**WHEREAS**, the Company desires to sell and issue to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to subscribe and purchase from the Company, up to [\*\*\*] Preferred Units of the Company (the "***Units***").

**NOW, THEREFORE**, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Company and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) (i) The Members have established the Company as a "managers-managed" limited liability company and have agreed to initially designate a board of managers (the "**<u>Board of Managers</u>**") of four (4) Persons to manage the Company and its and its Subsidiaries' business and affairs. Each of the Persons appointed to the Board of Managers is referred to herein as a "**<u>Manager</u>**." Subject to the remainder of this <u>Section 4.01</u>, the Board of Managers shall consist of the following individuals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) for so long as the Investor Member or its Affiliates hold any Series B Preferred Units (or any Common Units issued upon conversion thereof), one (1) Manager designated by the Investor Member; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if at any time any Series B Accruing Distribution is not declared and paid in cash in full

------

on the quarterly payment date therefor pursuant to <u>Section 5.01</u>, the Investor Member shall be entitled to designate two (2) Managers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) subject to <u>Section 4.01(a)(vi)</u>, one (1) Manager designated by the Vroom Member (the "**<u>Vroom Manager</u>**"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) one (1) independent Manager designated jointly by the Investor Member and the Vroom Member, which Manager shall be a professional director provided by a nationally recognized corporate services company, and shall not be a director, officer or employee of the Investor Member, the Vroom Member or any of their respective Affiliates (the "**<u>Independent Manager</u>**"). For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Manager may be designated on or after the Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Manager shall have one (1) vote for any matter for which approval of the Board of Managers is required by the Act or this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If at any time any Manager ceases to serve on the Board of Managers (whether due to death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal), then only the Member entitled to designate such Manager shall be entitled to designate a replacement for such Manager by written notice to the Board of Managers. If at any time the Independent Manager ceases to serve on the Board of Managers (whether due to death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal), then the Investor Member and the Vroom Member shall be entitled to jointly designate a replacement for such Independent Manager by written notice to the Board of Managers. The Board of Managers shall initially be comprised of the individuals set forth on <u>SCHEDULE B</u>, which schedule shall be updated from time to reflect any changes to the Board of Managers pursuant to <u>Section 4.01(a)(i)</u> and this <u>Section 4.01(a)(iii)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Board of Managers shall have the exclusive right to manage and control the Company, subject to any other provisions herein specifically requiring the approval of the Members (including, without limitation, <u>Section 3.09(b)</u>). Subject to <u>Section 3.09(b)</u>, the Board of Managers shall have the right to perform all actions necessary, convenient or incidental to the accomplishment of the purposes and authorized acts of the Company, as specified in <u>Section 2.05</u> and <u>Section 2.06</u>, and the Board of Managers, acting as a body pursuant to this Agreement, shall constitute a "manager" of the Company within the meaning of the Act; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no individual Manager shall have the authority or right to act for or bind the Company without the requisite consent of the Board of Managers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Unless expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, any action, consent, approval, election, decision or determination to be made by the Board of Managers under or in connection with this Agreement (including any act by the Board of Managers within its "discretion" under this Agreement and the execution and delivery of any documents or agreements on behalf of the Company), shall be in the sole discretion of the Board of Managers.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Meetings of the Board of Managers shall be held on a quarterly basis, when called by either the chairman thereof or any member of the Board of Managers, upon not less than one (1) business day's advance written notice to the Managers. Attendance at any meeting of the Board of Managers shall constitute waiver of notice of such meeting. Additionally, a waiver of such notice in writing signed by the Manager entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. The quorum for a meeting of the Board of Managers (or any committee) shall be a simple majority in voting power of its members, including at least one (1) Investor Manager (for the avoidance of doubt, vacant Manager positions shall not be counted for purposes of determining quorum). Members of the Board of Managers may participate in any meeting of the Board of Managers (or any committee) by conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. All action taken by the Board of Managers (or any committee) shall be by a simple majority of the voting power represented by the members present at a meeting thereof in person or by telephone or similar communications equipment; <u>provided</u>, <u>that</u>, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (A) the affirmative approval of the Independent Manager (if then seated) and at least one (1) Investor Manager shall be required for any bankruptcy of the Company or any Insolvency Event and (B) in the event that any Event of Default has occurred and remains outstanding, if the Investor Member proposes any plan for filing for bankruptcy of the Company, the Vroom Manager will either vote in favor of such plan or resign.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) The Board of Managers may create and maintain customary committees, including an executive committee, an audit committee and compensation committee. Any such committee shall include at least one (1) Investor Manager.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) The Board of Managers (or any committee) may also take action without any meeting of the members of the Board of Managers (or any committee) by written consent of all of the Managers of the Board of Managers (or any committee) setting forth the action to be approved (for the avoidance of doubt, a vacancy in one or more Manager positions shall not affect the ability of the Managers to take action by written consent).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) A Manager may vote at a meeting of the Board of Managers or any committee thereof either in person or by proxy executed in writing by such Manager. An email by the Manager, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile, electronic or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Manager shall (if stated thereon) be treated as a proxy executed in writing for purposes of this <u>Section 4.01(a)(ix)</u>. Proxies for use at any meeting of the Board of Managers or any committee thereof or in connection with the taking of any action by written consent shall be filed with the Board of Managers, before or at the time of the meeting or execution of the written consent as the case may be. All proxies shall be received and taken charge of and all ballots shall be received and canvassed by the majority of the Board of Managers who shall decide all questions concerning the

