4

9

fully paid and non-assessable and free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than the Ownership Limit and, to the extent applicable, the Securities Act and relevant state securities or “blue sky” laws, and immediately upon such delivery the Tendering Pledgee Party shall be deemed to have delivered the Tendered Common Units to the Company in exchange for such Pledgee Exchanged Shares; and
		
	(vi)
	if (A) concurrently with the delivery of the applicable Pledgee Party Notice of Redemption, such Tendering Pledgee Party shall have delivered to the Company a certificate executed by a duly authorized signatory of the Tendering Pledgee Party in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, (B) the Shelf Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is effective, the Company is eligible to use the Shelf Registration Statement and the plan of distribution in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement (the “Resale Prospectus”) covers the offering contemplated pursuant to the immediately following clause (C), (C) concurrently with the delivery of a Pledgee Party Redemption Notice, the applicable Tendering Pledgee Party provides written notice to the Company (x) that such Tendering Pledgee Party has entered into a firm underwriting agreement or other binding agreement and, pursuant to which, it has sold or will (on or prior to the Pledgee Party Redemption Date) sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Resale Prospectus in an amount equal to the number of Pledgee Exchanged Shares that may be issued by the Company in connection with the redemption of the Tendering Pledgee Party’s Tendered Common Units pursuant to this Section 2(i), and (y) identifying, and providing all necessary information to give effect to the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock to, the intended recipient(s) of such shares (the “Proposed Recipients”), (D) the issuance of Pledgee Exchanged Shares to the Tendering Pledgee Party in exchange for such Tendering Pledgee Party’s Tendered Common Units would not otherwise be prohibited by the Ownership Limit as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion and (E) no Suspension Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is then in effect or has been declared by the Company within one Business Day after the delivery of the applicable Pledgee Party Notice of Redemption, then (x) the Company agrees that such Tendering Pledgee Party’s Tendered Common Units shall not be redeemed by the Partnership for cash as described in Section 2(i)(iii) and (y) in lieu of issuing the Pledgee Exchanged Shares to the Tendering Pledgee Party as described in Section 2(i)(v), the Company shall issue and deliver such Pledgee Exchanged Shares, which Pledgee Exchanged Shares shall not contain a legend regarding restrictions under the Securities Act, to the Proposed Recipients (in the proposed denominations set forth in such written notice), which delivery may be effected through DTC’s Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian service or Direct Registration System (to the extent such deliveries are requested and reasonably available), no later than 9:30 a.m. Eastern time on the Pledgee Party Redemption Date.

Reg. Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)(ii)).

Undertakings of Pledgee

3. Pledgee hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees with the Company, for itself and for each other Pledgee Party, that:
 
		
	(a)
	The Pledged Shares and any Pledgee Exchanged Shares are subject to the provisions set forth in the Company’s organizational documents, including without limitation Article VI of the Company’s charter and the restrictive legend set forth in Section 6.2.9 therein.  Pledgee agrees with the Company that each Pledgee Party shall comply with such provisions in connection with any foreclosure sale to it.  Pledgee further agrees that, if the Company requests any information, certification or affidavit from any third party (other than the Borrower or any Guarantor) that purchases Pledged Shares or Pledgee Exchanged Shares from any Pledgee Party, such Pledgee Party will reasonably cooperate with the Company’s efforts to obtain such information, certification or affidavit. 

		
	(b)
	The Pledged Shares and any Pledgee Exchanged Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, and are and will be therefore “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144, and agrees that the Pledged Shares and any Pledgee Exchanged Shares may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise made subject to a security interest or otherwise transferred (it being understood that a release of the Pledged Shares from the lien granted under the relevant Pledge Agreement shall not constitute a “transfer” for these purposes) except following an Event of Default:

		
	(i)
	to the Company or any Subsidiary (as defined in the Loan Agreement) thereof; 

		
	(ii)
	pursuant to a transaction registered under the Securities Act; 

		
	(iii)
	pursuant to Rule 144, assuming that (A) subject to clause (B) below, the holding period for any Pledgee Party under Rule 144 with respect to Pledged Shares shall be deemed to have commenced on the later of the Initial Closing Date or the date the Commitment (as defined in the Loan Agreement) was made in respect of the Advance under the Loan Agreement to which such foreclosure sale relates (as reasonably determined by such Pledgee Party) or (B) if later, the holding period for any Pledgee Party under Rule 144 with respect to any Pledgee Exchanged Shares or any Loan Party Exchanged Shares shall be deemed to have commenced on the applicable Pledgee Party Redemption Date or Sponsor Redemption Date (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), as applicable; or

