Duties, and Responsibilities. During the Term of Employment, Executive shall be employed and serve as the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company (together with such other position or positions consistent with Executive’s title as the Board shall specify

Section 4.       Compensation.


 


During the Term of Employment, Executive shall
be entitled to the following compensation:


 


(a)            Base
Salary. Executive shall be paid an annualized Base Salary (the “Base Salary”), payable in accordance with

Committee.


 


(b)            Annual
Bonus. Executive shall be eligible for an annual incentive bonus award determined by the Compensation Committee in respect
of each fiscal year during the Term of Employment (the “Annual Bonus”). The target Annual Bonus for each fiscal
year shall be 60% of Base Salary (the “Target Annual Bonus”), with the actual Annual Bonus, which may be higher
than the Target Annual Bonus, payable being based upon the level of achievement of annual Company and individual performance objectives
for such fiscal year, as determined by the Board (or Compensation Committee) in consultation with Executive. The Annual Bonus shall
otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of the annual bonus plan adopted by the Board or the Compensation Committee, if
any, under which bonuses are generally payable to senior executives of the Company, as in effect from time to time. The Annual
Bonus shall be paid in cash to Executive at the same time as annual bonuses are generally payable to other senior executives of
the Company, but in no event later than April 15th of the year following the year to which such Annual bonus relates,
subject to Executive’s continuous employment through the end of the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates (subject
to Section 7 below). The Annual Bonus for the 2019 shall be no less than the Target Annual Bonus, prorated based on Executive’s
service in 2019; provided, that to the extent that actual performance exceeds the target performance objectives for 2019, Executive
will be eligible to receive an Annual Bonus that exceeds the prorated Target Annual Bonus.


 


(c)            Equity
Participation. In connection with the commencement of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be entitled to
participate in and, on the date on which Executive’s employment hereunder commences, shall receive a grant under the EQT
Avatar Parent L.P. 2017 Class B Profits Interest Unit Incentive Plan, pursuant to the terms of such plan, the Amended and
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the Parent, dated August 15, 2017, and the Award Agreement (the “Equity
Documents”). Executive’s equity participation shall be exclusively governed by the terms of the Equity Documents.


 


Section 5.       Employee
Benefits.


 


During the Term of Employment, Executive shall
be entitled to participate in health, insurance, retirement, and other benefits provided generally to senior executives of the
Company. Executive shall also be entitled twenty-five (25) vacation days and to the same number of holidays and sick days, as well
as any other benefits, in each case as are generally allowed to senior executives of the Company in accordance with the Company
policy as in effect from time to time. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit the Company’s ability to amend,
suspend, or terminate any employee benefit plan or policy at any time, and the right to do so is expressly reserved.

Section 6.       Reimbursement
of Expenses.


 


(a)            Executive

Company shall promptly reimburse him for all such reasonable business expenses, subject to documentation in accordance with the
Company’s policy, as in effect from time to time.


 


(b)            The
Company agrees to promptly reimburse Executive for all reasonable and documented legal fees incurred by Executive in connection
with the review and negotiation of this Agreement and the Equity Documents as well as for all reasonable and documented costs,
including legal fees, incurred by Executive in connection with the enforcement of his rights under this Agreement and the Equity
Documents.


 


Section 7.       Termination
of Employment.


 


(a)            General.
The Term of Employment, and Executive’s employment hereunder, shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) Executive’s
death, (ii) a termination by reason of a Disability, (iii) a termination by the Company with or without Cause, and (iv) a
termination by Executive with or without Good Reason. Except as otherwise expressly required by law (e.g., COBRA) or as specifically
provided herein, all of Executive’s rights to Base Salary, Annual Bonus, employee benefits and other compensatory amounts
hereunder (if any) shall cease upon the termination of Executive’s employment hereunder.


 


(b)            Deemed
Resignation. Upon any termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, except as may otherwise be requested by the
Company in writing and agreed upon in writing by Executive, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from any and all directorships,
committee memberships, and any other positions Executive holds with the Company or any other member of the Company Group.


 


(c)            Termination
Due to Death or Disability. Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon his death. The Company may terminate
Executive’s employment immediately upon the occurrence of a Disability, such termination to be effective upon Executive’s
receipt of written notice of such termination. Upon Executive’s death or in the event that Executive’s employment is
terminated due to his Disability, Executive or his estate or his beneficiaries, as the case may be, shall be entitled to:


 


(i)            The
Accrued Obligations;


 


(ii)           Any
unpaid Annual Bonus in respect of any completed fiscal year that has ended prior to the date of such termination, which amount
shall be paid at such time annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives of the Company, but in no event later than the date
that is 21⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which such termination occurred (the “Prior Year
Bonus Amount”); and


 


(iii)           Subject
to satisfaction of the applicable performance objectives applicable for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs, an amount
equal to (A) the Annual Bonus otherwise payable to Executive for the fiscal year in which such termination occurred, assuming
Executive had remained employed through the applicable payment date, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the number of days elapsed from the commencement of such fiscal year through the date of such termination and the denominator
of which is 365 (or 366, as applicable), which amount shall be paid at such time annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives
of the Company, but in no event later than the date that is 21⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which
such termination occurred (the “Current Year Bonus Amount”).

