PARTNERSHIP UNITS

3.1 Authorized Units

The interests in the Partnership of the Partners will be divided into and represented, as of the date hereof, by an unlimited number of only each of two classes of Units as follows: (i) interests of the General Partner will be represented by common partnership units (“Common Units”); and (ii) interests of Limited Partners will be represented by exchangeable limited partnership units (“Exchangeable Units”). Except in accordance with this Agreement, no other Partnership Interests, Units or other interests in the Partnership shall be issued other than as specified by the preceding sentence. Each of the Units will represent an interest in the Partnership having the preferences, rights, restrictions, conditions and limitations provided in this Agreement including:

(a)

the holders of Units will have the right to receive allocations of Net Income, Net Loss (and any items of income, gain, loss, or deduction that are specially allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(b)), taxable income and tax loss as provided in this Agreement;

(b)

the holders of the Units will have the right to share in returns of capital and to share in cash and any other distributions to Partners and to receive the remaining assets of the Partnership on dissolution or winding up in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

(c)

the holders of Units will have the right to receive notice of and to attend any meetings of Partners of the Partnership.

Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, no Partner will have any preference, priority or right in any circumstance over any other Partner in respect of the Units held by each. For greater certainty, the General Partner’s interest in the Partnership is a single interest defined by reference to the Common Units held by it and any other Units that it might acquire in accordance with this Agreement.

3.2 Rights, Privileges, Restrictions and Conditions of Exchangeable Units

(a)

In addition to the preferences, rights, restrictions, conditions and limitations set out in Section 3.1 and this Section 3.2, each Exchangeable Unit will have the rights and preferences set out with respect to such Exchangeable Unit in Schedule A hereto.

(b)

Unless otherwise approved in writing by the General Partner in its sole discretion, until the end of the Restricted Period, no holder of Exchangeable Units (beneficial or of record) shall be a party to or otherwise participate, directly or indirectly, in any short sale, forward contract to sell, option or forward contract to purchase, swap or other hedging, synthetic, “put” equivalent or similar derivative instrument or transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Exchangeable Units or any Holdings Shares, whether settled in cash or securities (any of the foregoing transactions, a “Hedging Transaction”).

(c)

Each Limited Partner acknowledges that, although as of the date of this Agreement the Exchangeable Units have been registered under the Securities Exchange Act, the General Partner is under no obligation to continue such registration and the General Partner shall be authorized to deregister the Exchangeable Units at any time that such registration is not legally required.

3.3 Issuance of Additional Units

(a)

Except for issuances of Units to Holdings pursuant to Section 3.4(b)(ii), from and after the issuance of the Exchangeable Units issued in connection with the Units Merger, the Partnership shall not issue any Units to Holdings nor any Units to any other Person.

(b)

The General Partner may, in its discretion, either retain the net proceeds from such issuance for use by the Partnership, or may cause the Partnership to distribute the net proceeds from any issuance of Units to Holdings for the purposes of funding redemption, repurchase or acquisition of Holdings Shares in accordance with Section 3.4(d).

(c)

No Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to the issuance of any Partnership Interests, whether unissued, held in the treasury or hereafter created.

(d)

All Partnership Interests issued by the Partnership shall be fully paid and non-assessable Partnership Interests.

3.4 Capital Structure of the Partnership and Holdings

So long as any Exchangeable Units are outstanding:

(a)

The General Partner shall, and shall cause the Partnership to, take all actions reasonably necessary so that, at all times for as long as this Agreement is in effect, the economic rights of the holders of the Exchangeable Units and the economic rights of the General Partner as holder of the Common Units shall be proportionate to their respective Percentage Interests (for the avoidance of doubt, not taking into account Section 3.4(d), Section 5.4(a), Section 5.4(b), Section 5.4(f) or any other provision of this Agreement the effect of which is to cause the economic rights of the holders of the Exchangeable Units and the economic rights of the General Partner as holder of the Common Units to not be proportionate to their respective Percentage Interests).

(b)

Without limiting the generality of Section 3.4(a):

(i)

upon the issuance by the General Partner of any Holdings Shares (other than pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right or an issuance

described in Section 3.5), including any issuance in connection with a business acquisition by Holdings, an equity incentive program or upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of any security or other instrument convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Holdings Shares, which, in each case, will result in a corresponding change in the Percentage Interests of the Partners in accordance with the definition of “Percentage Interests”, the General Partner shall contribute the proceeds of such issuance (net of any selling or underwriting discounts or commissions or other expenses, which for the avoidance of doubt, shall be deemed to be reimbursed by the Partnership in accordance with Section 5.4(f) and such reimbursement proceeds shall be deemed to be contributed by the General Partner to the Partnership) to the Partnership as a capital contribution on account of its Common Units; and

(ii)

if a new class of shares in the capital of Holdings is created and issued by Holdings (“New Shares”), the General Partner shall (either immediately before or after such issuance) (A) cause the Partnership to create a corresponding new class of Partnership Interests (“New Interests”) that has corresponding distribution rights to such New Shares, (B) cause the Partnership to issue one or more New Interests in exchange for the contribution by Holdings of the proceeds from the issuance of such New Shares (net of any selling or underwriting discounts or commissions or other expenses, which for the avoidance of doubt, shall be deemed to be reimbursed by the Partnership in accordance with Section 5.4(f) and such reimbursement proceeds shall be deemed to be contributed by the General Partner to the Partnership) to the Partnership, and (C) effect such amendments to this Agreement as are necessary in order to provide that the distributions and allocations on the New Interests to Holdings pursuant to this Agreement are made on terms that allow Holdings to fund distributions on such New Shares in accordance with their terms and such other amendments as are necessary such that the capital of Holdings in the Partnership continues to correspond with the outstanding capital of Holdings.

(c)

Other than in connection with any Direct Exchange, upon the exchange of any Exchangeable Units for Exchanged Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right, as of the effective date of such exchange, each Exchanged Share issued in exchange for an Exchangeable Unit shall be deemed (i) to have been first contributed by Holdings to the Partnership as a capital contribution in respect of its Common Units and (ii) then immediately thereafter to have been delivered by the Partnership to the holder exercising the Exchange Right and the Exchangeable Unit shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist. Upon the exchange of any Exchangeable Units for the Cash Amount (as defined in Schedule A) pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right, as of the effective date of such exchange, each such Exchangeable Unit automatically shall be deemed cancelled concurrently with such payment, without any action on the part of any Person, including Holdings or the Partnership.

