If such sale is consummated within such two hundred ten (210) calendar day period (subject to the sixty (60) calendar day extension set forth above, if applicable, to obtain consents), then the rights of ARCH and the Investor pursuant to this Section 8 shall terminate with respect to the applicable Equity Assets or Crestline Assets sold. If such sale is not consummated within such two hundred ten (210) calendar day period (subject to the sixty (60) calendar day extension set forth above, if applicable, to obtain consents) for any reason, then the restrictions provided for herein shall again become effective, and thereafter neither any Transfer Party nor Crestline, as applicable, may consummate a Crestline Sale without again offering the same to ARCH and the Investor in accordance with this Section 8, except, in each case, in the event that (1) neither ARCH nor the Investor exercised its option to purchase the applicable Equity Assets or Crestline Assets to be sold or (2) ARCH or the Investor exercised the option to purchase the applicable Equity Assets or Crestline Assets and a definitive agreement was executed in connection with such exercise but the applicable acquisition was never consummated solely as a result of a default in the obligation to consummate the acquisition under such definitive agreement by ARCH or the Investor, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of such definitive agreement.

(e) Each of ARCH, the OP and the Investor hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions described in this Section 8 and any applicable terms of the Amended Crestline Managed Agreements, no consent of ARCH, the OP, the Investor or any of their respective board of directors or similar governing body shall be required for Crestline or its equityholders to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the equity interests in, or assets of, Crestline.

For the avoidance of doubt, any sale of a Hotel that results in a Termination of this Agreement with respect to such Hotel and also complies with terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5.01 shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 20.01 of this Agreement.

Section 6.01.A. is amended to replace the entire current provision with the following:

In consideration of the services to be performed during the Term of this Agreement by Management Company, Management Company shall be paid a periodic base management fee (“Base Management Fee”) in the amount of three percent (3%) of Gross Revenues for each Accounting Period.

WAIVERS, REMEDIES

Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence.

UNIQUE LICENSE

Licensee further agrees and acknowledges that, in addition to all other rights that Licensor may have, Licensee acknowledges that its failure to perform any of the material terms or conditions of this Agreement shall result in immediate and irreparable damage to Licensor.

18)

SURVIVAL

Sections 5, 8-17, and this Section 18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, as shall any other of the provisions of this Agreement that by their terms or by implication are to have continuing effect after any such expiration or termination.

[see attached]

EXHIBIT D-4

SEPARATION AGREEMENT

THIS SEPARATION Agreement (this “Agreement”), by and among [_________________] (“Employee” or “you”) and AR Global Investments, LLC and ARC Advisory Services, LLC (collectively, the “Company” or “Employer”) is dated as of [•], 2017. Except as set forth in Section 12 below, this Agreement terminates the letter agreement between you and the Company dated [•], together with all prior versions and amendments thereto (the “Employment Agreement”).

1. SEPARATION Date. You hereby acknowledge that (i) your employment with the Company and the Employment Agreement are hereby terminated by mutual agreement effective as of the date hereof and your last day of employment is the date hereof (the “Separation Date”) and (ii) you have mutually agreed with Hospitality Investors Trust, Inc. (formerly known as American Realty Capital Hospitality Trust, Inc.) (the “REIT”) to commence employment with the REIT beginning on the date that is no later than five (5) business days after the Separation Date. From and after the Separation Date, you shall not represent yourself as being an employee, officer, agent or representative of the Company or any of its affiliates or related entities for any purpose (provided that, for purposes of this Agreement, neither the REIT nor any of its subsidiaries shall constitute an affiliate or related entity of the Company). You will be paid by the Company for all accrued salary, bonus and accumulated paid time off through the Separation Date. You will not earn any salary, bonus or other compensation following the Separation Date other than as set forth below in Section 2. Your medical benefits from the Company will end on the date hereof. For purposes of any restricted stock grants, the termination of your employment and the Employment Agreement hereunder is deemed to be “without cause” and therefore such restricted stock grants shall become fully vested on the date hereof.

2. Consideration. In exchange for your agreement to the terms and conditions in this Agreement, including and subject to the execution and delivery of the release and waiver of claims provided in Exhibit 1 hereto (the “Release”), the Company hereby agrees to provide the following additional consideration and benefits, which you acknowledge and agree exceed any payment, benefit, or other thing of value to which you might otherwise be entitled under any policy, plan or procedure of the Company and/or any agreement between you and the Company:

a. The Company will accelerate and pay (subject to any applicable withholding required by applicable law) (x) your bonus with respect to fiscal year 2016 (in the amount of $___) , (y) your 401(k) plan match with respect to fiscal year 2016 (in the amount of $___), and (z) a pro rata portion of your bonus with respect to fiscal year 2017 for the portion of 2017 elapsed through the Separation Date (in the amount of $___); and

b. Your employment with the REIT (or any successor thereto by merger, transfer or otherwise) shall not be deemed a violation at any time of the non-competition or non-contract provisions in Section [3] of the Employment Agreement.

