(iii)          If the shares of Deliverable Common Stock issued upon an Exchange are not issued pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such shares shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW), OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

 

(iv)          if (i) any shares of Deliverable Common Stock may be sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, (ii) all of the applicable conditions of Rule 144 are met, or (iii) the legend (or a portion thereof) otherwise ceases to be applicable, RocketCo, upon the written request of the Holder thereof shall promptly provide such Holder or its respective transferees, without any expense to such Persons (other than applicable transfer taxes and similar governmental charges, if any) with new certificates (or evidence of book-entry share) for securities of like tenor not bearing the provisions of the legend with respect to which the restriction has terminated.  In connection therewith, such Holder shall provide RocketCo will such information in its possession as RocketCo may reasonably request in connection with the removal of any such legend.

 

(e)           RocketCo shall bear all expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated, including any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; provided, however, that if any shares of Deliverable Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the Holder that requested the Exchange (or The Depository Trust Company or its nominee for the account of a participant of The Depository Trust Company that will hold the shares for the account of such Holder), then such Holder and/or the Person in whose name such shares are to be delivered shall pay to RocketCo the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of RocketCo that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

 

(f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article II, a Holder shall not be entitled to effect an Exchange, and RocketCo and the Company shall have the right to refuse to honor any request to effect an Exchange, at any time or during any period, if RocketCo or the Company shall reasonably determine that such Exchange (i) would be prohibited by any Applicable Law (including the unavailability of any requisite registration statement filed under the Securities Act or any exemption from the registration requirements thereunder), provided this subsection Section 2.02(f)(i) shall not limit RocketCo or the Company’s obligations under Section 2.06(c) or (ii) would not be permitted under (x) the LLC Agreement, (y) other agreements with RocketCo, the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries to which such Exchanging Holder may be party or (z) any written policies of RocketCo, the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries related to unlawful or

 

7











 

inappropriate trading applicable to its directors, officers or other personnel. Upon such determination, RocketCo or the Company (as applicable) shall notify the Holder requesting the Exchange of such determination, which such notice shall include an explanation in reasonable detail as to the reason that the Exchange has not been honored. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if RocketCo, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and tax advisor, shall determine in good faith that interests in the Company do not meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h) (or other provisions of those Treasury Regulations as determined by RocketCo), the Company may impose such restrictions on Exchange as the Company may reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable so that the Company is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code.

 

Section 2.03          Adjustment.

 

(a)           The Exchange Rate with respect to the Class C Paired Interests and/or the components of a Class C Paired Interest shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (i) any subdivision (by any stock or unit split, stock or unit dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock or unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the shares of Class C Common Stock or Holdings Units that is not accompanied by a substantively identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Common Stock; or (ii) any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Common Stock that is not accompanied by a substantively identical subdivision or combination of the shares of Class C Common Stock and Holdings Units. If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an Exchanging Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Exchanging Holder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction.

If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class B Common Stock are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an Exchanging Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Exchanging Holder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction.  For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class B Common Stock are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, this Section 2.03(b) shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property.

9











 

and not be effective if such RocketCo Offer is not consummated)).  In the case of a RocketCo Offer proposed by RocketCo, RocketCo will use its reasonable best efforts expeditiously and in good faith to take all such actions and do all such things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit the Holders of Paired Interests to participate in such RocketCo Offer to the same extent or on an economically equivalent basis as the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock without discrimination; provided, that without limiting the generality of this sentence, RocketCo will use its reasonable best efforts expeditiously and in good faith to ensure that such Holders may participate in each such RocketCo Offer without being required to Exchange Paired Interests.  For the avoidance of doubt (but subject to Section 2.04(b)), in no event shall the Holders of Paired Interests be entitled to receive in such RocketCo Offer aggregate consideration for each Paired Interest that is greater than the consideration payable in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock in connection with a RocketCo Offer.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event of a RocketCo Offer intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as a transfer described in Section 351(a) or Section 721 of the Code, a Holder shall not be required to exchange its Paired Interest without its prior consent.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) in a RocketCo Offer where the consideration payable in connection therewith includes Equity Securities, the aggregate consideration for any Class D Paired Interest shall be deemed to be equivalent to the consideration payable in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock if the only difference in the per share distribution to the Holders of Class D Paired Interests is that the Equity Securities distributed to such Holders have not more than ten times the voting power of any Equity Securities distributed to the holder of a share of Class A Common Stock (so long as such Equity Securities issued to the Class D Paired Interests remain subject to automatic conversion on terms no more favorable to such Holders than those set forth in Article IV, Section G of the RocketCo Charter), (ii) in a RocketCo Offer, payments under or in respect of the Tax Receivable Agreements shall not be considered part of the consideration payable in respect of any Paired Interest or share of Class A Common Stock in connection with such RocketCo Offer for the purposes of Section 2.04(a), and (iii) the Company shall not be entitled to make a Cash Exchange Payment in the case of an Exchange in connection with a RocketCo Offer.