		
	(iv)
	otherwise in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act where (A) such shares are directly registered on the books and records of the Transfer Agent, or are in certificated form, in the name of the Borrower, any Guarantor, any Pledgee Party or the relevant purchaser and such shares of Common Stock are legended with a transfer restriction legend in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto and either:

		
	(1)
	the purchaser is an “institutional accredited investor” under the Securities Act and in the aggregate owns and invests on a discretionary basis not less than $25,000,000 in investments, such shares of Common Stock are legended with a transfer restriction legend in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto and prior to settlement the Company is provided with a seller’s letter of representation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 and a buyer’s letter of representation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2, and, such purchaser buys a number of shares of Common Stock for an aggregate price of at least $2.5 million; or

		
	(2)
	prior to settlement the Company is provided with an opinion of nationally recognized counsel, which opinion and counsel are reasonably acceptable to the Company, that such shares of Common Stock may be sold in the applicable transaction without registration under the Securities Act and such purchaser agrees to the limitations set forth in this Section 3(b), or

11

(B) in the case of Pledged Shares that satisfy the requirements set forth under Rule 144A(d)(3)(i) under the Securities Act, such shares are directly registered on the books and records of the Transfer Agent, or are in certificated form, in the name of the Borrower, any Guarantor, any Pledgee Party or the relevant purchaser and are legended with a transfer restriction legend in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto, seller reasonably believes that the purchaser is a qualified institutional buyer (as defined in Rule 144A) and the Company is provided with a buyer’s letter of representation in the form attached as Exhibit H where the portion of such Exhibit indicated by “[***]” shall be completed in a manner so that the Pledged Shares to be purchased by such purchaser are subject to the same Rule 144 holding period that applies to any Pledgee Party with respect to such Pledged Shares pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii).

		
	(c)
	The Pledged Units are subject to the provisions set forth in the Partnership Agreement (as modified by the Stockholders Agreement and this Issuer Agreement).  Pledgee agrees with the Company that each Pledgee Party shall comply with such provisions in connection with any foreclosure.

		
	(d)
	The Pledged Units have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, and are therefore “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144, and agrees that the Pledged Units may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise made subject to a security interest or otherwise transferred (it being understood that a release of the Pledged Units from the lien granted under the relevant Pledge Agreement and the exercise of the Common Redemption Right with respect to Pledged Units shall not constitute a “transfer” for these purposes) except following an Event of Default:

		
	(i)
	to the Company, the Partnership or any Subsidiary thereof; 

		
	(ii)
	pursuant to a transaction registered under the Securities Act; 

		
	(iii)
	pursuant to Rule 144, assuming that the holding period for any Pledgee Party under Rule 144 shall be deemed to have commenced (A) subject to clause (B) below, on the later of the Initial Closing Date or the date the Commitment was made in respect of the Advance under the Loan Agreement to which such foreclosure sale relates (as reasonably determined by such Pledgee Party) or (B) if later, in the case of Pledged Units that are Remaining Collateral, on the date such Common Units were first pledged to any Applicable Lender; or

		
	(iv)
	otherwise in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act where:

		
	(A)
	the purchaser is an “institutional accredited investor” under the Securities Act and in the aggregate owns and invests on a discretionary basis not less than $25,000,000 in investments and prior to settlement the Company is provided with a seller’s letter of representation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I-1 and a buyer’s letter of representation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I-2, and, such purchaser buys a number of Common Units for an aggregate price of at least $2.5 million; or

		
	(B)
	prior to settlement the Company is provided with an opinion of nationally recognized counsel, which opinion and counsel are reasonably acceptable to the Company, that such Common Units may be sold in the applicable transaction without registration under the Securities Act and such purchaser agrees to the limitations set forth in this Section 3(d).

		
	(e)
	As a condition to acquiring any Pledged Units, Pledgee will be required to execute a joinder to the Partnership Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D and will be required to comply with the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement (as modified by this Issuer Agreement) and this Issuer Agreement.  

		
	(f)
	As a condition to the transfer of any Pledged Units by Pledgee, any transferee thereof will be required to execute a joinder to the Partnership Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and will be required to comply with the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement.