Other than the foregoing, no other payments, incentives or benefits shall be paid. It is understood and agreed that if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement, including any of your covenants in this Agreement (which include the covenants in the Employment Agreement that continue in full force and effect in accordance with Section 12 below), the Company shall have no further obligation to provide you with any additional payments, commissions or benefits and you agree to return to the Company all payments you have received from the Company.

3. Confidentiality of Agreement. You agree that you will keep confidential and not disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company, except to your financial advisor(s), attorney(s) and/or spouse (provided that you first inform them of the confidentiality of this Agreement and they agree to maintain its confidentiality) and the REIT and its representatives. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits the Employee from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation.

The Employer acknowledges and agrees that Employee does not need the prior authorization of Employer to make any such reports or disclosures and Employee is not required to notify the Employer that it may make or has made such reports or disclosures.

4. Non-Admission of Wrongdoing. This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be construed, as an admission by you or by the Company or any of its affiliates or related entities (which, together with the Company, are referred to below as the "Company Entities") that you or any of the Company Entities have violated any federal, state or local law (statutory or decisional), ordinance or regulation, breached any contract or policy, or committed any wrong whatsoever against the other party.

5. Non-competition and restrictive covenant affirmation. You hereby acknowledge, agree and affirm that non-competition and other restrictive covenants set forth in your Employment Agreement, the Non-Compete Release Agreement and the Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms other than as expressly modified herein or in the Non-Compete Release Agreement.

6. non-disparagement. You agree that you will not disparage or encourage or induce others to disparage the entities and persons listed on Exhibit 2 attached hereto. The Company shall and shall direct its senior management team (specifically, Messrs. Schorsch, Kahane, Budko and Weil) and their families not to disparage or encourage or induce others to disparage you. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “disparage” includes the making of false, defamatory or derogatory comments that could reasonably be expected to damage the reputation of you or the Company Entities (or any of their officers, executives, or personnel); provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall restrict communications protected as privileged under federal or state law to testimony or communications ordered and required by a court or an administrative agency of competent jurisdiction.

7. RETURN OF COMPANY EQUIPMENT, DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION. You will promptly return to the Company all Company documents, data, intellectual property and information (whether in hard copy, electronic, or any other form) that you received from the Company or created or received in connection with your employment with the Company and that relate solely to the Company (and not to the REIT or any of its subsidiaries). You further agree to delete or destroy any and all copies of such documents, data, intellectual property or information on or before the Separation Date that may be stored on any computing device or data storage mechanism in your possession, custody or control.

8. Material Breach. Any breach of the provisions of Sections 3, 6, and/or 7 above, shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. In the event that you have committed a material breach of this Agreement, you:

a. consent to the entry of injunctive relief against yourself, and the cessation by the Company of any further payments to you, in addition to the Company’s right to pursue any and all of their remedies under the law and under this Agreement. You further understand and agree that all of the Company Entities other than the Company itself are third-party beneficiaries under this Agreement, and each may, on its own or together with other Company affiliates, obtain injunctive relief without the posting of a bond; and

b. agree that, in the event any Company Entity pursues legal remedies against you, you shall pay and reimburse the relevant Company Entity for its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in any such civil action in court to enforce their rights under this Agreement in the event that the Company Entity is the prevailing party in such action.

9. NOTIFICATION OF THIRD PARTIES. Employee and the Company hereby agree to jointly notify any third parties which Employee was working with on behalf of the Company prior to the Separation Date.

10. Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, including the successors and assigns of the Company Entities.

11. Governing Law and Enforcement. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of law. Additionally, any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement shall be commenced exclusively in the federal or state courts in New York County in the City and State of New York. Both parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in New York County, agree not to seek to transfer or remove the action to another court, waive any claim under the doctrine of forum non conveniens, and waive their right to a trial by jury.

12. Entire Agreement. You understand that this Agreement (together with the Omnibus Waiver and Release Agreement executed by you on or prior to the date hereof (the “Non-Compete Release Agreement”)) constitutes the complete understanding between the Company and you, and, supersedes any and all agreements, understandings, and discussions, whether written or oral, between you and any of the Company Entities, and provided that (a) if there is a conflict between this Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern, and (b) the Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement between the Employee and Company shall continue in full force and effect except as modified by the overlapping provisions herein, and (c) in the event of any conflict between this Agreement, the Non-Compete Release Agreement and the Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement, then the terms of the Non-Compete Release Agreement shall govern. Furthermore, no modifications shall be made to this Agreement, unless such modification is made in writing and signed by both the Company and you.

