pursuant to, and subject to the provisions of, the LLC Agreement and any other applicable documentation, each TRA Party has the right
from time to time to require the LLC to redeem (a “Redemption”) all or a portion of such TRA Party’s Units, which
Redemption may be effected, at the Corporation’s election, for cash or Class A Common Stock (to be paid by the LLC), or by
the Corporation effecting a direct exchange (a “Direct Exchange”) for such Units, and as a result of such sales, Redemptions
or Direct Exchanges the Corporation or the Corporate Group may be entitled to utilize (or otherwise be entitled to the benefits arising
out of) the Covered Tax Assets;


 


WHEREAS, the income, gain,
loss, expense, deduction and other Tax items of the Corporation or the Corporate Group may be affected by the Covered Tax Assets;


 


WHEREAS, the parties to this
Agreement desire to make certain arrangements with respect to the effects of the Covered Tax Assets;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in connection
with the foregoing and the respective covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties
hereto agree as follows:


 


ARTICLE I.

DEFINITIONS


 


Section 1.1         Definitions.
As used in this Agreement, the terms set forth in this Article I shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally
applicable to both (i) the singular and plural and (ii) the active and passive forms of the terms defined).


 


“Actual Tax Liability”
means, with respect to any Taxable Year, the actual liability for U.S. federal, state and local income Taxes of (i) the Corporation
or the Corporate Group, as applicable, and (ii) without duplication, the LLC, but in the case of this clause (ii) only with
respect to U.S. federal, state and local income Taxes imposed on the LLC and allocable to the Corporation or the Corporate Group, in each
case using the same methods, elections, conventions, and practices used on the relevant Tax Return; provided, that the actual liability
for Taxes described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be calculated (a) using the Assumed State and Local Tax Rate, solely
for purposes of calculating the state and local Actual Tax Liability and (b) assuming, solely for purposes of calculating the liability
for U.S. federal income Taxes, that state and local income and franchise Taxes are not deductible by the Corporation or the Corporate
Group for U.S. federal income Tax purposes.

is defined in the preamble.


 


“Amended Schedule”
is defined in Section 2.3(b) of this Agreement.


 


“Assumed State and
Local Tax Rate” means six percent (6%) (which amount, for the avoidance of doubt, was selected by taking into account and is
intended to reflect the deductibility by the Corporation for federal income tax purposes of state and local income taxes under current
law), provided that the Corporation may adjust the Assumed State and Local Tax Rate from time to time (a) in the event of
a change in Law, (b) in the event of a change in material fact or (c) if the Corporation otherwise determines in good faith
from time to time that such adjustment is necessary or advisable.

“Attribute Schedule”

“Basis Adjustment”
means the increase or decrease to the tax basis of, or the Corporation’s share of, the tax basis of the Reference Assets (i) under
Section 734(b), 743(b) and 754 of the Code and, in each case, the comparable sections of U.S. state and local tax law (in situations
where, following an Exchange, the LLC remains in existence as an entity for tax purposes) and (ii) under Sections 732 and 1012 of
the Code and, in each case, the comparable sections of U.S. state and local tax law (in situations where, as a result of one or more Exchanges,
the LLC becomes an entity that is disregarded as separate from its owner for tax purposes), in each case, as a result of any Exchange
and any payments made under this Agreement. For purposes of determining the Basis Adjustments (and any payments made hereunder with respect
to such Basis Adjustments) that are attributable to Reference Assets held by an entity in which the LLC owns a direct or indirect interest
and where obtaining information necessary to determine the allocation of the Basis Adjustments is not practicable (as reasonably determined
by the Corporation), the Corporation may make reasonable estimates and assumptions, including if determined by the Corporation assuming
that such Basis Adjustments will be allocable to property that is depreciable or amortizable over a 15-year period. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, the amount of any Basis Adjustment resulting from an Exchange of one or more Units shall be determined
without regard to any Pre-Exchange Transfer of such Units and as if any such Pre-Exchange Transfer had not occurred.

Benefit Schedule.


 


(a)            Tax
Benefit Schedule. Within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the filing of the Form 1120 (or any successor form) of
the Corporation or the Corporate Group for any Taxable Year, the Corporation shall provide to the TRA Parties a schedule showing, in reasonable
detail, the calculation of the Tax Benefit Payment in respect of each TRA Party for such Taxable Year and the calculation of the Realized
Tax Benefit and Realized Tax Detriment and the components thereof for such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”). Each Tax
Benefit Schedule will become final as provided in Section 2.3(a) and may be amended as provided in Section 2.3(b) (subject
to the procedures set forth in Section 2.3(b)).