12

		
	(g)
	Upon any release of Pledged Shares from Pledgee’s Collateral Account, which are not in certificated form or book-entry form registered on the books and records of the Transfer Agent and subject to a restrictive legend, and the lien granted under the relevant Pledge Agreement (other than a transfer to an Acceptable Collateral Account or to settle a sale registered under the Securities Act or effected pursuant to Rule 144), Pledgee shall reasonably cooperate with Company and the Transfer Agent to facilitate the registration of such Pledged Shares on the books and records of the Transfer Agent in the name of the Borrower or the Guarantors or, in accordance with Section 3(b), the name of any other party, as applicable, and subject to a restrictive legend in the form of Exhibit A.  The Pledgee agrees to notify the Company prior to such release and to provide all cooperation as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Transfer Agent to effect the re-coding of such restrictive legend.  “Acceptable Collateral Account” means a Collateral Account subject to the control of a Lender (other than control by virtue of another Lender acting as its agent for perfection) that, in the case of a Lender other than Pledgee, either (i) is party to an agreement with the Company substantially identical to this Issuer Agreement dated as of even date herewith (an “Other Issuer Agreement”) or (ii) has executed a joinder to this Issuer Agreement or an Other Issuer Agreement pursuant to Section 3(j) hereof or thereof, as applicable.

		
	(h)
	If any Pledgee Party reasonably determines that it is, at the time of any sale of Pledged Shares or Pledgee Exchanged Shares pursuant to clause (b)(iii) above, the time of any sale of Pledged Units pursuant to clause (d)(iii) above or at any time during the preceding three months has been, an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) (in the case of any sale of Pledged Shares or Pledgee Exchanged Shares) or an affiliate of the Partnership (in the case of any sale of Pledged Units), then such Pledgee Party will comply with the conditions set forth in Rule 144 applicable to sales by affiliates, including the manner and volume conditions thereunder.

		
	(i)
	It has the power to execute and deliver this Issuer Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution, delivery and performance, and its obligations under this Issuer Agreement constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to equitable principles of general application (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law)). 

		
	(j)
	Pledgee shall not have the right to assign its rights under this Issuer Agreement, except (i) with the consent of the Company or (ii) to any permitted assignee listed on Exhibit J hereto.  Any assignee of Pledgee’s rights and obligations permitted pursuant to the preceding sentence shall deliver to the Company, to the Borrower and to each Guarantor an executed counterpart in the form of Exhibit K hereto to a deemed agreement with terms and conditions identical to those contained in this Issuer Agreement, except that such assignee shall be substituted for Pledgee in such agreement.  Upon such delivery, such agreement shall be deemed to be automatically effective among such assignee, the Company, the Borrower and each Guarantor without further action by the Company, the Borrower and each Guarantor.  Pledgee will not transfer any Collateral consisting of equity securities of the Company or the Partnership to or at the direction of any such assignee except in compliance with the terms of this Issuer Agreement, the Company’s charter and the Partnership Agreement (as modified by this Issuer Agreement).

		
	(k)
	Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Pledgee covenants, for the benefit of the Borrower and the Guarantors, that it will not deliver Written Instructions concerning the Pledged Units, except in accordance with this Issuer Agreement.

		
	(l)
	Pledgee agrees, solely for the benefit of the Borrower and the Guarantors, that it will notify the Company that the provisions of Section 2(c) are terminated promptly following request from the Borrower or any Guarantor delivered at a time when (i) all Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement) (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted or accrued) owed to Pledgee and any Agented Lender (as defined in the Loan Agreement) with respect thereto and any Related Parties of the foregoing have been paid in full and (ii) the Commitments (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Pledgee and any Agented Lender have been terminated in full (the “Termination Date”).

13

		
	(m)
	Pledgee is not, and has not been during the preceding three months, an affiliate (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company or the Partnership.

		
	(n)
	Pledgee acknowledges that the transfer agent of the Company and the Partnership maintains rules and requirements with respect to the transfer of shares of Common Stock and Common Units and with respect to the removal of legends.

		
	(o)
	Pledgee agrees that, upon reasonable request of the Company for further assistance, clarification or facilitating documentation of the type specified in Sections 1(f)(ii) and (iii) in connection with any matter set forth in Section 1(f) or 2(c), it will (and, if necessary to give effect to a transfer, will use good faith efforts to cause the relevant transferee to) cooperate in good faith with the Company to provide such assistance, clarification or facilitating documentation.

		
	(p)
	Pledgee agrees that the Company and its directors, officers and employees shall have no liability to any Pledgee Party for any breach of this Issuer Agreement by the Company that is caused, directly or indirectly, by the actions or omissions of the Borrower or any Guarantor.