13. Effective Date; ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. If you do not sign this Agreement and execute and deliver the Release, you will be deemed not to have accepted the terms of this Agreement or the Release, and (i) no further action will be required of the Company under any section of this Agreement or Release, (ii) your termination of employment will still be effective as of the Separation Date, and (iii) you will remain subject to your agreements and covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement and Employee Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement. You acknowledge that you: (a) have carefully read this Agreement in its entirety; (b) have had an opportunity to consider the terms; (c) have had an opportunity to consult with an attorney of your choice before signing this Agreement; (d) fully understand the significance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (e) agree to abide by all the terms and conditions contained herein.

14. HEADINGS. The parties agree that the Paragraph headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and do not limit in any way the meaning of the language in each Paragraph.

15. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and, when executed by all parties to this Agreement, will constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile and email transmissions of this Agreement signed by any party hereto will be deemed an original counterpart and binding.

The Service Provider shall devote such time and resources to the performance of the Services hereunder as it shall determine to be reasonably necessary to fully perform its obligations hereunder.

At all times during the Term, neither Service Provider nor the Company will intentionally or knowingly introduce, and each will take commercially reasonable measures to prevent the introduction of, into Service Provider’s or the Company’s computer systems, databases, or software any viruses or any other contaminants (including, but not limited to, codes, commands, instructions, devices, techniques, bugs, web bugs, or design flaws) that may be used to access (without authorization), alter, delete, threaten, infect, assault, vandalize, defraud, disrupt, damage, disable, inhibit, or shut down another Party's computer systems, databases, software, or other information or property. Except as may be required in connection with the provision of the Services, neither Service Provider nor the Company will intentionally or knowingly tamper with, compromise, or attempt to circumvent any physical or electronic security or audit measures employed by the other in the course of its business operations, and/or intentionally or knowingly compromise the security of the other’s computer systems and/or networks.

(f) Each of Service Provider and the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the other and shall cause their respective Affiliates to reasonably cooperate (i) in notifying the other of any Security Breach affecting Service Provider or the Company and (ii) in any investigation and mitigation efforts relating to such Security Breaches, in each case, in such party’s reasonable discretion and subject to applicable law.

⁶Note to Draft: Applicable for Crestline TSA only.

(b) Service Provider agrees to treat all Confidential Information provided by the Company, or which Service Provider otherwise has access to, pursuant to this Agreement as proprietary and confidential to the Company and to hold such Confidential Information in confidence. Service Provider shall not (without the prior written consent of the Company) disclose or permit disclosure of such Confidential Information to any third party; provided, that, Service Provider may disclose such Confidential Information as permitted by Section 6(c) and to its third party subcontractors and its Affiliates’ current employees, officers, or directors, or legal or financial representatives, in each case, who have a legitimate need to know such Confidential Information and who have previously agreed either in writing or orally (including as a condition of their employment, contract or agency) to be bound by terms respecting the protection of such Confidential Information which are no less protective as the terms of this Agreement). Service Provider agrees to safeguard all Confidential Information of the Company with at least the same degree of care (which in no event shall be less than reasonable care) as Service Provider uses to protect its own Confidential Information but no less than a reasonable degree of care. Service Provider shall only use the Company’s Confidential Information solely for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement and providing the Services to the Company. Service Provider shall not, at any time, collect, use, sell, license, transfer, make available or disclose the Company’s Confidential Information for its own benefit, the benefit of its Affiliates (or agents, subcontractors or representatives) or for the benefit of others. Service Provider will be responsible for any violation of the confidentiality provisions of Section 6 by its subcontractors and its Affiliates’ employees, officers and directors, and legal or financial representatives.

(c) Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the following information shall not be deemed Confidential Information, and the receiving Party shall have no confidentiality, non-use or nondisclosure obligation with respect to any such information to the extent that it: (i) is in the public domain or becomes available in the public domain by no fault or wrongful act of Service Provider in violation of this Agreement, (ii) was independently developed by Service Provider or any other Persons without the use of any Confidential Information, (iii) was already in the Service Provider’s possession on a non-confidential basis or (iv) is approved for release by written authorization of the Company and/or the third party owner of the disclosed information. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that Confidential Information may be disclosed pursuant to the lawful requirement or order of a court or governmental agency, or as otherwise required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including as required in any securities law filings or offering documentation); provided that prompt notice thereof is given to the non-disclosing Party (unless such notice is not possible under the circumstances, and in such event, such notice shall be provided as promptly as possible thereafter) so that such non-disclosing Party may, at its sole cost and expense, have the opportunity to intervene and contest such disclosure and/or seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy.