Following Executive’s death or a termination of Executive’s
employment by reason of a Disability, except as set forth in this Section 7(c), Executive shall have no further rights to
any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.


 


(d)            Termination
by the Company for Cause.


 


(i)            The
Company may terminate Executive’s employment at any time for Cause, effective upon delivery to Executive of written notice
of such termination; provided, however, that with respect to any Cause termination relying on clause (i), (ii), (vi),
or (vii) of the definition of Cause, to the extent that such act or acts or failure or failures to act are curable, Executive
shall be given not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice by the Board of the Company’s intention to terminate
him for Cause, such notice to state in detail the particular act or acts or failure or failures to act that constitute the grounds
on which the proposed termination for Cause is based, and such termination shall be effective at the expiration of such thirty
(30)-day notice period unless Executive has fully cured such act or acts or failure or failures to act that give rise to Cause
during such period.


 


(ii)            In
the event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, he shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations.
Following such termination of Executive’s employment for Cause, except as set forth in this Section 7(d)(ii), Executive
shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.


 


(e)            Termination
by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause by giving Executive thirty
(30) days’ written notice of such termination. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company
without Cause (other than due to death or Disability), Executive shall be entitled to:


 


(i)            The
Accrued Obligations;


 


(ii)          The
Prior Year Bonus Amount;


 


(iii)         The
Current Year Bonus Amount;


 


(iv)         An
amount equal to the sum of (x) Base Salary, plus (y) the Target Annual Bonus, such amount to be paid in substantially
equal payments during the Severance Term, and payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices; and


 






    -6-


     


    

 


(v)            Subject
to Executive’s election of COBRA continuation coverage under the Company’s group health plan, payment, on the first
regularly scheduled payroll date of each month during the Severance Term, of an amount equal to the difference between the monthly
COBRA premium cost and the monthly contribution paid by active employees for the same level of coverage; provided, that
the payments described in this clause (iii) shall cease earlier than the expiration of the Severance Term in the event that
Executive and his eligible dependents become eligible to receive any health benefits as a result of Executive’s subsequent
employment or service during the Severance Term.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payments and benefits described
in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above shall immediately terminate, and the Company shall have no further obligations
to Executive with respect thereto, in the event that Executive breaches the Restrictive Covenants. Following such termination of
Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause, except as set forth in this Section 7(e), Executive shall have
no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive’s
sole and exclusive remedy upon a termination of employment by the Company without Cause shall be receipt of the Severance Benefits.


 


(f)            Termination
by Executive with Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment with Good Reason by providing the Company thirty (30)
days’ written notice setting forth in reasonable specificity the event that constitutes Good Reason, which written notice,
to be effective, must be provided to the Company within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such event (or the date Executive
became aware of such event, if later). During such thirty (30)-day notice period, the Company shall have a cure right (if curable),
and if not cured within such period, Executive must terminate his employment within thirty (30) days following the end of such
cure period, and Executive shall be entitled to the same payments and benefits as provided in Section 7(e) hereof for
a termination by the Company without Cause, subject to the same conditions on payment and benefits as described in Section 7(e) hereof.
Following such termination of Executive’s employment by Executive with Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 7(f),
Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt,
Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy upon a termination of employment with Good Reason shall be receipt of the Severance
Benefits.


 


(g)            Termination
by Executive without Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment without Good Reason by providing the Company thirty
(30) days’ written notice of such termination. In the event of a termination of employment by Executive under this Section 7(g),
Executive shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations. In the event of termination of Executive’s employment under
this Section 7(g), the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice accelerate such date of termination
without changing the characterization of such termination as a termination by Executive without Good Reason. Following such termination
of Executive’s employment by Executive without Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 7(g), Executive shall
have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.


 






    -7-


     


    

 


(h)            Release.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the payment of any amount or provision of any benefit pursuant to subsection
(d) or (e) of this Section 7 (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”), other than the Accrued
Obligations, shall be conditioned upon Executive’s execution, delivery to the Company, and non-revocation of the Release
of Claims (and the expiration of any revocation period contained in such Release of Claims) within sixty (60) days following the
date of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder (the “Release Execution Period”). If Executive
fails to execute the Release of Claims in such a timely manner so as to permit any revocation period to expire prior to the end
of such sixty (60) day period, or timely revokes his acceptance of such release following its execution, Executive shall not be
entitled to any of the Severance Benefits. No portion of the Severance (other than Accrued Obligations) shall be paid until the
Release has become effective and all such amounts shall commence to be paid on the first regular payroll date of the Company after
the Release has become effective; provided, that, if the Release Execution Period overlaps two calendar years, the first
payment shall not be made sooner than the first day of the second year, and shall include any missed payments.


