&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The MAIR Parties shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you at such Time of Delivery certificates of officers of the Company and MIAQ Solutions satisfactory to you as to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and MIAQ Solutions herein at and as of such Time of Delivery, as to the performance by each of the MAIR of all of its respective obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to such Time of Delivery, as to the matters set forth in subsections (a) and (e) of this Section 8 and as to such other matters as you may reasonably request; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Each of the Company and MIAQ Solutions shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you on the date of the Prospectus at a time prior to the execution of this Agreement and at such Time of Delivery a certificate or certificates of its Chief Financial Officer as to the accuracy of certain financial information included in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus, in form and substance satisfactory to you.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) The Organizational Transactions shall have been consummated in all material respects as described in the Pricing Prospectus (except with respect to aspects of the Organizational Transactions that cannot be, or are not intended to be, completed on or prior to such Time of Delivery).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. (a) Each of the MAIR Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, any roadshow, any "issuer information" filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending against any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the MAIR Parties shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the MAIR Parties against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the MAIR Parties may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, any roadshow or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, any roadshow or any Testing-the-Waters Communication, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information; and will reimburse the MAIR Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the MAIR Parties in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. As used in this Agreement with respect to an Underwriter and an applicable document, "Underwriter Information" shall mean the written information furnished to the MAIR Parties by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein; it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the discount figures appearing in the sixth paragraph under the caption "Underwriting," and the information contained in the thirteenth and fourteenth paragraphs under the caption "Underwriting."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 9 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through

------

## the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 9. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred and documented by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent the indemnified party if (i) the indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall have so mutually agreed; (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; (iii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to them that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified party, on the one hand, and the indemnifying party, on the other hand, and representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (x) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party or (ii) be required to indemnify any indemnified party hereunder for any settlement of any such action effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 9(a) hereof, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request or disputed in good faith the indemnified party's entitlement to such reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the MAIR Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the

------

## allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the MAIR Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the MAIR Parties on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the MAIR Parties bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the MAIR Parties on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The MAIR Parties and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The obligations of the MAIR Parties under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the MAIR Parties may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each employee, officer and director of each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act and each broker-dealer or other affiliate of any Underwriter; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the MAIR Parties (including any person who, with his or her consent, is named in the Registration Statement as about to become a director of the Company) and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. (a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Shares which it has agreed to purchase hereunder at a Time of Delivery, you may in your discretion arrange for you or another party or other parties to purchase such Shares on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter you do not arrange for the purchase of such Shares, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to you to purchase such Shares on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, you notify the Company that you have so arranged for the purchase of such Shares, or the Company notifies you that it

------

# has so arranged for the purchase of such Shares, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone such Time of Delivery for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in your opinion may thereby be made necessary. The term "Underwriter" as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section 10 with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Shares.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate number of such Shares which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate number of all the Shares to be purchased at such Time of Delivery, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of Shares which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder at such Time of Delivery and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the number of Shares which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Shares of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection (a) above, the aggregate number of such Shares which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate number of all the Shares to be purchased at such Time of Delivery, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Shares of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement (or, with respect to the Second Time of Delivery, the obligations of the Underwriters to purchase and of the Company to sell the Optional Shares) shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the MAIR Parties, except for the expenses to be borne by the MAIR Parties and the Underwriters as provided in Section 7 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the MAIR Parties and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any director, officer, employee, affiliate or controlling person of any Underwriter, or the MAIR Parties, or any officer or director or controlling person of the MAIR Parties, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 10 hereof, the MAIR Parties shall not then be under any liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof; but, if for any other reason, any Shares are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein or the Underwriters decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the MAIR Parties will reimburse the Underwriters through you for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses approved in writing by you, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred and documented by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Shares not so delivered, but the MAIR Parties shall then be under no further liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. In all dealings hereunder, the Representatives shall act on behalf of each of the Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by you jointly or by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC on behalf of you as the Representatives.

All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to you as the Representatives in care of (a) Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, 200 West Street, New York, New York 10282-2198, Attention: Registration Department; and (b) Barclays Capital Inc., 745 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019, Attention: Syndicate Registration (Fax: (646) 834-8133) with a copy, in the case of any notice pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof, to the Director of Litigation, Office of the General Counsel, Barclays Capital Inc., 745 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019; and if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Registration Statement, Attention: Secretary; provided, however, that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 9(c) hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to such Underwriter at its address set forth in its Underwriters' Questionnaire, or telex constituting such Questionnaire, which address will be supplied to the Company by you upon request. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof.

In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the MAIR Parties and, to the extent provided in Sections 9 and 11 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls any MAIR Party or any Underwriter, or any director, officer, employee, or affiliate of any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, the term "business day" shall mean any day when the Commission's office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. Each MAIR Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement is an arm's-length commercial transaction between the MAIR Parties, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the MAIR Parties, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any of the MAIR Parties with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising any of the MAIR Parties on other matters) or any other obligation to any of the MAIR Parties except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) each of the MAIR Parties has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate, and (v) none of the activities of the Underwriters in connection with the transactions contemplated herein constitutes a recommendation, investment advice, or solicitation of any action by the Underwriters with respect to any entity or natural person. Each of

------

# the MAIR Parties agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to any of the MAIR Parties, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the MAIR Parties and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. This Agreement and any transaction contemplated by this Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related thereto shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflict of laws that would result in the application of any other law than the laws of the State of New York. Each of the MAIR Parties agrees that any suit or proceeding arising in respect of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement will be tried exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if that court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in The City and County of New York and each of the MAIR Parties agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of, and to venue in, such courts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. Each of the MAIR Parties and the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the MAIR Parties are authorized to disclose to any persons the U.S. federal and state income tax treatment and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided to the MAIR Parties relating to that treatment and structure, without the Underwriters imposing any limitation of any kind. However, any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities laws. For this purpose, "tax structure" is limited to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,

------

## Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) As used in this section 22:

"BHC Act Affiliate" has the meaning assigned to the term "affiliate" in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

"Covered Entity" means any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a "covered entity" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a "covered bank" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) a "covered FSI" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

"Default Right" has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

"U.S. Special Resolution Regime" means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

------

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us seven counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, on behalf of each of the Underwriters, this Agreement and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between each of the Underwriters, the Company and MIAQ Solutions. It is understood that your acceptance of this Agreement on behalf of each of the Underwriters is pursuant to the authority set forth in a form of Agreement among Underwriters, the form of which shall be submitted to the Company and MIAQ Solutions for examination upon request, but without warranty on your part as to the authority of the signers thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Subdivision, Consolidation or Reclassification</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Conversion</u>.

Such conversion shall be deemed to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted. Contemporaneously with the receipt by the Corporation of written notice of such conversion election as required by this <u>Section 3(f)(i)</u> of this ARTICLE FOUR, the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to be outstanding as of such time, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to be the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock as of such time. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, shares of Class B Common Stock represented by a lost, stolen or destroyed stock certificate may be converted pursuant to an Optional Class B Conversion Event if the holder thereof notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and makes an affidavit of that fact acceptable to the Corporation and executes an agreement acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)<u>Automatic Conversion of Class B Common Stock</u>. Each share of Class B Common Stock shall automatically convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock upon the occurrence of the earliest of an event described below (each, a "**Mandatory Class B Conversion Event**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.<u>Reduction in Voting Power</u>. Each then-outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall automatically, without further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock at 5:00 p.m. New York City time upon the date fixed by the Board that is no less than 61 days and no more than 180 days following (and if no date is fixed by the Board, then 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the date that is 180 days following) the first date on which the aggregate number of then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock ceases to represent at least 10% of the then-outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.<u>Death or Disability of Larry W. Gies</u>. Each then-outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall automatically, without further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock upon the 12-month anniversary of the death or Disability of Larry W. Gies, which may be extended to the 18-month anniversary of the death or Disability of Larry W. Gies upon affirmative approval of a majority of the Independent Directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.<u>Transfers</u>. Upon the occurrence of a Transfer, other than a Permitted Transfer, of a share of Class B Common Stock each share of Class B Common Stock so Transferred shall automatically, without further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)<u>Certificates</u>. Each outstanding stock certificate (if shares are in certificated form) that, immediately prior to the occurrence of a Mandatory Class B Conversion Event, represented one or more shares of Class B Common Stock shall, upon such Mandatory Class B Conversion Event, represent an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, without the need for surrender or exchange thereof. The Corporation shall, upon the request of any holder whose shares of Class B Common Stock have been converted into shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of an Optional Class B Conversion Event or a Mandatory Class B Conversion Event (either of the foregoing, a "**Conversion Event**") and upon surrender by such holder to the Corporation of the outstanding certificate(s) formerly representing such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock, if any (or, in the case of any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon such holder providing an affidavit of that fact acceptable to the Corporation and executing an agreement acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificate), issue and deliver to such holder (or such other Person specified pursuant to <u>Section 3(f)(i)</u> of this ARTICLE FOUR) certificate(s) representing the shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock were converted as a result of such Conversion Event (if such shares are certificated) or, if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Each share of Class B Common Stock that is converted pursuant to <u>Section 3(f)(i)</u> or <u>Section 3(f)(ii)</u> of this ARTICLE FOUR shall thereupon automatically be retired and shall not be available for reissuance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)<u>Policies and Procedures</u>. The Corporation may, from time to time, establish such policies and procedures, not in violation of applicable law or the other provisions of this Certificate or the Bylaws of the Corporation (as amended and/or restated, the "**Bylaws**"), relating to the conversion of the Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, as it may deem necessary or advisable in connection therewith. In connection with any action of stockholders taken at a meeting, the stock ledger of the Corporation (or in book-entry as maintained by the transfer agent of the Corporation) shall be presumptive evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders and the class or classes or series of shares held by each such stockholder and the number of shares of each class or classes or series held by such stockholder.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)<u>Reservation of Stock</u>. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock will not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock to such number of shares as will be sufficient for such purpose.

**ARTICLE FIVE** 

Section 1. <u>Board of Directors</u>. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate or the DGCL, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board.

Section 2. <u>Number of Directors</u>. Subject to any rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then-outstanding to elect additional directors under specified circumstances or otherwise, the number of directors which shall constitute the Board shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution of the Board; *provided that*, so long as Holdings is entitled to nominate directors pursuant to that certain Director Nomination Agreement, dated on or about the date hereof (as amended and/or restated or supplemented in accordance with its terms, the "**Director Nomination Agreement**", a copy of which was filed by the Corporation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), the number of directors shall not be changed without the consent of Holdings, and *further provided that*, before the Trigger Date, the size of the Board may also be fixed by the holders of a majority of the voting power present or represented by proxy at a duly convened meeting of stockholders or by a consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL.

Section 3. <u>Classes of Directors</u>. The directors of the Corporation, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, shall be divided into three classes designated Class I, Class II and Class III.

Section 4. <u>Election and Term of Office</u>. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, the directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. The term of office of the initial Class I directors shall expire at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the date the Common Stock is first publicly traded (the "**IPO Date**"), the term of office of the initial Class II directors shall expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders after the IPO Date, and the term of office of the initial Class III directors shall expire at the third annual meeting of the stockholders after the IPO Date. The Board may assign directors already in office to Class I, Class II, and Class III. At each annual meeting of stockholders after the IPO Date, directors elected to replace those of a class whose terms expire at such annual meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting after their election and until their respective successors shall have been duly elected and qualified. Each such director shall hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders for the year in which such director's term expires and a successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. Nothing in this Certificate shall preclude a director from serving consecutive terms. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws shall so provide.

Section 5. <u>Newly-Created Directorships and Vacancies</u>. Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal from office or any other cause may be filled only by resolution of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and may not be filled in any other manner; *provided that*, before the Trigger Date, vacant and newly created directorships that result from an increase in the number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, or by the stockholders; and further *provided that* any vacancy or newly created directorship relating to a director entitled to be nominated by Holdings pursuant to the Director Nomination Agreement may only be filled with the person nominated by Holdings. A director elected or appointed to fill a vacancy shall serve for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor in office and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. A director elected or appointed to fill a position resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been elected

Section 6. <u>Removal and Resignation of Directors</u>. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Certificate, (i) prior to the Trigger Date, directors may be removed with or without cause only upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least a majority of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, and (ii) on and after the Trigger Date, directors may only be removed for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of Voting Stock, voting together as a single class. Any director may resign at any time upon notice in writing or by electronic transmission to the Corporation.

Section 7. <u>Rights of Holders of Preferred Stock</u>. Notwithstanding the provisions of this ARTICLE FIVE, whenever the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock shall have the right, voting separately or together by series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorship shall be subject to the rights of such series of Preferred Stock. During any period when the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, have the right to elect additional directors, then upon commencement and for the duration of the period during which such right continues: (i) the then otherwise total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be increased by such specified number of directors, and the holders of such Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect the additional directors so provided for or fixed pursuant to said provisions, and (ii) each such additional director shall serve until such director's successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such director's right to hold such office terminates pursuant to said provisions, whichever occurs earlier, subject to his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. Except as otherwise provided by the Board in the resolution or resolutions establishing such series, whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such stock, the terms of office of all such additional directors elected by the holders of such stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, disqualification, or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate (in which case each such director thereupon shall cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director), and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

Section 8. <u>Advance Notice</u>. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws.

Section 10. <u>Board Committees</u>. From and after the effective date hereof until such time as Holdings ceases to beneficially own Common Stock representing at least 10% of the total voting power of the then outstanding shares of Voting Stock, the Board shall not form, designate or change the membership of any committee of the Board unless Holdings has consented to such formation, designation or change in membership. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the consent of Holdings shall not be required if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Holdings has been provided the opportunity to designate a number of members of each committee of the Board equal to the nearest whole number greater than the product obtained by multiplying: (i) the percentage of Holdings' voting power of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock and (ii) the number of positions, including any vacancies, on the applicable committee (each a "**Holdings Committee Designee**"); or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) none of the directors nominated by Holdings pursuant to the Director Nomination Agreement is eligible to serve on the applicable committee under applicable law or Listing Standards, including any applicable independence requirements (subject in each case to any applicable exceptions, including those for newly public companies and for "controlled companies," and any applicable phase-in periods).

Each Holdings Committee Designee shall have the right to remain on such committee until the next election of directors, regardless of the percentage of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock held, directly or indirectly, by Holdings immediately following the closing of the IPO, as such number may be adjusted from time to time for any reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar changes in the Company's capitalization (the "**Original Amount**") beneficially owned by Holdings following such designation and the Board shall not remove any such Holdings Committee Designee from a committee prior to the next election of directors. Unless Holdings notifies the Corporation otherwise prior to the time the Board takes action to change the composition of a Board committee, and to the extent Holdings has the requisite percentage of the Original Amount to nominate a Board committee member at the time the Board takes action to change the composition of any such Board committee, each Holdings Committee Designee currently serving on a committee shall be presumed to be re-designated for such committee. Without limiting the remedies available to Holdings, the Corporation shall not consummate any act or transaction approved or recommended by a committee of the Board formed or designated in a manner inconsistent with this <u>Section 10</u> without the prior written consent of Holdings.

If given by electronic mail, notice shall be deemed given when directed to such stockholder's electronic mail address unless the stockholder has notified the Corporation in writing or by electronic transmission of an objection to receiving notice by electronic mail or such notice is prohibited by the DGCL. Notice to stockholders may also be given by other forms of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder. If given by facsimile telecommunication, such notice shall be deemed given when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice by facsimile. If given by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, such notice shall be deemed given upon the later of: (A) such posting; and (B) the giving of such separate notice. If notice is given by any other form of electronic transmission, such notice shall be deemed given when directed to the stockholder. An affidavit of the secretary of the Corporation (the "Secretary") or an assistant secretary of the Corporation (the "Assistant Secretary"), the transfer agent of the Corporation (the "Transfer Agent"), or any other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be *prima facie* evidence of the facts stated 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) <u>Waiver of Notice</u>. Whenever notice is required to be given under any provisions of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the stockholder entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission given by the stockholder entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation need be specified in any waiver of notice of such meeting. Attendance of a stockholder of the Corporation at a meeting of such stockholders shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the stockholder attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and does not further participate in the meeting.

Section 5. <u>List of Stockholders</u>. The Corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth day before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting; *provided*, *however*, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the 10th day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each such stockholder. Nothing contained in this section shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of 10 days ending on the day before the meeting date: (A) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting; or (B) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. Except as otherwise provided by law, the list shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this Section 5 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 6. <u>Quorum</u>. The holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. If a quorum is not present, the chair of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon may adjourn the meeting to another time and/or place from time to time until a quorum shall be present in person or represented by proxy. When a specified item of business requires a vote by a class or series (if the Corporation shall then have outstanding shares of more than one class or series) voting as a separate class or series, the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding stock of such class or series shall constitute a quorum (as to such class or series) for the transaction of such item of business. A quorum once established at a meeting shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.

