THIS CLASS A COMMON UNIT PURCHASE AND EXCHANGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of
                    , by and between CDW Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and
                             (“Investor”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Section 12 hereof. 
 [WHEREAS, Investor is the
holder of certain shares of common stock of CDW, as set forth on Schedule A-1 attached hereto (the “Exchange Shares”); 

WHEREAS, Investor desires to exchange the Exchange Shares for Class A Common Units of the Company; 

WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to effect an exchange of the Exchange Shares for Class A Common Units, and, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the LLC Agreement, Investor has agreed to exchange the Exchange Shares for such Class A Common Units; and 

WHEREAS, Investor also desires to purchase additional Class A Common Units of the Company for cash, and the Company
has agreed to sell such additional Class A Common Units to Investor.] 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of
the premises and the mutual promises herein made, and in consideration of the representations, warranties, and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. [Exchange of Class A Common Units. 

(a) The Company has authorized the issuance to Investor, in exchange for the Exchange Shares, the number of Class A
Common Units of the Company indicated in the column labeled “Number of Exchanged Units” on Schedule A-1 hereto, and upon surrender by the Investor of the Exchange Shares (and the certificate(s), if any, representing such Exchange Shares
accompanied by duly executed stock powers) free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, hereby issues to Investor the number of Class A Common Units of the Company indicated in the column labeled “Number of Exchanged Units” on
Schedule A-1 hereto pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s 2007 Incentive Equity Plan (the “Plan”). The Class A Common Units acquired by the Investor in exchange for the Exchange Shares pursuant to this
Section 1(a) shall constitute “Exchanged Units.” 







 (b) Without in any way limiting the representations and warranties contained
herein, each of the parties hereto intends that the exchange transaction contemplated by Section 1(a) qualify as part of an exchange of property for an interest in a partnership under Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of

hereby sells and issues to Investor, the number of Class A Common Units of the Company indicated on Schedule A-2 hereto at a price per Class A Common Unit of $         for an aggregate

Units” and together with the Exchanged Units, the “Units.” 
 (b) Payment of the Purchase
Price shall be made on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”) by means of any combination of a check or wire transfer of immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Purchase Price. The sale and issuance of the Purchased
Units is conditioned on the receipt in full of the Purchase Price by the Company on the Closing Date.]

(a) Organization. The Company is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of
the State of Delaware. 
 (b) Authorization; No Breach. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement have been duly authorized by the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions provided for herein will not result in the breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or
constitute a default under, or conflict with, or cause any acceleration of any other obligation of the Company. 

(c) Capital of the Company. As of the date hereof, the outstanding equity interests of the Company consist of
             Class A Common Units, including the Units issued pursuant to this Agreement, and             
Class B Common Units of the Company. The Company is not subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any of its equity interests or any warrants, options or other rights to acquire its equity
interests, except pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the Unitholders Agreement, the Registration Agreement, this Agreement and any Class A Common Unit Purchase and Exchange Agreement, Class A Common Unit Purchase Agreement, Class A Common
Unit Exchange Agreement, Class B Common Unit Grant Agreement or Deferred Unit Agreement executed by the Company on the date hereof. All of the Company’s outstanding Common Units, including the Units issued hereunder, are validly issued.

 5. Investor’s Representations and Warranties. In connection with the exchange of the Exchange
Shares for the Exchanged Units and the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units hereunder, Investor hereby represents and warrants to the Company that: 

(a) Investor’s Investment Representations. Investor hereby represents that he, she or it is acquiring the
Units to be acquired by him, her or it hereunder for his, her or its own account with the present intention of holding such securities for investment purposes and that he, she or it has no intention of selling such securities in a public
distribution in violation of the federal securities laws or any applicable state or foreign securities laws. Investor acknowledges that the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state or foreign securities laws and
that the Units will be issued to Investor in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state and foreign statutes and in reliance on Investor’s representations and agreements contained herein
and in the LLC Agreement. 
 (b) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by Investor of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, do not and will not (with or without the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both) result in a violation or breach of,

  

 3 








 
conflict with, cause increased liability or fees, or require approval, consent or authorization under (i) any Legal Requirements applicable to Investor or (ii) any contract to which
Investor is a party or by which Investor or any of its properties or assets may be bound or affected.