 


Section 8.       Certain
Payments.


 


In the event that (i) Executive is entitled
to receive any payment, benefit or distribution of any type to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable, provided
or to be provided, or distributed or distributable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, the “Payments”),
and (ii) the net after-tax amount of such Payments, after Executive has paid all taxes due thereon (including, without limitation,
taxes due under Section 4999 of the Code) is less than the net after-tax amount of all such Payments otherwise due to Executive
in the aggregate, if such Payments were reduced to an amount equal to 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount” (as
defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), then the aggregate amount of such Payments payable to Executive shall be
reduced to an amount that will equal 2.99 times Executive’s base amount. To the extent such aggregate parachute payment amounts
are required to be so reduced, the parachute payment amounts due to Executive (but no non-parachute payment amounts) shall be reduced
in the following order: (i) the parachute payments that are payable in cash shall be reduced (if necessary, to zero) with
amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity, valued at full value
(rather than accelerated value), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24); and (iii) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clause (ii) of this
Section 8 reduced last. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will use its good faith best efforts to solicit shareholder
approval of Executive’s “excess parachute payments” in accordance with Section 280G of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder if Q&A 7 of the 280G regulations is applicable and Executive first waives the right to receive
excess parachute payments unless approved by shareholders.


 


Section 9.       Restrictive
Covenants


 


Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive
nature of the business of the Company Group, that access to Confidential Information renders Executive special and unique within
the industry of the Company Group, and that Executive will have the opportunity to develop substantial relationships with existing
and prospective clients, accounts, customers, consultants, contractors, investors, and strategic partners of the Company Group
during the course of and as a result of Executive’s employment with the Company. In light of the foregoing, as a condition
of Executive’s employment by the Company, and in consideration of Executive’s employment hereunder and the compensation
and benefits provided herein, Executive acknowledges and agrees to the Restrictive Covenants, the terms of which are incorporated
herein by reference and made a part hereof. Executive further recognizes and acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations
set forth in the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects and
are essential to protect the value of the business and assets of the Company Group.

(under the same circumstances) on the date of his ultimate “separation from service.”

however, that the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered
by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement

taxes under Section 409A of the Code, in no event whatsoever shall any member of the Company Group be liable for any additional
tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on Executive as a result of Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing

if any, under Section 409A of the Code).

or other designee, or if there be no such designee, to Executive’s estate.


 


(c)           No
Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 7(c) or Section 15(b) hereof, nothing
expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person other than the Company, the other members of the
Company Group, and Executive any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision

Exhibit A


 


RELEASE OF CLAIMS


 


As used in this Release of Claims (this “Release”),
the term “claims” will include all claims, covenants, warranties, promises, undertakings, actions, suits, causes of
action, obligations, debts, accounts, attorneys’ fees, judgments, losses, and liabilities, of whatsoever kind or nature,
in law, in equity, or otherwise.


 


For and in consideration of the Severance
Benefits, and other good and valuable consideration, I, William Feehery, for and on behalf of myself and my heirs, administrators,
executors, and assigns, effective the date on which this release becomes effective pursuant to its terms, do fully and forever
release, remise, and discharge each of the Parent and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries and affiliates, including the
Company, together with their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Group”)
from any and all claims whatsoever up to the date hereof that I had, may have had, or now have against the Group, for or by reason
of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever, including any claim arising out of or attributable to my employment or the termination
of my employment with the Company, whether for tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, intentional infliction of
emotional distress, wrongful termination, unjust dismissal, defamation, libel, or slander, or under any federal, state, or local
law dealing with discrimination based on age, race, sex, national origin, handicap, religion, disability, or sexual orientation.
This release of claims includes, but is not limited to, all claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”),
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Family Medical Leave
Act, and the Equal Pay Act, each as may be amended from time to time, and all other federal, state, and local laws, the common
law, and any other purported restriction on an employer’s right to terminate the employment of employees. The release contained
herein is intended to be a general release of any and all claims to the fullest extent permissible by law.


 


I acknowledge and agree that as of the date
I execute this Release, I have no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that give rise or could give rise to any claims
under any of the laws listed in the preceding paragraph.


 


By executing this Release, I specifically
release all claims relating to my employment and its termination under ADEA, a United States federal statute that, among other
things, prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment and employee benefit plans.


 


Notwithstanding any provision of this Release
to the contrary, by executing this Release, I am not releasing (i) any claims relating to my rights under Section 7
of the Employment Agreement, including under the Equity Documents, (ii) any claims that cannot be waived by law, or (iii) my
right of indemnification as provided by, and in accordance with the terms of, the Company’s by-laws or a Company insurance
policy or agreement providing such coverage, as any of such may be amended from time to time.


