Company. 
 8. Management by Member. The powers of the Company shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the

(c) Removal. Any Officer elected or appointed by the Member may be removed, with or without cause, by the Member, but
such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the Officer so removed. Election or appointment of an Officer shall not of itself create contract rights.

11. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Member, its shareholders, officers, directors, employees

expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments, fines, settlements and any other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands or proceedings,
paid or accrued by an Indemnitee in connection with the business of the Company, to the fullest extent provided or allowed by the laws of the State of Delaware. Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand or proceeding subject
to this Section 11 shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amounts if
it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized by this Section 11. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Section 11 shall be in addition to any other rights to
which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, consent of the Member, as a matter of law or equity, or otherwise, shall be considered contractual obligations of the Company which shall be deemed vested as of the date that such Indemnitee
became an Indemnitee, shall continue as to any Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in the capacity that made it an Indemnitee, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee. Subject to the
foregoing sentence, the provisions of this Section 11 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other persons. While any provision of this Section 11 may be amended, modified
or repealed, no such amendment, modification or repeal shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified or advanced expenses by the Company, nor the obligations of the Company to
indemnify or advance expenses to any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to
matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. 

12. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE
(EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULES). 
 13.
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application thereof shall not
be affected and shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 14. Creditors. None of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditors of the Company or by any creditor of the Member. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create any right in any person or entity not a party hereto (other than an assignee
of the Member), and this Agreement shall not be construed in any respect to be a contract in whole or in part for the benefit of any third person. 

15. Amendments. This Agreement may be modified, altered, supplemented or amended pursuant to a written agreement executed and
delivered by the Member. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being the sole member of the Company, has caused this Amended and
