(ii)       the
U.S. federal income tax rates that will be in effect for each such Taxable Year will be those specified for each such Taxable Year by
the Code and other applicable Law as in effect on the Early Termination Effective Date and the combined U.S. state and local income tax
rates shall be the Assumed State and Local Tax Rate as of the Early Termination Effective Date, except, in each case, to the extent
any change to such tax rates for such Taxable Year have already been enacted into Law;

 

(iii)       all
taxable income of the Corporation will be subject to the maximum applicable tax rates for each Covered Tax throughout the relevant period;
provided, that the combined tax rate for U.S. state and local income taxes shall be the Assumed State and Local Tax Rate as of
the Early Termination Effective Date;

 

(iv)       any
loss carryovers or carrybacks generated by any Tax Attributes (including any Basis Adjustments or Imputed Interest generated as a result
of payments made or deemed to be made under this Agreement or Blocker Attributes) and available (taking into account any known and applicable
limitations) as of the date of the Early Termination Schedule and, without duplication, any Blocker Attributes described in clause (i)
of the definition thereof that have not been previously utilized in determining a Tax Benefit Payment as of the Early Termination Effective
Date will be used by the Corporation ratably in each of the 5 consecutive Taxable Years beginning with the Taxable Year that includes
the date of the Early Termination Schedule (but, in the case of any such carryover or carryback or Blocker Attribute that has less than
5 remaining Taxable Years, ratably through the scheduled expiration date under applicable tax law of such carryover or carryback or Blocker
Attribute) (by way of example, if on the date of the Early Termination Schedule the Corporation had $100 of net operating losses, $20
of such net operating losses would be used in each of the 5 consecutive Taxable Years beginning in the Taxable Year of such Early
Termination Schedule);

 

(v)       any
non-amortizable assets (other than stock of Subsidiaries) will be disposed of on the fifteenth anniversary of the earlier of (A) the applicable
Exchange (in the case of Basis Adjustments) or the date of the IPO (in the case of Blocker Attributes) and (B) the Early Termination Effective
Date; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, if the fifteenth anniversary of any date described in clause (A) has occurred prior to the
Early Termination Effective Date, the relevant non-amortizable assets will be disposed of on the Early Termination Effective Date;

 

(vi)       if,
on the Early Termination Effective Date, any Member has Class A Units that have not been Exchanged, then such Class A Units shall be
deemed to be Exchanged for the Market Value of the shares of Class C Common Stock that would be received by such Member had such
Class A Units actually been Exchanged on the Early Termination Effective Date;

 

    11

     

    

 

(vii)       any
future payment obligations pursuant to this Agreement that are used to calculate the Early Termination Payment will be satisfied on the
date that any Tax Return to which any such payment obligation relates is required to be filed excluding any extensions; and

 

(viii)       with
respect to Taxable Years ending prior to the Early Termination Effective Date, any unpaid Tax Benefit Payments and any applicable Default
Rate Interest will be paid.

 

“Voluntary Early Termination”

Determination of Realized Tax Benefit

 

SECTION 2.1.        
Basis Adjustments; Milan LLC 754 Election.

 

(a)              
Basis Adjustments. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) each Redemption shall be treated as a direct purchase of Class
A Units by the Corporation from the applicable Member pursuant to Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code (i.e., equivalent to a Direct
Exchange) and (ii) each Exchange will give rise to Basis Adjustments.

 

(b)              
Milan LLC Section 754 Election. The Corporation shall cause Milan LLC and each of its Subsidiaries that is treated as a
partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes to have in effect an election under Section 754 of the Code and any similar provisions
of U.S. state or local tax law for each Taxable Year. The Corporation shall take commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Person
in which Milan LLC owns a direct or indirect equity interest (other than a Subsidiary) that is so treated as a partnership to have in
effect any such election for each Taxable Year.

 

SECTION 2.2.        
Attribute Schedules. Within 150 calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation
for each relevant Taxable Year, the Corporation shall deliver to the Representatives a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, (a) the
Blocker Attributes for such Taxable Year, calculated (i) in the aggregate and (ii) solely with respect to each applicable TRA Holder,
(b) the Basis Adjustments to the Reference Assets for such Taxable Year, calculated (i) in the aggregate and (ii) solely with respect
to each applicable TRA Holder, and (c) the period over which the Blocker Attributes and the Basis Adjustments are amortizable, depreciable
or otherwise utilizable (such schedule, an “Attribute Schedule”). The Attribute Schedule shall also list any limitations
on the ability of the Corporation to utilize any Tax Attributes under applicable laws (including as a result of the operation of Section
382 of the Code or Section 383 of the Code). An Attribute Schedule will become final and binding on the Parties pursuant to the procedures
set forth in Section 2.4(a) and may be amended by the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(b).

 

SECTION 2.3.        
Tax Benefit Schedules.

 

(a)               Tax
Benefit Schedule. Within 150 calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for any
Taxable Year in which there is a Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment, the Corporation shall provide to the
Representatives a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for
such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”). A Tax Benefit Schedule will become final and binding on the Parties
pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(a) and may be amended by the Parties pursuant to the procedures set
forth in Section 2.4(b).