 


I expressly acknowledge and agree that I –


 


▪     Am
able to read the language, and understand the meaning and effect, of this Release;


 


▪       Have
no physical or mental impairment of any kind that has interfered with my ability to read and understand the meaning of this Release
or its terms, and that I am not acting under the influence of any medication, drug, or chemical of any type in entering into this
Release;


 






    


     


    

 


▪       Am
specifically agreeing to the terms of the release contained in this Release because the Company has agreed to pay me the Severance
Benefits in consideration for my agreement to accept it in full settlement of all possible claims I might have or ever had, and
because of my execution of this Release;


 


▪       Acknowledge
that, but for my execution of this Release, I would not be entitled to the Severance Benefits;


 


▪       Understand
that, by entering into this Release, I do not waive rights or claims under ADEA that may arise after the date I execute this
Release;


 


▪       Had
or could have [twenty-one (21)][forty-five (45)]1 days
from the date of my termination of employment (the “Release Expiration Date”) in which to review and consider this
Release, and that if I execute this Release prior to the Release Expiration Date, I have voluntarily and knowingly waived
the remainder of the review period;


 


▪       Have
not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth in this Release or my Employment Agreement made by the Company or
any of its representatives;


 


▪       Was
advised to consult with my attorney regarding the terms and effect of this Release; and


 


▪       Have
signed this Release knowingly and voluntarily.


 


I represent and warrant that I have not previously
filed, and to the maximum extent permitted by law agree that I will not file, a complaint, charge, or lawsuit against any member
of the Group regarding any of the claims released herein. If, notwithstanding this representation and warranty, I have filed
or file such a complaint, charge, or lawsuit, I agree that I shall cause such complaint, charge, or lawsuit to be dismissed
with prejudice and shall pay any and all costs required in obtaining dismissal of such complaint, charge, or lawsuit, including
without limitation the attorneys’ fees of any member of the Group against whom I have filed such a complaint, charge, or
lawsuit. This paragraph shall not apply, however, to a claim of age discrimination under ADEA or to any non-waivable right to file
a charge with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”); provided, however,
that if the EEOC were to pursue any claims relating to my employment with Company, I agree that I shall not be entitled to
recover any monetary damages or any other remedies or benefits as a result and that this Release and the Severance Benefits will
control as the exclusive remedy and full settlement of all such claims by me.

an exit incentive or other employment termination program” (as such phrase is defined in the Age Discrimination in Employment
Act of 1967).

Nothing in this Release shall prohibit or
impede me from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any Governmental Entity with respect to possible violations
of any U.S. federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any Governmental Entity, in each case,
that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation; provided, that in each case such communications
and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. I understand and acknowledge that an individual shall not be held criminally
or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (1) in confidence
to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected
violation of law, or (2) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under
seal. I understand and acknowledge further that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting
a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information
in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the
trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph or under applicable law, under no
circumstance am I authorized to disclose any information covered by the Company’s attorney-client privilege or attorney work
product, or the Company’s trade secrets, without the prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel or other
officer designated by the Company. I do not need the prior authorization of (or to give notice to) any member of the Company Group
regarding any communication, disclosure, or activity permitted by this paragraph.


 


I hereby agree to waive any and all claims
to re-employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group and affirmatively agree not to seek further employment
with the Company or any other member of the Company Group.


 


Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, this Release will not become effective or enforceable prior to the expiration of the period of seven (7) calendar
days following the date of its execution by me (the “Revocation Period”), during which time I may revoke my
acceptance of this Release by notifying the Company, in writing, delivered to the Company at its principal executive office, marked
for the attention of its General Counsel, with copy to the Board. To be effective, such revocation must be received by the Company
no later than 11:59 p.m. on the seventh (7th) calendar day following the execution of this Release. Provided
that the Release is executed and I do not revoke it during the Revocation Period, the eighth (8th) day following the
date on which this Release is executed shall be its effective date. I acknowledge and agree that if I revoke this Release during
the Revocation Period, this Release will be null and void and of no effect, and neither the Company nor any other member of the
Group will have any obligations to pay me the Severance Benefits.


 


The provisions of this Release shall be binding
upon my heirs, executors, administrators, legal personal representatives, and assigns. If any provision of this Release shall be
held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force or effect.
The illegality or unenforceability of such provision, however, shall have no effect upon and shall not impair the enforceability
of any other provision of this Release.

EXCEPT WHERE PREEMPTED BY FEDERAL LAW,
THIS RELEASE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL LAW AND THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA,
APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THAT STATE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.
I HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
RELEASE.


 


Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein,
shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in my Employment Agreement, dated May 14, 2019, with the Company (the “Employment

as applicable);


 


WHEREAS, the Participant

Defined terms are as set forth in Exhibit I hereto.


