ARTICLE III 
MISCELLANEOUS 
3.1 Indemnification. 
(a) The TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships shall, on a joint and several basis, subject to the terms of this Section 3.1, indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any claim, action, loss, liability, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), damage, Tax, judgment, fine and penalty (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by such Covered Person as a result of any third party action, claim, audit, suit or proceeding against such Covered Person or any Covered Partnership that is attributable to the Reorganization (a “Covered Claim”). 
(b) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Covered Person in appearing at, participating in or defending any Covered Claim shall be paid by one or more of the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships in advance of the final disposition of such Covered Claim within 10 days after receipt by such TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships of a statement or statements from such Covered Person requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Covered Claim. Each Covered Person hereby undertakes to repay any amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable decision that such Covered Person is not entitled under this Agreement to be indemnified by the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships in respect thereof. Such undertaking shall be unsecured and accepted without reference to the financial ability of a Covered Person to make repayment and without regard to a Covered Person’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. 
(c) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(a), (i) Losses shall exclude all Taxes other than Applicable Taxes attributable to the recognition of Covered Income, (ii) Losses shall include any reduction in the TRA Payments (for the avoidance of doubt, including any “iterative” payments under the TRA) made to a Covered Person as a result of the recognition of Covered Income, and (iii) if a Covered Person is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement for any Applicable Taxes, the form and amount of indemnification shall be structured in a manner designed (as mutually agreed between TPG Holdings II and TPG GP A LLC) so that such Covered Person has borne out of its own funds and without reimbursement (other than by virtue of owning a direct or indirect interest in a TPG Holdings I-III Partnership) at the end of any taxable year of such Covered Person the amount of Applicable Taxes that such Covered Person would have borne if there had been no Covered Income, taking into account any offsetting tax benefits received by the Covered Person as a result of the recognition of Covered Income and the timing of such Applicable Taxes but without taking into account any difference in tax rates arising from a change in character of any underlying income, gain, loss or deduction. For purposes of this Section 3.1(c) and the definition of “Covered Income,” “recognize” and “recognition” shall include disallowance of losses or deductions, the recharacterization or change in timing of recognition of any tax items and any adjustments by a taxing authority. 

9

 
(d) The TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships shall have no obligation to indemnify any Covered Person under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit or proceeding without their prior written consent. The TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships shall not settle any action, suit or proceeding in any manner that would impose any fine or other obligation on a Covered Person without such Covered Person’s prior written consent. Neither The TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships nor any Covered Person will unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its, his, or her consent to any proposed settlement. 
(e) The provisions for indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of, a substitute for or in abrogation of any other rights which a Covered Person may have under any provision of law, in any court in which a proceeding is brought, the certificate of incorporation, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, or comparable organizational documents of the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships, other agreements or otherwise, and a Covered Person’s rights hereunder shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such Covered Person. No amendment or alteration of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws, certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement, or comparable organizational documents of the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships or any other agreement shall adversely affect the rights provided to a Covered Person under this Agreement. 
(f) The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 
3.2 In the event that any of the transactions described in Section 2.8 through 2.11 occur, the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships shall, on a joint and several basis, subject to the terms of this Section 3.2, indemnify and hold harmless each Manager Owner for any Manager Losses; provided that, if a Manager Owner is entitled to be indemnified by TPG Global, LLC or one of its affiliates (collectively, “TPG Global”) pursuant to any arrangement or agreement existing as of the date of the TPG Holdings II Sub Contribution or entered into then or thereafter for any Manager Losses specified in clause (x) of the definition thereof (or recovers directly for such Manager Losses under an insurance policy), it is intended that (i) TPG Global and such insurer will be the full indemnitor (or insurer) of first resort and the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships will be the full indemnitors of second resort for any such Manager Losses and (ii) any amount that the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships are otherwise obligated to pay with respect to indemnification or advancement for such Manager Losses will be reduced by the amount such Manager Owner receives in respect of such indemnification, advancement or insurance from TPG Global and/or its insurer. The rights and obligations applicable to Covered Persons and the TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships under Section 3.1 shall apply to the Manager Owner and TPG Holdings I-III Partnerships, mutatis mutandis. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitation in Section 3.1(c) shall not apply to Manager Losses.

(b) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any dispute regarding the validity or termination of this Agreement, or the performance or breach hereof, shall be finally settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of the arbitration.

Each arbitrator shall be a person with significant experience in the financial services industry or representing persons in the financial services industry.

In the event that any of the parties to the arbitration fail to nominate an arbitrator as and within such time period provided in the preceding sentence, upon request of either of such parties, such arbitrator shall instead be appointed by the AAA within 15 days of receiving such request. The two arbitrators appointed in accordance with the above provisions shall nominate the third arbitrator within 15 days of their appointment.

