Prior to the Company’s conducting business in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware, the Board shall cause the Company to comply, to the extent procedures are available and those matters are reasonably within the control of the
Board, with all requirements necessary to qualify the Company as a foreign limited liability company in that jurisdiction. At the request of the Board, the Members shall execute, acknowledge, swear to and deliver all certificates and other

business. 
 2.6 Term. The period of existence of the Company (the “Term”) commenced on the Original Filing

 6 








 
partner or joint venturer of any other Party for any purposes other than (if the Company has more than one Member) federal and state income tax purposes, and this Agreement shall not be construed
or interpreted to suggest otherwise. A Member does not have the right to Withdraw from the Company; provided, however, that a Member shall have the power to Withdraw at any time in violation of this Agreement. If a Member exercises such power
in violation of this Agreement, (a) such Member shall be liable to the Company and its Affiliates for all monetary damages suffered by them as a result of such Withdrawal and (b) such Member shall not have any rights under
Section 18-604 of the Delaware LLC Act. In no event shall the Company have the right, through specific performance or otherwise, to prevent a Member from Withdrawing in violation of this Agreement.

be owned by the Company as an entity, and no Member, individually, shall have any ownership of such property. The Company may hold its property in its own name or in the name of a nominee which may be the Board or any of its Affiliates or any
trustee or agent designated by it. 
 ARTICLE 3 

MATTERS RELATING TO MEMBERS 

3.1 Membership Interests. As of the date hereof, Holdings is the sole Member of the Company as reflected in Exhibit A. 

3.2 Creation of Additional Membership Interests. The Board may cause the Company to issue additional Membership Interests in the
Company and additional Persons receiving such additional Membership Interests may be admitted to the Company as Members pursuant to this Section 3.2 with, in each case, Member Approval. The terms of admission or issuance may provide for
the creation of different classes or groups of Members having different rights, powers, and duties. The creation of any new class or group of Membership Interests or Members in accordance with this Section 3.2 may be reflected in an
amendment to this Agreement executed in accordance with Section 11.4 indicating the different rights, powers, and duties thereof. Any such admission is effective only after the new Member has executed and delivered to the Company an
instrument containing the notice address of the new Member and the new Member’s ratification of this Agreement and agreement to be bound by it. 

3.3 Liability to Third Parties; Duties and Obligations. 

(a) Except as may be expressly provided in another separate, written guaranty or other agreement executed by a Member or as required by the
Delaware LLC Act, no Member shall be liable for the Liabilities of the Company, including under a judgment, decree or order of a court, solely by reason of being a Member of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member has
the authority or power to act for or on behalf of or bind the Company or to incur any expenditures on behalf of the Company. 
 (b) The
Company and the Members agree that the rights, duties and obligations of the Members in their capacity as members of the Company are only as set forth in this Agreement and, except to the extent this Agreement provides otherwise, under the Delaware


  
 7 








 
LLC Act. Each Member and its Affiliates may engage, directly or indirectly, without the consent or approval of the other Members or the Company, in the businesses conducted by such Member and its
Affiliates as of the Effective Time and in any other business opportunities, transactions, ventures or other arrangements of any nature or description, independently or with others, including business of a nature which may be competitive with or the
same as or similar to the business of the Company and/or the Partnership, regardless of the geographic location of such business, and without any duty or obligation to account to the other Members or the Company in connection therewith. Nothing
herein is intended to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or other relationship creating fiduciary or quasi-fiduciary duties or similar duties and obligations or subject the Members to joint and several or vicarious liability or to impose
any duty, obligation or liability that would arise therefrom with respect to any or all of the Members or the Company. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Member has any fiduciary duty to the Company or any other Member pursuant to this
Agreement, such duty is hereby eliminated pursuant to Section 18-1101(c) of the Act; provided, however, that the foregoing does not eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Furthermore, to the fullest
extent permitted by Law, the Members agree that the existence of any rights of a Member, or the exercise or forbearance from exercise of any such rights, shall not create any duties or obligations of the Members in their capacities as members of the
Company, nor shall such rights be construed to enlarge or otherwise alter in any manner the duties and obligations of the Members. 
 (c) In
addition to the powers and authorities expressly conferred on the Board by this Agreement, the Board may exercise all such powers of the Company and do all such acts and things as are not restricted by this Agreement, the Delaware LLC Act or other
Law. 
 3.4 Meetings of the Members. A meeting may be called at any time at the request of any Member. Any Member may participate in
a meeting of the Members by means of conference telephone or similar communication equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at
such meeting. 
 3.5 Quorum. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the Members holding more than 50% of the outstanding Membership
Interests will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by the Members. If, at any meeting of the Members there shall be less than a quorum present, a majority of the Members present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without
further notice. The Members present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Members to leave less than a quorum. 

