Article II


 


DETERMINATION OF CERTAIN REALIZED TAX BENEFIT


 


Section 2.1             Basis
Adjustment. Within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of PubCo
for each Taxable Year in which the Purchase or any Exchange has been effected by any TRA Party (including the Taxable Year in which the
Purchase occurs), PubCo shall deliver to such TRA Party a schedule (the “Exchange Basis Schedule”) that shows, in reasonable
detail necessary to perform the calculations required by this Agreement, the following items: (i) the Non-Stepped Up Tax Basis of
the Reference Assets in respect of such TRA Party as of the Effective Date or each applicable Exchange Date, (ii) the Basis Adjustment
with respect to the Reference Assets in respect of such TRA Party as a result of the Purchase or Exchanges effected in such Taxable Year
by such TRA Party, calculated (x) in the aggregate, (y) solely with respect to the Purchase or Exchanges by such TRA Party,
and (z) in the case of a Basis Adjustment under Section 734(b) of the Code solely with respect to the amount that is available
to PubCo in such Taxable Year, (iii) the period (or periods) over which the Reference Assets in respect of such TRA Party are amortizable
and/or depreciable, and (iv) the period (or periods) over which each Basis Adjustment in respect of such TRA Party is amortizable
and/or depreciable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Basis Schedule shall reflect all changes in the basis of Reference Assets
arising other than from a Basis Adjustment (e.g., as the result of an audit). Each Exchange Basis Schedule will become final as provided
in Section 2.3(a) and may be amended as provided in Section 2.3(b) (subject to the procedures set forth
in Section 2.3(b)).


 






    8


     


    

 



Section 2.2             Tax
Benefit Schedule.


 


(a)            Tax
Benefit Schedule. Within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return
of PubCo for any Taxable Year in which there is a Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment a portion of which is Attributable to
a TRA Party, PubCo shall provide to such TRA Party a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Tax Benefit Payment
for such Taxable Year and the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit and Realized Tax Detriment and components thereof (a “Tax
Benefit Schedule”). Each Tax Benefit Schedule will become final as provided in Section 2.3(a) and may be amended
as provided in Section 2.3(b) (subject to the procedures set forth in Section 2.3(b)).


 


(b)            Applicable
Principles. The Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for each Taxable Year is intended to measure the decrease or increase
in the actual liability for taxes of PubCo for such Taxable Year attributable to the Basis Adjustments and Imputed Interest, determined
using a “with and without” methodology. For purposes of calculating the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for
any period, carryovers or carrybacks of any Tax item attributable to the Basis Adjustments and Imputed Interest shall be considered to
be subject to the rules of the Code and the Treasury Regulations, as applicable, governing the use, limitation and expiration of
carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. If a carryover or carryback of any Tax item includes a portion that is attributable to
the Basis Adjustment or Imputed Interest and another portion that is not, such respective portions shall be considered to be used in accordance
with the “with and without” methodology. The parties agree that (i) all Tax Benefit Payments and other payments under
this Agreement (to the extent permitted by law and other than amounts accounted for as interest under the Code) will (A) be treated
as subsequent upward purchase price adjustments that give rise to further Basis Adjustments to Reference Assets for PubCo and (B) have
the effect of creating additional Basis Adjustments to Reference Assets for PubCo in the year of payment, and (ii) as a result, such
additional Basis Adjustments will be incorporated into the calculation in the year of payment and into future year calculations, as appropriate.

Section 2.3             Procedures,
Amendments.