(d)

If Holdings proposes to redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Holdings Shares for cash, the Partnership shall, immediately prior to such redemption, repurchase or acquisition, make a distribution to Holdings on its Common Units in an amount sufficient for Holdings to fund such redemption, repurchase or acquisition, as the case may be.

3.5 Reciprocal Changes

So long as any Exchangeable Units not owned by Holdings or its Subsidiaries are outstanding:

(a)

Holdings will not:

(i)

issue, dividend or otherwise distribute Holdings Shares (or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Holdings Shares) to the holders of the then outstanding Holdings Shares (as such) by way of stock dividend or other distribution; or

(ii)

issue, dividend or otherwise distribute rights, options or warrants to the holders of the then outstanding Holdings Shares (as such) entitling them to subscribe for or to purchase Holdings Shares (or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into or carrying rights to acquire Holdings Shares); or

(iii)

issue, dividend or otherwise distribute to the holders of the then outstanding Holdings Shares (as such) (A) shares or securities of Holdings other than Holdings Shares (other than shares convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or carrying rights to acquire Holdings Shares), (B) rights, options or warrants other than those referred to in Section 3.5(a)(ii) hereof, (C) evidences of indebtedness of Holdings or (D) assets of Holdings,

unless, in each case, the equitably equivalent on a per Exchangeable Unit basis of such Holdings Shares, rights, options, securities, warrants, shares, evidences of indebtedness or other assets is issued or distributed substantially simultaneously to holders of the Exchangeable Units; provided, that for greater certainty, the above restrictions shall not apply (A) to dividends or distributions on Holdings Shares where an equal distribution is substantially simultaneously made on each Exchangeable Unit in accordance with Section 5.4(a) or (B) to any securities issued or distributed by Holdings in order to give effect to and to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and in accordance with, the Transaction Agreement.

(b)

Holdings will not:

(i)

subdivide, redivide or change the then outstanding Holdings Shares into a greater number of Holdings Shares; or

(ii)

reduce, combine, consolidate or change the then outstanding Holdings Shares into a lesser number of Holdings Shares; or

(iii)

reclassify or otherwise change Holdings Shares or effect an amalgamation, merger, reorganization or other transaction affecting Holdings Shares (other than an amalgamation, merger, reorganization or other transaction affecting Holdings Shares where such Holdings Shares are used as consideration in an acquisition by the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership),

unless, in each case, the same or an equitably equivalent change shall substantially simultaneously be made to, or in the rights of the holders of, the Exchangeable Units.

(c)

Holdings will ensure that the record date for any event referred to in Section 3.5(a) or 3.5(b) hereof or (if no record date is applicable for such event) the effective date for any such event, will be the same with respect to both the Exchangeable Units and the Holdings Shares, and that such record date or effective date is not less than five Business Days after the date on which such event is declared or announced by Holdings (with contemporaneous notification thereof by Holdings to the Partnership and thereafter by the Partnership to the Limited Partners).

(d)

The General Partner shall determine reasonably and in good faith, with the assistance of a reputable and qualified independent financial advisor selected by the General Partner and such other experts as the General Partner may require, equitable and economic equivalence for the purposes of any event referred to in Section 3.5(a) or 3.5(b) hereof and each such determination shall be conclusive and binding on Holdings.

(e)

The General Partner agrees to use its best efforts to take or cause to be taken such steps as may be necessary for the purposes of ensuring that appropriate distributions are paid or other distributions are made by the Partnership, or subdivisions, redivisions or changes are made to the Exchangeable Units, in order to implement the required equitable equivalence with respect to distributions on the Holdings Shares and Exchangeable Units as provided for in this Section 3.5.

(f)

The Partnership shall not effect any Subdivision or Combination of Exchangeable Units other than in accordance with this Section 3.5

3.6 Segregation of Funds

3.7 Reservation of Holdings Shares

Holdings hereby represents, warrants and covenants in favor of the Partnership that Holdings has reserved for issuance and will, at all times while any Exchangeable Units (other than Exchangeable Units held by Holdings or its Subsidiaries) are outstanding, keep available, free from pre-emptive and other rights, out of its authorized and unissued share capital at least such number of Holdings Shares (or other shares or securities into which Holdings Shares may be reclassified or changed as contemplated by Section 3.4) without duplication (a) as is equal to the sum of (i) the number of Exchangeable Units issued and outstanding from time to time and (ii) the number of Exchangeable Units issuable upon the exercise of all rights to acquire Exchangeable Units outstanding from time to time and (b) as are now and may hereafter be required to enable and permit Holdings to meet its obligations under any other security or commitment pursuant to which Holdings may now or hereafter be required to issue Holdings Shares, and to enable and permit the Partnership to meet its obligations hereunder.

In order to assist Holdings to comply with its obligations hereunder, the General Partner will notify Holdings of each of the following events at the time set forth below:

immediately, upon receipt by the Partnership of an Exchange Notice;

(c)

as soon as practicable upon the issuance by the Partnership of any Exchangeable Units or rights to acquire Exchangeable Units.

3.9 Delivery of Holdings Shares to the Partnership

Other than in connection with any Direct Exchange, upon notice from the Partnership of any event that requires the Partnership to cause Holdings Shares to be delivered to any holder of Exchangeable Units, the General Partner shall forthwith issue and deliver or cause to be delivered, for and on behalf of the Partnership, the requisite number of Holdings Shares to be received by, and issued to or to the order of, the former holder of the surrendered Exchangeable Units. All such Holdings Shares shall be duly authorized and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance. In consideration of the issuance and delivery of each such Holdings Share, Holdings shall be deemed to have made a capital contribution to the Partnership as provided in Section 3.4(c).

