(a) Subject to adjustment as provided in this Article II, to the provisions of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Agreements and the Issuer
Certificate of Incorporation and to the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, each Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner shall be entitled on any Quarterly Exchange Date to surrender Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units held by such Blackstone
Holdings Limited Partner to the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships in exchange for the delivery by the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of such number of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units
surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate (such exchange, an “Exchange”); provided that any such exchange is for a minimum of the lesser of 1,000 Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units or all of the vested Blackstone
Holdings Partnership Units held by such Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner. 
 (b) On the date Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units are
surrendered for exchange, all rights of the exchanging Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner as holder of such Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units shall cease, and such exchanging Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner shall be treated for all purposes
as having become the Record Holder (as defined in the Issuer Certificate of Incorporation) of such shares of Common Stock. 
 (c) For the
avoidance of doubt, any exchange of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units shall be subject to the provisions of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Agreements, including without limitation the provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.03 and 8.04. 

SECTION 2.2. Exchange Procedures. (a) A Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner may exercise the right to exchange Blackstone Holdings
Partnership Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) above by providing a written notice of exchange at least sixty (60) days prior to the applicable Quarterly Exchange Date to each of the Blackstone Holdings General Partners substantially in the
form of Exhibit A hereto, duly executed by such holder or such holder’s duly authorized attorney in respect of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units to be exchanged, in each case delivered during normal business hours at the

 4 







 (b) As promptly as practicable following the surrender for exchange of Blackstone Holdings
Partnership Units in the manner provided in this Article II, the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships shall deliver or cause to be delivered at the principal executive offices of the Issuer or at the office of the Transfer Agent the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exchange, issued in the name of such exchanging Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner. 
 (c) The Blackstone
Holdings Partnerships may adopt reasonable procedures for the implementation of the exchange provisions set forth in this Article II, including, without limitation, procedures for the giving of notice of an election for exchange. 

SECTION 2.3. Blackout Periods and Ownership Restrictions. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner shall not be entitled to exchange Blackstone Holdings
Partnership Units, and the Issuer and the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships shall have the right to refuse to honor any request for exchange of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units, (i) at any time or during any period if the Issuer or the
Blackstone Holdings Partnerships shall determine, based on the advice of counsel (which may be inside counsel), that there may be material non-public information that may affect the trading price per share of
Common Stock at such time or during such period or (ii) if such exchange would be prohibited under applicable law or regulation. 

SECTION 2.4. Splits, Distributions and Reclassifications. 

(a) The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (1) any subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification,
recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the shares of Common
Stock; or (2) any subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the shares of Common Stock that is not accompanied by
an identical subdivision or combination of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units. In the event of a reclassification or other similar transaction as a result of which the shares of Common Stock are converted into another security, then a
Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner shall be entitled to receive upon exchange the amount of such security that such Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner would have received if such exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of
such reclassification or other similar transaction. Except as may be required in the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustments in respect of distributions shall be made upon the exchange of any Blackstone Holdings Partnership Unit. 

  
 5 







 SECTION 2.5. Shares of Common Stock to be Issued. 

(a) The Issuer covenants that if any shares of Common Stock require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any U.S.
federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock may be issued upon exchange pursuant to this Article II, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shares of Common Stock to be duly registered or approved, as the case
may be. The Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to list the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered upon exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the
outstanding shares of Common Stock may be listed or traded at the time of such delivery. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Issuer or the Blackstone Holdings Partnership from satisfying their obligations in respect of the
exchange of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units by delivery of shares of Common Stock which are held in the treasury of the Issuer or the Blackstone Holdings Partnership or any of their subsidiaries. 

SECTION 2.6. Taxes. 
 (a)
The delivery of shares of Common Stock upon exchange of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units shall be made without charge to the Blackstone Holdings Limited Partners for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance. 

SECTION 2.7. Restrictions. 

(a) The provisions of Sections 8.02, 8.03 (other than paragraphs (a), (b) and (d)), 8.04 and 8.06 of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership
Agreements shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any shares of Common Stock issued upon exchange of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units; and the provisions of paragraphs (b) and (d) of Section 8.03 of the Blackstone Holdings
Partnership Agreements shall permit Transfers of Common Stock issued upon exchange of Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units to the same extent as Exchange Transactions (as defined in the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Agreements) with respect to
Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units may be permitted under such provisions. In each case, the provisions of Sections 8.03 and 8.04 of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Agreements shall apply in the aggregate to Blackstone Holdings Partnership
Units and shares of Common Stock received in exchange for Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units. 
 SECTION 2.8. Subsequent
Offerings. 
 (a) The Issuer may from time to time provide the opportunity for Blackstone Holdings Limited Partners to sell their
Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units to the Issuer, the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships or any of their subsidiaries (a “Sale Transaction”); provided that no Sale Transaction shall occur unless the Issuer cancels the nearest
Quarterly Exchange Date scheduled to occur in the same fiscal year of the Issuer as such Sale Transaction. A Blackstone Limited Partner selling Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units in connection with a Sale Transaction must provide notice to Issuer
at least thirty (30) days prior to the cash settlement of such Sale Transaction in respect of the Blackstone Holdings Partnership Units to be sold, in each case delivered during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the
Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, the total aggregate number of Quarterly Exchange Dates and Sale Transactions occurring during any fiscal year of the Issuer shall not exceed four (4).

SECTION 3.8. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in

 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships may
cause any Blackstone Holdings Partnership to bring, on behalf of the Issuer or such Blackstone Holdings Partnership or on behalf of one or more Blackstone Holdings Limited Partners, an action or special proceeding in any court of competent
jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Blackstone Holdings
Limited Partner (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 3.8 to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of
this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate, and (iii) irrevocably appoints the Blackstone Holdings Partnerships as such Blackstone Holdings Limited Partner’s agents for service of process in

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to
comply with the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act (10 Del. C. § 5701 et seq.) (the “Delaware Arbitration Act”). If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section 3.8, including any rules of the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be invalid or unenforceable under the Delaware Arbitration Act, or other applicable law, such invalidity shall
not invalidate all of this Section 3.8. In that case, this Section 3.8 shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Delaware Arbitration Act or other
applicable law, and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provision. 

SECTION 3.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more
counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies of executed
counterparts transmitted by telecopy or other electronic transmission service shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Section 3.9. 

  
 9

particular Blackstone Holdings Partnership or a Blackstone Holdings General Partner, this Agreement shall be treated as part of the relevant Blackstone Holdings Partnership Agreement as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

no party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority.