Other Representations and Warranties of Investor. Investor hereby further represents and warrants to the Company that: 

(i) Investor is an officer or employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries;

issued hereunder, in connection with and as a part of the compensation and incentive arrangements between the Company and Investor; 

(iii) Investor has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of the Units to be acquired by him, her or it hereunder and has had full access to such other information concerning the Company (including access to the Company’s Certificate of Formation, the LLC Agreement and an Offering Summary
(including exhibits thereto)) as Investor may have requested in making his, her or its decision to invest in the Units being issued hereunder; 

(iv) Investor is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act
and/or has, by reason of his or her business and financial experience and the business and financial experience of those retained by him or her such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of holding the Units such that Investor is sophisticated as contemplated by Rule 506(b)(2)(ii) under the Securities Act; 

(v) Investor is able to bear the economic risk and lack of liquidity of an investment in the Company and
is able to bear the risk of loss of his, her or its entire investment in the Company, and Investor fully understands and agrees that he, she or it may have to bear the economic risk of his, her or its purchase for an indefinite period of time
because, among other reasons, the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state or foreign nation and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of certain states or foreign nations or unless an exemption from such registration is available; 

(vi) Investor acknowledges that the Units are subject to the restrictions contained in the LLC Agreement,
and Investor has received and reviewed a copy of the LLC Agreement; 
 (vii) Investor will not
sell or otherwise transfer Common Units without registration under the Securities Act (and any applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws) or an exemption therefrom, and provided there exists such a registration or exemption, any transfer
of Common Units by Investor or subsequent holders of Common Units will be in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and the LLC Agreement;

 (viii) Investor acknowledges that any certificate
representing Common Units shall include such legend(s) as the Company determine are necessary or advisable; 

(ix) Investor has all requisite legal capacity and authority and all material authorizations necessary to
carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the LLC Agreement; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the LLC Agreement and all other agreements contemplated hereby and thereby to which Investor is a party
and the exchange of the Exchange Shares for the Exchanged Units and the purchase of the Purchased Units hereunder have been duly authorized by Investor; 

(x) Investor has relied on the advice of, or has consulted with, only his, her or its own legal, financial
and tax advisors and the determination of Investor to acquire the Units pursuant to this Agreement has been made by Investor independent of any statements or opinions as to the advisability of such acquisition or as to the properties, business,
prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Person (including all Persons acquiring Common Units on the date hereof) or by any agent or employee of such Person and independent of the
fact that any other Person has decided to become a unitholder of the Company; 
 (xi) Investor is
not acquiring the Units as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, internet publication or similar media or broadcast over television, radio or the internet or
presented at any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a Person not previously known to Investor in connection with investments in securities generally; 

(xii) Investor is a resident of the state of
                    ; 

(xiii) Investor acknowledges that neither the issuance of the Units to Investor nor any provision
contained in this Agreement or the LLC Agreement shall entitle Investor to remain in the employment of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries or affect the right of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate Investor’s
employment at any time; and 
 (xiv) Investor acknowledges that, except as required by applicable
law, the Company shall have no duty or obligation to disclose to Investor, and Investor shall have no right to be advised of, any material information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 7. Restrictions on Transfers. 

(a) Transfer of Securities. No holder of Class A Common Units (other than the Institutional Investors or the
Company (to which the restrictions on Transfer in this Section 7 shall not apply)) shall Transfer any interest in Class A Common Units without the prior written consent of the Institutional Investors except Transfers (i) to a
Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 7(b) hereof, (ii) in connection with a Sale of the Company or in connection with a Section 351 Transaction, (iii) in a Public Sale (following an IPO) or (iv) to the
Company or the Institutional Investors in connection with the exercise of any repurchase right vested in the Company or the Institutional Investors. 

(b) Permitted Transfers. The restrictions set forth in Section 7(a) shall not apply to any Transfer of
Class A Common Units by Investor (i) in the event of Investor’s death, pursuant to will or applicable laws of descent or distribution, (ii) to such Person’s legal guardian (in case of any mental incapacity) or (iii) to
or among his or her Family Group; provided that the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to be applicable to the Class A Common Units after any Transfer pursuant to this Section 7(b). At least 15 days prior (other
than in the case of Transfers pursuant clauses (i) or (ii) above, in which case as promptly as practical following such Transfer) to the Transfer of Class A Common Units pursuant to this Section 7(b), the Transferee(s)
will deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice shall disclose in reasonable detail the identity of such Transferee. Any Transferee of Class A Common Units pursuant to a Transfer in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7(b) is herein referred to as a “Permitted Transferee.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement or the LLC Agreement by (i) making one or more
Transfers to one or more Permitted Transferees and then disposing of all or any portion of such party’s interest in any such Permitted Transferee or (ii) Transferring the securities of any entity holding (directly or indirectly)
Class A Common Units and (B) if the Board determines that the Transfer of Class A Common Units to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to this Section 7(b) would have an adverse effect on the Company, including by causing the
Company to become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Board may prohibit any such Transfer pursuant to this Section 7(b). 