 


(a)           Procedure.
Every time PubCo delivers to a TRA Party an applicable Schedule under this Agreement, including any Amended Schedule delivered pursuant
to Section 2.3(b), and any Early Termination Schedule or amended Early Termination Schedule, PubCo shall also (x) deliver
to such TRA Party schedules, valuation reports, if any, and work papers, as determined by PubCo or requested by such TRA Party, providing
reasonable detail regarding the preparation of the Schedule and (y) allow such TRA Party reasonable access, at no cost, to the appropriate
representatives at PubCo, as determined by PubCo or requested by such TRA Party, in connection with a review of such Schedule. Without
limiting the application of the preceding sentence, each time PubCo delivers to a TRA Party a Tax Benefit Schedule, in addition to the
Tax Benefit Schedule duly completed, PubCo shall deliver to such TRA Party the reasonably detailed calculation by PubCo of the applicable
Hypothetical Tax Liability, the reasonably detailed calculation by PubCo of the applicable Actual Tax Liability, as well as any other
work papers as determined by PubCo or requested by such TRA Party, provided that PubCo shall be entitled to redact any information
that it reasonably believes is unnecessary for purposes of determining the items in the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto. An
applicable Schedule or amendment thereto delivered to a TRA Party shall become final and binding on the TRA Party and PubCo thirty (30) calendar
days after the first date on which such TRA Party has received the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto unless such TRA Party (i) within
thirty (30) calendar days after receiving an applicable Schedule or amendment thereto, provides PubCo with notice of a material
objection to such Schedule (“Objection Notice”) made in good faith or (ii) provides a written waiver of such
right of any Objection Notice within the period described in clause (i) above, in which case such Schedule or amendment thereto
becomes binding on the date the waiver is received by PubCo. If PubCo and an objecting TRA Party, for any reason, are unable to successfully
resolve the issues raised in the Objection Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by PubCo of the Objection Notice,
PubCo and such TRA Party shall employ the reconciliation procedures as described in Section 7.8 of this Agreement (the “Reconciliation
Procedures”).


 


(b)           Amended
Schedule. The applicable Schedule for any Taxable Year may be amended from time to time by PubCo (i) in connection with a Determination
affecting such Schedule, (ii) to correct inaccuracies in the Schedule identified after the date the Schedule was provided to a TRA
Party, (iii) to comply with the Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation Procedures, (iv) to reflect a change
in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to a carryback or carryforward of a loss or
other tax item to such Taxable Year, (v) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable
Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable Year, or (vi) to adjust an applicable Exchange Basis Schedule
to take into account payments made pursuant to this Agreement (any such Schedule, an “Amended Schedule”). PubCo shall
provide an Amended Schedule to each TRA Party within ninety (90) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referenced in clauses (i) through
(vi) of the preceding sentence.


 


Article III


 


TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS


 


Section 3.1             Payments.


 


(a)           Payments.
Within ten (10) calendar days after a Tax Benefit Schedule delivered to a TRA Party becomes final in accordance with Article II
of this Agreement, PubCo shall pay or cause to be paid to such TRA Party for such Taxable Year the Tax Benefit Payment in respect
of such TRA Party for such Taxable Year determined pursuant to Section 3.1(b). Each such Tax Benefit Payment shall be made
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account previously designated by such TRA Party to PubCo or as otherwise
agreed by PubCo and such TRA Party. No Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of estimated tax payments, including, without limitation,
federal estimated income Tax payments.


 






    10


     


    

 


(b)           A
 “Tax Benefit Payment” in respect of a TRA Party for a Taxable Year means an amount, not less than zero, equal to the
sum of the portion of the Net Tax Benefit that is Attributable to such TRA Party and the Interest Amount with respect thereto. A Net Tax
Benefit is “Attributable” to a TRA Party to the extent that it is derived from any Basis Adjustment or any Imputed
Interest that is attributable to the Company Interests acquired by PubCo in the Purchase or pursuant to an Exchange undertaken by or with
respect to such TRA Party. For the avoidance of doubt, for tax purposes, the Interest Amount shall not be treated as interest but instead
shall be treated as additional consideration for the acquisition of Company Interests in Exchanges unless otherwise required by law. The
 “Net Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year shall be an amount equal to the excess, if any, of 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized
Tax Benefit as of the end of such Taxable Year, over the total amount of payments previously made under Section 3.1(a) of
this Agreement (excluding payments attributable to Interest Amounts); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that no TRA Party
shall be required to return any portion of any previously made Tax Benefit Payment or make a payment with respect to the existence of
a Realized Tax Detriment. The “Interest Amount” in respect of a TRA Party shall equal the interest on the amount of
the unpaid Net Tax Benefit Attributable to such TRA Party for a Taxable Year, which interest shall accrue on any unpaid Net Tax Benefit
from and after the due date (without extensions) for filing PubCo Return for such Taxable Year, calculated at the Agreed Rate, until the
date such unpaid amounts are paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each Taxable Year ending on or after the date of a Change of Control,
all Tax Benefit Payments, whether paid with respect to the Company Interests that were Exchanged (i) prior to the date of such Change
of Control or (ii) on or after the date of such Change of Control, shall be calculated by utilizing Valuation Assumptions (1) and
(4), substituting in each case the terms “the date of a Change of Control” for an “Early Termination Date.” Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, after any lump-sum payment under Article IV of this Agreement in respect of present
or future tax attributes subject to this Agreement, the Tax Benefit Payment, Net Tax Benefit and components thereof shall be calculated
without taking into account any such attributes with respect to which such a lump sum payment has been made or any such lump-sum payment.