The third arbitrator shall serve as Chairman of the arbitral tribunal. The arbitrators shall endeavor to render a final award within 90 days of submission of a request for arbitration. Failure to adhere to this time limit shall not be a basis for challenging the award. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the parties thereto and judgment on such award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. All costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with any arbitration hereunder shall be borne by the Party against whom the arbitrators’ award is rendered, and such Party shall promptly reimburse the Party in whose favor the arbitrators’ award is rendered for any of such costs and expenses incurred by such Party. 
(c) By agreeing to arbitration, the Parties do not intend to deprive any court with jurisdiction of its ability to issue a preliminary injunction, attachment or other form of provisional remedy in aid of the arbitration, and a request for such provisional remedies by a Party to a court shall not be deemed a waiver of this agreement to arbitrate. In addition to the authority conferred upon the arbitrators by the rules specified above, the arbitrators shall also have the authority to grant provisional remedies, including injunctive relief. 

12

 
(d) Except as may be required by applicable Law or court order, the Parties agree to maintain confidentiality as to all aspects of any arbitration arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including any such arbitration’s existence and results, except that nothing herein shall prevent a Party from disclosing information regarding such arbitration for purposes of enforcing the award or this arbitration clause, or in any court proceeding requesting the issuance of provisional remedies in accordance with Section 3.10(c). The Parties further agree to obtain the arbitrators’ agreement to preserve the confidentiality of the arbitration.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE 2 
DETERMINATION OF CERTAIN REALIZED TAX BENEFIT 
Section 2.01. Basis Schedule. Within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the due date (including extensions) of IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) of the Corporate Taxpayer for each relevant Taxable Year, the Corporate Taxpayer shall deliver to the TRA Party Representative a schedule (the “Basis Schedule”) that shows, in reasonable detail necessary to perform the calculations required by this Agreement, (i) the Basis Adjustment with respect to the Reference Assets in respect of each TRA Party as a result of the Exchanges effected in such Taxable Year or any prior Taxable Year by such TRA Party, if any, calculated in the aggregate, (ii) the Non-Stepped Up Tax Basis of the Reference Assets in respect of each TRA Party as of each applicable Exchange Date, if any, and (iii) the period (or periods) over which each Basis Adjustment in respect of each TRA Party is amortizable and/or depreciable. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the provision and preparation of the Basis Schedules and Tax Benefit Schedules for the TRA Party Representative in compliance with this Agreement shall be borne by the Partnerships. 
Section 2.02. Tax Benefit Schedule. (a) Tax Benefit Schedule. Within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the due date (including extensions) of IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) of the Corporate Taxpayer for any Taxable Year in which there is a Realized Tax Benefit or a Realized Tax Detriment Attributable to a TRA 

12

Party, the Corporate Taxpayer shall provide to the TRA Party Representative a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit and Tax Benefit Payment or the Realized Tax Detriment, as applicable, in respect of such TRA Party for such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”). Each Tax Benefit Schedule will become final as provided in Section 2.03(a) and may be amended as provided in Section 2.03(b) (subject to the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(b)). 
(b) Applicable Principles. (i) General. Subject to Section 3.03, the Realized Tax Benefit (or the Realized Tax Detriment) for each Taxable Year is intended to measure the decrease (or increase) in the actual liability for Taxes of the Corporate Taxpayer for such Taxable Year attributable to the Tax Attributes, determined using a “with and without” methodology. Carryovers or carrybacks of any Tax item attributable to any of the Tax Attributes shall be considered to be subject to the rules of the Code and the Treasury Regulations or the appropriate provisions of U.S. state and local income and franchise Tax law, as applicable, governing the use, limitation and expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. If a carryover or carryback of any Tax item includes a portion that is attributable to any Tax Attribute and another portion that is not, such portions shall be considered to be used in accordance with the “with and without” methodology. The parties agree that (A) all Tax Benefit Payments (other than Imputed Interest thereon) attributable to the Basis Adjustments will be treated as subsequent upward purchase price adjustments with respect to the Common Units exchanged in the applicable Exchange that have the effect of creating additional Basis Adjustments to Reference Assets for the Corporate Taxpayer in the year of payment, (B) as a result, any additional Basis Adjustments will be incorporated into the calculation beginning in the year of payment and into future year calculations, as appropriate, and (C) the Actual Tax Liability will take into account the deduction of the portion of the Tax Benefit Payment that must be accounted for as Imputed Interest. 
(ii) Applicable Principles of Section 734(b) Exchanges. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, the foregoing treatment set out in Section 2.02(b) (i) shall not be required to apply to payments hereunder to an Exchanging Holder in respect of a Section 734(b) Exchange by such Exchanging Holder. Payments made under this Agreement relating to a Section 734(b) Exchange shall not be treated as resulting in a Basis Adjustment to the extent such payments are treated as Imputed Interest. The parties intend that an Exchanging Holder that has made a Section 734(b) Exchange shall, with respect to the Basis Adjustment resulting from such Section 734(b) Exchange or any payments hereunder in respect of such Section 734(b) Exchange, be entitled to Tax Benefit Payments attributable to such Basis Adjustments (A) to the extent such Basis Adjustments are allocable to the Corporate Taxpayer following such Section 734(b) Exchange (without taking into account any concurrent or subsequent Exchanges) and (B) to the extent there is an increased portion of Basis Adjustments resulting from such Section 734(b) Exchange or any payments hereunder in respect of such Section 734(b) Exchange that becomes allocable to the Corporate Taxpayer as a result of subsequent Exchanges. 