3.10 Qualification of Holdings Shares

If any Holdings Shares (or other shares or securities into which Holdings Shares may be reclassified or changed as contemplated by Section 3.4) to be issued and delivered hereunder require registration or qualification with or approval of or the filing of any document, including any prospectus or similar document or the taking of any proceeding with or the obtaining of any order, ruling or consent from any governmental or regulatory authority under any United States

federal or state securities or other law or regulation or pursuant to the rules and regulations of any securities or other regulatory authority or the fulfillment of any other United States legal requirement before such shares (or such other shares or securities) may be issued and delivered by Holdings to the holder of surrendered Exchangeable Units or in order that such shares (or such other shares or securities) may be freely traded thereafter (other than any restrictions of general application on Transfer by reason of a holder being an “affiliate” of Holdings for purposes of United States federal or state securities law), Holdings will use it reasonable best efforts to expeditiously take all such actions and do all such things as are reasonably necessary or desirable to cause such Holdings Shares (or such other shares or securities) to be and remain duly registered, qualified or approved under United States law. Holdings will use its reasonable best efforts to expeditiously take all such actions and do all such things as are reasonably necessary or desirable to cause all Holdings Shares (or such other shares or securities) to be delivered hereunder to be listed, quoted or posted for trading on all stock exchanges and quotation systems on which outstanding Holdings Shares (or such other shares or securities) have been listed by Holdings and remain listed and are quoted or posted for trading at such time.

Registration of interests in, and as provided in Section 3.15 Transfers of, Units will be made only in the Record. The General Partner shall cause to be maintained at the registered office of the Partnership a record of the address at which the Record is maintained.

3.15 Restriction on Transfers

(a)

Unless otherwise approved in writing by the General Partner in its sole discretion, no holder of Units may Transfer any interest in any Units, except Transfers (i) pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3.15(b) or (ii) following the end of the Restricted Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Transfer” shall not include an event that terminates the existence of a Partner for income tax purposes (including, without limitation, a change in entity classification of a Partner under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3, termination of a partnership pursuant to Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), a sale of assets by, or liquidation of, a Partner pursuant to an election under Code Section 338, or merger, severance, or allocation within a trust or among sub-trusts of a trust that is a Partner), but that does not terminate the existence of such Partner under applicable state law (or, in the case of a trust that is a Partner, does not terminate the trusteeship of the fiduciaries under such trust with respect to all the Partnership Interests of such trust that is a Partner).

(b)

The restrictions contained in Section 3.15(a) shall not apply to any Transfer (each, a “Permitted Transfer”) (i) (A) pursuant to a Holdings Control Transaction, (B) pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (C) by a Partner to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) by any Partner, to any member of such Partner’s immediate family, or to trusts solely for the benefit of such Partner (or, to the extent that such Partner is not a natural person, the ultimate beneficial owner of the Units held by such Partner) or any member of such Partner’s (or such beneficial owner’s) immediate family, by will or otherwise upon the death of such Partner or otherwise for estate planning purposes, by operation of law, to any other Partner, or for charitable purposes or as charitable gifts or donations, and (iii) to any Person who is a Permitted Transferee as defined on Schedule B; provided, however, that (A) the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to apply to Units after any Permitted Transfer of such Units, and (B) in the case of the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), the transferees of the Units so Transferred shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)

By acceptance of the Transfer of any Unit, each transferee of a Unit (including any nominee holder or an agent or representative acquiring such Units for the

account of another Person) (i) shall be admitted to the Partnership as a Partner with respect to the Units so transferred to such transferee when any such Transfer or admission is reflected in the Record, (ii) shall be deemed to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (iii) shall become the Record Holder of the Units so transferred, (iv) grants powers of attorney to the General Partner, as specified herein, and (v) makes the consents and waivers contained in this Agreement. The Transfer of any Units and the admission of any new Partner shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

(d)

No change of name or address of a Limited Partner, no Transfer of a Unit and no admission of a substituted Limited Partner in the Partnership will be effective for the purposes of this Agreement until the requirements set out in this Article 3 have been satisfied, and until that change, Transfer, substitution or addition is duly reflected in an amendment to the Record as may be required by the Act. The names and addresses of the Limited Partners as reflected from time to time in the Record, as from time to time amended, will be conclusive as to those facts for all purposes of the Partnership.

(e)

Where the transferee complies with all applicable provisions and is entitled to become a Limited Partner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner shall admit the transferee to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner and the Limited Partners hereby consent to the admission of, and will admit, the transferee to the Partnership as a Limited Partner, without further act of the Limited Partners (other than as may be required by law).

3.16 Notice of Change to General Partner

No name or address of a Limited Partner will be changed and no Transfer of a Unit or substitution or addition of a Limited Partner in the Partnership will be recorded on the Record except pursuant to a notice in writing received by the General Partner.

A Limited Partner, or an agent of a Limited Partner duly authorized in writing, has the right to inspect and make copies from the Record during normal business hours.

3.18 Amendment of Record

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may effect such filings, recordings, registrations and amendments to the Record and to any other documents and at any places as in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership are necessary or advisable to reflect changes in the membership of the Partnership, Transfers of Units and dissolution or de-registration of the Partnership as provided in this Agreement and to constitute a transferee as a Limited Partner.

3.19 Non-Recognition of Nominees

Units may be held by nominees on behalf of the beneficial owners of the Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in this Agreement, as required by Law or as

recognized by the General Partner in its sole discretion, no Person will be recognized (including in any case in which the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code) by the Partnership or any Limited Partner as holding any Unit on behalf of another Person with the beneficial interest in that other Person, and the Partnership and Limited Partners will not be bound or compelled in any way to recognize (even when having actual notice) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Unit or in any fractional part of a Unit or any other rights in respect of any Unit except an absolute right to the entirety of the Unit in the Limited Partner shown on the Record as holder of that Unit.

3.20 Incapacity, Death, Insolvency or Bankruptcy

Where a Person becomes entitled to Units on the incapacity, death, insolvency, or bankruptcy of a Limited Partner, or otherwise by operation of Law, in addition to the requirements of Section 3.15, that entitlement will not be recognized or entered into the Record until that Person:

(a)

has produced evidence satisfactory to the Registrar and Transfer Agent of that Person’s entitlement; and

(b)

has delivered any other evidence, approvals and consents in respect to that entitlement as the Registrar and Transfer Agent may require and as may be required by Law or by this Agreement.

