 REMOVAL

 Section 3.1 Removal Right. Commencing July 1, 2016, the Sponsor shall have the right, pursuant to

Forecasted Distributed Cash of the ROFO Asset to be removed. 
 Section 3.2 Removal Process. 

(a) Within ten (10) Business Days of the closing of a sale or contribution of a Non-ROFO Asset to the Operating Company, the Sponsor
shall deliver to the Operating Company a notice (the “Removal Notice”) setting forth its formal request to remove a ROFO Asset from Annex A (the “Removal Request”), including the name of the ROFO Asset to be
removed and a calculation of the Forecasted Distributed Cash of such ROFO Asset and of the Non-ROFO Asset previously contributed or sold to the Operating Company (together, the “Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation”).

Forecasted Distributed Cash of the ROFO Asset, the Removal Request shall be deemed to be immediately rejected. If, based upon the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation, the Forecasted Distributed Cash of the Non-ROFO Asset is greater than or equal
to the Forecasted Distributed Cash of the ROFO Asset, the Operating Company will be afforded a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Removal Notice to review the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation, during which period
the

Operating Company and its advisors shall have the right to inspect the work papers generated by the Sponsor in preparation of the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation and shall have reasonable
access, during normal business hours, to the relevant personnel of the Sponsor and to information, books and records of the Sponsor, in each case, related to such Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation. At or before the end of such thirty
(30) day review period, the Operating Company will either (i) accept the Removal Request and execute an amendment to this Agreement removing the applicable ROFO Asset from Annex A, or (ii) deliver to the Sponsor a written
explanation of those items in the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation that the Operating Company disputes. If the Operating Company fails to accept or dispute the Removal Request before the end of the thirty (30) day review period set forth
above, the Removal Request shall be deemed to be accepted and the Operating Company shall be obligated to execute an amendment to this Agreement removing the applicable ROFO Asset from Annex A. Within a further period of ten (10) days
from the end of the aforementioned review period, the Sponsor and the Operating Company will attempt to resolve in good faith any disputed items (the “Resolution Period”). 

(c) Failing a resolution during the Resolution Period, the Sponsor may, for a period of ten (10) Business Days after the end of the
Resolution Period, engage an Independent Valuation Expert to resolve the dispute. The Independent Valuation Expert shall promptly review the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation and any disputed items thereto and each Party shall provide the
Independent Valuation Expert with additional information, including access to all relevant books and records, as the Independent Valuation Expert may reasonably request in order to analyze the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation. As promptly as
practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after its engagement, the Independent Valuation Expert shall deliver to the Parties a written notification, which shall set forth its decision regarding the Forecasted Distributed
Cash Calculation. The decision of the Independent Valuation Expert with respect to the Forecasted Distributed Cash Calculation shall be final and binding on the Parties. 

(d) Any costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Expert shall be paid by the non-prevailing Party or as otherwise reasonably determined
by the Independent Valuation Expert.
