 ARTICLE V 

TAX MATTERS 
  

	Section 5.1	Liability for Taxes. 

  

	 	(a)	Operations shall be liable for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company from any unpaid Taxes imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Company Group or the Company Assets with respect to any
taxable period or portion thereof ending on or prior to the Closing Date to the extent such unpaid Taxes exceed any reserves therefor. 

  

	 	(b)	The Company Group shall be liable for any Taxes imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Company Group or the Company Assets with respect to any taxable period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing
Date. 

  

	 	(c)	Whenever it is necessary for purposes of this Article V to determine the amount of any Taxes imposed on or incurred by or with respect to the Company Group or the Company Assets for a taxable period beginning
before and ending after the Closing Date which is allocable to the period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, the determination shall be made, in the case of property or ad valorem taxes or franchise taxes (which are measured by, or based
solely upon capital, debt or a combination of capital and debt), by pro rating such Taxes ratably on a per diem basis and, in the case of other Taxes, by assuming that such taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date constitutes a
separate taxable period applicable to the Company Group and by taking into account the actual taxable events occurring during such period (except that exemptions, allowances and deductions for a taxable period beginning before and ending after the
Closing Date that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned to the period prior to and including the Closing Date ratably on a per diem basis). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, any franchise tax paid or payable with respect to the Company Group or the Company Assets shall be allocated to the taxable period during which the income, operations, assets or capital comprising the base of such tax is measured,
regardless of whether the right to do business for another taxable period is obtained by the payment of such franchise tax. 

  

	 	(d)	If the Company Group receives a refund of any Taxes that Operations is responsible for hereunder, or if Operations or its Affiliates receive a refund of any Taxes that the Company Group is responsible for hereunder, the
party receiving such refund shall, within ninety (90) days after receipt of such refund, remit it to the party who has responsibility for such Taxes hereunder. The parties shall cooperate in order to take all necessary and reasonable steps to
claim any such refund. 

  
 25 

	Section 5.2	Tax Returns. 

  

	 	(a)	With respect to any Tax Return attributable to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date that is required to be filed either before or after the Closing Date with respect to the Company Group or the Company
Assets, Operations shall cause such Tax Return to be prepared, cause to be included in such Tax Return all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit required to be included therein, cause such Tax Return to be filed timely with the
appropriate Taxing Authority, and be responsible for the timely payment (and entitled to any refund) of all Taxes due with respect to the period covered by such Tax Return. 

 

	 	(b)	With respect to any Tax Return attributable to a taxable period beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date that is required to be filed after the Closing Date with respect to the Company
Group or the Company Assets, the Company Group shall cause such Tax Return to be prepared, cause to be included in such Tax Return all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit required to be included therein, furnish a copy of such Tax
Return to Operations, cause such Tax Return to be filed timely with the appropriate Taxing Authority, and the Company Group shall be responsible for the timely payment of all Taxes due with respect to the period covered by such Tax Return (but shall
have a right to recover from Operations the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to Section 5.1(a)). 

 

	 	(c)	With regard to any Tax Return not yet filed for any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date with respect to the Company Group or the Company Assets, the parties shall cause each such Tax Return to be prepared
in accordance with past Tax accounting practices used with respect to the Tax Returns in question (unless such past practices are no longer permissible under the Applicable Law), and to the extent any items are not covered by past practices, in
accordance with reasonable tax accounting practices selected by the filing party with respect to such Tax Return under this Agreement with the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the non-filing party. 

 

	Section 5.3	Transfer Taxes. 

 All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and
other similar Taxes and fees arising out of or in connection with the transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement (the “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne by the Company Group. The Company Group shall file all necessary Tax
Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes. If required by Applicable Law, Operations and the Partnership shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. 

  
 26 

	Section 5.4	Allocation of Consideration. 

 The parties will use commercially reasonable
efforts to agree upon an allocation of all consideration (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the Company Assets owned directly by the Company that are treated as sold for U.S. federal income tax purposes in compliance with the
principles of Section 1060 of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. If the applicable parties agree to such allocation, such parties agree (a) that such allocation shall be used by such parties as the basis for reporting asset
values and other items for purposes of all federal, state, and local Tax Returns, including without limitation Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and (b) that neither such parties nor any of their respective Affiliates will take a position on
any Tax Return, or before any Governmental Authority in connection with the examination of a Tax Return or in any Tax Proceeding that is in any manner inconsistent with such allocation, except as required by Applicable Law or with the written
consent of the other party. 
  

	Section 5.5	Tax Treatment and Related Covenants. 

  

	 	(a)	Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.5, the parties acknowledge that the transactions described in this Agreement are properly characterized as transactions described in Sections 721(a) and 731 of the
Code and agree to file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such treatment. 

  

	 	(b)	 The Operations Cash Amount shall be treated (A) as a reimbursement of Operations’ capital expenditures within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.707-4(d) to the extent that Operations provides to the Partnership on or before January 15, 2015 a statement in the form attached as Exhibit D that states the amount of
qualifying capital expenditures, the basis for the qualification, and evidence satisfactory to the Partnership documenting the capital expenditures and their qualification, (B) as a “debt-financed transfer” to Operations under
Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(b), but only as provided in the following sentence, and (C) as the proceeds of a sale by Operations of the Company Assets to the Partnership to the extent clause (A), clause (B), or any other exception
to the “disguised sale” rules under Section 707 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, are inapplicable, as Operations shall notify the Partnership on or before January 15, 2015. No later than January 15, 2015, the
Partnership shall provide to Operations a calculation of the minimum and maximum amounts that could be treated as qualifying as a “debt-financed transfer” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(b), based on the Partnership’s
exercise of its discretion under Treasury Regulation Section 1.163-8T, and no later than January 31, 2015 Operations will inform the Partnership of the amount within that range of minimum and maximum amounts that Operations wishes to treat
as qualifying as such a debt-financed transfer. The parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the treatment described in this Section 5.5(b), including based upon the amount elected by Operations as a debt-financed
transfer. Except with the prior written consent of Operations, the Partnership agrees to act at all times in a manner consistent with this intended treatment of the Operations Cash 

  
 27 

	 	
Amount, including, if required, disclosing the distribution of the Operations Cash Amount in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-3(c)(2). 

 

	 	(c)	The Distribution Amount and the Excess Amount, if any, shall be treated (A) as a reimbursement of Operations’ capital expenditures within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.707-4(d) to the extent that Operations provides to the Company on or before January 15 of the year following the year in which such amount was paid a statement in the form attached as
Exhibit E that states the amount of qualifying capital expenditures, the basis for the qualification, and evidence satisfactory to the Company documenting the capital expenditures and their qualification and (B) as the proceeds of a sale
by Operations of the Company Assets to the extent clause (A) or any other exception to the “disguised sale” rules under Section 707 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, are inapplicable, as Operations shall notify the Company
on or before January 15 of the year following the year in which such amount was paid. Except with the prior written consent of Operations, the Company agrees to act at all times in a manner consistent with this intended treatment of the
payments described in Section 2.5, including, if required, disclosing the payments in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-3(c)(2). 

 

	 	(d)	The parties acknowledge that Operations is disregarded for federal income tax purposes as an entity apart from Development pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(i); accordingly, references to
Operations in this Article V include Development as the context requires. 

  

	Section 5.6	Conflict. 

 In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Article
V and any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Article V shall control. 
 ARTICLE VI 

INDEMNIFICATION 
  

	Section 6.1	Indemnification of the Partnership. 

 Subject to the limitations set forth in this
Agreement, Development and Operations, from and after the Closing Date, shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold the Partnership, its subsidiaries and their respective securityholders, directors, officers, and employees, and the
officers, directors and employees of the General Partner, but otherwise excluding Development, its Affiliates and the Company Group (the “Partnership Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered or
incurred by any Partnership Indemnified Party as a result of or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty of Development or Operations in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreement, or (ii) any breach of
any agreement or covenant on the part of Development, Operations or the Company made under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreement or in connection with the 

  
 28 

 
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. For purposes of this Section 6.1, whether Development or Operations has breached any of its representations and warranties herein shall be
determined without giving effect to any qualification as to “materiality” (including the words “material” or “Company Material Adverse Effect”). 
  

	Section 6.2	Indemnification of Development. 

 Subject to the limitations set forth in this
Agreement, the Partnership, from and after the Closing Date, shall indemnify, defend and hold Development, its Affiliates (other than any of the Partnership Indemnified Parties) and their respective securityholders, directors, officers, and
employees (the “Development Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered or incurred by the Development Indemnified Parties as a result of or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy of a
representation or warranty of the Partnership in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreement, or (ii) any breach of any agreement or covenant on the part of the Partnership made under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreement or in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. For purposes of this Section 6.2, whether the Partnership has breached any of its representations and warranties herein shall be determined without giving effect to any qualification as to
“materiality” (including the word “material”). 
  

	Section 6.3	Tax Indemnification. 

 With the exception of a breach or inaccuracy of the
representations and warranties of Development and Operations contained in Section 3.10, nothing in this Article VI, other than Sections 6.6 through 6.8, shall apply to liability with respect to Taxes, the liability with respect
to which shall be as set forth in Article V. 
  

	Section 6.4	Survival. 

 All the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing,
notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party hereto, provided that the representations and warranties set forth in Article III and Article IV shall terminate and expire on the date that is fifteen
(15) months following the Closing Date, except (a) the representations and warranties of Development and Operations set forth in Section 3.10 (Taxes) shall survive until the date that is ninety (90) days after the expiration of
the applicable statutes of limitations (including all periods of extension and tolling), (b) the representations and warranties of Development and Operations set forth in Section 3.11 (Environmental Matters) shall terminate and expire on
the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, (c) the representations and warranties of Development and Operations set forth in Section 3.1 (Organization), Section 3.2 (Authority and Approval), Section 3.4(a)
(Ownership), Section 3.4(b) (Issuance of New Interest) and Section 3.18 (Broker Fees) shall survive forever and (d) the representations and warranties of the Partnership set forth in Section 4.1 (Organization and
Existence), Section 4.2 (Authority and Approval) and Section 4.5 (Broker Fees) shall survive forever. After a representation and warranty has terminated and expired, no indemnification shall or may be sought pursuant to this Article
VI on the basis of that representation and warranty by any Person who would have been entitled pursuant to this Article VI to indemnification on the basis of that representation and warranty prior to its termination and expiration,
provided that in the case of each representation and warranty that shall terminate and expire as provided in this Section 6.4, no claim presented 

  
 29 

 
in writing for indemnification pursuant to this Article VI on the basis of that representation and warranty prior to its termination and expiration shall be affected in any way by that
termination and expiration. The indemnification obligations under this Article VI or elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply regardless of whether any suit or action results solely or in part from the active, passive or concurrent negligence
or strict liability of the indemnified party. The covenants and agreements entered into pursuant to this Agreement to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing. 