 


(b)            Applicable
Principles. For purposes of calculating the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for any period, carryovers or carrybacks
of any Tax item attributable to the Covered Tax Assets shall be considered to be subject to the rules of the Code and the Treasury
Regulations, as applicable, governing the use, limitation and expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. If a carryover
or carryback of any Tax item includes a portion that is attributable to a Covered Tax Asset and another portion that is not, such respective
portions shall be considered to be used in accordance with the “with and without” methodology. For the avoidance of doubt,
the Corporation shall be entitled to make reasonable simplifying assumptions in making determinations contemplated by this Agreement,
including reasonable assumptions regarding basis recovery periods (and the parties hereby agree that, among other things, the Corporation’s
determination of the Realized Tax Benefit and Realized Tax Detriment with respect to U.S. state and local taxes might not take into account
jurisdiction-specific U.S. state and local adjustments to the U.S. federal taxable income base or to the U.S. federal rules regarding
the utilization of tax attribute carryovers).

Section 2.3         Procedures,
Amendments.


 


(a)            Procedure.
Every time the Corporation delivers to the TRA Parties a Schedule under this Agreement, including any Amended Schedule delivered pursuant
to Section 2.3(b), and any Early Termination Schedule or amended Early Termination Schedule, the Corporation shall also (x) deliver
to the TRA Parties schedules, valuation reports, if any, and work papers, as determined by the Corporation or reasonably requested by
the TRA Parties, providing reasonable detail regarding the preparation of the Schedule, and (y) allow the TRA Parties reasonable
access at no cost to the appropriate representatives of the Corporation, as determined by the Corporation or requested by the TRA Parties
in connection with the review of such Schedule. Without limiting the application of the preceding sentence, each time the Corporation
delivers to the TRA Parties a Tax Benefit Schedule, in addition to the Tax Benefit Schedule duly completed, the Corporation shall deliver
to the TRA Parties a reasonably detailed calculation of the applicable Hypothetical Tax Liability and a reasonably detailed calculation
of the applicable Actual Tax Liability, as well as any other work papers as determined by the Corporation or reasonably requested by the
TRA Parties, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to provide any information that it reasonably believes is unnecessary
for purposes of determining the items in the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto. An applicable Schedule or amendment thereto shall
become final and binding on all parties sixty (60) calendar days after the first date on which the TRA Parties have received the applicable
Schedule or amendment thereto unless (i) a TRA Party provides the Corporation with notice of a material objection to such Schedule
(“Objection Notice”) made in good faith or (ii) each TRA Party provides a written waiver of such right of any
Objection Notice within the period described in clause (i) above, in which case such Schedule or amendment thereto becomes binding
on the date the last such waiver is received by the Corporation. If the Corporation and the TRA Parties, for any reason, are unable to
successfully resolve the issues raised in an Objection Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Corporation of an
Objection Notice, then the Corporation and the TRA Parties shall employ the reconciliation procedures described in Section 7.9 of
this Agreement (the “Reconciliation Procedures”).


 





(b)            Amended
Schedule. The applicable Attribute Schedule or Tax Benefit Schedule for any Taxable Year may be amended from time to time by the Corporation
(i) in connection with a Determination affecting such Schedule, (ii) to correct inaccuracies in the Schedule identified after
the date the Schedule was provided to the TRA Parties, (iii) to comply with the Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation
Procedures, (iv) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to
a carryback or carryforward of a loss or other tax item to such Taxable Year, (v) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit
or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable Year or (vi) as otherwise
determined in good faith by the Corporation to be reasonably necessary or appropriate (any such Schedule, an “Amended Schedule”).
The Attribute Schedule shall be appropriately amended by the Corporation and the TRA Parties to the extent that, as a result of a Determination,
the Corporation is required to calculate its Tax liability in a manner inconsistent with the Attribute Schedule. The Corporation shall
provide an Amended Schedule to the TRA Parties within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referenced
in clauses (i) through (vi) of the first sentence of this Section 2.3(b).

ARTICLE III.

TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS


 


Section 3.1         Timing
and Amount of Tax Benefit Payments.


 


(a)            Within
five (5) Business Days after a Tax Benefit Schedule delivered to the TRA Parties becomes final in accordance with Section 2.3(a),
the Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid to each TRA Party for such Taxable Year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the
Tax Benefit Payment in respect of such TRA Party for such Taxable Year determined pursuant to Section 3.1(b) over (ii) the
aggregate amount of Advance Payments previously made to such TRA Party in respect of such Taxable Year; provided that, if the Corporation
makes Advance Payments, it shall make Advance Payments to all parties eligible to receive payments under this Tax Receivable Agreement
with respect to a particular Taxable Year in proportion to their respective amount of anticipated payments under this Tax Receivable Agreement
in respect of such Taxable Year, as determined by the Corporation. Each such Tax Benefit Payment or such Advance Payment shall be made
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account previously designated by such TRA Party to the Corporation or as otherwise
agreed by the Corporation and such TRA Party.