13

 
(iii) Adjustments under Section 743(b). Any adjustments to tax basis occurring pursuant to section 743(b) shall also refer to any new section 743(b) adjustments with respect to the same Common Units that occur in tax-deferred transactions. 
Section 2.03. Procedures, Amendments. (a) Procedure. Every time the Corporate Taxpayer delivers to the TRA Party Representative an applicable Schedule under this Agreement, including any Amended Schedule, the Corporate Taxpayer shall also (x) deliver to the TRA Party Representative supporting schedules and work papers, as determined by the Corporate Taxpayer or as reasonably requested by the TRA Party Representative, providing reasonable detail regarding data and calculations that were relevant for purposes of preparing such Schedule and (y) allow the TRA Party Representative reasonable access at no cost to the appropriate representatives at the Corporate Taxpayer, as determined by the Corporate Taxpayer or as reasonably requested by the TRA Party Representative, in connection with a review of such Schedule. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Corporate Taxpayer shall ensure that any Tax Benefit Schedule that is delivered to the TRA Party Representative, along with any supporting schedules and work papers, provides a reasonably detailed presentation of the calculation of the Actual Tax Liability and the Hypothetical Tax Liability and identifies any material assumptions or operating procedures or principles that were used for purposes of such calculations. An applicable Schedule or amendment thereto shall become final and binding on all parties thirty (30) calendar days from the date on which the TRA Party Representative is treated as having received the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto under Section 7.01 unless the TRA Party Representative (i) within thirty (30) calendar days from such date provides the Corporate Taxpayer with written notice of a material objection to such Schedule (“Objection Notice”) made in good faith or (ii) provides a written waiver of such right of any Objection Notice within the period described in clause Section 2.03 above, in which case such Schedule or amendment thereto becomes binding on the date the waiver is received by the Corporate Taxpayer. If the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in the Objection Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Corporate Taxpayer of an Objection Notice, the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative shall employ the reconciliation procedures as described in Section 7.09 of this Agreement (the “Reconciliation Procedures”). The TRA Party Representative will fairly represent the interests of each of the TRA Parties and shall use reasonable efforts to timely raise and pursue, in accordance with this Section 2.03(a), any reasonable objection to a Schedule or amendment thereto timely communicated in writing to the TRA Party Representative by a TRA Party. 
(b) Amended Schedule. The applicable Schedule for any Taxable Year may be amended from time to time by the Corporate Taxpayer (i) in connection with a Determination affecting such Schedule, (ii) to correct inaccuracies in the Schedule identified as a result of the receipt of additional factual information relating to a Taxable Year after the date the Schedule was provided to the TRA Party Representative, (iii) to comply with an Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation Procedures, (iv) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit, or the Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to a carryback or carryforward of a loss or other Tax item to 

14

such Taxable Year, (v) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or the Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable Year or (vi) to adjust a Basis Schedule to take into account payments made pursuant to this Agreement (any such Schedule, an “Amended Schedule”). The Corporate Taxpayer shall provide an Amended Schedule to the TRA Party Representative when the Corporate Taxpayer delivers the Basis Schedule for the following taxable year. 
(c) Section 754 Elections. Unless the TRA Party Representative agrees in writing otherwise, the Corporate Taxpayer shall cause an election under Section 754 of the Code to be in effect for each taxable year that includes or ends after the IPO Date by (i) each Partnership, (ii) TPG Holdings II Sub, L.P., (iii) any Subsidiary of the Partnerships that (A) is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (B) is treated as a successor to (or continuation of) any entity described in clause (i) or (ii) or this clause (iii), (iv) any Subsidiary that is the general partner (or an entity serving a similar function) for an investment fund or other similar investment vehicle if (A) such Subsidiary is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and (B) the Partnerships own more than 50% of the economic interests in such Subsidiary, and (v) any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income Tax purposes through which any Corporate Taxpayer holds an interest in an entity described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv). With respect to any other direct or indirect Subsidiary of a Corporate Taxpayer, the Corporate Taxpayer has sole discretion with respect to any election under Section 754 of the Code. 
ARTICLE 3 
TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS 
Section 3.01. Payments. (a) Within ten (10) calendar days after a Tax Benefit Schedule delivered to the TRA Party Representative becomes final in accordance with Section 2.03(a) and Section 7.09, if applicable, the Applicable Buyer shall pay each of the relevant TRA Parties for such Taxable Year the Tax Benefit Payment determined pursuant to Section 3.01(b) that is Attributable to such relevant TRA Party. A separate Tax Benefit Payment shall be calculated and paid with respect to each Exchange effected by an Exchanging Holder except that the Corporate Taxpayer may elect to aggregate one or more Exchanges in a reasonable manner if such Exchanges occur in a reasonably close timeframe (as determined by the Corporate Taxpayer) and payments shall be computed separately for each TRA Party. Each such Tax Benefit Payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account previously designated in writing by such TRA Party to the Applicable Buyer or as otherwise agreed by the Applicable Buyer and such TRA Party. No Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of estimated Tax payments, including, U.S. federal estimated income Tax payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, unless a TRA Party notifies the Applicable Buyer otherwise, the stated maximum selling price with respect to any Exchange by such TRA Party shall not exceed 100% of the amount of the initial consideration received in such Exchange (which, shall include the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any Class A Shares received in such Exchange but shall exclude the fair market value of any Tax Benefit Payments with respect to such Exchange 