3.6 Action Without a Meeting. Any action that is required to or may be taken at a meeting of the Members may be taken without a meeting
if consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by the holder(s) of the Membership Interests entitled to vote on such matter. Such consents will have the same force and effect as a vote at a meeting duly held. 

3.7 Denial of Appraisal Rights. No Member will have any appraisal rights or dissenters’ rights with respect to any merger,
consolidation, conversion or dissolution of the Company, any sale of assets by the Company or any amendment to this Agreement, the Members’ rights with respect to such matters being limited to those rights, if any, expressly set forth in this
Agreement.

 ARTICLE 4 

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL ACCOUNTS 

4.1 Capital Contributions. 

(a) As the initial or organizational Member of the Company, Holdings made the Capital Contribution set forth on Exhibit A at the time of
the formation of the Company. No Member shall be obligated to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company. 
 (b) The amount of
money and the fair market value (less the amount of any liabilities of the Member assumed by the Company or that are secured by any Property contributed by such Member to the Company) as of the date of contribution of any Property (other than money)
contributed to the Company by a Member in respect of the issuance of a Membership Interest to such Member shall constitute a “Capital Contribution.” Any reference in this Agreement to the Capital Contribution of a Member
shall include any Capital Contribution of its predecessor(s) in interest. 
 4.2 Loans. If the Company does not have sufficient cash
to pay its obligations, any Member that may agree to do so with the consent of the Board may advance all or part of the needed funds for such obligation to or on behalf of the Company. An advance described in this Section 4.2 will
constitute a loan from the Member to the Company, may bear interest at a rate not greater than the rate the Company could obtain from third parties, and will not be a Capital Contribution. 

4.3 Return of Contributions. A Member is not entitled to the return of any part of its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in
respect of its Capital Account or Capital Contributions. An unrepaid Capital Contribution is not a liability of the Company or of any Member. No Member will be required to contribute or to lend any cash or property to the Company to enable the
Company to return any Member’s Capital Contributions. 
 ARTICLE 5 

DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS 

5.1 Distributions. All distributions shall be made to the Members at such times and from time to time as approved by Member Approval.

 5.2 Disregarded Entity. The Company will be an entity disregarded from its owner for federal income tax purposes as long as all of
the Membership Interests in the Company are owned by one Member. Therefore, all of the items of income, gain, loss and expense of the Company shall flow through to the sole Member. 

  
 9 








 ARTICLE 6 

MANAGEMENT 
 6.1
Management. 
 (a) Management of the Partnership. Subject to Article 3 and Section 6.1(c) and (d), all
management powers over the business and affairs of the Company, including the management and control of the Partnership (in the Company’s capacity as general partner of the Partnership), shall be exclusively vested in a Board of Directors
(“Board of Directors” or “Board”) and, subject to the direction of the Board of Directors, the Officers. Each Director shall constitute a “manager” of the Company within the meaning of the
Delaware LLC Act. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Member, by virtue of having the status of a Member, shall have or attempt to exercise or assert any management power over the business and affairs of the Company or

 (a)
To the fullest extent permitted by Law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in this Agreement, each Indemnitee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
joint or several, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, in which any such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of such person’s status as an Indemnitee; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall not
be indemnified and held harmless if there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to this
Section 6.5, the Indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, or in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or
proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above. Any indemnification pursuant to this
Section 6.5 shall be made only out of assets of the Company, it being agreed that a Member shall not be personally liable for such 

  
 17 








 
indemnification and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Company to enable it to effectuate such indemnification. 

(i) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee
who is indemnified pursuant to Section 6.5(a) in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or
proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 6.5. 