(d) All Confidential Information transmitted or disclosed hereunder will be and remain the property of the Company, and Service Provider shall promptly (at the Service Provider’s sole election) destroy or return to the Company all copies thereof upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, or upon the written request of the Company; provided, that, Service Provider shall not be required to destroy any Confidential Information that is stored solely as a result of a backup created in the ordinary course of business and is not readily destroyable or that is stored on the computers of the personnel of Service Provider and/or its Affiliates and subject to deletion in accordance with Service Provider’s and/or its Affiliates’ electronic information management practices (subject to extended retention by Service Provider’s or its Affiliates’ compliance and legal department personnel in accordance with the existing document retention/destruction policy of Service Provider and/or its Affiliates). Upon the request of the Company, Service Provider shall provide notice of any such applicable destruction in writing.

(e) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, given the unique and proprietary nature of the Confidential Information, monetary damages may not be calculable or a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 6 by Service Provider or its Affiliates, and that the Company may suffer great and irreparable injury as a consequence of such breach. Accordingly, each Party agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, the Company shall be entitled to seek equitable relief (including, but not limited to, injunction and specific performance) in order to remedy such breach or threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive remedies for a breach by Service Provider or its Affiliates but shall be in addition to any and all other remedies provided hereunder or available at law or equity to the Company.

6. Amendments. This Agreement shall not be changed, modified, terminated or discharged in whole or in part except by an instrument in writing signed by all Parties, or their respective successors or permitted assigns, or otherwise as provided herein.

7. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, except to a Person which is a successor to all or substantially of the assets of the assigning Party. Any assignee shall be bound hereunder to the same extent as the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the economic rights of the Service Provider hereunder, including the right to receive all compensation hereunder, may be sold, transferred or assigned by the Service Provider, without the consent of the Company.

8. Action Upon Termination. From and after the date of termination of this Agreement, the Service Provider shall not be entitled to compensation for further service rendered hereunder but shall be reimbursed for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses accrued through the date of such termination within ten (10) business days of such termination. The Service Provider shall forthwith upon such termination:

(a) pay over to the Company all moneys collected and held for the account of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, after deducting any accrued compensation and reimbursement for its expenses to which it is then entitled; and

(b) deliver to the Company a full accounting, including a statement showing all payments collected by it and a statement of all moneys held by it, covering the period following the date of the last accounting furnished to the Company.

The remedies provided in this Section 10(a) constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company for any and all Damages or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement.

(b) Indemnification of the Service Provider by the Company.

(c) The Company will advance amounts to the Service Provider or its Affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action for which indemnification is being sought only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Company and (ii) the Service Provider or its Affiliates undertake in writing to repay the advanced funds to the Company, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases in which the Service Provider or its Affiliates are found not to be entitled to indemnification.

10. Limitation on Liability.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.01. Registrations.

(a) Registration Requests. If at any time there are outstanding Registrable Securities, any of (i) Brookfield, (ii) Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities (the “Demanding Holders”), (iii) the Advisor, or (iv) the Property Manager may from time to time and at any time make a written request to the Company for Registration of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by them (i) on a Demand Registration Statement (a “Demand Request”) at any time the Company is only eligible to use Form S-11 or S-1 or any similar long-form Registration Statement or (ii) on a Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Request”) at any time the Company is qualified to use Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement. Any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement shall be for the registered resale of Registrable Securities by their Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Holders and set forth therein. So long as a Shelf Registration Statement is effective with respect to any Registrable Securities, no Request pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be made with respect to such Registrable Securities.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.01(c) and (e), promptly upon receiving any Request requiring the Company to file a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a Registration Statement relating to such Request (i) in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, within sixty (60) days after receipt of a Demand Request for such Registration and (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, within thirty (30) days after receipt of a Request for such Registration, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof with the SEC. No Registration shall be deemed to have been effected if (i) during the Demand Period or Shelf Period such Registration is interfered with by any stop order injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court or (ii) the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied other than by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable underwriting agreement by a Holder.

(c) Limitation on Registrations. Brookfield and the Demanding Holders shall collectively have the right to make up to three (3) Requests in any twelve (12) month period. The Advisor and the Property Manager shall, collectively, have the right to make one (1) Request. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and unless otherwise consented to by the Board), (i) Brookfield, the Advisor, the Property Manager and the Demanding Holders may collectively make no more than (A) three (3) Requests in any twelve (12) month period or (B) more than one (1) Request in any three (3) month period and (ii) in no event shall the Company be required to file more than three (3) Registration Statements in any twelve (12) month period.