3.21 No Transfer upon Dissolution

No Transfer of Units may be made or will be accepted or entered into the Record after the occurrence of any of the events set out in Section 13.1.

3.22 Form of Units

(a)

Units shall not be certificated unless otherwise determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion. If the Partnership determines that one or more Units shall be certificated, each such certificate shall be signed by or in the name of the Partnership, by the Chief Executive Officer of the General Partner and any other officer designated by the General Partner, representing the number of Units held by such holder. Such certificate shall be in such form as the General Partner may determine and shall contain such legends as required by Law or as deemed appropriate by the General Partner to alert third parties to the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in this Agreement. Any or all of such signatures on any certificate representing one or more Units may be a facsimile, engraved or printed, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(b)

If Units are certificated, the General Partner may direct that a new certificate representing one or more Units be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Partnership alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon delivery to the General Partner of an affidavit of the owner or owners of such certificate, setting forth such allegation. The General Partner may require the

owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner’s legal representative, to give the Partnership a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of any such new certificate.

(c)

Upon surrender to the Partnership or the Registrar and Transfer Agent of a certificate for one or more Units, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate evidence of succession, assignment or authority to Transfer, in compliance with the provisions hereof, the Partnership shall issue a new certificate representing one or more Units to the Person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner may prescribe such additional rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate relating to the issue, Transfer and registration of Units.

3.23 Record Holders

In accordance with Section 3.15, the Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the Limited Partner with respect to any Units and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not the Partnership shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Units, as between the Partnership on the one hand and such other Person on the other hand, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Units. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any Partner.

3.24 Offers for Units

For so long as Exchangeable Units remain outstanding (not including Exchangeable Units held by Holdings and its Subsidiaries):

5.2 Allocation for Capital Account Purposes

(a)

In General.

(i)

Subject to Section 5.2(a)(ii), and after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.2(b), Net Income (Net Loss) of the Partnership for each Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be allocated among the Capital Accounts of the Partners as follows:

(A)

Net Income of the Partnership shall first be allocated to the holders of Exchangeable Units pro rata in proportion to the relative number of Exchangeable Units held by each such holder, until the cumulative amount of Net Income allocated to the holders of Exchangeable Units pursuant to this Section 5.2(a)(i)(A) is equal to the sum of (I) the cumulative amount distributed to such holders pursuant to Section 5.4 during, or with respect to, the current Fiscal Year or any prior period and (II) any Net Loss (expressed as a positive number) previously allocated to the holders of Exchangeable Units.

(B)

Thereafter, Net Income of the Partnership shall be allocated to the holder of Common Units.

(C)

Net Loss of the Partnership shall first be allocated in a manner such that the Adjusted Capital Account of each Partner, immediately after making such allocation is, as nearly as possible, equal to an amount (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate Adjusted Capital Account balances of all Partners) equal to such Partner’s Percentage Interest.

(D)

Thereafter, Net Loss of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners pro rata in accordance with each Partner’s Percentage Interest.

(ii)

Notwithstanding Section 5.2(a)(i), but subject to Section 5.2(b), Net Income and Net Loss (or items thereof) of the Partnership realized in connection with the sale or other disposition by the Partnership of all or substantially all of its assets (including for this purpose a Revaluation in accordance with Section 4.3(c)) shall be allocated among the Partners in a manner such that the Adjusted Capital Account of each Partner, immediately after making such allocation is, as nearly as possible, equal to an amount (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate Adjusted Capital Account balances of all Partners) equal to such Partner’s Percentage Interest.

(b)

Special Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.2, the following special allocations shall be made for each Fiscal Year or other taxable period:

(i)

Partnership Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.2, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, each Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 5.2(b)(i), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) with respect to such taxable period (other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(iii) and (iv)). This Section 5.2(b)(i) is intended to comply with the Partnership Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(ii)

Chargeback of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 5.2 (other than Section 5.2(b)(i)), except as provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, any Partner with a share of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable period shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or any successor provisions. For purposes of this Section 5.2(b)(ii), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b), other than Section 5.2(b)(i) and other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(v) and (vi), with respect to such taxable period. This Section 5.2(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)

Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in

an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(i) or (ii). This Section 5.2(b)(iii) is intended to qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv)

Gross Income Allocations. In the event any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Partnership taxable period in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Partner is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (B) the amount such Partner is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.2(b)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account as adjusted after all other allocations provided for in this Section 5.2 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.2(b)(iv) were not in this Agreement.

(v)

Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the holders of the Common Units and the Exchangeable Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. If the General Partner determines that the Partnership’s Nonrecourse Deductions should be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the General Partner is authorized to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ratio that does satisfy such requirements.

(vi)

Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Partners in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.

(vii)

Nonrecourse Liabilities. Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Partnership described in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be allocated among the Partners in a manner chosen by the General Partner and consistent with such Treasury Regulation.

(viii)

Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.

(ix)

Curative Allocation.

(A)

The Required Allocations are intended to comply with certain requirements of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Partners that, to the extent possible, all Required Allocations shall be offset either with other Required Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 5.2(b)(ix). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5 (other than the Required Allocations), the General Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate (taking into account required future allocations) so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partner’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Required Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Partnership items were allocated pursuant to the economic agreement among the Partners.

(B)

The General Partner shall, with respect to each taxable period, (1) apply the provisions of Section 5.2(b)(ix)(A) in whatever order is most likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Required Allocations, and (2) divide all allocations pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(ix)(A) among the Partners in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.

5.3 Allocation of Net Income and Losses for Tax Purposes

(a)

Except as otherwise provided herein, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(a).