 

Section 2.05          Listing of Deliverable Common Stock.  If the Class A Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, RocketCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Class A Common Stock issued upon an exchange of Paired Interests to be listed on the same securities exchange or traded on such inter-dealer quotation system at the time of such issuance.

 

Section 2.06          Deliverable Common Stock to be Issued; Class C Common Stock or Class D Common Stock to be Cancelled.

 

(a)           RocketCo shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, the maximum number of shares of Deliverable Common Stock as shall be deliverable upon Exchange of all then-outstanding Paired Interests; provided,

 

10









 

that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude RocketCo from satisfying its obligations in respect of an Exchange by delivery of shares of Deliverable Common Stock that are held in the treasury of RocketCo or any of its subsidiaries or by delivery of purchased shares of Deliverable Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of RocketCo or any subsidiary thereof).  RocketCo covenants that all shares of Deliverable Common Stock issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance thereof, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

(b)           When a Paired Interest has been Exchanged in accordance with this Agreement, (i) the share of Class C Common Stock or Class D Common Stock corresponding to such Paired Interest shall be cancelled by RocketCo and (ii) the Holdings Unit corresponding to such Paired Interest shall be deemed transferred from the Exchanging Holder to RocketCo and the Company shall cause such transfer to be registered in the books and records of the Company.

 

(c)           RocketCo agrees that it has taken all or will take such steps as may be required to cause to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3(d) or (e), as applicable, under the Exchange Act, and to be exempt for purposes of Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, any acquisitions from, or dispositions to, RocketCo of equity securities of RocketCo (including derivative securities with respect thereto) and any securities that may be deemed to be equity securities or derivative securities of RocketCo for such purposes that result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, by each officer or director of RocketCo, including any director by deputization.  The authorizing resolutions shall be approved by either RocketCo’s board of directors or a committee composed solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors (as defined in Rule 16b-3) of RocketCo.

 

Section 2.07          Distributions.  No Exchange shall impair the right of the Exchanging Holder to receive any distributions payable on the Holdings Units so exchanged in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Exchange Date for such Exchange.  No adjustments in respect of dividends or distributions on any Holdings Unit will be made on the Exchange of any Paired Interest, and if the Exchange Date with respect to a Holdings Unit occurs after the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution on Holdings Units but before the date of the payment, then the registered Holder of the Holdings Unit at the close of business on the record date will be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on the Holdings Unit on the payment date (without duplication of any distribution to which such Holder may be entitled under Section 5.03(c) of the LLC Agreement in respect of taxes) notwithstanding the Exchange of the Paired Interests or a default in payment of the dividend or distribution due on the Exchange Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Exchanging Holder shall be entitled to receive, in respect of a single record date, distributions or dividends both on Holdings Units exchanged by such Holder and on shares of Deliverable Common Stock received by such Holder in such Exchange.

 

Section 2.08          Withholding; Certification of Non-Foreign Status.

 

(a)           If RocketCo or the Company shall be required to withhold any amounts by reason of any federal, state, local or non-U.S. foreign tax rules or regulations in respect of any Exchange, RocketCo or the Company, as the case may be, shall be entitled to take

 

11











 

such action as it deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance with such withholding requirements, including, at its option, withholding shares of Class A Common Stock with a fair market value equal to the minimum amount of any taxes that RocketCo or the Company, as the case may be, may be required to withhold with respect to such Exchange. To the extent that amounts are (or property is) so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such withheld amounts (or property) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid (or delivered) to the applicable Holder.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of RocketCo and the Company may, in its discretion, require that an exchanging Holder deliver to the RocketCo or the Company, as the case may be, a certification of non-foreign status in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b) and 1.1446(f)-2(b)(2) prior to an Exchange. In the event RocketCo or the Company has required delivery of such certification but an exchanging Holder does not provide such certification, RocketCo or the Company, as the case may be, shall nevertheless deliver or cause to be delivered to the exchanging Holder the Class A Common Stock or the Class B Common Stock, as applicable, or Cash Payment in accordance with Section 2.01, but subject to withholding as provided in Section 2.08(a).

RHI (and any party receiving Information from RHI) who shall receive Information shall maintain the confidentiality of such Information, and RocketCo shall not be required to disclose any privileged Information of RocketCo so long as RocketCo has used its commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an arrangement pursuant to which it may provide such information to RHI without the loss of any such privilege.