(ii) The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware LLC Act, pay or reimburse expenses incurred by an
Indemnitee in connection with the Indemnitee’s appearance as a witness or other participation in a proceeding involving or affecting the Company at a time when the Indemnitee is not a named defendant or respondent in the proceeding. 

(b) The indemnification provided by this Section 6.5 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be
entitled under any agreement, as a matter of Law or otherwise, both as to actions in the Indemnitee’s capacity as an Indemnitee and as to actions in any other capacity, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such
capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the indemnification provided by this Section 6.5 shall be, after any indemnification provided
pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the primary source of indemnification with respect to the matters addressed herein, without regard to other potential sources of indemnification, reimbursement or contribution (subject to applicable express
provisions of any insurance policy to which the Company is a party). 
 (c) The Company shall purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of
the members of the Board of Directors, the Officers and such other Persons as the Board of Directors shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expense that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the
Company’s activities or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Company, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Company will have no obligation to obtain or maintain the insurance contemplated by this Section 6.5(c) if the Board reasonably determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available. 

(d) For purposes of this Section 6.5, the Company shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an
employee benefit plan whenever the performance by the Indemnitee of such Indemnitee’s duties to the Company also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, the Indemnitee to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan;
excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to Law shall constitute “fines” within the meaning of Section 6.5(a); and action taken or omitted by the Indemnitee with respect to an
employee benefit plan in the performance of such Indemnitee’s duties for a purpose reasonably believed by such Indemnitee to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is in,
or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. 

  
 18 








 (e) An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this
Section 6.5 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement. 

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.5 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators
and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. 
 (g) No amendment, modification or repeal of this
Section 6.5 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair either the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company or the obligation of the Company to indemnify any such
Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.5 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, provided such Person became an Indemnitee hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal. 

(h) Any act or omission performed or omitted by an Indemnitee on advice of legal counsel or an independent consultant who has been employed or
retained by the Company shall be presumed to have been performed or omitted in good faith without gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

(i) THE PROVISIONS OF THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 6.5 ARE INTENDED BY THE PARTIES TO
APPLY EVEN IF SUCH PROVISIONS HAVE THE EFFECT OF EXCULPATING THE INDEMNITEE FROM LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH PERSON’S NEGLIGENCE, FAULT OR OTHER CONDUCT. 

6.6 Exculpation. 
 (a)
Subject to any restrictions imposed by Law, no Indemnitee shall be liable, in damages or otherwise, to the Company, any Member or any of their Affiliates for any act or omission performed or omitted by any of them (including any act or omission
performed or omitted by any of them in reliance upon and in accordance with the opinion or advice of experts, including of legal counsel as to matters of Law, of accountants as to matters of accounting, or of investment bankers or appraisers as to
matters of valuation), unless a court of competent jurisdiction has issued a final and non-appealable decision or judgment that such Indemnitee acted in bad faith or was grossly negligent or engaged in willful misconduct or fraud or, in the case of
a criminal matter, acted with the knowledge that such Indemnitee’s conduct was criminal. No Member shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any action taken by any other Member. 

(b) An Indemnitee shall incur no liability in acting in good faith upon any signature or writing believed by such Indemnitee to be genuine,
may rely on a certificate signed 

  
 19 








 
by an executive officer of any Person in order to ascertain any fact with respect to such Person or within such Person’s knowledge, and may rely on an opinion of counsel selected by such
Indemnitee with respect to legal matters. Each Indemnitee may act directly or through such Indemnitee’s agents or attorneys. Each Indemnitee may consult with counsel, appraisers, engineers, accountants and other skilled Persons selected by such
Indemnitee, and shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith in reliance upon the advice of any of such Persons. No Indemnitee shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
responsible officer or employee of such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee’s Affiliate. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.6, no Indemnitee shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any mistake of fact or judgment by
such Indemnitee in conducting the affairs of the Company or otherwise acting in respect of and within the scope of this Agreement. 
 (c)
Except as otherwise provided herein, no Indemnitee shall be liable for the return of the Capital Contributions or Capital Account of any Member, and such return shall be made solely from available assets of the Company, if any, and each Member
hereby waives any and all claims that it may have against such Indemnitee in this regard. 
 (d) The provisions of this Agreement, to the
extent that they expressly restrict or eliminate the duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities of an Indemnitee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such
Indemnitee. In causing the Company to make a determination or take or decline to take any action, unless another express standard is provided for in this Agreement, an Indemnitee shall act in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or
different standards imposed by this Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Delaware LLC Act or any other Law, or in equity. In order for a determination or other action affecting the Company to be in “good faith”
for purposes of this Agreement, an Indemnitee must believe that the determination or other action is in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. 