------

qualification of voters, the validity of the proxies and the acceptance or rejection of votes. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy shall be revocable unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and that the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two (2) or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such Persons present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by that one; or, if an even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each non-employee Manager in connection with attending the meetings of the Board of Managers (or any committee) and while conducting business at the request of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) For so long as it or its Affiliates hold any Units, each of the Investor Member and the Vroom Member shall have the right to separately designate one (1) individual (the "**<u>Board Observers</u>**") to attend all meetings of the Board of Managers or any committee thereof, in each case as an observer. Each Board Observer shall receive proper notices of all meetings of the Board of Managers or any committee thereof (and shall have the right to participate in all discussions thereat but shall not be entitled to vote on any matter submitted to the Board of Managers for approval) and shall receive all written materials distributed or required to be distributed to the Board of Managers or any committee thereof reasonably in advance of meetings of the Board of Managers or such committee. The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Board Observer in connection with attending the meetings of the Board of Managers and any committee thereof (but in no event shall any Board Observer enjoy compensation from the Company for the performance of such role). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company reserves the right to exclude any Board Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Company believes upon advice of counsel that such exclusion is reasonably necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No Member, in its capacity as such, shall participate in or have any control over the Company Business. Each such Member hereby consents to the exercise by the Board of Managers of the powers conferred upon the Board of Managers by this Agreement. The Members, in their capacities as such, shall not participate in the control, management, direction or operation of the activities or affairs of the Company and shall not have any authority or right, in their capacities as Members of the Company, to act for or bind the Company.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Board of Managers is authorized to appoint any person as an officer of the Company who shall have such powers and perform such duties incident to such person's office as may from time to time be conferred upon or assigned to it by the Board of Managers and assign in writing titles (including Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary) to any such person. Any appointment pursuant to this <u>Section 4.01(c)</u> may be revoked at any time by the Board of Managers. In addition, subject to <u>Section 3.09(b)</u>, the Board of Managers is authorized to employ, engage and dismiss, on behalf of the Company, any Person, including an Affiliate of any Member, to perform services for, or furnish goods to, the Company. Unless the Board of Managers states otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authorities and duties that are normally associated with that office.

## Section 4.02 <u>Actions by the Board of Managers</u>. Except as may be expressly limited by the provisions of this Agreement, including <u>Section 3.09(b)</u>, <u>Section 4.01(a)(v)</u> and <u>Section 4.01(a)(vii)</u>, each Manager is specifically authorized to execute, sign, seal and deliver in the name and on behalf of the Company any and all agreements, certificates, instruments or other documents requisite to carrying out the intentions and purposes of this Agreement and matters approved by the Board of Managers with respect to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) all expenses incurred in connection with any Indebtedness of the Company;

## Section 4.05 <u>Indemnification</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of all officers, Managers and other Indemnified Parties against any liability which may be asserted against, or expense which may be incurred by, any such Person in connection with the Company's activities whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liabilities under the provisions of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this <u>Section 4.05</u> shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of an Indemnified Party.