 


2.            Award
of Class B Profits Interest Units.


 


(a)           Class B
Profits Interest Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the Partnership hereby grants to
the Participant an award of the number of Class B Profits Interest Units set forth on the Participant’s Master Signature
Page, with a Distribution Threshold as set forth on such Master Signature Page, in each case subject to adjustment as set forth

3.            Vesting.
The Class B Profits Interest Units granted to the Participant shall vest in accordance with this Section 3. All such
Class B Profits Interest Units shall be unvested on the Date of Grant and shall vest as follows:


 


(a)           Time
Vesting Units: With respect to 50% of the Class B Profits Interest Units subject to this Agreement (the “Time
Vesting Units”), so long as the Participant has not undergone a Termination prior to the applicable vesting date,
25% of the Time Vesting Units will vest on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant (the “First Vesting Date”)
and 2.0833% will vest on each monthly anniversary of the First Vesting Date (such that in the ordinary course, assuming no Termination,
the Time Vesting Units shall fully vest on the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant); provided, however, that
all unvested Time Vesting Units will vest upon the consummation of a Change in Control.

of Performance Vesting Units that vest at the level that is achieved, an additional number of Performance Vesting Units will vest
based on a linear interpolation between the applicable levels between which the Return on Investment falls. Performance Vesting
Units that do not vest prior to or upon the Final Measurement Date will be forfeited upon such Final Measurement Date.


 






    


     


    

 


 


4.           General
Termination of Employment Provisions; Breach of Restrictive Covenants Agreement.


 


(a)           All
vesting of Class B Profits Interest Units will cease immediately upon a Participant’s Termination for any reason, all
unvested Class B Profits Interest Units will be immediately cancelled and forfeited without consideration upon such Termination,
and if such Termination is by the Service Recipient for Cause, all vested Class B Profits Interest Units will be immediately
cancelled and forfeited without consideration upon such Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Participant’s
Termination by the Service Recipient without Cause, by the Participant for Good Reason, or due to the Participant’s death
or Disability, (i) the Time-Vesting Units scheduled to vest during the 12 month period following Participant’s date
of Termination shall vest on the date of the Participant’s Termination and (ii) the Participant’s Performance
Vesting Units shall remain outstanding and eligible to vest upon any Measurement Date that occurs during the six-month period following
the date of such Termination, and any Performance Vesting Units that do not vest prior to the expiration of such six-month period
will be immediately cancelled and forfeited without consideration at the end of such period.


 


(b)           Breach
of Restrictive Covenants Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event of an RC Breach, all
Class B Profits Interest Units (whether vested or unvested) will immediately be cancelled and forfeited without consideration.


 


5.           Rights
as Holder of Class B Profits Interest Units. The Participant shall be the record owner of the Class B Profits Interest
Units granted hereunder unless and until such Class B Profits Interest Units are forfeited pursuant to Section 4, repurchased
pursuant to Section 10 hereof or transferred in accordance with Section 7, and as record owner shall be entitled to all
rights of a holder of Class B Profits Interest Units; provided, that the Class B Profits Interest Units shall
be subject to the limitations on transfer and encumbrance set forth in this Agreement, the Plan and the Partnership Agreement.


 


6.           Investment
Intent; Other Representations of Participant.


 


(a)            Investment
Intent. The Participant hereby represents and warrants that the Class B Profits Interest Units will be held for investment
purposes and are not being received with a view to distribution thereof, and covenants and agrees to make such other reasonable
and customary representations as requested by the Partnership regarding matters relevant to compliance with applicable securities
laws as are deemed necessary by counsel to the Partnership; and


 


(b)            No
Reliance on the Partnership. In making his or her investment decision with respect to the receipt of the Class B Profits
Interest Units, the Participant has not relied upon the Partnership or any of its Affiliates, or any representative thereof for
any advice of any sort, including, but not limited to, tax or securities law advice.


 






    


     


    

 


7.           Transferability.
The Participant may Transfer, directly or indirectly, any Class B Profits Interest Unit or any interest in any Class B
Profits Interest Unit only with the prior written consent of the Board, which consent shall be withheld or granted in the sole
discretion of the Board, or as otherwise expressly permitted or required under the Partnership Agreement. Any purported assignment,
transfer or grant by the Participant, directly or indirectly, of any Class B Profits Interest Unit or any interest in any
Class B Profits Interest Unit which is made without such prior written consent or pursuant to the terms of the Partnership
Agreement shall be entirely null and void, ab initio.


 


8.           Section 83(b) Election
and Certain Related Income Tax Considerations. As a condition subsequent to the issuance of the Class B Profits Interest
Units pursuant to this Agreement, the Participant shall execute and deliver to each of the Partnership, the entity to whom the
Participant provides services and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) a timely, valid election under
Section 83(b) of the Code (the “83(b) Election”). The Participant hereby acknowledges
that (x) the Partnership has not provided, and is not hereby providing, the Participant with tax advice regarding the 83(b) Election
and has urged the Participant to consult the Participant’s own tax advisor with respect to the income taxation consequences
thereof, and (y) the Partnership has not advised the Participant to rely on any determination by it or its representatives
as to the fair market value specified in the 83(b) Election and will have no liability to the Participant if the actual fair
market value of the Class B Profits Interest Units on the date hereof exceeds the amount specified in the 83(b) Election.