  


Section 3.2             No
Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in duplicative payment of any amount (including
interest) required under this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in the appropriate manner to ensure such
intentions are realized.


 


Section 3.3             Pro
Rata Payments; Limited Taxable Income; Excess Payments.


 


(a)           Notwithstanding
anything in Section 3.1 to the contrary, to the extent that the aggregate amount of PubCo’s tax benefit from the reduction
in Tax liability as a result of the Basis Adjustments or Imputed Interest is limited in a particular Taxable Year because PubCo does
not have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize available deductions and other attributes, the limitation on the tax benefit for
PubCo shall be allocated among the TRA Parties eligible for payments under this Agreement in proportion to the respective amounts of
Tax Benefit Payments that would have been determined under this Agreement if PubCo had sufficient taxable income so that there were no
such limitation.


 






    11


     


    

 


(b)           After
taking into account Section 3.3(a), if for any reason PubCo does not fully satisfy its payment obligations to make all Tax
Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year, then PubCo and the TRA Parties agree that (i) PubCo
shall pay the same proportion of each Tax Benefit Payment due to each TRA Party due a payment under this Agreement in respect of such
Taxable Year, without favoring one obligation over the other, and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable
Year until all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of prior Taxable Years have been made in full; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that
this Section 3.3(b) shall be not be deemed to preclude a TRA Party from seeking all available remedies under this Agreement
and applicable law with respect to any failure by PubCo to satisfy its obligations to make timely all Tax Benefit Payments due under
this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year.


  


(c)            To
the extent PubCo makes a payment to a TRA Party in respect of a particular Taxable Year under Section 3.1(a) of this
Agreement (taking into account Section 3.3(a) and (b), but excluding payments attributable to Interest Amounts)
in an amount in excess of the amount of such payment that should have been made to such TRA Party in respect of such Taxable Year, then
(i) such TRA Party shall not receive further payments under Section 3.1(a) until such TRA Party has foregone an
amount of payments equal to such excess and (ii) PubCo shall pay the amount of such TRA Party’s foregone payments to the other
TRA Parties in a manner such that each of the other TRA Parties, to the maximum extent possible, shall have received aggregate payments
under Section 3.1(a) of this Agreement (taking into account Section 3.3(a) and (b) of this
Agreement but excluding payments attributable to Interest Amounts) in the amount it would have received if there had been no excess payment
to such TRA Party.


 


Section 3.4             Certain
Tax Covenants.


 


(a)            PubCo
hereby agrees and warrants to each TRA Party that (i) it will not cause the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to convert into,
or elect to be treated as, a corporation for Tax purposes without the prior written consent of each TRA Party (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if any such action could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on a
TRA Party’s right to receive Tax Benefit Payments pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) it will not cause the Company to contribute
any of its assets (other than any assets with a de minimis aggregate gross value) into one or more Subsidiaries that are treated
as corporations for Tax purposes, or cause the Company to liquidate or distribute in kind any of its non-cash assets to its members, without
the prior written consent of each TRA Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), if any such action
could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on a TRA Party’s right to receive Tax Benefit Payments pursuant to
this Agreement and (iii) it will use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid entering into any credit agreement that could reasonably
expected to prevent PubCo from making Tax Benefit Payments in a manner described in Section 4.1(f)(ii).


