(a) Subject to any restrictions set forth in the Governance Agreement and Section 2.01(b), each Holder shall be
entitled from time to time after the second anniversary of this Agreement and upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, to surrender Common Units to the Company in exchange (such exchange, an “Exchange” and such Holder,
an “Exchanging Holder”) for the delivery by the Company to the Exchanging Holder at the option of the Company of either (i) a number of shares of Common Stock that is equal to the product of the number of Common Units to be
Exchanged multiplied by the Exchange Rate, (ii) a Cash Exchange Payment or (iii) a combination of shares of Common Stock and a Cash Exchange Payment; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and subject to
Section 2.01(b), each Holder (with a Holder and its Affiliates being treated as a single Holder) shall not be entitled to effect an Exchange (x) upon more than one occasion during any
one-hundred-eighty (180) consecutive day period, (y) with respect to fewer than the Minimum Amount of Common Units or (z) with respect to more than the Maximum Amount of Common Units.
Simultaneous with any such Exchange (without duplication of any Units otherwise issued in connection with contributions under the LLC Agreement not being conducted under this Agreement), the Company shall issue a number of Common Units to Gazelle
Holdco equal to the number of Common Units surrendered in such Exchange. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary
(i) prior to obtaining the Stockholder Approval, neither the Company nor any Parent Party may effect any Exchange by delivery of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i), to the extent such Exchange,
together with all other Exchanges pursuant to this Agreement, would result in Parent issuing a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Cap; provided that, in such event, the Company or Gazelle Holdco, as applicable, shall be deemed
to have provided an Election Notice with respect to (and shall make a Cash Exchange Payment for) the number of Common Units the exchange of which would result in Parent issuing shares of Common Stock in excess of the Cap, (ii) neither the
Company nor any Parent Party shall be obligated to effect any Exchange for a Cash Exchange Payment in the circumstances described in Section 2.01(b)(i) to the extent that such exchange would constitute a breach or default
under a Specified Contract; provided that in such event, interest shall accrue at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate (as such term in defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) beginning on the date such Case Exchange Payment would have
been made had such Cash Exchange Payment not constituted a breach or default under a Specified Contract, (iii) neither the Company nor any Parent Party shall be obligated to effect any Exchange to the extent that such Exchange would constitute
a violation of applicable Law; provided that, in such event, the Company or Gazelle Holdco, as applicable, shall be deemed to have provided an Election Notice with respect to (and shall make a Cash Exchange Payment for) the Common Units


  
 9 







 
to the extent doing so would not constitute a violation of applicable Law, and (iv) neither the Company nor any Parent Party shall be obligated to effect any Exchange during any period of
time during which Parent is permitted not to facilitate the registration and resale of Deliverable Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1.6 of the Registration Rights Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any decision to seek the Stockholder
Approval shall be in all respects at Parent’s sole discretion. 
 Section 2.02 Exchange Procedures; Notices and
Revocations. 
 (a) An Exchanging Holder may exercise the right to effect an Exchange as set forth in
Section 2.01 by delivering a written notice of exchange in respect of the Common Units to be Exchanged substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Notice of Exchange”), duly executed by such
Exchanging Holder, to Parent, Gazelle Holdco and the Company at the address set forth in Section 4.03 during normal business hours on any Business Day, or if any agent for the Exchange is duly appointed and acting (an
“Exchange Agent”), to the office of the Exchange Agent during normal business hours on any Business Day. If Common Units are then represented by certificates, certificates representing at least the number of Common Units being
exchanged, with instruments of transfer reasonably acceptable to the Company and executed in blank, shall be delivered by the Exchanging Holder to the Company with the Notice of Exchange. If such certificates have been lost, the Exchanging Holder
may deliver, in lieu of such certificates, an affidavit of lost certificates. 
 (b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Exchange, the Company or
Gazelle Holdco (if Gazelle Holdco has delivered a Call Election Notice pursuant to paragraph (c)), as applicable, may deliver to the Exchanging Holder a notice (an “Election Notice”) within three (3) Business Days after receipt
by Parent and the Company of such Notice of Exchange (the “Election Period”), in which the Company (or Gazelle Holdco) may elect in whole or in part for a Cash Exchange Payment to be provided in an Exchange pursuant to
Section 2.01, except to the extent that a Cash Exchange Payment would be prohibited by Section 2.01(b). If no Election Notice is given before the end of the Election Period, the Company or
Gazelle Holdco, as applicable, shall be deemed not to have elected for a Cash Exchange Payment to be provided in the applicable Exchange and shall be required to deliver Common Stock as provided herein, provided that to the extent that
Section 2.01(b)(i) would prohibit the delivery of Common Stock for all Common Units being Exchanged, the Company or Gazelle Holdco, as applicable, shall be deemed as of the end of the Election Period to have given a timely
Election Notice with respect to any Common Units that otherwise would be Exchanged for a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Cap. 