(d) Reduction Securities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that the SEC limits the amount of Registrable Securities that may be included and sold by Holders in any Registration Statement, including any Shelf Registration Statement or Demand Registration Statement, pursuant to Rule 415 or any other basis, the Company may reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement on behalf of the Holders in whole or in part (in case of an exclusion as to a portion of such Registrable Securities, such portion shall be allocated pro rata among such Holders in proportion to the respective numbers of Registrable Securities represented by Shares requested to be registered by each such Holder over the total amount of Registrable Securities represented by Shares) (such Registrable Securities, the “Reduction Securities”); provided, however, that prior to making any such reduction, the Company shall be obligated to use its reasonable best efforts to advocate with the SEC for the Registration of all of the Registrable Securities. In such event the Company shall give the Holders prompt notice of the number of such Reduction Securities excluded and the Company will not be liable for any damages under this Agreement in connection with the exclusion of such Reduction Securities. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts at the first opportunity that is permitted by the SEC to Register for resale the Reduction Securities. Such new Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to Register for resale the Reduction Securities on Form S-3, in which case such Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form for such purpose). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as possible, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act during the entire Demand Period or Shelf Period, as applicable.

(e) Delay in Filing; Suspension of Registration. If a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Shelf Registration Statement or a Demand Registration Statement at any time would (i) render the Company unable to comply with applicable securities laws, (ii) require the inclusion or filing of financial statements under Rules 3-05 or 3-14 or Article 11 under the Securities Act with respect to an acquisition at a significance level of greater than 50% that the Company is reasonably unable to include or file at such time or (iii) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement (a “Suspension”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted to exercise a Suspension for a period of more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days on any one occasion or an aggregate of ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period, and in any case not more than three (3) times in any twelve (12) month period. In the case of a Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon receipt of the notice referred to above, and agree to keep the fact of any Suspension strictly confidential. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders upon the termination of any Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Holders may reasonably request. The Company agrees, if necessary, to supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement that is subject to a Suspension, if required by the Securities Act, including the undertakings required to be included in any Registration Statement pursuant to Item 512 of Regulation S-K.

Section 2.02. Demand Registration.

(a) Demand Registration. Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the kind and aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be Registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof.

(b) Demand Notice. Promptly upon receipt of any Demand Request on a date on which the Company is not eligible to file a Shelf Registration Statement (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Company shall deliver a written notice (a “Demand Notice”) of any such Registration request to all other Holders, and the Company shall include in such Demand Registration Statement all such Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days after the date that the Demand Notice has been delivered. All requests made pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method of distribution of such securities. If any Holder does not deliver a notice within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the Demand Notice, such Holder shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any and all rights under this Section 2.02 with respect to such Registration (but not with respect to future Registrations in accordance with this Section 2.02(b)).

(c) Demand Withdrawal. Any Holder that has requested its Registrable Securities be included in a Demand Registration pursuant to Sections 2.02(a) or 2.02(b), may withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration by providing written notice to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the time of pricing of such Underwritten Offering. The Company shall continue its reasonable best efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement in respect of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder that has requested inclusion in the Demand Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or 2.02(b) so long as the Initiating Holder has not withdrawn all of its Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration Statement; provided, however, if the Initiating Holder has requested for all of its Registrable Securities to be withdrawn from such Demand Registration Statement, the Company shall immediately cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement, even if one or more other Holders have requested for Registrable Securities to be included in such applicable Demand Request pursuant to Section 2.02(b) and such withdrawn Demand Registration Statement shall not count towards the limitation on Registration Statements set forth in Section 2.01(c).

(d) Effective Registration. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC and to remain effective for not less than one hundred eighty (180) days (or such shorter period as shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn) (the applicable period, the “Demand Period”).

Section 2.03. Shelf Registration.

(a) Filing.

(i) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.01(c) and (e), if a Shelf Request is made, the Company shall¹file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale by Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Initiating Holder and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and, as promptly practicable thereafter, shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act. Each Shelf Request shall specify the kind of Registrable Securities to be Registered, the intended methods of disposition thereof and, unless the Company is a WKSI at the time of such Shelf Request, the aggregate amount thereof. At any time prior to or after the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement, a Holder may request, which request shall be deemed a Shelf Request for purposes of Section 2.01(c), that the number of its Registrable Securities previously requested to be registered on such Shelf Registration Statement be increased to a larger number of its Registrable Securities and the Company shall thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to take all actions reasonably necessary to effect such increase for such Shelf Registration Statement as promptly as practicable thereafter, which actions may include causing a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to be filed or filing a new Shelf Registration Statement; provided, that such requests by any Holder and such filings by the Company shall be subject to the limitations of Section 2.01(c). If, on the date of any such request, the Company does not qualify to file a Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities Act, such request shall be deemed to be a Demand Request for purposes of Section 2.01(c) and the Company’s obligations under Section 2.02 shall apply with respect to such request.