 


(b)            PubCo
hereby agrees that prior to (i) any proposed sale or other disposition of all or any part of PubCo’s interest in the Company
or (ii) any proposed sale or other disposition of all or any substantial part of the non-cash assets of the Company, it shall deliver
to each TRA Party notice of such proposed transaction at least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation thereof.

Article IV


 


TERMINATION


 


Section 4.1             Early
Termination and Breach of Agreement.


 


(a)            Unless
terminated earlier pursuant to this Section 4.1, this Agreement will terminate when there is no further potential for a Tax
Benefit Payment pursuant to this Agreement. Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement are not conditioned on any TRA Party retaining an
interest in PubCo or the Company (or any successor thereto); provided, however, no Tax Benefit Payment shall accrue, or shall become
due or payable with respect to any Exchange, after the twentieth (20th) anniversary of the effective date of such Exchange.


 


(b)            In
the event of a Change of Control, each TRA Party shall have the option, in its sole discretion, by written notice to PubCo, to cause the
acceleration of all unpaid payment obligations of PubCo hereunder as calculated pursuant to this Article IV as if an Early
Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date of the Change of Control and utilizing the Valuation Assumptions by substituting
the phrase “the closing date of a Change of Control” in each place where the phrase “Early Termination Effective Date”
appears. Such obligations shall include, without duplication, but not be limited to, (i) the Early Termination Payments calculated
as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date of the Change of Control, (ii) any Tax Benefit Payments
agreed to by PubCo and the TRA Holders as due and payable but unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice (which Tax Benefit Payments shall
not be included in the Early Termination Payments) and that remain unpaid as of the payment of the Early Termination Payments, and (iii) any
Tax Benefit Payments due for any Taxable Year ending prior to, with or including the closing date of a Change of Control unpaid as of
the Early Termination Notice (except to the extent that any amounts described in clause (iii) are included in the Early Termination
Payments or are included in clause (ii)) and that remain unpaid as of the payment of the Early Termination Payments. For the avoidance
of doubt, Sections 4.2 and 4.3 shall apply to a Change of Control, mutadis mutandis.


 


(c)            PubCo
may terminate this Agreement with respect to all amounts payable to the TRA Parties and with respect to all of the Company Interests held
by the TRA Parties at any time by paying to each TRA Party the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party; provided,
however, that this Agreement shall only terminate pursuant to this Section 4.1(c) upon the receipt of the Early
Termination Payment by all TRA Parties; provided, further, that PubCo may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 4.1(c) with respect to some or all of the amounts payable to less than all of the TRA Parties, if PubCo and such
TRA Parties agree in writing to do so; and provided, further that PubCo may withdraw any notice to execute its termination
rights under this Section 4.1(c) prior to the time at which an Early Termination Payment has been paid. Upon payment
of the Early Termination Payment by PubCo in accordance with this Section 4.1(c), PubCo shall not have any further payment
obligations under this Agreement, other than for any (a) Tax Benefit Payment agreed to by PubCo, on one hand, and the TRA Party,
on the other, as due and payable but unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice and (b) Tax Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year
ending with or including the date of the Early Termination Notice (except to the extent that the amount described in clause (b) is
included in the Early Termination Payment). If an Exchange by a TRA Party occurs after PubCo makes the Early Termination Payment to such
TRA Party pursuant to this Section 4.1(c), PubCo shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Exchange.


 






    13


     


    

 


(d)            The
parties agree that, subject to Section 4.1(f), the failure to make any payment due pursuant to this Agreement within three
(3) months of the date such payment is due shall be deemed to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement for all purposes
of this Agreement.