(b)

In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any Property contributed to the capital of the Partnership and with respect to reverse Code Section 704(c) allocations described in U.S. Treasury Regulations 1.704-3(a)(6) 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 U.S. federal income tax purposes and its initial Carrying Value or its Carrying Value determined pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) (computed in accordance with the definition of Carrying Value) using any allocation method under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3 as the General Partner may decide. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the General Partner in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3, Section 704(c) of the Code (and the principles thereof), and U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) 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 Net Income, Net Loss, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(c)

The General Partner shall determine all matters concerning allocations for tax purposes not expressly provided for herein in its sole discretion. For the proper administration of the Partnership and for the preservation of uniformity of Units (or any portion or class or classes thereof), the General Partner may (i) amend the provisions of this Agreement as appropriate (x) to reflect the proposal or promulgation of U.S. Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) or Section 704(c) of the Code or (y) otherwise to preserve or achieve uniformity of Units (or any portion or class or classes thereof), and (ii) adopt and employ or modify such conventions and methods as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate for (A) the determination for U.S. federal income tax purposes of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit and the allocation of such items among Partners and between transferors and transferees under this Agreement and pursuant to the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, (B) the determination of the identities and tax classification of Partners, (C) the valuation of Partnership assets and the determination of tax basis, (D) the allocation of asset values and tax basis, and (E) the adoption and maintenance of accounting methods.

(d)

For purposes of determining the items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit allocable to any Partner for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to any period, such items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, quarterly or other basis, as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, using any permissible method under Section 706 of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(e)

Allocations that would otherwise be made to a Partner under the provisions of this Article 5 shall instead be made to the beneficial owner of Partnership Interests

held by a nominee in any case in which the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code or any other method determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

5.4 Distributions

(a)

Subject to Sections 5.4(c) and 5.4(f), if a dividend or distribution shall have been declared and be payable in respect of a Holdings Share (excluding where a dividend or distribution is effected in accordance with Section 3.5), the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to:

(i)

make a distribution in respect of each Exchangeable Unit in an amount equal to the dividend or distribution payable in respect of a Holdings Share; and

(ii)

make a distribution in respect of the outstanding Common Units in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the dividends or distributions payable in respect of the Holdings Shares;

(b)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Act, the General Partner is authorized to take any action that may be required to cause the Partnership or any of its Affiliates to comply with any withholding requirements established under the Code (including pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446 and 3406), or any other federal, state, local or foreign law. To the extent that the Partnership is required to or elects to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting from the allocation or distribution of income to any Partner (including by reason of Section 1446 of the Code) or to the extent that any payments made to the Partnership are subject to withholding as a result of such payments being attributable to any particular Partner, the General Partner may treat the amount withheld as a distribution of cash to such Partner pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 13.3 in the amount of such withholding from or in respect of such Partner. The General Partner may treat taxes paid by the Partnership on behalf of, or amounts previously withheld with respect to, all or less than all of the Partners, as a distribution of cash to such Partners. In any such case, unless such amount was withheld from amounts otherwise distributable to such Partner hereunder, it shall be treated as an advance to such Partner which shall be repayable on demand and if not repaid may be set off against subsequent distributions to such Partner.

(c)

Notwithstanding Section 5.4(a), in the event of the dissolution of the Partnership, all receipts received during or after the Fiscal Year quarter in which the Liquidation Date occurs shall be applied and distributed solely in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 13.3.

(d)

Each distribution in respect of a Partnership Interest shall be paid by the Partnership directly or through the Registrar and Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest as of

the Record Date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnership’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.

(e)

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Partnership, and the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership, shall not be required to make a distribution to a Partner or a Record Holder if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable Law.

(f)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4(a), the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may authorize that to the extent that the General Partner determines in good faith that expenses or other obligations of Holdings are related to its role as the General Partner or the business and affairs of Holdings that are conducted through the Partnership or any of the Partnership’s direct or indirect Subsidiaries, cash (and, for the avoidance of doubt, only cash) distributions may be made to Holdings (which distributions shall be made without pro rata distributions to the other Partners) in amounts required for Holdings to pay: (i) any tax liabilities of Holdings, (ii) any operating, administrative and other similar costs incurred by Holdings (including (w) payments in respect of indebtedness and equity securities of Holdings to the extent the proceeds are used or will be used by Holdings to pay expenses or other obligations described in this Section 5.4(f) (in either case only to the extent economically equivalent indebtedness or equity securities of the Partnership were not issued to Holdings), (x) indemnification obligations of Holdings owing to directors, officers, employees or other persons under Holdings’ articles, charter, by-laws or other governing documents or pursuant to written agreements with any such person, (y) obligations of Holdings in respect of director and officer insurance (including premiums therefor) and (z) payments pursuant to any legal, tax, accounting and other professional fees and expenses); (iii) any judgments, settlements, penalties, fines or other costs and expenses in respect of any claims against, or any litigation or proceedings involving, Holdings; (iv) fees and expenses (including any underwriters discounts and commissions) related to any securities offering, investment or acquisition transaction (whether or not successful) authorized by the board of directors of Holdings, including any fees and expenses incurred in connection the registration, qualification or listing of any Holdings Shares (or other shares or securities into which Holdings Shares may be reclassified or changed as contemplated by Section 3.4) as contemplated by Section 3.10; and (v) other fees and expenses in connection with the maintenance of the existence of Holdings (including any costs or expenses associated with being a public company listed on any national securities exchange and compliance with applicable Laws or the requirements of a Governmental Authority). For the avoidance of doubt, distributions made under this Section 5.4(f) may not be used to pay or facilitate dividends or distributions on the Holdings Shares and must be used solely for one of the express purposes set forth pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. All distributions under this Section 5.4(f) shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code.

5.5 Repayments

If, as determined in good faith by the General Partner, it appears that any Partner has received an amount under this Article 5 which is in excess of that Partner’s entitlement, the Partner will, promptly upon notice from the General Partner, reimburse the Partnership to the extent of the excess, and failing immediate reimbursement, the General Partner may withhold the amount of the excess (with interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) from time to time calculated and compounded monthly) from further distributions otherwise due to the Partner.

ARTICLE 6

Any Group Member (including the Partnership) may lend or contribute to any other Group Member, and any Group Member may borrow from any other Group Member (including the Partnership), funds on terms and conditions determined by the General Partner. The foregoing authority shall be exercised by the General Partner in its sole discretion and shall not create any right or benefit in favor of any Group Member or any other Person.