 

	Section 6.5	Demands. 

  

	 	(a)	Each indemnified party hereunder agrees that promptly upon its discovery of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, including receipt by it of notice of any demand, assertion,
claim, action or proceeding, judicial or otherwise, by any third party (such claims for indemnity involving third-party claims being collectively referred to herein as the “Third Party Indemnity Claim”), with respect to any matter
as to which it claims to be entitled to indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, it will give prompt notice thereof in writing to the indemnifying party, together with a statement of such information respecting any of the foregoing as it
shall have. Such notice shall include a formal demand for indemnification under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the indemnified party fails to notify the indemnifying party thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement in sufficient time to permit the indemnifying party or its
counsel to defend against a Third Party Indemnity Claim and to make a timely response thereto, the indemnifying party’s indemnity obligation relating to such Third Party Indemnity Claim shall not be relieved except in the event and only to the
extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced or damaged by such failure. 

  

	Section 6.6	Right to Contest and Defend. 

  

	 	(a)	The indemnifying party shall be entitled, at its cost and expense, to contest and defend by all appropriate legal proceedings any Third Party Indemnity Claim for which it is called upon to indemnify the indemnified
party under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that notice of the intention to so contest shall be delivered by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt by the indemnifying
party of notice by the indemnified party of the assertion of the Third Party Indemnity Claim. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of the indemnifying party or the indemnified party as may be appropriate. Such contest shall be
conducted by reputable counsel employed by the indemnifying party and not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party, but the indemnified party shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in such proceedings and to be represented
by counsel of its own choosing at its sole cost and expense. 

  
 30 

	 	(b)	The indemnifying party shall have full authority to determine all action to be taken with respect thereto; provided, however, that the indemnifying party will not have the authority to subject the
indemnified party to any obligation whatsoever, other than the performance of purely ministerial tasks or obligations not involving material expense or injunctive relief. If the indemnifying party does not elect to contest any such Third Party
Indemnity Claim, the indemnifying party shall be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Indemnity Claim, the indemnified party shall agree to any
settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Indemnity Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party
Indemnity Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with such Third Party Indemnity Claim and which would not otherwise adversely affect the indemnified party as determined by the indemnified party in its sole discretion.

  

	 	(c)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Indemnity Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the
indemnified party in defending such Third Party Indemnity Claim) if the Third Party Indemnity Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the indemnified party which the indemnified party
reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Third Party Indemnity Claim can be so separated from that for
money damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages. 

  

	Section 6.7	Cooperation. 

 If requested by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party
agrees to cooperate with the indemnifying party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Indemnity Claim that the indemnifying party elects to contest or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party
Indemnity Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person, and the indemnifying party will reimburse the indemnified party for any expenses incurred by it in so cooperating. At no cost or expense to the indemnified party, the indemnifying party
shall cooperate with the indemnified party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Indemnity Claim. 
  

	Section 6.8	Right to Participate. 

 The indemnified party agrees to afford the indemnifying
party and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to participate in, conferences with all Persons, including Governmental Authorities, asserting any Third Party Indemnity Claim against the indemnified party or conferences with
representatives of or counsel for such Persons. 

  
 31 

	Section 6.9	Payment of Damages. 

 The indemnification required hereunder shall be made by
periodic payments of the amount of Damages in connection therewith within ten (10) days as and when reasonably specific bills are received by, or Damages are incurred and reasonable evidence thereof is delivered to, the indemnifying party. In
calculating any amount to be paid by an indemnifying party by reason of the provisions of this Agreement, the amount shall be reduced by all insurance proceeds and any indemnification reimbursement proceeds received from third parties credited to or
received by the indemnified party related to the Damages. 
  

	Section 6.10	Direct Claim. 

 Any claim by an indemnified party with respect to any Damages
which do not result from a Third Party Indemnity Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the indemnifying party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, stating the nature of such claim in reasonable detail and
indicating the estimated amount, if practicable. The indemnifying party will have a period of ninety (90) days from receipt of such Direct Claim within which to respond to such Direct Claim. If the indemnifying party does not respond within
such ninety (90) day period, the indemnifying party will be deemed to have accepted such Direct Claim. If the indemnifying party rejects such Direct Claim, the indemnified party will be free to seek enforcement of its rights to indemnification
under this Agreement. 
  

	Section 6.11	Limitations on Indemnification. 

  

	 	(a)	To the extent that the Partnership Indemnified Parties would otherwise be entitled to indemnification for Damages pursuant to Section 6.1(i), Development and Operations shall be liable only if (i) the
Damages with respect to any individual claim exceed $100,000 (the “Minimum Claim Amount”) and (ii) the Damages for all claims that exceed the Minimum Claim Amount exceed, in the aggregate, $6,000,000 (the “Deductible
Amount”), and then Development and Operations shall be liable only for Damages to the extent of any excess over the Deductible Amount. In no event shall Development’s and Operations’ aggregate liability to the Partnership
Indemnified Parties under Section 6.1 exceed $60,000,000 (the “Ceiling Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Deductible Amount and the Ceiling Amount shall not apply to breaches or inaccuracies of representations and
warranties contained in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.4(a), Section 3.4(b), Section 3.18 and Section 3.19. 

  

	 	(b)	Additionally, neither the Partnership, on the one hand, nor Development and Operations, on the other hand, will be liable as an indemnitor under this Agreement for any consequential, incidental, special, indirect or
exemplary damages suffered or incurred by the indemnified party or parties except to the extent resulting pursuant to Third Party Indemnity Claims. 

  
 32 

	Section 6.12	Sole Remedy. 

 No party shall have liability under this Agreement, the Ancillary
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except as is provided in Article V or this Article VI (other than claims or causes of action arising from fraud).

this Agreement. 

  

	 	(c)	Each party to this Agreement waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any right it may have to receive damages from any other party based on any theory of liability for any special, indirect,

 35 

	Section 7.6	Public Statements. 

 The parties hereto shall consult with each other and no party
shall issue any public announcement or statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the consent of the other party, unless the party desiring to make such announcement or statement, after seeking such

	Section 7.7	Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. 

  

	 	(a)	This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Each party to this Agreement agrees that no other party to this Agreement (including its agents and representatives) has made any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement to or with such
party relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, other than those expressly set forth herein and in the Ancillary Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	No supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by each party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall
constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. 

 

	Section 7.8	Conflicting Provisions. 

 This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreement, read as a
whole, set forth the parties’ rights, responsibilities and liabilities with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreement, and as between them, specific provisions prevail over general

	Section 7.9	Binding Effect and Assignment. 

 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, benefits or obligations hereunder shall be assigned or transferred, by operation of law or otherwise, by any
party hereto without the prior written consent of each other party. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person or entity other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns,
any rights, benefits or obligations hereunder, except for express language with respect to the Partnership Indemnified Parties and the Development Indemnified Parties contained in the indemnification provisions of Article VI. 

  
 36 

	Section 7.10	Severability. 

 If any provision of the Agreement is rendered or declared illegal

illegal or unenforceable, but all of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
  

	Section 7.11	Interpretation. 

 It is expressly agreed by the parties that neither this
Agreement nor the Ancillary Agreement shall be construed against any party, and no consideration shall be given or presumption made, on the basis of who drafted this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreement or any provision hereof or thereof or who
supplied the form of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreement. Each party agrees that this Agreement has been purposefully drawn and correctly reflects its understanding of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, therefore, waives the
application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

 The headings of the several Articles and
Sections herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The Disclosure Schedules and the Exhibits referred to herein are attached hereto and

 With respect to any action, notice, consent, approval
or waiver that is required to be taken or given or that may be taken or given by the Partnership with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, such action, notice, consent, approval or waiver shall be taken or given by the Conflicts

Company in the amount of $570,000,000. The ownership by a Unitholder of Units shall invest such Unitholder with the Economic Interest therein (except to the extent Transferred to an Assignee). For purposes of this Agreement, Units held by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed not to be outstanding. The Company may issue fractional Units, and all Units shall be rounded to the fourth decimal place. 

(b) Issuance of Additional Units. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5, the Managing Member, with the prior
written consent of all of the Members, shall have the right to cause the Company to issue at any time after the Effective Date, and for such amount and form of consideration as the Managing Member may determine, (i) additional Units (of
existing classes or new classes) or other Equity Securities of the Company (including creating other classes or series thereof having such powers, designations, preferences and rights as may be determined by the Managing Member),
(ii) obligations, evidences of indebtedness or other securities or interests convertible or exchangeable into Units or other Equity Securities of the Company and (iii) 

  
 13 

 
warrants, options or other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire Units or other Equity Securities of the Company, and in connection therewith, and, subject to the provisions of Section
6.5, the Managing Member shall have the power to make such amendments to this Agreement as the Managing Member in its sole discretion deems necessary or appropriate to give effect to such additional issuance, provided such additional issuance
has been approved by all of the Members. 
 (c) Conversion of Preferred Units. On the Conversion Date, each Preferred
Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Conversion Date shall automatically convert into, and be reclassified as, a Common Unit on a one-for-one basis, and the Company shall update the Schedule of Members accordingly. 

3.2 Admission of Members; Additional Members. 

(a) Schedule of Members. The Company shall maintain and keep at its principal executive office a Schedule of
Members on which it shall set forth the name and address of each Member and the number of Units of each class owned by each Member. 

(b) Additional Members. The Managing Member shall have the right to admit Additional Members, subject to the prior
written consent of all of the Members. A Person may be admitted to the Company as an Additional Member upon furnishing to the Managing Member (i) a joinder agreement, in form satisfactory to the Managing Member, pursuant to which such Person
agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) such other documents or instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as a Member (including entering into an investor
representation agreement or such other documents as the Managing Member may deem appropriate). Such admission shall become effective on the date on which the Managing Member determines that such conditions have been satisfied and when any such
admission is shown on the books and records of the Company. Upon the admission of an Additional Member, the Schedule of Members attached hereto shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units and other interests in the Company of such
Additional Member. 
 3.3 Capital Accounts. 

(a) The Company shall maintain a separate capital account for each Unitholder according to the rules of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) (each a “Capital Account”). The Capital Account of each Unitholder shall be credited initially with an amount equal to such Unitholder’s cash contributions and
the Fair Market Value of property contributed to the Company by the Unitholder (net of any liabilities securing such contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to). 