------

Section 7. <u>Adjourned Meetings</u>. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place (including an adjournment taken to address a technical failure to convene or continue a meeting using remote communication), notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are (i) announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, (ii) displayed, during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the same electronic network used to enable stockholders and proxy holders to participate in the meeting by means of remote communication or (iii) set forth in the notice of meeting given in accordance with these Bylaws. At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with these Bylaws, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 8. <u>Vote Required</u>. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then-outstanding, when a quorum has been established, all matters other than the election of directors shall be determined by the affirmative vote of the majority of voting power of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter, unless by express provisions of the DGCL or other applicable law, the rules of any stock exchange upon which the Corporation's securities are listed, any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws a minimum or different vote is required, in which case such minimum or different vote shall be the required vote for such matter. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast.

Section 9. <u>Voting Rights</u>. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then-outstanding, except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.

Section 10. <u>Proxies</u>. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent to corporate action without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

In addition, any stockholder who submits a notice pursuant to this <u>Section 11(b)</u> of ARTICLE II is required to update and supplement the information disclosed in such notice, if necessary, in accordance with <u>Section 11(c)</u> of this ARTICLE II and shall comply with <u>Section 11(e)</u> of this ARTICLE II.

For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation to update and supplement set forth in this paragraph or any other Section of these Bylaws shall not limit the Corporation's rights with respect to any deficiencies in any notice provided by a stockholder, extend any applicable deadlines hereunder or enable or be deemed to permit a stockholder who has previously submitted notice hereunder to amend or update any proposal or to submit any new proposal, including by changing or adding nominees, matters, business and/or resolutions proposed to be brought before a meeting of the stockholders.

If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chair of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by law, inspectors may be officers, employees, or agents of the Corporation. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.

Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. If shares are represented by certificates, the certificates shall be in such form as required by applicable law and as determined by the Board.

In that event, it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate or certificates, and record the transaction on its books. When shares are not represented by certificates, shares of stock of the Corporation shall only be transferred on the books of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by such holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, with such evidence of the authenticity of such transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably require, and accompanied by all necessary stock transfer stamps, and within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of such shares, the Corporation shall, if required by applicable law, send the holder to whom such shares have been issued or transferred a written statement of the information required by applicable law. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or any other instrument, the rights

The Corporation may issue or direct a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated shares to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates previously issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the owner of the lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated shares, the Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct, sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft, or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

Section 3. <u>Registered Stockholders</u>.

If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

ARTICLE VI<u><br>GENERAL PROVISIONS</u>

ARTICLE VII<u><br>INDEMNIFICATION</u>

Section 1. <u>Right to Indemnification and Advancement</u>. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including involvement, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, manager, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an "indemnitee"), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all expense, liability, and loss (including attorneys' fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes, or penalties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time ("ERISA") and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors, and administrators; *provided, however*, that, except as provided in <u>Section 2</u> of this ARTICLE VII with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advance of expenses (as defined herein), the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized in the specific case by the Board of the Corporation. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred herein, an indemnitee shall also have the right, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (an "advance of expenses"); *provided, however*, that if and to the extent that the DGCL requires, an advance of expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an "undertaking"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a "final adjudication") that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under <u>Section 1</u> of this ARTICLE VII or otherwise. The Corporation may also, by action of its Board, provide indemnification and advancement to employees and agents of the Corporation. Any reference to an officer of the Corporation in this ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to refer exclusively to the Chairman, CEO, President, CFO, Secretary, and Treasurer appointed pursuant to ARTICLE IV, and to any Vice President, Assistant Secretary, assistant treasurer, or other officer of the Corporation appointed by the Board or the CEO pursuant to ARTICLE IV of these Bylaws, and any reference to an officer of any other enterprise shall be deemed to refer exclusively to an officer appointed by the Board or equivalent governing body of such other entity pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or equivalent organizational documents of such other enterprise. The fact that any person who is or was an employee of the Corporation or an employee of any other enterprise has been given or has used the title of "Vice President" or any other title, including any title granted to such person by the CEO pursuant to <u>Section 11</u> of ARTICLE IV, that could be construed to suggest or imply that such person is or may be an officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise shall not result in such person being constituted as, or being deemed to be, an officer of the Corporation

------

or of such other enterprise for purposes of this ARTICLE VII unless such person's appointment to such office was approved by the Board pursuant to ARTICLE IV.

Section 2. <u>Procedure for Indemnification</u>. Any claim for indemnification or advance of expenses by an indemnitee under <u>Section 2</u> of this ARTICLE VII shall be made promptly, and in any event within 45 days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, 20 days, provided that the director or officer has delivered the undertaking contemplated by <u>Section 1</u> of this ARTICLE VII if required), upon the written request of the indemnitee. If the Corporation denies a written request for indemnification or advance of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment in full pursuant to such request is not made within 45 days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, 20 days, provided that the indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by <u>Section 1</u> of this ARTICLE VII if required), the right to indemnification or advances as granted by this ARTICLE VII shall be enforceable by the indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such person's costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of expenses where the undertaking required pursuant to <u>Section 1</u> of this ARTICLE VII, if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proof shall be on the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including the Board, a committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including the Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

Section 3. <u>Insurance</u>. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was or has agreed to become a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, or other enterprise against any expense, liability, or loss asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability, or loss under the DGCL.

Section 4. <u>Service for Subsidiaries</u>. Any person serving as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, at least 50% of whose equity interests are owned by the Corporation (a "subsidiary" for purposes of this ARTICLE VII) shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation.

Section 5. <u>Reliance</u>. Persons who after the date of the adoption of this provision become or remain directors or officers of the Corporation or who, while a director or officer of the Corporation, become or remain a director, manager, officer, employee, or agent of a subsidiary,

------

shall be conclusively presumed to have relied on the rights to indemnity, advance of expenses, and other rights contained in this ARTICLE VII in entering into or continuing such service. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this ARTICLE VII shall apply to claims made against an indemnitee arising out of acts or omissions which occurred or occur both prior and subsequent to the adoption hereof. Any amendment, alteration, or repeal of this ARTICLE VII that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.

Section 6. <u>Non-Exclusivity of Rights; Continuation of Rights of Indemnification</u>. The rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this ARTICLE VII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under the Certificate of Incorporation or under any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. All rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this ARTICLE VII is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this ARTICLE VII or repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall not in any way diminish any rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses of such director or officer or the obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect to any proceeding arising out of, or relating to, any actions, transactions, or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such repeal or modification.

Section 7. <u>Merger or Consolidation</u>. For purposes of this ARTICLE VII, references to the "Corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this ARTICLE VII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

Section 8. <u>Savings Clause</u>. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if this ARTICLE VII or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify and advance expenses to each person entitled to indemnification under <u>Section 1</u> of this ARTICLE VII as to all expense, liability, and loss (including attorneys' fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person and for which indemnification and advancement of expenses is available to such person pursuant to this ARTICLE VII to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this ARTICLE VII that shall not have been invalidated.

## Exhibit 4.1

**Exhibit 4.1**

**MADISON AIR SOLUTIONS CORPORATION**

**<u>REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT</u>**

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "<u>Agreement</u>") is made as of April 15, 2026 among Madison Air Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), Madison Industries Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("<u>Holdings</u>"), certain entities managed or controlled by B-Flexion Fund Management (Jersey) Limited, a Jersey limited partnership ("<u>Kedge</u>" and together with such entities, the "<u>Kedge Investors</u>"), and each Person who executes a Joinder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as an "Other Investor" (collectively, the "<u>Other Investors</u>"), a Holdings Member or a Distributed Holdings Investor. Except as otherwise specified herein, all capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto.

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

Section 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) <u>Requests for Registration</u>. At any time and from time to time, (i) Holdings or (ii) the Kedge Investors may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement ("<u>Long-Form Registrations</u>") or on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement ("<u>Short-Form Registrations</u>"), if available (any such requested registration, a "<u>Demand Registration</u>"). Holdings or the Kedge Investors may request that any Demand Registration be made pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a "<u>Shelf Registration</u>") and (if the Company is a WKSI at the time any such request is submitted to the Company or will become one by the time of the filing of such Shelf Registration) that such Shelf Registration be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (an "<u>Automatic Shelf Registration Statement</u>"). Each request for a Demand Registration must specify the approximate number or dollar value of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the requesting Holders and (if known) the intended method of distribution. Holdings will be entitled to request an unlimited number of Demand Registrations. The Kedge Investors will be entitled to request not more than two (2) Demand Registrations in any continuous twelve (12)-month period; <u>provided</u>, that a request for a Short-Form Registration or a Shelf Registration shall not be counted towards one of the foregoing two (2) Demand Registrations; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the Kedge Investors shall not be entitled to request a Demand Registration that is a marketed underwritten offering unless the then-current market value of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered is at least $50,000,000 (unless such Demand Registration is for all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Kedge Investors, in which case the Kedge Investors shall be entitled to make such Demand Registration even if the then-current market value of such Registrable Securities is below $50,000,000). The Company will pay all Expenses (as defined and described in <u>Section 5</u>), whether or not any such registration is consummated.

&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>Notice to Other Holders</u>. Within four (4) Business Days after receipt of any such request, the Company will give written notice of the Demand Registration to all other Holders and, subject to the terms of <u>Section 1(e)</u>, will include in such Demand Registration (and in all related registrations and qualifications under state blue sky laws and in any related underwriting) all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) days after the receipt of the Company's notice; <u>provided</u>, that, with the written consent of Holdings, the Company may, or at the written request of Holdings, the Company shall, instead provide notice of the Demand Registration to all other Holders within three (3) Business Days following the non-confidential filing of the registration statement with respect to the Demand Registration so long as such registration statement is not an Automatic 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;(c) <u>Form of Registrations</u>. All Long-Form Registrations will be underwritten registrations, unless otherwise approved by Holdings, or unless at the time of such Demand Registration the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement. Demand Registrations will be Short-Form Registrations whenever the Company is permitted to use any applicable short form unless otherwise requested by Holdings.

&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>Shelf 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For so long as a registration statement for a Shelf Registration (a "<u>Shelf Registration Statement</u>") is and remains effective, any Demand Investor will have the right at any time or from time to time to elect to sell pursuant to an offering (including an underwritten offering) Registrable Securities available for sale pursuant to such registration statement ("<u>Shelf Registrable Securities</u>"). If such Demand Investor desires to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to an underwritten offering, then such Demand Investor may deliver to the Company a written notice (a "<u>Shelf Offering Notice</u>") specifying the number of Shelf Registrable Securities that such Demand Investor desires to sell pursuant to such underwritten offering (the "<u>Shelf Offering</u>"). As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of a Shelf Offering Notice, the Company will give written notice of such Shelf Offering Notice to all other Holders of Shelf Registrable Securities that are otherwise permitted to sell in such Shelf Offering, and such notice shall request that each such Holder specify, within seven (7) days after such Holder's receipt of such notice, the maximum number of Shelf Registrable Securities such Holder desires to be disposed of in such Shelf Offering. The Company, subject to <u>Section 1(e)</u> and <u>Section 7</u>, will include in such Shelf Offering all Shelf Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received timely written requests for inclusion. The Company will, as expeditiously as possible (and in any event within fourteen (14) days after the receipt of a Shelf Offering Notice), but subject to <u>Section 1(e)</u>, use its best efforts to consummate such Shelf Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 any Demand Investor desires to engage in an underwritten block trade or bought deal pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement (either through filing an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement or through a take-down from an already existing Shelf Registration Statement) (each, an "<u>Underwritten Block Trade</u>"), then notwithstanding the time periods set forth in <u>Section 1(d)(i)</u>, such Demand Investor must notify the Company of the Underwritten Block Trade not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the day such offering is first anticipated to commence. If requested by such Demand Investor, the Company will promptly notify other Holders of such Underwritten Block Trade and such notified Holders (each, a "<u>Potential Participant</u>") may elect whether or not to participate no later than the next Business Day (i.e., one (1) Business Day prior to the day such offering is to commence) (unless a longer period is agreed to by the Demand Investors requesting such Demand Registration), and the Company will as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to facilitate such Underwritten Block Trade (which may close as early as two (2) Business Days after the date it commences). Any Potential Participant's request to participate in an Underwritten Block Trade shall be binding on the Potential Participant. For the avoidance of doubt, any Underwritten Block Trade shall not be deemed a marketed underwritten offering under <u>Section 1(a)</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;(iii) All determinations as to whether to complete any Shelf Offering and as to the timing, manner, price and other terms of any Shelf Offering contemplated by this <u>Section 1(d)</u> shall be determined by the Demand Investors requesting such Shelf Offering, and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause any Shelf Offering to occur in accordance with such determinations 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Company will, at the request of any Demand Investor, file any prospectus supplement or any post-effective amendments and otherwise take any action necessary to include therein all disclosure and language deemed necessary or advisable by such Demand Investor to effect such Shelf Offering, subject to, in each case, the written consent of the Participating Demand Investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Priority on Demand Registrations and Shelf Offerings</u>. The Company will not include in any Demand Registration any securities that are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Participating Demand Investors. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company, Holdings, the Kedge Investors and Other Investors may participate in any Demand Registration initiated by Holdings or the Kedge Investors, subject to the Priority Rights set forth in this <u>Section 1(e)</u>. If a Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration or a Shelf Offering is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and (if permitted hereunder) other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities (if any), which can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing or method of distribution of the offering, then the Company will include in such offering the number of Registrable Securities and other securities that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold without any such adverse effect in the following order of priority (the "<u>Priority Rights</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) <u>first</u>, 100% of any securities the Company proposes to sell;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>second</u>, 100% of the Kedge Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Kedge Investors, up to an aggregate number of shares of Common Equity equal to the Threshold <u>minus</u> all shares of Common Equity sold by the Kedge Investors prior to such offering, which amount shall not be less than zero (such net amount, the "<u>Kedge Priority Allocation</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;(iii) <u>third</u>, any remaining capacity allocated between Holdings (and, if applicable, any Distributed Holdings Investor) and the Kedge Investors, pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by such Holder at such time (not including any Registrable Securities held by the Kedge Investors which have already been allocated to the Kedge Investors as part of the Kedge Priority Allocation in such Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration in <u>Section 1(e)(ii)</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;(iv) <u>fourth</u>, if all Registrable Securities desired to be sold by each of the Company, Holdings (and, if applicable, any Distributed Holdings Investor) and the Kedge Investors are included in the offering, to any Other Investors or Persons not party to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Priority Rights shall be subject to the following additional provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)For the avoidance of doubt, the Kedge Priority Allocation shall be reduced (on a share for share basis) by the number of Registrable Securities which the Kedge Investors have previously sold through any method. Once the Kedge Investors have sold a total number of Registrable Securities equal to the Kedge Priority Allocation pursuant to clause (ii) of the Priority Rights, the Kedge Investors will no longer be entitled to any priority allocation under clause (ii).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)Holdings' and the Kedge Investors' pro rata holdings shall be calculated and fixed on the basis of the net number of Registrable Securities which are held (or deemed to be held), directly or indirectly, by Holdings (and/or any Distributed Holdings Investor) and the Kedge Investors, respectively, at the time that such Priority Rights are being applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)If Holdings distributes Registrable Securities to its members (each such member, a "<u>Holdings Member</u>"), Holdings may assign its registration rights and Priority Rights to any Holdings Member (and any of such Holdings Member's future affiliated transferees of such Registrable Securities) that, along with its Affiliates, holds a direct or indirect interest in a number of Registrable Securities which (at the time that such Priority Rights are being applied) are equal to or more than 3% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Equity as of the completion of the initial Public Offering (a "<u>Distributed Holdings Investor</u>"). The Priority Rights attributable to any Distributed Holdings Investor (together with its affiliated transferees) shall automatically terminate at such time as such Distributed Holdings Investor (together with any affiliated transferees of such Registrable Securities) ceases to hold a direct or indirect interest in a number of Registrable Securities which are equal to or more than 3% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Equity as at completion of the initial Public Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Priority Rights of the Kedge Investors shall automatically terminate at such time as the Kedge Investors no longer hold a direct or indirect interest in a number of Registrable Securities which are equal to or more than 3% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Equity as of the completion of the initial Public Offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)Any shares of Common Equity which may be acquired or sold by Holdings, the Kedge Investors or any Holdings Member (including any Distributed Holdings Investor) following completion of the initial Public Offering shall not (x) represent Registrable Securities or (y) count for any purposes in applying the Priority Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)In the event that Priority Rights are required to be allocated, each of the Company, Holdings (and, if applicable, any Distributed Holdings Investor) and the Kedge Investors shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the applicable demand or piggyback notice, deliver to the managing underwriter in writing its desired allocation. Following receipt of such notices, the parties shall request that the managing underwriter promptly provide its reasonable, good-faith opinion in writing as to the maximum offering size that can be achieved (subject to the above limitations) prior to determining the necessity of any Priority Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)See <u>Exhibit B</u> attached hereto for illustrative examples of how the Priority Rights shall be applied.