(c)

The General Partner may itself, or may enter into an agreement with any of its Affiliates to, render services to a Group Member or to the Partnership in the discharge of its duties as general partner of the Partnership.

The Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, other partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions as are consistent with this Agreement and applicable Law.

(e)

The General Partner or any of its Affiliates may sell, transfer or convey any property to, or purchase any property from, the Partnership, directly or indirectly, pursuant to transactions that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership; provided, however, that the requirements of this Section 7.3(e) conclusively shall be deemed to be satisfied and not a breach of any duty hereunder or existing at law, in equity or otherwise as to (i) any transaction, the terms of which are no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties, or (ii) any transaction that is fair and reasonable to the Partnership, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be or have been particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership). With respect to any contribution of assets to the Partnership in exchange for Partnership Interests or

options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests, the General Partner, in determining whether the appropriate Partnership Interest or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests are being issued, may take into account, among other things, the fair market value of the assets, the liquidated and contingent liabilities assumed, the tax basis in the assets, the extent to which tax-only allocations to the transferor will protect the existing partners of the Partnership against a low tax basis, and such other factors as the General Partner deems relevant under the circumstances.

7.4 Title to Property

The General Partner may hold legal title to any of the assets or property of the Partnership in its name as bare trustee for the benefit of the Partnership.

Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the consent of each Limited Partner, if any, adversely affected thereby in any material respect, if such amendment or action would (i) cause a Limited Partner to be deemed to be or treated as a general partner of the Partnership within the meaning of the Act (except as a result of the Limited Partner becoming the General Partner in accordance with the provisions hereof), (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, or (ii) amend this Section 7.5.

7.6 Limitation of Liability

The General Partner is not personally liable for the return of any Capital Contribution made by a Limited Partner to the Partnership. Moreover, notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor its officers, directors, shareholders, employees or agents are or will be liable, responsible for or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Partnership or a Limited Partner for an action taken or failure to act on behalf of the Partnership unless the General Partner’s act or omission (a) was outside the scope of the authority conferred on the General Partner by this Agreement or by Law, (b) was in breach of, or was performed or omitted by actual fraud or in bad faith or constituted gross negligence, willful or reckless disregard of the General Partner’s obligations under, this Agreement or (c) was in breach of the General Partner’s fiduciary duty under Section 7.18(c).

7.7 Indemnity of General Partner

(a)

To the fullest extent permitted by Law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner, the Tax Matters Partner, a Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an Affiliate of the General Partner or any Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate, or any Person who is or was serving at the request of the General

Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another Person (collectively, an “Indemnitee”), will be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities joint or several expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses on a solicitor/client basis), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts (collectively, “Damages”) arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as:

(i)

the General Partner, the Tax Matters Partner, a Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an Affiliate of the General Partner or any Departing Partner;

(ii)

any Person who is or was an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate; or

(iii)

any Person who is or was serving at the request of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another Person,

except to the extent such Damages resulted or arose from any act or omission of the General Partner or any other Indemnitee that (a) was outside the scope of the authority conferred on the General Partner by this Agreement or by Law, (b) was in breach of, or was performed or omitted by actual fraud or in bad faith or constituted gross negligence or willful or reckless disregard of the General Partner’s obligations under, this Agreement or (c) was in breach of the General Partner’s fiduciary duty under Section 7.18(c). The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction will not create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above.

Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7(a) will be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.

(b)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding will, from time to time, be advanced by the Partnership prior to the final disposition of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay that amount if it is determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.7.

(c)

The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 will be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of Law or otherwise, and will continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in the capacity that entitled it to such indemnification.

(d)

The Partnership may purchase and maintain (or reimburse the General Partner or its Affiliates for the cost of) insurance, on behalf of those Indemnitees (other than the General Partner itself) as the General Partner determines, against any liability that may be asserted against or expense that may be incurred by that Indemnitee in connection with the Partnership’s activities, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify those Indemnitees against those liabilities under the provisions of this Agreement.

7.8 Other Matters Concerning the General Partner

(a)

The General Partner may rely and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

(b)

The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisors selected by it, and any act taken or omitted in reliance upon the opinion (including, without limitation, an opinion of counsel) of any of those Persons as to matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within that Person’s professional or expert competence will be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with that opinion.

(c)

The General Partner has the right, in respect of any of its power, authority or obligations under this Agreement, to act through any of its duly authorized officers.

(d)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) it shall be deemed not to be a breach of the General Partner’s or any other Indemnitee’s duties or any other obligation of any type whatsoever of the General Partner or any other Indemnitee for the Indemnitee (other than the General Partner) to engage in such business interests and activities in preference to or to the exclusion of any Group Member, (iii) the General Partner and the Indemnitees shall have no obligation hereunder or as a result of any duty otherwise existing at Law or otherwise to present business opportunities to any Group Member and (iv) the doctrine of “corporate opportunity” or other analogous doctrine shall not apply to any such Indemnitee.

7.9 Employment of an Affiliate

The General Partner may itself, or may enter into an agreement with any of its Affiliates to, render services to a Group Member or to the General Partner in the discharge of its duties as general partner of the Partnership. Any services rendered to a Group Member by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates shall be on terms that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership;

provided, however, that the requirements of this Section 7.9 conclusively shall be deemed satisfied and not a breach of any duty hereunder or existing at Law or otherwise as to any transaction (i) the terms of which are no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or (ii) that is fair and reasonable to the Partnership, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be or have been particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership).

7.16 New General Partner

A new general partner will become a party to this Agreement by signing a counterpart of this Agreement and will agree to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement and to assume the obligations, duties and liabilities of the General Partner under this Agreement as from the date the new general partner becomes a party to this Agreement.

(c)

Notwithstanding any standard of care or duty imposed under the Act or any applicable Law, in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the General Partner agrees and acknowledges that it will owe to the Limited Partners the same fiduciary duties that would be owed to the shareholders of a limited company formed under the laws of the Republic of Singapore if the General Partner were a member of the board of directors of such company, except where another standard is expressly set forth in this Agreement (e.g., “sole discretion” or “good faith”), in which event such other standard shall apply.