(e) Subject to its obligations and duties as set forth in this Article 6, the Board of Directors and any committee thereof may exercise
any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through the Company’s Officers or agents, and neither the Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall be
responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such Officer or agent appointed by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof in good faith. 

(f) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.6 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in
any way affect the limitations on liability under this Section 6.6 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 be asserted. 
 6.7 Amendment and Vesting of Rights.
The rights granted or created hereby will be vested in each Person entitled to indemnification hereunder as a bargained-for, contractual condition of such Person’s being or serving or having served as a Director, Officer or representative of
the Company or serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or 

  
 20 








 
in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise and, while this Article 6 may be amended or repealed, no such amendment or repeal will release, terminate or adversely affect the
rights of such Person under this Article 6 with respect to any (a) act taken or the failure to take any act by such Person prior to such amendment or repeal or (b) action, suit or proceeding concerning such act or failure to act
filed after such amendment or repeal. 
 6.8 Severability. If any provision of this Article 6 or the application of any such
provision to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions of this Article 6 and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will not be
affected thereby and, to the fullest extent possible, the court finding such provision invalid, illegal or unenforceable must modify and construe the provision so as to render it valid and enforceable as against all Persons and to give the maximum
possible protection to Persons subject to indemnification hereby within the bounds of validity, legality and enforceability. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Member, Director, Officer or representative of the Company or any
Person who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or in any other comparable position of any Other Enterprise, is entitled under any provision of this Article 6 to indemnification by the Company for some or a
portion of the judgments, amounts paid in settlement, attorneys’ fees, penalties, ERISA excise taxes, fines or other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any such Person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding (including the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such action, suit or proceeding), whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate, but not, however, for all of the total amount thereof, the
Company will nevertheless indemnify such Person for the portion thereof to which such Person is entitled. 
 6.9 Other Business
Ventures. 
 (a) Any Member, Director or Officer shall have the right to engage in, or possess an interest in, other business ventures of
every nature and description, independently or with others, whether or not similar or identical to the businesses engaged in or anticipated to be engaged in by the Company or the Partnership, including business interests and activities in direct
competition with the business and activities of the Company, the Partnership or its subsidiaries, and none of the same shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duty expressed or implied by law or equity to the Company or its subsidiaries
or any Member. Neither the Company, its subsidiaries nor any Member, Director or Officer will have any right by virtue of this Agreement in or to such other business ventures or to the income or profits derived therefrom. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the terms of any other agreement to which a Party may be
subject, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to any Member, Director or Officer. No Member, Director or Officer who acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or other matter
that may be an opportunity for the Company or its subsidiaries shall have any duty to communicate or offer such opportunity to the Company or its subsidiaries, and such Member, Director or Officer shall not be liable to the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, any other Member or any other Person for breach of any fiduciary or other duty by reason of the fact that such Member, Director or Officer pursues or acquires for itself, directs such opportunity


  
 21 








 
to another Person or does not communicate such opportunity or information to the Company or its subsidiaries; provided, however, that such Member, Director or Officer does not engage in
such business or activity as a result of or using confidential or proprietary information provided by or on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries to such Person. 

(c) The Members and their representatives, including the Officers, are not required to devote all of their time or business efforts to the
affairs of the Company, but will devote so much of their time and attention to the Company as is reasonably necessary and advisable to manage the affairs of the Company to the best advantage of the Company. 