 





(b)            A
 “Tax Benefit Payment” in respect of a TRA Party means an amount, not less than zero, equal to the sum of the portion of the
Net Tax Benefit that is Attributable to such TRA Party and the Interest Amount with respect thereto. A Net Tax Benefit is “Attributable”
to a TRA Party to the extent that is derived from a Covered Tax Asset this is allocable to Units that were Exchanged by such TRA Party,
as determined by the Corporation in accordance with the definition of “Covered Tax Assets.” The “Net Tax Benefit”
for a Taxable Year shall be an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit as of the
end of such Taxable Year over (ii) the sum of the total amount of payments previously made under Section 3.1(a) (excluding
payments attributable to Interest Amounts) and the Advance Payments previously made under Section 3.1(b) of this Agreement;
provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that (1) a TRA Party shall not be required to return any portion of any previously made Tax
Benefit Payment or Advance Payment it receives under this Agreement; (2) no amounts due to a TRA Party under this Agreement shall
be escrowed and (3) no TRA Party shall be required to make a payment to the Corporation on account of a Realized Tax Detriment. The
 “Interest Amount” in respect of the TRA Party shall equal the interest on the amount of the unpaid Net Tax Benefit
Attributable to such TRA Party for a Taxable Year, which interest shall accrue on any unpaid Net Tax Benefit from and after the date on
which the calculation of such Tax Benefit Payment for such Taxable Year becomes final pursuant to Section 2.3(a), calculated at the
Agreed Rate, until the date such unpaid amounts are paid. For the avoidance of doubt, for Tax purposes, the Interest Amount shall not
be treated as interest but instead shall be treated as additional consideration in the Exchange unless otherwise required by law. “Advance
Payments” in respect of a TRA Party for a Taxable Year means the payments, if any, made by the Corporation to such TRA Party
as an advance of such TRA Party’s anticipated Tax Benefit Payment for such Taxable Year. The Corporation shall be entitled at its
option to make Advance Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each Taxable Year ending on or after the date of a Change of Control,
all Tax Benefit Payments shall be calculated by utilizing Valuation Assumptions (1) and (5), substituting in (1) “the
date of a Change of Control” for the term “Early Termination Date.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, after any lump-sum payment under Article IV of this Agreement in respect of present or future Covered Tax Assets, such
Covered Tax Assets shall no longer be considered Covered Tax Assets for purposes of determining Tax Benefit Payments or the Net Tax Benefit.


 






    	 	12	 



     


    

 


Section 3.2         No
Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in duplicative payment of any amount (including
interest) required under this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed consistent with such intent.


 





Section 3.3         Pro
Rata Payments.


 


(a)            Notwithstanding
anything in Section 3.1 to the contrary, to the extent that the aggregate amount of the tax benefit to the Corporation or the Corporate
Group from the reduction in Tax Liability as a result of the Covered Tax Assets is limited in a particular Taxable Year because the Corporation
or the Corporate Group does not have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize available deductions and other attributes, the Net Tax
Benefit giving rise to Tax Benefit Payments shall be allocated among the TRA Parties in proportion to the respective amounts of Tax Benefit
Payments that would have been paid under this Agreement if the Corporation or the Corporate Group, as applicable, had sufficient taxable
income so that there were no such limitation; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of allocating among the TRA Parties
the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments payable under this Agreement with respect to any Taxable Year, the operation of this Section 3.3(a) with
respect to any prior Taxable Years shall be taken into account. Consistent with the foregoing, the Attribute Schedule for a given Taxable
Year shall reflect the operation of this Section 3.3(a) in respect of previous Taxable Years, with the Covered Tax Assets described
in such Attribute Schedule that are attributable to a TRA Party being adjusted to reflect payments received in respect of such Covered
Tax Assets (the intention of the parties being to avoid duplicative payments and maintain records sufficient to allow the Corporation
to allocate Tax Benefit Payments consistent with the terms of this Section 3.3(a)).


 


(b)            After
taking into account Section 3.3(a), if for any reason the Corporation does not fully satisfy its payment obligations to make Tax
Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year (for example, as a result of having insufficient cash
to make the Tax Benefit Payments due hereunder), then the Corporation and the TRA Parties agree that (i) the Corporation shall make
payments due hereunder to the TRA Parties in respect of a Taxable Year in the same proportion as such payments would have been made if
the relevant payment had been made in full by the Corporation, and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable
Year until all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of prior Taxable Years have been paid.