(d)

EXCHANGE OF EXCHANGEABLE UNITS BY HOLDER

2.1

Exchange Right

(a)

From and after the end of the Restricted Period, a holder of Exchangeable Units shall, from time to time in accordance with this Article 2, have the right to require the Partnership to repurchase (the “Exchange Right”) any or all of the Exchangeable Units of such series held by such holder for either (A) the Exchanged Shares or (B) the Cash Amount, the form of consideration to be determined by the General Partner for and on behalf of the Partnership in its sole discretion. Written notice of the determination of the form of consideration shall be given to the holder of the Exchangeable Units exercising the Exchange Right no later than 5 Business Days after receipt of a given Exchange Notice.

(b)

To exercise the Exchange Right, the holder shall present and surrender at the office of the Partnership (or at any office of the Registrar and Transfer Agent as may be specified by the Partnership by notice to the holders of Exchangeable Units) (i) a duly executed Exchange Notice and (ii) the certificate or certificates, if any, representing the Exchangeable Units which the holder desires to have

exchanged, together with (iii) such additional documents and instruments as the Registrar and Transfer Agent may reasonably require pursuant to its standard and customary practices (but, in any event, excluding any representations and warranties other than as to ownership and authority) or as required by law (e.g., Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8 or W-9); provided, however, that, with respect to any exercise of the Exchange Right prior to the third anniversary of the Unit Effective Time, unless waived by Holdings, it shall be a further condition precedent to the obligation of the Partnership to repurchase such Exchangeable Units, and the holder of such Exchangeable Units shall not be permitted to exercise an Exchange Right, unless: (x) Holdings has received a written opinion (a “7874 Opinion”) of Ernst & Young LLP (or if Ernst & Young LLP is unwilling or unable to perform, another independent nationally recognized law or accounting firm) (the “Tax Firm”) to the effect that the exercise of such Exchange Right should not cause Holdings to be treated as (1) a “surrogate foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 7874(a)(2)(B) of the Code) or (2) a “domestic corporation” (within the meaning of Section 7874(b) of the Code) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any successor sections of the Code with respect to (1) and (2) above following any change in law) and (y) Holdings’ independent auditor has determined (an “Auditor Determination”) that no reserve shall be required for financial accounting purposes (pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, as such guidance may be modified by future FASB interpretations, statements, or other FASB guidance) relating to Code Section 7874 of the Code as a result of the exercise of such Exchange Right. The Exchange Notice shall (A) specify the number of Exchangeable Units in respect of which the holder is exercising the Exchange Right (the “Subject Units”) and (B) state the Business Day on which the holder desires to have the Partnership exchange the Subject Units (the “Exchange Date”); provided, that (x) the Exchange Date must be no less than 8 Business Days and no more than 10 Business Days after the date on which the Exchange Notice is received by the Partnership (unless otherwise extended by Holdings in connection with obtaining the 7874 Opinion and Auditor Determination as provided herein) and (y) each holder of Exchangeable Units, together with its Affiliates, may submit only one Exchange Notice per calendar month.

(c)

Holdings shall act in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the 7874 Opinion and the Auditor Determination as soon as reasonably practical following the exercise by a holder of an Exchange Right. In furtherance of the foregoing, to better ensure that the analysis necessary to obtain the 7874 Opinion and the Auditor Determination can be completed as soon as practicable following the date on which a holder exercises an Exchange Right, prior to the end of the Restricted Period, Holdings shall (i) retain the Tax Firm to (a) deliver to Holdings a 7874 Opinion (based on the assumption that the Exchange Date is the day immediately following the last day of the Restricted Period), or to do all work necessary to render such an opinion and (b) “bring down” or otherwise render such an opinion (assuming no change in law or fact would prevent it from doing so) at each such time that a holder exercises an Exchange Right (unless Holdings intends to waive the 7874 Opinion condition) and (ii) retain its independent

auditor to complete the work that would be required for the auditor to make the Auditor Determination (based on the assumption that the Exchange Date is the day immediately following the last day of the Restricted Period). At the request of any holder of Exchangeable Units, Holdings (after consulting with its auditor and the Tax Firm) will promptly notify such holder (x) whether the 7874 Opinion or the Auditor Determination can reasonably be expected to be obtained based on the facts and law in effect at the time of such request or (y) whether or not the Partnership would be prepared to waive the requirement that the 7874 Opinion or the Auditor Determination would be required in connection with a given Exchange Notice.

2.2

Share Settlement Option

If the General Partner elects to repurchase the Subject Units for Holdings Shares, and provided that the Exchange Notice is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of this Schedule A, effective at the close of business on the Exchange Date:

(a)

the Partnership shall have, and shall be deemed to have, repurchased the Subject Units for cancellation in consideration for the transfer to such holder of the applicable number of Exchanged Shares and such holder shall be deemed to have transferred to the Partnership all of such holder’s right, title and interest in and to the Subject Units;

(b)

the Partnership shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to such holder, for and on behalf of the Partnership and in the manner provided for in Section 2.4 of this Schedule A, the applicable number of Exchanged Shares; and

(c)

the Partnership shall issue to Holdings a number of Common Units equal to the number of Exchanged Shares delivered to such holder pursuant to Section 3.2(b), in consideration for Holdings delivering such Exchanged Shares to such holder.

2.3

Cash Settlement Option

If the General Partner elects to repurchase the Subject Units for the Cash Amount, and provided that the Exchange Notice is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of this Schedule A, effective at the close of business on the Exchange Date:

(a)

the Partnership shall have, and shall be deemed to have, repurchased the Subject Units for cancellation in consideration for the payment to such holder of the aggregate Cash Amount and such holder shall be deemed to have transferred to the Partnership all of such holder’s right, title and interest in and to the Subject Units; and

(b)

the Partnership shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to such holder the applicable Cash Amount.