## Section 4.07 <u>Elimination of Liability and Fiduciary Duties</u>. The Managers (solely in such Managers' capacity as Managers and not, where applicable, in any such Manager's capacity as an Officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) and the Members (solely in such Members' capacity as Members and not, where applicable, in any such Member's capacity as an officer or employee) do not have any duties (including fiduciary duties) to any Member or the Company, and any duties or implied duties (including fiduciary duties) of a Manager or a Member (in such capacities) to the Company or to any Member that would otherwise apply at law or in equity are hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under the Act (including Sections 18-1101(c) and (e) of the Act) and any other applicable Law; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that this Agreement does not limit or eliminate liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or Change of Control of the Company (as applicable), the assets of the Company available for distribution to its Members shall be insufficient to pay the Series B Preferred Members the full amount to which they are entitled to under this <u>Section 5.05(b)</u>, the Series B Preferred Members shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the Series B Preferred Units held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such Series B Preferred Units were paid in full.

# ARTICLE VI <u><br>ACCOUNTING AND TAX MATTERS</u> 

## Section 6.01 <u>Books and Records</u>. At all times during the existence of the Company, the Company shall maintain, at its principal place of business, separate books of account for the Company. Subject to reasonable confidentiality restrictions established by the Board of Managers acting reasonably and in good faith (including as permitted by Section 18-305(c) of the Act), each Member and its respective agents and representatives shall be afforded access to the Company's properties, books and records applicable to such Member for any proper purpose reasonably related to such Member's interest as a Member of the Company, at any reasonable time during regular business hours upon reasonable written notice to the Board of Managers. Any information obtained by a Member pursuant to this <u>Section 6.01</u> shall be subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in <u>Section 12.01</u>.

## Section 6.02 <u>Tax Returns</u>. The Board of Managers, at the expense of the Company, shall endeavor to cause the preparation and timely filing (including extensions) of all tax returns required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Code as well as all other required tax returns in each jurisdiction in which the Company owns property or does business.

------

## Section 6.03 <u>Withholding Tax Payments and Obligations</u>. In the event that withholding taxes are paid or required to be paid in respect of amounts earned or distributed by the Company, or the Company is required by Law to make tax payments (including any interest or penalties thereon or additions thereto) on behalf of or with respect to any Member, such payments or obligations shall be treated as follows:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Payments by the Company</u>. The Company is authorized to withhold from any payment made to, or any distributive share of, a Member any taxes and any associated interest or penalties required by Law to be withheld or paid by the Company that are attributable (as reasonably determined by the Board of Managers) to such Member. If, and to the extent, the Company is required to make any such tax payments with respect to any distribution to a Member, then at the election of the Company, either (i) such Member's proportionate share of such distribution shall be reduced by the amount of such tax payments (which tax payments shall be treated, subject to <u>Section 6.03(c)</u>, as a distribution to such Member pursuant to Section 5.01 or <u>Section 5.02</u>, as the case may be), or (ii) such Member shall pay to the Company prior to such distribution an amount of cash equal to such tax payments (which payment of cash shall not be deemed a Capital Contribution for purposes hereof and shall not reduce mandatory Capital Contributions).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Payments to the Company</u>. If the Company receives proceeds in respect of which a tax has been withheld, including any withholding taxes imposed as a result of a failure by a Member to provide information or take other actions requested by the Board of Managers in order to reduce or eliminate withholding, the Company shall be treated as having received cash in an amount equal to such proceeds *plus* the amount of such withheld tax (and the portion of the withholding tax allocable to such Member shall be treated, subject to <u>Section 6.03(c)</u>, as a distribution to such Member pursuant to Section 5.01 or <u>Section 5.02</u>, as the case may be).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Certain Taxes Treated as Demand Loans</u>. Any taxes withheld or paid by the Company pursuant to <u>Section 6.03(a)</u>, but not reimbursed as provided for under Section 6.03(a)(ii), shall be treated as if distributed to the relevant Member to the extent an amount equal to such withheld taxes would then be distributable to such Member and, to the extent taxes are withheld or paid by the Company in excess of such distributable amounts, as a demand loan payable by the Member to the Company with interest at the lesser of (i) the Prime Rate in effect from time to time plus two percent (2%), compounded quarterly, and (ii) the highest rate per annum permitted by Law. The Board of Managers may, in its discretion, either (x) demand payment of the principal and accrued interest on such demand loan at any time, and enforce payment thereof by legal process, or (y) withhold from one or more distributions or payments to a Member amounts sufficient to satisfy such Member's obligations under any such demand loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Indemnity</u>. In the event that the Company, or the Board of Managers or any Affiliate thereof, becomes liable as a result of a failure to withhold and remit or pay taxes on behalf of or in respect of any Member, then such Member, in addition to and without limiting any indemnities for which such Member may be liable under this <u>Section 6.03</u>, such Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, or the Board of Managers or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in respect of all taxes (not otherwise indemnified or