15

together with any liabilities treated as assumed under Section 752(d)) and the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments to such TRA Party in respect of such Exchange (other than amounts accounted for as interest under the Code) shall not exceed such stated maximum selling price. The “Applicable Buyer” shall mean, in the case of any Exchange and Exchanging Holder, (i) if the relevant acquisition is described in clause (i) of the definition of Exchange, Buyer (or, if PubCorp or another wholly-owned Subsidiary is treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the purchaser in such acquisition, PubCorp or such Subsidiary (as the case may be)) and (ii) in any other case, Buyer. 
(b) A “Tax Benefit Payment” in respect of a TRA Party for a Taxable Year means an amount, not less than zero, equal to the Net Tax Benefit that is Attributable to such TRA Party and the Interest Amount with respect thereto. For Tax purposes, the Interest Amount shall not be treated as interest, but instead, shall be treated as additional consideration in the applicable transaction, unless otherwise required by law. Subject to Section 3.03, the “Net Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year shall be an amount equal to the excess, if any, of 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit as of the end of such Taxable Year, over the total amount of payments previously made under the first sentence of Section 3.01 (excluding payments attributable to Interest Amounts); provided, that no such recipient shall be required to return any portion of any previously made Tax Benefit Payment. The “Interest Amount” shall equal the interest on the Net Tax Benefit calculated at the Agreed Rate from the due date (without extensions) for filing IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) of the Corporate Taxpayer with respect to Taxes for such Taxable Year until the payment date under Section 3.01. 
Section 3.02. No Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in duplicative payment of any amount (including interest) required under this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in the appropriate manner to ensure such intentions are realized. 
Section 3.03. Pro Rata Payments. Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.01 to the contrary, to the extent that the aggregate Realized Tax Benefit of the Corporate Taxpayer with respect to the Tax Attributes is limited in a particular Taxable Year because the Corporate Taxpayer does not have sufficient taxable income, the Net Tax Benefit for that Taxable Year shall be allocated among all parties then-eligible to receive Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement in proportion to the amounts of Net Tax Benefit for that Taxable Year, respectively, that would have been Attributable to each TRA Party if the Corporate Taxpayer had sufficient taxable income if there were no such limitation. 
Section 3.04. Payment Ordering. If for any reason any Applicable Buyer does not fully satisfy its payment obligations to make all Tax Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year, then (i) Tax Benefit Payments for such Taxable Year shall be allocated to all parties eligible to receive Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement in such Taxable Year in proportion to the amounts of Tax Benefit Payments, respectively, that would have been made to each TRA Party if all Applicable Buyers had sufficient cash available to make such Tax Benefit Payments and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payments shall be made in respect of any Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payments to all TRA Parties in respect of all prior Taxable Years have been made in full.

