Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

On March 30, 2026, Sysco Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("<u>Sysco</u>"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>") with JRD Unico, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>JRD</u>"), Warehouse Realty, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("<u>Warehouse Realty</u>", together with JRD, known as "<u>Jetro Restaurant Depot</u>"), New Slider Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Sysco ("<u>HoldCo</u>"), Slider Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo ("<u>Merger Sub 1</u>"), Slider Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo ("<u>Merger Sub 2</u>"), Slider Merger Sub 3, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo ("<u>Merger Sub 3</u>"), and a holder representative (the "<u>Holder Representative</u>"), solely in its capacity as the initial Holder Representative (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Sysco will acquire JRD and Warehouse Realty in a cash and stock transaction through: the merger of Merger Sub 1 with and into Sysco with Sysco surviving ("<u>Sysco Merger</u>"), the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into JRD, with JRD surviving (the "<u>OpCo Merger</u>"), and the merger of Merger Sub 3 with and into Warehouse Realty, with Warehouse Realty surviving (the "<u>PropCo Merger</u>", and collectively with the OpCo Merger and Sysco Merger, the "<u>Mergers</u>"). The board of directors of Sysco has unanimously approved the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the effective time of the Sysco Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Sysco, par value $1.00 per share shall be converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of HoldCo, par value $1.00 per share ("<u>HoldCo Common Stock</u>"). Upon completion of the Mergers, HoldCo Common Stock is expected to be listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange under Sysco's current symbol, "SYY".

The aggregate purchase price paid by Sysco will consist of $21.6 billion in cash, subject to customary adjustments, and 91.5 million shares of HoldCo Common Stock (the "<u>Common Stock Consideration</u>").

After giving effect to the Mergers, JRD's and Warehouse Realty's equityholders are expected to hold approximately 16% of the outstanding HoldCo Common Stock in the aggregate.

The completion of the Mergers is subject to customary conditions, including, without limitation, (1) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (2) the absence of any law or injunction that prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (3) the Form S-4 relating to the issuance of HoldCo Common Stock being declared effective by the SEC, if required, (4) the authorization for listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the HoldCo Common Stock to be issued as Common Stock Consideration, (5) with respect to each party, (a) the accuracy of the other party's representations and warranties, subject to specified materiality qualifications, and (b) compliance by the other party with its covenants in the Merger Agreement in all material respects, and (6) the receipt by each party of a customary tax opinion with respect to the Mergers.

The Merger Agreement generally requires each party to use reasonable best efforts to obtain required regulatory approvals, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights, including the right of either party to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger has not occurred by September 30, 2027, subject to one automatic extension for six months (in certain circumstances to obtain required regulatory approval). If the Merger Agreement is terminated due to a failure to obtain required antitrust approvals, in certain circumstances Sysco will be required to pay Holder Representative a termination fee of $1.164 billion.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of Sysco, HoldCo, JRD, Warehouse Realty and the Merger Subs. Additionally, the Merger Agreement provides for customary pre-closing covenants of

Sysco, HoldCo, the Merger Subs, JRD, and Warehouse Realty, including covenants requiring each party to conduct its respective business in the ordinary course and refrain from taking certain specified actions without the other party's consent during the pendency of the Mergers, in each case, subject to specified exceptions.

The Merger Agreement provides that, during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement until the effective time of the OpCo Merger, each of JRD and Warehouse Realty will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, to provide non-public information to third parties and to engage in discussions with third parties regarding competing proposals.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Merger Agreement has been included as an exhibit hereto solely to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to be a source of financial, business or operational information about Sysco, HoldCo, JRD, Warehouse Realty or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement are made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement and are made as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of the parties; may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Merger Agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Investors and security holders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Sysco, HoldCo, JRD, Warehouse Realty or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures.

Stockholders Agreement

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, HoldCo entered into a stockholders agreement (the "<u>Stockholders Agreement</u>") with the majority stockholder of Jetro Restaurant Depot (the "<u>Majority JRD Holder</u>"), certain funds affiliated with Leonard Green & Partners, L.P. ("<u>LGP</u>"), certain affiliates of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority ("<u>PF</u>") and certain other parties thereto. The Stockholders Agreement sets forth certain governance arrangements and contains various provisions relating to, among other things, board representation, the acquisition of additional equity interests in HoldCo, transfer restrictions, voting arrangements, and registration rights.

Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, the Majority JRD Holder will be entitled to designate two directors for nomination to HoldCo's board of directors if they beneficially own at least 8% of the outstanding shares of the HoldCo Common Stock, or one director if they beneficially own at least 5% of the outstanding shares of HoldCo Common Stock, in each case subject to certain qualification requirements for such directors.

For as long as the Majority JRD Holder has the right to designate a director, the Majority JRD Holder will be required to vote its shares of HoldCo Common Stock in favor of the nomination of directors of HoldCo nominated by the HoldCo board and any Holdco board proposal to adopt or amend a HoldCo equity compensation plan, any "say-on-pay" proposal, any "say-on-frequency" proposal or any "say-on-golden-parachute" proposal, and against any stockholder actions proposed by activists or stockholder proposals that the HoldCo board recommends against (excluding certain matters). The initial directors that will be appointed by the Majority JRD Holder will be Sir Bradley Fried and Stanley Fleishman.

The Stockholders Agreement generally restricts (a) any transfers by the Majority JRD Holder of shares of HoldCo Common Stock received in the Mergers for an initial period of 18 months, with 50% of such shares released from the lock-up after 18-months, and the remaining 50% of such shares released from the lock-up after 24 months, and (b) any transfers by LGP and PF of shares of HoldCo Common Stock received in the Mergers for 6 months, in each case, with certain limited exceptions. Following the applicable lock-up period, each of Majority JRD Holder and

LGP, to the extent they hold Registrable Securities (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement) will be granted customary registration rights.

The Stockholders Agreement contains a customary standstill provision applicable to the Majority JRD Holder and certain other individuals, which is effective until the Majority JRD Holder no longer has any rights to designate directors on the HoldCo board. Additionally, the Majority JRD Holder and certain other individuals have agreed to certain non-competition and non-solicitation provisions, each effective until three years after the closing of the Mergers. HoldCo, on the one hand, and the Majority JRD Holder, such individuals and LGP, on the other hand, have agreed to certain mutual non-disparagement provisions, effective for the duration of the standstill.

The Stockholders Agreement will terminate with respect to each stockholder party thereto on the first date that it no longer holds any shares of HoldCo Common Stock or Registrable Securities.

The foregoing description of the Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stockholders Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Employee Stockholder Letter Agreements

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, HoldCo and each of the equityholders of JRD and Warehouse Realty who are employees of Jetro Restaurant Depot entered into a letter agreement (the "<u>Letter Agreements</u>"). The employee stockholders have agreed to certain non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions, each generally on the same terms as the Majority JRD Holder and certain other individuals and effective until three years after the closing of the Mergers.

Commitment Letter

The cash portion of the purchase price, as well as any refinancing of Jetro Restaurant Depot's indebtedness, is expected to be financed with a combination of $21 billion of new debt and hybrid debt, and $1 billion of cash on hand, equity or equity-linked securities. Sysco executed a commitment letter, dated March 30, 2026, with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, New York Branch and TD Securities (USA) LLC, that provides a commitment, subject to satisfaction of standard conditions, for a $22 billion senior unsecured 364-day bridge loan facility. Sysco intends to use the proceeds of this financing to fund the cash portion of the purchase price and to refinance, repay or redeem certain of Jetro Restaurant Depot's outstanding indebtedness and pay related fees and expenses.