 


(e)            In
the event that PubCo breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, whether as a result of failure to make any payment
within three (3) months of the date on which such payment is due, failure to honor any other material obligation required hereunder
or by operation of law as a result of the rejection of this Agreement in a case commenced under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, then
all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered
on the date of such breach and shall include (without duplication), but not be limited to, (1) the Early Termination Payments calculated
as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such breach, (2) any Tax Benefit Payment in respect of a TRA
Party agreed to by PubCo and such TRA Party as due and payable but unpaid as of the date of such breach, and (3) any Tax Benefit
Payment in respect of any TRA Party due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of such breach; provided that
procedures similar to the procedures of Section 4.2 shall apply with respect to the determination of the amount payable by
PubCo pursuant to this sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that PubCo breaches this Agreement, each TRA Party shall
be entitled to elect to receive the amounts set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above or to seek specific performance
of the terms hereof.


 


(f)            Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, PubCo shall not be considered to be in breach of a material obligation under this Agreement
on account of a failure to make a payment due pursuant to this Agreement if:


 


(i)            PubCo
makes the applicable payment within three (3) months of the date such payment is due; or


 


(ii)            PubCo
fails to make any Tax Benefit Payment when due to the extent that PubCo has insufficient funds by reason of the Company having insufficient
funds to make a distribution to PubCo in order for PubCo make such payment, or due to such payment being prohibited as a result of limitations
imposed by any credit agreement to which the Company is a party);


 


provided
that the interest provisions of Section 5.2 shall apply to such late payment; provided, further, that (A) PubCo
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid entering into credit agreements described in this Section 4.1(f)(ii) that
would prevent PubCo from making Tax Benefit Payments in the ordinary course, and (B) solely with respect to a Tax Benefit Payment,
if PubCo cannot make such payment as a result of limitations imposed by any credit agreement to which the Company is a party, which limitations
are effective as of the date of this Agreement, Section 5.2 shall apply, but the Default Rate shall be replaced by the Agreed
Rate. To the extent PubCo defers any payment under clause (ii) of this subsection, it shall make the applicable payment at the first
opportunity that it has sufficient funds and is otherwise able to make the payment, and failure to do so shall be subject to the remedies
set forth in Section 4.1(e).


 






    14


     


    

 


Section 4.2             Early
Termination Notice. If PubCo chooses to exercise its right of early termination under Section 4.1 above, PubCo shall deliver
to each TRA Party with respect to whom such right of early termination is being exercised notice of such intention to exercise such right
(“Early Termination Notice”) and a schedule (the “Early Termination Schedule”) specifying PubCo’s
intention to exercise such right and showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment(s) due to each
such TRA Party. Each Early Termination Schedule shall become final and binding on all parties thirty (30) calendar days after the first
date on which the TRA Party has received such Schedule or amendment thereto unless such TRA Party (i) within thirty (30) calendar
days after receiving the Early Termination Schedule or any amendment thereto, provides PubCo with notice of a material objection to such
Schedule made in good faith (“Material Objection Notice”) or (ii) provides a written waiver of such right of a
Material Objection Notice within the period described in clause (i) above, in which case such Schedule becomes binding on the
date the waiver is received by PubCo (such thirty (30) calendar day date as modified, if at all by clauses (i) or (ii),
the “Early Termination Effective Date”). If PubCo and a TRA Party, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve
the issues raised in such notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by PubCo of the Material Objection Notice, PubCo
and such TRA Party shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures in which case such Schedule becomes binding ten (10) days after the
conclusion of the Reconciliation Procedures.


 


Section 4.3             Payment
upon Early Termination.


 


(a)            Within
five (5) Business Days after an Early Termination Effective Date, PubCo shall pay to each TRA Party with respect to whom such termination
has just occurred an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment with respect to such TRA Party. Such payment shall be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated by such TRA Party or as otherwise agreed by PubCo and
such TRA Party.