 


9.           Becoming
a Partner of The Partnership; No Access to Information Regarding The Partnership. As a further condition to the issuance of
the Class B Profits Interest Units pursuant to this Agreement, the Participant shall execute and deliver to the Partnership
a copy of the Partnership Agreement, together with such other documents as the General Partner or the Board may require, evidencing
such Participant’s status as a Partner (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the Partnership. Notwithstanding the
Participant’s status as a Partner of the Partnership, the Participant shall have no right, solely by virtue of holding a
Class B Profits Interest Unit, to (a) examine the books and records of or any other information of the Partnership or
(b) obtain any information about the identities of the other Partners of the Partnership (or of the size or nature of such
other Partners’ interests in the Partnership).


 


10.         Right
to Repurchase Class B Profits Interest Units.


 


(a)            The
Class B Profits Interest Units are subject to the Partnership’s right of repurchase (the “Call Right”)
exercisable by the Partnership in its sole discretion during the ninety (90) day period following (x) the later of (i) the
Termination of such Participant’s employment with the Service Recipient for any reason and (ii) the six (6) month
anniversary of the date such Class B Profits Interest Units became vested, and, if later, (y) a breach of any of the
provisions in any Restrictive Covenant Agreement. The Call Right shall expire on the earlier of (i) an IPO or (ii) a
Change in Control.


 






    


     


    

 


(b)            In
the event the Call Right is exercised, the purchase price for the Class B Profits Interest Units subject to the exercised
Call Right shall be the Fair Market Value per unit on the date such Call Right is exercised, provided, however, that in the event
the Participant disagrees with the Fair Market Value as determined by the Board in connection with any repurchase of Class B
Profits Interest Units, the Participant may, within thirty (30) days following the Participant’s receipt of the notice of
the Partnership’s exercise of the Call Right, require the Board to seek an independent appraisal to determine the Fair Market
Value of the Class B Profits Interest Units (an “Outside Appraisal”). Any such Outside Appraisal
shall be made by a qualified accounting firm or investment banking firm or similar firm having substantial experience in the valuation
of similar enterprises in the United States that is mutually agreed upon by the Partnership and the Participant (an “Appraiser”).
The Partnership shall bear 100% of the fees and expenses of the Appraiser; provided, however, that the Participant shall immediately
reimburse the Partnership for 50% of the fees and expenses of the Appraiser if the Fair Market Value of a Class B Profits
Interest Unit as determined by the Appraiser is less than or equal to 110% of the Fair Market Value as determined by the Board.
The determination of Fair Market Value by the Appraiser shall be binding on the parties.


 


(c)            In
the event the Call Right is exercised, the aggregate purchase price for such Class B Profits Interest Units subject to the
exercised Call Right will be payable by the Partnership (or, if applicable, the Initial EQT Investors or one of their affiliates)
in cash in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of the exercise of such repurchase right (or the date on which the Appraiser determines
Fair Market Value, if later) (the “Repurchase Date”),; provided, that if the Partnership is prohibited
from paying in cash under any applicable financing arrangement, any applicable installment may be paid by promissory note in installments
of up to three years. Any amounts not paid in full within thirty (30) days of the Repurchase Date will bear interest at the prime
lending rate in effect as of the Repurchase Date. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Partnership may elect
to pay the purchase price hereunder in shares or other equity securities of one of its respective direct or indirect subsidiaries
with a fair market value equal to the applicable purchase price; provided, that such subsidiary promptly repurchases such shares
or other equity securities for cash equal to the applicable purchase price.


 


11.         Restrictive
Covenants. Participant acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Partnership Group
and its Affiliates and accordingly agrees, in Participant’s capacity as an investor and equity holder in the Partnership,
to the provisions of Appendix A to this Agreement. Participant acknowledges and agrees that remedies of the Partnership
Group at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Appendix A would be inadequate and the Partnership

Non-Solicitation; Non-Interference. Participant acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses
of the Partnership Group and its Affiliates and accordingly agrees as follows:


 


(a)           Prior
to the Participant’s Termination for any reason (the “Employment Term”) and until the first anniversary
of Participant’s Termination, Participant will not (i) directly or indirectly, in any geographic location in which the
Partnership Group engages, own, operate, manage, control, invest in, lend to, acquire an interest in, or otherwise engage or participate
in (whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, partner, shareholder, joint venturer, investor, or any other type
of participant) the management or conduct of any business activities, whether through selling, distributing, manufacturing, marketing,
purchasing, or otherwise, that compete directly or indirectly with the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group (“Competitive
Activities”), it being understood that Competitive Activities as of the date hereof include, without limitation,
principally engaging in the business of model based drug development consulting services or technology solutions, including with
respect to discovery, pre-clinical, clinical and postmarketing drug development and regulatory submissions and review and any other
business in which the Partnership is actively engaged at the time of termination (the “Business”).