ARTICLE 4 
TERMINATION 
Section 4.01. Early Termination of Agreement; Change of Control. (a) The Applicable Buyer may terminate this Agreement with respect to (i) all amounts payable to the TRA Parties and with respect to all of the Common Units held by the TRA Parties at any time by paying to each TRA Party the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party, subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.01(a), or (ii) the amount payable to any individual TRA Party, if such TRA Party would be entitled to receive less than 1% of the aggregate Early Termination Payment with respect to all TRA Parties, by paying to any such individual TRA Party the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party; provided, however, that this Agreement shall terminate only upon the receipt of the Early Termination Payment by all TRA Parties, and provided, further, that the Corporate Taxpayer may withdraw any notice to execute its termination rights under this Section 4.01(a) prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment has been paid. Upon payment of the Early Termination Payment in respect of each TRA Party by the Corporate Taxpayer the Corporate Taxpayer shall have no further payment obligations under this Agreement, other than for any (A) Tax Benefit Payments due and payable and that remain unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice and (B) Tax Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of the Early Termination Notice (except to the extent that the amount described in clause Section 4.01 is included in the Early Termination Payment). If an Exchange occurs after the Corporate Taxpayer makes all of the required Early Termination Payments, the Corporate Taxpayer shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Exchange. 
(b) If the Corporate Taxpayer (A) shall commence any case, proceeding or other action (1) under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or seeking to adjudicate a bankruptcy or insolvency, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its debts or (2) seeking an appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, or it shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or (B) there shall be commenced against the Corporate Taxpayer any case, proceeding or other action of the nature referred to in clause (b) above that remains undismissed or undischarged for a period of sixty (60) calendar days, all obligations hereunder shall be automatically accelerated and shall be immediately due and payable, and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such breach and shall include (x) the Early Termination Payments calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of a breach, (y) any Tax Benefit Payment due and payable and that remains unpaid as of the date of a breach, and (z) any Tax Benefit Payment in respect of any TRA Party due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of a breach; provided, that procedures similar to the procedures of Section 4.02 shall apply with respect to the determination of the amount payable by the Corporate Taxpayer pursuant to this sentence. 

17

 
(c) In the event of a Change of Control, all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such Change of Control and utilizing the Valuation Assumptions by substituting in each case the terms “the closing date of a Change of Control” in each place where the phrase “Early Termination Date” appears. Such obligations shall include (i) the Early Termination Payments calculated as if the Early Termination Date is the date of such Change of Control, (ii) any Tax Benefit Payment due and payable and that remains unpaid as of the date of such Change of Control, and (iii) any Tax Benefit Payment in respect of any TRA Party due for any Taxable Year ending prior to, with or including the date of such Change of Control (except to the extent any amounts described in clause (ii) or (iii) are included in the Early Termination Payment). Sections 4.02 and 4.03 shall apply to a Change of Control, mutatis mutandis. 
Section 4.02. Early Termination Notice. If the Corporate Taxpayer chooses to exercise its right of early termination under Section 4.01(a) above, the Corporate Taxpayer shall deliver to the TRA Party Representative notice of such intention to exercise such right (“Early Termination Notice”) and a schedule (the “Early Termination Schedule”) specifying the Corporate Taxpayer’s intention to exercise such right under either clause (i) or (ii) thereof and showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment(s) due for each relevant TRA Party. Each Early Termination Schedule shall become final and binding on all parties thirty (30) calendar days from the first date on which the TRA Party Representative is treated as having received such Schedule or amendment thereto under Section 7.01 unless the TRA Party Representative (i) within thirty (30) calendar days after such date provides the Corporate Taxpayer with notice of a material objection to such Schedule made in good faith (“Material Objection Notice”) or (ii) provides a written waiver of such right of a Material Objection Notice within the period described in clause Section 4.02 above, in which case such Schedule becomes binding on the date the waiver is received by the Corporate Taxpayer. If the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in such notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Corporate Taxpayer of the Material Objection Notice, the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures in which case such Schedule becomes binding ten (10) calendar days after the conclusion of the Reconciliation Procedures. The TRA Party Representative will fairly represent the interests of each TRA Party and shall timely raise and pursue, in accordance with this Section 4.02, any reasonable objection to an Early Termination Schedule or amendment thereto timely communicated in writing to the TRA Party Representative by a TRA Party. 
Section 4.03. Payment upon Early Termination. (a) Within ten (10) calendar days after an Early Termination Effective Date, the Corporate Taxpayer shall pay to each relevant TRA Party an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party.

18

 
(b) “Early Termination Payment” in respect of a TRA Party shall equal the present value, discounted at the Early Termination Rate as of the applicable Early Termination Effective Date, of all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of such TRA Party that would be required to be paid by the Corporate Taxpayer beginning from the Early Termination Date and assuming that the Valuation Assumptions in respect of such TRA Party are applied and that each Tax Benefit Payment for the relevant Taxable Year would be due and payable on the due date (without extensions) under applicable law as of the Early Termination Effective Date for filing of IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) of the Corporate Taxpayer. 
ARTICLE 5

