EXCHANGE
Section 2.01. Exchanges. (a) Permissible Exchanges. (i) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Article 2, each Series B Member may, at any time and from time to time, elect to Exchange in one or more Exchanges up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Series B Member’s Series B Membership Interests, together with a corresponding number of Class B Shares, by delivering an Exchange Request to HII.
(ii) Upon delivery to HII, no Exchange Request may be revoked less than five Business Days prior to the scheduled Closing of the applicable Exchange (and HII shall have received notice of such revocation no later than such fifth Business Day) unless the Series B Member that has delivered such Exchange Request reimburses all out-of-pocket costs incurred
4
by HII or the Company with respect to such requested Exchange; provided, however, that a Series B Member that has delivered an Exchange Request shall be entitled without reimbursing such costs either (x) to revoke such Exchange Request at any time prior to the Closing of the applicable Exchange or (y) to delay the Closing of the requested Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.01(a)(ii), in each case, after the occurrence of one or more of the following events (the date of such Closing to be determined pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(i)): (A) any registration statement pursuant to which the Class A Shares were to be registered for such Series B Member at or immediately following the Closing shall have ceased to be effective pursuant to any action or inaction by the Commission; (B) HII shall have failed to cause any related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement necessary to effect such sale; (C) HII shall have exercised its right to defer, delay or suspend the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement (whether pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise), and such deferral, delay or suspension shall affect the ability of such Series B Member to have its Class A Shares registered at or immediately following the Closing; (D) HII shall have disclosed to such Series B Member any material non-public information concerning HII, the receipt of which results in such Series B Member being prohibited or restricted from selling Class A Shares at or immediately following the Closing without disclosure of such information (and HII does not permit disclosure); (E) any stop order relating to the registration statement pursuant to which the Class A Shares were to be registered by such Series B Member at or immediately following the Closing shall have been issued by the Commission; (F) the Closing, or the closing of the registered offering or the effectiveness of any registration, shall have been delayed due to any facts or circumstances; (G) there shall have occurred a material disruption in the securities markets generally or in the market or markets in which the Class A Shares are then traded; (H) there shall be in effect an injunction, a restraining order or a decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity that restrains or prohibits the Exchange of Series B Membership Interests (together with the corresponding number of Class B Shares) for Class A Shares or the registration or sale of any Class A Shares pursuant to a registration statement; or (I) HII shall have failed to comply in all material respects with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, and such failure shall have affected the ability of such Series B Member to consummate the registration or sale of Class A Shares in a manner not expressly contemplated in clauses (A) through (H) above; provided further, however, that in no event shall the Series B Member who is seeking to delay such Closing or revoke such Exchange Request and relying on any of the matters contemplated in clauses (A) through (I) above have controlled or intentionally influenced any facts, circumstances, or Persons in connection therewith (except in the good faith performance of his or her duties as an officer or director of HII) in order to provide such Series B Member with a basis for such delay or revocation.
(iii) Each Exchange Request shall set forth the number of Series B Membership Interests (together with the corresponding number of Class B Shares, which shall be determined pursuant to the Share Exchange Rate) such Series B Member wishes to Exchange for Class A Shares at the applicable Closing. If any Exchange Request is made in connection with a contemplated underwritten offering of Class A Shares and such underwritten offering includes any option being granted to the underwriters or any other Person to acquire an additional number of Class A Shares in connection with such offering, then (A) each Exchange Request related to
5
Series B Membership Interests to be Exchanged for Class A Shares that will be included in such underwritten offering shall also specify the maximum number of additional Series B Membership Interests that the Series B Member desires to have Exchanged in the event that such option is exercised (it being understood that (x) the party exercising such option may have the right to do so in part, in which case the additional Series B Membership Interests Exchanged in connection with such offering will be limited to the amount necessary to fulfill the delivery obligation with respect to the Class A Shares that are actually to be acquired upon exercise of such option, and (y) the allocation of Class A Shares to be acquired pursuant to an exercise of any such option among the Persons participating in such offering may not be known at the time of the delivery of the original Exchange Request, in which case the maximum number of additional Series B Membership Interests to potentially be Exchanged will be communicated to HII pursuant to a supplement to the Exchange Request delivered promptly following the time at which such determination is made, which supplement to the Exchange Request need not be delivered 20 days in advance of the applicable Exchange) and (B) the Closing of the Exchange of any additional Series B Membership Interests to fulfill a Series B Member’s delivery obligation with respect to the Class A Shares that are to be acquired upon exercise of any such option will occur immediately prior to the time that delivery of the Class A Shares is to be made.
(iv) Each Series B Member shall represent in the Exchange Request that such Series B Member owns the Series B Membership Interests and Class B Shares to be delivered at the applicable Closing pursuant to Section 2.01(d)(i) and Section 2.01(d)(ii), free and clear of all Liens, except as set forth therein and other than transfer restrictions imposed by or under applicable securities laws and this Agreement and the LLC Agreement, and, if there are any Liens identified in the Exchange Request, such Series B Member shall covenant that such Series B Member will deliver at the applicable Closing evidence reasonably satisfactory to HII that all such Liens (other than transfer restrictions imposed by or under applicable securities laws and this Agreement and the LLC Agreement) have been released.
(v) No Exchange shall be permitted (and, if attempted, shall be void ab initio) if, in the good faith determination of the Company, such Exchange would pose a material risk that the Company would be a “publicly traded partnership” as defined in Section 7704 of the Code.
(vi) Each Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.01(a) shall be at the Exchange Rate and Share Exchange Rate in effect at the applicable Closing.
(b) Closing. (i) If an Exchange Request has been delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i), then (subject to Section 2.01(c)) the Closing of such Exchange shall occur on the date that is the later of (x) the fifth Business Day following the last Business Day of the Fiscal Quarter during which such Exchange Request has been delivered and (y) the fifth Business Day following the date on which the conditions giving rise to any delay pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(ii) cease to exist. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, parties shall effect the Closing at such time, at such place, and in such manner, as HII shall reasonably specify.
6
(ii) If HII enters into an agreement to consummate a Business Combination Transaction, HII shall give each Series B Member at least 20 Business Days’ notice of the closing thereof, if practicable, and HII shall cause such agreement to provide that, at the request of a Series B Member, such Series B Member shall be entitled to Exchange its Series B Membership Interests (together with a corresponding number of Class B Shares) for Class A Shares immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination Transaction in order for such Series B Member to be able to receive the amount and type of consideration payable pursuant to such Business Combination Transaction to holders of Class A Shares, and such agreement shall provide that such Series B Member shall be entitled to revoke such request on up to two Business Days’ notice to HII prior to the closing thereof. If any Person commences a tender offer or exchange offer for any of the outstanding shares of HII’s stock, HII shall use reasonable efforts to cause such Person to provide that the terms of such offer shall entitle such Series B Member, at the request of such Series B Member, to Exchange its Series B Membership Interests (together with a corresponding number of Class B Shares) for Class A Shares immediately prior to the consummation of such tender offer or exchange offer in order for such Series B Member to participate in such tender offer or exchange offer, and to permit such Series B Member to revoke such request on up to two Business Days’ notice to such Person prior to the closing thereof. The Closing for any Exchange occurring pursuant to this Section 2.01(b)(ii) shall occur immediately prior to, but remain subject to the consummation immediately after of, the Business Combination Transaction, tender offer or exchange offer, as applicable, and such Exchange shall be reversed immediately if such Business Combination Transaction, tender offer or exchange offer, as applicable, shall fail to be consummated after such Exchange.