(ii) If, on the date of the Shelf Request, the Company is a WKSI, then the Holders should be permitted to include in such Shelf Request an unspecified amount of Registrable Securities. The Company shall provide to the Holders the information necessary to determine the Company’s status as a WKSI upon request.

(b) Continued Effectiveness. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders until such date as all Registrable Securities covered thereby cease to be Registrable Securities (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”).

¹ Note to Xxxxxx: Time periods in 2.01(b)

(c) Shelf Notice. Promptly upon receipt of a Shelf Request pursuant to Section 2.03(a) (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Company shall deliver a written notice (a “Shelf Notice”) of the receipt of such request, describing it in reasonable detail, to all other Holders. If the Company is not a WKSI, the Company shall offer each such Holder the opportunity to include in the Shelf Registration Statement the number of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days after the date that the Shelf Notice has been delivered. If any such Holder receiving the Shelf Notice does not deliver a notice within five (5) Business Days after the date that the Shelf Notice has been delivered, such Holder shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any and all right under this Section 2.03with respect to such Registration (but not with respect to future Registrations in accordance with this Section 2.03). If the Company is a WKSI, no Holder shall be required to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Shelf Registration Statement until such time that the Company delivers a WKSI Takedown Request in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.03(d) hereunder.

(d) WKSI Takedown. In the event that the Company is a WKSI and has filed a Shelf Registration Statement registering an unspecified amount of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(ii), an offering or sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement may be initiated at any time and from time to time during the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement, by notice to the Company specifying the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, by written request of an Initiating Holder to the Company (each, a “WKSI Takedown Request”) to effect a public offering of all or a portion of an Initiating Holder’s Registrable Securities that are covered or will be covered by such Shelf Registration Statement. As soon as practicable after the receipt of a WKSI Takedown Request the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as necessary for such purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, a WKSI Takedown Request with respect to an Underwritten Offering and shall be subject to the procedures, conditions and restrictions set forth in Section 2.07(a).

(e) Distributions of Registrable Securities to Partners or Members. In the event any Holder requests to participate in a Registration pursuant to this Section 2.03 in connection with a distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners or members, the Registration shall provide for resale by such partners or members, if requested by the Holder and provided such Registrable Securities have been assigned to such partners or members in accordance with Section 3.04 in connection with such distribution.

Section 2.07. Underwritten Offerings.

(a) Underwritten Offering Requests. Upon the written request of any Initiating Holder from time to time for an Underwritten Offering under a Registration Statement filed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (an “Underwritten Offering Request”), the Company shall (A) promptly give written notice of such Underwritten Offering Request to the other Holders and (B) cooperate with such Initiating Holder and any underwriter, as well as any other Holders that have requested that their Registrable Securities be included in such Underwritten Offering within two (2) Business Days after receiving the notice from the Company in clause (A) above, in effecting an Underwritten Offering under any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable following receipt of such Underwritten Offering Request; provided, however, that (x) all Holders shall not be entitled to make in the aggregate more than three (3) Underwritten Offering Requests that result in priced Underwritten Offerings in any twelve (12) month period; and (y) any such Initiating Holder may withdraw or abandon the Underwritten Offering Request at any time prior to any Underwritten Offering becoming priced. Each Underwritten Offering Request will specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed by the Holder to be included in such Underwritten Offering, the intended method of distribution and the estimated gross proceeds of such Underwritten Offering, which may not be less than $50,000,000. If requested by the underwriters for any Underwritten Offering, the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, such agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the Initiating Holder and the underwriters, and to contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, including indemnities no less favorable to the recipient thereof than those provided in Section 2.10. Participating Holders shall cooperate with the Company in the negotiation and shall give consideration to the reasonable suggestions of the Company regarding the form thereof. Such Holders shall be parties to such underwriting agreement, which underwriting agreement shall (i) contain such representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such Holders as are customarily made by issuers to selling stockholders in secondary underwritten public offerings and (ii) provide that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also shall be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holders, such Holder’s title to the Registrable Securities, such Holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representations required to be made by such Holder under applicable law, and the aggregate amount of the liability of such Holder shall not exceed such Holder’s net proceeds from such Underwritten Offering.

