WHEREAS, in connection
with the Transaction Closing, the Company desires to issue to Executive, and Executive desires to acquire from the Company, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, at the Closing (as defined herein), an aggregate of 2,775.28 Common Units of the

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration
of the premises and of the respective representations, warranties, covenants and conditions contained herein, the parties hereto, intending
to be legally bound, agree as follows:


 


1.                 
Certain Definitions. Capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth on Exhibit A hereto.


 


2.                 
Issuance of Units.


 


2.1.              
Issuance of Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby issues to Executive at the
Closing, 2,775.28 Class K-2 Common Units (the “Units”). The Units consist of Time-Based Units, as defined below. As
of the date of grant, the Units shall have a Benchmark Amount equal to $32.00 per Unit.


 


2.2.              
Closing; Deliveries.


 


     (a)              
The issuance of the Units shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and signatures effective as of immediately following
the Transaction Closing (which time and place are designated as the “Closing”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, to the extent the Transaction is not consummated, this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio.


 


2.3.              
Right to Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the LLC Agreement or this Agreement, any distributions
(or portions thereof) with respect to any Unit that remains subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 3 (each, a “Forfeitable
Unit”) that would otherwise be distributed to Executive pursuant to Section 10.1 of the LLC Agreement shall be held by the Company
in a segregated interest-bearing account (separate from and not commingled with the general funds of the Company) and shall be invested
in such manner as may be determined by the Board. Any such amount with respect to such a Unit (including any interest or other income
with respect thereto) shall be distributed to Executive when such Unit no longer constitutes a Forfeitable Unit; provided, that
if any such Unit has been forfeited pursuant to Section 3 or otherwise prior to such distribution, then such amount (including any interest
or other income with respect thereto) shall be distributed as determined by the Board pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.1 of the
LLC Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.3 shall not limit any Tax Distributions payable to Executive pursuant to Section

forfeit all Time-Based Units for no consideration on the date of such breach or termination of Employment.

for purposes of determining the number of Common Units that may be included in a Tag-Along Sale (as defined in the LLC Agreement) pursuant
to Section 11.3(a) of the LLC Agreement shall exclude all Forfeitable Units.

6.                 
Representations and Warranties of Executive. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:


 


6.1.               Authorization. Executive has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. This Agreement, when executed and delivered
by Executive, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a)
as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and any other laws of general

any material instrument, judgment, order, writ or decree applicable to Executive, or (ii) any material provision of federal or state statute,
rule or regulation applicable to Executive.


 


6.3.              
Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with Executive in reliance upon Executive’s representation
to the Company, which by Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive hereby confirms, that the Units to be acquired by Executive
will be acquired by investment for Executive’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution
of any part thereof in violation of applicable securities laws, and that Executive has no present intention of selling, granting any participation
in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Executive further represents that, except by the LLC Agreement, Executive
does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations
to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Units.

the Company’s facilities.


 


6.5.              
Restricted Securities. Executive understands that the Units have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities
Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things,
the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Executive’s representations as expressed herein. Executive understands
that the Units are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these
laws, Executive must hold the Units indefinitely unless they are registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such
registration and qualification requirements is available. Executive acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify
the Units for resale except as set forth in the LLC Agreement. Executive further acknowledges that
if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited
to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Units, and requirements relating to the Company which are outside of Executive’s
control, and which the Company is under no obligation and
may not be able to satisfy.


 






    3 


     


    

 


6.6.

and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Units.


 


6.7.              
Legends. Executive understands that the Units and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Units, may bear
one or all of the following legends:


 


     (a)              
Any legend set forth in, or required by, the LLC Agreement.


 


     (b)              
Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Units represented by the
certificate so legended.

Accredited Investor. Executive is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act.


 


6.9.              
No General Solicitation. Neither Executive nor Executive’s agents or partners (if any) has either, directly or indirectly,
including through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in either case in connection
with the offer and sale of the Units.


 


6.10.            
Residence. The principal place of business or residence of Executive is identified in the address of Executive set forth
in Section 8.7.


 


7.                 
Restrictive Covenants.

Executive acknowledges and agrees that he shall remain subject to, and will comply with, all of the restrictive covenants and confidentiality

of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016: (a) Executive 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 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, (b) Executive 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 in a complaint or other
document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal and (c) if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation
by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to his attorney and use the trade secret

under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. For purposes of Section 3 and this Section 7.3, the Board shall determine