 


(b)            If
for any reason PubCo does not fully satisfy its payment obligations due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year,
then PubCo and the TRA Parties agree that (i) no Early Termination Payment shall be treated as having been made until all Tax Benefit
Payments under Section 3.1 in respect of the current Taxable Year and all prior Taxable Years have been made in full, (ii) no
Early Termination Payments shall be treated as having been made until all Early Termination Payments made pursuant to earlier-provided
Early Termination Notices have been made in full, and (iii) if PubCo does not pay all Early Termination Payments in respect of Early
Termination Notices given in the same calendar year, the total amount paid shall be allocated pro-rata based on the outstanding Early
Termination Payments due.


 






    15


     


    

 


Article V


 


SUBORDINATION AND LATE PAYMENTS


 


Section 5.1             Subordination.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or any other
payment required to be made by PubCo to the TRA Parties under this Agreement shall rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to
any principal, interest or other amounts due and payable in respect of any obligations in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of
PubCo and its Subsidiaries (such obligations, “Senior Obligations”) and shall rank pari passu with all
current or future unsecured obligations of PubCo that are not Senior Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts owed by PubCo
under this Agreement are not Senior Obligations.


  


Section 5.2             Late
Payments by PubCo. The amount of all or any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other payment under this
Agreement not made to the TRA Parties when due under the terms of this Agreement shall be payable together with any interest thereon,
computed at the Default Rate and commencing from the date on which such Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other payment
was due and payable.


 


Article VI


 


NO DISPUTES; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION


 


Section 6.1             Participation
in PubCo’s and the Company’s Tax Matters. Except as otherwise provided herein, under the Business Combination Agreement,
or under the Company Agreement, PubCo shall have full responsibility for, and sole discretion over, all tax matters concerning PubCo and
the Company, including without limitation the preparation, filing or amending of any Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling
any issue pertaining to taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PubCo shall notify a TRA Party of, and (to the extent permitted by law or
regulation) will use its best efforts to keep such TRA Party reasonably informed with respect to, the portion of any audit of PubCo and
the Company by a Taxing Authority the outcome of which is reasonably expected to affect the rights and obligations of such TRA Party under
this Agreement, and shall use its best efforts to provide to each such TRA Party reasonable opportunity to provide information and other
input to PubCo, the Company and their respective advisors concerning the conduct of any such portion of such audit.


 


Section 6.2             Consistency.
PubCo and the TRA Parties agree to report and cause to be reported for all purposes, including federal, state and local tax purposes and
financial reporting purposes, all tax-related items (including, without limitation, the Basis Adjustments and each Tax Benefit Payment)
in a manner consistent with that specified by PubCo in any Schedule required to be provided by or on behalf of PubCo under this Agreement
unless otherwise required by law.


 


Section 6.3             Cooperation.
Each of PubCo and the TRA Parties shall (a) furnish to the other party in a timely manner such information, documents and other materials
as the other party may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary or appropriate under this
Agreement, preparing any Tax Return or contesting or defending any audit, examination or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (b) make
itself available to the other party and its representatives to provide explanations of documents and materials and such other information
as the other party or its representatives may reasonably request in connection with any of the matters described in clause (a) above,
and (c) reasonably cooperate in connection with any such matter, and PubCo shall reimburse each such TRA Party for any reasonable
third-party costs and expenses incurred pursuant to this Section.

Section 7.4             Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other
terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of
the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term
or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions

Assignment; Amendments; Waivers.


 


(a)            Each
TRA Party may assign any of its rights under this Agreement in whole or in part to any Person as long as such transferee has executed

or such other form mutually agreed by the parties, agreeing to become a TRA Party for all purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise
provided in such joinder.


 


(b)            No
provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is approved in writing by PubCo and each of the TRA
Parties. Any failure by a party to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this Agreement, or to exercise any right or
remedy upon a breach of any such provision, will not constitute a waiver of the party’s right to enforce the provision or to exercise
any remedy upon any breach of the provision. Any waiver given by a party with respect to any provision of this Agreement is applicable
only with respect to the specific provision and instance for which it is given. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement
(including this Section 7.5), the execution and delivery of a joinder to this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.5(a) shall
not require the consent of PubCo or any of the TRA Parties.