&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) <u>Restrictions on Demand Registration and Shelf Offerings</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 may postpone, for up to 30 days from the date of the request (the "<u>Suspension Period</u>"), the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration or suspend the use of a prospectus that is part of a Shelf Registration Statement (and therefore suspend sales of the Shelf Registrable Securities) by providing written notice to the Holders from the Company's Chief Executive Officer stating that the Company's Board of Directors has determined, in its reasonable, good-faith judgment, that the offer or sale of Registrable Securities would reasonably be expected to be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders because such action (A) would materially interfere with a material acquisition of assets or stock (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any material merger, consolidation, tender offer, recapitalization, reorganization, financing or other transaction involving the Company and (B) upon advice of counsel, the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement would require disclosure of material non-public information not otherwise required to be disclosed under applicable law, and either (x) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving the confidentiality of such transaction or (y) such transaction renders the Company unable to comply with SEC requirements, in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause the registration statement (or such filings) to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the registration statement on a post effective basis, as applicable. The Company may delay or suspend the effectiveness of a Demand Registration or Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this <u>Section 1(f)(i)</u> only twice in any continuous twelve (12)-month period and not for longer than 60 days in any single instance (for the avoidance of doubt, in addition to the Company's rights and obligations under <u>Section 4(a)(ii)</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;(ii) In the case of an event that causes the Company to suspend the use of a Shelf Registration Statement as set forth in <u>Section 1(f)(i)</u> above or pursuant to <u>Section 4(a)(ii)</u> (a "<u>Suspension Event</u>"), the Company will give notice to the Holders whose Registrable Securities are registered pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement (a "<u>Suspension Notice</u>") to suspend sales of the Registrable Securities and such notice must state generally the basis for the notice and that such suspension will continue only for so long as the Suspension Event or its effect is continuing. Each Holder agrees not to effect any sales of its Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement (or such filings) at any time after it has received a Suspension Notice from the Company and prior to receipt of an End of Suspension Notice. A Holder may recommence effecting sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (or such filings) following further written notice to such effect (an "<u>End of Suspension Notice</u>") from the Company, which End of Suspension Notice will be given by the Company to the Holders promptly following the conclusion of any Suspension Event (and in any event during the permitted Suspension Period).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration during the period beginning 30 days before the Company's reasonable, good-faith estimate of the date of filing or pricing of a registration with respect to which Holders are or will be entitled to a Piggyback Registration pursuant to <u>Section 2(a)</u>, and ending on the date that is 90 days after the effective date or pricing of such previous registration.

&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) <u>Selection of Counsel and Underwriters</u>. The Company shall select each of the legal counsel to the Company, the investment bank(s) and manager(s) to administer any underwritten offering in connection with any Demand Registration or Shelf Offering; <u>provided</u>, that the Demand Investor who initiates an Underwritten Block Trade shall select the investment bank(s) for any such Underwritten Block Trade.

------

&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) <u>Other Registration Rights</u>. Except as provided in this Agreement, the Company will not grant to any Person(s) the right to request the Company or any Subsidiary to register any equity securities of the Company or any Subsidiary, or any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for such securities, without the prior written consent of Holdings, and any such right shall not be enforceable unless it expressly provides that any registration must be subject to the Priority Rights and does not permit any Person(s) to breach or otherwise deviate from the Priority Rights and terms of this Agreement. The Company represents and warrants to each Holder that, as of the date of this Agreement, the Company has not entered into or agreed to enter into or provide, and there are not outstanding, any registration rights agreements or similar agreements that grant any Person the right to require or participate in the registration of any equity securities of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Revocation of Demand Notice or Shelf Offering Notice</u>. At any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to a Demand Registration or the "pricing" of any offering relating to a Shelf Offering Notice, the Demand Investor who initiated such Demand Registration or Shelf Offering may revoke or withdraw such notice of a Demand Registration or Shelf Offering Notice on behalf of all Holders participating in such Demand Registration or Shelf Offering without liability to such Holders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Participating Holdings Investors), in each case by providing written notice to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Confidentiality</u>. Each Holder agrees to treat as confidential the receipt of any notice hereunder (including notice of a Demand Registration, a Shelf Offering Notice and a Suspension Notice) and the information contained therein, and not to disclose or use the information contained in any such notice (or the existence thereof) without the prior written consent of the Company until such time as the information contained therein is or becomes available to the public generally (other than as a result of disclosure by such Holder in breach of 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;(k) <u>Fulfillment of Kedge Registration Obligations</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Demand Registration requested by the Kedge Investors shall not be deemed to have been effected, and shall not count toward the two (2) Demand Registrations in any continuous twelve (12)-month period to which the Kedge Investors are entitled under <u>Section 1(a)</u> if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 registration statement or offering does not reach pricing for any reason, including situations in which the Kedge Investors withdraw such Demand Registration prior to pricing, except if the offering does not reach pricing exclusively due to the Kedge Investors' bad faith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration by the Kedge Investors is reduced by the managing underwriters pursuant to the Priority Rights described in <u>Section 1(e)</u> by more than 20% of the number of Registrable Securities the Kedge Investors reasonably requested to include in such Demand Registration;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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, as of the date of such withdrawal, the per share stock price of the Company's Class A common stock has declined by fifteen percent (15)% or more as compared to the closing per share stock price of the Class A common stock on the date of the delivery of the Demand Notice with respect to such Demand Registration;

If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of the Company's equity securities (other than pursuant to <u>Section 1</u>), and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing or method of distribution of the offering, the Company will include in such registration the number of Registrable Securities and other securities that, in the opinion of the underwriters, can be sold without any such adverse effect in accordance with the Priority Rights set forth in <u>Section 1(e)</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;(d) <u>Right to Terminate Registration</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) <u>Company Holdback Agreement</u>. In connection with any underwritten Public Offering, the Company will, and will cause each of its directors and executive officers to, enter into any customary lock-up, holdback or similar agreements reasonably requested by the underwriter(s) managing such offering, unless approved in writing by Holdings and the underwriters managing the Public Offering and with such modifications and exceptions as may be approved by Holdings.

Section 6 <u>Indemnification and Contribution</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) <u>By the Company</u>. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law and without limitation as to time, each Holder, such Holder's officers, directors, employees, agents, fiduciaries, stockholders, managers, partners, members, Affiliates, direct and indirect equityholders, consultants and representatives, and any successors and assigns thereof, and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) (the "<u>Indemnified Parties</u>") against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses (including with respect to actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, and including reasonable attorney fees and expenses) (collectively, "<u>Losses</u>") caused by, resulting from, arising out of, based upon or related to any of the following (each, a "<u>Violation</u>") by the Company: (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in (A) any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or Free-Writing Prospectus, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or (B) any application or other document or communication (in this <u>Section 6</u>, collectively called an "<u>application</u>") executed by or on behalf of the Company or based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify any securities covered by such registration under the "blue sky" or securities laws thereof, (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated in any of the foregoing or necessary to make the statements contained in any of the foregoing, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) any Violation or alleged Violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance. In addition, the Company will reimburse such Indemnified Party

------

for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses result from, arise out of, are based upon, or relate to an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, made in such registration statement, any such prospectus, preliminary prospectus or Free-Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors, and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Indemnified Parties or as otherwise agreed to in the underwriting agreement executed in connection with such underwritten offering. Such indemnity and reimbursement of expenses shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such 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) <u>By Holders</u>. In connection with any registration statement in which a Holder is participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Company in writing such customary information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify, on a several and not joint basis, the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any Losses resulting from (as determined by a final and appealable judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction) any untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; <u>provided</u>, that the obligation to indemnify will be individual, not joint and several, for each Holder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

&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>Claim Procedure</u>. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; <u>provided</u>, that the failure to give prompt notice will impair any Person's right to indemnification hereunder only to the extent such failure has prejudiced the indemnifying party, and (ii) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties will have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the majority of the conflicted indemnified parties involved in the indemnification and approved by the Company, at the expense of the indemnifying 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;(d) <u>Contribution</u>. If the indemnification provided for in this <u>Section 6</u> is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to, or is insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party or

------

is otherwise unenforceable with respect to any Losses referred to herein, then such indemnifying party will contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) of this <u>Section 6(d)</u> is not permitted by applicable law, then in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative fault but also the relative benefit of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; <u>provided</u>, that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such contribution will be limited, in the case of each seller of Registrable Securities, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to such registration. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or, as applicable 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 and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if the contribution pursuant to this <u>Section 6(d)</u> were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account such equitable considerations. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to herein will be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim which is the subject hereof. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Release</u>. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or 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;(f) <u>Non-exclusive Remedy; Survival</u>. The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement will be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract (and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be considered the indemnitors of first resort in all such circumstances to which this <u>Section 6</u> applies) and will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of Registrable Securities and the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Section 7 <u>Cooperation with Underwritten Offerings</u>. No Person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and on the terms and conditions no less favorable than the terms and conditions applicable to the Company and/or the other holders of securities of the Company included in such underwritten registration (including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or "green shoe" option requested by the underwriters; <u>provided</u>, that no Holder will be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities such Holder has requested to include in such registration) and (ii) completes, executes and delivers all questionnaires, powers of attorney, stock powers, custody agreements, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents and agreements required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements or as may be reasonably requested by the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s). To the extent that any such agreement is entered into pursuant to, and consistent with, <u>Section 3</u>, <u>Section 4</u> and/or this <u>Section 7</u>, the respective rights and obligations created under such

------

agreement will supersede the respective rights and obligations of the Holders, the Company and the underwriters created thereby with respect to such registration.

Section 8 <u>Subsidiary Public Offering.</u> If, after an initial Public Offering of the common equity securities of one of its Subsidiaries, the Company distributes securities of such Subsidiary to its equityholders, then the rights and obligations of the Company pursuant to this Agreement will apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to such Subsidiary, and the Company will cause such Subsidiary to comply with such Subsidiary's obligations under this Agreement as if it were the Company hereunder.

Section 9 <u>Joinder; Additional Parties; Transfer of Registrable Securities</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) <u>Joinder</u>. Except with respect to the transfer of Holdings Registrable Securities by Holdings or its Affiliate transferees (in which case no consent or permission from the Company or Holdings is required), the Company may from time to time (only with the prior written consent of Holdings and subject to the qualification of this <u>Section 9</u>) permit any Person who acquires Common Equity (or rights to acquire Common Equity) to become a party to this Agreement and to be entitled to and be bound by all of the rights and obligations as a Holder by obtaining an executed joinder to this Agreement from such Person in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> attached hereto (a "<u>Joinder</u>"). Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder by such Person, the Common Equity held by such Person shall become the category of Registrable Securities (i.e., Holdings Registrable Securities, Kedge Registrable Securities or Other Investor Registrable Securities), and such Person shall be deemed the category of Holder (i.e., Kedge Investor or Other Investor), in each case as set forth on the signature page to such Joinder (only with the prior written consent of Holdings); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the prior written consent of the Kedge Investors shall be required for any Joinder pursuant to which (i) such Person would be entitled to Priority Rights at or above the Kedge Priority Allocation set forth in <u>Section 1(e)(ii)</u>, or (ii) such Person would be entitled to participate in the Priority Rights set forth in <u>Section 1(e)(iii)</u> (except that the foregoing (ii) shall not apply to any Person who is issued Common Equity by the Company in circumstances whereby the Company in good faith deems such issuance to be in the reasonable best interest of the Company and its shareholders, including in connection with any acquisition by the Company of another company or assets); <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that in a transfer of Holdings Registrable Securities by Holdings or its Affiliate transferees, Holdings shall have the right to designate the category of Registrable Securities to be received by such transferee and such Person shall be deemed the category of Holder as designated by Holdings (except that any such Affiliate transferee shall not be designated a Kedge Investor, and their Registrable Securities shall not be deemed Kedge Registrable Securities, without the prior written consent of the Kedge Investors, and any such Affiliate transferee shall not be designated a Distributed Holdings Investor unless such Affiliates holds a direct or indirect interest in a number of Registrable Securities equal to or more than 3% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Equity as of the completion of the initial Public Offering pursuant to <u>Section 1(e))</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) <u>Restrictions on Transfers</u>. Prior to transferring any Registrable Securities to any Person (including, without limitation, by operation of law), the transferring Holder must cause the prospective transferee to execute and deliver to the Company a Joinder (which shall be subject to the prior written consent of Holdings, except in the case of any Affiliate transfers pursuant to <u>Section 11(e)</u>); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the prior written consent of the Kedge Investors shall be required for any such Joinder pursuant to which such prospective transferee would be entitled to Priority Rights at or above the Kedge Priority Allocation set forth in <u>Section 1(e)(ii)</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that such Joinder shall not be required in the case of (i) a transfer to the Company, (ii) a Public Offering, (iii) a sale pursuant to Rule 144 after the completion of the initial Public Offering and/or (iv) a transfer in connection with a Sale of the Company. Any transfer or attempted transfer of Registrable Securities in violation of any provision of this Agreement will be void, and the Company will not record such transfer on its books or treat any purported

------

## transferee of such Registrable Securities as the owner thereof for any purpose (but the Company will be entitled to enforce against such Person the obligations hereunder).
&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>Legend</u>. Each certificate (if any) or book entry form evidencing any Registrable Securities and each certificate issued in exchange for or upon the transfer of any Registrable Securities (unless such Registrable Securities would no longer be Registrable Securities after such transfer) will be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

## "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF APRIL 15, 2026 AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (THE " <u>COMPANY</u> ") AND CERTAIN OF THE COMPANY'S EQUITYHOLDERS, AS AMENDED AND/OR RESTATED. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST."

## The Company will imprint such legend on certificates evidencing Registrable Securities outstanding prior to the date hereof. The legend set forth above will be removed from the certificates evidencing any securities that have ceased to be Registrable Securities.
Section 10 <u>Effectiveness</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in his Agreement, no Holder shall have any rights hereunder with respect to the registration or sale of any Registrable Securities or any other securities at any time prior to the date that is two years and one day after the issuance of Common Equity upon consummation of the closing of the Company's initial Public Offering.

Section 11 <u>General Provisions</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) <u>Amendments and Waivers</u>. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company and Holdings; <u>provided</u>, that no such amendment, modification or waiver that would treat a specific Holder or group of Holders of Registrable Securities (i.e., Holdings, the Kedge Investors or Other Investors) materially adversely will be effective against such Holder or group of Holders without the consent of each Holder that is materially adversely affected thereby (except that for the purposes of this <u>Section 11</u>, the Kedge Investors shall be deemed a single Holder). The failure or delay of any Person to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and will not affect the right of such Person thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. A waiver or consent to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of his, her or its obligations under this Agreement will not be deemed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person under 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;(b) <u>Remedies</u>. The parties to this Agreement will be entitled to enforce their rights under this Agreement specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that a breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable harm and money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach and that, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing hereunder, any party will be entitled to specific performance and/or other

------

injunctive relief from any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Severability</u>. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited, invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or regulation in any jurisdiction, such prohibition, invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such prohibited, invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

&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>Entire Agreement</u>. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement contains the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit and be enforceable by the Company and its successors and permitted assigns. Holdings and the Kedge Investors may assign their respective rights hereunder to their respective Affiliates; <u>provided</u>, that such purchaser or transferee shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment, be required to cause such prospective transferee to execute and deliver to the Company a Joinder. Except as otherwise provided herein, the rights under this Agreement are personal to the Holders and are not assignable without the prior written consent of each of the Company, Holdings and Kedge.

THIS DIRECTOR NOMINATION AGREEMENT (this "<u>Agreement</u>") is made and entered into as of April 15, 2026, by and among Madison Air Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), and Madison Industries Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("<u>Holdings</u>"), an entity controlled by the Company's founder, Larry W. Gies (the "<u>Founder</u>"). This Agreement shall be effective from the date hereof (the "<u>Effective Date</u>").

WHEREAS, the Company intends to consummate an initial public offering of shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0000001 ("<u>Class A common stock</u>," together with the Company's Class B common stock, the "<u>Common Stock</u>"); and

WHEREAS, in connection with such events, the parties hereto desire to provide for certain governance rights and other matters with respect to the Company upon the effectiveness of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree, subject to <u>Section 13</u> as follows:

1. <u>Board Nomination Rights</u>.

(a) From the Effective Date, (A) Holdings shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate to the Board a number of nominees equal to at least: (i) all of the nominees for election to our Board for so long as Holdings beneficially owns 50% or more of the Original Amount; (ii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 50% of the total directors for so long as Holdings beneficially owns more than 40% and up to 50% of the Original Amount; (iii) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 40% of the total directors for so long as Holdings beneficially owns over 30% and up to 40% of the Original Amount; (iv) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 30% of the total directors for so long as Holdings beneficially owns more than 20% and up to 30% of the Original Amount; (v) a number of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 20% of the total directors for so long as Holdings beneficially owns more than 10% and up to 20% of the Original Amount; and (vi) a number of director nominees (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to 10% of the total directors for so long as Holdings beneficially owns more than 5% and up to 10% of the Original Amount (such persons, the "<u>Nominees</u>"). For purposes of calculating the number of Directors that Holdings is entitled to nominate pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, any fractional amounts shall automatically be rounded up to the nearest whole number (e.g., 1 ¼ Directors shall equate to 2 Directors) and any such calculations shall be made after taking into account any increase in the total number of Directors. Upon the death or Disability of the Founder, Holdings will no longer hold the nomination rights specified in (i) through (vi).

