Grantee may not transfer those rights, directly or indirectly, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 
 5. Award Subject to Plan and
LLC Agreement Provisions. This Award is made pursuant to the Plan and the LLC Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan and the LLC Agreement. The

6. No Employment or Other Rights. This Award Agreement is not an agreement of employment and the grant of this Award shall not confer upon the
Grantee any right to be retained by or in the employ of the Company and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Grantee’s employment at any time. The right of the Company, as applicable, to terminate at
will the Grantee’s employment at any time for any reason is specifically reserved. The grant of this Award shall not entitle the Grantee to any (i) voting rights with respect to any action or decision taken or made (or to be taken or made)

 8. Amendment and Termination; Section 409A. The Administrator may amend the
Plan or this Award, or terminate the Plan, at any time; provided that no amendment or termination of the Plan or this Award shall, without the consent of a Grantee, adversely impact the rights of the Grantee under this Award, unless necessary to
meet the requirements of any applicable law or regulation. Before amending or terminating the Plan or this Award to meet the requirements of an applicable law or regulation, the Administrator will attempt to bring the Plan or Award into compliance
with the applicable law or regulation without reducing the benefits or payments to the Grantee to the greatest extent possible. If amendment or termination is still necessary and adversely impacts the rights of the Grantee, the Administrator will
reasonably cooperate with the Grantee to adopt replacement benefits or payments that to the greatest extent possible places the Grantee in the same or a comparable economic position as if the Plan or Award had not been amended or terminated.

Award, payment of the Payment Amount is intended to comply with Section 409A, to the extent subject thereto, and shall be interpreted and construed consistent with that intent. The Company may reform this Award or any provision hereof to
maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original intent of the provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A, provided, that any deferral of payments shall be only for such time period as may be required to comply with
Section 409A. 
 9. Headings. Section headings are for reference only. In the event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a
Section, the content of the Section shall control. 
 10. Applicable Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this Award
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