(b) The Capital Account of each Unitholder shall (i) be credited with all Income allocated to such Unitholder pursuant to
Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, and with the amount equal to such Unitholder’s cash contributions and the Fair Market Value of property contributed to the Company by the Unitholder (net of any liabilities securing such contributed
property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to) following the Effective Date, and (ii) be debited with all Loss allocated to such Unitholder pursuant to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, and with the amount of
cash and the Gross Asset Value of any property (net of liabilities assumed by such Unitholder and liabilities to which such property is subject) distributed by the Company to such Unitholder. 

(c) The Company may, upon the occurrence of the events specified in Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), increase or decrease the Capital Accounts of the Unitholders in accordance with the rules of such Regulations and Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) to reflect a revaluation of Company property. 

  
 14 

 3.4 Negative Capital Accounts. No Unitholder shall be required to pay to
any other Unitholder or the Company any deficit or negative balance that may exist from time to time in such Unitholder’s Capital Account (including upon and after dissolution and termination of the Company). 

3.5 No Withdrawal. No Person shall be entitled to withdraw any part of such Person’s Capital Contributions or
Capital Account or to receive any Distribution from the Company, except as expressly provided herein. 
 3.6 Loans From
Unitholders. Loans by Unitholders to the Company shall not be considered Capital Contributions. If any Unitholder shall loan funds to the Company, then the making of such loans shall not result in any increase in the Capital Account balance of
such Unitholder. The amount of any such loans shall be a debt of the Company to such Unitholder and shall be payable or collectible in accordance with the terms and conditions upon which such loans are made. 

3.7 No Right of Partition. No Unitholder shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation
of law of any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or, except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, be entitled to
Distributions of specific assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 3.8 Interests Not Governed by UCC Article
8. Units are not securities governed by Article 8 of the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code and are not to be certificated. 

3.9 Additional Capital Contributions. 

(a) From and after the Effective Date and during the period ending on the day on which Distributions are made pursuant to
Section 4.1(a) with respect to the Quarter ended September 30, 2015, if the Available Cash as of such time with respect to any Quarter ending on or prior to September 30, 2015 is less than the Quarterly Preference Amount (as
determined before any Capital Contribution is to be made pursuant to this Section 3.9(a) with respect to such time), Operations shall make a Capital Contribution in cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Quarterly Preference
Amount over the Available Cash (as determined before any Capital Contribution is to be made pursuant to this Section 3.9(a) with respect to such time) such that, at the time of the Distribution with respect to such Quarter pursuant to
Section 4.1(a)(i) (after giving effect to any Capital Contribution made pursuant to this Section 3.9(a)), the amount of Available Cash is equal to the Quarterly Preference Amount. 

(b) From and after the Effective Date, PXP Holdings shall have no obligation to make any additional Capital Contribution to
the Company to complete the Pony Express Construction Activities. If, after the Effective Date, the Company is in need of additional capital to complete the Pony Express Construction Activities, Operations shall have the sole obligation to make one
or more Additional Capital Contributions in the amount necessary to enable completion of the Pony Express Construction Activities, as reasonably determined by the Managing Member. 

(c) No Additional Capital Contribution by Operations in accordance with this Section 3.9 shall result in the issuance
of additional Units to Operations or dilute PXP Holdings’ then-existing Membership Interest.

 ARTICLE IV 

DISTRIBUTIONS 

4.1 Distributions. 

(a) On and prior to the Conversion Date, within 45 days following the end of each Quarter, the Managing Member shall determine
the amount of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter, and an amount equal to 100% of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter shall be distributed as follows: 

(i) first, 100 percent to the Preferred Unitholders in proportion to the number of Preferred Units then held by each
such Unitholder, to the extent of the Quarterly Preference Amount; 
 (ii) second, 100 percent to the holders of
Common Units in proportion to the number of Common Units then held by each such Unitholder, to the extent of the Quarterly Preference Catch Up; 

(iii) third, 100 percent to the holders of Common Units in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Unitholders’
Unreturned Additional Capital Contributions; and 
 (iv) thereafter, to the Unitholders in proportion to the number
of Units then held by each such Unitholder. 
 (b) Following the Conversion Date, within 45 days following the end of each
Quarter, the Managing Member shall determine the amount of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter, and an amount equal to 100% of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter shall be distributed as follows: 

(i) first, to the Unitholders in proportion to the number of Units then held by each such Unitholder until the
aggregate amount of distributions pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)(i) equals $50,000,000; 
 (ii) second, 100
percent to the Common Unitholders that were Common Unitholders immediately prior to the Conversion Date in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Unitholders’ Unreturned Additional Capital Contributions; and 

(iii) thereafter, to the Unitholders in proportion to the number of Units held by each such Unitholder. 

  
 16 

 4.2 Distributions to Operations. Notwithstanding Section 4.1 and
the other provisions hereof, the Company shall make the Distributions to Operations described in this Section 4.2. 

(a) Immediately following the receipt by the Company of the Capital Contribution made by PXP Holdings as of the Effective
Date, the Company shall distribute to Operations or its designee(s) the Operations Distribution Amount. 
 (b) Promptly
following completion of the Pony Express Construction Activities, the Company shall distribute to Operations or its designee(s) the excess, if any, of (x) the estimated amount of cash needed for the Company Group to complete the Pony Express
Construction Activities (as determined as of the Effective Date), over (y) the amount actually spent or disbursed by or on behalf of the Company after the Effective Date to complete the Pony Express Construction Activities. 

4.3 Successors. For purposes of determining the amount of Distributions, each Unitholder shall be treated as having
received the Distributions received by its predecessors in respect of any of such Unitholder’s Units. 
 4.4
Distributions In-Kind. To the extent that the Company distributes property in-kind to the Unitholders, the Company shall be treated as making a Distribution equal
to the Fair Market Value of such property for purposes of Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 and such property shall be treated as if it were sold for an amount equal to its Fair Market Value. Any resulting gain or loss shall be allocated
to the Unitholders’ Capital Accounts in accordance with Section 5.1 and Section 5.2. 
 ARTICLE V 

ALLOCATIONS 

5.1 Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2, Net Income and Net Loss (and, if necessary,
individual items of Income and Loss) shall be allocated annually (and at such other times as the Managing Member determines) to the Unitholders in such manner that the Capital Account balance of each Unitholder shall, to the greatest extent
possible, be equal to the amount, positive or negative, that would be distributed to such Unitholder (in the case of a positive amount) or for which such Unitholder would be liable to the Company under this Agreement (in the case of a negative
amount), if (a) the Company were to sell the assets of the Company for their Gross Asset Values, (b) all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Values of the assets
securing such liability), (c) the Company were to distribute the proceeds of sale pursuant to Section 4.1 and Section 4.1 and (d) the Company were to dissolve pursuant to Article X, minus such Unitholder’s share
of Company Minimum Gain or Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. 
 5.2
Special Allocations. 
 (a) Loss attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated in the manner required by
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If there is a net decrease during a taxable year in Member Minimum Gain, Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) shall be allocated
to the Unitholders in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 5.2(a) is intended to be a “partner nonrecourse debt
minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

  
 17 

 (b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(a), if there is a net
decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Unitholder shall be allocated Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.2(b) is intended to be a “minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 
 (c)
If any Unitholder that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) has an
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any taxable year, computed after the application of Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(b) but before the application of any other provision of Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and
Section 5.3, then Income for such taxable year shall be allocated to such Unitholder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance as quickly as possible. This Section 5.2(c) is intended to be a “qualified
income offset” provision as described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

(d) Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the
Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable. Nonrecourse deductions (as defined in Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to the number of Units held by each
such Unitholder. 
 (e) No Member shall be allocated Net Loss in any Fiscal Year which would create or increase an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit. Net Loss which would be allocated to a Member but for the preceding sentence shall be reallocated among the Members in the ratio of the number of Units then held by each but only to the extent that the Net Loss does not
cause any Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. 
 (f) Income and Loss described in clause (d) of the
definition of Gross Asset Value shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m). 
 (g) The allocations set forth in
Section 5.2(a) through Section 5.2(f) inclusive (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 of the Regulations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Unitholders intend to allocate Income and Loss of the Company or to make Distributions. Accordingly,
notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and Section 5.3, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, items of Income and Loss of the Company shall be allocated among the Unitholders so as to
eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations and thereby cause the respective Capital Account balances of the Unitholders to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if Income and Loss had been allocated without
reference to the Regulatory Allocations. In general, the Unitholders anticipate that this shall be accomplished by specially allocating other Income and Loss among the Unitholders so that the net amount of Regulatory Allocations and such special
allocations to each such Unitholder is zero. 

  
 18 

 5.3 Tax Allocations. 

(a) The income, gains, losses and deductions of the Company shall be allocated for federal, state and local income tax
purposes among the Unitholders in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses and deductions among the Unitholders for purposes of computing their Capital Accounts, and each tax credit shall be allocated to the Members in the same
manner as the receipt or expenditure giving rise to such credit is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 5.2; except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, then the Company’s
subsequent income, gains, losses and deductions for tax purposes shall be allocated among the Unitholders so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts. 

(b) Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the
Company shall be allocated among the Unitholders in accordance with Code Section 704(c) so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset
Value using the remedial allocation method described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(d). 
 (c) If the Gross Asset Value
of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction
with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c). 

(d) Pursuant to Regulations Section 1.1245-1(e), to the extent the Company recognizes gain as a result of a sale,
exchange or other disposition of Company assets which is taxable as recapture income under Sections 1245 or 1250 of the Code or unrecaptured Section 1250 gain under Section 1(h) of the Code, such recapture income shall be allocated among
the Members in the same proportion as the depreciation and amortization giving rise to such recapture income was allocable among the Members. In no event, however, shall any Member be allocated recapture income hereunder in excess of the amount of
gain allocated to the Member under this Agreement. Any recapture income that is not allocated to a Member due to the gain limitation described in the previous sentence shall be allocated among those Members whose shares of total gain on the sale,
exchange or other disposition of the property exceed their share of depreciation and amortization attributable to Company assets, in proportion to their relative shares of the total allocable gain. 

(e) Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 are solely for the purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall
not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Unitholder’s Capital Account or share of Income, Loss, Distributions or other Company items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. 

5.4 Unitholders’ Tax Reporting. The Unitholders acknowledge and are aware of the income tax consequences of the
allocations made pursuant to this Article V and, except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article V in reporting their shares of Company
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal, state and local income tax purposes. 
 5.5 Indemnification and
Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Unitholder. If the Company is required by applicable law to make any payment to a Governmental Entity that is 

  
 19 

 
specifically attributable to a Unitholder or a Unitholder’s status as such (including federal withholding taxes, state or local personal property taxes and state or local unincorporated
business taxes), then such Unitholder shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including interest, penalties and related expenses). The Managing Member may offset Distributions to which a Person is otherwise entitled under
this Agreement against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 5.5. A Unitholder’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 5.5 shall survive termination, dissolution,
liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 5.5, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Unitholder under
this Section 5.5, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification, with interest calculated at a rate equal to 10 percentage points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by applicable law). 