------

(b) In the event that Holdings has nominated less than the total number of nominees that Holdings shall be entitled to nominate pursuant to <u>Section 1(a)</u>, Holdings shall have the right, at any time, to nominate such additional nominees to which it is entitled, in which case, the Company and the Directors shall take all necessary corporation action, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including with respect to fiduciary duties under Delaware law), to (x) cause the Holdings nominee to be elected to the Board, either by filling any vacancy on the Board created when a director previously nominated by Holdings ceased to be a director, or, if there is no such vacancy to fill, by increasing the size of the Board by the number necessary to create a directorship for the Holdings nominee and filling such newly created directorship(s) with the individual nominated by Holdings.

(c) The Company shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Nominee in connection with the performance of his or her duties as a director and in connection with his or her attendance at any meeting of the Board.

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)"<u>Affiliate</u>" of any person shall mean any other person controlled by, controlling or under common control with such person; where "<u>control</u>" (including, with its correlative meanings, "<u>controlling</u>," "<u>controlled by</u>" and "<u>under common control with</u>") means possession, directly or indirectly, of power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies (whether through ownership of securities, by contract or otherwise).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)"<u>Beneficially Own</u>" shall mean that a specified person has or shares the right, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, to vote and/or dispose of (or to direct the voting and/or disposition of) any shares of capital stock of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)"<u>Director</u>" means any member of the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)"<u>Disability</u>" means with respect to an individual, permanent and total disability such that the individual is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable mental impairment which would reasonably be expected to result in death or which has lasted or would reasonably be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months as determined by a licensed medical practitioner. In the event of a dispute whether the individual has suffered a Disability, no Disability of the individual shall be deemed to have occurred unless and until an affirmative ruling regarding such Disability has been made by a court of competent jurisdiction, and such ruling has become final and nonappealable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)"<u>Original Amount</u>" means, with respect to Holdings, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock held, directly or indirectly, by Holdings immediately following the closing of the IPO, as such number may be adjusted from time to time for any reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar changes in the Company's capitalization. As of the Effective Date, the Original Amount of Holdings is equal to 324,379,859.

------

(e) No reduction in the number of shares of Common Stock that Holdings Beneficially Owns shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. At the Effective Date, the Board shall be comprised of 4 members.

(f) In the event that any Nominee shall cease to serve for any reason, Holdings shall be entitled to designate such person's successor in accordance with this Agreement (regardless of Holdings' Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock at the time of such vacancy) and the Board shall promptly fill the vacancy with such successor nominee; it being understood that any such designee shall serve the remainder of the term of the director whom such designee replaces.

(g) If a Nominee is not appointed or elected to the Board because of such person's death, disability, disqualification, withdrawal as a nominee or for any other reason is unavailable or unable to serve on the Board, Holdings shall be entitled to designate promptly another nominee and the director position for which the original Nominee was nominated shall not be filled pending such designation.

(h) So long as Holdings has the right to nominate at least one Nominee under <u>Section 1(a)</u> or any such Nominee is serving on the Board, the Company shall maintain in effect at all times directors and officers indemnity insurance coverage reasonably satisfactory to Holdings, and the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws (each as may be further amended, supplemented or waived in accordance with its terms) shall at all times provide for indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

(i) At any time that Holdings shall have any nomination rights under <u>Section 1(a)</u>, the Company shall not increase or decrease the number of Directors serving on the Board without the prior written consent of Holdings.

(j) At such time as the Company ceases to be a "controlled company" and is required by applicable law or the New York Stock Exchange (the "<u>Exchange</u>") listing standards to have a majority of the Board comprised of "independent directors" (subject in each case to any applicable phase-in periods), the Nominees shall include a number of persons that qualify as "independent directors" under applicable law and the Exchange listing standards such that, together with any other "independent directors" then serving on the Board that are not Nominees, the Board is comprised of a majority of "independent directors."; provided that at any time that Holdings shall have any nomination rights under <u>Section 1(a)</u>, Holdings shall be entitled to nominate at least one Nominee who does not qualify as an "independent director."

(k) At any time that Holdings shall have any nomination rights under <u>Section 1(a)</u>, the Company shall not take any action, including making or recommending any amendment to Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (each as may be further amended, supplemented or waived in accordance with its terms) that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect Holdings' rights under this Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of Holdings.

------

(l) The Company recognizes that each Nominee (i) will from time to time receive non-public information concerning the Company, and (ii) may share such information with other individuals associated with Holdings that designated such Nominee. The Company hereby irrevocably consents to such sharing. Holdings agrees that it will keep confidential and not disclose or divulge to any third party any confidential information regarding the Company it receives from the Company or a Nominee, unless such information (x) is available or becomes available to the public in general, (y) is or has been independently developed or conceived by Holdings without use of the Company's confidential information or (z) is or has been made known or disclosed to Holdings by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that Holdings may disclose confidential information (I) to its Affiliates (other than portfolio companies), (II) to each of its and its Affiliate's (other than portfolio companies) attorneys, accountants, consultants, advisors and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with evaluating the information, or (III) as may be required by law or legal, judicial or regulatory process or requested by any regulatory or self-regulatory authority or examiner, provided that Holdings takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any required disclosure.

2. <u>Company Obligations</u>. The Company agrees that prior to the date that Holdings ceases to Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock representing at least 5% of the total voting power of the then outstanding Common Stock, (i) each Nominee is included in the Board's slate of nominees to the stockholders (the "<u>Board's Slate</u>") for each election of members of the Board; and (ii) each Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board (each, a "<u>Director Election Proxy Statement</u>"), and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board. Holdings will promptly report to the Company after Holdings ceases to Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock representing at least 5% of the Original Amount, such that the Company is informed of when this obligation terminates. The calculation of the number of Nominees that Holdings is entitled to nominate to the Board's Slate for any election of directors shall be based on the percentage of the total voting power of the then outstanding Common Stock then Beneficially Owned by Holdings ("<u>Holdings Voting Control</u>") immediately prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to such election (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission). Unless Holdings notifies the Company otherwise prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to an election of directors (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), the Nominees for such election shall be presumed to be the same Nominees currently serving on the Board, and no further action shall be required of Holdings for the Board to include such Nominees on the Board's Slate; provided, that, in the event Holdings is no longer entitled to nominate the full number of Nominees then serving on the Board, Holdings shall provide advance written notice to the Company of which currently servicing Nominee(s) shall be excluded from the Board Slate, and of any other changes to the list of Nominees. If Holdings fails to provide such notice prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to such election (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), a majority of the "independent directors" then serving on the Board

------

shall determine which of the nominees in the class up for election in the next annual meeting then serving on the Board will be included in the Board's Slate. Furthermore, the Company agrees for so long as the Company qualifies as a "controlled company" under the rules of the Exchange the Company will elect to be a "controlled company" for purposes of the Exchange and will disclose in its annual meeting proxy statement that it is a "controlled company" and the basis for that determination. The Company and Holdings acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date, the Company is a "controlled company." The Company agrees to provide written notice of the preparation of a Director Election Proxy Statement to Holdings at least 20 business days, but no more than 40 business days, prior to the earlier of the mailing and the filing date of any Director Election Proxy Statement.

3. <u>Amendment and Waiver</u>. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and Holdings, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. 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 law. Holdings shall not be obligated to nominate all (or any) of the Nominees it is entitled to nominate pursuant to this Agreement for any election of directors but the failure to do so shall not constitute a waiver of its rights hereunder with respect to future elections; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that in the event Holdings fails to nominate all (or any) of the Nominees it is entitled to nominate pursuant to this Agreement prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to such election (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), the Compensation and Nominating Committee of the Board shall be entitled to nominate individuals in lieu of such Nominees for inclusion in the Board's Slate and the applicable Director Election Proxy Statement with respect to the election for which such failure occurred and Holdings shall be deemed to have waived its rights under <u>Section 1</u> and <u>Section 2</u> with respect to such election (but solely with respect to such election and not any subsequent election); provided, further, however, that any such waiver shall only be effective if the Company has provided written notice to Holdings of such Director Election Proxy Statement no less than 20 business days, and no more than 40 business days, prior to the earlier of the mailing or filing date of such Director Election Proxy Statement. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

4. <u>Benefit of Parties</u>. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Holdings. Except as otherwise expressly provided in <u>Section 6</u> and the last sentence of <u>Section 7(b)</u>, nothing herein contained shall confer or is intended to confer on any third party or entity that is not a party to this Agreement any rights under this Agreement.

5. <u>Assignment</u>. Upon written notice to the Company, Holdings may assign to any of its Affiliates (other than a portfolio company) all of its rights hereunder and, following such assignment, such assignee shall be deemed to be "<u>Holdings</u>" for all purposes hereunder but no such assignment shall relieve the assignor of any of its obligations hereunder.

------

6. <u>Indemnification.</u> The Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Holdings, its respective Affiliates, partners, employees, agents, directors, managers, officers and controlling persons (collectively, the "<u>Indemnified Parties</u>") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses, or other obligations of any kind or nature (whether accrued or fixed, absolute or contingent) in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Indemnified Parties before or after the date of this Agreement (each, an "<u>Action</u>") arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, (i) Holdings or its Affiliates' Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company or control or ability to influence the Company or any of its subsidiaries (other than, in the case of any Indemnified Party, any such Actions (x) to the extent such Actions arise out of any breach of this Agreement by such Indemnified Party or its Affiliates or the breach of any fiduciary or other duty or obligation of such Indemnified Party to its direct or indirect equity holders, creditors or Affiliates or (y) to the extent such Actions are directly caused by such Indemnified Party's willful misconduct), (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) any services provided prior, on or after the date of this Agreement by Holdings or its Affiliates to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

The Company shall defend at its own cost and expense any and all Actions which may be brought in which the Indemnified Parties may be impleaded with others upon any Action by the Indemnified Parties, except that if such Actions shall be proven to be the direct result of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by any of the Indemnified Parties, then such Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Company for the costs of defense and other costs incurred by the Company in proportion to such Indemnified Party's culpability as proven. In the event of the assertion against any Indemnified Party of any Action or the commencement of any Action, the Company shall be entitled to participate in such Action and in the investigation of such Action and, after written notice from the Company to such Indemnified Party, to assume the investigation or defense of such Action with counsel of the Company's choice at the Company's expense; provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may retain one firm of counsel to represent all Indemnified Parties in such Action; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ a single firm of separate counsel (and any necessary local counsel) and to participate in the defense or investigation of such Action and the Company shall bear the expense of such separate counsel (and local counsel, if applicable), if (x) in the opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party use of counsel of the Company's choice could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest, (y) the Company shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to represent the Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of the assertion of any such Action or (z) the Company shall authorize the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at the Company's expense. The Company further agrees that with respect to any Indemnified Party who is employed, retained or otherwise associated with, or appointed or nominated by, Holdings or any of its Affiliates and who acts or serves as a director, officer, manager, fiduciary, employee, consultant, advisor or agent of, for or to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, that the Company or such subsidiaries, as applicable, shall be primarily liable for all indemnification, reimbursements, advancements or similar payments (the "<u>Indemnity Obligations</u>") afforded to such Indemnified Party acting in such capacity or capacities on behalf or at the request of the Company, whether the Indemnity

No failure of any Party to exercise any right or remedy given to such Party under this Agreement or otherwise available to such Party or to insist upon strict compliance by any other Party with its obligations hereunder, and no custom or practice in variance with the terms hereof, shall constitute a waiver of any Party's right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof. Any written waiver shall be limited to those items specifically waived therein and shall not be deemed to waive any future breaches or violations or other non-specified breaches or violations unless, and to the extent, expressly set forth therein.

Section 4.3 <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the express written consent of the other Parties.

Section 4.4 <u>Severability</u>. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or if such term or provision could be drawn more narrowly so as not to be illegal, invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall be so narrowly drawn, as to such jurisdiction, without invalidating the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 4.5 <u>Counterparts; Binding Agreement</u>. This Agreement may be executed in two or more separate counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party, but each of which will be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on both of the Parties.

Section 4.6 <u>Descriptive Headings; Interpretation</u>. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement.

The aforementioned choice of venue is intended by the Parties to be mandatory and not permissive in nature, thereby precluding the possibility of litigation between the Parties with respect to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any jurisdiction other than those specified in this <u>Section 4.8</u>. A final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

------

This Agreement and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of electronic transmission in portable document format (.pdf) or comparable electronic transmission, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

*Section 7.01 Assistance and Cooperation*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties shall cooperate in good faith (and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate) with each other and with each other's agents, including accounting firms and legal counsel, in connection with Tax matters relating to the Parties and their Affiliates including (i) preparing and filing of Tax Returns, (ii) determining the liability for, and amount of, any Taxes due (including estimated Taxes) or the right to, and amount of, any refund of Taxes, (iii) examinations of Tax Returns, and (iv) any administrative or judicial proceeding in respect of Taxes assessed or proposed to be assessed. Such cooperation shall include making all information and documents in their possession relating to the other Party and its Affiliates available to such other Party as provided in <u>Section 8</u>, and providing such assistance as is commercially reasonable in connection therewith. Each of the Parties shall also make available to the other Party, as reasonably requested and available, personnel (including officers, directors, employees and agents of the Parties or their respective Affiliates) responsible for preparing, maintaining, and interpreting information and documents relevant to Taxes, and personnel reasonably required as witnesses or for purposes of providing information or documents in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes.

Air PubCo shall cooperate with RemainCo and take any and all actions reasonably requested by RemainCo in connection with obtaining the Tax Opinions/Rulings (including, without limitation, by making any new representation or covenant, confirming any previously made representation or covenant or providing any materials or information requested by any Tax Advisor or Tax Authority; <u>provided</u> that, Air PubCo shall not be required to make or confirm any representation or covenant that is inconsistent with historical facts or as to future matters or events over which it has no control).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, (i) neither RemainCo nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to provide Air PubCo, its Affiliates or any other Person access to or copies of any information, documents or procedures (including the proceedings of any Tax Contest) other than information, documents or procedures that relate to Air PubCo, its business, assets or Affiliates and (ii) in no event shall RemainCo or any of its Affiliates be required to provide Air PubCo, its Affiliates or any other Person access to or copies of any information or documents if such action could reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of any Privilege. In addition, in the event that RemainCo determines that the provision of any information or documents to Air PubCo or its Affiliates could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or agreement, or waive any Privilege, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to permit compliance with its obligations under this <u>Section 7</u> in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

The Parties acknowledge that time is of the essence in relation to any request for information, assistance or cooperation made by the Parties pursuant to <u>Section 7.01</u> or this <u>Section 7.02</u>. The Parties acknowledge that failure to conform to the reasonable deadlines set by the Parties could cause irreparable harm. Each Party shall provide to the other Party information and documents relating to its respective Group required by such other Party to prepare Tax Returns, including, but not limited to, any pro forma Tax Returns required by the Preparing Party for purposes of preparing such Tax Returns.

*Section 7.04 Reliance by Air PubCo*. If any member of the RemainCo Group supplies information to a member of the Air PubCo Group in connection with a Tax liability and an officer of a member of the Air PubCo Group signs a statement or other document under penalties of perjury in reliance upon the accuracy of such information, then upon the written request of such member of the Air PubCo Group, identifying the information being so relied upon, the chief financial officer of RemainCo (or any officer of RemainCo as designated by the chief financial officer of RemainCo) shall certify in writing that to his or her knowledge (based upon consultation with appropriate employees) the information so supplied is accurate and complete.

**Section 8. Tax Records**.

*Section 8.01 Retention of Tax Records*. Each Party shall preserve and keep all Tax Records exclusively relating to the assets and activities of its respective Group for any Pre-Distribution Period, and RemainCo shall preserve and keep all other Tax Records relating to Taxes of the Groups for any Pre-Distribution Period, for so long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (i) the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitations, or (ii) ten (10) years after the Distribution Date (such later date, the "**Retention Date**"). After the Retention Date, each Party may dispose of such Tax Records. If, prior to the Retention Date, (a) a Party reasonably determines that any Tax Records which it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this <u>Section 8</u> are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Party consents in writing, then such first Party may dispose of such Tax Records upon sixty (60) business days' prior notice to the other Party. Any notice of an intent to dispose given pursuant to this <u>Section 8.01</u> shall include a list of the Tax Records to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail each such Tax Record being disposed. The notified Party shall have the opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy or remove, within such sixty (60) business day period, all or any part of such Tax Records. If, at any time prior to the Retention Date,

------

Air PubCo determines to decommission or otherwise discontinue any computer program or information technology system used to access or store any Tax Records, then Air PubCo may decommission or discontinue such program or system upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to RemainCo and RemainCo shall have the opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy, within such ninety (90) business day period, all or any part of the underlying data relating to the Tax Records accessed by or stored on such program or system.