(c) If a Holder has delivered a Notice of Exchange, Gazelle Holdco may, in its sole discretion, by means of delivery of a written notice (a
“Call Election Notice”) to the Company and the Exchanging Holder prior to the end of the Election Period and subject to the terms of this Section 2.02(c), elect to purchase directly and acquire such Common
Units as to which the Holder’s Notice of Exchange remains in effect on the Exchange Date by paying to the Exchanging Holder at the election of Gazelle Holdco as specified in the Call Election Notice either (i) a number of shares of Common
Stock that is equal to the product of the number of Common Units to be Exchanged multiplied by the Exchange Rate, (ii) a Cash Exchange Payment or (iii) a combination 

  
 10 







 
of shares of Common Stock and a Cash Exchange Payment (the “Call Right”), whereupon Gazelle Holdco shall acquire the Common Units offered for exchange by the Exchanging Holder.
For the avoidance of doubt, any Call Election Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 2.02(c) shall supersede any Election Notice. Except as otherwise provided by this Section 2.02(c), an
exercise of the Call Right shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in the same manner as the relevant Exchange would have been consummated if Gazelle Holdco had not delivered a Call Election Notice. 

(d) Contingent Notice of Exchange and Revocation by Holder. 

(i) Except to the extent that the Company (or Gazelle Holdco) elects to complete an Exchange by delivery of a Cash Exchange Payment, Holder
shall timely consummate within ten (10) Business Days after the completion of an Exchange, and such Exchange shall be conditioned on, the purchase of all of the shares of any Deliverable Common Stock delivered in such Exchange (whether in a
tender or exchange offer, an underwritten offering or otherwise) by another Person or Persons whom, except in the case of a sale by the Exchanging Holder in an underwritten offering or bona fide block trade, such Exchanging Holder reasonably does
not believe to be a Disqualified Purchaser (the “Resale Condition”). In addition, an Exchanging Holder may provide in a Notice of Exchange that such Exchange is contingent (including as to the timing) upon the occurrence of one or
more events and/or effective upon a specified future date, subject to the waiver of such contingencies by the Exchanging Holder. To the extent that the Exchanging Holder fails to timely satisfy the Resale Condition with respect to an Exchange, such
Exchange shall be automatically rescinded and void ab initio with respect to any shares of Deliverable Common Stock as to which the Resale Condition is not timely satisfied, provided that (x) if the managing
underwriter for an offering of the Deliverable Common Stock that was to be delivered in such Exchange advises the Company and the Holder in writing that 50% or more of the shares of Deliverable Common Stock could have been sold without an Adverse
Effect (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) the Holder shall be deemed to have effected an Exchange for purposes of Section 2.01(a)(x) and (y) if the managing underwriter for an offering of the Deliverable
Common Stock that was to be delivered in such Exchange advises the Company and the Holder in writing that less than 50% or more of the shares of Deliverable Common Stock could not have been sold without an Adverse Effect the Holder shall be deemed
not to have effected an Exchange for purposes of Section 2.01(a)(x). In no event shall an Exchange be rescinded with respect to any shares of Deliverable Common Stock as to which the Resale Condition has been satisfied,
regardless of whether the Minimum Amount would remain satisfied with respect to such Exchange. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Holder shall be permitted to effect an Exchange if any Holder continues to hold
Common Stock with respect to any previously consummated Exchange. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to
Section 2.02(d)(i), an Exchanging Holder may withdraw or amend a Notice of Exchange, in whole or in part, by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to Parent and the Company or the Exchange Agent, specifying
(1) the number of withdrawn Common Units, (2) if any, the number of Common Units as to which the Notice of Exchange remains in effect and confirmation that such 