5.6 Reimbursement of Operating Costs. The Managing Member will not be compensated for its services as the Managing
Member. The Company shall, and shall cause members of the Company Group to, reimburse the Managing Member, Operations and their respective Affiliates on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the Managing Member may determine, for all Operating
Costs they incur or pay on behalf of the Company Group. With respect to all Operating Costs that are not directly incurred by a member of the Company Group, the Managing Member shall determine the allocation of Operating Costs among the Company
Group, the Managing Member, Operations and their respective Affiliates based on the methodology generally used by the Managing Member and its Affiliates to allocate overhead costs and expenses to their Affiliates. 

ARTICLE VI 
 RIGHTS AND
DUTIES OF MEMBERS 
 6.1 Power and Authority of Members. Unless delegated such power in accordance with
Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, no Member (other than the Managing Member in its capacity as Managing Member) shall, in its capacity as such, have the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company in any manner, to do
any act that would be (or could be construed as) binding on the Company, or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, and the Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Managing Member of the powers and rights conferred on it by the Act
and by this Agreement. 
 6.2 Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.2, as
specifically set forth in this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law, Members holding Preferred Units and Common Units shall vote together as a single class, and a Member shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Preferred Unit
and one (1) vote for each Common Unit held by such Member in connection with all matters to be voted upon by the Members of the Company (without prejudice to any consent rights that the holders of such Units have expressly been granted under
this Agreement). 
 6.3 Liability of Unitholders. 

(a) No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
no Unitholder shall have any personal liability whatsoever in such Unitholder’s capacity as a Unitholder, whether to the Company, to any of the other Unitholders, to the creditors of the Company or to any other third Person for the debts,
obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise (including those arising as a Unitholder or an equityholder, an owner or a shareholder of another Person). Each Unitholder shall be liable only to make such
Unitholder’s Capital Contribution to the Company, if applicable, and the other payments provided for expressly herein. 

  
 20 

 (b) Return of Distributions. Under the Act, a Unitholder of a limited
liability company may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Unitholder. It is the intent of the Unitholders that no Distribution to any Unitholder pursuant to Article IV or Article X
shall be deemed to constitute money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act, and the Unitholders agree that each such Distribution shall constitute a compromise of the Unitholders within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, and the Unitholder receiving such Distribution shall not be required to return to any Person any such money or property, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. If,
however, any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Unitholder is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Unitholder and not of the other
Unitholders. 
 6.4 Meetings of Members. 

(a) Special Meetings. Special meetings of Members may be called for any purpose and may be held at such time and place,
within or without the State of Delaware, as shall be stated in a notice of meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof. Such meetings may be called at any time by any Member. 

(b) Notice. Whenever Members (or any class of Members) are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, written,
printed or electronic (whether by e-mail or facsimile) notice stating the place, date, time and the purpose or purposes, of such meeting, shall be given to each Member entitled to vote at such meeting not less than five (5) nor more than thirty
(30) calendar days before the date of the meeting. Attendance of a Person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the Person 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. 
 (c) Quorum. Members
holding 100% of each class or classes of Units entitled to vote, present in person, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Members, and Members holding 100% of the Units of any class, present in person, shall constitute a quorum at all
meetings of such class. 
 (d) Vote Required. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of all of the Members
present in person at a duly called meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Members. Where a separate vote by class of Units is required, the affirmative vote of the Members holding 100% of the interests of such
class present in person at the meeting of such class shall be the act of such class. 
 (e) Action by Written
Consent. Any action required to be taken at any special meeting of Members, or at any meeting of any class of Members, or any action that may be taken at any special meeting of such Members or class of Members, may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken and bearing the dates of signature of the Members who signed the consent or consents, shall be signed by all of the Members and shall be
delivered to the Company by delivery to the Company’s principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book or books in which proceedings of meetings of the Members are recorded. Any action taken pursuant
to such written consent or consents of the Members or any class of Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting of the Members or the Members of such class. 

  
 21 

 (f) Record Dates. For purposes of determining the Members entitled to
notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members or any class of Members or to give written consent without a meeting, the Managing Member may set a record date, which shall not be less than two (2) nor more than sixty (60) calendar days
before (i) the date of the meeting or (ii) in the event that approvals are sought without a meeting, the date by which Members are requested in writing by the Managing Member to give such approvals. 

(g) Telephonic Participation. Members may participate in and act at any meeting of Members through the use of a
conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such meeting pursuant to this Section 6.4(g) shall constitute presence in person
at such meeting. 
 6.5 Approval Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and the
Managing Member shall not, and shall take all action possible to ensure that each Subsidiary of the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of all of the Members (which consent may be withheld in each Member’s sole discretion):

 (a) amend the Company’s certificate of formation or this Agreement, or the formation or governing documents of any
of the Company’s Subsidiaries; 
 (b) redeem, acquire or otherwise purchase any Unit or other Equity Security of the
Company;

 (h) enter
into, amend or modify any material joint ventures or farmout agreements, except as contemplated by the Budget; 
 (i)
acquire, for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, assets in excess of $25,000,000 in any single transaction or series of related transactions, except as contemplated by the Budget; 

(j) make any investments in any Person in excess of $25,000,000, except as contemplated by the Budget; 

  
 22 

 (k) dispose of assets of the Company Group in excess of $25,000,000 in any
single transaction or series of related transactions, except as contemplated by the Budget; 
 (l) authorize or issue any
Equity Security; 
 (m) incur any Indebtedness or issue any debt security (other than pursuant to the Budget); 

(n) approve, amend or, in any material respect, deviate from the Budget (including with respect to operating expenditures,
capital expenditures or commodity hedging); 
 (o) other than Distributions under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2,
authorize, declare or pay any Distribution; 
 (p) change the independent auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries; or

 (q) agree to do any of the foregoing. 

ARTICLE VII 
 MANAGEMENT
OF THE COMPANY 
 7.1 Managing Member. All power and authority to manage and control the business and affairs of
the Company shall be exclusively vested in the Managing Member, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. The Managing Member shall have the full power and authority on behalf and in the name of the Company to carry out any and all
of the objectives and purposes of the Company contemplated by Section 2.4 and to perform all acts that the Managing Member may deem necessary, advisable or incidental thereto in connection therewith. 

7.2 Officers. The Company shall have such individuals as officers (“Officers”) as may be appointed by
the Managing Member. The Officers of the Company may consist of Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, one or more Executive Vice Presidents, one or more Vice Presidents, one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, a Secretary, one
or more Assistant Secretaries, or such other Officers as may be appointed by the Managing Member. One person may hold, and perform the duties of, any two or more of such offices. Compensation of Officers shall be fixed by the Managing Member from
time to time. Any Officer may be removed, with or without cause, at any time by the Managing Member. In its sole discretion, the Managing Member may choose not to fill any office for any period as it may deem advisable. No Officer need be a Member.
Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Managing Member shall determine the scope of authority of any Officer in its sole discretion, provided that unless the Managing Member decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used
for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the assignment of such title will constitute the delegation of the authority and duties that are normally associated with that office, subject to any specific
delegation of authority and duties made by the Managing Member from time to time. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 7.2 may be revoked at any time and for any reason or no reason by the Managing Member. The individuals serving as
Officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Date shall remain in such capacity as the Officers of the Company as of the Effective Date. 

7.3 Further Delegation of Authority. The Managing Member may, from time to time, delegate to any Person (including any
Member or Officer) such authority and powers to act 

  
 23 

 
on behalf of the Company as it shall deem advisable in its sole discretion. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 7.3 may be revoked at any time and for any reason or no reason by
the Managing Member. 
 7.4 Performance of Duties; Liability of Managing Member and Officers. 

(a) In performing its duties, each of the Managing Member and the Officers shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the
provisions of this Agreement and on information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Company
and its Subsidiaries or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Unitholders might properly be paid), of the following other Persons or groups: (a) one or more Officers or employees of the Company or
any of its Affiliates, (b) any attorney, independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (c) any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, in each case, as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely
on information to the extent provided in Section 18-406 of the Act. No individual who is an Officer shall be personally liable under any judgment of a court, or in any other manner, for any debt,
obligation or liability of the Company, whether that liability or obligation arises in contract, tort or otherwise solely by reason of being an Officer. 

(b) This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any Indemnitee. Furthermore, each
of the Members and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by Applicable Law, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligation of each Indemnitee to each other and to the
Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnitee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace
such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnitee. Whenever in this Agreement an Indemnitee is permitted or required to make a decision (including a decision that is in such Indemnitee’s “discretion” or under a grant of similar
authority or latitude), the Indemnitee shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as such Indemnitee desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or
factors affecting the Company or any other Person. Whenever in this Agreement an Indemnitee is permitted or required to make a decision in such Indemnitee’s “good faith,” the Indemnitee shall act under such express standard and shall
not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or any other Applicable Law. 
 7.5
Indemnification. 
 (a) To the fullest extent permitted by law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in
this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, costs, damages, liabilities, joint and several, expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all threatened, pending or completed claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
and whether formal or informal and including appeals, in which an Indemnitee may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of his, her or its status as an Indemnitee, regardless of whether an

  
 24 

 
Indemnitee continues to be an Indemnitee at the time any such liability or expense is paid or incurred, unless it is determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction that such Indemnitee, with respect to the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding,
that such Indemnitee had knowledge that his, her or its conduct was unlawful. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law,
expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Section 7.5(a) shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final and
non-appealable disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to
be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to advance any expenses to the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7.5 if the Managing Member reasonably determines in
good faith, within 30 days of the Indemnitee’s request to be advanced expenses pursuant to this Section 7.5, that the facts known to them at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that the Indemnitee
acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his, her or its conduct was unlawful. 

(c) The indemnification provided by this Section 7.5 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee
may be entitled pursuant to any approval of the Managing Member, as a matter of law or equity, under this Agreement, any other agreement, or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure
to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, and administrators of such Indemnitee. The Company shall not be required to indemnify any Member in connection with any losses, claims, demands, actions, disputes, suits or proceedings, of any Member
against any other Member. 
 (d) The Company may purchase and maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance or
similar coverage for its Managing Member, Officers or such other Persons as the Managing Member shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by, such Person in connection with the
Company’s activities or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Company, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement, in such amounts and
with such deductibles or self-insured retentions as determined in the sole discretion of the Managing Member. 
 (e) Any
indemnification hereunder shall be satisfied only out of the assets of the Company, and the Members shall not be personally liable for indemnification under this Section 7.5 and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or
property to the Company to enable it to effectuate such indemnification. 
 (f) An Indemnitee shall not be denied
indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.5 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

  
 25 

 (g) Subject to Section 7.5(c), the provisions of this Section 7.5
are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. 