*Section 8.02 Access to Tax Records*. Each Party and its respective Affiliates shall make available to the other Party for inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax Records (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any pertinent underlying data accessed or stored on any computer program or information technology system) in their possession and shall permit such other Party and its Subsidiaries, authorized agents and representatives and any representative of a Tax Authority or other Tax auditor direct access during normal business hours, upon reasonable written notice and at the cost and expense of such other Party, to any computer program or information technology system used to access or store any Tax Records, in each case to the extent reasonably required by such other Party in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns or financial accounting statements, audits, litigation, or the resolution of items under this Agreement.

*Section 8.03 Preservation of Privilege*. No member of the Air PubCo Group shall provide access to, copies of, or otherwise disclose to any Person any documentation relating to Taxes existing prior to the Distribution Date to which Privilege may reasonably be asserted without the prior written consent of RemainCo (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

**Section 9. Tax Contests**.

Section 9.01 *Notice*. If any Party becomes aware of any written communication from a Tax Authority regarding any pending Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest which, if successful, could reasonably be expected to result in an indemnification obligation under this Agreement, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing. Such notice shall attach copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Tax Authority in respect of any such matters. If an indemnified Party has knowledge of an asserted Tax liability with respect to a matter for which it is to be indemnified hereunder and such Party fails to give the indemnifying Party prompt notice of such asserted Tax liability and the indemnifying Party is entitled under this Agreement to contest the asserted Tax liability, then (i) if the indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of the failure to give prompt notice, the indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify the indemnified Party for any Taxes arising out of such asserted Tax liability, and (ii) if the indemnifying Party is not precluded from contesting the asserted Tax liability in any forum, but such failure to give prompt notice results in a material monetary detriment to the indemnifying Party, then any amount which the indemnifying Party is otherwise required to pay the indemnified Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of such detriment.

*Section 9.02 Control of Tax Contests*.

&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) *Joint Returns*.

------

to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that such Non-Controlling Party is actually harmed by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve such Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling 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;(f) *Tax Contest Participation*. Unless waived by the Parties in writing, (i) the Controlling Party shall provide the Non-Controlling Party with written notice reasonably in advance of, and such Non-Controlling Party shall have the right to attend (at its own cost and expense), any formally scheduled meetings with Tax Authorities or hearings or proceedings before any judicial authorities and (ii) the Parties shall cooperate in good faith and the Controlling Party shall consider any reasonable comments from the Non-Controlling Party in connection with any potential adjustment in a Tax Contest pursuant to which such Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to (1) become liable to make any indemnification payment to the Controlling Party under this Agreement or (2) become subject to a material increase in Taxes for any Post-Distribution Period. The failure of the Controlling Party to provide such written notice specified in this <u>Section 9.02(f)</u> to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve such Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that such Non-Controlling Party is actually harmed by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve such Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party.

**Section 10. Effective Date**. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date hereof.

**Section 11. Survival of Obligations**. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time.

**Section 12. Tax Treatment of Payments**. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, including the principles set forth in *Arrowsmith v. Commissioner*, 344 U.S. 6 (1952), unless otherwise required by a Final Determination, this Agreement or the Separation Agreement or otherwise agreed to among the Parties, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, any payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as follows: (a) to the extent the member or assets of the payor Group and the member or assets of the payee Group to which the liability for payment relates were separated in a tax-free contribution or tax-free distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such payment shall be treated as a tax-free contribution or tax-free distribution, as applicable, with respect to the stock of the applicable member of the payee Group or payor Group, occurring immediately prior to the relevant transaction in the Distributions or the Contribution, as applicable; (b) to the extent the member or assets of the payor Group and the member or assets of the payee Group to which the liability for payment relates were separated in a taxable transaction

------

for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such payment shall be treated as an adjustment to the price or amount, as applicable, of the relevant transaction in the Distributions or the Contribution, as applicable; and (c) payments of interest shall be treated as deductible by the indemnifying Party or its relevant Subsidiary and as income to the Indemnitee or its relevant Subsidiary, as applicable. In the case of each of the foregoing, no Party shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment. In the event that a Tax Authority asserts that a Party's treatment of a payment pursuant to this Agreement should be other than as set forth in this <u>Section 12</u>, such Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to contest such challenge.

**Section 13. Disagreements**.

Section 13.01 *Discussion*. The Parties will, and will cause their respective Group members to, use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve in an amicable manner all disagreements and misunderstandings in connection with their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute or disagreement (a "**Dispute**") between any members of the Groups as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the performance of obligations hereunder, the Tax departments of the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such Dispute.

Section 13.02 *Escalation*. If good faith negotiations do not resolve a Dispute, then such Dispute (other than any Dispute involving computational matters or the interpretation of operative Tax Law, which shall be governed exclusively by <u>Section 13.03</u>) shall be resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article IV of the Separation Agreement.

*Section 13.03 Referral to Tax Advisor*. If good faith negotiations do not resolve a Dispute involving computational matters or the interpretation of operative Tax Law, such Dispute will be referred to a Tax Advisor acceptable to each of the Parties to act as an arbitrator in order to resolve the Dispute. In the event that the Parties are unable to agree upon a Tax Advisor within fifteen (15) business days following the completion of the escalation process or the event of a Dispute involving technical Tax matters, the Parties shall each separately retain an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm (each, a "**Preliminary Tax Advisor**"), which Preliminary Tax Advisors shall jointly select a Tax Advisor on behalf of the Parties to act as an arbitrator in order to resolve the Dispute. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third-party appraiser, accounting firm or consultant that the Tax Advisor deems necessary to assist it in resolving such disagreement. The Tax Advisor shall furnish written notice to the Parties of its resolution of any such Dispute as soon as practical, but in any event no later than thirty (30) business days after its acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor will be conclusive and binding on the Parties. Following receipt of the Tax Advisor's written notice to the Parties of its resolution of the Dispute, the Parties shall each take or cause to be taken any action necessary to implement such resolution of the Tax Advisor. Each Party shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its representatives) incurred in connection with the referral of the matter to the Tax Advisor (and the Preliminary Tax Advisors, if any). All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor (and the Preliminary Tax Advisors, if any) in connection with such referral shall be shared equally by the Parties.

------

*Section 13.04 Injunctive Relief*. Nothing in this <u>Section 13</u> will prevent any Party from seeking injunctive relief if any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve a Dispute through the process set forth in this <u>Section 13</u> could result in serious and irreparable injury to any Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, RemainCo and Air PubCo are the only members of their respective Group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of RemainCo and Air PubCo will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such Party as provided in this <u>Section 13</u>.

**Section 14. Expenses**. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, with respect to any third-party expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement for which both Parties are reasonably expected to bear any liability for Taxes under this Agreement, (i) RemainCo shall be responsible for, and shall bear, the RemainCo Fixed Ratio of such expenses, and (ii) Air PubCo shall be responsible for, and shall bear, the Air PubCo Fixed Ratio of such expenses. Except for expenses described in the immediately preceding sentence, each Party and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses.

**Section 15. General Provisions**.

*Section 15.01 Addresses and Notices*. Each Party giving any notice required or permitted under this Agreement will give such notice in writing and use one of the following methods of delivery to the Party to be notified, at the address set forth below or another address of which the sending Party has been notified in accordance with this <u>Section 15.01</u>: (a) personal delivery; (b) facsimile or telecopy transmission with a reasonable method of confirming transmission; (c) commercial overnight courier with a reasonable method of confirming delivery; or (d) pre-paid, United States of America certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

# ARTICLE III
**PROVISION OF SERVICES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1 <u>Provisions of Transition Services</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;(a) <u>Transition Services</u>. For purposes of this Agreement, the Party providing the Services (as defined below) (or on whose behalf the Services are being provided) is referred to as the "<u>Provider</u>" with respect to such Services, and the Party receiving the Services is referred to as the "<u>Recipient</u>" with respect to such Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the applicable Provider shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the applicable Recipient and its Affiliates (i) (A) solely for the benefit of the Madison Air Business, the services to be provided by such Provider as described, and on the terms set forth, in <u>Schedule A</u> attached hereto and (B) solely for the benefit of the MII Business, the services to be provided by such Provider as described, and on the terms set forth, in <u>Schedule A</u> attached hereto, which terms are incorporated herein by reference, and (ii) all services reasonably required to affect an orderly transition or migrate away from the provision of the services set forth on <u>Schedule A</u> to such Recipient (which may include data cleansing, extraction, and migration, knowledge transfer, and reasonable access to personnel and facilities) (collectively, the "<u>Services</u>") for the period commencing upon the Effective Date and ending upon the expiration of the applicable term for such Service as set forth in the Service Schedule, unless such term is earlier terminated or extended in accordance with the terms hereof. Except as may otherwise be agreed upon by the Parties with respect to Omitted Services, Additional Services and Modifications, (i) each Provider shall be required to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services for the sole purpose of conducting the Madison Air Business or the MII Business substantially as conducted immediately prior to the Effective Date, (ii) each Provider shall provide, or cause to be provided, the Services to the extent (and in the manner) such Services have been provided by such Provider and its Affiliates for the Madison Air Business's or MII Business' operation prior to the Effective Date, and (iii) the Services will reflect the activities conducted by the Provider at steady state operations, representing the Madison Air Business's or MII Business' historical normal course of business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither a Provider nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to provide any Service to the extent the performance of such Service would require the Provider or its Affiliates to violate any Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Omitted Services</u>. If a Recipient believes that a service historically provided by Provider or its Affiliates to the Madison Air Business or the MII Business, as applicable, in the twelve (12) months preceding the Effective Date (the "<u>Lookback Period</u>") was omitted from <u>Schedule A</u> (any such service, an "<u>Omitted Service</u>"), then such Recipient may notify the Provider in writing including via email, and upon receipt of such notice, the Provider shall provide such Omitted Service to the Recipient and such Omitted Service shall be deemed to be automatically added as a Service for purposes of this Agreement. The Parties shall promptly cooperate to identify and document the scope and pricing for each such Omitted Service and such Omitted Service shall become a Service for all purposes under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that the pricing of such Omitted Service shall be determined in accordance with <u>Section 3.4</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;(c) <u>Additional Services and Modifications</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;(i) During the Term, the Recipient may identify and request that the Provider provide, or cause to be provided, additional transition services that are not Omitted Services or Modifications to the extent such services are reasonably necessary and may have been historically provided by Provider for (i) the operation and conduct of the Madison Air Business in substantially

------

the same manner as it was conducted prior to the Effective Date or (ii) Recipient to transition and migrate the Madison Air Business to Recipient or it is Affiliates (each such service, an "<u>Additional Service</u>"). If it is commercially reasonable for the Provider or one or more of its Affiliates to provide such Additional Service and the Provider or one or more of its Affiliates is reasonably capable of providing such Additional Service, then the Provider will consider such request and the provision of such services in good faith but shall only have an obligation hereunder to agree to provide such Additional Service to Recipient if it is reasonably capable of providing such Additional Service and if it is commercially reasonable for Provider to provide such Additional Service and the Parties agree in good faith on commercially reasonable terms for the provision of such Additional Service; <u>provided</u> that the Recipient of such Additional Service shall be responsible for all non-de minimis costs and expenses, if any, incurred by the Provider or one of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith. The Provider shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days after the date of receipt of such request, inform Recipient as to whether Provider agrees to provide such Additional Service and may, in its sole discretion, provide a written counter proposal with respect to such Additional Service. If the Provider agrees to provide or cause to be provided such Additional Service, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate and execute an amendment to <u>Schedule A</u> as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon execution of such amendment, any Additional Service described in such amendment shall be included in <u>Schedule A</u> and shall be considered a Service for purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Without limiting Recipient's rights under <u>Section 3.1(c)(i)</u> above, either Party may request in writing any modification, supplement, substitute or alteration (each, a "<u>Modification</u>") to a Service, which request shall include a description of the proposed Modification requested and the associated business specifications. If the Provider or one or more of its Affiliates is reasonably capable of providing such Modification to a Service, then the Provider will consider such request and the provision of such services in good faith but shall only have an obligation hereunder to agree to provide such Modification to Recipient if it is reasonably capable of providing such Modification and the Parties agree in good faith on commercially reasonable terms for the provision of such Modification. If the Provider agrees to provide or causes to be provided such Modification, then the Provider shall provide the Recipient with a good-faith, reasonable, written proposal in respect of such Modification, which proposal shall include any changes in the Fees associated with the Modification. For the avoidance of doubt, any Modification proposed by the Recipient shall be considered in good faith by the Provider, and a Modification shall not be binding on the Parties until memorialized in a written document executed by an authorized representative of both 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Performance Standards</u>. The Provider shall perform the Services in all cases in a good and workmanlike manner with appropriately experienced and qualified personnel and the Services and Provider in its performance of the Services shall comply in all material respects with applicable Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, the Provider will, or will cause its Affiliates to, provide the Services (i) in a manner, and at a level of service (including with respect to quality, skill, performance, diligence, and timeliness) as such Service was provided to the Madison Air Business or the MII Business, as applicable, during the Lookback Period and with at least a comparable (and no less than a reasonable) standard of service (including with respect to quality, skill, performance, diligence, and timeliness) that the Provider gives to its own operations of a similar nature, and (ii) in accordance with any additional services standards for such Service set forth on <u>Schedule A</u>. The foregoing standards (including as set forth in <u>Schedule A</u>) shall be referred to herein as the "<u>Services Standards</u>." A Provider shall have the right to temporarily interrupt or suspend (i) the provision of

------

Services for emergency maintenance or security purposes; or (ii) the operation of the facilities or systems of the Provider or its Affiliates providing any Services if it is the commercially reasonable judgment of such Provider or its Affiliates that such action is necessary for routine maintenance, security or safety purposes; provided, that, the Provider will (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule non-emergency maintenance that may impact the provision of Services so as not to materially disrupt the operation of the Madison Air Business or MII Business, (B) give Recipient advance written notice of any planned shutdown for general maintenance and will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Recipient advance notice of any shutdown for emergency purposes, and (C) resume the provision of Services as promptly as reasonably possible.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Third Party Consents</u>. Madison and Madison Air will use reasonable best efforts to identify whether the use or provision of all or a portion of the Services pursuant to this Agreement requires the approval, consent, license, permission, waiver or agreement (including any Permit) of a third party (each a "<u>Consent</u>"). If Madison and Madison Air identify any required Consents, then Madison and Madison Air shall each use reasonable best efforts to seek and obtain each such Consent from such third party or to modify any applicable contract to enable the Provider to provide such Services to the Recipient without such Consent. Any cost required to be paid to a third party to obtain any such Consent shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Madison and fifty percent (50%) by Madison Air. If any required Consent or modification cannot be obtained as a result of such efforts, then Provider will use its commercially reasonable efforts to collaborate with the Recipient to provide alternative equivalent services, reasonably acceptable to the Recipient, in a manner compliant in all material respects with the Services Standards and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Service Failure</u>. In the event that the Provider becomes aware of any actual or anticipated failure in the provision of Services which impacts or is reasonably likely to impact provision of any Service (an "<u>Incident</u>"), it shall notify the Recipient as soon as reasonably practicable but, in any event, within three (3) business days. The Provider shall, as soon as reasonably practicable use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) investigate the underlying cause(s) of the Incident and preserve any data indicating the cause of failure; (ii) take whatever action is reasonably necessary to minimize the impact of the failure and to prevent it from recurring; (iii) correct the failure and resume performance of the Services in accordance with this Agreement; and (iv) advise the Recipient of the status of the Incident and the remedial efforts being undertaken with respect thereto. Without limiting any other term or condition of this Agreement, the Provider shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such Incident and use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of such Incident on the Recipient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Subcontracting</u>. Each Provider may perform the Services through any Affiliate or through non-affiliates contractors, subcontractors, vendors or other third parties without the prior written consent of the Recipient; <u>provided</u> that (i) no subcontracting shall relieve a Provider of any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, (ii) each such third-party provider must comply with any requirements that the Provider generally requires of its own vendors, and (iii) the Provider shall remain responsible for all obligations and liabilities of such third-party with respect to the provision of such Service(s) as if provided by the Provider directly as well as all acts and omissions of such third party in connection with the provision of the applicable Service.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Intellectual Property</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any applicable third-party agreements pursuant to which a Provider or its Affiliates obtain Intellectual Property rights, other proprietary rights, or data, each Provider hereby grants, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, to the Recipient and its Affiliates (collectively, "<u>Recipient Licensees</u>"), a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable, limited license solely during the Term, to use for internal business purposes for the operation of the Madison Air Business or MII Business, as applicable, any such Intellectual Property rights, other proprietary rights, and data that are owned by or that are licensable by such Provider or its Affiliates (as determined by and subject to the terms of the applicable third-party agreements, licenses and Consents) and that are required for and to the extent reasonably necessary to receive or use, the Services (the "<u>Transition Services Licensed Materials</u>"). Recipient Licensees are prohibited from, and shall not cause or permit, the reverse engineering, disassembly or de-compilation of any Transition Services Licensed Materials. Except for the license granted pursuant to this <u>Section 3.1(h)</u>, each Recipient acknowledges that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall acquire any right, title or interest (including any license rights or other rights of access or use except for the limited rights specifically granted herein) in any Intellectual Property rights and any derivative works thereof, or modifications, enhancements or improvements thereto, other proprietary rights, or data of the applicable Provider or its Affiliates or licensors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 <u>Recipient Cooperation</u>. Each Recipient shall make available on a timely basis to the applicable Provider all information and materials reasonably requested by such Provider to enable such Provider to provide the Services hereunder. Each Recipient shall give the applicable Provider reasonable access to such Recipient's premises to the extent necessary for the purpose of providing the Services hereunder (subject to any reasonable and customary conditions with respect to such access, including requiring the Provider's compliance with any applicable security, remote access, safety, privacy and confidentiality 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;3.3 <u>TSA Representatives</u>. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to reasonably cooperate with each other in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of Services, including, for the avoidance of doubt, those Services required to transition or migrate away from the provision of Services at the end of the Term or earlier upon the applicable Recipient's request (provided, that except as otherwise expressly set forth on <u>Schedule A</u>, each Party shall be responsible for all of its own fees, costs and expenses directly or indirectly arising in connection with the transition or migration activities contemplated hereby). Each Party shall appoint a representative (a "<u>TSA Representative</u>") to facilitate communications and performance under this Agreement. Each Party may at any time, and from time to time, replace its TSA Representative by notifying the other Party in writing including email, setting forth the name of the TSA Representative to be replaced and the replacement, and certifying that the replacement TSA Representative is authorized to act on behalf of and for the Party. The TSA Representative's responsibilities shall include resolving disputes under this Agreement and overseeing the performance of the Parties of their obligations under this Agreement. The TSA Representatives shall have regular meetings with each other in person or via teleconference, pursuant to a reasonable schedule mutually agreed to by the TSA Representatives, to discuss the performance of the Parties of their obligations under 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;3.4 <u>Pricing; Invoice and Payment; Taxes</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;(a) In accordance with the payment terms set forth below, each Recipient agrees to timely pay or cause to be paid the applicable Provider the fees set forth on <u>Schedule A</u> the fees for any Omitted Services, Additional Services or Modifications such Recipient has received hereunder (the "<u>Fees</u>").