(c) Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in this Section 7 shall continue with
respect to each Class A Common Unit until the earlier to occur of an IPO or a Sale of the Company. 
 8.
Community Property. If, as of the date hereof, Investor is lawfully married and Investor’s address or the permanent residence of Investor’s spouse is located in a community property jurisdiction, Investor’s spouse shall execute
and deliver to the Company on the Closing Date the Consent in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. 

9. Additional Transfer Restrictions. 

(a) Restrictive Legend. Any certificates representing the Class A Common Units shall bear the following
legend: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, CERTAIN
REPURCHASE PROVISIONS, AND CERTAIN OTHER 
  

 6 








 
AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN A CLASS A COMMON UNIT PURCHASE AND EXCHANGE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND INVESTOR DATED AS OF
                    , A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF AT THE COMPANY’S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS WITHOUT
CHARGE.” 
 (b) Opinion of Counsel. No holder of Class A Common Units may Transfer any
Class A Common Units (except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act) without first delivering to the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Company that registration under the
Securities Act or any applicable state securities law is not required in connection with such transfer. 
 (c)
Holdback. In connection with an IPO, the holders of Class A Common Units shall enter into any holdback, lockup or similar agreement requested by the underwriters managing such IPO; provided, however, that no such holder shall be required
to enter into an agreement that is more restrictive than that of any other holder. 
 (d) Transfer of
Class A Common Units. Prior to the Transfer of any Class A Common Units (other than pursuant to a Public Sale or a Sale of the Company or in a Section 351 Transaction) to any Person, the Transferring holder of Class A Common
Units subject to this Agreement shall cause the prospective Transferee to be bound by this Agreement and to execute and deliver to the Company and the other unitholders of the Company a counterpart of or joinder to the LLC Agreement as a condition
to the effectiveness of such Transfer. Upon the execution and delivery of such counterpart or joinder by such Person, subject to the requirements of the LLC Agreement, such Person’s acquired Class A Common Units shall be “Class A
Common Units” under this Agreement. 
 10. Repurchase Option. 

(a) The Class A Common Units (whether held by Investor or one or more of Investor’s Transferees, other than the
Company and the Investors) will be subject to repurchase, in each case by the Company and the Institutional Investors pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10 (the “Repurchase Option”).

 (b) In the event of (i) a termination of Investor’s employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries
for any reason, (ii) the violation by Investor of any agreement between Investor and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality or protection of trade secrets (or similar provision
regarding intellectual property) (collectively, “Restrictive Covenants”) or (iii) Investor becoming employed by, performing services for, or otherwise becoming associated with (as an employee, officer, director, manager,
partner or consultant or member, stockholder or investor owning more than a 2% interest or other similar role) a Competitor (as defined below) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, first the Company and then the Institutional Investors shall
have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase all or any portion of the Class A Common Units. The Company hereby agrees to consider reasonably and promptly any request by Investor for a good faith determination of the application of the
“Restrictive Covenants” set forth above to specific proposed activities of Investor and to be bound by such determination with respect to such proposed activities. 

 

