	 	7.	CCC Representations and Warranties. CCC represents and warrants to each of the other parties hereto that as of the date hereof: 


(a) CCC is an insurance company, duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of

 (b) CCC has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations hereunder, and to purchase, acquire and accept delivery of the CCC Purchaser Shares.

 (c) This Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed by CCC and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of CCC, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by CCC does not and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to
which CCC is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which CCC is subject. 
 (d) The CCC Purchaser Shares to
be acquired by the CCC are for its own account and are not being acquired with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the 1933 Act, or any applicable state securities laws.

the 1934 Act, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any applicable state securities laws.

advisers the suitability of its investment in the CCC Purchaser Shares. 

  
 -4-









 (g) CCC is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the CCC
Purchaser Shares for an indefinite period of time because the CCC Purchaser Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. CCC: (i) understands and acknowledges that the CCC Purchaser Shares being issued to CCC have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state, nor under the laws of any other country and
(ii) recognizes that no public agency has passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of any information provided to CCC or the fairness of the terms of its investment in the CCC Purchaser Shares. 

(h) CCC has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of
the CCC Purchaser Shares and has had full access to such other information concerning the Company as has been requested. 
 (i) CCC became aware of the offering of the CCC Purchaser Shares other than by means of general advertising or general solicitation. 

(j) CCC is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined under the 1933 Act and
Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as amended by Section 413 of the Private Fund Investment Advisers Registration Act of 2010 and any applicable rules or regulations or interpretations thereof promulgated by the SEC or its staff

 (k) CCC acknowledges that the certificates for the CCC Purchaser Shares will contain a legend substantially as
follows: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
“ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS. 
 THE COMPANY MAY REQUEST A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH OPINION AND COUNSEL, WHICH
MAY BE IN-HOUSE COUNSEL, SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY) TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH AN OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE.” 

Subject to any lock-up or other similar agreement that may apply to the CCC Purchaser Shares, the requirement that the CCC Purchaser
Shares contain the legend set forth in clause (j) above shall cease and terminate upon the earlier of (i) when such shares are transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (ii) when such securities are transferred in any
other transaction if the transferor delivers to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel, which may be in-house counsel, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to


  
 -5-









 
the effect that such legend is no longer necessary in order to protect the Company against a violation by it of the 1933 Act upon any sale or other disposition of such securities without
registration thereunder. Upon the consummation of an event described in (i) or (ii) above, the Company, upon surrender of certificates containing such legend, shall, at its own expense, deliver to the holder of any such securities as to
which the requirement for such legend shall have terminated, one or more new certificates evidencing such securities not bearing such legend. 
 (l) CCC holds all rights, title and interests to the Class C Interests, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances, as of the date hereof.

standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own its properties and carry on its business as presently conducted. 
 (b) LSGC Holdings has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform all of its obligations hereunder. 

(c) This Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed by LSGC Holdings and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of LSGC Holdings, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by LSGC Holdings does not and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract
or instrument to which LSGC Holdings is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which LSGC Holdings is subject. 
 (d) LSGC Holdings holds all rights, title and interests to the LSGC Holdings Common Stock, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances (except as set forth in the Letter Agreement or the LLC Agreement),
as of the date hereof.