(b) Priority.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.07, in the case of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to an Underwritten Offering Request, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of an Underwritten Offering advise the selling Holders that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such Underwritten Offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, the securities to be included in such Underwritten Offering (i) first, shall be allocated to the Initiating Holder and, if the Demanding Holders are the Initiating Holder, pro rata among the Demanding Holders that have requested to participate in such Underwritten Offering based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder (provided that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner) and (ii) next, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of securities that the Company and any other Holder that has a right to participate in such Underwritten Offering proposes to include in such Underwritten Offering that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters can be sold without having such adverse effect.

(ii) The Company will have the right to delay an Underwritten Offering by an Initiating Holder following receipt of an Underwritten Offering Request if the Company, not more than 30 days prior to receipt of such request indicated intent (either by (i) circulating to prospective underwriters and their counsel a draft of a Registration Statement for a primary offering of equity securities of the Company, (ii) soliciting bids for a primary offering of equity securities of the Company, or (iii) otherwise reaching an understanding with an underwriter with respect to a primary offering of equity securities of the Company), and intends to effect its own Underwritten Offering by giving the Initiating Holder written notice of such intent (a “Stand-Down Notice”), whereby the Company’s obligation to cooperate with the Initiating Holder and any underwriter in effecting an Underwritten Offering shall be suspended until the later of the Resumption Date (as defined below) and the expiration of any lock-up agreement required to be entered into by the Initiating Holder pursuant to Section 2.05; provided, however, that (x) the Company will not be entitled to deliver a Stand-Down Notice in respect of an Underwritten Offering Request later than 5 p.m. New York time on the third (3rd) Business Day following receipt of such Underwritten Offering Request; (y) the Company will not be entitled to more than one (1) Stand-Down Notice in any twelve (12) month period; and (z) the Company will be deemed to have rescinded the Stand-Down Notice automatically, whereby the Company’s obligation to cooperate with the Initiating Holder and any underwriter in effecting an Underwritten Offering shall resume, if (I) the Launch Date in respect of the Company’s Underwritten Offering has not occurred by the end of the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date of the Underwritten Offering Request or (II) the Company’s Underwritten Offering has not been priced by the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Launch Date (the date following automatic rescission of a Stand-Down Notice pursuant to either clause (I) and clause (II) above, a “Resumption Date”). The Holders acknowledge and agree that the receipt of any Stand-Down Notice may constitute material non-public information regarding the Company and shall keep the existence and contents of any Stand-Down Notice confidential.

(c) Piggyback Registrations. In connection with any Underwritten Offering of shares of the Company’s equity Securities pursuant to Section 2.04, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering unless such selling Holders accept the terms of the Underwritten Offering as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters. In connection with any proposed Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities included in a Piggyback Registration pursuant to Section 2.04, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such proposed Underwritten Offering informs the Company in writing (a copy of which shall be provided to the Holders) that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities which such Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such Underwritten Offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities to be included in such Underwritten Offering shall be allocated (i) first, 100% of the securities proposed to be sold in such Underwritten Offering by the Company or (subject to Section 2.08) any Person (other than a Holder) exercising a contractual right to demand Registration, as the case may be, proposes to sell, and (ii) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of Registrable Securities that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated pro rata among the Holders that have requested to participate in such Underwritten Offering based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder (provided that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner) and (iii) third, and only if all of the Registrable Securities referred to in clause (ii) have been included in such Underwritten Offering, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such Underwritten Offering.

(d) Participation in Underwritten Registrations. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07(a) and Section 2.07(c) above and this Section 2.07(d), no Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled to approve such arrangements and (ii) promptly completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

(e) Underwriters, Price and Underwriting Discounts. In the case of an Underwritten Offering under Section 2.07(a), the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for the Registrable Securities shall be determined in good faith by the Initiating Holder, and the Initiating Holder shall have the right to select one or more underwriters for such Underwritten Offering; provided, that any underwriter must be approved by the Company, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the case of any Underwritten Offering under Section 2.04, the Company shall have the sole right to determine the underwriters and all other matters affecting the Underwritten Offering, including the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms of the Underwritten Offering.

(f) Withdrawal. In the case of any Underwritten Offering under Section 2.07(a) or 2.04, each of the Holders may withdraw all or part of their Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering any Holder may elect to withdraw all or part of its Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw; provided, that (i) such request must be made in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier of the anticipated Launch Date and the anticipated pricing or trade date of such Underwritten Offering and (ii) such withdrawal shall be irrevocable and, after making such withdrawal, the Holder shall no longer have any right to include Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering as to which such withdrawal was made.

Section 2.08. No Inconsistent Agreements.