 7 








 (c) The price per Class A Common Unit to be paid shall be as follows:
(1) in the case of a termination by the Company for Cause or the violation of any Restrictive Covenant, the lesser of (A) the Fair Market Value of such Class A Common Unit as of the date of repurchase and (B) the Original Cost of
such Class A Common Unit; and (2) in the case of a termination of Investor’s employment for any other reason, the Fair Market Value of such Class A Common Unit as of the date of repurchase; provided, however, if a holder of
Class A Common Units receives a repurchase price per Class A Common Unit equal to the Fair Market Value thereof pursuant to this clause (2) but Investor subsequently violates any Restrictive Covenant applicable to him or her, then the
holder of such Class A Common Units shall immediately remit a cash payment to the Company equal to (x) the positive difference, if applicable, between the Fair Market Value received by such holder per each such Class A Common Unit and
the corresponding Original Cost for each such Class A Common Unit multiplied by (y) the number of Class A Common Units with respect to which the holder of Class A Common Units received Fair Market Value pursuant to this
Section 10(c); provided further, however, that any obligation arising under the foregoing proviso may be offset against any other amounts due to such holder by the Company under any promissory note received by the Investor in
consideration of the repurchase of such Class A Common Units. 
 (d) The Company may elect to repurchase
all or any portion of the Class A Common Units (the “Available Common Units”) by delivery of written notice (a “Company Repurchase Notice”) to Investor (and any other holders of Class A Common Units)
within 90 days after (i) Investor’s Separation Date or (ii) the date on which the Company first became aware of an event described in Section 10(b)(ii) or 10(b)(iii) above, as applicable (the “Repurchase Notice
Period”). The Company Repurchase Notice shall set forth the number of Class A Common Units to be acquired and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. 

(e) If for any reason the Company does not elect to purchase all of the Available Common Units, then the Institutional
Investors shall be entitled to repurchase all or any portion of the Available Common Units that were not repurchased by the Company pursuant to Section 10(d) above (the “Remaining Common Units”). As soon as practicable
after the Company has determined that it will not purchase all of the Available Common Units, but in any event within 60 days after the beginning of the Repurchase Notice Period corresponding to such Available Common Units, the Company shall give
written notice (the “Available Units Notice”) to each Institutional Investor setting forth the number of Remaining Common Units. The Institutional Investors may elect to purchase all or any portion of the Remaining Common Units by
giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Available Units Notice has been delivered to the Institutional Investors by the Company (but no later than the end of the Repurchase Notice Period if no Available Units Notice is
delivered). If the Institutional Investors elect to purchase an aggregate amount of Remaining Common Units in excess of the amount of Remaining Common Units specified in the Available Units Notice, then the Remaining Common Units shall be allocated
among the Institutional Investors on a pro rata basis according to the number of Class A Common Units owned by each Institutional Investor on the date of the Available Units Notice. Any Institutional Investor may condition its election to
purchase such Remaining Common Units on the election of one or more other Institutional 
  

 8 








 
Investors to purchase Remaining Common Units. As soon as practicable, and in any event within 10 days after the expiration of the 30-day period beginning on the date the Available Units Notice is
delivered to the Institutional Investors pursuant to this Section 10(e) (but no later than the end of the Repurchase Notice Period if no Available Units Notice is delivered), the Company shall deliver a further Repurchase Notice (the
“Investor Repurchase Notice”) to the holders of such Remaining Common Units setting forth the number of Remaining Common Units to be acquired and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. At the time the Company
delivers the Investor Repurchase Notice to the holders of such Remaining Common Units, the Company shall also deliver written notice to each Institutional Investor setting forth the number of Class A Common Units such Institutional Investor is
entitled to purchase and the time and place of the closing of the transaction. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all repurchases of Class A Common Units by the Company (including pursuant to Section 10(k) below) shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the Act, as amended, or any
successor statute and in the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ debt and equity financing agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit the repurchase of Common Units hereunder which the Company is otherwise entitled to make, the time periods
provided in this Section 10 shall be suspended, and the Company may make such repurchases at the applicable purchase price therefor, as soon as it is permitted to do so under such restrictions. 

(g) Upon delivery of the full consideration for the Class A Common Units at the closing of a repurchase pursuant to
this Section 10 (including delivery of any subordinated promissory note pursuant to Section 10(i)), the holder of such Class A Common Units from whom such securities are to be purchased shall cease to have any rights as
a holder of such securities, and such securities shall be deemed purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof and the purchaser thereof shall be deemed the owner (of record and beneficially) and holder(s) of such securities, whether
or not the certificate representing such Class A Common Units has been delivered as required by this Agreement. 

(h) Any election by the Company or the Institutional Investors (or any of their designees) to purchase Class A
Common Units pursuant to this Section 10 shall be revocable by such Person (with respect to all or any portion of the Class A Common Units elected to be purchased) at any time prior to the closing of such purchase, without any
liability whatsoever to such Person in respect of the rights and obligations in this Section 10. 