 


(b)           During
the Employment Term and until the first anniversary of Participant’s Termination, Participant will not directly or indirectly:


 


(i)            (A) solicit
or induce any customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation (or any actively sought prospective customer, supplier,
licensee, or other business relation) of the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group to cease doing business with or
materially reduce the amount of business conducted with the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group, or materially interfere

or intentionally assist any Person in any substantive or direct way to do, or attempt to do, anything prohibited by clause (A) above;

Service Recipient); or (B) knowingly or intentionally assist any Person in any substantive or direct way to do, or attempt
to do, anything prohibited by clause (A) above.


 






    


     


    

 


(c)           If
a final and non-appealable judicial determination is made that any of the provisions of this Section 1 constitutes an unreasonable
or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Participant, the provisions of this Section 1 will not be rendered void but
will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to remain in force and effect for the longest period and largest
geographic area that would not constitute such an unreasonable or unenforceable restriction.


 


(d)           The
period of time during which the provisions of this Section 1 shall be in effect shall be extended by the length of time during
which Participant is in breach of the terms hereof.


 


(e)           The
provisions of Section 1 hereof shall survive the termination of Participant’s employment for any reason.


 


2.            Confidentiality;
Intellectual Property.


 


(a)           Confidentiality.


 


(i)            Participant
acknowledges that the Confidential Information obtained by Participant while employed by the Service Recipient is the property
of the Partnership Group. Therefore, Participant agrees that Participant shall not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for
Participant’s own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Partnership, unless and
to the extent that the aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result
of Participant’s acts or omissions in violation of this Agreement; provided, however, that if Participant receives a request
to disclose Confidential Information pursuant to a deposition, interrogation, request for information or documents in legal proceedings,
subpoena, civil investigative demand, governmental or regulatory process, or similar process, (i) Participant shall, as promptly
as practicable, notify in writing the Partnership, and consult with and reasonably assist the Partnership, at the Partnership’s
expense, in seeking a protective order or request for other appropriate remedy, (ii) in the event that such protective order
or remedy is not obtained, or if the Partnership waives compliance with the terms hereof, Participant shall disclose only that
portion of the Confidential Information which, based on the advice of Participant’s legal counsel, is legally required to
be disclosed and shall exercise reasonable best efforts to provide that the receiving Person shall agree to treat such Confidential
Information as confidential to the extent possible (and permitted under applicable law) in respect of the applicable proceeding
or process, and (iii) the Partnership shall be given an opportunity to review the Confidential Information prior to disclosure
thereof.


 






    


     


    

 


(ii)           For
purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information, observations, and data concerning
the business or affairs of the Partnership Group, including, without limitation, all business information (whether or not in written
form) that relates to any member of the Partnership Group, or its customers, suppliers, or contractors or any other third parties
in respect of which the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group has a business relationship or owes a duty of confidentiality,
or their respective businesses or products, and that is not known to the public generally other than as a result of Participant’s
breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to technical information or reports, formulas, trade secrets, unwritten knowledge
and “know-how,” operating instructions, training manuals, customer lists, customer buying records and habits, product
sales records and documents, and product development, marketing, and sales strategies, market surveys, marketing plans, profitability
analyses, product cost, long-range plans, information relating to pricing, competitive strategies, and new product development,
information relating to any forms of compensation or other personnel-related information, contracts, and supplier lists. Confidential
Information will not include such information known to Participant prior to Participant’s involvement with the Partnership
or any predecessor thereof or information rightfully obtained from a third party (other than pursuant to a breach by Participant
of this Agreement). Without limiting the foregoing, Participant and the Partnership each agree to keep confidential the existence
of, and any information concerning, any dispute between Participant and the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group,
except that Participant and the Partnership each may disclose information concerning such dispute to the court that is considering
such dispute or to their respective legal counsel, immediate family and advisors (provided that such counsel agrees not to disclose
any such information other than as necessary to the prosecution or defense of such dispute).


 


(iii)          Participant
acknowledges that all notes, memoranda, specifications, devices, formulas, records, files, lists, drawings, documents, models,
equipment, property, computer, software, or intellectual property relating to the businesses of the Partnership Group, in whatever
form (including electronic), and all copies thereof, that are received or created by Participant while an employee of the Service
Recipient (including but not limited to Confidential Information and Inventions) are and shall remain the property of the Partnership
Group, and Participant shall as promptly as practicable return such property to the Partnership upon the termination of Participant’s
employment and, in any event, at the Partnership’s request.