		
	(q)
	Pledgee agrees that, at the time of exercising the Common Redemption Right (whether on Pledgee’s own behalf or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor), Pledgee will notify the Company in writing whether or not any Pledgee Party is or intends to be part of a “group” (as that term is used for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with any other Lender under the Loan Agreement, any Affiliate of such other Lender, the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to the shares of Common Stock received in connection with such exercise.  If Pledgee notifies the Company that any Pledgee Party is or intends to be part of a group with any other Lender under the Loan Agreement, any Affiliate of such other Lender, the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to such shares (a “Group Notice”), Pledgee covenants that such exercise will comply with the Ownership Limit as applied to the specified group as a group.  If Pledgee notifies the Company that each Pledgee Party is not and does not intend to be part of a group with any other Lender under the Loan Agreement, any Affiliate of such other Lender, the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect to such shares (a “Non-Group Notice”), Pledgee covenants that no Pledgee Party will thereafter become a part of such a group with respect to such shares unless, at the time of becoming a part of such a group, such group is in compliance with the Ownership Limit as applied to such group and at such time Pledge Party provides a Group Notice to the Company.

		
	(r)
	On the date hereof, Pledgee has provided the Company with a true and correct copy of the Loan Agreement (including the form of Pledge Agreements attached as exhibits thereto) as in effect on the date hereof.

		
	(s)
	Pledgee acknowledges that the Borrower and the Guarantors are subject to “standstill” obligations under the Stockholders Agreement.

	(a)

If the Borrower or any Guarantor does not provide such agreement pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Pledgee acknowledges and agrees that it may not proceed with such proposed acceptance of Pledged Units and that the failure to provide such agreement shall not give Pledgee the right to pursue any remedy against Borrower or any Guarantor. 

		
	(e)
	Agrees that it will not make or consent to make any Pledged Units “financial assets” as defined in Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (as in effect in any state), and that any attempt to do so shall be null and void ab initio.

		
	(f)

The Borrower and each Guarantor further agrees that for so long as the Advances are outstanding, it shall not consult with Pledgee or any of its Affiliates in connection with granting any waivers, delivering any consents or approving any amendments under each of the Partnership Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement.

		
	(j)
	Agrees that, from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Pledgee notifies the Borrower or such Guarantor that Pledgee intends to exercise the Common Redemption Right on the Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s behalf pursuant to Section 2(c), the Borrower or such Guarantor shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event within one Business Day of receipt of such notice, execute and deliver to Pledgee and the Company a duly completed Sponsor Notice of Redemption (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement) tendering for redemption the number of Common Units specified in Pledgee’s notice; provided that if Pledgee notifies the Borrower or such Guarantor that any shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with such exercise will be issued in the name of Borrower or such Guarantor, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not be required to execute and deliver such Sponsor Notice of Redemption with respect to a number of Common Units that, when taken together with Pledgee’s Applicable Percentage (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of the number of shares of Common Stock then held in the Collateral Accounts, would exceed the product of Pledgee’s Applicable Percentage and 9.8% of either (A) the aggregate of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or (B) the aggregate of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock (as defined in the Company’s charter), in each case based on the most recent information provided by the Company but giving effect to the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued in connection with such exercise.  The Borrower and each Guarantor represents and warrants that it does not, and the Blackstone Entities do not, Beneficially Own 

15

or Constructively Own (as such terms are defined in the Company’s charter) any shares of Common Stock other than shares held in the Collateral Accounts and up to 349,366 shares held by Nantucket and Blackhawk (which are not subject to the Pledge Agreements (in the form attached to the Loan Agreement as in effect on the date hereof)), and agrees that such representation and warranty shall remain true until this Issuer Agreement is terminated (except for any shares of Common Stock that are released from the Collateral Accounts in connection with a Permitted Sale Transaction). 
		
	(k)

	(l)

	(m)
	Agrees, on behalf of itself and on behalf of each of its Affiliates that is party to the Stockholders Agreement, that if any Lender under the Loan Agreement or any Affiliate or any other transferee of such Lender is admitted as a Partner in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement and this Issuer Agreement as a result of acquiring Pledged Units in connection with an exercise of remedies under the Pledge Agreements, then the words “thirty (30) partners” in Section 4.17(c) of the Stockholders Agreement shall be deleted and replaced with a number equal to the difference between 30 and such number of Lenders, their Affiliates or transferees admitted to the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Issuer Agreement.