Forward-looking statements are not historical facts. They are made based on management's current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon Sysco and its consolidated subsidiaries. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about the expected timing and completion of the proposed transaction, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction (including synergies), and plans and expectations for the combined company, including regarding its results of operations and financial conditions, leadership composition, share repurchases, dividend level, credit ratings and leverage ratio, as well as statements regarding Sysco's future financial performance and results, including its expectations regarding its future growth, including growth in sales and earnings per share, and other statements that are not historical facts. All such forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are based upon current plans, estimates, expectations and ambitions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control of the parties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements. Key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of either or both parties to terminate the merger agreement; the risk that regulatory approvals may not be obtained or other closing conditions may not be satisfied in a timely manner or at all, as well as the risk that regulatory approvals are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the risk of other delays in closing the transaction; the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits and projected synergies of the transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; unforeseen or unknown liabilities; Sysco's ability to raise debt on favorable terms or at all; risks related to business disruptions from the proposed transaction that may harm the business or current plans and operations of either or both parties, including disruption of management time from ongoing business operations; credit ratings decline of the combined company following the proposed transaction; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against New Slider Holdco, Inc., Sysco or their directors; risks related to difficulties, inabilities or delays in integrating the parties' businesses; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the market price of the common stock of Sysco; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of either or both parties to retain and hire key personnel or maintain business, contractual or operational relationships, on the parties' operating results and businesses generally; certain restrictions during the pendency of the transaction that may impact Sysco's and Jetro Restaurant Depot's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; and the effects of industry, market, economic, political or regulatory conditions outside of the parties' control, as well as the impact of geopolitical, economic and market conditions and developments, including changes in global trade policies and tariffs; risks related to Sysco's business initiatives; periods of significant or prolonged inflation or deflation and their impact on Sysco's product costs and profitability generally; risks related to Sysco's efforts to implement its transformation initiatives and meet its other long-term strategic objectives; risk of interruption of supplies and increase in product costs; risks related to changes in consumer eating habits; and the impact of natural disasters or adverse weather conditions, public health crises, adverse publicity or lack of confidence in Sysco's products, and product liability claims. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any of the forward-looking statements contained herein. For more information on these risks and other concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed or forecasted, see Sysco's Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise may be required by law.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Maverick OpCo Holder and Maverick PropCo Holder who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of HoldCo Common Stock (after taking into account all Equity Interests of each of Maverick OpCo and Maverick PropCo exchanged by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fractional amount multiplied by the Closing Parent Common Stock Price.

&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>Closing Statement</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) as to the Maverick OpCo Acquired Companies, setting forth New Slider HoldCo's good faith determination, for the Maverick OpCo Acquired Companies, of (A) Maverick OpCo Closing Indebtedness, (B) Maverick OpCo Transaction Expenses, (C) Maverick OpCo Net Working Capital, (D) Maverick OpCo Closing Cash, and (E) the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount, in each case determined in accordance with the Balance Sheet Rules, together with reasonable supporting documentation for such calculations; 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;(b) <u>Dispute Resolution</u>. Within sixty (60) days after Holder Representative's receipt of the Closing Statement, Holder Representative may deliver to New Slider HoldCo a written statement specifying any objections thereto in reasonable detail with reasonable supporting documentation for such objections (an "<u>Objections Statement</u>"). If Holder Representative does not deliver an Objections Statement within such 60-day period, then the Closing Statement shall become final and binding upon all parties. If Holder Representative delivers an Objections Statement within such 60-day period, then Holder Representative and New Slider HoldCo shall negotiate in good faith for 30 days following New Slider HoldCo's receipt of such Objections Statement to resolve such objections. Any such objections that Parent and Holder Representative are unable to resolve during such 30-day period is referred to as a "<u>Dispute</u>". After such 30-day period, any matter set forth in the Closing Statement that is not a Dispute shall become final and binding upon all parties. If New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative are unable to resolve all objections during such 30-day period, then any Disputes, and only such Disputes, shall be submitted promptly by New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative to the dispute resolution practice of Deloitte LLP, or if Deloitte LLP declines the engagement, an independent accounting firm of national reputation mutually acceptable to New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative (the "<u>Accounting Firm</u>"). The Accounting Firm shall act as a neutral expert and not as an arbitrator and will resolve only the disputed items that have

been submitted to it pursuant to this <u>Section 2.12(b)</u> solely in accordance with the procedures (including any defined terms and the Balance Sheet Rules) set forth in this Agreement. No party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives will engage in any *ex parte* communication with the Accounting Firm at any time with respect to any Dispute. The Accounting Firm shall be instructed to resolve any Disputes solely in accordance with the terms and procedures (including any defined terms and the Balance Sheet Rules) of this Agreement within 30 days after its appointment. The resolution of such Disputes by the Accounting Firm (i) shall be set forth in writing, (ii) shall be within the range of dispute between Parent and Holder Representative, (iii) shall constitute an arbitral award and (iv) shall be conclusive and binding upon all the parties, absent manifest error, upon which a judgment may be rendered by a court having proper jurisdiction thereover. Upon delivery of such resolution, the Closing Statement, as modified in accordance with such resolution, shall become final and binding upon all parties. New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative agree that the procedures set forth in this <u>Section 2.12(b)</u> for resolving disputes with respect to the Closing Statement shall, except in the case of actual common law fraud under Delaware law, be the sole and exclusive method for resolving any such disputes; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that this provision shall not prohibit either party from instituting litigation to enforce any final determination of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount and the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this <u>Section 2.12(b)</u> in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with <u>Section 8.4</u>. The substance of the Accounting Firm's determination shall not be subject to review or appeal, absent a showing of manifest error. It is the intent of the parties to have any final determination of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount and the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount by the Accounting Firm proceed in an expeditious manner; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any deadline or time period contained herein may be extended or modified by the written agreement of New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative and the parties agree that the failure of the Accounting Firm to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Accounting Firm which otherwise conforms to the terms of this <u>Section 2.12(b)</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;(c) <u>Accounting Firm Expenses</u>. The terms of appointment and engagement of the Accounting Firm shall be as reasonably agreed upon between the Holder Representative and New Slider HoldCo, and any associated engagement fees shall initially be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Holder Representative and fifty percent (50%) by New Slider HoldCo; provided however, that such fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall ultimately be allocated between New Slider HoldCo, on the one hand, and Maverick OpCo (as to the Maverick OpCo portion of the Closing Statement) or Maverick PropCo (as to the Maverick PropCo portion of the Closing Statement), on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the Disputes not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party. For example, if Holder Representative claims that the appropriate adjustments are $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Parent and if the Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the Dispute by awarding to Holder Representative $300 of the $1,000 contested, then the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be allocated 30% (i.e., 300 ÷ 1,000) to Parent and 70% (i.e., 700 ÷ 1,000) to the Holder Representative.