(d) The foregoing will not supersede any employment, confidentiality, noncompetition or other specific agreement that may exist between the
Company (or an Affiliate of the Company) and any Member (or an Affiliate of any Member) or Officer. 
 6.10 Resolution of Conflicts of
Interest; Standard of Conduct and Modification of Duties. Any conflicts of interest among the Company, the Partnership, the Members, the Directors, the Officers or any of their Affiliates shall be resolved in accordance with Section 7.9 of
the Partnership Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 7 

TAX MATTERS 
 The sole
Member shall prepare and timely file, on behalf of the Company, all state and local tax returns, if any, required to be filed by the Company. The Company will be an entity disregarded from its owner for federal income tax purposes as long as all of
the Membership Interests in the Company are owned by one Member. 
 ARTICLE 8 

BOOKS, RECORDS, REPORTS, AND BANK ACCOUNTS 

8.1 Maintenance of Books. 

(a) The Board of Directors shall keep or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Company or at such other location approved by the
Board of Directors complete and accurate books and records of the Company, supporting documentation of the transactions with respect to the conduct of the Company’s business and minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors and any other
books and records as may be necessary for the proper conduct of the business of the Company. 
 (b) The books of account of the Company
shall be (i) maintained on the basis of a fiscal year that is the calendar year and (ii) maintained on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. 

8.2 Reports. With respect to each fiscal year, the Board shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and deliver, or cause to be delivered,
to each Member, within 90 days after the end of such fiscal year, a profit and loss statement and a statement of cash flows for such fiscal year, and a balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal year, together with a report thereon of the certified
public accountants of the Company selected by the Board. 

  
 22 








 8.3 Bank Accounts. Funds of the Company shall be deposited in such banks or other

other written instruction. 
 8.4 Fiscal Year. For financial accounting purposes, the fiscal year of the Company will end on
December 31 of each year unless a different year is adopted by the Board. 
 ARTICLE 9 

DISSOLUTION, WINDING-UP AND TERMINATION 

9.1 Dissolution. 
 (a) The
Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following events (each a “Dissolution Event”): 

(i) the joint decision of the Members by unanimous consent and the Board of Directors; 

(ii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Delaware LLC Act; and 

(iii) at any time there are no Members of the Company, unless the Company is continued in accordance with the Delaware LLC Act
or this Agreement. 
 (b) No other event shall cause a dissolution of the Company. 

(c) Upon the occurrence of any event that causes there to be no Members of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the personal
representative of the last remaining Member is hereby authorized to, and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such Member in the Company, agree in writing (i) to continue the
Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute Member of the Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such
Member in the Company. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Bankruptcy of a Member shall not cause such Member
to cease to be a member of the Company and, upon the occurrence of such an event, the Company shall continue without dissolution. 
 9.2
Winding-Up and Termination. 
 (a) On the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Board of Directors shall select one or more Persons to
act as liquidator. The liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Delaware LLC Act. 

  
 23 








 
The costs of winding up shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the
Board of Directors. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows: 
 (i) as promptly as possible after
dissolution and again after final winding up, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and operations through the last calendar day of
the month in which the dissolution occurs or the final winding up is completed, as applicable; 
 (ii) the liquidator shall
discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in winding up) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash
escrow fund for contingent conditional or unmatured liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); 

(iii) the liquidator may sell any or all Company property (except cash), including to Members; and 

(iv) all remaining assets of the Company (including cash) shall be distributed to the Members. 

(b) The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.2 constitutes a complete
return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member of its Membership Interest and its share of all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the
meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Delaware LLC Act. No Member shall be required to make any Capital Contribution to the Company to enable the Company to make the distributions described in this Section 9.2. To the extent that a
Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds. 
 (c) On completion of such final
distribution, the liquidator shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the existence of the Company. Upon the filing of such certificate
of cancellation, the existence of the Company shall terminate (and the Term shall end), except as may be otherwise provided by Law. 

ARTICLE 10 
 TRANSFERS

 10.1 Permitted Transfers. Subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in Section 10.2, a Member may at
any time Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest (a “Permitted Transfer”). 
 10.2 Conditions to
Permitted Transfers. A Transfer shall not be treated as a Permitted Transfer under Section 10.1 unless and until the following conditions are satisfied: 

(a) The transferor and transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate such Transfer and to confirm the agreement of the transferee to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. 

  
 24 








 (b) Such Transfer will be exempt from all applicable registration requirements and will not
violate any Laws regulating the Transfer of securities. 
 (c) Such Transfer will not cause the Company to be deemed to be an
“investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 (d) The transferor and its transferee shall pay, or
reimburse the Company for, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Transfer and the admission of the transferee as a Member, including the legal fees, if any, incurred in connection with any legal opinion(s)
rendered pursuant to Section 10.2. 
 10.3 Prohibited Transfers. 