 


(c)            To
the extent the Corporation makes a payment to a TRA Party in respect of a particular Taxable Year under Section 3.1(a) of this
Agreement (taking into account Section 3.3(a) and (b)) in an amount in excess of the amount of such payment that should have
been made to the TRA Party in respect of such Taxable Year, then (i) the TRA Party shall not receive further payments under Section 3.1(a) until
the TRA Party has foregone an amount of payments equal to such excess and (ii) the Corporation shall pay the amount of the TRA Party’s
foregone payments to other TRA Parties (to the extent applicable) in a manner such that each of the other TRA Parties, to the extent possible,
shall have received aggregate payments under Section 3.1(a) and (b) in the amount it would have received if there had been
no excess payment to the TRA Party.

ARTICLE IV.

TERMINATION


 


Section 4.1         Early
Termination of Agreement; Breach of Agreement.


 


(a)            With
the prior written approval of each of a majority of the “independent directors” (within the meaning of Rule 10A-3 promulgated
under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq rules) of the Governing Body, the Corporation may terminate this Agreement with respect to all amounts
payable to the TRA Parties at any time by paying to each TRA Party the Early Termination Payment in respect of the TRA Party; provided,
however, that (i) this Agreement shall only terminate pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) upon the receipt in full of the Early
Termination Payment by the TRA Parties; (ii) the Corporation shall deliver an Early Termination Notice only if it is able to make
all required Early Termination Payments under this Agreement and (iii) the Corporation may withdraw any notice to execute its termination
rights under this Section 4.1(a) prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment has been paid.


 





(b)            In
the event that the Corporation breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, whether as a result of a failure to make
any payment when due, a failure to honor any other material obligation required hereunder or by operation of law as a result of the rejection
of this Agreement in a case commenced under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and the Corporation fails to cure such breach within thirty
(30) Business Days of a TRA Party notifying the Corporation in writing of such breach, then, at the election of the TRA Parties, subject
to the following proviso, all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination
Notice had been delivered on the date of such breach; provided, that (i) each TRA Party’s election shall apply only in respect
of such TRA Party and (ii) at least five (5) Business Days prior to making any such election, the applicable TRA Party shall
provide written notice to the other TRA Parties in order to permit each other TRA Party, if it wishes, to make its election simultaneously.
Procedures similar to the procedures of Section 4.2 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, with respect to the determination of the
amounts payable by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 4.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation
breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, in lieu of electing to receive the amounts referred to in this Section 4.1(b) pursuant
to the provisions hereof, the TRA Parties may seek specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, it shall not be a breach of this Agreement if the Corporation fails to make any Tax Benefit Payment when due;
provided, that (x) the interest provisions of Section 5.2 shall apply to such late payment, and (y) solely with respect
to a Tax Benefit Payment, if the Corporation does not have sufficient cash to make such payment as a result of limitations imposed by
existing credit agreements or other indebtedness to which the LLC is a party, Section 5.2 shall apply, but the Default Rate shall
be replaced by the Agreed Rate; provided that it shall be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement if the Corporation
makes any distribution of cash or other property with respect to any equity interest in the Corporation while any Tax Benefit Payment
is due and payable under this Agreement but unpaid (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) issuances of Class A Common Stock
or Class B Common Stock, (ii) issuances of rights to purchase Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock pursuant
to a shareholders’ rights or similar plan and (iii) any compensation, withholdings or other payments under the Corporation’s
or its subsidiaries’ equity incentive plans and awards thereunder as in effect from time to time).


 


(c)            In
connection with a Change of Control, at the election of the TRA Parties, all obligations hereunder with respect to the TRA Parties shall
be terminated. The Corporation hereby agrees to provide twenty (20) calendar days prior written notice to each TRA Party of a Change of
Control. Within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such notice, each TRA Party shall provide written notice as to whether it will
terminate this Agreement. If a TRA Party elects to terminate the Agreement, then all obligations under this Agreement with respect to
the applicable TRA Party shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered
on the date of the Change of Control. Procedures similar to the procedures of Section 4.2 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, with
respect to the determination of the amounts payable by the Corporation.


 






    	 	14	 



     


    

 


Section 4.2         Early
Termination Notice. If the Corporation chooses to exercise its right of early termination under Section 4.1(a) above, the
Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Parties notice of such intention to exercise such right (“Early Termination Notice”).
In addition, if the Corporation chooses to exercise its right of early termination under Section 4.1(a) above, the obligations
under this Agreement are accelerated under Section 4.1(b) above or a TRA Party exercises their right to terminate this Agreement
under Section 4.1(c) above, the Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Parties a schedule (the “Early Termination Schedule”)
showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment due to each TRA Party. Such Early Termination Schedule shall
become final and binding on all parties consistent with the procedures described in Section 2.3(a). The date on which the Early Termination
Schedule becomes final shall be the “Early Termination Effective Date.”