&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>Final Adjustment Amounts</u>. As used herein, "<u>Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount</u>" and "<u>Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount</u>", means, (i) if Holder Representative fails to deliver an Objections Statement as to the Closing Statement in accordance

with <u>Section 2.12(b)</u>, the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount (in the case of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount) and the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount (in the case of the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount) set forth in the Closing Statement or (ii) if the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount and/or the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount is resolved by New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative or by submission of any Disputes to the Accounting Firm, as contemplated by <u>Section 2.12(b)</u>, the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount (in the case of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount) and the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount (in the case of the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount), each as so resolved.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) If the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount is:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) greater than the Maverick OpCo Estimated Adjustment Amount (any such excess, the "<u>Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount</u>"), then promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount): (A) New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Maverick OpCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick OpCo Ownership Percentage) the funds from the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account to an account or accounts designated by Holder Representative in writing; and (B) New Slider HoldCo shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Maverick OpCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick OpCo Ownership Percentage), the Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount; provided that Parent shall have no liability to the Maverick OpCo Holders or the Holder Representative in excess of the Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount Cap for any disputes related to the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount, including in respect of any Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, including in the circumstances where the Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount is an amount in excess of the Maverick OpCo Holders Adjustment Amount Cap;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) less than the Maverick OpCo Estimated Adjustment Amount (any such shortfall, the "<u>Opco/Parent Adjustment Amount</u>"), then promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount), New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to New Slider HoldCo an amount equal to the lesser of the amount in the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account and the OpCo/Parent Adjustment Amount; <u>provided</u> that if the amount then held in the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account exceeds the Opco/Parent Adjustment Amount, such joint release notice shall also direct the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Maverick OpCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick OpCo Ownership Percentage) the amount of such excess. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 2.12(d)(iii), the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Funds (together with any amounts available from the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(iii)) shall be the sole and exclusive recourse available to Parent for any disputes related to the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount including in respect of any Opco/Parent Adjustment Amount payable to New Slider HoldCo pursuant to this Agreement and the Maverick OpCo Holders shall have no liability in respect thereof in excess of available Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Funds (and any amounts available from the Maverick PropCo

Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(iii)), including in the circumstances where the Opco/Parent Adjustment Amount is an amount in excess of the available Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Funds. All such payments required to be made pursuant to this <u>Section 2.12(d)(i)(2)</u> shall be made promptly by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Parent or Holder Representative, as applicable, in writing; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) equal to the Maverick OpCo Estimated Adjustment Amount, then Parent and Holder Representative shall promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick OpCo Adjustment Amount) deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to Maverick OpCo Holders) the amount then held in the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account to an account or accounts designated by Holder Representative in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) If the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount is:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) greater than the Maverick PropCo Estimated Adjustment Amount (any such excess, the "<u>Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount</u>"), then promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount): (A) New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick PropCo Ownership Percentage) the funds from the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account to an account or accounts designated by Holder Representative in writing; and (B) New Slider HoldCo shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick PropCo Ownership Percentage), the Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount; provided that Parent shall have no liability to the Maverick PropCo Holders or the Holder Representative in excess of the Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount Cap for any disputes related to the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount, including in respect of any Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, including in the circumstances where the Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount is an amount in excess of the Maverick PropCo Holders Adjustment Amount Cap;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) less than the Maverick PropCo Estimated Adjustment Amount (any such shortfall, the "<u>PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount</u>"), then promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount), New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to New Slider HoldCo an amount equal to the lesser of the amount in the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account and the PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount; <u>provided</u> that if the amount then held in the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account exceeds the PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount, such joint release notice shall also direct the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders in accordance with the Pro Rata Maverick PropCo Ownership Percentage) the amount of such excess. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 2.12(d)(iii), the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Funds (together

with any amounts available from the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(iii)) shall be the sole and exclusive recourse available to New Slider HoldCo and Parent for any disputes related to the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount including in respect of any PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount payable to New Slider HoldCo pursuant to this Agreement and the Maverick PropCo Holders shall have no liability in respect thereof in excess of available Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Funds (and any amounts available from the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.12(d)(iii)), including in the circumstances where the PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount is an amount in excess of the available Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) equal to the Maverick PropCo Estimated Adjustment Amount, then Parent and Holder Representative shall promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days following the determination of the Final Maverick PropCo Adjustment Amount) deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to Holder Representative (for distribution to Class A Maverick PropCo Holders) the amount then held in the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account to an account or accounts designated by Holder Representative in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 the OpCo/Parent Adjustment Amount exceeds the amount then held in the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account (such excess, the "OpCo Escrow Shortfall"), New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to New Slider HoldCo from the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the OpCo Escrow Shortfall and (B) the total amount then held in the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account. If the PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount exceeds the amount then held in the Maverick PropCo Adjustment Escrow Account (such excess, the "<u>PropCo Escrow Shortfall</u>"), New Slider HoldCo and Holder Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint release notice directing the Escrow Agent to release to New Slider HoldCo from the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the PropCo Escrow Shortfall and (B) the total amount then held in the Maverick OpCo Adjustment Escrow Account. Any amounts released from an Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 2.12(d)(iii) shall reduce the funds available in such Adjustment Escrow Account for purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) above, and in no event shall the aggregate amounts released to New Slider HoldCo from both Adjustment Escrow Accounts pursuant to this Section 2.12(d) exceed the sum of the OpCo/Parent Adjustment Amount and the PropCo/Parent Adjustment Amount.

&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) Following the date of this Agreement, during the Interim Period, the Maverick TopCos shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents required pursuant to the Maverick Material Contracts identified on <u>Section 5.5(b)</u> of the Maverick Disclosure Letter in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Maverick TopCos in such efforts.

&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) Each of the Maverick TopCos and Parent will, at the time determined by the Parent (but in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days from the date of this Agreement), file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "<u>FTC</u>") and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice (the "<u>DOJ</u>") the notification and report forms required for the transactions contemplated hereby, and subsequent to such filings, Parent and the Maverick TopCos will provide any supplemental information or documents that may be requested in connection therewith pursuant to the HSR Act, which notification and report forms

Each of Parent and the Maverick TopCos will promptly furnish to the other (x) all necessary information as the other may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of any filing or submission pursuant to the HSR Act and (y) copies of all written communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance of any oral communication) with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall further provide the other party with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with all written communications (including any advocacy, analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of a party) with a Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions and regarding the Competition Laws; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that Parent or the Maverick TopCos may redact discussions of the transaction value and reasonably designate applicable materials as for review by the other's outside counsel only. Parent and the Maverick TopCos will consult with one another prior to any communications or meetings, whether by telephone, videoconference or in person, with the staff of a Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Parent and the Maverick TopCos will have the right to have a representative present at any such meeting to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority and reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parent shall, subject to this <u>Section 5.5</u>, have control and lead (subject to consultation with the Maverick TopCos in good faith) all communications, negotiations, timing decisions, and strategy on behalf of the parties relating to any necessary clearance, consents, approvals, or waiting period expirations or terminations pursuant to any Competition Laws and any litigation matters pertaining to Competition Laws, including taking the lead in connection with any filings, submissions and communications with or to any Governmental Authority in connection therewith; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no party shall stay, toll, or extend any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act (other than pulling and refiling a notification and report form once) or any other applicable Competition Law or enter into a timing agreement (or any other agreement not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby) with any Governmental Authority without consulting with and obtaining the prior written consent (email being sufficient, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) of the other parties hereto.