Additionally, in the event that a Person acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grants pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under this Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under this Plan (and Shares subject to such Awards shall not be added to the Shares available for Awards under this Plan as provided under Section 4.1 above); *provided* that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall be made only to individuals who were not Eligible Employees or Non-Employee Directors prior to such acquisition or combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3 <u>Adjustments</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) The existence of this Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or other change in the Company's capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (iii) any issuance of bonds, debentures, or preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Shares, (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (v) any sale or transfer of all or part of the assets or business of the Company or any Affiliate, or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Excepting transactions covered by Section 4.3(b)(i), if the Company effects any merger, consolidation, statutory exchange, spin-off, reorganization, sale or transfer of all or substantially all the Company's assets or business, or other corporate transaction or event in such a manner that the Company's outstanding Shares are converted into the right to receive (or the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive in exchange therefor), either immediately or upon liquidation of the Company, securities or other property of the Company or other entity, then, subject to the provisions of Section 11.1, (A) the aggregate number or kind of securities that thereafter may be issued under this Plan, (B) the number or kind of securities or other property (including cash) to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under this Plan (including as a result of the assumption of this Plan and the obligations hereunder by a successor entity, as applicable), and (C) the exercise or purchase price thereof may be appropriately adjusted by the Committee to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under this Plan; *provided*, that the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine whether an adjustment is appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 there shall occur any change in the capital structure of the Company other than those covered by Section 4.3(b)(i) or 4.3(b)(ii), any conversion, any adjustment, or any issuance of any class of securities convertible or exercisable into, or exercisable for, any class of equity securities of the Company, then the Committee may adjust any Award and make such other adjustments to this Plan to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under this Plan; *provided*, that the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine whether an adjustment is appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other extraordinary transaction or change affecting the Shares or the Share price, including any securities offering or other similar transaction, for administrative convenience, the Committee may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award for up to 60 days before or after such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Committee may, in its sole discretion, adjust the Performance Goals applicable to any Awards to reflect any unusual or non-recurring events and other extraordinary items, impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations, and the cumulative effects of accounting or tax changes, each as defined by generally accepted accounting principles or as identified in the Company's financial statements, notes to the financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, or other Company public filing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Any such adjustment determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section 4.3(b) shall be final, binding, and conclusive on the Company and all Eligible Individuals and Participants and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and permitted assigns. Any adjustment to, or assumption or substitution of, an Award under this Section 4.3(b) shall be intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.424-1 (and any amendments thereto), to the extent applicable. Except as expressly provided in this Section 4.3 or in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no additional rights under this Plan by reason of any transaction or event described in this Section 4.3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.4 <u>Annual Limit on Non-Employee Director Compensation</u>. In each calendar year during any part of which this Plan is in effect, a Non-Employee Director may not receive Awards for such individual's service on the Board that, taken together with any cash fees paid to such Non-Employee Director during such calendar year for such individual's service on the Board, have a value in excess of $750,000 (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes); *provided*, that (a) the Committee may make exceptions to this limit, except that the Non-Employee Director receiving such additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation or in other contemporaneous decisions involving compensation for Non-Employee Directors and (b) for any calendar year in which a Non-Employee Director (i) first commences service on the Board, (ii) serves on a special committee of the Board, or (iii) serves as lead director or non-executive chair of the Board, such limit shall be increased to $1,000,000; *provided, further*, that the limits set forth in this Section 4.4 shall be applied without regard to Awards or other compensation, if any, provided to a Non-Employee Director during any period in which such individual serves or served as an employee of the Company or any Affiliate or otherwise provides or provided services to the Company or to any Affiliate other than in the capacity as a Non-Employee Director.

# Article V <br> ELIGIBILITY
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1 <u>General Eligibility</u>. All current and prospective Eligible Individuals are eligible to be granted Awards. Eligibility for the grant of Awards and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. No Eligible Individual will automatically be granted any Award under this Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 <u>Incentive Stock Options</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only Eligible Employees who are employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries (if any) are eligible to be granted Incentive Stock Options under this Plan. Eligibility for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 <u>General Requirement</u>. The vesting and exercise of Awards granted to a prospective Eligible Individual are conditioned upon such individual actually being or becoming an Eligible Employee, Consultant, or Non-Employee Director, as applicable.

------

# Article VI <br> STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1 <u>General</u>. Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted alone or in tandem with other Awards granted under this Plan. Each Stock Option granted under this Plan shall be of one of two types: (a) an Incentive Stock Option or (b) a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in this Plan, including any limitations applicable to Incentive Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Grants</u>. The Committee shall have the authority to grant to any Eligible Individual one or more Incentive Stock Options, Non-Qualified Stock Options, and/or Stock Appreciation Rights; *provided*, *however*, that Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to an Eligible Employee who is an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion thereof that does not so qualify shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Exercise Price</u>. The exercise price per Share subject to a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, *provided* that the per-share exercise price of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100% (or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, 110%) of the Fair Market Value at the time of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award, the exercise price per Share for such Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant, *provided* that such exercise price is determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and, if applicable, Section 424(a) of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Term</u>. The term of each Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be fixed by the Committee, *provided* that no Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable more than ten years (or, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, five years) after the date the Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, is granted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 <u>Exercisability</u>. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in accordance with this Section 6.5, Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. The Committee may, but shall not be required to, provide for an acceleration of vesting and exercisability upon the occurrence of a specified event in the terms of any Award Agreement. If the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right within the permitted time periods is prohibited because such exercise would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or any other Applicable Law or the rules of any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, the Company's insider trading policy (including any blackout periods) or a "lock-up" agreement entered into in connection with the issuance of securities by the Company, then the expiration of such Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be extended until the date that is 30 days after the end of the period during which the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right

------

## would be in violation of such registration requirement or other Applicable Law or rules, blackout period or lock-up agreement, as determined by the Committee; *provided, however*, that in no event shall any such extension result in any Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right remaining exercisable after the ten-year term of the applicable Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.6 <u>Method of Exercise</u>. Subject to any applicable waiting period or exercisability provisions under Section 6.5, a Participant may exercise Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, to the extent vested, in whole or in part at any time during the term of the applicable Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, by giving written notice of exercise (which may be electronic) to the Company specifying the number of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, as applicable, being exercised. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price (which shall equal the product of such number of Shares to be purchased multiplied by the applicable exercise price). The exercise price for the Stock Options may be paid upon such terms and conditions as shall be established by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may establish payment terms for the exercise of Stock Options pursuant to which the Company may withhold a number of Shares that would otherwise be issued to the Participant in connection with the exercise of the Stock Option having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price, or that permit the Participant to deliver cash or Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price on the date of payment, or through a simultaneous sale through a broker of Shares acquired on exercise, all as permitted by Applicable Law. No Shares shall be issued until payment therefor, as provided herein, has been made or provided for. Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant shall be entitled to receive, for each right exercised, up to, but no more than, an amount in cash and/or Shares (as chosen by the Committee in its sole discretion) equal in value to the excess of the Fair Market Value of one (1) Share on the date that the right is exercised over the Fair Market Value of one (1) Share on the date that the right was awarded to the Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7 <u>Non-Transferability</u>. No Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall, during the Participant's lifetime, be exercisable only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or thereafter, that a Non-Qualified Stock Option that is otherwise not transferable pursuant to this Section 6.7 is transferable to a Family Member of the Participant in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions, as specified by the Committee. A Non-Qualified Stock Option that is transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence (a) may not be subsequently transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (b) remains subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. Any Shares acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option by a permissible transferee of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or a permissible transferee pursuant to a transfer after the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.8 <u>Termination</u>. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant or, if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement and this Plan, upon a Participant's Termination of Service for any reason, Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may remain exercisable following a Participant's Termination of Service as follows:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Termination by Death or Disability</u>. If a Participant's Termination of Service is by reason of death or Disability, all Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant's Termination of Service may be exercised by the Participant (or in the case of the Participant's death, by the legal representative of the Participant's estate) at any time within a period of one year from the date of such Termination of Service, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights; *provided, however*, that, in the event of a Participant's Termination of Service by reason of Disability, if the Participant dies within such exercise period, all unexercised Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights held by such Participant shall thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which they were exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year from the date of such death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights.

&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>Involuntary Termination Without Cause and Resignation</u>. If a Participant's Termination of Service is by involuntary termination by the Company without Cause or if a Participant's Termination of Service is a resignation, all Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant's Termination of Service may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the date of such Termination of Service, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights.

&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>Termination for Cause</u>. If a Participant's Termination of Service (i) is for Cause or (ii) is without Cause or is a resignation (as provided in Section 6.8(b)) after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a Termination of Service for Cause, all Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, whether vested or not vested, that are held by such Participant shall thereupon immediately terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination of Service.

&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>Unvested Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights.</u> Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that are not vested as of the date of a Participant's Termination of Service for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination of Service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Incentive Stock Option Limitations</u>. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Shares with respect to which Stock Options that are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any calendar year under this Plan and/or any other stock option plan of the Company or any Subsidiary exceeds $100,000, such Stock Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. In addition, if an Eligible Employee does not remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary at all times from the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted until three months prior to the date of exercise thereof (or such other period as required by Applicable Law), such Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Should any provision of this Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions be required, the Committee may amend this Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the Company.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. The Committee may (i) modify, extend, or renew outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan (provided that the rights of a Participant are not reduced without such Participant's consent and provided, further that such action does not cause the Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to violate Section 409A of the Code without the consent of the Participant), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in substitution therefor (to the extent not theretofore exercised).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.9 <u>Automatic Exercise</u>. The Committee may include a provision in an Award Agreement providing for the automatic exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right on a cashless basis on the last day of the term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right if the Participant has failed to exercise the Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right as of such date, with respect to which the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right exceeds the exercise price of such Non-Qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right on the date of expiration of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, subject to Section 14.4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.10 <u>Dividends</u>. No dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be granted with respect to Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.11 <u>Other Terms and Conditions</u>. As the Committee shall deem appropriate, Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may be subject to additional terms and conditions or other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Plan.

# Article VII <br> RESTRICTED STOCK; RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 <u>Awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units</u>. Shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units may be granted alone or in tandem with other Awards granted under this Plan. The Committee shall determine the Eligible Individuals to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units shall be made, the number of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the Participant (subject to Section 7.2), the time or times within which such Awards may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the Awards. The Committee shall determine and set forth in the Award Agreement the terms and conditions for each Award of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, subject to the conditions and limitations contained in this Plan, including any vesting or forfeiture conditions.

The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units upon the attainment of specified Performance Goals or such other factor as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 <u>Awards and Certificates</u>. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement and subject to the following terms and conditions and shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable:

------

&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>Restricted Stock</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) <u>Purchase Price</u>. The purchase price of Restricted Stock shall be fixed by the Committee. The purchase price for shares of Restricted Stock may be zero to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, and, to the extent not so permitted, such purchase price may not be less than par value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Legend</u>. Each Participant receiving Restricted Stock shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock, unless the Committee elects to use another system, such as book entries by the Company's transfer agent, as evidencing ownership of shares of Restricted Stock. Such certificate shall be registered in the name of such Participant, and shall, in addition to such legends required by Applicable Law, bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Custody</u>. If stock certificates are issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee may require that any stock certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that, as a condition of any grant of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a duly signed stock power or other instruments of assignment (including a power of attorney), each endorsed in blank with a guarantee of signature if deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company, which would permit transfer to the Company of all or a portion of the shares subject to the Award of Restricted Stock in the event that such Award is forfeited in whole or part.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>. Except as provided in Section 7.3(a) and this Section 7.2(a) or as otherwise determined by the Committee in an Award Agreement, the Participant shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a holder of Shares, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, the right to vote such shares (to the extent applicable), and, subject to and conditioned upon the full vesting of shares of Restricted Stock, the right to tender such shares; *provided* that the Award Agreement shall specify on what terms and conditions the applicable Participant shall be entitled to dividends payable on the Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Lapse of Restrictions</u>. If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, the certificates for such Shares shall be delivered to the Participant. All legends shall be removed from said certificates at the time of delivery to the Participant, except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or other limitations imposed by the Committee.

&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>Restricted Stock Units</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) <u>Settlement</u>. The Committee may provide that settlement of Restricted Stock Units will occur upon or as soon as reasonably practical after the Restricted Stock Units vest or will instead be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at the Participant's election, in a manner intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>. A Participant will have no rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares subject to any Restricted Stock Unit unless and until Shares are delivered in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) <u>Dividend Equivalent Rights</u>. If the Committee so provides, a grant of Restricted Stock Units may provide that the Participant will be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalent Rights, subject to the terms of Article VIII.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3 <u>Restrictions and Conditions</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) <u>Restriction Period</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 Participant shall not be permitted to transfer shares of Restricted Stock awarded under this Plan or vest in Restricted Stock Units during the period or periods set by the Committee (the "**<u>Restriction Period</u>**") commencing on the date of such Award, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and such agreement shall set forth a vesting schedule and any event that would accelerate vesting of the Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units. Within these limits, based on service, attainment of Performance Goals pursuant to Section 7.3(a)(ii), and/or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, the Committee may condition the grant or provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments in whole or in part, or may accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units and/or waive the deferral limitations for all or any part of any Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 grant of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or the lapse of restrictions or vesting schedule is based on the attainment of Performance Goals, the Committee shall establish the objective Performance Goals and the applicable vesting percentage applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in the applicable Award Agreement prior to the beginning of the applicable fiscal year or at such later date as otherwise determined by the Committee and while the outcome of the Performance Goals is substantially uncertain. Such Performance Goals may incorporate provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions (including, without limitation, dispositions and acquisitions), and other similar types of events or circumstances.

&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>Termination</u>. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or determined by the Committee at grant or, if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, upon a Participant's Termination of Service for any reason during the relevant Restriction Period, all Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units still subject to restriction will be forfeited in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the Committee at grant or thereafter.

# Article VIII

# DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS

## A Dividend Equivalent Right may be granted hereunder to any Eligible Individual as a component of another Award (other than a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right) or as a freestanding award. The terms and conditions of Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be specified in the underlying Award Agreement. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a Dividend

------

## Equivalent Right may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional Shares, which may thereafter accrue additional equivalents. Any such reinvestment shall be at Fair Market Value on the date of reinvestment. Dividend Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash or Stock or a combination thereof, in a single installment or installments, all determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of another Award may provide that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall be settled upon payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, but not exercise of (directly or indirectly), such other Award, and that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall expire or be forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other Award.