------

reimbursed pursuant to this Section 6.03), including interest, penalties, and additions to tax, and any expenses incurred in any examination, determination, resolution and payment of such liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Survival</u>. The provisions contained in this <u>Section 6.03</u> shall survive the termination of the Company and the withdrawal of any Member.

## Section 6.04 <u>Other Member Obligations</u>. Promptly upon request, each Member shall provide the Board of Managers with any information related to such Member reasonably necessary to (a) allow the Company to comply with any tax reporting, tax withholding or tax payment obligations of the Company or (b) establish the Company's legal entitlement to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding or any other taxes or similar payments.

## Section 6.05 <u>Tax Treatment</u>. The Company is intended to be and has elected to be classified as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Series A Preferred Units are intended to constitute [\*\*\*] for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Series B Preferred Units are intended to constitute [\*\*\*] for purposes of [\*\*\*] the Code and the Regulations thereunder. None of the Company or any Member shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment in any tax return, filing, or proceeding unless otherwise required by a final determination (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code).

## Section 6.06 <u>Other Tax Matters</u>.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall, as soon as practicable following the date hereof, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Internal Revenue Service has the Company's correct legal entity name reflected on the Internal Revenue Service's files.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Neither Vroom Parent nor the Company shall make or cause to be made an election under Section 382(l)(5)(G) of the Code (or any successor provision) with respect to any "ownership change" of the Company (within the meaning of Section 382 of the Code) nor take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in such an election being made or deemed made.

# ARTICLE VII <u><br>TRANSFERS</u> 

## Section 7.01 <u>Transfer in General</u>.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any Preferred Member (including the Investor Member) may freely Transfer any Preferred Units (including any Common Units issued upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Units) to any Person, subject only to applicable securities Laws.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Until the earlier of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof and (ii) the date each Preferred Unit is redeemed in full pursuant to <u>ARTICLE VIII</u>, any Common Member (including the Vroom Member and its successors) shall not Transfer any equity Securities (including Common Units) of the Company without the prior written consent of the Investor Member. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Common Member experiences a Change of Control, such Change of Control shall be deemed to be a Transfer by such Common Member of equity Securities (including Common Units) of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A permitted Transfer of Units pursuant to <u>Section 7.01</u> shall be effective as of the date of (i) compliance with the conditions to such transfer referred to in this <u>Section 7.01</u> and (ii) admission of the Substituted Member pursuant to <u>Section 7.02</u>. Distributions made before the effective date of such Transfer shall be paid to the transferor, and distributions made after such date shall be paid to the transferee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any Member who effectively Transfers any Units pursuant to this <u>ARTICLE VII</u> shall cease to be a Member with respect to such Units and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Units (it being understood, however, that the applicable provisions of <u>Section 3.12</u>, <u>Section 4.04</u>, <u>Section 4.05</u> and <u>Section 4.07</u> shall continue to inure to such Person's benefit). Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Member who Transfers any Units in the Company from any liability or obligation of such Member to the Company or the other Members with respect to such Units that may exist on the date of such Transfer or that is otherwise specified in the Act and incorporated into this Agreement or for any liability to the Company or any other Person for any breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Member (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in other agreements with the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) To the extent Units have been certificated, each certificate evidencing Units and each certificate issued in exchange for or upon the Transfer of any Units (if such securities remain Units as defined herein after such Transfer) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SPECIFIED IN THE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT, AS MAY BE AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE THE TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES UNTIL SUCH CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER. A COPY OF SUCH CONDITIONS SHALL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE."