 


Section 4.3         Payment
upon Early Termination.


 


(a)            Within
three (3) calendar days after an Early Termination Effective Date, the Corporation shall pay to each of the TRA Parties an amount
equal to the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party. Such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to a bank account or accounts designated by the TRA Party or as otherwise agreed by the Corporation and such TRA Party.


 


(b)            “Early
Termination Payment” in respect of a TRA Party shall equal, without duplication, (i) the present value, discounted at the
Early Termination Rate, as of the date of the Early Termination Notice, of all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of such TRA Party that
would be required to be paid by the Corporation beginning from the date of the Early Termination Notice and applying the Valuation Assumptions,
plus (ii) any Tax Benefit Payment determined by the Corporation to be due and payable with respect to such TRA Party that is unpaid
as of the date of the Early Termination Notice, plus (iii) any other Tax Benefit Payment due and payable with respect to such TRA
Party for a Taxable Year ending prior to the date of the Early Termination Notice, plus (iv) interest accruing on the amounts described
in clauses (i) through (iii) (which shall include interest accruing on the amount described in clause (i) from the date
of the Early Termination Notice).


 


(c)            Upon
the payment of the Early Termination Payment by the Corporation to a TRA Party, the Corporation shall not have any further payment obligations
under this Agreement in respect of such TRA Party.


 






    	 	15	 



     


    

 


ARTICLE V.

SUBORDINATION AND LATE PAYMENTS


 


Section 5.1         Subordination.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment required
to be made by the Corporation under this Agreement shall rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to any principal, interest,
or other amounts due and payable in respect of any obligations owed in respect of secured or unsecured indebtedness for borrowed money
of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (“Senior Obligations”) and shall rank pari passu in right of payment
with all current or future unsecured obligations of the Corporation that are not Senior Obligations. To the extent that any payment under
this Agreement is not permitted to be made at the time payment is due as a result of this Section 5.1 and the terms of the agreements
governing Senior Obligations, such payment obligation nevertheless shall accrue for the benefit of the applicable TRA Parties and the
Corporation shall make such payments at the first opportunity that such payments are permitted to be made in accordance with the terms
of the Senior Obligations. Except as otherwise determined by the Governing Body with the approval of the TRA Parties, (i) payments
under any other tax receivable agreement (or similar agreement) entered into by the Corporation, the LLC or their Subsidiaries after
the date hereof shall be subordinate to all payments owed pursuant to this Agreement, and no such payments shall be made (x) for
so long as the Corporation has any unpaid obligation pursuant to this Agreement and (y) with respect to any particular taxable period
governed by such tax receivable agreement until payments with respect to such taxable period under this Agreement have been determined
and (if any) paid and (ii) the Actual Tax Liability and Hypothetical Tax Liability under this Agreement shall be calculated by assuming
that any tax attributes that are subject to a tax receivable agreement (or similar agreement) described in the preceding clause (i) (for
the avoidance of doubt, other than this Agreement) did not exist.


 





Section 5.2         Late
Payments by the Corporation. The amount of all or any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other payment
under this Agreement not made to the TRA Parties when due under the terms of this Agreement shall be payable together with any interest
thereon, computed at the Default Rate and commencing from the date on which such Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other
payment was due and payable.


 


ARTICLE VI.

TAX MATTERS; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION


 


Section 6.1         Participation
in the Corporation’s and the LLC’s Tax Matters. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Corporation shall have full responsibility
for, and sole discretion over, all tax matters concerning the Corporation and the LLC and its Subsidiaries, including without limitation
the preparation, filing or amending of any Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling any issue pertaining to taxes; provided, however,
that the Corporation shall notify the TRA Parties of, and keep them reasonably informed with respect to, the portion of any audit of the
Corporation, the LLC or any of their Subsidiaries the outcome of which is reasonably expected to adversely affect the rights and obligations
of the TRA Parties under this Agreement in a material respect, and shall provide to the TRA Parties reasonable opportunity to provide
information and other input to the Corporation, the LLC and their Subsidiaries concerning the conduct of any such portion of such audit,
which information and other input the Corporation, the LLC and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall consider in good faith.


 


Section 6.2     Consistency.
The Corporation, the LLC and the TRA Parties agree to report and cause to be reported for all purposes, including federal, state and local
Tax purposes, all Tax-related items (including, without limitation, the Basis Adjustments and each Tax Benefit Payment) in a manner consistent
with that specified in any Schedule finalized consistent with the terms of this Agreement, unless otherwise required by Law.