&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 parties shall (i) respond as promptly as practicable (after consultation with the other party) to any inquiries or requests for documentation or information or any request for additional information or documentary material pursuant to the HSR Act received from the FTC or the DOJ and to all inquiries and requests received from any other Governmental Authority in connection with Competition Law matters, and (ii) use their reasonable best efforts to resolve objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Competition Laws and to cause any applicable waiting periods, approvals or other requirements under the HSR Act and all other Competition Laws to terminate or expire or be obtained as promptly as possible, and in any event prior to the Termination Date, in each case subject to the limitations set forth in this <u>Section 5.5</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;(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with the efforts referenced in this <u>Section 5.5</u>, each party to this Agreement shall: (i) cooperate fully with the other parties hereto, shall execute and deliver such further documents, certificates, agreements and instruments and shall take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by

any other party hereto to evidence or reflect the Mergers (including the execution and delivery of all documents, certificates, agreements and instruments reasonably necessary for all filings hereunder); (ii) use reasonable best efforts to give all notices (if any) required to be made and given by such party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) use reasonable best efforts to obtain each approval, consent, ratification, permission, expiration or termination of any waiting period, waiver or authorization required to be obtained by such party in connection with the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iv) use reasonable best efforts to contest and lift any restraint, injunction or other legal bar to the Mergers. Parent and the Maverick TopCos acknowledge and agree that their obligation to use reasonable best efforts includes (A) negotiating, committing to and effecting by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, hold separate, license or other disposition of any assets, products, product lines, properties or services or businesses of Parent or the Acquired Companies necessary to eliminate each and every impediment to close the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as possible, and in any event prior to the Termination Date or (B) negotiating, committing to and effecting (by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise) any limitation on Parent's or the Acquired Companies' freedom of action with respect to, and otherwise proposing, proffering and agreeing to any other requirement, obligation, condition, limitation or restriction on, any of the businesses, product lines or assets of any Acquired Company (such actions, the "<u>Remedy Actions</u>"); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary neither Parent, nor any Merger Sub nor any of their Affiliates shall be required to proffer, offer, commit to, consent to or agree to or effect any Remedy Action with respect to (x) any assets, products, product lines, properties, services or businesses or portions thereof of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing (other than the businesses or assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries set forth on <u>Section 5.5(e)(x)</u> of the Maverick Disclosure Letter) or (y) any assets, products, product lines, properties, services or businesses or portions thereof of the Acquired Companies if, in the case of this clause (y), any such Remedy Action would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Burdensome Condition. For the purposes of this Agreement, "<u>Burdensome Condition</u>" has the meaning set forth in Section 5.5(e) of the Maverick Disclosure Letter. If requested by Parent, the Maverick TopCos will agree (and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to agree) to any action contemplated by this <u>Section 5.5</u>, <u>provided</u> that any such agreement or action is conditioned on the consummation of the Mergers. The foregoing agreement in this section is made solely to facilitate the closing of the Mergers and does not constitute a representation or admission that the Mergers, if consummated without any modification, would violate any Competition Laws or that agreeing to the divestitures, hold separate conditions or other restrictions permitted herein or suggested by any Person or authority acting under any Competition Law would not be harmful to the parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Parent's and the Maverick TopCos' obligations under this <u>Section 5.5</u> shall include the obligation to cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to defend any actions, whether judicial or administrative, challenging the consummation of the Mergers or the other Transactions, including any Litigation under the HSR Act or pursuant to federal or state antitrust laws, whether by a Governmental Authority or a private party. The parties shall take reasonable efforts to share information protected from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, joint defense privilege or any other privilege pursuant to this section so as to preserve any applicable 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;(g) Without limiting the foregoing, during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and the Parent Merger Effective Time, Parent shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) merge or consolidate with any other Person or acquire any stock or assets of any other Person or effect any business combination, recapitalization or other transaction (other than the Mergers) or agree or propose to do any of the foregoing if such action would reasonably be expected to (i) materially delay or prevent the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in <u>Section 6.3</u> or <u>Section 7.3</u> or (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering, or materially increase the risk of not being able to remove or successfully challenge, any permanent, preliminary or temporary injunction or other order, decree, decision, determination or judgment that would materially delay, restrain, prevent, enjoin or otherwise prohibit consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

asserted or claimed at any point prior to, at or after the Parent Merger Effective Time, including any such matter arising under any claim with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and New Slider HoldCo and Parent shall cause the Surviving OpCo Company and the Surviving PropCo Company to, also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted to do so under applicable Law or the Organizational Documents of the applicable Acquired Company in effect as of the date of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that any Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by final adjudication that such Person is not entitled to indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Parent, New Slider HoldCo, the Surviving Maverick Companies nor any of their respective Affiliates will settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or otherwise seek the termination of, any Litigation for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Party pursuant to this <u>Section 5.11</u> unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of all Indemnified Parties from any and all liability arising out of such Litigation.

&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 a period of six (6) years following the Parent Merger Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving PropCo Company, the Surviving OpCo Company and their respective Subsidiaries to, cause (i) any rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or exculpation now existing in favor of the Indemnified Parties as provided in their respective organizational documents or indemnification agreements, in effect as of the date of this Agreement and that have been made available to Parent prior to the date hereof, with respect to any matter occurring at or prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time (including the Mergers) and (ii) any indemnification or other similar agreements of Acquired Companies in effect as of the date of this Agreement that have been made available to Parent prior to the date hereof to survive the Mergers and continue in full force and effect. During such period, Parent will not, and will not permit the Surviving Maverick Companies or any of their Subsidiaries to, amend, repeal or modify any provision in the Surviving PropCo Company's, Surviving OpCo Company's or any of their Subsidiaries' Organizational Documents relating to the exculpation or indemnification of the Indemnified Parties as in effect in the Maverick TopCos or any of their Subsidiaries' Organizational Documents immediately prior to the Parent Merger Effective 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;(c) Parent shall cause the Surviving PropCo Company or Surviving OpCo Company and their Subsidiaries to maintain in effect for six (6) years from the Closing Date directors' and officers' liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Acquired Companies' directors' and officers' liability insurance for events occurring at or prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time ("<u>D&O Insurance</u>") on terms not less favorable than such existing insurance coverage; <u>provided</u> that the Surviving PropCo Company, the Surviving OpCo Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall not be required, and Parent shall not be required to cause the Surviving PropCo Company, the Surviving OpCo Company and their respective Subsidiaries, to pay for the D&O Insurance in an annual amount in excess of three

hundred percent (300%) of the annual premium currently paid as of the date hereof by the Acquired Companies for such insurance; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, Parent or the Surviving PropCo Company or the Surviving OpCo Company shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such maximum amount. The Acquired Companies shall cause to be put in place "tail" insurance policies ("<u>Runoff D&O Insurance</u>"), the cost of which shall be borne equally by Parent, on the one hand, and the Maverick TopCos, on the other hand, with a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six (6) years from the Parent Merger Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Acquired Companies' current insurance carrier with respect to directors' and officers' liability insurance in an amount and scope at least as favorable in the aggregate as the Acquired Companies' existing policies with respect to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Parent Merger Effective Time; <u>provided</u> that payment for such insurance coverage provided by such Runoff D&O Insurance shall not exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the current aggregate annual premium currently paid as of the date hereof by the Acquired Companies for such insurance. If the cost of the Runoff D&O Insurance would require an expenditure that exceeds such amount, Parent shall cause the Surviving PropCo Company or Surviving OpCo Company to, obtain policies with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such maximum amount. Any such Runoff D&O Insurance policies will satisfy Parent's obligation under this <u>Section 5.11(c)</u> to provide D&O Insurance; <u>provided</u> that in the event that any claim is brought under such D&O Insurance, the policy shall be maintained until final disposition 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;(d) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to or shall release, waive or impair any rights to directors' and officers' insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Maverick TopCos or any of their Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this <u>Section 5.11</u> is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims under such policies.

&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 provisions of this <u>Section 5.11</u> shall survive consummation of the Mergers, and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and legal representatives. The rights to indemnification and advancement and the other rights provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such a Person is entitled, whether pursuant to applicable Law, contract or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Unless required by applicable Law, this <u>Section 5.11</u> may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Parent Merger Effective Time in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Parties or any of their successors, assigns or heirs without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnified Party.

Section 5.12 <u>Termination of Affiliate Agreements</u>. Effective upon the Parent Merger Effective Time, unless mutually agreed upon by the parties, the Acquired Companies shall cause all Affiliate Agreements to be terminated, without any Liability to the Parent Parties, or on or after the Closing, the Acquired Companies.