------

## Section 7.02 <u>Admission of Members</u>. A Person may be admitted to the Company as a Member (a) in connection with the Transfer of any Units to such Person as permitted under the terms of this Agreement (a " <u>Substituted Member</u> ") or (b) in connection with the issuance of new Units by the Company to an Additional Member, in each case upon executing a counterpart or joinder to this Agreement, accepting and agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions hereof.

## Section 7.03 <u>Transfers in Violation of Agreement</u>. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer in violation of this <u>ARTICLE VII</u> shall be void, and the Company shall not record such purported Transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee as the owner of any Units subject to such purported Transfer.

In the event that any such Series A Preferred Member delivers a Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice to Company, the Company shall be required to redeem such number of Series A Preferred Units as is specified in such Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice, on the applicable Series A Mandatory Redemption Date (the " <u>Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date</u> "), and at a price per Series A Preferred Unit equal to the Liquidation Preference of such Series A Preferred Unit (the " <u>Series A Redemption Price</u> ").

The Company shall provide each Preferred Member with at least thirty (30) Business Days' notice prior to the consummation of any such Change of Control or Fundamental Event.

## Section 8.04 <u>382 Change Transaction</u>.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Contemporaneously with the consummation of a 382 Change Transaction (the "**<u>382 Redemption Closing Date</u>**"), the Company shall redeem each Unit held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates (the "**<u>382 Redemption</u>**"), at a price per Unit equal to (i) in the case of each Series A Preferred Unit, the Series A Redemption Price (or the Early Redemption Price if such 382 Redemption is consummated on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date), (ii) in the case of each Series B Preferred Unit, the Series B Redemption Price (or the Early Redemption Price if such 382 Redemption is consummated on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date), and (iii) in the case of each Common Unit, the Fair Market Value thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Company fails to redeem each Unit held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates on the 382 Redemption Closing Date in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 8.04(a)</u> (a "**<u>382 Redemption Failure</u>**"), then (in addition to any other rights or remedies that the Investor Member and its Affiliates may have under this Agreement or at law or in equity):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) all of the Series B Preferred Units held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates shall, without the payment of any additional consideration, automatically convert into Common Units as set forth in this <u>Section 8.04(b)</u> (a "**<u>Series B Mandatory Conversion</u>**"), unless the Investor Member delivers a written notice to the Company specifying that any such Series B Mandatory Conversion shall not occur.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Any Series B Mandatory Conversion shall be effective contemporaneously with the consummation of the applicable 382 Change Transaction (the "**<u>Mandatory Conversion Time</u>**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) At the Mandatory Conversion Time, all of the Series B Preferred Units held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates shall automatically and without the need for any further action by any Person be converted into a certain number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Units such that, immediately following the Mandatory Conversion Time, the Common Units issued in connection with the Series B Mandatory Conversion account for ninety percent

------

(90%) of the outstanding Common Units of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Units). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conversion of all of the Series B Preferred Units held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates in accordance with <u>Section 3.08(a)(iii)</u> would result in the Investor Member and its Affiliates being issued a greater number of Common Units than that provided for in the immediately preceding sentence, then all of such Series B Preferred Units shall instead convert in accordance with <u>Section 3.08(a)(iii)</u>, with such conversion being effective as of the Mandatory Conversion Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If the Company, the Vroom Member, Vroom Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries are a party to the applicable 382 Change Transaction, such 382 Change Transaction shall not be consummated until such time as all of the Series A Preferred Units held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates are redeemed in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 8.04(a)</u> (and contemporaneously with the consummation of such 382 Change Transaction). If the Company, the Vroom Member, Vroom Parent and their respective Subsidiaries are not a party to the applicable 382 Change Transaction, the Company must redeem all of the Series A Preferred Units held by the Investor Member and its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of <u>Section 8.04(a)</u> promptly following the time that the Company, the Vroom Member, Vroom Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries become aware of the consummation of such 382 Change Transaction.

