1. Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
2. Redemption of Preferred Shares. Xxxxx REF hereby agrees to sell, transfer, grant, convey and assign the Preferred Shares to the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to purchase, receive, acquire and redeem the Preferred Shares and their respective accrued and unpaid dividends from Xxxxx REF, upon the closing date of the Company’s underwritten public offering of shares of Class A common stock (the “Redemption Date”), for an aggregate redemption price equal to the Series A Redemption Price (as defined in the Company’s Sixth Articles of Amendment and Restatement (the “Charter”)) for 100% of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, calculated as of the end of the day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, plus the Series B Redemption Price (as defined in the Charter) for 100% of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, calculated as of the end of the day immediately preceding the Redemption Date (collectively, the “Redemption Price”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force or effect without further action by any Party if the Preferred Shares are not redeemed on or before December 31, 2014. Xxxxx REF hereby agrees that the Dividend Waivers shall continue to be in effect through at least the earlier of the Redemption Date or June 30, 2014 (provided, however, that this period may be extended by the Company until December 31, 2014 so long as the Company is using good faith efforts to complete a listed public offering of its shares or other liquidity event that would result in the redemption of the Preferred Shares at the previously agreed-upon Redemption Price); and, thereafter, until such time as the Dividend Waivers may be prospectively revoked in writing by Xxxxx REF.
2. Section 5(c) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(c) Messrs.