To the extent that any payment under this Agreement is not permitted to be made at the time payment is due as a result of this Section 5.01 and the terms of agreements governing Senior Obligations, such payment obligation nevertheless shall accrue for the benefit of TRA Parties and the Corporate Taxpayer shall make such payments at the first opportunity that such payments are permitted to be made in accordance with the terms of the Senior Obligations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the Corporate Taxpayer or any of its Affiliates enters into future Tax receivable or other similar agreements (“Future TRAs”), the Corporate Taxpayer shall ensure that the terms of any such Future TRA shall provide that the Tax Attributes subject to this Agreement are considered senior or pari passu in priority to any Tax attributes subject to any such Future TRA for purposes of calculating the amount and timing of payments under any such Future TRA. 
Section 5.02. Late Payments by the Corporate Taxpayer. Subject to the proviso in the last sentence of Section 4.01(b), the amount of all or any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment not made to the TRA Parties when due under the terms of this Agreement, whether as a result of Section 5.01 or otherwise, shall be payable together with any interest thereon, computed at the Default Rate and commencing from the date on which such Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment was first due and payable to the date of actual payment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporate Taxpayer shall notify the TRA Party Representative of the portion of any audit of the Corporate Taxpayer and one or more Partnerships by a Taxing Authority the outcome of which is reasonably expected to materially affect the rights and obligations of a TRA Party under this Agreement and, upon written request, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the TRA Party Representative with the opportunity to provide information and other input to the Corporate Taxpayer, the Partnerships, and their respective advisors concerning the conduct of any such portion of such audit that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the TRA Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
Section 6.02. Consistency. The Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Parties agree to report and cause to be reported for all purposes, including U.S. federal, state and local Tax purposes and financial reporting purposes, all Tax-related items (including, the Basis Adjustments and each Tax Benefit Payment) in a manner consistent with that contemplated by this Agreement or specified by the Corporate Taxpayer in any Schedule required to be provided by or on behalf of the Corporate Taxpayer under this Agreement unless otherwise required by law. The Corporate Taxpayer shall (and shall cause the Partnerships and their other Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts (after taking into account the interests and entitlements of all TRA Parties under this Agreement) to defend the Tax treatment contemplated by this Agreement and any Schedule in any audit, contest or similar proceeding with any Taxing Authority. 
Section 6.03. Cooperation. Each of the TRA Parties shall (a) furnish to the Corporate Taxpayer in a timely manner such information, documents and other materials as the Corporate Taxpayer may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary or appropriate under this Agreement, preparing any Tax Return or contesting or defending any audit, examination or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (b) make itself available to the Corporate Taxpayer and its representatives to provide explanations of documents and materials and such other information as the Corporate Taxpayer or its representatives may reasonably request in connection with any of the matters described in clause Section 6.03 above, and (c) reasonably cooperate in connection with any such matter, and the Corporate Taxpayer shall reimburse each such TRA Party for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred pursuant to this Section 6.03. Upon the request of any TRA Party, the Corporate Taxpayer shall cooperate in taking any action reasonably requested by such TRA Party in connection with its tax or financial reporting and/or the consummation of any assignment or transfer of any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, including providing any information or executing any documentation.

Section 7.09. Reconciliation. If the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to the matters governed by Sections 2.03 and 4.02 within the relevant period designated in this Agreement (“Reconciliation Dispute”), the Reconciliation Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “Expert”) in the particular area of disagreement mutually acceptable to both parties. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally recognized accounting or law firm, and unless the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative agree otherwise, the Expert shall not, and the firm that employs the Expert shall not, have any material relationship with the Corporate Taxpayer or the TRA Party Representative or other actual or potential conflict of interest. If the Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative are unable to agree on an Expert within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the respondent(s) of written notice of a Reconciliation Dispute, then the Expert shall be appointed by the International Chamber of Commerce Centre for Expertise. The Expert shall resolve any matter relating to the TRA Party’s Basis Schedule or an amendment thereto or the Early Termination Schedule or an amendment thereto within thirty (30) calendar days and shall resolve any matter relating to a Tax Benefit Schedule or an amendment thereto within fifteen (15) calendar days or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, in each case after the matter has been submitted to the Expert for resolution. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the matter is not resolved before any payment that is the subject of a disagreement would be due (in the absence of such disagreement) or any Tax Return reflecting the subject of a disagreement is due, the undisputed amount shall be paid on the date prescribed by this Agreement and such Tax Return may be filed as prepared by the Corporate Taxpayer, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. The costs and expenses relating to the engagement of such Expert or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by the Corporate Taxpayer except as provided in the next sentence. The Corporate Taxpayer and the TRA Party Representative shall bear their own costs and expenses of such proceeding unless (i) the Expert adopts the TRA Party Representative’s position, in which case the Corporate Taxpayer shall reimburse the TRA Party Representative for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert adopts the Corporate Taxpayer’s position, in which case the TRA Party Representative shall reimburse the Corporate Taxpayer for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding; provided that the TRA Party Representative may use the reimbursement mechanism in the provisions of Section 7.15(b). Any dispute as to whether a dispute is a Reconciliation Dispute within the meaning of this Section 7.09 shall be decided by the Expert. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute and the determinations of the Expert pursuant to this Section 7.09 shall be binding on the Corporate Taxpayer and each of the TRA Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction. 
Section 7.10. Withholding. The Corporate Taxpayer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Corporate Taxpayer is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent 