  
 11 







 
number of Common Units as to which the Notice of Exchange remains in effect would not be less than the Minimum Amount and (3) if the Exchanging Holder so specifies, a new Exchange Date or
any other new or revised information permitted in the Notice of Exchange (which new Exchange Date shall not be earlier than the date that is three (3) Business Days after the date such notice of withdrawal or amendment is received by Parent and
the Company). To be effective, such notice of withdrawal or amendment must be delivered prior to the effectiveness of the Exchange and if an Election Notice has been delivered (or deemed delivered) with respect to a Cash Exchange Payment, within two
(2) Business Days of the delivery (or deemed delivery) of such Election Notice. 
 (e) Each Exchange shall be deemed to be effective
immediately prior to the close of business on the Exchange Date, and the Exchanging Holder (or other Persons whose names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued) shall be deemed to be a holder of any Deliverable Common Stock from and
after the effectiveness of the Exchange. On or prior to the Exchange Date (unless the Call Right has been exercised), (i) when a Common Unit is to be Exchanged for shares of Deliverable Common Stock, Parent shall take all such action as may be
required in order to issue such shares of Deliverable Common Stock and to sell, transfer, contribute or otherwise transfer to the Company such shares of Deliverable Common Stock for subsequent delivery to the Exchanging Holder in Exchange for such
Common Unit, and (ii) when a Common Unit is to be Exchanged for a Cash Exchange Payment, Gazelle Holdco shall contribute or otherwise transfer to the Company the cash required to effect such Cash Exchange Payment, provided that Gazelle
Holdco shall not be required to make any such contribution or transfer with respect to an Exchange that results in no Holder continuing to own any Common Units. 

(f) On the Exchange Date, the Company (or Gazelle Holdco if the Call Right is exercised) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Exchanging Holder (or other Persons whose names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued) any Cash Exchange Payment payable in such Exchange or, if applicable, the number of shares of any Deliverable Common Stock deliverable in such
Exchange, registered in the name of the Exchanging Holder (or other Persons whose names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued), and such Exchanging Holder shall deliver to the Company (or Gazelle Holdco) the Common Units to be
Exchanged together with such instruments of transfer reasonably acceptable to Parent; provided that any delivery of Deliverable Common Stock pursuant to this sentence shall occur prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Exchange Date. 

(g) The shares of any Deliverable Common Stock, other than any such shares issued in an Exchange that has been registered under the Securities
Act, shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR
UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW), OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. 

  
 12 







 (h) If (i) any shares of Deliverable Common Stock may be sold pursuant to a registration
statement that has been declared effective by the SEC or (ii) all of the applicable conditions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act are met, Parent, upon the written request of the Holder, shall promptly, and in any event within two
(2) Business Days, provide Holder or its respective transferees, without any expense to such Persons (other than applicable transfer taxes and similar governmental charges, if any), with new certificates (or evidence of book-entry shares) for
securities of like tenor not bearing the provisions of the legend with respect to which the restriction has terminated. In connection therewith, Holder shall provide Parent with such information in its possession as Parent may reasonably request in
connection with the removal of any such legend. 
 (i) Subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, Parent, the Company and Holder shall
bear their own respective expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange by Holder, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated; provided, however, that Company will pay any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or
duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; provided, further, that if any shares of Deliverable Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of Holder (or the Depository
Trust Company or its nominee for the account of a participant of the Depository Trust Company that will hold the shares for the account of such Holder or its Permitted Transferee), then Holder and/or the Person in whose name such shares are to be
delivered shall pay to Parent or the Company, as applicable the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction
of Parent and the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable. 
 Section 2.03 Adjustment. 

(a) The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted proportionately if there is any subdivision (by any stock or unit split, stock or unit dividend or
distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock or unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Units that is not accompanied by a
substantively identical subdivision or combination of the Common Stock. Unless a corresponding dividend or distribution has been paid with respect to the Common Units not owned by Gazelle Holdco, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted equitably if
there is a dividend or distribution paid with respect to the Common Stock other than with proceeds paid from a dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Units. The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted proportionately to reflect the increased
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding following any issuance of Common Stock in order to fund payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in accordance with section 3.04 of the LLC Agreement, provided that such an adjustment shall not result
in any adjustment to the Cap. 