(h) No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.5 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate,
reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company, nor the obligations of the Company to indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.5 as in
effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise
or be asserted. 
 7.6 Approved Budget. The Managing Member shall prepare a proposed operating budget and a proposed
capital budget for the Company (collectively, the “Budget”) for each calendar year and shall submit such proposed operating budget to the other Members for the forthcoming budget period, not later than fifteen (15) days prior
to the end of each calendar year. No Budget shall become effective without the prior approval of all of the Members. 
 ARTICLE VIII

 TAX MATTERS 

8.1 Tax Status. The Unitholders intend that the Company shall be treated as a partnership for federal and, if
applicable, state or local income tax purposes, and each Unitholder and the Company shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. 

8.2 Preparation of Tax Returns. The Tax Matters Member shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all
returns required to be filed by the Company. Each Member will upon request supply to the Tax Matters Member all pertinent information in its possession relating to the operations of the Company necessary to enable the Company’s returns to be
prepared and filed. 
 8.3 Tax Elections. The taxable year shall be the Fiscal Year unless the Managing Member shall
determine otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. The Company shall make the election described in Code Section 754 with respect to the first taxable year of the Company. Subject to the approval rights set forth in Section 6.5, the
Tax Matters Member shall determine whether to make or revoke any other available election pursuant to the Code. Each Member will upon request supply any information necessary to give proper effect to such election. 

8.4 Tax Controversies. The Managing Member is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Member and is authorized and required
to represent the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional
services reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Each Member agrees to cooperate reasonably with the Company and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Company with respect to the conduct of such proceedings.
The Tax Matters Members shall keep the Members reasonably informed of the progress of any examinations, audits or other proceedings, and shall provide the Members with information on a full and timely basis. 

  
 26 

 8.5 Tax Allocations. All matters concerning allocations for United States
federal, state, and local and non-United States income tax purposes, including accounting procedures, not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined in good faith by the Tax
Matters Member. 
 8.6 Fiscal Year; Taxable Year. Each of the Fiscal Year and the taxable year of the Company shall
end on December 31 of each calendar year; provided that the taxable year of the Company shall end on a different date if necessary to comply with Section 706 of the Code. 

ARTICLE IX 
 TRANSFER OF
UNITS; SUBSTITUTE MEMBERS 
 9.1 Restrictions on Transfers. Except for the restrictions on Transfer applicable to
Operations under Article V of the Omnibus Agreement and as set forth in this Article IX, the Units are freely transferable. 

9.2 Void Transfers. To the greatest extent permitted by the Act and other applicable law, any Transfer by any Member of
any Units or other interest in the Company in contravention of this Agreement shall be void and ineffective and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other Person. In the event of any Transfer in contravention of this Agreement, the
purported Transferee shall have no right to any profits, losses or Distributions of the Company or any other rights of a Member. 

9.3 Substituted Member. Each Person to whom any Unit is Transferred in accordance with the provisions of this Article
IX shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a holder of such Units. Upon such agreement, such Person shall become a Substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member with respect to such Unit, and the
Schedule of Members attached hereto shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units of such Substituted Member and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating to the Transferee with regard to the Transferred
Units. 
 9.4 Effect of Transfer. Following a Transfer of any Unit that is permitted under this Article IX, the
Transferee of such Unit shall be treated as having made all of the Capital Contributions in respect of, and received all of the Distributions received in respect of, such Unit, and shall receive allocations and Distributions under Article IV
and Article X in respect of such Unit as if such Transferee were a Member. 
 9.5 Additional Transfer
Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, no Transfer of Units or any other interest in the Company may be made unless in the opinion of counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), satisfactory in form and
substance to the Managing Member and counsel for the Company (which opinion requirement may be waived, in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of the Managing Member), such Transfer would not (a) violate any federal securities laws or any
state securities or “blue sky” laws (including any investor suitability standards) applicable to the Company or the interest to be Transferred, (b) cause the Company to be required to register as an “investment company”
under the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, or (c) cause the Company to have more than 100 partners (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h), including the look-through rule in Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)). 

9.6 Effective Date. Any Transfer and any related admission of a Person as a Member in compliance with this
Article IX shall be deemed effective on such date that the Transferee or successor in interest complies with the requirements of this Agreement. 

  
 27 

 ARTICLE X 

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION 

10.1 Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Additional Members or Substituted Members.
Subject to Section 6.5, the Company shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up upon the first of the following to occur: 

(a) the vote or consent of all of the Members to dissolve the Company; or 

(b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under
Section 18-802 of the Act. 
 Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.1,
the Company is intended to have perpetual existence. An Event of Withdrawal shall not cause a dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

10.2 Liquidation and Termination. 

(a) On the dissolution of the Company, the Managing Member shall act as liquidator or (in its sole discretion) may appoint one
(1) or more representatives, Members or other Persons as liquidator(s). The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation
shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company with all of the power and authority of the Managing Member. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows: 

(i) the liquidators shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the
Company (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the
liquidators may reasonably determine); and 
 (ii) after payment or provision for payment of all of the Company’s
liabilities has been made in accordance with Section 10.2(a)(i), all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 and Section 4.2, after giving effect to all prior Distributions,
and a final allocation of all items of income, gain, loss and expense shall be made in such a manner that, immediately before distribution of such remaining assets, the balance of each Unitholder’s Capital Account shall be equal to the
respective net amounts, positive or negative, that would be distributed to such Unitholder or for which such Unitholder would be liable to the Company as provided herein and in the Act. 

  
 28 

 10.3 Complete Distribution. The distribution to a Unitholder in accordance
with the provisions of Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to the Unitholder of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Unitholder of its interest in the Company and all the Company’s property and constitutes
a compromise to which all Unitholders have consented within the meaning of the Act. 
 10.4 Cancellation of
Certificate. On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Company is terminated (and the Company shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the Managing Member (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may
require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take such other actions as may be necessary
to terminate the Company. The Company shall be deemed to continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 10.4. 

10.5 Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and
affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 10.2 to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up. 

10.6 Return of Capital. The liquidators shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any
portion thereof to the Unitholders (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets). 

10.7 HSR Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) is applicable to any Unitholder by reason of the fact that any assets of the Company
shall be distributed to such Unitholder in connection with the dissolution of the Company, the dissolution of the Company shall not be consummated until such time as the applicable waiting periods (and extensions thereof) under the HSR Act have
expired or otherwise been terminated with respect to each such Unitholder. 
 ARTICLE XI 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

11.1 Preemptive Rights. 

(a) Subject to Section 6.5(l), the Company shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or
reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, any Equity Securities or debt securities of the Company (collectively, the “Preemptive Securities”) unless the Company shall have first offered to sell to each Member holding
Preferred Units and Common Units (each a “Preemptive Holder”) such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities, at a price and on such other terms as shall have been specified by the Company in writing
delivered to each such Preemptive Holder (the “Preemptive Offer”), which Preemptive Offer shall by its terms remain open and irrevocable for a period of at least ten (10) calendar days from the date it is delivered by the
Company (the “Preemptive Offer Period”). Each Preemptive Holder may elect to purchase all or any portion of such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities as specified in the Preemptive Offer at the
price and upon the terms specified therein by delivering written notice of such election to the Company as soon as practical but in any event within the Preemptive Offer Period; provided that if the Company is issuing Equity Securities
together as a unit with any debt securities or other Equity Securities, then any Preemptive Holder who elects to purchase the Preemptive Securities pursuant to this Section 11.1 must purchase the same proportionate mix of all of such
securities. 

  
 29 

 (b) Each Preemptive Holder’s “Preemptive Share” of
Preemptive Securities shall be a number of such Preemptive Securities multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Preferred Units and Common Units held by such Preemptive Holder and the denominator of which is the number of
Preferred Units and Common Units outstanding prior to the issuance of the Preemptive Securities. 
 (c) Upon the expiration
of the Preemptive Offer Period, the Company shall be entitled to sell such Preemptive Securities which the Preemptive Holders have not elected to purchase during the 120-calendar days following such expiration
on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Preemptive Holders. Any Preemptive Securities to be sold by the Company after such 120-calendar day
period must be reoffered to the Preemptive Holders pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.1. 
 (d) The
provisions of this Section 11.1 shall not apply to the following issuances of Equity Securities: 
 (i)
securities issued in connection with acquisitions or commercial borrowings or leasing; 
 (ii) securities issued upon
conversion of convertible or exchangeable securities of the Company that are outstanding on the Effective Date or were not issued in violation of this Section 11.1; and 

(iii) a subdivision of Units (including any Unit dividend or Unit split), any combination of Units (including any reverse Unit
split) or any recapitalization, reorganization or reclassification of the Company. 
 (e) The preemptive rights granted in
this Section 11.1 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Company Sale. 
 11.2 Books and Records. The
Company shall keep (a) correct and complete books and records of account, including annual audited financial statements and unaudited monthly and quarterly financial statements, and annual business plans showing quarterly projected financial
statements, (b) minutes of the proceedings of meetings of the Members and the Managing Member, and (c) a current list of the Officers and their residence addresses. Any of the foregoing books, minutes or records may be in written form or
in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. Any Member or any of their respective designated representatives, in person or by attorney or other agent, shall, upon written demand stating the purpose
thereof, have the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose any of the foregoing books, minutes or records; provided, that for purposes of this sentence, a proper purpose shall mean any purpose reasonably related to
such Person’s interest as a Member. In every instance where an attorney or other agent shall be the Person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the
attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the Member. The demand shall be directed to the Company at its registered office in the State of Delaware or at its principal place of business. 

  
 30 

 11.3 Reports. The Company shall endeavor to deliver or cause to be
delivered within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, to each Person that was a Member at any time during such Fiscal Year, all information necessary for the preparation of such Person’s United States federal and state
income tax returns. 
 11.4 Power of Attorney. Each Member hereby constitutes and appoints the Managing Member and the
liquidators, with full power of substitution, as his, her or its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in his, her or its name, place
and stead, to execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record in the appropriate public offices (a) this Agreement, all certificates and other instruments and all amendments thereof in accordance with the terms hereof that the Managing
Member deems appropriate or necessary to form, qualify, or continue the qualification of, the Company as a limited liability company in the State of Delaware and in all other jurisdictions in which the Company may conduct business or own property;
(b) all instruments that the Managing Member deems appropriate or necessary to reflect any amendment, change, modification or restatement of this Agreement in accordance with its terms; (c) all conveyances and other instruments or
documents that the Managing Member or the liquidators deem appropriate or necessary to reflect the dissolution and liquidation of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including a certificate of cancellation; and (d) all
instruments relating to the admission, withdrawal or substitution of any Member pursuant to Article III or Article IV. The foregoing power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall survive the death,
disability, incapacity, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any Member and the Transfer of all or any portion of his, her or its Units and shall extend to such Member’s heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives.