All such expenses are referred to herein as “Registration Expenses.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any Registration Expenses in connection with any Registration begun pursuant to Sections 2.02 or 2.03(a) if the applicable request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holder (in which case the Initiating Holder shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders agree to forfeit their right to one Registration provided for in Section 2.01(c). The Company shall not be required to pay underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities.

Section 2.10. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder, each member, limited or general partner thereof, each member, limited or general partner of each such member, limited or general partner, each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, advisors, and agents and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) such Persons and each of their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses) (each, a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were Registered under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein) or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries including, without limitation, reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (iii) any actions or inactions or proceedings in respect of the foregoing whether or not such indemnified party is a party thereto; provided, that the Company shall not be liable to any particular indemnified party (A) to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any such Registration Statement or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an indemnified party expressly for use in the preparation thereof or (B) to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission in a preliminary Prospectus relating to Registrable Securities, if a Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) that would have cured the defect was furnished to the indemnified party from whom the Person asserting the claim giving rise to such Loss purchased Registrable Securities prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to such Person and a copy of such Prospectus (as amended and supplemented) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such indemnified party to such Person at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to such Person. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder.

(b) Indemnification by the Participating Holders. Each Participating Holder agrees (severally and not jointly) to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any Losses resulting from(i) any untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were Registered under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein), or (ii) any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement and has not been corrected in a subsequent writing prior to or concurrently with the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting the claim. In no event shall the liability of such Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation less any amounts paid by such Participating Holder pursuant to Section 2.10(d) and any amounts paid by such Holder as a result of liabilities incurred under the underwriting agreement, if any, related to such sale. The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above (with appropriate modification) with respect to information furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person, (C) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, or (D) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person). If the indemnifying party assumes the defense, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to settle such action without the consent of the indemnified party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No indemnifying party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of such indemnified party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its prior written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, except as specifically set forth in this Section 2.10(c), in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements or other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time unless (x) the employment of more than one counsel has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party or parties, (y) an indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the other indemnified parties or (z) a conflict or potential conflict exists or may exist (based upon advice of counsel to an indemnified party) between such indemnified party and the other indemnified parties, in each of which cases the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

(d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.10 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to therein (other than as a result of exceptions contained in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.10), then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the acts, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, (as well as any other relevant equitable considerations). In connection with any Registration Statement filed with the SEC by the Company, the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.10(d). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.10(d), in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company, a Participating Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation less any amounts paid by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.10(b) and any amounts paid by such Holder as a result of liabilities incurred under the underwriting agreement, if any, related to such sale. If indemnification is available under this Section 2.10and sufficient in respect of all Losses referred to under this Section 2.10, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) hereof without regard to the provisions of this Section 2.10(d).

Section 3.07. Governing Law; Injunctive Relief. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the Laws of the State of New York without regard to any choice of Laws or conflict of Laws provisions that would require the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

It is accordingly agreed that each of the parties shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages) to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief, without proof of actual damages, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement exclusively in any state or federal courts located in the City of New York and any appellate court therefrom within the State of New York, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity for any such breach.

The parties hereto agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 3.07 a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek at any time any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement and (ii) the commencement of any action or proceeding pursuant to this Section 3.07 or anything set forth in this Section 3.07 shall not restrict or limit any party’s right to pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter.

In addition, each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by any party or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in any state or federal courts located in the City of New York and any appellate court therefrom within the State of New York. The parties further agree that no party to this Agreement shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 3.08 and each party waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 3.08, (b) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (i) the action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such action or proceeding is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereby consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 3.02 and agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid) to the respective addresses set forth in Section 3.02 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. EACH OF THE PARTIES KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 3.09. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, including the other Transaction Documents, constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including Section 3.04), no Holder or other party hereto may assign any of its respective rights or delegate any of its respective obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any attempted assignment or delegation in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void.

Section 3.10. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. Upon such a declaration by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and signatures may be delivered by facsimile or in electronic format, each of which may be executed by less than all the parties, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

Section 3.12. No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, the Company and each Holder covenant, agree and acknowledge that no recourse under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be had against any former, current or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, equity holder, controlling Person, portfolio company, manager, advisor, managing member, member, general partner, limited partner, principal or other agent of any Holder or of any Affiliate or assignee thereof (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company and Opco, the “Non-Recourse Parties”), as such, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no Liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any Non-Recourse Party, as such, for any obligation of any Holder under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of the respective obligations of such Holder under this Agreement. Without limiting the rights of any party against any other party hereto, in no event shall any party or any party’s Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party. Each party hereby waives and releases all such Liability. This waiver and release is a material inducement to each party’s entry into this Agreement.