 






    	 	16	 



     


    

 


Section 6.3         Cooperation.
Each of the Corporation, the LLC and the TRA Parties shall (a) furnish to the other parties in a timely manner such information,
documents and other materials as the other party may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary
or appropriate under this Agreement, completing any financial statement audit, preparing any Tax Return or defending any audit, examination
or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (b) make itself available to the other party and its representatives to provide explanations
of documents and material and such other information as the other party or its representatives may reasonably request in connection with
any of the matters described in clause (a) above, and (c) reasonably cooperate in connection with any such matter, and the Corporation
shall reimburse each TRA Party for any reasonable third-party costs and expenses incurred pursuant to this Section at the request
of the Corporation or the LLC.

Section 7.2         Counterparts;
Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other
Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page to this
Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic delivery (i.e. by email of a PDF signature page) shall be as effective as delivery of

Section 7.4         Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to the
conflicts of laws principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.


 


Section 7.5         Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other
terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of
the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term
or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall 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 hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.


 


Section 7.6         Assignments;
Amendments; Successors; No Waiver.


 


(a)            Assignment.
No TRA Party may assign, sell, pledge, or otherwise alienate or transfer any interest in this Agreement, including the right to receive
any Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement, to any Person without (i) the prior written consent of the Governing Body (or any
Person(s) to whom the Governing Body has delegated such authority) (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) such
Person executing and delivering a Joinder agreeing to succeed to all or the applicable portion of such TRA Party’s interest in this
Agreement and to become a Party for all purposes of this Agreement (the “Joinder Requirement”). For the avoidance of
doubt, if a TRA Party transfers Units in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement but does not assign to the transferee of such
Units its rights under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Units, such TRA Party shall continue to be entitled to receive
the Tax Benefit Payments arising in respect of such Units (and any such transferred Units shall be separately identified, so as to facilitate
the determination of Tax Benefit Payments hereunder). The Corporation may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
to any Person (other than any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially
all of the business or assets of the Corporation) without the prior written consent of each of TRA Parties (and any purported assignment
without such consent shall be null and void).


 


(b)            Amendments.
No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is approved in writing by each of (i) the Governing Body (or
any Person(s) to whom the Governing Body has delegated such authority); and (ii) the TRA Parties who collectively would be entitled
to receive at least a majority of any Early Termination Payments that would be hypothetically payable to all TRA Parties (assuming all
equity interests in the LLC that have redemption rights under the LLC Agreement are redeemed and exchanged for shares of Class A
Common Stock at such time and using the Valuation Assumptions).


 






    19 


     


    

 


(c)            Successors.
Except as provided in Section 7.6(a), all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by, the Parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and
legal representatives. The Corporation shall require and cause any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation
or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Corporation, by written agreement, expressly to assume and
agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such
succession had taken place.


 


(d)            Waiver.
No failure by any Party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement, or condition of this Agreement, or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty,
agreement, or condition.


 


Section 7.7         Titles
and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be
considered in construing this Agreement.


 


Section 7.8         Resolution
of Disputes.


 


(a)            Except
for Reconciliation Disputes subject to Section 7.9, any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary
claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement (each a “Dispute”) shall be finally
resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution Rules for Administered
Arbitration (the “Rules”) by three arbitrators, of which the Corporation shall appoint one arbitrator and the TRA Parties
shall jointly appoint two arbitrators in accordance with the “screened” appointment procedure provided in Rule 5.4. The
arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by
the arbitrators may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of the arbitration shall be New York, New York.


 


(b)            Notwithstanding
the provisions of paragraph (a), any party may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose
of compelling another party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing
an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each party (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph
(c) of this Section 7.8 to any such action or proceeding, and (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary
damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate. For
the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.8 shall not apply to Reconciliation Disputes to be settled in accordance with the procedures
set forth in Section 7.9.


 


(c)            Each
party irrevocably consents to service of process by means of notice in the manner provided for in Section 7.1. Nothing in this Agreement
shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.


 


(d)            WAIVER
OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).


 






    20 


     


    

 


(e)            In
the event the parties are unable to agree whether a dispute between them is a Reconciliation Dispute subject to the dispute resolution
procedure set forth in Section 7.9 or a Dispute subject to the dispute resolution procedure set forth in this Section 7.8, such
disagreement shall be decided and resolved in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 7.8.