 11.5 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or waived by the Managing Member with the prior written
consent of all of the Members, except that the amendment of the Schedule of Members to reflect changes permitted by and in accordance with this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Member. 

11.6 Remedies. Each Unitholder shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and all rights and
remedies that such Person has been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights that such Person has under any applicable law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement or any other
agreements contemplated hereby shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security) to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by
applicable law. 
 11.7 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective Successors in Interest; provided that no Person claiming by, through or under a Member (whether as such Member’s Successor in Interest or otherwise),
as distinct from such Member itself, shall have any rights as, or in respect to, a Member (including the right to approve or vote on any matter or to notice thereof). 

11.8 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall 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 or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

  
 31 

 11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or
more separate counterparts, any one (1) of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on all the parties
hereto. 
 11.10 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
State of Delaware. 
 11.11 Addresses and Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or
delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given or made when (a) delivered personally to the recipient, (b) sent by email or facsimile to the recipient, or
(c) one Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid). Such notices, demands and other communications shall be sent to the address for such recipient set forth on the Schedule of
Members attached hereto, or in the Company’s books and records, or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party has specified by prior written notice to the sending party. Any notice to the Managing
Member or the Company shall be deemed given if received by the Managing Member at the principal office of the Company designated pursuant to Section 2.5. 

11.12 Creditors. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditors of
the Company or any of its Affiliates, and no creditor who makes a loan to the Company or any of its Affiliates may have or acquire (except pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement executed by the Company in favor of such creditor) at any time
as a result of making the loan any direct or indirect interest in Company profits, losses, Distributions, capital or property other than as a secured creditor. 

11.13 Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or
condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition. 

11.14 Further Action. The parties agree to execute and deliver all documents, provide all information and take or
refrain from taking such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to achieve the purposes of this Agreement. 
 11.15
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Contribution Agreement embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties
hereto, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. 
 11.16 Delivery by Facsimile or
Email. This Agreement, the agreements referred to herein, and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and
delivered by means of a facsimile machine or email with scan or facsimile attachment, 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. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and
deliver them to all 

  
 32 

 
other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or
instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense. 

11.17 Survival. Sections 5.4, 5.5, 6.3, 7.5, 8.4, 11.16, and 11.17
shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the dissolution of the Company.

individual items of Income and Loss) shall be allocated annually (and at such other times as the Managing Member determines) to the Unitholders in such manner that the Capital Account balance of each Unitholder shall, to the greatest extent
possible, be equal to the amount, positive or negative, that would be distributed to such Unitholder (in the case of a positive amount) or for which such Unitholder would be liable to the Company under this Agreement (in the case of a negative
amount), if (a) the Company were to sell the assets of the Company for their Gross Asset Values, (b) all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Values of the assets
securing such liability), (c) the Company were to distribute the proceeds of sale pursuant to Section 4.1 and Section 4.1 and (d) the Company were to dissolve pursuant to Article X, minus such Unitholder’s share
of Company Minimum Gain or Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. 
 5.2
Special Allocations. 
 (a) Loss attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated in the manner required by
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If there is a net decrease during a taxable year in Member Minimum Gain, Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) shall be allocated
to the Unitholders in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 5.2(a) is intended to be a “partner nonrecourse debt
minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

  
 17 

 (b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(a), if there is a net
decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Unitholder shall be allocated Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.2(b) is intended to be a “minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 
 (c)
If any Unitholder that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) has an
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any taxable year, computed after the application of Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(b) but before the application of any other provision of Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and
Section 5.3, then Income for such taxable year shall be allocated to such Unitholder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance as quickly as possible. This Section 5.2(c) is intended to be a “qualified
income offset” provision as described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

(d) Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the
Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable. Nonrecourse deductions (as defined in Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to the number of Units held by each
such Unitholder. 
 (e) No Member shall be allocated Net Loss in any Fiscal Year which would create or increase an Adjusted
Capital Account Deficit. Net Loss which would be allocated to a Member but for the preceding sentence shall be reallocated among the Members in the ratio of the number of Units then held by each but only to the extent that the Net Loss does not
cause any Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. 
 (f) Income and Loss described in clause (d) of the
definition of Gross Asset Value shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m). 
 (g) The allocations set forth in
Section 5.2(a) through Section 5.2(f) inclusive (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 of the Regulations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Unitholders intend to allocate Income and Loss of the Company or to make Distributions. Accordingly,
notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and Section 5.3, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, items of Income and Loss of the Company shall be allocated among the Unitholders so as to
eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations and thereby cause the respective Capital Account balances of the Unitholders to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if Income and Loss had been allocated without
reference to the Regulatory Allocations. In general, the Unitholders anticipate that this shall be accomplished by specially allocating other Income and Loss among the Unitholders so that the net amount of Regulatory Allocations and such special
allocations to each such Unitholder is zero. 

  
 18 

 5.3 Tax Allocations. 

(a) The income, gains, losses and deductions of the Company shall be allocated for federal, state and local income tax
purposes among the Unitholders in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses and deductions among the Unitholders for purposes of computing their Capital Accounts, and each tax credit shall be allocated to the Members in the same
manner as the receipt or expenditure giving rise to such credit is allocated pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 5.2; except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, then the Company’s
subsequent income, gains, losses and deductions for tax purposes shall be allocated among the Unitholders so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts. 

(b) Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the
Company shall be allocated among the Unitholders in accordance with Code Section 704(c) so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value
using the remedial allocation method described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(d). 
 (c) If the Gross Asset Value of
any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction
with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c). 

(d) Pursuant to Regulations Section 1.1245-1(e), to the extent the Company recognizes gain as a result of a sale,
exchange or other disposition of Company assets which is taxable as recapture income under Sections 1245 or 1250 of the Code or unrecaptured Section 1250 gain under Section 1(h) of the Code, such recapture income shall be allocated among
the Members in the same proportion as the depreciation and amortization giving rise to such recapture income was allocable among the Members. In no event, however, shall any Member be allocated recapture income hereunder in excess of the amount of
gain allocated to the Member under this Agreement. Any recapture income that is not allocated to a Member due to the gain limitation described in the previous sentence shall be allocated among those Members whose shares of total gain on the sale,
exchange or other disposition of the property exceed their share of depreciation and amortization attributable to Company assets, in proportion to their relative shares of the total allocable gain. 

(e) Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 are solely for the purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall
not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Unitholder’s Capital Account or share of Income, Loss, Distributions or other Company items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. 

5.4 Unitholders’ Tax Reporting. The Unitholders acknowledge and are aware of the income tax consequences of the
allocations made pursuant to this Article V and, except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article V in reporting their shares of Company
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal, state and local income tax purposes. 
 5.5 Indemnification and
Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Unitholder. If the Company is required by applicable law to make any payment to a Governmental Entity that is 

  
 19 

 
specifically attributable to a Unitholder or a Unitholder’s status as such (including federal withholding taxes, state or local personal property taxes and state or local unincorporated
business taxes), then such Unitholder shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including interest, penalties and related expenses). The Managing Member may offset Distributions to which a Person is otherwise entitled under
this Agreement against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 5.5. A Unitholder’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 5.5 shall survive termination, dissolution,
liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 5.5, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Unitholder under
this Section 5.5, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification, with interest calculated at a rate equal to 10 percentage points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by applicable law). 

5.6 Reimbursement of Operating Costs. The Managing Member will not be compensated for its services as the Managing
Member. The Company shall, and shall cause members of the Company Group to, reimburse the Managing Member, Operations and their respective Affiliates on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the Managing Member may determine, for all Operating
Costs they incur or pay on behalf of the Company Group. With respect to all Operating Costs that are not directly incurred by a member of the Company Group, the Managing Member shall determine the allocation of Operating Costs among the Company
Group, the Managing Member, Operations and their respective Affiliates based on the methodology generally used by the Managing Member and its Affiliates to allocate overhead costs and expenses to their Affiliates. 

ARTICLE VI 
 RIGHTS AND
DUTIES OF MEMBERS 
 6.1 Power and Authority of Members. Unless delegated such power in accordance with
Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, no Member (other than the Managing Member in its capacity as Managing Member) shall, in its capacity as such, have the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company in any manner, to do any
act that would be (or could be construed as) binding on the Company, or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Company, and the Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Managing Member of the powers and rights conferred on it by the Act and
by this Agreement. 
 6.2 Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.2, as specifically
set forth in this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law, Members holding Preferred Units and Common Units shall vote together as a single class, and a Member shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Preferred Unit and one
(1) vote for each Common Unit held by such Member in connection with all matters to be voted upon by the Members of the Company (without prejudice to any consent rights that the holders of such Units have expressly been granted under this
Agreement). 
 6.3 Liability of Unitholders. 

(a) No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
no Unitholder shall have any personal liability whatsoever in such Unitholder’s capacity as a Unitholder, whether to the Company, to any of the other Unitholders, to the creditors of the Company or to any other third Person for the debts,
obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise (including those arising as a Unitholder or an equityholder, an owner or a shareholder of another Person). Each Unitholder shall be liable only to make such
Unitholder’s Capital Contribution to the Company, if applicable, and the other payments provided for expressly herein. 

  
 20 

 (b) Return of Distributions. Under the Act, a Unitholder of a limited
liability company may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Unitholder. It is the intent of the Unitholders that no Distribution to any Unitholder pursuant to Article IV or Article X
shall be deemed to constitute money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act, and the Unitholders agree that each such Distribution shall constitute a compromise of the Unitholders within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, and the Unitholder receiving such Distribution shall not be required to return to any Person any such money or property, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. If,
however, any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Unitholder is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Unitholder and not of the other
Unitholders. 
 6.4 Meetings of Members. 

(a) Special Meetings. Special meetings of Members may be called for any purpose and may be held at such time and place,
within or without the State of Delaware, as shall be stated in a notice of meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof. Such meetings may be called at any time by any Member. 