# Article IX

# PERFORMANCE AWARDS

## The Committee may grant a Performance Award to an Eligible Individual payable upon the attainment of specific Performance Goals either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under this Plan. The Performance Goals to be achieved during the Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee upon the grant of each Performance Award. The conditions for grant or vesting and the other provisions of Performance Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable Performance Goals) need not be the same with respect to each Participant. Performance Awards may be paid in cash, Shares, other property, or any combination thereof, in the sole discretion of the Committee as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

# Article X <br> OTHER STOCK-BASED AND CASH AWARDS
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 <u>Other Stock-Based Awards</u>. The Committee is authorized to grant to Eligible Individuals Other Stock-Based Awards that are payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to Shares, including but not limited to Shares awarded purely as a bonus and not subject to restrictions or conditions, Shares in payment of the amounts due under an incentive or performance plan sponsored or maintained by the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the EAR Plan), stock equivalent units, and Awards valued by reference to the book value of Shares. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with other Awards granted under this Plan.

Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have authority to determine the Eligible Individuals to whom, and the time or times at which, such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be made, the number of Shares to be awarded pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of the Awards. The Committee may also provide for the grant of Shares under such Awards upon the completion of a specified Performance Period. The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of Other Stock-Based Awards upon the attainment of specified Performance Goals as the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 <u>Terms and Conditions</u>. Other Stock-Based Awards made pursuant to this Article X shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement and subject to the following terms and conditions and shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable:

------

&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>Non-Transferability</u>. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and this Plan, Shares subject to Other Stock-Based Awards may not be transferred prior to the date on which the Shares are issued or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance, or deferral period lapses.

&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>Dividends</u>. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of an Other Stock-Based Award, subject to the provisions of the Award Agreement and this Plan, the recipient of an Other Stock-Based Award shall not be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred basis, dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights in respect of the number of Shares covered by the Other Stock-Based Award.

&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>Vesting</u>. Any Other Stock-Based Award and any Shares covered by any such Other Stock-Based Award shall vest or be forfeited to the extent so provided in the Award Agreement, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

&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>Price</u>. Shares under this Article X may be issued for no cash consideration, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. Shares purchased pursuant to a purchase right awarded pursuant to an Other Stock-Based Award shall be priced as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3 <u>Cash Awards</u>. The Committee may from time to time grant Cash Awards to Eligible Individuals in such amounts, on such terms and conditions, and for such consideration, including no consideration or such minimum consideration as may be required by Applicable Law, as it shall determine in its sole discretion. Cash Awards may be granted subject to the satisfaction of vesting conditions or may be awarded purely as a bonus and not subject to restrictions or conditions, and if subject to vesting conditions, the Committee may accelerate the vesting of such Awards at any time in its sole discretion. The grant of a Cash Award shall not require a segregation of any of the Company's assets for satisfaction of the Company's payment obligation thereunder.

# Article XI <br>CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1 <u>Benefits</u>. In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, and except as otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement or any applicable employment agreement, offer letter, consulting agreement, change in control agreement, or similar agreement in effect between the Company or an Affiliate and the Participant, a Participant's Awards shall be treated in accordance with one or more of the following methods as determined by the Committee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that Awards, whether or not then vested, shall be continued, be assumed, or have new rights substituted therefor, in each case in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and that restrictions to which Shares of Restricted Stock or any other Award granted prior to the Change in Control are subject shall not lapse upon a Change in Control and the Restricted Stock or other Award shall, where appropriate in the sole discretion of the Committee, receive the same distribution as other Shares on such terms as determined by the Committee; *provided* that the Committee may decide to award additional Restricted Stock or other Awards in lieu of any cash distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of Incentive Stock

------

Options, any assumed or substituted Stock Option shall comply with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1 (and any amendment thereto).

&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) The Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide for the purchase of any Awards by the Company for an amount of cash and/or property having a value equal to the excess (if any) of the Change in Control Price of the Shares covered by such Awards, over the aggregate exercise price of such Awards; *provided, however*, that if the exercise price of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right equals or exceeds the Change in Control Price, such Award may be canceled for no consideration; and *provided*, *further*, that payment may be in the same form of consideration as is paid to holders of Common Stock (instead of solely in cash).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate all outstanding and unexercised Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or Other Stock-Based Award that provides for a Participant-elected exercise, effective as of the date of the Change in Control, by delivering notice of termination to each Participant at least ten days prior to the date of consummation of the Change in Control or such later date as the Committee determines to be reasonable, in which case during the period from the date on which such notice of termination is delivered to the consummation of the Change in Control, each such Participant shall have the right to exercise in full all of such Participant's Awards that are then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercisability otherwise contained in the Award Agreements), but any such exercise shall be contingent on the occurrence of the Change in Control, and, *provided* that, if the Change in Control does not take place within a specified period after giving such notice for any reason whatsoever, the notice and exercise (and the accelerated right to exercise) pursuant thereto shall be null and void.

&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 any other provision herein to the contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting or lapse of restrictions, of all or any portion of a Participant's Award at any time. For the avoidance of doubt, if the exercise price of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right equals or exceeds the Change in Control Price, such Award may be canceled for no consideration.

# Article XII <br>TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF PLAN

## Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Board or the Committee may at any time, and from time to time, amend, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of this Plan (including any amendment deemed necessary to ensure that the Company may comply with any Applicable Law), or suspend or terminate it entirely, retroactively or otherwise; *provided, however*, that, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law or specifically provided herein, the rights of a Participant with respect to Awards granted prior to such amendment, suspension, or termination may not be materially adversely impaired without the consent of such Participant and, *provided*, *further*, that without the approval of the holders of the Shares entitled to vote in accordance with Applicable Law, no amendment may be made that would (a) increase the aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under this Plan (except by operation of Section 4.1 or Section 4.3); or (b) materially expand the classes of individuals eligible to receive Awards under this Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Board or the Committee may amend this Plan or any Award Agreement at any time without a Participant's consent to comply with Applicable Law, including Section 409A of the Code. In addition, the Board or the Committee

------

## shall, without the approval of the holders of the Shares entitled to vote in accordance with Applicable Law and without the consent of the Participants, have the authority to (i) amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right to reduce its exercise price per Share or (ii) cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation Right in exchange for cash or another Award. The Committee may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Article IV or as otherwise specifically provided herein, no such amendment or other action by the Committee shall materially impair the rights of any Participant without the Participant's consent.

# Article XIII <br> UNFUNDED STATUS OF PLAN

## This Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payment as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but that is not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any right that is greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

# Article XIV <br>GENERAL PROVISIONS
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1 <u>Legend</u>. The Committee may require each person receiving Shares pursuant to a Stock Option or other Award under this Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Participant is acquiring the Shares without a view to distribution thereof. In addition to any legend required by this Plan, the certificates for such Shares may include any legend that the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer. All certificates for Shares delivered under this Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed or any national securities exchange system upon whose system the Common Stock is then quoted, and any Applicable Law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. If the Shares are held in book-entry form, then the book-entry will indicate any restrictions on such Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2 <u>Other Plans</u>. Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Committee from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to stockholder approval if such approval is required, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3 <u>No Right to Employment/Directorship/Consultancy</u>. Neither this Plan nor the grant of any Award hereunder shall give any Participant or other employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director any right with respect to continuance of employment, consultancy or directorship by the Company or any Affiliate, nor shall there be a limitation in any way on the right of the Company or any Affiliate by which an employee is employed or a Consultant or Non-Employee Director is retained to terminate such employment, consultancy, or directorship at any time.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4 <u>Withholding of Taxes</u>. A Participant shall be required to pay to the Company or one of its Affiliates, as applicable, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any income tax, social insurance contribution or other applicable taxes that are required to be withheld in respect of an Award. The Committee may (but is not obligated to), in its sole discretion, permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or any portion of the applicable taxes that are required to be withheld with respect to an Award by (a) the delivery of Shares that (i) are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and (ii) have been both held by the Participant and vested for at least six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting treatment under applicable accounting standards) and (iii) have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability (or portion thereof); (b) having the Company withhold from the Shares otherwise issuable or deliverable to, or that would otherwise be retained by, the Participant upon the grant, exercise, vesting, or settlement of the Award, as applicable, a number of Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such withholding liability; or (c) by any other means specified in the applicable Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.5 <u>No Assignment of Benefits</u>. No Award or other benefit payable under this Plan shall, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan or under Applicable Law or permitted by the Committee, be transferable in any manner, and any attempt to transfer any such benefit shall be void, and any such benefit shall not in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of any person who shall be entitled to such benefit, nor shall it be subject to attachment or legal process for or against such person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.6 <u>Clawbacks; Bad Conduct</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) <u>Clawbacks</u>. All awards, amounts, or benefits received or outstanding under this Plan will be subject to clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, reduction, or other similar action in accordance with any Company clawback or similar policy or any Applicable Law related to such actions. A Participant's acceptance of an Award will constitute the Participant's acknowledgement of and consent to the Company's application, implementation, and enforcement of any applicable Company clawback or similar policy that may apply to the Participant, whether adopted before or after the Effective Date, and any Applicable Law relating to clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, or reduction of compensation, and the Participant's agreement that the Company may take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate any such policy or Applicable Law, without further consideration or action.

&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>Bad Conduct</u>. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Plan, if a Participant (i) breaches any of such Participant's obligations under any restrictive covenants to which such Participant is bound with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or (ii) experiences Termination of Service for Cause, in each case as determined by the Committee, in addition to any other penalties or restrictions that may apply under this Plan, Applicable Law or otherwise, the Committee shall have the authority to reduce, terminate, recapture or cause the forfeiture of any Award, any cash or Shares issued in connection with any Award and any securities directly or indirectly issued by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates in exchange for such Shares. In such instance, the applicable Participant (or such Participant's successor or transferee, as applicable) shall execute and deliver to the Company all documents requested by the Committee in connection therewith within ten days. If any Person fails for any

------

reason to comply with the immediately preceding sentence, (A) the Committee may, at its sole option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, terminate or transfer all of the applicable Person's rights in and to the applicable Awards or Shares, as the case may be, in which event (and assuming the issuance of Shares in exchange for an Award), the applicable Person shall not be a stockholder of the Company (or hold securities in any Subsidiary) and shall have no further right, title or interest in or to any Shares or any securities of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate issued in consideration therefor, and (B) such Person shall indemnify or reimburse the Company for any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys) which the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate may suffer, sustain or incur directly or indirectly arising out of, relating to or otherwise by virtue of enforcing its rights hereunder or bringing any claims with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.7 <u>Listing and Other Conditions</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) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, as long as the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or system sponsored by a national securities association, the issuance of Shares pursuant to an Award shall be conditioned upon such Shares being listed on such exchange or system. The Company shall have no obligation to issue such Shares unless and until such Shares are so listed, and the right to exercise any Stock Option or other Award, if applicable, with respect to such Shares shall be suspended until such listing has been effected.

&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 at any time counsel to the Company advises the Company that any sale or delivery of Shares pursuant to an Award is or may in the circumstances be unlawful or result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company under Applicable Law, the Company shall have no obligation to make such sale or delivery, or to make any application or to effect or to maintain any qualification or registration under the Securities Act or otherwise, with respect to Shares or Awards, and the right to exercise any Stock Option or other Award, if applicable, shall be suspended until, based on the advice of said counsel, such sale or delivery shall be lawful or will not result in the imposition of excise taxes on 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;(c) Upon termination of any period of suspension under this Section 14.7, any Award affected by such suspension that has l not then expired or terminated shall be reinstated as to all Shares available before such suspension and as to Shares that would otherwise have become available during the period of such suspension, but no such suspension shall extend the term of any Award.

&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) A Participant shall be required to supply the Company with certificates, representations, and information that the Company requests and otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining any listing, registration, qualification, exemption, consent, or approval that the Company deems necessary or appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.8 <u>Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. This Plan, all Award Agreements (including any exhibits attached thereto) and all Awards and actions taken in connection herewith or therewith shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. Any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, an Award Agreement or an Award, or any judgment entered

------

## by any court in respect of any thereof, shall be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (unless the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction, in which case each party consents to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware), and each of the Company and, by accepting an Award hereunder, each Participant hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment. Each of the Company and, by accepting an Award hereunder, each Participant hereby irrevocably waives (a) any objections that the Company or such Participant may now, at the time of grant, or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Plan, an Award Agreement or an Award brought in any of the foregoing courts, (b) any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in any inconvenient forum, and (c) any right to a jury trial.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.9 <u>Construction</u>. Wherever any words are used in this Plan in the masculine gender they shall be construed as though they were also used in the feminine gender in all cases where they would so apply, and wherever words are used herein in the singular form they shall be construed as though they were also used in the plural form in all cases where they would so apply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.10 <u>Other Benefits</u>. No Award granted or paid out under this Plan shall be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or its Affiliates or affect any benefit or compensation under any other plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.11 <u>Costs</u>. The Company shall bear all expenses associated with administering this Plan, including expenses of issuing Shares pursuant to Awards hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.12 <u>No Right to Same Benefits</u>. The provisions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant, and such Awards to individual Participants need not be the same in subsequent years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.13 <u>Death/Disability</u>. The Committee may in its discretion require the transferee of a Participant to supply it with written notice of the Participant's death or Disability and to supply it with a copy of the will (in the case of the Participant's death) or such other evidence as the Committee deems necessary to establish the validity of the transfer of an Award. The Committee may also require the agreement of the transferee to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.14 <u>Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act</u>. It is the intent of the Company that this Plan satisfy, and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies, the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3 as promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act so that Participants will be entitled to the benefit of Rule 16b-3, or any other rule promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and will not be subject to short-swing liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, if the operation of any provision of this Plan would conflict with the intent expressed in this Section 14.14, such provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted and/or deemed amended so as to avoid such conflict.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.15 <u>Deferral of Awards</u>. The Committee may establish one or more programs under this Plan to permit selected Participants the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event that absent the election would entitle the Participant to payment or receipt of Shares or other consideration under an Award. The Committee may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest or other earnings, if any, on amounts, Shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules, and procedures that the Committee deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.16 <u>Section 409A of the Code</u>. This Plan and Awards are intended to comply with or be exempt from the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed, and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that any Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any provision in this Plan that is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code shall be deemed amended to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and, to the extent such provision cannot be amended to comply therewith or be exempt therefrom, such provision shall be null and void. The Company shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other party, if an Award that is intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Committee or the Company and, in the event that any amount or benefit under this Plan becomes subject to penalties under Section 409A of the Code, responsibility for payment of such penalties shall rest solely with the affected Participants and not with the Company. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Plan or Award Agreement, any payment(s) of "nonqualified deferred compensation" (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) that are otherwise required to be made under this Plan to a "specified employee" (as defined under Section 409A of the Code) as a result of such employee's separation from service (other than a payment that is not subject to Section 409A of the Code) shall be delayed for the first six months following such separation from service (or, if earlier, until the date of death of the specified employee) and shall instead be paid (in a manner set forth in the Award Agreement) upon expiration of such delay period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.17 <u>Data Privacy</u>. As a condition of receipt of any Award, each Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this Section 14.17 by and among, as applicable, the Company and its Affiliates, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing this Plan and Awards and the Participant's participation in this Plan. In furtherance of such implementation, administration, and management, the Company and its Affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant's name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), information regarding any securities of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and details of all Awards (the "<u>Data</u>"). In addition to transferring the Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration, and management of this Plan and Awards and the Participant's participation in this Plan, the Company and its Affiliates may each transfer the Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of this Plan and Awards and the Participant's participation in this Plan. Recipients of the Data may be located in the Participant's country or elsewhere, and the Participant's country and any given recipient's country may have different data

------

## privacy laws and protections. By accepting an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of this Plan and Awards and the Participant's participation in this Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any Shares. The Data related to a Participant will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage this Plan and Awards and the Participant's participation in this Plan. A Participant may, at any time, view the Data held by the Company with respect to such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data with respect to such Participant, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data with respect to the Participant, or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in writing, in any case without cost, by contacting his or her local human resources representative. The Company may cancel the Participant's eligibility to participate in this Plan, and in the Committee's discretion, the Participant may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws the consents described herein. For more information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participants may contact their local human resources representative.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.18 <u>Successor and Assigns</u>. This Plan shall be binding on all successors and permitted assigns of a Participant, including, without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator, or trustee of such estate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.19 <u>Severability of Provisions</u>. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

Furthermore, the modification or termination of one Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units shall