(iii) Upon the occurrence of a Closing, (A) all rights of the Exchanging Series B Member as holder of the Series B Membership Interests (and corresponding number of Class B Shares) being Exchanged shall terminate, (B) the Class B Shares delivered at the Closing shall be automatically cancelled on the books and records of HII and shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding capital stock of HII, (C) the Series B Membership Interests delivered at the Closing shall automatically be cancelled on the books and records of the Company and shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding membership interests of the Company, and (D) such Exchanging Series B Member shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of the Class A Shares delivered at the Closing.
(c) Closing Conditions. (i) The obligation of any of the parties to consummate an Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be subject to the condition that there shall be no injunction, restraining order or decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity that is then in effect that restrains or prohibits the Exchange of Series B Membership Interests (together with the corresponding number of Class B Shares) for Class A Shares.
(ii) The obligation of HII to consummate an Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be subject to (A) the delivery by the Exchanging Series B Member of the items specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 2.01(d) and (B) the good faith determination by HII that such Exchange would not violate any contract, commitment, agreement, instrument, arrangement, understanding, obligation, or undertaking to which HII is subject.
7
(d) Closing Deliveries. At or prior to each Closing, with respect to each Series B Member that requests the Exchange contemplated for such Closing:
(i) to the extent that such Series B Member’s Series B Membership Interests are certificated, such Series B Member shall deliver to HII one or more certificates representing the number of Series B Membership Interests specified in the applicable Exchange Request (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in customary form, but without any requirement to post a bond or furnish any other security), accompanied by security transfer powers, in form reasonably satisfactory to the corporate secretary of HII (the “Secretary”), duly executed in blank by such Series B Member or such Series B Member’s duly authorized attorney, to be Exchanged for Class A Shares based on the Exchange Rate in effect at the applicable Closing;
(ii) to the extent such Series B Member’s Class B Shares are certificated, such Series B Member shall deliver to HII one or more certificates representing a number of Class B Shares as determined pursuant to the Share Exchange Rate in effect at the applicable Closing (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in customary form, but without any requirement to post a bond or furnish any other security), accompanied by security transfer powers, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Secretary, duly executed in blank by such Series B Member or such Series B Member’s duly authorized attorney;
(iii) such Series B Member shall represent in writing, and at HII’s request deliver confirmatory evidence reasonably satisfactory to HII, that no Liens exist on the Series B Membership Interests and Class B Shares delivered pursuant to Sections 2.01(d)(i) and 2.01(d)(ii) (other than transfer restrictions imposed by or under applicable securities laws, the LLC Agreement and this Agreement), or that such Liens have been released;
(iv) if such Series B Member delivers to HII, pursuant to Section 2.01(d)(i) or 2.01(d)(ii), a certificate representing a number of Series B Membership Interests or Class B Shares that is greater than the number of Series B Membership Interests or Class B Shares specified in the applicable Exchange Request, HII will deliver (or cause the Company to deliver) to such Series B Member certificates representing the excess Series B Membership Interests or Class B Shares, as applicable; and
(v) HII shall deliver or cause to be delivered to such Series B Member at the then-acting registrar and transfer agent of the Class A Shares or, if there is no then-acting registrar and transfer agent of the Class A Shares, at the principal executive offices of HII, the number of Class A Shares that such Series B Member is entitled to receive for Series B Membership Interests (together with the corresponding number of Class B Shares) in the Exchange.
Section 2.02. Adjustment. (a) On the date hereof, the Exchange Rate shall be 1 for 1. The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (i) any subdivision (by any unit split, unit distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination
8
(by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Series B Membership Interests that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Shares; or (ii) any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Shares that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Series B Membership Interests. If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Shares are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an Exchanging Series B Member shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Exchanging Series B Member would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Shares are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, this Section 2.02(a) shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property.
(b) On the date hereof, the Share Exchange Rate shall be 1 for 1. The Share Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (i) any subdivision (by any unit split, unit distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Series B Membership Interests that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class B Shares; or (ii) any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class B Shares that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Series B Membership Interests. If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class B Shares are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an Exchanging Series B Member shall be required to tender such securities or other property. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class B Shares are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, this Section 2.02(b) shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property.
Section 2.03. Expiration. In the event that the Company is dissolved, liquidated or wound up pursuant to the LLC Agreement or otherwise, any Exchange Right shall expire upon final distribution of the assets of the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement.
9
Section 2.04. Reservation of Class A Shares; Listing. HII shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, such number of Class A Shares as shall be issuable upon any such Exchange; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude HII from satisfying its obligations in respect of any such Exchange by delivery of purchased Class A Shares (which may or may not be held in the treasury of HII). HII shall deliver Class A Shares that have been registered under the Securities Act with respect to any Exchange to the extent a registration statement is effective and available for such shares. If any Class A Shares require registration with or approval of any Governmental Entity under any federal or state law before such Class A Shares may be issued upon an Exchange, HII shall cause such Class A Shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be. HII shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to list the Class A Shares required to be delivered upon any such Exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange upon which the outstanding Class A Shares are listed at the time of such Exchange (it being understood that any such shares may be subject to transfer restrictions under applicable securities laws). HII covenants that all Class A Shares issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Section 2.05. Recapitalization. This Agreement shall apply to the Series B Membership Interests held by the Series B Members and their Permitted Transferees as of the date hereof, as well as any Series B Membership Interests hereafter acquired by a Series B Member and its Permitted Transferees. This Agreement shall apply to, mutatis mutandis, and all references to “Series B Membership Interests” shall be deemed to include, any security, securities or other property of the Company that may be issued in respect of, in exchange for or in substitution of Series B Membership Interests, by reason of any distribution or dividend, split, reverse split, combination, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, exchange (other than an Exchange) or other transaction.