(b) Notice. Whenever Members (or any class of Members) are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, written,
printed or electronic (whether by e-mail or facsimile) notice stating the place, date, time and the purpose or purposes, of such meeting, shall be given to each Member entitled to vote at such meeting not less than five (5) nor more than thirty
(30) calendar days before the date of the meeting. Attendance of a Person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the Person 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. 
 (c) Quorum. Members
holding 100% of each class or classes of Units entitled to vote, present in person, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Members, and Members holding 100% of the Units of any class, present in person, shall constitute a quorum at all
meetings of such class. 
 (d) Vote Required. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of all of the Members
present in person at a duly called meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Members. Where a separate vote by class of Units is required, the affirmative vote of the Members holding 100% of the interests of such
class present in person at the meeting of such class shall be the act of such class. 
 (e) Action by Written
Consent. Any action required to be taken at any special meeting of Members, or at any meeting of any class of Members, or any action that may be taken at any special meeting of such Members or class of Members, may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken and bearing the dates of signature of the Members who signed the consent or consents, shall be signed by all of the Members and shall be
delivered to the Company by delivery to the Company’s principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book or books in which proceedings of meetings of the Members are recorded. Any action taken pursuant
to such written consent or consents of the Members or any class of Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting of the Members or the Members of such class. 

  
 21 

 (f) Record Dates. For purposes of determining the Members entitled to
notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members or any class of Members or to give written consent without a meeting, the Managing Member may set a record date, which shall not be less than two (2) nor more than sixty (60) calendar days
before (i) the date of the meeting or (ii) in the event that approvals are sought without a meeting, the date by which Members are requested in writing by the Managing Member to give such approvals. 

(g) Telephonic Participation. Members may participate in and act at any meeting of Members through the use of a
conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in such meeting pursuant to this Section 6.4(g) shall constitute presence in person
at such meeting. 
 6.5 Approval Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and the
Managing Member shall not, and shall take all action possible to ensure that each Subsidiary of the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of all of the Members (which consent may be withheld in each Member’s sole discretion):

 (a) amend the Company’s certificate of formation or this Agreement, or the formation or governing documents of any
of the Company’s Subsidiaries; 
 (b) redeem, acquire or otherwise purchase any Unit or other Equity Security of the
Company; 
 (c) commence a Bankruptcy with respect to, or wind-up or dissolve the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; 

(d) change or extend the nature or scope of the Company’s business; 

(e) make or amend any material tax election; 

(f) enter into, amend or modify any transaction with Affiliate(s); 

(g) allow to occur a Company Sale, merge or consolidate with or into another Person, or enter into any other business
combination (except, in the case of any Subsidiary of the Company, with another Subsidiary of the Company); 
 (h) enter
into, amend or modify any material joint ventures or farmout agreements, except as contemplated by the Budget; 
 (i)
acquire, for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, assets in excess of $25,000,000 in any single transaction or series of related transactions, except as contemplated by the Budget; 

(j) make any investments in any Person in excess of $25,000,000, except as contemplated by the Budget; 

  
 22 

 (k) dispose of assets of the Company Group in excess of $25,000,000 in any
single transaction or series of related transactions, except as contemplated by the Budget; 
 (l) authorize or issue any
Equity Security; 
 (m) incur any Indebtedness or issue any debt security (other than pursuant to the Budget); 

(n) approve, amend or, in any material respect, deviate from the Budget (including with respect to operating expenditures,
capital expenditures or commodity hedging); 
 (o) other than Distributions under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2,
authorize, declare or pay any Distribution; 
 (p) change the independent auditors of the Company and its Subsidiaries; or

 (q) agree to do any of the foregoing. 

ARTICLE VII 
 MANAGEMENT
OF THE COMPANY 
 7.1 Managing Member. All power and authority to manage and control the business and affairs of
the Company shall be exclusively vested in the Managing Member, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. The Managing Member shall have the full power and authority on behalf and in the name of the Company to carry out any and all
of the objectives and purposes of the Company contemplated by Section 2.4 and to perform all acts that the Managing Member may deem necessary, advisable or incidental thereto in connection therewith. 

7.2 Officers. The Company shall have such individuals as officers (“Officers”) as may be appointed by
the Managing Member. The Officers of the Company may consist of Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, one or more Executive Vice Presidents, one or more Vice Presidents, one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, a Secretary, one
or more Assistant Secretaries, or such other Officers as may be appointed by the Managing Member. One person may hold, and perform the duties of, any two or more of such offices. Compensation of Officers shall be fixed by the Managing Member from
time to time. Any Officer may be removed, with or without cause, at any time by the Managing Member. In its sole discretion, the Managing Member may choose not to fill any office for any period as it may deem advisable. No Officer need be a Member.
Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Managing Member shall determine the scope of authority of any Officer in its sole discretion, provided that unless the Managing Member decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used
for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the assignment of such title will constitute the delegation of the authority and duties that are normally associated with that office, subject to any specific
delegation of authority and duties made by the Managing Member from time to time. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 7.2 may be revoked at any time and for any reason or no reason by the Managing Member. The individuals serving as
Officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Date shall remain in such capacity as the Officers of the Company as of the Effective Date. 

7.3 Further Delegation of Authority. The Managing Member may, from time to time, delegate to any Person (including any
Member or Officer) such authority and powers to act 

  
 23 

 
on behalf of the Company as it shall deem advisable in its sole discretion. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 7.3 may be revoked at any time and for any reason or no reason by
the Managing Member. 
 7.4 Performance of Duties; Liability of Managing Member and Officers. 

(a) In performing its duties, each of the Managing Member and the Officers shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the
provisions of this Agreement and on information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Company
and its Subsidiaries or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Unitholders might properly be paid), of the following other Persons or groups: (a) one or more Officers or employees of the Company or
any of its Affiliates, (b) any attorney, independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (c) any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, in each case, as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely
on information to the extent provided in Section 18-406 of the Act. No individual who is an Officer shall be personally liable under any judgment of a court, or in any other manner, for any debt,
obligation or liability of the Company, whether that liability or obligation arises in contract, tort or otherwise solely by reason of being an Officer. 

(b) This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any Indemnitee. Furthermore, each
of the Members and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by Applicable Law, and in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligation of each Indemnitee to each other and to the
Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnitee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace
such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnitee. Whenever in this Agreement an Indemnitee is permitted or required to make a decision (including a decision that is in such Indemnitee’s “discretion” or under a grant of similar
authority or latitude), the Indemnitee shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as such Indemnitee desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or
factors affecting the Company or any other Person. Whenever in this Agreement an Indemnitee is permitted or required to make a decision in such Indemnitee’s “good faith,” the Indemnitee shall act under such express standard and shall
not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or any other Applicable Law. 
 7.5
Indemnification. 
 (a) To the fullest extent permitted by law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in
this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, costs, damages, liabilities, joint and several, expenses of any nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all threatened, pending or completed claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
and whether formal or informal and including appeals, in which an Indemnitee may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of his, her or its status as an Indemnitee, regardless of whether an

  
 24 

 
Indemnitee continues to be an Indemnitee at the time any such liability or expense is paid or incurred, unless it is determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction that such Indemnitee, with respect to the matter for which the Indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding,
that such Indemnitee had knowledge that his, her or its conduct was unlawful. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law,
expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding subject to Section 7.5(a) shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final and
non-appealable disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to
be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to advance any expenses to the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7.5 if the Managing Member reasonably determines in
good faith, within 30 days of the Indemnitee’s request to be advanced expenses pursuant to this Section 7.5, that the facts known to them at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that the Indemnitee
acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his, her or its conduct was unlawful. 

(c) The indemnification provided by this Section 7.5 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee
may be entitled pursuant to any approval of the Managing Member, as a matter of law or equity, under this Agreement, any other agreement, or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure
to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, and administrators of such Indemnitee. The Company shall not be required to indemnify any Member in connection with any losses, claims, demands, actions, disputes, suits or proceedings, of any Member
against any other Member. 
 (d) The Company may purchase and maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance or
similar coverage for its Managing Member, Officers or such other Persons as the Managing Member shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by, such Person in connection with the
Company’s activities or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Company, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement, in such amounts and
with such deductibles or self-insured retentions as determined in the sole discretion of the Managing Member. 
 (e) Any
indemnification hereunder shall be satisfied only out of the assets of the Company, and the Members shall not be personally liable for indemnification under this Section 7.5 and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or
property to the Company to enable it to effectuate such indemnification. 
 (f) An Indemnitee shall not be denied
indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.5 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

  
 25 

 (g) Subject to Section 7.5(c), the provisions of this Section 7.5
are for the benefit of the Indemnitees and the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitees and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. 

(h) No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.5 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate,
reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company, nor the obligations of the Company to indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.5 as in
effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise
or be asserted. 
 7.6 Approved Budget. The Managing Member shall prepare a proposed operating budget and a proposed
capital budget for the Company (collectively, the “Budget”) for each calendar year and shall submit such proposed operating budget to the other Members for the forthcoming budget period, not later than fifteen (15) days prior
to the end of each calendar year. No Budget shall become effective without the prior approval of all of the Members. 
 ARTICLE VIII

 TAX MATTERS 

8.1 Tax Status. The Unitholders intend that the Company shall be treated as a partnership for federal and, if
applicable, state or local income tax purposes, and each Unitholder and the Company shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. 

8.2 Preparation of Tax Returns. The Tax Matters Member shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all
returns required to be filed by the Company. Each Member will upon request supply to the Tax Matters Member all pertinent information in its possession relating to the operations of the Company necessary to enable the Company’s returns to be
prepared and filed. 
 8.3 Tax Elections. The taxable year shall be the Fiscal Year unless the Managing Member shall
determine otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. The Company shall make the election described in Code Section 754 with respect to the first taxable year of the Company. Subject to the approval rights set forth in Section 6.5, the
Tax Matters Member shall determine whether to make or revoke any other available election pursuant to the Code. Each Member will upon request supply any information necessary to give proper effect to such election. 

8.4 Tax Controversies. The Managing Member is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Member and is authorized and required
to represent the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional
services reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Each Member agrees to cooperate reasonably with the Company and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Company with respect to the conduct of such proceedings.
The Tax Matters Members shall keep the Members reasonably informed of the progress of any examinations, audits or other proceedings, and shall provide the Members with information on a full and timely basis. 

  
 26 

 8.5 Tax Allocations. All matters concerning allocations for United States
federal, state, and local and non-United States income tax purposes, including accounting procedures, not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined in good faith by the Tax
Matters Member. 
 8.6 Fiscal Year; Taxable Year. Each of the Fiscal Year and the taxable year of the Company shall
end on December 31 of each calendar year; provided that the taxable year of the Company shall end on a different date if necessary to comply with Section 706 of the Code. 

ARTICLE IX 
 TRANSFER OF
UNITS; SUBSTITUTE MEMBERS 
 9.1 Restrictions on Transfers. Except for the restrictions on Transfer applicable to
Operations under Article V of the Omnibus Agreement and as set forth in this Article IX, the Units are freely transferable. 