 


(c)            All
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the parties
hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. PubCo shall require and cause
any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
or assets of PubCo, by written agreement, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent
that PubCo would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.


 


Section 7.6             Titles
and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be
considered in construing this Agreement.

Section 7.7             Resolution
of Disputes.


 


Except as provided for in
the last sentence of this Section 7.7, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws
of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware
or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware. Any
dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, including but not limited to the scope and applicability of
this Section 7.7, shall be referred to and finally determined by arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and
Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator
with at least twenty years of experience resolving commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS
arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. The seat of arbitration will be Michigan and the language
of the arbitration proceedings will be English. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction or application
may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. For all purposes of this
Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the United States Federal Courts located in Michigan. This Section 7.7
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and, to the extent not inconsistent with such Federal
Arbitration Act, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles that would cause the application of the
laws of another jurisdiction.


  


Section 7.8             Reconciliation.
In the event that PubCo and a TRA Party are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to the matters governed by Sections 2.3,
3.1, or 4.2 within the relevant period designated in this Agreement (“Reconciliation Dispute”), the Reconciliation
Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “Expert”) in the particular area
of disagreement mutually acceptable to both parties. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally recognized accounting
or law firm, and unless PubCo and such TRA Party agree otherwise, the Expert shall not, and the firm that employs the Expert shall not,
have any material relationship with PubCo or such TRA Party or other actual or potential conflict of interest. If PubCo and the TRA Party
are unable to agree on an Expert within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the respondent(s) of written notice of a Reconciliation
Dispute, the Expert shall be appointed by the International Chamber of Commerce Centre for Expertise. The Expert shall resolve any matter
relating to the Exchange Basis Schedule or an amendment thereto or the Early Termination Schedule or an amendment thereto within thirty
(30) calendar days and shall resolve any matter relating to a Tax Benefit Schedule or an amendment thereto within fifteen (15) calendar
days or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, in each case after the matter has been submitted to the Expert for resolution.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the matter is not resolved before any payment that is the subject of a disagreement would be
due (in the absence of such disagreement) or any Tax Return reflecting the subject of a disagreement is due, the undisputed amount shall
be paid on the date prescribed by this Agreement and such Tax Return may be filed as prepared by PubCo, subject to adjustment or amendment
upon resolution. The costs and expenses relating to the engagement of such Expert or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by PubCo except
as provided in the next sentence. PubCo and the TRA Party shall bear their own costs and expenses of such proceeding, unless (i) the
Expert adopts the TRA Party’s position, in which case PubCo shall reimburse the TRA Party for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert adopts PubCo’s position, in which case the TRA Party shall reimburse PubCo
for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding. Any dispute as to whether a dispute is a Reconciliation Dispute
within the meaning of this Section 7.8 shall be decided by the Expert. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation
Dispute and the determinations of the Expert pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall be binding on PubCo and the TRA Party and
may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction.


 






    19


     


    

 


Section 7.9             Withholding.
PubCo shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as PubCo is required to
deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law; provided
that PubCo will provide the Person in respect of which such withholding is required written notice at least five (5) Business Days
prior to any such deduction or withholding and shall reasonably cooperate with such Person to reduce or eliminate such withholding to
the extent permitted by law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by PubCo, such
withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such withholding
was made. Each TRA Party shall promptly provide PubCo with any applicable tax forms and certifications reasonably requested by PubCo in
connection with determining whether any such deductions and withholdings are required under the Code or any provision of state, local
or foreign tax law.


 


Section 7.10           Admission
of PubCo into a Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets.


 


(a)            If
PubCo is or becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a consolidated income Tax Return pursuant
to Section 1501 of the Code or any corresponding provisions of state or local law, then: (i) the provisions of this Agreement
shall be applied with respect to the group as a whole; and (ii) Tax Benefit Payments, Early Termination Payments and other applicable
items hereunder shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income of the group as a whole.