## Section 8.05 <u>Optional Redemption of Preferred Units</u>. The Company shall have the option (but not the obligation) to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Preferred Units held by all of the Preferred Members (the " <u>Optional Redemption</u> ") by providing an irrevocable written notice to each Preferred Member at any time following the Effective Date (an " <u>Optional Redemption Notice</u> "). In the event the Company delivers an Optional Redemption Notice to each Preferred Member, the Company shall be required to redeem all of the Preferred Units held by all of the Preferred Members within twenty (20) Business Days' of delivery of such Optional Redemption Notice (the " <u>Optional Redemption Closing Date</u> "), and at a price per Preferred Unit equal to (a) if such Optional Redemption is consummated after the Optional Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price (in the case of the Series A Preferred Units being redeemed) or the Series B Redemption Price (in the case of the Series B Preferred Units being redeemed), or (b) if such Optional Redemption is consummated on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date, the Early Redemption Price.

## Section 8.06 <u>Company's Inability to Satisfy Obligations</u>.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligation to complete a Redemption Transaction (other than a 382 Redemption) under this <u>ARTICLE VIII</u> may be delayed upon resolution of the Board of Managers if, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Board of Managers, such Redemption Transaction (other than a 382 Redemption) would violate any applicable Law to which the Company is subject. To the extent that the Board of Managers delays any Redemption Transaction (other than a 382 Redemption) pursuant to this <u>Section 8.06(a)</u>, (i) the Company shall be required to effect such Redemption Transaction (other than a 382 Redemption) immediately after the reasons

------

for such delay have ceased, (ii) the Company shall not be entitled to make any distributions (other than Preferred Accruing Distributions) to any Member until such Redemption Transaction (other than a 382 Redemption) has been consummated, and (iii) such Member shall be paid interest on such delayed redemption payment at the Default Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the provisions of <u>Section 8.06(a)</u> limit the Company's redemption of any Preferred Units, (i) the time periods in which the Company and each Preferred Member must deliver any notice or consummate any transaction, in each case, under this <u>ARTICLE VIII</u> shall similarly be tolled and (ii) each Preferred Member may elect to withdraw its Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice, Series B Mandatory Redemption Notice or CoC Redemption Notice (as applicable), in which case such Preferred Member shall be entitled to re-exercise its rights in full again commencing on the next applicable redemption date pursuant to this <u>Section 8.06</u>.

## Section 8.08 <u>Series B Participation Right</u>.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Before (and, in any event, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to) any Redemption Closing Date (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date), the Board of Managers, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall determine (i) the Fair Market Value of the Initial Vroom Units as of the date that the applicable Redemption Notice (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice) is delivered, and (ii) the implied IRR of such Initial Vroom Units since the Effective Date, including any distributions paid on the Initial Vroom Units since the Effective Date (the "**<u>Implied IRR</u>**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of this <u>Section 8.08</u>, the [\*\*\*]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Promptly upon the determination of the Fair Market Value of the Initial Vroom Units and the Implied IRR (and, in any event, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to any Redemption Closing Date (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date)), the Board of Managers shall provide written notice to each Series B Preferred Member (including the Investor Member) who has delivered or received a Redemption Notice (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Notice) (the "**<u>Participation Members</u>**") of such Fair Market Value and Implied IRR, including any applicable financial data and other materials used in such determination. If a majority in interest of such

------

Participation Members (based on the number of Series B Preferred Units held by such Participation Members) dispute such determination and deliver to the Board of Managers a written notice of objection within ten (10) Business Days after the Board of Managers delivers its determination, the Company and such Participation Members will attempt in good faith to mutually agree upon such Fair Market Value and Implied IRR, but in the event that the parties are unable to agree within a ten (10) Business Day period (or such longer period as the parties may agree), the Fair Market Value and Implied IRR will be conclusively determined by an Independent Appraiser. Such Participation Members, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of the costs of the Independent Appraiser, unless otherwise agreed in writing by such parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the applicable Redemption Closing Date (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date) and, in the case of a 382 Redemption, the consummation of the 382 Change Transaction, in each case, shall be delayed until the Fair Market Value and Implied IRR is definitively determined in accordance with this <u>Section 8.08(c)</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>that</u>, the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price and/or Early Redemption Price (as applicable) shall reflect the actual Liquidation Preference and/or the actual Special Redemption Price (as applicable) of the Series A Preferred Units and/or Series B Preferred Units as of the actual Redemption Closing Date (other than a Series A Mandatory Redemption Closing Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Implied IRR exceeds [\*\*\*]