 


Section 7.9         Reconciliation.
In the event that the Corporation and one or more TRA Parties are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to a Schedule (a “Reconciliation
Dispute”), the Reconciliation Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “Expert”)
in the particular area of disagreement mutually acceptable to such parties. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally
recognized accounting firm, and unless the Corporation and such TRA Parties agree otherwise, the Expert shall not, and the firm that employs
the Expert shall not, have any material relationship with the Corporation or such TRA Parties or other actual or potential conflict of
interest. If the Corporation and such TRA Parties are unable to agree on an Expert within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the
respondent(s) of written notice of a Reconciliation Dispute, the selection of an Expert shall be treated as a Dispute subject to
Section 7.8 and an arbitration panel shall pick an Expert from a nationally recognized accounting firm that does not have any material
relationship with the Corporation or such TRA Parties or other actual or potential conflict of interest. The Expert shall resolve any
matter relating to a Schedule or an amendment thereto as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days
after the matter has been submitted to the Expert for resolution. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the matter is not resolved
before any payment that is the subject of a disagreement would be due (in the absence of such disagreement) or any Tax Return reflecting
the subject of a disagreement is due, the undisputed amount shall be paid on the date prescribed by this Agreement and such Tax Return
may be filed as prepared by the Corporation, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. The costs and expenses relating to the
engagement of such Expert or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by the Corporation except as provided in the next sentence. The Corporation
and the TRA Parties shall each bear their own costs and expenses of such proceeding, unless (i) the Expert entirely adopts the position
of the TRA Parties, in which case the Corporation shall reimburse the TRA Parties for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs
and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert entirely adopts the Corporation’s position, in which case whichever of
the TRA Parties (or all of them) that disputed the position shall reimburse the Corporation for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
costs and expenses in such proceeding. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute and the determinations of the Expert
pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall be binding on the Corporation and the TRA Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court
having competent jurisdiction.


 






    21 


     


    

 


Section 7.10       Withholding.
The Corporation and its affiliates and representatives shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment that is payable to any
TRA Party pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment
in accordance with the Code or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign tax law (including for this purpose any withholding required
by the Corporation or its affiliates that may be required in connection with a Redemption or a Direct Exchange). To the extent that amounts
are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as having been paid by the Corporation to the relevant TRA Party. Each TRA Party shall promptly provide the Corporation with
any applicable tax forms and certifications reasonably requested by the Corporation in connection with determining whether any such deductions
and withholdings are required under the Code or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign tax law, including under Sections 1441,
1442, 1445 or 1446 of the Code. The Corporation will consider in good faith any applicable certificates, forms or documentation provided
by a TRA Party that in such TRA Party’s reasonable determination reduce or eliminate any such withholding.


 


Section 7.11       Consolidated
Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets.


 


(a)            The
parties acknowledge that the Corporation is not currently a member of a Corporate Group, but may become a member of a Corporate Group
in the future, and that in such event, the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to such Corporate Group (and any
other affiliated or consolidated Tax group of which the Corporation becomes a part), and that Tax Benefit Payments, Early Termination
Payments, and other applicable items hereunder shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income of the group as a whole.


 


(b)            If
the Corporation, its successors in interest or any member of a group described in Section 7.11(a) transfers one or more assets
to a corporation (or a Person classified as a corporation for U.S. income tax purposes) with which the Corporation does not file a consolidated
Tax Return for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (or if any entity that holds Reference Assets transfers any Reference Asset to a corporation
(or a Person classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) with which the Corporation does not file a consolidated
Tax Return for U.S. federal income Tax purposes), such entity, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Tax Benefit Payment or Early
Termination Payment due hereunder, shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Corporation and each TRA Party, be treated as having disposed
of such asset (or Reference Asset) in a fully taxable transaction on the date of such transfer. The consideration deemed to be received
by such entity shall be equal to the fair market value of the transferred asset. For purposes of this Section 7.11 a transfer of
a partnership interest shall be treated as a transfer of the transferring partner’s share of each of the assets and liabilities
of that partnership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if the Corporation, its successor in interest or any member
of a group described in Section 7.11(a), transfers its assets pursuant to a transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization”
(within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code) in which such entity does not survive or pursuant to any other transaction
to which Section 381(a) of the Code applies (other than any such reorganization or any such other transaction, in each case,
pursuant to which such entity transfers assets to a corporation with which the Corporation, its successor in interest or any member of
the group described in Section 7.11(a) (other than any such member being transferred in such reorganization or other transaction)
does not file a consolidated Tax Return for U.S. federal income Tax purposes), the transfer will not cause such entity to be treated as
having transferred any assets to a corporation (or a Person classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) pursuant
to this Section 7.11(b) so long as the relevant successor is bound by the provisions of this Agreement.


