The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Investor as of the date hereof and as of the date, if any, of each purchase and sale of Additional Investor Preferred Interests, that:

(a)Existence; Power and Authority. The Company (a) is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and (b) has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and consummate the Company’s issuance and sale of the Investor Preferred Interests to the Investors hereunder.

(b)No Contravention. Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Company’s issuance and sale of the Investor Preferred Interests to the Investors hereunder (i) conflicts with any provision of the Company’s certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement, (ii) violates, in any material respect, any law, rule or regulation by which the Company is a party or any of its assets are bound or (iii) conflicts with, in any material respect, or results in a material default under any contract or other agreement to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its assets are bound.

(c)Governmental Authorization; Other Consents. Other than the filing by CAPL of a Form 8-K with respect to the Company's issuance of the Series A Preferred Interests and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the A&R Company LLC Agreement by the parties thereto (which filing will attach such agreements as exhibits thereto), no approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any governmental authority or any other person is necessary or required in connection with the execution or delivery by the Company of this Agreement or the consummation of the Company’s issuance and sale of the Investor Preferred Interests to the Investors hereunder.

(d)Authorization; Execution; Binding Effect. The Company has duly authorized, executed and delivered this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

3

(e)Capitalization. The authorized limited liability company interests in the Company consist solely of an unlimited number of Common Interests (as such term is defined in the Current Company LLC Agreement) and, upon effectiveness of the A&R Company LLC Agreement on the date hereof, Series A Preferred Interests (as such term is defined under the A&R Company LLC Agreement). As of the date hereof, all of the issued and outstanding Common Interests are held by LGP, and no Series A Preferred Interests are issued or outstanding before giving effect to the issuance of the Initial Preferred Interests hereunder. The Company has not issued any outstanding options, warrants, rights (including any preemptive rights), subscriptions, phantom equity or other equity interests, equity equivalents or equity-based awards or rights, bonds, debentures or other indebtedness having the right to vote, or any other binding commitment or obligation, that would require the Company to issue or sell any limited liability company interests or other equity interests, or any securities or obligations convertible into or exchangeable for any limited liability company interests or other equity interests, and no person has any right to subscribe for or acquire from it any limited liability company interests or other equity interests.

(f)Valid Issuance. The Initial Preferred Interests have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Company and, when issued hereunder, will be duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid. When and if the Company and any Investor agrees, pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof, to the number of Additional Investor Preferred Interests to be issued and sold to such Investor, and the price to be paid by such Investor per Additional Investor Preferred Interest, such Additional Investor Preferred Interests, upon issuance thereof, shall be duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid.

(g)No Additional Representations. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 2, the Company has not made and shall not make, and expressly disclaims, any representations or warranties of any kind or nature, whether express or implied, as to the Company or its business or assets, the Investor Preferred Interests, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4.Investor Representations. Each Investor, acting individually and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to the Company as of the date hereof and as of the date, if any, of each purchase and sale of Additional Investor Preferred Interests by such Investor, as follows:

(d)Authorization; Execution; Binding Effect. Such Investor has duly authorized, executed and delivered this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against such Investor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(e)Investment Representations.

(i)Such Investor is acquiring the applicable Investor Preferred Interests for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with any distribution thereof. Such Investor understands that the applicable Investor Preferred Interests have not been, nor will be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of such Investor's investment intent and the accuracy of such Investor’s representations set forth herein.

(ii)Such Investor understands that all or any part of the applicable Investor Preferred Interests may not be offered or sold except pursuant to effective registration statements under the Securities Act or pursuant to applicable exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable state laws.

(iii)Such Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated under the Securities Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(iv)Such Investor has no contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person (as defined in the A&R Company LLC Agreement) to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any of the applicable Investor Preferred Interests to such person or any other Person (or any part thereof or right with respect thereto), and such Investor has no present plans to enter into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement.

(v)Such Investor understands that the applicable Investor Preferred Interests have not been, and will not be, approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange

5

Commission or by any other federal or state agency, and that no such agency has passed on the accuracy or adequacy of any disclosures made to such Investor by the Company. No federal or state governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Investor Preferred Interests or an investment in the Company.

(vi)Such Investor further acknowledges and agrees that the ability to transfer the Investor Preferred Interests will be subject to restrictions contained in the A&R Company LLC Agreement, including the Series A Preferred Annex. Such Investor recognizes that there will not be any public trading market for the Investor Preferred Interests and, as a result, such Investor may be unable to sell or dispose of the Investor Preferred Interests. Such Investor further acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall have no obligation to register the Investor Preferred Interests.

(vii)Such Investor has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the applicable Investor Preferred Interests and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Investor specifically acknowledges its understanding that there are significant risks in connection with such Investor’s prospective investment in the Company, including (a) general business risks, including the effects of a recession, and (b) that the Managing Member controls the management and operations of the Company, such that such Investor will have no control over the direction and future operations of the Company. Such Investor understands that it must bear the economic risk of its investment in the applicable Investor Preferred Interests indefinitely and is able to bear such risk and is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(f)Tax Matters. Such Investor has had the opportunity to consult its own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences to it of the purchase, receipt and ownership of the applicable Investor Preferred Interests, including, in each case, the tax consequences under any tax laws and the possible effects of changes in such tax laws with respect to such tax consequences or otherwise. Such Investor acknowledges that none of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates or any of their respective successors, beneficiaries, and assigns and their past and present directors, managers, shareholders, members, partners, officers, employees, and agents (including, without limitation, their attorneys) makes or has made any representations or warranties to such Investor regarding the tax consequences to such Investor of the purchase, receipt or ownership of the applicable Investor Preferred Interests, including, in each case, the tax consequences under any tax laws and the possible effects of changes in such tax laws.

(g)Inspection. Such Investor acknowledges that it has conducted, to its satisfaction, its own independent investigation of the Company. In entering into this Agreement and making the determination to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby, such Investor has relied on the results of its own independent investigation and analysis. Without limiting the foregoing, such Investor acknowledges that (A) the Company has made available, a reasonable time prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) information concerning the Company sufficient for such Investor to make an informed decision regarding an investment in the Company, and an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the Series A Preferred Interests; and (ii) the opportunity to obtain any additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense deemed necessary by such Investor to verify the accuracy

6

of the information provided, and such Investor has received all such additional information requested; and (B) such Investor has not relied on the Company or any of its affiliates, officers, employees or representatives in connection with his or her investigation or the accuracy of the information provided or in making any investment decision.

5. Reliance by the Company. Each Investor understands the meanings of the representations and warranties made by such Investor in this Agreement and understands and acknowledges that the Company is relying on such representations and warranties in determining whether the issuance contemplated hereby is eligible for exemption from the registration requirements contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

6.Further Assurances. The Company and each Investor shall promptly execute and deliver such documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and take such other actions as may be necessary or desirable in order to consummate, implement, affirm or ratify the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.Governing Law. All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, validity and enforcement of this Agreement, including all claims (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to the Company's issuance and sale of the applicable Investor Preferred Interests to each Investor pursuant to this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any claim or cause or action based upon, arising out of, or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that this Agreement has been entered into in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708.

8.Jurisdiction and Venue. Any proceeding involving any party to this Agreement arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, in which case, in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware) (together with the appellate courts thereof, the “Chosen Courts”) and each of the parties hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for the purpose of any such proceeding. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to assert (a) any objection which it may ever have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding in any Chosen Court, (b) any claim that any such proceeding brought in any Chosen Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (c) any claim that any Chosen Court does not have personal jurisdiction with respect to such proceeding.