Section 5.13 <u>Financing</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;(a) Prior to the Closing, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to (i) arrange, obtain and consummate the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (subject to replacement thereof in accordance with this <u>Section 5.13(a)</u>), (ii) enter into definitive written agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (subject to replacement thereof in accordance with this <u>Section 5.13(a)</u>) (including any "market flex" provisions applicable thereto) or, in Parent's sole discretion, on other terms and conditions than those contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (including any "market flex" provisions applicable thereto), in each case, which such other terms and conditions shall not affect any Prohibited Financing Amendment (as defined below) (with such agreements to be in effect no later than the Closing Date) (such definitive agreements governing the Debt Financing, the "<u>Debt Financing Agreements</u>"), (iii) satisfy on a timely basis all obligations applicable to Parent or the Merger Subs under the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Agreements and consummate the Debt Financing no later than at the Closing and (iv) enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter. Without the prior written consent of Holder Representative, Parent shall not permit any amendment, replacement or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing Agreements, if such amendment, replacement, modification or waiver (A) reduces the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing below the amount, taking into account all other sources of proceeds readily available on the Closing Date, necessary to fund the Required Funding Amount; (B) imposes new or additional conditions, or expands or adversely amends or modifies any of the existing conditions, to the receipt of the Debt Financing; (C) would reasonably be expected to: (I) prevent or materially delay the Closing or (II) make the timely funding of the Debt Financing or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing on or prior to the Closing Date less likely to occur; or (D) materially adversely impacts the ability of Parent and the Merger Subs to enforce their respective rights against the Debt Financing Sources or any other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing Agreements (the limitations set forth in clauses (A) through (D), collectively, the "<u>Prohibited Financing Amendments</u>"). In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable to Parent or the Merger Subs in the manner or from the sources set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, Parent will promptly notify Holder Representative and will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing on terms and conditions no less favorable to Parent and the Merger Subs, taken as a whole, than the terms and conditions as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter (including any "market flex" provisions thereof) or, in Parent's sole discretion, on other terms and conditions, in each case, from the same or alternative sources in an amount sufficient, when added to any portion of the Debt Financing still available, to fund the Required Funding Amount as promptly as practicable (the "<u>Alternative Financing</u>", with any such Alternative Financing being deemed to constitute "Debt Financing", the debt commitment letter with respect thereto being deemed to constitute a "Debt Commitment Letter", the fee letter with respect thereto being deemed to constitute a "Debt Financing Fee Letter" and the definitive documentation with respect thereto being deemed to constitute the "<u>Debt Financing Agreements</u>"); <u>provided</u> that, without the prior written consent of Holder Representative, such Alternative Financing shall not affect any Prohibited Financing Amendments. Parent shall deliver to Holder Representative true and correct copies of the executed debt commitment letter with respect to such Alternative Financing (and the related fee letter, which may be redacted in the manner set forth in <u>Section 4.11</u>) promptly following the

execution thereof.

Disclosure of any fact or item in any section or subsection of the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter with respect to the correspondingly numbered representation, warranty or covenant of the Maverick TopCos or Parent, as applicable, in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been disclosed with respect to every other representation, warranty or covenant of the Maverick TopCos or Parent, as applicable, in this Agreement in respect of which the applicability of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on its face. The inclusion of information in the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material to any of the Acquired Companies or to any of Parent or its Subsidiaries, as applicable. In addition, matters reflected in the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Neither the specifications of any dollar amount in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, or the item so included or other items, are or are not material, and shall not be construed as an admission of liability or responsibility under any Law or in any dispute or controversy. Further, neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Maverick Disclosure Letter or the Parent Disclosure Letter is intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business (except where expressly stated in the relevant representation, warranty or covenant), and shall not be construed as an admission of liability or responsibility under any Law or in any dispute or controversy.

Section 9.18 <u>Severability</u>. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the

final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. 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 to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.19 <u>Construction</u>. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, the language shall be construed as mutually chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party.

Section 9.20 <u>Waiver of Conflicts</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;(a) Parent waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, including, following the Closing, the Maverick Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries, to waive and not assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing (the "<u>Post-Closing Representation</u>"), of each and any Maverick OpCo Holder, Class A Maverick PropCo Holder and any of their respective Affiliates, equityholders, officers, employees or directors (any such Person, a "<u>Designated Person</u>") in any matter involving this Agreement or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby (including matters in which the interests of the Maverick OpCo Holders, the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders or any of their respective Affiliates may be directly adverse to Parent and its Affiliates), by any legal counsel currently representing any Designated Person in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby listed on Section 9.20(a) of the Maverick Disclosure Letter, including Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz (any such representation, the "<u>Current Representation</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;(b) Parent waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, including, following the Closing, the Maverick Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries, to waive and not assert, any attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection with respect to any communication between any legal counsel and any Designated Person occurring during the Current Representation (the "<u>Privileged Communications</u>") or in connection with any Post-Closing Representation, including in connection with a dispute with Parent or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, any Acquired Company or any of its Subsidiaries), it being the intention of the parties that all such rights to such attorney-client and other applicable legal privilege or protection and to control such attorney-client and other applicable legal privilege or protection shall be retained by the Maverick OpCo Holders, the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders and their respective Affiliates and that the Maverick OpCo Holders, the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders and their respective Affiliates, and not Parent or its Affiliates or the Maverick Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries, shall have the sole right to decide whether or not to waive any attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection. Accordingly, from and after the Closing, none of Parent or its Affiliates, including the Maverick

Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries, shall have any access to any such communications or to the files of the Current Representation, all of which shall be and remain the property of the Maverick OpCo Holders and the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders and not of Parent or its Affiliates (including the Maverick Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries) or to internal counsel relating to the Current Representation, and none of Parent or its Affiliates, including, following the Closing, the Maverick Surviving Companies and their Subsidiaries, or any Person acting or purporting to act on their behalf shall seek to obtain the same by any process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Parent or its Affiliates, including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and a third party other than the Maverick OpCo Holders or the Class A Maverick PropCo Holders or their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, Parent or its Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent the disclosure of the Privileged Communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates, nor, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies, may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Holder Representative (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Holder Representative, for any reason or no reason).

Section 9.21 <u>Debt Financing Sources</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the parties hereto on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates hereby: (a) agrees that any legal action (whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise) involving the Debt Financing Sources arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing Fee Letter, the Debt Financing Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available and any appellate court thereof (each such court, the "<u>Subject Courts</u>") and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such legal action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such Subject Courts and agrees that any such legal action shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in any agreement relating to the Debt Financing, including with respect to (i) the interpretation of the definition of Acquired Companies Material Adverse Effect (and whether or not an Acquired Companies Material Adverse Effect has occurred), (ii) the determination of the accuracy of any "specified acquisition agreement representation" (as such term or similar term is defined in the Debt Commitment Letter) and whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof Parent or any of its Affiliates has the right to terminate its or their obligations hereunder pursuant to <u>Section 8.1(d)</u> or decline to consummate the Closing as a result thereof pursuant to <u>Section 6.1</u> and (iii) the determination of whether the Closing has been consummated in all material respects in accordance with the terms hereof, which shall in each case be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule that would cause the application of Laws of any other jurisdiction, (b) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support any legal action (including any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third party claim of any kind or description, whether in Law or in equity, whether in Contract or in tort or otherwise), against the Debt Financing Sources in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby

or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any Subject Court, (c) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such legal action in any such Subject Court, (d) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law trial by jury in any legal action brought against the Debt Financing Sources in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (e) agrees that none of the Debt Financing Sources will have any liability to any of Holder Representative, the Acquired Companies or their respective Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder and that none of Holder Representative, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates shall bring or support any legal action (including any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third party claim of any kind or description, whether in Law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise), against any of the Debt Financing Sources relating to or in any way arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Debt Financing Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (f) waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any legal action involving any Debt Financing Source or the transactions contemplated hereby, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Subject Courts as described herein for any reason, and (g) agrees (i) that the Debt Financing Sources are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions in this <u>Section 9.21</u> (or the definitions of any terms used in this <u>Section 9.21</u>) and (ii) to the extent any amendments to any provision of this <u>Section 9.21</u> (or, solely as they relate to such Section, the definitions of any terms used in this <u>Section 9.21</u>) are materially adverse to the Debt Financing Sources, such provisions shall not be amended without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources that have a consent right over such amendments pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, nothing in this <u>Section 9.21</u> shall in any way affect any party's or any of their respective Affiliates' rights and remedies under any binding agreement to which a Debt Financing Source is a party, including the Debt Commitment Letter, or the rights of the Acquired Companies and their respective Subsidiaries against the Debt Financing Sources with respect to the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or any services thereunder following the Closing Date.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that any such obligations to indemnify or advance expenses to a Ki Director in his or her capacity as such, for the matters covered by such indemnification obligations shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement of such Ki Director in connection therewith, and any right to indemnification or advancement of expenses that a Ki Director may have from the Ki Holder shall be secondary. Any Ki Director shall be subject to the same policies applied generally to non-employee Directors as in effect from time to time, including with respect to compensation and expense reimbursement.

**ARTICLE V<br>REGISTRATION RIGHTS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1 <u>Demand Registrations</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;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (x) solely during any period that the Company is then-ineligible under Applicable Law to register Registrable Securities on Form S-3 pursuant to <u>Section 5.3</u> or, if the Company is so eligible but has failed to comply with its obligations under <u>Section 5.3</u> or (y) following the expiration of the Company's obligation to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective pursuant to <u>Section 5.3(c)</u>, but only if there is no Shelf Registration Statement then in effect, any Demand Stockholders ("<u>Requesting Stockholders</u>") shall be entitled to make three (3) written requests in any calendar year, <u>provided</u> that the number of such requests shall not exceed two (2) in any 90-day period, of the Company (each, a "<u>Demand</u>") for registration under the Securities Act on Form S-1 of an amount of Registrable Securities then held by such Requesting Stockholders that equals or is greater than the Registrable Amount (a "<u>Demand Registration</u>"), it being understood and agreed that a Demand Registration may, if so requested by Requesting Stockholders, be for a registration statement providing for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act and the provisions of <u>Section 5.3(c)</u> shall apply to the registration statement pursuant to a Demand Registration as if such registration statement was a Shelf Registration Statement; <u>provided</u> that no registration statement pursuant to a Demand Registration need be effective prior to the expiration of the initial Applicable Restricted Period. Thereupon the Company will, subject to the terms of this Agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration as promptly as practicable under the Securities Act of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Requesting Stockholders for disposition in accordance with the intended method of disposition stated in such Demand;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) all other Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register pursuant to <u>Section 5.1(b)</u>, but subject to <u>Section 5.1(g)</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;(iii) all shares of Holdco Common Stock which the Company may elect to register in connection with any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1</u>, but subject to <u>Section 5.1(g)</u>;

all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof) of the Registrable Securities and the additional shares of Holdco Common Stock, if any, to be so registered.

&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) A Demand shall specify: (i) the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered in such Demand Registration, (ii) the intended method of disposition in connection with such Demand Registration, to the extent then known and (iii) the identity of the Requesting Stockholder(s). Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of a Demand, the Company shall give written notice of such Demand to all other holders of Registrable Securities. The Company shall include in the Demand Registration covered by such Demand all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein within ten (10) calendar days after the Company's notice required by this paragraph has been given, subject to <u>Section 5.1(g)</u>. Each such written request shall comply with the requirements of a Demand as set forth in this <u>Section 5.1(b)</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;(c) A Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have been effected and shall not count as a Demand Registration (i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective and has remained effective for a period of at least ninety (90) calendar days or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration have actually been sold thereunder (<u>provided</u> that such period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the holders of Registrable Securities refrain from selling any securities included in such registration statement at the request of the Company or the lead managing underwriter(s) or pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (ii) if, after it has become effective, such Demand Registration becomes subject, prior to ninety (90) calendar days after effectiveness, to any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other Governmental Authority, other than by reason of any act or omission by the applicable Selling Stockholders.

&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) Demand Registrations shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC as shall be selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Requesting Stockholders.

&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 Company shall not be obligated to (i) subject to <u>Section 5.1(c)</u>, maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act filed pursuant to a Demand Registration, for a period longer than ninety (90) calendar days or (ii) effect any Demand Registration (A) within six (6) months of a "firm commitment" Underwritten Offering

in which all Demand Stockholders were offered "piggyback" rights pursuant to <u>Section 5.2</u> (subject to <u>Section 5.2(b)</u>) and at least 75% of the number of Registrable Securities requested by such Demand Stockholders to be included in such Demand Registration were included and sold, (B) within six (6) months of the completion of any other Demand Registration (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement) or (C) if, in the Company's reasonable judgment, it is not feasible for the Company to proceed with the Demand Registration because of the unavailability of audited or other required financial statements; <u>provided</u> that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such financial statements as promptly as practicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Company shall be entitled to postpone (upon written notice to the Demand Stockholders) the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for any Demand Registration in the event of a Blackout Period until the expiration of the applicable Blackout Period. In the event of a Blackout Period under clause (ii) of the definition thereof, the Company shall deliver to the Demand Stockholders requesting registration a certificate signed by either the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of the Company certifying that, in such officer's good faith judgment, the conditions described in clause (ii) of the definition of Blackout Period are met. Such certificate shall contain an approximation of the anticipated delay. A Blackout Period may not be applied or in effect at any time that all executive officers of the Company or Directors are permitted to purchase or sell Voting Securities, or during which the Company engages in repurchases of Voting Securities other than pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan under the securities laws (the "<u>Blackout Period Limitations</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;(g) If, in connection with a Demand Registration that involves an Underwritten Offering, the lead managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Company that, in its (their) opinion, the inclusion of all of the securities sought to be registered in connection with such Demand Registration would adversely affect the success thereof, then the Company shall include in such registration statement only such securities as the Company is advised by such lead managing underwriter(s) can be sold without such adverse effect as follows and in the following order of priority: (i) first, up to the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration by the Demand Stockholders, which, in the opinion of the lead managing underwriter(s), can be sold without adversely affecting the success thereof, pro rata among such Demand Stockholders on the basis of the number of such Registrable Securities requested to be included by such Demand Stockholders; (ii) second, up to the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration by other holders of Registrable Securities, pro rata on the basis of the amount of such Registrable Securities requested to be included by such holders; (iii) third, securities the Company proposes to sell; and (iv) fourth, all other securities of the Company duly requested to be included in such registration statement, pro rata on the basis of the amount of such other securities requested to be included or such other allocation method determined by 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;(h) Any time that a Demand Registration involves an Underwritten Offering, the Requesting Stockholder(s) shall select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) that will serve as managing underwriters (including which such managing underwriters will serve as lead or co-lead) and underwriters with respect to the offering of such Registrable Securities, as well as counsel to such underwriters; <u>provided</u> that such investment banker(s), manager(s) and counsel

shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 <u>Piggyback Registrations</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;(a) From and after the expiration of the initial Applicable Restricted Period, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, whenever the Company proposes to register any Holdco Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than a registration by the Company (i) on Form S-4 or any successor form thereto, (ii) on Form S-8 or any successor form thereto, (iii) relating exclusively to employee benefit plans or dividend reinvestment plans, (iv) on a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to <u>Section 5.3</u> or (v) pursuant to <u>Section 5.1</u>) (a "<u>Piggyback Registration</u>"), whether for its own account or for the account of others, the Company shall give all holders of Registrable Securities prompt written notice thereof (but not less than ten (10) calendar days prior to the filing by the Company with the SEC of any registration statement with respect thereto). Such notice (a "<u>Piggyback Notice</u>") shall specify the number of shares of Holdco Common Stock proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such registration statement with the SEC, the proposed means of distribution, the proposed managing underwriter(s) (if any) and a good faith estimate by the Company of the proposed minimum offering price of such shares of Holdco Common Stock, in each case to the extent then known. Subject to <u>Section 5.2(b)</u>, the Company shall include in each such Piggyback Registration all Registrable Securities held by holders of Registrable Securities (a "<u>Piggyback Seller</u>") with respect to which the Company has received written requests (which written requests shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be disposed of by such Piggyback Seller) for inclusion therein within ten (10) calendar days after such Piggyback Notice is received by such Piggyback Seller.

&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, in connection with a Piggyback Registration that involves an Underwritten Offering, the lead managing underwriter(s) advises the Company that, in its opinion, the inclusion of all the shares of Holdco Common Stock sought to be included in such Piggyback Registration by (i) the Company, (ii) other Persons who have sought to have shares of Holdco Common Stock registered in such Piggyback Registration pursuant to rights to demand (other than pursuant to so-called "piggyback" or other incidental or participation registration rights or shelf registration rights) such registration (such Persons being "<u>Other Demanding Sellers</u>"), (iii) the Piggyback Sellers and (iv) any other proposed sellers of shares of Holdco Common Stock (such Persons being "<u>Other Proposed Sellers</u>"), as the case may be, would adversely affect the success thereof, then the Company shall include in the registration statement applicable to such Piggyback Registration only such shares of Holdco Common Stock as the Company is so advised by such lead managing underwriter(s) can be sold without such an effect, as follows and in the following order of priority:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) if the Piggyback Registration relates to an offering for the Company's own account, then (A) first, such number of shares of Holdco Common Stock to be sold by the Company as the Company, in its reasonable judgment and acting in good faith and in accordance with sound financial practice, shall have determined, (B) second, Registrable Securities of Piggyback Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Piggyback Sellers, (C) third, shares of Holdco Common Stock sought to be registered by Other Demanding Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares

of Holdco Common Stock proposed to be sold by such Other Demanding Sellers and (D) fourth, other shares of Holdco Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Other Proposed Sellers; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) if the Piggyback Registration relates to an offering other than for the Company's own account, then (A) first, such number of shares of Holdco Common Stock sought to be registered by each Other Demanding Seller pro rata in proportion to the number of securities sought to be registered by all such Other Demanding Sellers, (B) second, Registrable Securities of Piggyback Sellers, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Holdco Common Stock proposed to be sold by such Piggyback Sellers, (C) third, shares of Holdco Common Stock to be sold by the Company and (D) fourth, other shares of Holdco Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Other Proposed Sellers.

&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) For clarity, in connection with any Underwritten Offering under this <u>Section 5.2</u> for the Company's account, the Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Piggyback Seller in the Underwritten Offering unless such Piggyback Seller accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s), which shall be selected by the Company (<u>provided</u> that such underwriting agreement is consistent with the terms 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;(d) If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any shares of Holdco Common Stock as set forth in this <u>Section 5.2</u> and prior to the time the registration statement filed in connection with such Piggyback Registration is declared effective, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such shares of Holdco Common Stock, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Piggyback Sellers promptly thereafter and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such particular withdrawn or abandoned Piggyback Registration; <u>provided</u> that Demand Stockholders may continue the registration as a Demand Registration pursuant to the terms of <u>Section 5.1</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 <u>Shelf Registration Statement</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;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and further subject to the availability of a registration statement on Form S-3 or any successor form thereto ("<u>Form S-3</u>") to the Company, any of the Demand Stockholders may by written notice delivered to the Company (the "<u>Shelf Notice</u>") require the Company to file as soon as reasonably practicable, and to use reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after such filing date (<u>provided</u> that no Shelf Registration Statement need be effective prior to the expiration of the initial Applicable Restricted Period), a Form S-3 providing for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the "<u>Shelf Registration Statement</u>") relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an amount of Registrable Securities then held by such Demand Stockholders that equals or is greater than the Registrable Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that upon the expiration of the initial Applicable Restricted Period the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), a Shelf Notice shall not be required and the Company shall file on or prior to the expiration of the initial Applicable Restricted Period, the Shelf Registration Statement in the form of an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under

the Securities Act) or any successor form thereto registering all Registrable Securities then held by such Demand Stockholders.

&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) Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a Shelf Notice pursuant to <u>Section 5.3(a)</u>, the Company will deliver written notice thereof to all other holders of Registrable Securities. Each other holder of Registrable Securities may elect to participate with respect to its Registrable Securities in the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the plan and method of distribution set forth, or to be set forth, in such Shelf Registration Statement by delivering to the Company a written request to so participate within ten (10) calendar days after the Shelf Notice is received by any such holder of Registrable Securities.

&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) Subject to <u>Section 5.3(d)</u>, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier of (i) three (3) years after the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective; (ii) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold thereunder in accordance with the plan and method of distribution disclosed in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement, or otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities; and (iii) the date on which this Agreement terminates pursuant to <u>Section 7.1</u>. If, as of the date that is three (3) years after the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, (i) all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have not been sold thereunder in accordance with the plan and method of distribution disclosed in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement, or otherwise have ceased to be Registrable Securities and (ii) this Agreement has not terminated pursuant to <u>Section 7.1</u>, no more than twenty (20) and no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date that is three (3) years after the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, the Company shall notify holders of the Registrable Securities and, if requested by such holders, shall file, and use reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable following such request from holders, another Shelf Registration Statement (with respect to which all of the Company's obligations as to the initial Shelf Registration Statement shall apply as if such Shelf Registration Statement was the initial Shelf Registration Statement).

&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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, from time to time, by providing written notice to the holders of Registrable Securities who elected to participate in the Shelf Registration Statement, to require such holders of Registrable Securities to suspend the use of the prospectus for sales of Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement during any Blackout Period. In the event of a Blackout Period under clause (ii) of the definition thereof (but subject to the Blackout Period Limitations not being applicable), the Company shall deliver to the Demand Stockholders requesting registration a certificate signed by either the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of the Company certifying that, in the good faith judgment of the Board, the conditions described in clause (ii) of the definition of Blackout Period are met. Such certificate shall contain an approximation of the anticipated delay. After the expiration of any Blackout Period (or upon the application of a Blackout Period Limitation) and without any further request from a holder of Registrable Securities, the Company to the extent necessary shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus, or any document incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable

Securities included therein, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