  
 13 







 (b) The Cap, the Minimum Amount and the Maximum Amount (in each case to the extent set forth in
the definition thereof) shall be adjusted proportionately if there is any subdivision (by any stock or unit split, stock or unit dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse
stock or unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Stock regardless of whether such subdivision or combination is accompanied by a substantively identical subdivision or combination of the Common
Units. In the event that additional Common Units are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Holder’s rights pursuant to Section 3.05 of the LLC Agreement, the Cap shall be increased by one share of Common Stock
multiplied by the Exchange Rate for each such additional Common Unit, to the fullest extent permitted by NYSE rules. 
 (c) If there is any
reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, Holder shall be entitled to
receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Exchanging Holder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or
other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split,
reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction and prior to
the effectiveness of the Exchange. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or
other property, this Section 2.03(c) shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property. This Agreement shall apply to, mutatis mutandis, and all references to “Common
Units” shall be deemed to include, any security, securities or other property which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for or in substitution of Common Units, as applicable, by reason of stock or unit split, reverse stock or unit split,
stock or unit dividend or distribution, combination, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, exchange (other than an Exchange) or other transaction. 

(d) This Agreement shall apply to the Common Units held by Impala and its Permitted Transferees as of the date hereof, as well as any Common
Units hereafter acquired by Impala and its Permitted Transferees. 
 Section 2.04 Tender Offers and Other Events with Respect to
Parent. 
 (a) Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in the Governance Agreement, which shall not apply to any matter described in
this Section 2.04, in the event that a tender offer, share exchange offer, issuer bid, merger, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to Common Stock (a “Parent Offer”) is proposed by Parent
or is proposed to Parent or its stockholders and approved by the Board or is otherwise effected or to be effected with the consent or approval of the Board, each Holder of Common Units shall be permitted (and, in the case of a Parent Change of
Control Transaction required, subject to Section 2.04(d)) to participate in such Parent Offer by delivery of a Notice of Exchange (which Notice of Exchange shall, in the case of a Parent Change of Control Transaction be
deemed delivered to the Company and Parent without any action by Holder, and an Election Notice shall be deemed to be delivered by the Company 

  
 14 







 
without any action by the Company immediately following such Notice of Exchange, in each case with respect to all Common Units held by any Holder, and in any case shall be effective immediately
prior to the consummation of such Parent Offer (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be contingent upon such Parent Offer and not be effective if such Parent Offer is not consummated)). 

(b) In the case of a Parent Offer proposed by Parent, Parent and each Holder will use their respective reasonable best efforts to take all such
actions and do all such things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit Holder to participate in such Parent Offer to the same extent or on an economically equivalent basis (taking into account the then-current Exchange Rate) as the
holders of shares of Common Stock without discrimination; provided, however, that (x) without limiting the generality of this sentence (and without limiting the ability of each Holder to Exchange Common Units pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement), Parent will, other than in the case of a Parent Change of Control Transaction, use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that Holder may participate in each such Parent Offer without first being required to Exchange Common Units and
(y) the Company (or Gazelle Holdco), may deliver (or may be deemed to have delivered) an Election Notice to the extent necessary to comply with the Cap, in which case such Cash Exchange Payment shall equal the Fair Market Value of the
consideration payable in the Parent Offer for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Common Units are exchangeable for such Cash Exchange Payment. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Parent, or the Company on behalf of Parent, delivers (or is deemed to
deliver) an Election Notice in connection with any Exchange made to participate in a Parent Offer, the Cash Exchange Payment shall equal the Fair Market Value of the consideration payable in the Parent Offer for the number of shares of Common Stock
into which the Common Units are exchangeable for such Cash Exchange Payment. 
 (d) In the event a Parent Change of Control Transaction is
approved by the Board and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the certificate of incorporation of Parent, the holders of Parent’s common stock, each Holder shall take all action reasonably necessary or appropriate to cause all Common
Units to be Exchanged prior to (but which Exchange may be contingent on) the consummation of such Parent Change of Control Transaction, and Parent, or the Company on behalf of Parent, shall deliver (or be deemed to have delivered) an Election Notice
to make a Cash Exchange Payment with respect to all Common Units held by any Holder, which Cash Exchange Payment shall equal the Fair Market Value of the consideration payable in the Parent Offer for the number of shares of Common Stock into which
the Common Units are exchangeable for such Cash Exchange Payment. 
 Section 2.05 Listing of Deliverable Common Stock. Parent
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Deliverable Common Stock to be listed on the same national securities exchange upon which the outstanding Common Stock may be listed or admitted to trading at the time of such issuance. 

  
 15 







 Section 2.06 Deliverable Common Stock to be Issued; Capital Structure. 