 


(b)            The
amount of any Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit shall take into account the Basis Adjustment resulting from any transfer of Company
Interests to a wholly owned Subsidiary of PubCo (or any similar transfer within the consolidated group of which PubCo is the parent),
assuming for this purpose that such transfer is treated as an Exchange, and appropriate adjustments, if any, shall be made to the applicable
amount of Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit or any component of such amount.


 


(c)            If
any entity that is obligated to make a Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment hereunder transfers one or more assets to a corporation
(or a Person classified as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) with which such entity does not file a consolidated
Tax Return pursuant to Section 1501 of the Code, such entity, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Tax Benefit Payment or
Early Termination Payment (e.g., calculating the gross income of the entity and determining the Realized Tax Benefit of such entity) due
hereunder, shall be treated as having disposed of such asset in a fully taxable transaction on the date of such contribution. The consideration
deemed to be received by such entity shall be equal to the gross fair market value of the contributed asset. For purposes of this Section 7.10,
a transfer of a partnership interest shall be treated as a transfer of the transferring partner’s share of each of the assets and
liabilities of that partnership allocated to such partner. If any member of a group described in Section 7.10(a) that
is obligated to make a Tax Benefit Payment hereunder deconsolidates from the group (or PubCo deconsolidates from the group), then PubCo
shall cause such member (or the parent of the consolidated group in a case where PubCo deconsolidates from the group) to assume the obligation
to make Tax Benefit Payments in a manner consistent with the terms of its Agreement as the member actually realizes such Tax Benefits.
If a member of a group described in Section 7.10(a) assumes an obligation to make Tax Benefit Payments hereunder, then,
subject to the consent of a TRA Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the initial obligor shall
be relieved of the obligation to the extent so assumed with respect to such TRA Party.

Section 7.11             Confidentiality.


 


(a)            Each
TRA Party and each of their assignees acknowledge and agree that the information of PubCo is confidential and, except in the course of
performing any duties as necessary for PubCo and its Affiliates, as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement,
such person shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters, acquired pursuant
to this Agreement, of PubCo and its Affiliates and successors, concerning the Company and its Affiliates and successors or the TRA Parties,
learned by the TRA Parties heretofore or hereafter. This Section 7.11 shall not apply to (i) any information that has
been made publicly available by PubCo or any of its Affiliates, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of the TRA Party
in violation of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community and (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent
necessary for the TRA Party to prepare and file its Tax Returns, to respond to any inquiries regarding the same from any Taxing Authority
or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit by any Taxing Authority with respect to such returns. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, each TRA Party and each of their assignees (and each employee, representative or other agent of such TRA Party
or its assignees, as applicable) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure
of PubCo, the Company and their Affiliates, and any of their transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other
tax analyses) that are provided to such TRA Party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.


 


(b)            If
a TRA Party or an assignee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 7.11,
PubCo shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 7.11 specifically enforced by injunctive relief
or otherwise by any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being acknowledged and agreed
that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to PubCo or any of its Subsidiaries or the TRA Parties and the
accounts and funds managed by PubCo and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate remedy to such Persons. Such rights and
remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.


 


Section 7.12           Company
Agreement. This Agreement shall be treated as part of the Company 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.


 






    21


     


    

 


Section 7.13           Change
in Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in law, a TRA Party
reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could cause income (other than income arising from receipt of a payment under
this Agreement) recognized by such TRA Party (or direct or indirect equity holders in such TRA Party) upon an Exchange to be treated
as ordinary income rather than capital gain (or otherwise taxed at ordinary income rates) for U.S. federal income Tax purposes or
would have other material adverse tax consequences to PubCo or such TRA Party or any direct or indirect owner of such TRA Party, then
at the election of such TRA Party and to the extent specified by such TRA Party, this Agreement (i) shall cease to have further
effect with respect to such TRA Party, (ii) shall not apply to an Exchange occurring after a date specified by such TRA Party, or
(iii) shall otherwise be amended in a manner determined by such TRA Party; provided that such amendment shall not result
in an increase in payments under this Agreement to such TRA Party at any time as compared to the amounts and times of payments that would
have been due to such TRA Party in the absence of such amendment.