2.4

Effect of Exchange

(a)

Subject to compliance by the applicable holder of the Subject Units with the terms of this Schedule A, the Partnership (or Holdings for and on behalf of the Partnership) shall deliver or cause the Registrar and Transfer Agent to deliver to the relevant holder, as applicable (i) the applicable Exchanged Shares (which shares shall be duly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance), or (ii) a check representing the applicable Cash Amount, in each case, less any amounts withheld on account of tax pursuant to Section 5.4 of this Agreement, and such delivery by or on behalf of the Partnership or by the Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be deemed to be payment of and shall satisfy and discharge all liability for the total consideration payable or issuable.

(b)

On and after the close of business on the Exchange Date, the holders of the Subject Units shall cease to be holders of such Subject Units and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a holder in respect thereof, other than the right to receive the applicable consideration, unless payment of the consideration is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 2. On and after the close of business on the Exchange Date, provided that presentation and surrender of certificates (if applicable) and payment of the applicable consideration has been made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder of the Subject Units exchanged for Holdings Shares shall thereafter be considered and deemed for all purposes to be a holder of the Holdings Shares delivered to it.

(c)

As a condition to delivery of the consideration, the Partnership and the Registrar and Transfer Agent may require presentation and surrender at the office of the Partnership (or at any office of the Registrar and Transfer Agent as may be specified by the Partnership) of such documents and instruments as are contemplated by Section 2.1(b) of this Schedule A.

(d)

Notwithstanding Section 2.4(b) of this Schedule A, where a record date in respect of a distribution occurs prior to the Exchange Date and there is any declared and unpaid distribution on any Exchangeable Unit exchanged hereunder, subject to Section 4.1 of this Schedule A, such distribution shall remain payable and shall be paid in the applicable form on the designated payment date to the former holder of the Exchangeable Unit so exchanged hereunder.

(e)

If only a part of the Exchangeable Units represented by any certificate is exchanged, a new certificate for the balance of such Exchangeable Units shall be issued to the holder at the expense of the Partnership.

(f)

All filing fees, transfer taxes, sales taxes, document stamps or other similar charges levied by any Governmental Authority in connection with the repurchase of the Exchangeable Units pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Partnership; provided, however, that the holder of such Exchangeable Units shall pay any such fees, taxes, stamps or similar charges that may be payable as a result

of any transfer of the consideration payable in respect of such Exchangeable Units to a Person other than such holder. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party will bear its own costs in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

2.5

Revocation Right

A holder of Subject Units may, by notice in writing given by the holder to the Partnership before the close of business on the 5th Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date, withdraw its Exchange Notice, in which event such Exchange Notice shall be null and void.

2.6

Mandatory Exchange

In the event that:

(a)

at any time there remain outstanding fewer than five percent (5%) of the Exchangeable Units outstanding as of the Unit Effective Time (other than Exchangeable Units held by Holdings and as such number of Units may be adjusted in accordance with the Agreement to give effect to a Combination or Subdivision of, or unit distribution on, the Exchangeable Units, or any issue or distribution of rights to acquire Exchangeable Units or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Exchangeable Units following the Unit Effective Time); or

(b)

a Holdings Control Transaction occurs with respect to which the General Partner has determined in good faith that such Holdings Control Transaction involves a bona fide third party and is not for the primary purpose of causing the exchange of the Exchangeable Units in connection with such Holdings Control Transaction,

then on prior written notice given by the Partnership to the holders of Exchangeable Units at least fifteen days prior to such mandatory exchange, the Partnership may cause a mandatory exchange of all of the outstanding Exchangeable Units (which shall be deemed to be the Subject Units), on such date as is specified by the Partnership in such notice (which shall be deemed to be the Exchange Date), pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Schedule A, and for greater certainty, the holders of Exchangeable Units shall not have the right to revoke such mandatory exchange pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Schedule A.

2.7

Attached Voting Interests

(a)

Holdings and the Partnership shall enter into the Voting Trust Agreement substantially concurrently with the execution of this Agreement. For all purposes of this Agreement (including for all purposes of this Schedule A), each and every reference to an Exchangeable Unit shall be deemed also to refer to the corresponding Attached Voting Interest, and no Exchangeable Unit may be transferred, presented for exchange, or otherwise conveyed in any manner whatsoever unless accompanied by the corresponding Attached Voting Interest.

(b)

For the avoidance of doubt, all of the rights of a holder with respect to its Attached Voting Interest in respect of an Exchangeable Unit shall be deemed to

be surrendered by such holder, and such Attached Voting Interest shall cease to exist immediately, upon the exchange of such Exchangeable Unit pursuant to Article 2 of this Schedule A or the dissolution of Partnership. For the avoidance of any doubt, in no event shall the holder of any Exchangeable Units be entitled under any circumstance whatsoever to vote the Holdings Shares underlying such holder’s Exchangeable Units more than once by virtue of the Voting Trust Agreement.

2.8

Direct Exchange Right of Holdings

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 2 of this Schedule A or Section 3.4(c) of the Agreement, Holdings may to the extent required by Law or otherwise in its sole discretion, elect to effect the exchange of Subject Units for Exchanged Shares or the Cash Amount through a direct exchange of such Units and consideration between the holders of such Units and Holdings (a “Direct Exchange”). Holdings may, at any time prior to an Exchange Date, deliver written notice (a “Direct Exchange Notice”) to the Partnership and the holder of any Subject Units setting forth its election to exercise its right to consummate a Direct Exchange. A Direct Exchange Notice may be revoked by Holdings at any time; provided, that any such revocation does not prejudice the ability of the holders of Subject Units to consummate their Exchange Right on the Exchange Date. Upon Direct Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.8, Holdings shall acquire the Subject Units and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Units; provided, that in the hands of Holdings such Units shall be Common Units. Except as otherwise provided by this Section 2.8, a Direct Exchange shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in the same manner as the relevant exchange would have been consummated if Holdings had not delivered a Direct Exchange Notice.

ARTICLE 3

GENERAL

3.1

Amendments

The rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Exchangeable Units may be added to, changed or removed by the General Partner in good faith; provided, that the approval of the holders of at least eighty five percent (85%) of the outstanding Exchangeable Units (excluding any Exchangeable Units held by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries) shall be required in the case of any amendment that would adversely affect the rights, privileges, restrictions or conditions attaching to the Exchangeable Units relative to the Holdings Shares.

3.2

Fractional Shares