(i) If the Company elects to purchase all or any portion of such Class A Common Units hereunder, then, within 150
days following the Separation Date, the Company shall pay for such Class A Common Units, at the Company’s option, (i) only in the event the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ debt financing agreements restrict the Company from
repurchasing such Class A Common Units, with a subordinated promissory note of the Company, which subordinated promissory note shall (x) bear interest at the prime rate (as published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal, electronic
edition) (compounded calendar quarterly and which shall be payable annually in cash unless otherwise prohibited), (y) have all principal payments due promptly following such time as the Company’s debt financing agreements permit the
Company to make such repurchase in cash (but in no event later than the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of such promissory note) and prior to the 

 

 9 








 
payment of any dividends or other distributions on any of the Company’s equity securities, and (z) be subordinated on terms and conditions satisfactory to the holders of the
Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ indebtedness for borrowed money (but only to the extent required by the terms of such indebtedness), (ii) by certified check or wire transfer of funds, (iii) by delivery of a number of shares of
common stock of VH Holdings having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate repurchase price for such Class A Common Units (the “Repurchase Shares”); provided that, in the event any Repurchase Shares are issued, promptly
following the closing of the repurchase transaction, the Company shall direct VH Holdings and VH Holdings shall accordingly redeem, and the holder of such Repurchase Shares shall sell to VH Holdings, all of the Repurchase Shares for an aggregate
amount equal to the aggregate repurchase price for the Class A Common Units (or the portion thereof previously assigned to the Repurchase Shares), which amount shall be paid in cash unless the conditions of clause (i) of this
Section 10(i) shall have been met, in which case, such amount may be paid through the issuance of a subordinated promissory note of VH Holdings containing and subject to the same terms as provided in clause (i) of this
Section 10(i), or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. If an Institutional Investor elects to purchase all or any portion of the Remaining Common Units hereunder, such Institutional Investor shall pay for such Class A Common
Units by certified check or wire transfer of funds. 
 (j) The provisions of this Section 10 will
terminate with respect to all Class A Common Units upon the consummation of a Sale of the Company or other transaction that reduces the Institutional Investors’ Class A Common Units to less than 10% of their Class A Common Units
acquired on the date hereof; provided that the Company’s and the Institutional Investor’s rights to repurchase Class A Common Units as a result of Investor’s resignation shall terminate upon an IPO. 

11. Sale of the Company. 

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 11, if the Institutional Investors (so long as the Institutional
Investors collectively continue to hold at least 51% of the outstanding Class A Common Units) (the “Approving Holders”) approve a Sale of the Company (and, in the case of any sale or other company transaction which requires the
approval of the managers of a Delaware manager-managed limited liability company pursuant to applicable Delaware law, the Board shall have approved such Sale of the Company) (the “Approved Sale”), and the Institutional Investors
invoke the provisions of this Section 11 by written notice to the holders of Class A Common Units, the holders of Class A Common Units shall vote for (to the extent permitted to vote thereon), consent to and raise no objections
against such Sale of the Company or the process by which such transaction was arranged. If the Sale of the Company is structured as a (i) merger or consolidation, each holder of Class A Common Units or other equity securities or interests
shall waive any dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights in connection with such merger or consolidation or (ii) sale of Company Units or other equity securities or interests, each holder of Class A Common Units or other
equity securities or interests shall sell and surrender all of such holder’s Class A Common Units or other equity securities or interests and rights to acquire Class A Common Units or other equity securities or interests on the terms
and conditions approved by the Approving Holders and the Board (to the extent such approval is required by applicable Delaware law). Each holder of Class A Common Units or other equity securities or interests shall take all necessary or
desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the Sale of the Company, including without limitation, executing a sale 

 