9.2 Void Transfers. To the greatest extent permitted by the Act and other applicable law, any Transfer by any Member of
any Units or other interest in the Company in contravention of this Agreement shall be void and ineffective and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other Person. In the event of any Transfer in contravention of this Agreement, the
purported Transferee shall have no right to any profits, losses or Distributions of the Company or any other rights of a Member. 

9.3 Substituted Member. Each Person to whom any Unit is Transferred in accordance with the provisions of this Article
IX shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a holder of such Units. Upon such agreement, such Person shall become a Substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member with respect to such Unit, and the
Schedule of Members attached hereto shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units of such Substituted Member and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating to the Transferee with regard to the Transferred
Units. 
 9.4 Effect of Transfer. Following a Transfer of any Unit that is permitted under this Article IX, the
Transferee of such Unit shall be treated as having made all of the Capital Contributions in respect of, and received all of the Distributions received in respect of, such Unit, and shall receive allocations and Distributions under Article IV
and Article X in respect of such Unit as if such Transferee were a Member. 
 9.5 Additional Transfer
Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, no Transfer of Units or any other interest in the Company may be made unless in the opinion of counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), satisfactory in form and
substance to the Managing Member and counsel for the Company (which opinion requirement may be waived, in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of the Managing Member), such Transfer would not (a) violate any federal securities laws or any
state securities or “blue sky” laws (including any investor suitability standards) applicable to the Company or the interest to be Transferred, (b) cause the Company to be required to register as an “investment company”
under the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, or (c) cause the Company to have more than 100 partners (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h), including the look-through rule in Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)). 

9.6 Effective Date. Any Transfer and any related admission of a Person as a Member in compliance with this
Article IX shall be deemed effective on such date that the Transferee or successor in interest complies with the requirements of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE X 

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION 

10.1 Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Additional Members or Substituted Members.
Subject to Section 6.5, the Company shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up upon the first of the following to occur: 

(a) the vote or consent of all of the Members to dissolve the Company; or 

(b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under
Section 18-802 of the Act. 
 Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.1,
the Company is intended to have perpetual existence. An Event of Withdrawal shall not cause a dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

10.2 Liquidation and Termination. 

(a) On the dissolution of the Company, the Managing Member shall act as liquidator or (in its sole discretion) may appoint one
(1) or more representatives, Members or other Persons as liquidator(s). The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation
shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company with all of the power and authority of the Managing Member. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows: 

(i) the liquidators shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the
Company (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the
liquidators may reasonably determine); and 
 (ii) after payment or provision for payment of all of the Company’s
liabilities has been made in accordance with Section 10.2(a)(i), all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 and Section 4.2, after giving effect to all prior Distributions,
and a final allocation of all items of income, gain, loss and expense shall be made in such a manner that, immediately before distribution of such remaining assets, the balance of each Unitholder’s Capital Account shall be equal to the
respective net amounts, positive or negative, that would be distributed to such Unitholder or for which such Unitholder would be liable to the Company as provided herein and in the Act. 

  
 28 

 10.3 Complete Distribution. The distribution to a Unitholder in accordance
with the provisions of Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to the Unitholder of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Unitholder of its interest in the Company and all the Company’s property and constitutes
a compromise to which all Unitholders have consented within the meaning of the Act. 
 10.4 Cancellation of
Certificate. On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Company is terminated (and the Company shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the Managing Member (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may
require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take such other actions as may be necessary
to terminate the Company. The Company shall be deemed to continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 10.4. 

10.5 Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and
affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 10.2 to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up. 

10.6 Return of Capital. The liquidators shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any
portion thereof to the Unitholders (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets). 

10.7 HSR Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of l976 (the “HSR Act”) is applicable to any Unitholder by reason of the fact that any assets of the Company
shall be distributed to such Unitholder in connection with the dissolution of the Company, the dissolution of the Company shall not be consummated until such time as the applicable waiting periods (and extensions thereof) under the HSR Act have
expired or otherwise been terminated with respect to each such Unitholder. 
 ARTICLE XI 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

11.1 Preemptive Rights. 

(a) Subject to Section 6.5(l), the Company shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or
reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, any Equity Securities or debt securities of the Company (collectively, the “Preemptive Securities”) unless the Company shall have first offered to sell to each Member holding
Preferred Units and Common Units (each a “Preemptive Holder”) such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities, at a price and on such other terms as shall have been specified by the Company in writing
delivered to each such Preemptive Holder (the “Preemptive Offer”), which Preemptive Offer shall by its terms remain open and irrevocable for a period of at least ten (10) calendar days from the date it is delivered by the
Company (the “Preemptive Offer Period”). Each Preemptive Holder may elect to purchase all or any portion of such Preemptive Holder’s Preemptive Share of the Preemptive Securities as specified in the Preemptive Offer at the
price and upon the terms specified therein by delivering written notice of such election to the Company as soon as practical but in any event within the Preemptive Offer Period; provided that if the Company is issuing Equity Securities
together as a unit with any debt securities or other Equity Securities, then any Preemptive Holder who elects to purchase the Preemptive Securities pursuant to this Section 11.1 must purchase the same proportionate mix of all of such
securities. 

  
 29 

 (b) Each Preemptive Holder’s “Preemptive Share” of
Preemptive Securities shall be a number of such Preemptive Securities multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Preferred Units and Common Units held by such Preemptive Holder and the denominator of which is the number of
Preferred Units and Common Units outstanding prior to the issuance of the Preemptive Securities. 
 (c) Upon the expiration
of the Preemptive Offer Period, the Company shall be entitled to sell such Preemptive Securities which the Preemptive Holders have not elected to purchase during the 120-calendar days following such expiration
on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Preemptive Holders. Any Preemptive Securities to be sold by the Company after such 120-calendar day
period must be reoffered to the Preemptive Holders pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.1. 
 (d) The provisions
of this Section 11.1 shall not apply to the following issuances of Equity Securities: 
 (i) securities issued in
connection with acquisitions or commercial borrowings or leasing; 
 (ii) securities issued upon conversion of convertible
or exchangeable securities of the Company that are outstanding on the Effective Date or were not issued in violation of this Section 11.1; and 

(iii) a subdivision of Units (including any Unit dividend or Unit split), any combination of Units (including any reverse Unit
split) or any recapitalization, reorganization or reclassification of the Company. 
 (e) The preemptive rights granted in
this Section 11.1 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Company Sale. 
 11.2 Books and Records. The
Company shall keep (a) correct and complete books and records of account, including annual audited financial statements and unaudited monthly and quarterly financial statements, and annual business plans showing quarterly projected financial
statements, (b) minutes of the proceedings of meetings of the Members and the Managing Member, and (c) a current list of the Officers and their residence addresses. Any of the foregoing books, minutes or records may be in written form or
in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. Any Member or any of their respective designated representatives, in person or by attorney or other agent, shall, upon written demand stating the purpose
thereof, have the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose any of the foregoing books, minutes or records; provided, that for purposes of this sentence, a proper purpose shall mean any purpose reasonably related to
such Person’s interest as a Member. In every instance where an attorney or other agent shall be the Person who seeks the right to inspection, the demand shall be accompanied by a power of attorney or such other writing that authorizes the
attorney or other agent to so act on behalf of the Member. The demand shall be directed to the Company at its registered office in the State of Delaware or at its principal place of business. 

  
 30 

 11.3 Reports. The Company shall endeavor to deliver or cause to be
delivered within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, to each Person that was a Member at any time during such Fiscal Year, all information necessary for the preparation of such Person’s United States federal and state
income tax returns. 
 11.4 Power of Attorney. Each Member hereby constitutes and appoints the Managing Member and the
liquidators, with full power of substitution, as his, her or its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in his, her or its name, place
and stead, to execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record in the appropriate public offices (a) this Agreement, all certificates and other instruments and all amendments thereof in accordance with the terms hereof that the Managing
Member deems appropriate or necessary to form, qualify, or continue the qualification of, the Company as a limited liability company in the State of Delaware and in all other jurisdictions in which the Company may conduct business or own property;
(b) all instruments that the Managing Member deems appropriate or necessary to reflect any amendment, change, modification or restatement of this Agreement in accordance with its terms; (c) all conveyances and other instruments or
documents that the Managing Member or the liquidators deem appropriate or necessary to reflect the dissolution and liquidation of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including a certificate of cancellation; and (d) all
instruments relating to the admission, withdrawal or substitution of any Member pursuant to Article III or Article IV. The foregoing power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and shall survive the death,
disability, incapacity, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any Member and the Transfer of all or any portion of his, her or its Units and shall extend to such Member’s heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives.

 11.5 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or waived by the Managing Member with the prior written
consent of all of the Members, except that the amendment of the Schedule of Members to reflect changes permitted by and in accordance with this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Member. 

11.6 Remedies. Each Unitholder shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and all rights and
remedies that such Person has been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights that such Person has under any applicable law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement or any other
agreements contemplated hereby shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security) to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by
applicable law. 
 11.7 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective Successors in Interest; provided that no Person claiming by, through or under a Member (whether as such Member’s Successor in Interest or otherwise),
as distinct from such Member itself, shall have any rights as, or in respect to, a Member (including the right to approve or vote on any matter or to notice thereof). 

11.8 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall 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 or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

  
 31 

 11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or
more separate counterparts, any one (1) of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on all the parties
hereto. 
 11.10 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
State of Delaware. 
 11.11 Addresses and Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or
delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given or made when (a) delivered personally to the recipient, (b) sent by email or facsimile to the recipient, or
(c) one Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid). Such notices, demands and other communications shall be sent to the address for such recipient set forth on the Schedule of
Members attached hereto, or in the Company’s books and records, or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party has specified by prior written notice to the sending party. Any notice to the Managing
Member or the Company shall be deemed given if received by the Managing Member at the principal office of the Company designated pursuant to Section 2.5. 

11.12 Creditors. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any creditors of
the Company or any of its Affiliates, and no creditor who makes a loan to the Company or any of its Affiliates may have or acquire (except pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement executed by the Company in favor of such creditor) at any time
as a result of making the loan any direct or indirect interest in Company profits, losses, Distributions, capital or property other than as a secured creditor. 

11.13 Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or
condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition. 

11.14 Further Action. The parties agree to execute and deliver all documents, provide all information and take or
refrain from taking such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to achieve the purposes of this Agreement. 
 11.15
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Contribution Agreement embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties
hereto, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. 
 11.16 Delivery by Facsimile or
Email. This Agreement, the agreements referred to herein, and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and
delivered by means of a facsimile machine or email with scan or facsimile attachment, 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. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and
deliver them to all 

  
 32 

 
other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or
instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense. 

11.17 Survival. Sections 5.4, 5.5, 6.3, 7.5, 8.4, 11.16, and 11.17
shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the dissolution of the Company.