any or all of its Series B Membership Interests and corresponding Class B Shares to a Permitted Transferee of such Person or to any other Person in a transaction not in contravention of, and in accordance with, the LLC Agreement, then the transferee thereof shall have the right to execute and deliver a joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to HII.

Section 4.06. Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) is not intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties hereto and their Permitted Transferees, any rights or remedies hereunder.

Each of the parties irrevocably consents to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding in such courts may be served, and shall be effective, on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court, by any of the methods specified for the giving of Notices pursuant to Section 4.02. Each of the parties irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection or defense that it may now or hereafter have based on venue, inconvenience of forum, the lack of personal jurisdiction and the adequacy of service of process (as long as the party was provided Notice in accordance with the methods specified in Section 4.02) in any suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts.
Section 4.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

(a) No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is approved in writing by HII, the Company and Series B Members holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the outstanding Series B Membership Interests.
(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
Section 4.13. Assignment. Except as contemplated by Section 4.03 and except that the rights to have a legend removed from a certificate representing Restricted Class A Shares in accordance with Section 3.02(b) shall be deemed automatically assigned in connection with any transfer not prohibited hereunder, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors, assigns and Permitted Transferees.
Section 4.14. Tax Treatment. The parties to this Agreement intend that this Agreement shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of the Company pursuant to Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

14
report an Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable sale of Series B Membership Interests by a Series B Member to HII (in conjunction with an associated cancellation of Class B Shares); and (b) no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.