 


(iv)          Participant
agrees further that Participant will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any
former employers or any other Person to whom Participant has an obligation of confidentiality, and will not bring onto the premises
of the Partnership or any member of the Partnership Group any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer
or any other Person to whom Participant has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer
or other Person.


 






    


     


    

 


(b)           Nothing
in this Agreement shall prohibit or impede the Participant from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any U.S.
federal, state or local governmental or law enforcement branch, agency or entity (collectively, a “Governmental Entity”)
with respect to possible violations of any U.S. federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any
Governmental Entity, in each case, that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation, provided
that in each case such communications and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. The Participant understands and acknowledges
that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure
of a trade secret that is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely
for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed
in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. The Participant understands and acknowledges further that
an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade
secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files
any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, under no circumstance will the Participant be authorized to disclose any information covered by attorney-client
privilege or attorney work product of any member of the Company without prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel
or other officer designated by the Company.


 


(c)           Intellectual
Property.


 


(i)            Participant
agrees that the results and proceeds of Participant’s services for the Partnership Group (including, but not limited to,
any Confidential Information and other trade secrets, products, services, processes, know-how, designs, developments, innovations,
analyses, drawings, reports, techniques, formulas, methods, developmental or experimental work, improvements, discoveries, inventions,
ideas, source and object codes, programs, matters of a literary, musical, dramatic, or otherwise creative nature, writings, and
other works of authorship) resulting from services performed while an employee of the Partnership and any works in progress, whether
or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, that were made, developed, conceived, or reduced to practice
or learned by Participant, either alone or jointly with others (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be
works-made-for-hire, and the Partnership (or, if applicable or as directed by the Partnership, any member of the Partnership Group)
shall be deemed the sole owner throughout the universe of any and all trade secret, patent, copyright, and other intellectual property
rights (collectively, “Proprietary Rights”) of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter
known, existing, contemplated, recognized, or developed, with the right to use the same in perpetuity in any manner the Partnership
determines in its sole discretion, without any further payment to Participant whatsoever. If, for any reason, any of such results
and proceeds shall not legally be a work-made-for-hire or there are any Proprietary Rights that do not accrue to the Partnership
(or, as the case may be, any member of the Partnership Group) under the immediately preceding sentence, then Participant hereby
irrevocably assigns and agrees to assign any and all of Participant’s right, title, and interest thereto, including any and
all Proprietary Rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized,
or developed, to the Partnership (or, if applicable or as directed by the Partnership, any member of the Partnership Group), and
the Partnership or such member of the Partnership Group shall have the right to use the same in perpetuity throughout the universe
in any manner determined by the Partnership or such member of the Partnership Group without any further payment to Participant
whatsoever. As to any Invention that Participant is required to assign, Participant shall promptly and fully disclose to the Partnership
all information known to Participant concerning such Invention.


 






    


     


    

 


 


(ii)           Participant
agrees that, from time to time, as may be requested by the Partnership and at the Partnership’s sole cost and expense, Participant
shall do any and all things that the Partnership may reasonably deem useful or desirable to establish or document the Partnership’s
exclusive ownership throughout the United States of America or any other country of any and all Proprietary Rights in any such
Inventions, including the execution of appropriate copyright or patent applications or assignments. To the extent that Participant
has any Proprietary Rights in the Inventions that cannot be assigned in the manner described above, Participant unconditionally
and irrevocably waives the enforcement of such Proprietary Rights. This Section 2(b)(ii) is subject to and shall not
be deemed to limit, restrict, or constitute any waiver by the Partnership of ownership of any Proprietary Rights to which the
Partnership (or other applicable member of the Partnership Group) may be entitled by operation of law by virtue of the Partnership’s
(or other applicable member of the Partnership Group’s) being Participant’s employer. Participant agrees further that,
from time to time, as may be requested by the Partnership and at the Partnership’s sole cost and expense, Participant shall
assist the Partnership in every reasonable, proper and lawful way to obtain and from time to time enforce Proprietary Rights relating
to Inventions in any and all countries. To this end, Participant shall execute, verify, and deliver such documents and perform
such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Partnership may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining,
perfecting, evidencing, sustaining, and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, Participant
shall execute, verify, and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to the Partnership or its designees. Participant’s
obligation to assist the Partnership with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Inventions in any and all countries shall
continue beyond the termination of Participant’s employment with the Service Recipient.


 


(iii)          Participant
hereby waives and quitclaims to the Partnership any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that Participant now or may hereafter
have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Partnership.


 


3.            Non-Disparagement.
Participant shall not, whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Partnership,
any other member of the Partnership Group, or any of their respective predecessors or successors, or any of their respective current
or former managers, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, members, agents, or representatives, with respect to
any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally)
statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light. The Partnership shall instruct its members,
the members of its board of directors, and the senior executives of the Service Recipient, in their capacities as such, not to,
whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage Participant with respect to his past
or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally) statements that tend to
portray Participant in an unfavorable light.