23

that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by the Corporate Taxpayer, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such withholding was made. To the extent that any payment pursuant to this Agreement is not reduced by such deductions or withholdings, such recipient shall indemnify the applicable withholding agent for any amounts imposed by any Taxing Authority together with any costs and expenses related thereto. Each TRA Party shall promptly provide the Corporate Taxpayer, the Partnerships or other applicable withholding agent with any applicable Tax forms and certifications (including IRS Form W-9 or the applicable version of IRS Form W-8) reasonably requested, in connection with determining whether any such deductions and withholdings are required under the Code or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign Tax law. 
Section 7.11. Admission of the Corporate Taxpayer into a Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets. (a) If the Corporate Taxpayer is or becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a consolidated income Tax Return pursuant to Sections 1501 et seq. of the Code or any corresponding provisions of state or local law, then: (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to the group as a whole and (ii) Tax Benefit Payments, Early Termination Payments and other applicable items hereunder shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income of the group as a whole. 
(b) If the Corporate Taxpayer (or any member of a group described in Section 7.11(a)) transfers or is deemed to transfer any Common Unit or any Reference Asset to a transferee that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (other than a member of a group described in Section 7.11(a)) in a transaction in which the transferee’s basis in the property acquired is determined in whole or in part by reference to such transferor’s basis in such property, then the Corporate Taxpayer shall cause such transferee to assume the obligation to make payments hereunder with respect to the applicable Tax Attributes associated with any Reference Asset or interest therein acquired (directly or indirectly) in such transfer (taking into account any gain recognized in the transaction) in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement as the transferee (or one of its Affiliates) actually realizes Tax benefits from the Tax Attributes. If a Partnership transfers (or is deemed to transfer for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) any Reference Asset to a transferee that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (other than a member of a group described in Section 7.11(a)) in a transaction in which the transferee’s basis in the property acquired is determined in whole or in part by reference to such transferor’s basis in such property, such Partnership shall be treated as having disposed of the Reference Asset in a wholly taxable transaction. The consideration deemed to be received by such Partnership in a transaction contemplated in the prior sentence shall be equal to the fair market value of the deemed transferred asset, plus (i) the amount of debt to which such asset is subject, in the case of a transfer of an encumbered asset or (ii) the amount of debt allocated to such asset, in the case of a transfer of a partnership interest. If any member of a group described in Section 7.11(a) that owns any Common Unit deconsolidates from the group (or the Corporate Taxpayer deconsolidates from the group), then the Corporate Taxpayer shall cause such member (or the parent of the consolidated group in a case where the Corporate Taxpayer 

24

deconsolidates from the group) to assume the obligation to make payments hereunder with respect to the applicable Tax Attributes associated with any Reference Asset it owns (directly or indirectly) in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement as the member (or one of its Affiliates) actually realizes Tax benefits. If a transferee or a member of a group described in Section 7.11(a) assumes an obligation to make payments hereunder pursuant to either of the foregoing sentences, then the initial obligor is relieved of the obligation assumed. 
(c) If the Corporate Taxpayer (or any member of a group described in Section 7.11(a)) transfers (or is deemed to transfer for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) any Common Units in a transaction that is wholly or partially taxable, then for purposes of calculating payments under this Agreement, the Partnerships shall be treated as having disposed of the portion of any Reference Asset that is indirectly transferred by the Corporate Taxpayer (i.e., taking into account the number of Common Units transferred) in a wholly or partially taxable transaction in which all income, gain or loss is allocated to the Corporate Taxpayer. The consideration deemed to be received by the Partnerships shall be equal to the fair market value of the deemed transferred asset, plus (i) the amount of debt to which such asset is subject, in the case of a transfer of an encumbered asset or (ii) the amount of debt allocated to such asset, in the case of a transfer of a partnership interest. 
Section 7.12. Confidentiality. (a) Subject to the last sentence of Section 6.03, each TRA Party and each of their assignees acknowledge and agree that the information of the Corporate Taxpayer is confidential and, except in the course of performing any duties as necessary for the Corporate Taxpayer and its Affiliates, as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement, such person shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters, acquired pursuant to this Agreement, of the Corporate Taxpayer and its Affiliates and successors, concerning any Partnership and its Affiliates and successors or the Members, learned by the TRA Party heretofore or hereafter. This Section 7.12 shall not apply to (i) any information that has been made publicly available by the Corporate Taxpayer or any of its Affiliates, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of the TRA Party in violation of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business opportunity and (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent necessary for the TRA Party to prepare and file its Tax Returns, to respond to any inquiries regarding the same from any Taxing Authority or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit by any Taxing Authority with respect to such returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each TRA Party and each of its assignees (and each employee, representative or other agent of the TRA Party or its assignees, as applicable) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax treatment and Tax structure of the Corporate Taxpayer, the Partnerships and their Affiliates, and any of their transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other Tax analyses) that are provided to the TRA Party relating to such Tax treatment and Tax structure. 