 10 








 
contract pursuant to which each holder of Company Units will: (i) severally (but not jointly), on a pro rata basis as determined in accordance with Section 11(d) below, give the
same indemnities as the Approving Holders for representations and warranties regarding the Company and its assets, liabilities and business and for covenants of the Company (collectively, the “Company Indemnities”) and
(ii) solely on behalf of such holder, make such representations, warranties, covenants and give such indemnities concerning such holder and the Company Units or other equity securities or interests (if any) to be sold by such holder
(collectively, the “Unitholder Obligations”) as may be also applicable to all other holders of Company Units and the Company Units to be sold by such other parties set forth in any agreement approved by the Institutional Investors
and the Board (to the extent required by applicable Delaware law); provided that: (A) the pro rata share of a holder of Company Units for any amounts payable in connection with any claim under the Company Indemnities by the purchaser(s) in such
Sale of the Company transaction (any such amount payable, an “Indemnity Loss”) shall be determined in accordance with Section 11(d) below, and (B) if any holder of Company Units pays for more than such holder’s
pro rata share (as determined in accordance with Section 11(d) below) of an Indemnity Loss (such amount, the “Loss Overpayment”), then each other holder of Company Units shall simultaneously contribute to such holder an
amount equal to such other holder’s allocable share (based upon such holder’s pro rata share, as determined in accordance with Section 11(d) below, of the Indemnity Loss) of such Loss Overpayment. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, no holder of Company Units shall be required to agree to be liable for Indemnity Losses in an amount in the aggregate greater than the total consideration received by such holder in connection with such Sale of the
Company. 
 (b) In the event that a Sale of the Company involves a sale of less than all of the Company Units,
each holder of Company Units shall be required to sell his, her or its Company Units in such Sale of the Company, subject to complying with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 11. The number of Company Units which shall be
sold by each holder of Company Units participating in such Sale of the Company shall be equal to the product of (i) the aggregate number of Company Units owned by such holder multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is
the aggregate number of Company Units being sold by the Institutional Investors in such sale and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Company Units owned by the Institutional Investors at the time of such sale. 

(c) Investor’s obligation to participate in a Sale of the Company is subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions: (i) upon consummation of the Sale of the Company, Investor shall receive the proceeds from such sale in accordance with the terms of Section 11(d) below, and if the holders of any class of Company Units are given an
option as to the form of consideration to be received, all holders of each class of Company Units shall be given the same option subject to Section 11(d) below; provided that the condition that each holder is provided with the same
option to receive the same form of consideration as set forth above shall be deemed satisfied even if certain holders elect to receive, to the exclusion of others, securities of the acquiring Person or any of its Affiliates or a mix of such
securities and cash, so long as each holder of the same class of Company Units receives the same amount of value per Company Unit of each class, whether in cash or such securities, as the Board shall determine in good faith after review of all facts
and circumstances it deems relevant, as of the closing of such Sale of the Company. 
  

 11 








 (d) In the event a Sale of the Company occurs (whether under this
Section 11 or otherwise), each holder of Company Units shall receive in exchange for the Company Units held by such holder an amount equal to such amount that such holder would have received in respect of such holder’s Company Units
if the aggregate consideration (after satisfaction or assumption of all debts and liabilities) from such Sale of the Company had been distributed by the Company in a complete liquidation of the Company in accordance with (including, without
limitation, in the order of priority as set forth in) the terms of the LLC Agreement (and, if less than all of the Company Units of the Company are included in such transaction, then the allocation of such aggregate net consideration shall be
determined as if the Company Units included in such transaction were all of the Company Units of the Company then outstanding and the Company distributed the aggregate consideration in a complete liquidation on that basis, and, for purposes of this
Section 11(d), the terms of the LLC Agreement shall be interpreted consistently with this assumption) (such amount is referred to herein as the “Sale Proceeds Amount”). The allocable share of each holder of Class A
Common Units of any Indemnity Loss shall be an amount equal to the amount by which such holder’s Sale Proceeds Amount would have been reduced had the aggregate consideration from such Sale of the Company been distributed by the Company in
accordance with the sentence immediately foregoing after deducting from such aggregate consideration the aggregate amount of such Indemnity Loss. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 11 with respect to the Unitholder
Obligations, each holder of Company Units shall take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the distribution of the aggregate consideration from such Sale of the Company as requested by the Board. 

(e) Each holder of Class A Common Units shall bear such holder’s pro rata share (based upon the aggregate
consideration received by each holder of Company Units in such sale) of the expenses incurred in connection with a Sale of the Company (whether under this Section 11 or otherwise) to the extent such expenses are incurred for the benefit
of all holders of Company Units and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring party. For purposes of this Section 11(e), expenses incurred in exercising reasonable efforts to take all necessary actions in connection with the
consummation of the Sale of the Company shall be deemed to be for the benefit of all holders of Company Units. Expenses incurred by any holder of Company Units on such holder of Company Units’ own behalf shall not be considered expenses of the
transaction and shall be the responsibility of such holder of Company Units. 
 (f) The provisions of this
Section 11 shall terminate upon the consummation of an IPO.