 






    22 


     


    

 


Section 7.12       Confidentiality.
Each TRA Party and its assignees acknowledges and agrees that the information of the Corporation and its Affiliates provided pursuant
to this Agreement is confidential and, except in the course of performing any duties as necessary for the Corporation and its Affiliates,
as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement, such Person shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence
and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters, acquired pursuant to this Agreement, of the Corporation and its Affiliates and
successors, learned by any TRA Party heretofore or hereafter. This Section 7.12 shall not apply to (i) any information that
has been made publicly available by the Corporation, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of any TRA Party in violation
of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community, (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent necessary for
a TRA Party to prosecute or defend claims arising under or relating to this Agreement, (iii) the disclosure of information to the
extent necessary for a TRA Party to prepare and file its Tax Returns, to respond to any inquiries regarding the same from any Taxing Authority
or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit by any Taxing Authority with respect to such Tax Returns, and (iv) the
disclosure of information necessary to effect an assignment, sale, pledge, alienation or transfer of any interest in this Agreement pursuant
to Section 7.6(a). If a TRA Party or an assignee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this
Section 7.12, the Corporation shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 7.12 specifically enforced
by injunctive relief or otherwise by any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being
acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries
and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate remedy to such Persons. Such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and
not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.


 


Section 7.13       Change
in Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, as a result of or, in connection with an actual or proposed change in
Tax law, a TRA Party reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could have material adverse tax consequences to such TRA
Party or any direct or indirect owner of such TRA Party, then at the written election of such TRA Party in its sole discretion (in an
instrument signed by such TRA Party and delivered to the Corporation) and to the extent specified therein by such TRA Party, this Agreement
shall cease to have further effect and shall not apply to an Exchange with respect to such TRA Party occurring after a date specified
by such TRA Party, or may be amended by the Corporation in a manner reasonably acceptable to such TRA Party, provided that such
amendment shall not result in an increase in any payments owed by the Corporation under this Agreement at any time as compared to the
amounts and times of payments that would have been due in the absence of such amendment and provided, further, that such amendment shall
not have any adverse effect on any other TRA Party.


 


Section 7.14       Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the interest paid or agreed to be paid hereunder with
respect to amounts due to any TRA Party hereunder shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable
law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any TRA Party shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excess interest shall be applied to the Tax Benefit Payment, Advance Payment or Early Termination Payment, as applicable (but in each
case exclusive of any component thereof comprising interest) or, if it exceeds such unpaid non-interest amount, refunded to the Corporation.
In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by any TRA Party exceeds the Maximum Rate, such TRA Party may,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather
than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in
equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the payment obligations owed by the Corporation
to such TRA Party hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Parties to conform strictly to any applicable
usury laws.


 






    23 


     


    

 


Section 7.15       Independent
Nature of Rights and Obligations. The rights and obligations of each TRA Party hereunder are several and not joint with the rights
and obligations of any other Person. A TRA Party shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Person hereunder, nor shall a TRA Party have the right to enforce the rights or obligations of any other Person hereunder (other than
the Corporation). Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any
TRA Party pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the TRA Parties acting as a partnership, an association, a joint venture
or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the TRA Parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect
to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Corporation acknowledges that the TRA Party are not acting
in concert or as a group and will not assert any such claim with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated
hereby.


 


Section 7.16       LLC
Agreement. 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.


 


Section 7.17       Tax
Characterization and Elections. The parties intend that (A) each Direct Exchange shall give rise to Basis Adjustments, (B) each
Redemption using cash contributed to the LLC by the Corporation shall be treated as a direct purchase of Units from the applicable TRA
Parties pursuant to Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code that shall give rise to Basis Adjustments and (C) payments pursuant
to this Agreement with respect to an Exchange (except with respect to amounts that constitute Imputed Interest) shall be treated as consideration
in respect of such Exchange that give rise to additional Basis Adjustments. The Corporation will ensure that, on and after the date hereof
and continuing through the term of this Agreement, the LLC and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries that they control and that
is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes will have in effect an election under Section 754 of the Code.


 


Section 7.18       Payment
Amounts. The Corporation and the TRA Parties agree that, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of any future Exchange
that may be subject to this Agreement, the aggregate value of the Tax Benefit Payments cannot be reasonably ascertained for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any TRA Holder may elect with respect to any Exchange
to limit the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments made to such TRA Holder in respect of that Exchange to a specified dollar amount, a specified
percentage of the amount realized by the TRA Holder with respect to the Exchange, or a specified portion of the Basis Adjustment with
respect to the Adjusted Assets as a result of the Exchange. The TRA Holder shall exercise its rights under the preceding sentence by including
a notice of its desire to impose such a limit and the specified limitation and such other details as may be reasonably necessary (including
whether such limitation includes the Additional Amounts in respect of any such Exchange) in the Exchange Notice delivered in accordance
with the Exchange Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.18 shall not limit any amounts payable in connection with
an Early Termination Payment.