25

 
(b) If a TRA Party or an assignee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 7.12, the Corporate Taxpayer shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 7.12 specifically enforced by injunctive relief or otherwise by any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable injury to the Corporate Taxpayer or any of its Subsidiaries or the TRA Parties and the accounts and funds managed by the Corporate Taxpayer and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate remedy to such Persons. Such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. 
Section 7.13. Change in Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in law, a TRA Party reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could cause income (other than income arising from receipt of a payment under this Agreement) recognized by the TRA Party upon any Exchange by such TRA Party to be treated as ordinary income rather than capital gain (or otherwise taxed at ordinary income rates) for U.S. federal income Tax purposes or would have other material adverse Tax consequences to such TRA Party, then at the election of such TRA Party and to the extent specified by such TRA Party, this Agreement (i) shall cease to have further effect with respect to such TRA Party, (ii) shall not apply to an Exchange by such TRA Party occurring after a date specified by such TRA Party, or (iii) shall otherwise be amended in a manner determined by such TRA Party, Buyer and PubCorp as it relates to such TRA Party, provided, that such amendment shall not result in an increase in payments under this Agreement at any time as compared to the amounts and times of payments that would have been due in the absence of such amendment. 
Section 7.14. Exchanges of TPG Partner Units. If any Person effects an exchange described in Section 2.7(e) of the Exchange Agreement, such Person shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as having effected an Exchange of Common Units. 
Section 7.15. TRA Party Representative. 
(a) By executing this Agreement, each of the TRA Parties shall be deemed to have irrevocably constituted the TRA Party Representative as his, her or its agent and attorney in fact with full power of substitution to act from and after the date hereof and to do any and all things and execute any and all documents on behalf of such TRA Parties which may be necessary, convenient or appropriate to facilitate any matters under this Agreement, including: (i) execution of the documents and certificates required pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) except to the extent specifically provided in this Agreement receipt and forwarding of notices and communications pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) administration of the provisions of this Agreement; (iv) any and all consents, waivers, amendments or modifications deemed by the TRA Party Representative, in its sole and absolute discretion, to be necessary or appropriate under this Agreement and the execution or delivery of any documents that may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith; (v) amending this Agreement or any of the instruments to be delivered to the Corporate Taxpayer pursuant to this Agreement; (vi) taking actions the TRA Party Representative is expressly authorized to take pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement; (vii) negotiating and compromising, on behalf of such TRA Parties, 

26

any dispute that may arise under, and exercising or refraining from exercising any remedies available under, this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby and executing, on behalf of such TRA Parties, any settlement agreement, release or other document with respect to such dispute or remedy; and (viii) engaging attorneys, accountants, agents or consultants on behalf of such TRA Parties in connection with this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby and paying any fees related thereto. 
(b) If at any time the TRA Party Representative shall incur out of pocket expenses in connection with the exercise of its duties hereunder, upon written notice to the Corporate Taxpayer from the TRA Party Representative of documented costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants) incurred by the TRA Party Representative in connection with the performance of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the taking of any and all actions in connection therewith, the Corporate Taxpayer shall reduce the future payments (if any) due to the TRA Parties hereunder pro rata by the amount of such expenses which it shall instead remit directly to the TRA Party Representative. In connection with the performance of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the taking of any and all actions in connection therewith, the TRA Party Representative shall not be required to expend any of its own funds (though, for the avoidance of doubt but without limiting the provisions of this Section 7.15(b), it may do so at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion. 
(c) The TRA Party Representative may resign upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Corporate Taxpayer. To the fullest extent permitted by law, none of the TRA Party Representative, any of its Affiliates, or any of the TRA Party Representative’s or Affiliate’s directors, officers, employees or other agents (each a “Covered Person”) shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to any TRA Party, any Partnership or the Corporate Taxpayer for damages arising from any action taken or omitted to be taken by the TRA Party Representative or any other Person with respect to any Partnership or the Corporate Taxpayer, except in the case of any action or omission which constitutes, with respect to such Person, willful misconduct or fraud. Each of the Covered Persons may consult with legal counsel, accountants, and other experts selected by it, and any act or omission suffered or taken by it on behalf of any Partnership or the Corporate Taxpayer or in furtherance of the interests of any Partnership or the Corporate Taxpayer in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or other experts shall create a rebuttable presumption of the good faith and due care of such Covered Person with respect to such act or omission; provided, that such counsel, accountants, or other experts were selected with reasonable care. Each of the Covered Persons may rely in good faith upon, and shall have no liability to any Partnership, the Corporate Taxpayer or the TRA Parties for acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