------

## not obligate the Committee to amend, modify or terminate any other Person's or Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units and shall have no effect on any other Person's or Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 <u>Unfunded Status of Plan</u>. It is intended that the Plan be an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.4 <u>No Additional Obligation</u>. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent any Madison Air Company from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements for its employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.5 <u>Taxes</u>. Participants will be solely responsible for all applicable taxes (including, without limitation, income, excise and the employee and employer portions of any payroll taxes) and penalties, and any interest that accrues thereon, incurred in connection with the receipt, vesting or settlement of any EAR Unit and the receipt, ownership and disposition of any Units. As a condition to the delivery of any Units, or any cash or other securities or property pursuant to the settlement of any EAR Unit, or in connection with any other event that gives rise to a federal or other governmental tax withholding obligation on the part of the Company or any other taxable event relating to an EAR Unit:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Company may deduct or withhold (or cause to be deducted or withheld) the applicable amount from any payment or distribution to a Participant whether or not pursuant to the Plan (including in the form of Units (or Shares) otherwise deliverable),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Committee may require that the Participant remit the applicable amount in cash to the Company (through payroll deduction or otherwise), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Company may enter into any other arrangements it determines to be suitable to withhold, in each case in the Company's discretion, the amounts of such taxes to be withheld based on the individual tax rates applicable to the Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.6 <u>Controlling Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. The Plan and all EAR Units and Units (or Shares) issued in settlement thereof, and all actions taken under the Plan, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, except for its law respecting choice of law. The Plan shall be construed to comply with all applicable laws and to avoid liability to all Group Companies and all Participants, where possible. Any litigation arising out of or related to the Plan, any EAR Units, any Units (or Shares) issued in settlement thereof, or any actions taken under the Plan, shall be filed only in the state or federal courts in the State of Delaware. All Participants consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts, waive any objection based on the convenience of such venues, and agree to not seek to change venue. NO PARTICIPANT SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF RELATED TO THE PLAN OR ANY EAR UNIT (OR ANY AWARD WHICH WAS CONVERTED INTO AN EAR UNIT) GRANTED OR ANY ACTIONS TAKEN UNDER THE PLAN OR THE TRANSACTIONS OR EVENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, VERBAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS, OR ACTIONS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, REGARDLESS OF WHO INITIATED SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING. ANY AND ALL SUCH

------

## CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY THE COURT WITHOUT A JURY. NO SUCH ACTION OR LEGAL PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.7 <u>Offset</u>. Any amounts owed of any nature to any Group Company by any Participant may be offset by the Company from the value of any cash, securities or other property payable under the Plan or relevant Agreement to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and applicable law. No cash, securities or other property payable under the Plan or relevant Agreement shall be transferred unless and until all disputes between any Group Company and such Participant have been fully and finally resolved, and the Participant has waived all such claims against all Group Companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.8 <u>No Effect on Benefits</u>. Payments under the Plan shall constitute special discretionary incentive payments to the Participants and shall not be required to be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Participants for the purpose of determining any contributions to or any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit-sharing, incentive, life insurance, overtime, severance or other benefit plan of the Company or under any agreement with a Participant, unless the Company or such other arrangement specifically provides otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.9 <u>Mitigation of Excise Tax</u>. In the event that any payments or benefits provided for in the Plan or otherwise payable to a Participant, whether in cash or Units (or Shares) (collectively, the "<u>Payments</u>") (a) constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (b) but for this Section 8.9, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Payments will be either (i) delivered in full or (ii) delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (and any equivalent state or local excise taxes), results in the receipt by the Participant on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Payments may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. The determination of whether any reduction in the rights or payments under the Plan is to apply shall be made by the Committee after consultation with the Participant, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Participant. The Participant shall cooperate in good faith with the Committee in making such determination and providing the necessary information for this purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.10 <u>No Rights with Respect to Continuance of Employment</u>. Nothing contained herein or in any Grant Agreement shall be deemed to alter the relationship between any Madison Air Company and a Participant, or the contractual relationship between Madison Air Company and a Participant, if there is a written contract regarding such relationship. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute a contract of employment between any Madison Air Company and a Participant. The respective Madison Air Companies and each Participant continue to have the right to terminate the employment or service relationship at any time for any reason, except as may be provided in a separate, written contract. No Madison Air Company shall have any obligation to retain the Participant in its employ or service as a result of the Plan or any Grant Agreement. There shall be no inference as to the length of employment or service hereby, and each Madison Air

------

## Company reserves the same rights to terminate the Participant's employment or service as existed prior to the individual becoming a Participant.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.11 <u>Headings</u>. The headings contained in the Plan are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.12 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of the Plan shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision, and the Plan shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.13 <u>409A</u>. The Company intends that payments under the Plan shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code as short-term deferrals and shall not constitute "deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan shall be interpreted, construed and administered in accordance with the foregoing intent, so as to avoid the imposition of taxes and penalties on Participants pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. No Group Company shall have any liability to any Participant or otherwise if the Plan or amounts paid or payable hereunder are subject to the additional tax and penalties under Section 409A of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.14 <u>Successors and Assigns</u>. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each successor and assign of the Company. All obligations imposed upon a Participant, and all rights granted to the Company hereunder, shall be binding upon the Participant's heirs, legal representatives and successors. Each Group Company other than the Company is an express third party beneficiary of the obligations of all Participants under the Plan or any Grant Agreement, entitled to enforce such obligations directly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.15 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. The Plan, the Agreements and any documents to be executed upon the issuance of Units (or Shares) in connection with EAR Units constitute the entire agreement between the Group Companies and the Participants with respect to any equity, phantom equity or other equity appreciation rights granted or to be granted to any Participant by any Group Company in consideration for services performed or to be performed by such Participant ("<u>Equity Rights</u>") and supersede all prior oral or written agreements, understandings or promises involving or made by any Group Company or any of their respective officers, directors, managers, partners or employees to any Participant with regard to Equity Rights, including the Prior Plan. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and a Grant Agreement or any other written document related to an Award under the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall control. No grant of Equity Rights or purported grant of Equity Rights shall be enforceable against any Group Company unless such grant or purported grant is approved by the Committee and evidenced by a Grant Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.16 <u>No Rights as an Equityholder</u>. Prior to delivery of Units (or Shares), nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give a Participant any rights or incur any obligations as an equity holder of any Group Company, or otherwise with respect to any Units (or Shares) or other equity interests of any Group Company, including, without limitation, in the event any distributions are made by the Company with respect to Units (or Shares) or made by any other Group Company with respect to its equity interests, any rights to any cash or other payments from the Company or such Group Company at any time, including in connection with or after the issuance of Units (or Shares).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.17 <u>No Liability</u>. None of the Committee, any Group Company, any affiliate of any Group Company or their respective members, officers, directors, managers, shareholders, employees, advisory board members, agents or attorneys shall have any liability or obligation whatsoever, in damages or otherwise, to any Participant or any other Person (i) for any act or omission in connection with any EAR Unit, any Units (or Shares) issued in settlement thereof or any Grant Agreement or (ii) as a result of any amendment, modification, alteration or termination of the Plan or a Grant Agreement, or (iii) to compensate any Participant or any other party with respect to or as a result of any amendment, modification, alteration or termination of the Plan or a Grant Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.18 <u>Indemnification</u>. The officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders, agents, affiliates, employees, and advisory board members of the Madison Air Companies and the officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders, agents, employees, and advisory board members of the affiliates of the Madison Air Companies, as well as the Committee and each of its members, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Madison Air Companies against and from any and all loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by them in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which they may be a party or in which they may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by them in settlement (with the Company's written approval) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding. Nothing set forth in this <u>Section 8.18</u> shall grant to any rights to any Participant or any successor to or transferee of any Participant, in each case in their capacity as such.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.19 <u>Outstanding Awards</u>. The Plan, as hereby amended and restated, shall govern all rights and obligations of all Awards outstanding on the date hereof, and of the Participants holding such Awards with respect thereto, notwithstanding any change in such rights and obligations from those in effect prior to the amendment and restatement of the Plan.

## IN WITNESS WHEREOF, as of the Effective Date, the Company hereby amends and restates the Plan in its entirety as set forth herein, and approves and adopts this Second Amended and Restated Equity Appreciation Plan of the Company.

The number of EAR Units (a) outstanding under the Plan at any time and (b) with respect to which Shares have been issued in settlement of vested EAR Units under the Plan shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the number of Shares available to be issued under the Omnibus Plan (the "<u>Cap</u>"). Shares delivered, withheld or surrendered to satisfy any tax obligations of any Participant with respect to the EAR Units shall be treated as having been issued and shall count against the Cap. If any EAR Units or Shares issued in settlement of any EAR Units are canceled, forfeited or terminated for any reason, such EAR Units (or the EAR Units with respect to which such Shares were issued) shall again be available under the Plan.

# Article V <u><br></u> <br> <u>ELIGIBILITY</u> 
Any employee of one or more Madison Air Companies shall be eligible to participate in the Plan and receive EAR Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Grant</u>. Any EAR Units granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Grant Agreement executed by the Company (at the direction of the Committee) and the Participant. Such Agreement shall embody the terms and conditions related to such grant. A person shall only be a Participant and shall only receive a grant of EAR Units if (and only to the extent that) a Grant Agreement has been entered into between such person and the Company (at the direction of the Committee). Notwithstanding any agreement to which any Madison Air Company is a party to the contrary or any promise made by an officer or director of any Madison Air Company to the contrary, all grants of EAR Units are and shall be at all times subject to the express terms and conditions set forth in the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Vesting; Related Approved Distribution Value</u>. An EAR Unit will vest on the earlier of (a) that date which is 5 years from the Grant Date of such EAR Unit or such other date or dates as set forth in the Grant Agreement, subject to the applicable Participant's continued employment through such date (a "<u>Time Vesting Date</u>") and (b) the date of the consummation of a Sale, subject to the applicable Participant's continued employment through such date (a "<u>Sale Vesting Date</u>"

------

## and, together with a Time Vesting Date, a " <u>Vesting Date</u> ")). If a Participant experiences a Termination of Employment for any reason, any EAR Units held by the Participant for which a Vesting Date has not yet occurred will be automatically forfeited without consideration.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Settlement of Vested EAR Units</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Vested EAR Units will be settled in full within 60 days of the applicable Vesting Date (such period, the "<u>Settlement Period</u>") by the issuance of that number of Shares equal to the number of such vested EAR Units, subject to the provisions of <u>Section 8.5</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 <u>General</u>. The grant of EAR Units represents a substantial economic benefit to the respective Participant.

Each Participant agrees that during the Restricted Period, such Participant shall not directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with others, recruit, solicit or induce, or attempt to recruit, solicit or induce, a person who is or was an employee of any Group Company at any time during the Restricted Period to terminate such person's employment with, or otherwise cease or alter such person's relationship with, any of the Group Companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.6 <u>Enforcement</u>. Each Participant agrees that the restrictions contained in this Article VII are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Group Companies and are considered by such Participant to be reasonable for that purpose, and that the scope of restricted activities, the geographic scope of such restrictions, and the duration of the restrictions set forth in this Article VII are considered by such Participant to be reasonable. Each Participant agrees that the restrictions contained in this Article VII will not interfere with such Participant's ability to earn a living. Each Participant further agrees that any breach of any provision of this Article VII will cause the Group Companies substantial and irrevocable harm for which money damages will be inadequate, and therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Group

Each Participant further agrees that to the extent any provision or portion of this Article VII shall be held, found or deemed to be unreasonable, unlawful or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then any such provision or portion thereof shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary in order that any such provision or portion thereof shall be legally enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Each Participant agrees that the Company shall have no obligation to deliver Shares to such Participant with respect to any vested EAR Units at any time while, or after, such Participant is in breach of any provision of Article VII.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1 <u>Amendments and Termination of Plan</u>. Notwithstanding anything set forth in the Plan to the contrary and unless otherwise provided in a Grant Agreement, the Committee may, at any time amend, modify or alter the Plan in any manner it chooses, including but not limited to, Equitable Adjustments, <u>provided</u> <u>that</u> no such amendment, modification or alteration may be made if or to the extent that it would cause an outstanding EAR Unit to cease to be exempt from, or to fail to comply with, Section 409A of the Code, and <u>provided</u> <u>that</u>, other than Equitable Adjustments, any such amendment, modification or alteration may not materially adversely impair the rights of a Participant with respect to any outstanding EAR Units without the Participant's consent.

Furthermore, the modification or termination of one Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units shall not obligate the Committee to amend, modify or terminate any other Person's or Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units and shall have no effect on any other Person's or Participant's Grant Agreement or underlying EAR Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 <u>Unfunded Status of Plan</u>. It is intended that the Plan be an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation.

------

## and penalties, and any interest that accrues thereon, incurred in connection with the receipt, vesting or settlement of any EAR Unit and the receipt, ownership and disposition of any Shares. As a condition to the delivery of any Shares, or any cash or other securities or property pursuant to the settlement of any EAR Unit, or in connection with any other event that gives rise to a federal or other governmental tax withholding obligation on the part of the Company or any other taxable event relating to an EAR Unit:
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Company may deduct or withhold (or cause to be deducted or withheld) the applicable amount from any payment or distribution to a Participant whether or not pursuant to the Plan (including in the form of Shares otherwise deliverable),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.6 <u>Controlling Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. The Plan and all EAR Units and Shares issued in settlement thereof, and all actions taken under the Plan, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, except for its law respecting choice of law. The Plan shall be construed to comply with all applicable laws and to avoid liability to all Group Companies and all Participants, where possible. Any litigation arising out of or related to the Plan, any EAR Units, any Shares issued in settlement thereof, or any actions taken under the Plan, shall be filed only in the state or federal courts in the State of Delaware. All Participants consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts, waive any objection based on the convenience of such venues, and agree to not seek to change venue. NO PARTICIPANT SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF RELATED TO THE PLAN OR ANY EAR UNIT (OR ANY AWARD WHICH WAS CONVERTED INTO AN EAR UNIT) GRANTED OR ANY ACTIONS TAKEN UNDER THE PLAN OR THE TRANSACTIONS OR EVENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, VERBAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS, OR ACTIONS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, REGARDLESS OF WHO INITIATED SUCH LEGAL PROCEEDING. ANY AND ALL SUCH CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY THE COURT WITHOUT A JURY.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.8 <u>No Effect on Benefits</u>. Payments under the Plan shall constitute special discretionary incentive payments to the Participants and shall not be required to be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Participants for the purpose of determining any contributions to or any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit-sharing, incentive, life insurance, overtime, severance or other benefit plan of the Company or under any agreement with a Participant, unless the Company or such other arrangement specifically provides otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.9 <u>Mitigation of Excise Tax</u>. In the event that any payments or benefits provided for in the Plan or otherwise payable to a Participant, whether in cash or Shares (collectively, the "<u>Payments</u>") (a) constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (b) but for this Section 8.9, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Payments will be either (i) delivered in full or (ii) delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (and any equivalent state or local excise taxes), results in the receipt by the Participant on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Payments may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. The determination of whether any reduction in the rights or payments under the Plan is to apply shall be made by the Committee after consultation with the Participant, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Participant. The Participant shall cooperate in good faith with the Committee in making such determination and providing the necessary information for this purpose.

Nothing contained herein or in any Grant Agreement shall be deemed to alter the relationship between any Madison Air Company and a Participant, or the contractual relationship between Madison Air Company and a Participant, if there is a written contract regarding such relationship. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute a contract of employment between any Madison Air Company and a Participant. The respective Madison Air Companies and each Participant continue to have the right to terminate the employment or service relationship at any time for any reason, except as may be provided in a separate, written contract. No Madison Air Company shall have any obligation to retain the Participant in its employ or service as a result of the Plan or any Grant Agreement. There shall be no inference as to the length of employment or service hereby, and each Madison Air Company reserves the same rights to terminate the Participant's employment or service as existed prior to the individual becoming a Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.11 <u>Headings</u>. The headings contained in the Plan are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the Plan.

If any provision of the Plan shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision, and the Plan shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.13 <u>409A</u>. The Company intends that payments under the Plan shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code as short-term deferrals and shall not constitute "deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan shall be interpreted, construed and administered in accordance with the foregoing intent, so as to avoid the imposition of taxes and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.15 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. The Plan, the Agreements and any documents to be executed upon the issuance of Shares in connection with EAR Units constitute the entire agreement between the Group Companies and the Participants with respect to any equity, phantom equity or other equity appreciation rights granted or to be granted to any Participant by any Group Company in consideration for services performed or to be performed by such Participant ("<u>Equity Rights</u>") and supersede all prior oral or written agreements, understandings or promises involving or made by any Group Company or any of their respective officers, directors, managers, partners or employees to any Participant with regard to Equity Rights, including the Prior Plan. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and a Grant Agreement or any other written document related to an Award under the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall control. No grant of Equity Rights or purported grant of Equity Rights shall be enforceable against any Group Company unless such grant or purported grant is approved by the Committee and evidenced by a Grant Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.16 <u>No Rights as an Equityholder</u>. Prior to delivery of Shares, nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give a Participant any rights or incur any obligations as an equity holder of any Group Company, or otherwise with respect to any Shares or other equity interests of any Group Company, including, without limitation, in the event any distributions are made by the Company with respect to Shares or made by any other Group Company with respect to its equity interests, any rights to any cash or other payments from the Company or such Group Company at any time, including in connection with or after the issuance of Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.17 <u>No Liability</u>. None of the Committee, any Group Company, any affiliate of any Group Company or their respective members, officers, directors, managers, shareholders, employees, advisory board members, agents or attorneys shall have any liability or obligation whatsoever, in damages or otherwise, to any Participant or any other Person (i) for any act or omission in connection with any EAR Unit, any Shares issued in settlement thereof or any Grant Agreement or (ii) as a result of any amendment, modification, alteration or termination of the Plan or a Grant Agreement, or (iii) to compensate any Participant or any other party with respect to or as a result of any amendment, modification, alteration or termination of the Plan or a Grant Agreement.