## Section 8.09 <u>No Creditor Rights</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, but subject to <u>Section 8.04(b)</u>, in the event that the Company fails to redeem any Series B Preferred Units as provided in this Agreement, the Series B Preferred Members shall not have any rights as creditors with respect to such unredeemed Series B Preferred Units or any unpaid Series B Redemption Price or Early Redemption Price (as applicable). The rights of such Series B Preferred Members shall be limited to those rights expressly set forth in this Agreement as Members, including the right to convert such Series B Preferred Units into Common Units pursuant to <u>Section 3.08</u> or <u>Section 8.04(b)</u>.

# ARTICLE XII <u><br>COVENANTS</u> 

## Section 12.01 <u>Confidentiality</u>. The Members acknowledge that they may, as a result of their ownership of Units or their designees' service on the Board of Managers (if applicable), receive information from or regarding the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the other Members, or Affiliates of any of the foregoing in the nature of trade secrets or that otherwise is confidential, the release of which may be damaging to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries (including Persons with whom they may conduct business), the other Members, or Affiliates of any of the foregoing. Each Member shall hold in confidence, and not use for any purpose other than monitoring its investment in the Company, any information it receives regarding the Company, any of its Subsidiaries (including Persons with whom they may conduct business), the other Members, or Affiliates of any of the foregoing that is identified as, or would reasonably be expected to be, confidential, and shall not disclose it to any Person (other than another Member) except for disclosures (a) compelled by Law or required or requested by subpoena or request from a court, regulator or a stock exchange (provided, however, that the Member shall notify the Company or the Member affected by such disclosure, as applicable, promptly and prior to making such disclosure, if practicable, and shall disclose only that portion of such information required to be disclosed and shall use all reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality thereof), (b) to Affiliates, advisers (including legal counsel and accountants), agents, equityholders, directors, employees, members, shareholders, partners or representatives of the Member (provided, however, that such Affiliates, advisors, or representatives are informed of the confidential nature of such information, and that the disclosing Member remains liable for any breach by its Affiliates, advisors and/or representatives), (c) of information that the Member also has received from a source independent of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any other Member, or Affiliates of any of the foregoing, as applicable, that the Member reasonably believes obtained that information without breach of any obligation of confidentiality, (d) to any Person to which such Member Transfers or may Transfer any of its Units in compliance with this Agreement so long as the transferor first obtains a confidentiality agreement executed by the proposed transferee, at least as protective as this <u>Section 12.01</u>, (e) permitted by the Company or Member affected by such disclosure, as applicable, or (f) by any Member that is a private equity fund, hedge fund or institutional investor to its investors, potential investors, members, partners, financing sources or

------

## Affiliates or otherwise as reasonably required in connection with ordinary course fundraising, marketing, information, transactional or other reporting activities, so long as any recipient is made aware of the confidentiality nature of such information and subject to substantially similar confidentiality requirements. The Members agree that breach of the provisions of this <u>Section 12.01</u> may cause irreparable injury to the Company or the other Members for which monetary damages (or other remedy at law) are inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply with such provisions and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company's and each other Member's business and the confidential nature of the information described in this <u>Section 12.01</u>. Accordingly, the Members agree that the provisions of this <u>Section 12.01</u> may be enforced by specific performance, injunction or other equitable relief. The Company, other Members' and their Affiliates' right to seek specific performance, injunction or other equitable relief pursuant to this <u>Section 12.01</u> will be in addition to any other remedies they may have at law or in equity. No waiver of any violation of this Agreement will be implied from any failure by the Company, other Members or their Affiliates to take action under this <u>Section 12.01</u>.

## Section 12.02 <u>Residual Interests</u>.

## Section 12.03 <u>Regulatory Compliance</u>. The Company shall not take, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to take, any action (or omit to take any action) that would cause the Investor Member to be in violation of any applicable Laws or regulations by reason of the Investor Member's ownership of the Preferred Units or any other Securities of the Company.
