(5)    in the case of the mandatory convertible preferred stock in any Preferred Sale, both the annual cash dividend rate
shall not be greater than 6.25% and the conversion premium shall not be less than 17.5% (giving effect to customary rounding), and such mandatory convertible preferred stock must be convertible within three years and one month of its issuance.

	 	3.2	 The Company has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a valid, binding, and enforceable obligation of the Company, except as the

	 	3.3	 The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to issue and sell the Shares. The Shares being
purchased by the Investor hereunder will, upon issuance and payment therefor pursuant to the terms hereof, be duly authorized, validly issued and fully-paid and non-assessable, and will be owned by the
Investor free of liens, encumbrances and restrictions on transfer other than (a) restrictions on transfer under this Agreement and under applicable state and federal securities laws, (b) restrictions on transfer under the lockup agreement
entered into by the Investor and (c) any liens, encumbrances or restrictions on transfer that are created or imposed by the Investor.

restrictions referred to in Section 4.1(2)(a) below, the Company will cooperate with the Investor and any underwriter(s) to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of the Shares to be sold and not bearing any restrictive Securities Act
legends; and to

considered together with the IPO Price and the number of shares of Common Stock sold in the IPO, does not, as of the date hereof, and will not, as of the applicable effective date, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 


  

	 	3.6	 The Company is not and, after giving effect to the issuance and sale of the Shares, the consummation of the IPO

	 	3.7	 The entry into and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Company, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or
cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party, or (iii) result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to the
Company, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the
Company to perform its obligations hereunder. 


  

	 	3.8	 Assuming the accuracy of the Investors representations and warranties set forth herein, the issuance and sale
of the Shares by the Company to the Investor contemplated herein comply with the requirements of Regulation S and are exempted from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and will not be integrated with the IPO pursuant to applicable
rules and regulations issued under the Securities Act. No directed selling efforts (as defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S) have been made by the Company, any of its affiliates or any person acting on its behalf with respect to any Shares.
















	 	3.9	 Except for any sale of shares of Common Stock to the Sponsor in the IPO, the price of the Brookfield Sale shall
be the same and the other terms and conditions of the Brookfield Sale shall be substantially the same as the Offering. 



4.    Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Investor. 

The Investor hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with the Company and the Placement Agents that:

purchasing for the account or benefit of a U.S. person. 


 (2)    The Investor understands and agrees
on behalf of itself and on behalf of any investor account for which it is purchasing Shares, and each subsequent holder of Shares by its acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any
public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act, that the Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and that (a) if it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise
transfer any of the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (i) to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (ii) pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including but not limited to the exemption provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act, or (iv) to the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, in each of cases (i) through (iv) in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States, and that (b) the Investor will, and each
subsequent holder is required to, notify any subsequent purchaser of the Shares from it of the resale restrictions referred to in (a) above and will provide the Company and the Transfer Agent such certificates and other information as they may
reasonably require to confirm that any transfer by such Investor of any Shares complies with the foregoing restrictions, if applicable. 

(3)    The Investor understands that the Shares, unless sold in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 
 THIS SECURITY WAS ORIGINALLY ISSUED IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM.













 THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT (A) THIS
SECURITY MAY BE OFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ONLY (I) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE
REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, (II) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (IF AVAILABLE), SUBJECT TO THE
ISSUER’S RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THIS CLAUSE (II) TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO IT AND/OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT THAT ANY SUCH
EXEMPTION IS AVAILABLE TO THE HOLDER, (III) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (IV) TO THE ISSUER OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, IN EACH OF CASES (I) THROUGH (IV) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY
APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES, AND (B) THE HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY SUBSEQUENT PURCHASER OF THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE.

 (4)    The Investor represents that by reason of its, or of its management’s, business or financial
experience, the Investor has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. 

(5)    The Investor understands that the Company, the Placement Agents and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of
the representations, acknowledgements and agreements contained herein and agrees that if any of the representations and acknowledgements deemed to have been made by it by its purchase of the Shares is no longer accurate, the Investor shall promptly
notify the Company and the Placement Agents. If the Investor is acquiring Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more QIB investor accounts, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account, and it has full
power to make the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements on behalf of such account. 
 (6)    The
Investor is not a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), an associated person or affiliate of a member of FINRA, or an underwriter of the IPO or a related person of any such underwriter (as those terms are
defined for purposes of FINRA Rule 5110). 













	 	4.2	 The Investor acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and
financial affairs with directors, officers and management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. The Investor has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, the
Company and its management regarding the terms and conditions of this investment. 


  

	 	4.3	 The Investor acknowledges that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Company or the
Placement Agents that would permit an offering of the Shares, or possession or distribution of offering materials in connection with the issue of the Shares (including any filing of a registration statement), in any jurisdiction where action for
that purpose is required. The Investor will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers Shares or has in its possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at
its own expense. 


  

	 	4.4	 The Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and this Agreement constitutes a valid, binding, and enforceable obligation of the Investor, except as the
enforceability of the Agreement may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally. 



 

	 	4.5	 The entry into and performance of this Agreement by the Investor and the consummation by the Investor of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Investor, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment,
acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Investor is a party, or (iii) result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws)
applicable to the Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on
the ability of the Investor to perform its obligations hereunder. 


  

	 	4.6	 The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Investor in
connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with
its purchase of the Shares and has made its own assessment and has satisfied itself concerning the relevant tax and other economic considerations relevant to its investment in the Shares. 














 5.    Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor. 
 6.    Indemnification. Each of the Company and the
Investor (an “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold each other and their directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any losses,

reasonably practicable, allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. The provisions of this section shall not restrict the ability of a party to summarize or describe the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement in the Registration Statement or any registration statements, reports, schedules, forms, prospectuses, proxy statements and other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC (an “SEC Report”) so long as the

defined in Rule 144, (II) file all reports and other materials required to be filed by Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such

restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Shares and to make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) trading days of any such request therefor
from the Investor. In connection therewith, if required by the Transfer Agent, at the Company’s expense, the Company shall promptly 















	 	
cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to and maintained with the Transfer Agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the Transfer Agent that