&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) At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if any Demand Stockholder delivers a notice to the Company (a "<u>Take-Down Notice</u>") stating that it intends to sell all or part of its Registrable Securities included by it on the Shelf Registration Statement in an Underwritten Offering (a "<u>Shelf Offering</u>"), then, the Company shall promptly amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering (taking into account, solely in connection with a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering, the inclusion of Registrable Securities by any other holders pursuant to this <u>Section 5.3</u>). In connection with any Shelf Offering that is an Underwritten Offering and where the plan of distribution set forth in the applicable Take-Down Notice includes a customary "road show" (including an "electronic road show") or other substantial marketing effort by the Company and the underwriters (a "<u>Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering</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;(i) the Company shall forward the Take-Down Notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement and the Company and such proposing Demand Stockholder(s) shall permit each such holder to include its Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement in the Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering if such holder notifies the proposing Demand Stockholder(s) and the Company within five (5) calendar days after delivery of the Take-Down Notice to such holder; 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;(ii) if the lead managing underwriter(s) advises the Company and the proposing Demand Stockholder(s) that, in its opinion, the inclusion of all of the securities sought to be sold in connection with such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering would adversely affect the success thereof, then there shall be included in such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering only such securities as the proposing Demand Stockholder(s) is advised by such lead managing underwriter(s) can be sold without such adverse effect, and such number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated in the same manner as described in <u>Section 5.1(g)</u>. Except as otherwise expressly specified in this <u>Section 5.3</u>, any Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering shall be subject to the same requirements, limitations and other provisions of this <u>Article V</u> as would be applicable to a Demand Registration (*i.e.*, as if such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering were a Demand Registration), including <u>Section 5.1(e)(ii)</u> (<u>provided</u> that references therein to six (6) months shall be deemed to be references to four (4) months) and <u>Section 5.1(g)</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, a Shelf Offering shall not constitute a Demand Registration unless such Shelf Offering is a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4 <u>Withdrawal Rights</u>. Any holder of Registrable Securities having notified or directed the Company to include any or all of its Registrable Securities in a registration statement under the Securities Act shall have the right to withdraw any such notice or direction with respect to any or all of the Registrable Securities designated by it for registration by giving written notice to such effect to the Company prior to the effective date of such registration statement. In the event of any such withdrawal, the Company shall not include such Registrable Securities in the applicable registration and such Registrable Securities shall continue to be

Registrable Securities for all purposes of this Agreement (subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement). No such withdrawal shall affect the obligations of the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities not so withdrawn; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that in the case of a Demand Registration, if such withdrawal shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included in such registration below the Registrable Amount, then the Company shall as promptly as practicable give each Demand Stockholder seeking to register Registrable Securities notice to such effect and, within ten (10) calendar days following the mailing of such notice, such Demand Stockholders still seeking registration shall, by written notice to the Company, elect to register additional Registrable Securities to satisfy the Registrable Amount or elect that such registration statement not be filed or, if theretofore filed, be withdrawn. During such ten (10) calendar day period, the Company shall not file such registration statement if not theretofore filed or, if such registration statement has been theretofore filed, the Company shall not seek, and shall use reasonable best efforts to prevent, the effectiveness thereof. If a holder withdraws its notification or direction to the Company to include Registrable Securities in a registration statement in accordance with this <u>Section 5.4</u> with respect to a sufficient number of Registrable Securities so as to reduce the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration statement below the Registrable Amount, such holder shall be required to promptly reimburse the Company for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company in connection with preparing for the registration of such Registrable Securities prior to such withdrawal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 <u>Holdback Agreements</u>. In connection with any Underwritten Offering, each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to enter into customary agreements restricting the public sale or distribution of equity securities of the Company (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to the extent required in writing by the lead managing underwriter(s) with respect to an applicable Underwritten Offering during the period commencing on the date of the "pricing" of such Underwritten Offering and continuing for not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the date of the "final" prospectus (or "final" prospectus supplement if the Underwritten Offering is made pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement), pursuant to which such Underwritten Offering shall be made, or such lesser period as is required by the lead managing underwriter(s). Any discretionary waiver or termination of the requirements under the foregoing provisions or any other "lock up" made by the Company or applicable lead managing underwriter(s) shall apply to each holder of Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis. Each person subject to the restrictions of the preceding sentence shall receive the benefit of any shorter "lock-up" period or permitted exceptions agreed to by the managing underwriter or underwriters for any Underwritten Offering and the terms of such lock-up agreements shall govern such person in lieu of the preceding sentence; <u>provided</u> that in no event shall the holders of Registrable Securities be obligated to enter into such lock-up that are any more restrictive than such agreements agreed to by the Company, its directors and executive officers or the other stockholders of the Company participating in such offering; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the Company, its directors, executive officers or other stockholders shall not be released from any holdback agreement unless the holders of Registrable Securities are similarly released; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that any lock-up shall contain customary exceptions.

If any Demand Registration or Shelf Offering involves an Underwritten Offering, the Company will not effect any public sale or distribution of any common equity (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common equity) (other than a registration

statement on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or a registration relating exclusively to employee benefit plans or dividend reinvestment plans) for its own account, within sixty (60) calendar days after the effective date of such registration except as may otherwise be agreed between the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s) of such Underwritten Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6 <u>Registration Procedures</u>.

During such time as an Opt-Out is in effect: the Opting-Out Stockholder (a) shall not receive notices of any proposed Demand Registration, Shelf Offering or Piggyback Registration and (b) shall not be entitled to participate in any such registration or offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.9 <u>Registration Indemnification</u>.

managers, partners, accountants, attorneys and agents of each such controlling Person, each such underwriter and each such Person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, Loss, damage, liability or action, except insofar as the same are caused by any information furnished in writing to the Company by any other party expressly for use therein.

&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) In connection with any registration statement in which a Selling Stockholder is participating, without limitation as to time, each such Selling Stockholder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify the Company, its directors and officers, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of, caused by, resulting from or relating to any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (without limitation of the preceding portions of this <u>Section 5.9(b)</u>) will reimburse the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, Loss, damage, liability or action, in each case solely to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Selling Stockholder for inclusion in such registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Selling Stockholder shall be liable under this <u>Section 5.9(b)</u> for amounts in excess of the net proceeds received by such holder in the offering giving rise to 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;(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, the failure to give such notice shall not release the indemnifying party from its obligation, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to provide such notice on a timely basis.

&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) In any case in which any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and acknowledging the obligations of the indemnifying party with respect to such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate and settle the matter in question in accordance with this paragraph) be liable to such indemnified party hereunder for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation, supervision and monitoring (unless (i) such indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that there may be defenses available to it which are different

from or in addition to the defenses available to such indemnifying party and, as a result, a conflict of interest exists or (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed within a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and the indemnified party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such delay, in either event the indemnified party shall be promptly reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the expenses incurred in connection with retaining one separate legal counsel (for the avoidance of doubt, for all indemnified parties in connection therewith)). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any such assumption by an indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such matter and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party except as provided in the previous sentence. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of an action or claim effected without its consent. No matter shall be settled by an indemnifying party without the consent of the indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

&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 provided for under this Agreement shall survive the Transfer of the Registrable Securities and the termination 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;(f) If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions for any reason or reasons other than as specified therein, any Person who would otherwise be entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall nevertheless be entitled to contribution with respect to any Losses with respect to which such Person would be entitled to such indemnification but for such reason or reasons, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, the Persons' relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. It is hereby agreed that it would not necessarily be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Selling Stockholder shall be required to make a contribution in excess of the net proceeds received by such Selling Stockholder from its sale of Registrable Securities in connection with the offering that gave rise to the contribution obligation.

No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified unless such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by (i) the Company, and (ii) the Ki Holder; <u>provided</u> that any amendment that would affect the obligations, rights, benefits or entitlements of an Investor in a materially adverse and disproportionate manner compared to the other Investors shall also require the consent of such Investor. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.5 <u>Successors and Assigns</u>.

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Any attempted assignment in violation of this <u>Section 7.5</u> shall be void.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.8 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.9 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement), together with the Merger Agreement, the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.12 <u>No Third Party Beneficiaries</u>.