(a) Parent shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance
upon an Exchange, the maximum number of shares of Deliverable Common Stock as shall be deliverable upon Exchange of all then-outstanding Common Units and shall take such other actions as are necessary to preserve the
one-to-one ratio between the number of Common Units owned by Parent and its Subsidiaries in the aggregate and the number of shares of Common Stock then-outstanding;
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude Parent, Gazelle Holdco or the Company from satisfying their respective obligations in respect of an Exchange by delivery of shares of Deliverable Common
Stock that are held in the treasury of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or by delivery of purchased shares of Deliverable Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of Parent or any Subsidiary thereof). Parent, Gazelle Holdco and
the Company represent, warrant and covenant that all shares of Deliverable Common Stock issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance thereof, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. 

(b) Parent, Gazelle Holdco and the Company shall take all actions necessary so that, for so long as this Agreement is in effect, subject to
Section 2.03, the number of Common Units owned by Parent and its Subsidiaries in the aggregate equals the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Parent shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any
stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the shares of Common Stock,
unless the Company simultaneously effects a subdivision or combination of the Common Units with an identical ratio. The Company shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any unit split, unit dividend or distribution, reclassification,
reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Units, unless Parent simultaneously effects a subdivision or combination of the
shares of Common Stock with an identical ratio. 
 Section 2.07 Distributions. No Exchange shall impair the right of an
Exchanging Holder to receive any distributions payable on the Common Units so exchanged in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Exchange Date for such Exchange. No adjustments in respect of distributions on any Common Unit will be made
on the Exchange of any Common Unit, and if the Exchange Date with respect to a Common Unit occurs after the record date for the payment of a distribution on Common Units but before the date of the payment, then the registered Holder of the Common
Unit at the close of business on the record date will be entitled to receive the distribution payable on the Common Unit on the payment date notwithstanding the Exchange of the Common Units or a default in payment of the distribution due on the
Exchange Date, and, for the avoidance of doubt, no Exchanging Holder shall have the right to receive any distributions (including tax distributions) on any exchanged Common Unit with a record date that occurs from and after any Exchange Date. For
the avoidance of doubt, an Exchanging Holder shall not be entitled to receive, in respect of a single record date, distributions or dividends both on Common Units exchanged by such Exchanging Holder and on shares of Deliverable Common Stock received
by such Exchanging Holder in such Exchange.

this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction)
that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal Laws of the State of Delaware shall control the interpretation and construction of this Agreement, even
though under that jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive Law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.

CONSULT COUNSEL), EACH OF THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES OR THEIR SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING

be executed in one or more counterparts each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this

hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations set forth herein shall be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties

accordance with the LLC Agreement and the Governance Agreement in compliance with Section 4.01. 
 (b) Nothing in
this Agreement shall be construed as giving any Person, other than the parties hereto and their heirs, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

 Section 4.08 Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each party hereto shall bear its own expenses in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 Section 4.09 Severability. If any provision of this
Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any applicable Law, then such contravention or invalidity shall not invalidate the entire Agreement. Such provision shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to
render it legal, valid and enforceable, and if no such modification shall render it legal, valid and enforceable, then this Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the provision held to be invalid, and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereto shall be construed and enforced accordingly. 
 Section 4.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and, as applicable,
the other Transaction Agreements (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and
written, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

only be amended or modified, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time by a written instrument signed by (i) each of the Parent Parties and (ii) the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Units entitled to be

 21 







 Section 4.12 Waiver. Any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation,
representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived at any time by any of the parties entitled to the benefit thereof only by a written instrument signed by each such party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure
to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. 

Section 4.13 Tax Treatment. This Agreement shall be treated as part of the LLC Agreement as described in Section 761(c) of
the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the parties
shall report an Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable sale of the Common Units by Holder to Gazelle Holdco, and no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return or amendment thereof.

 To: Graphic
Packaging International Partners, LLC 
 1500 Riveredge Parkway NW 

Suite 100, 9th Floor 
 Atlanta, GA. 30328 

The undersigned Holder hereby elects to Exchange
                 Common Units in Graphic Packaging International Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), in accordance with
the terms of the Exchange Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2018, by and among the Company, Graphic Packaging Holding Company, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), GPI Holding III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“Gazelle Holdco”), and International Paper Company, a New York corporation (the “Exchange Agreement”) and the Exchange rights referred to therein. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the
meanings ascribed to them by the Exchange Agreement. 
 The undersigned Holder undertakes (i) to surrender such Common Units and any
certificate therefor at the closing of the Exchange and (ii) to furnish to the Company, prior to the Exchange Date, the documentation, instruments and information required pursuant to the Exchange Agreement.