(a) Any purported Transfer of a Membership Interest that is not a Permitted Transfer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be null and
void and of no force or effect whatever; provided, however, that, if the Company is required to recognize a Transfer that is not a Permitted Transfer, the rights with respect to the Transferred Membership Interest shall be strictly limited to
the transferor’s rights to allocations and distributions as provided by this Agreement with respect to the Transferred Membership Interest, which allocations and distributions may be applied (without limiting any other legal or equitable rights
of the Company) to satisfy any debts, obligations, or Liabilities for damages that the transferor or transferee of such Membership Interest may have to the Company. 

(b) In the case of a Transfer or attempted Transfer of a Membership Interest that is not a Permitted Transfer, the parties engaging or
attempting to engage in such Transfer shall be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from all Liability and damages that the Company or any of such indemnified Members may incur (including incremental tax
liabilities, lawyers’ fees and expenses) as a result of such Transfer or attempted Transfer and efforts to enforce the indemnity granted hereby. 

10.4 Rights of Unadmitted Assignees. A Person who acquires a Membership Interest but who is not admitted as a substituted Member
pursuant to Section 10.5 shall be entitled only to allocations and distributions with respect to such Membership Interest in accordance with this Agreement, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, shall have no right to any
information or accounting of the affairs of the Company, shall not be entitled to inspect the books or records of the Company, and shall not have any of the rights of a Member under the Delaware LLC Act or this Agreement. 

10.5 Admission of Substituted Members. Subject to the other provisions of this Article 10, a transferee of a Membership Interest
may be admitted to the Company as a substituted Member only upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 10.5. 

(a) The Membership Interest with respect to which the transferee is being admitted was acquired by means of a Permitted Transfer; and 

  
 25 








 (b) The transferee of a Membership Interest (other than, with respect to clauses (i) and
(ii) below, a transferee that was a Member prior to the Transfer) shall, by written instrument, (i) accept and adopt the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including this Article 10 and (ii) assume the obligations of the
transferor Member under this Agreement with respect to the Transferred Membership Interest. The transferor Member shall be released from all such assumed obligations except (x) those obligations or Liabilities of the transferor Member arising
out of a breach of this Agreement by the transferor Member and (y) in the case of a Transfer to any Person other than a Member, those obligations or Liabilities of the transferor Member based on events occurring, arising, or maturing prior to
the date of Transfer. 
 ARTICLE 11 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

11.1 Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests or consents provided for or
permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered to the recipient in person, by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid or mail or by facsimile or other electronic transmission and a notice, request or
consent given under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the Person to receive it; provided, however, that a facsimile or other electronic transmission that is transmitted after the normal business hours of the recipient shall be deemed
effective on the next Business Day. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the addresses set forth on Exhibit A, or to such other address given for that Member as that Member may specify by notice
to the Company and each other Member. Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Organizational Certificate or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated
therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. 
 11.2 Entire Agreement; Superseding Effect. This Agreement
together with Exhibits hereto, shall constitute the entire agreement of the Members and their respective Affiliates relating to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior contracts or agreements with respect to such subject matter,
whether oral or written. 
 11.3 Effect of Waiver or Consent. Except as provided in this Agreement, a waiver or consent, express or
implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or
any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Except as provided in this Agreement, failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company,
irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has run. 

11.4 Amendment. Subject to Section 3.2, this Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument executed by all Members.

 11.5 Binding Effect. This Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns. 

  
 26 








 11.6 Governing Law. This agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principles of conflicts of law. 
 11.7 Jurisdiction. Any and all claims
arising out of, in connection with or in relation to (i) the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement, or (ii) any relationship before, at the time of entering into, during the term of, or upon or after expiration or
termination of this Agreement, between the Parties hereto, shall be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware. Each Party hereto unconditionally and irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court over any
claims and waives any objection that such party may have to the laying of venue of any claims in any such court. 
 11.8 Further
Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions. 
 11.9 Offset. Whenever the Company is to pay any
sum to any Member, any amounts that a Member owes the Company may be deducted from that sum before payment. 
 11.10 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.