 

    13

     

    

 

(b)              
Applicable Principles. Subject to the provisions hereunder, the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for each
Taxable Year is intended to measure the decrease or increase in the Actual Tax Liability for such Taxable Year attributable to the Tax
Attributes, as determined using a “with and without” methodology described in Section 2.4(a). 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 governing the use, limitation or expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. For the avoidance of doubt,
the Corporation shall be entitled to make reasonable simplifying assumptions in making determinations contemplated by this Agreement,
including the assumption that the Assumed State and Local Tax Rate is to be applied against the amount of taxable income of the Corporation
for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is used in calculating the Actual Tax Liability and the Hypothetical Tax Liability (and the
Parties hereby agree that the Corporation’s determination of the Realized Tax Benefit and the Realized Tax Detriment with respect
to U.S. state and local taxes will not take into account jurisdiction-specific U.S. state and local adjustments to the U.S. federal taxable
income base). If a carryover or carryback of any tax item includes a portion that is attributable to any Tax Attribute (a “TRA
Portion”) and another portion that is not attributable to any Tax Attribute (a “Non-TRA Portion”), such portions
shall be considered to be used in accordance with the “with and without” methodology so that (i) the amount of any Non-TRA
Portion is deemed utilized first, followed by the amount of any TRA Portion (with the TRA Portion being applied on a proportionate basis
consistent with the provisions of Section 3.3(a)) and (ii) in the case of a carryback of a Non-TRA Portion, such carryback
shall not affect the original “with and without” calculation made in the prior Taxable Year. Except (1) with respect to the
portion of any Payment attributable to Imputed Interest or (2) as may be necessary to give effect to a separation pursuant to Section
7.5(a) of the beneficial ownership of Class A Units and the related rights under this Agreement, all Tax Benefit Payments (and any
other payments hereunder treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as additional purchase price, as determined by the Corporation)
attributable to the Basis Adjustments will be treated as subsequent upward purchase price adjustments that, in the case of an Exchange,
give rise to further Basis Adjustments for the Corporation beginning in the Taxable Year of payment, and as a result, such additional
Basis Adjustments will be incorporated into such Taxable Year and into future Taxable Years, as appropriate until any incremental Basis
Adjustments equal an immaterial amount (as determined by the Corporation in good faith). The Parties agree that, except with respect to
the portion attributable to Imputed Interest, all Tax Benefit Payments (and any other payments hereunder treated for U.S. federal income
tax purposes as additional purchase price, as determined by the Corporation) attributable to Blocker Attributes will be treated as non-qualifying
property or money received in connection with the Blocker Merger for purposes of Section 356 of the Code.

 

SECTION 2.4.        
Procedures; Amendments.

 

(a)               Procedures.
Each time the Corporation delivers a Schedule to the Representatives under this Agreement, the Corporation shall, with respect to
such Schedule, also (i) deliver to the Representatives supporting schedules and work papers, as determined by the Corporation
or as reasonably requested by any Representative, in each case, that provide a reasonable level of detail regarding relevant data
and calculations and (ii) allow the Representatives and their advisors to have reasonable access to the appropriate
representatives, as determined by the Corporation, at the Corporation or its advisors in connection with a review of relevant
information. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall ensure that any Tax Benefit Schedule
that is delivered to the Representatives, along with any supporting schedules and work papers, provides a reasonably detailed
presentation of the calculations of the Actual Tax Liability for the relevant Taxable Year and the Hypothetical Tax Liability for
such Taxable Year, and identifies any material assumptions or operating procedures or principles that were used for purposes of such
calculations. A Schedule will become final and binding on the TRA Holders thirty (30) calendar days from the date on which the
Representatives first received the applicable Schedule unless a Representative, within such period, provides the Corporation with
written notice of a material objection (made in good faith) to such Schedule and sets forth in reasonable detail such TRA
Representative’s material objection (an “Objection Notice”). If the Parties, for any reason, are unable to
resolve the issues raised in such Objection Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Corporation of the
Objection Notice, the Corporation and such Representative shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures described in Section 7.8
and the finalization of the Schedule will be conducted in accordance therewith.

 

    14

     

    

 

(b)              
Amended Schedule. A Schedule (other than an Early Termination Schedule) for any Taxable Year shall be amended from time
to time by the Corporation in the following circumstances (and only in such circumstances): (i) in connection with a Determination affecting
such Schedule, (ii) to correct inaccuracies in such Schedule identified as a result of the receipt of additional factual information relating
to a Taxable Year after the date such Schedule was originally provided to the Representatives, (iii) to comply with an Expert’s
determination under the Reconciliation Procedures, (iv) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for
such Taxable Year attributable to a carryover or carryback of a loss or other tax item to such Taxable Year, (v) to reflect a change in
the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable
Year, or (vi) to adjust a Schedule to take into account any Tax Benefit Payments made pursuant to this Agreement (any such Schedule in
its amended form, an “Amended Schedule”). The Corporation shall provide any Amended Schedule to the applicable Representatives
within thirty (30) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referred to in any of clauses (i) through (vi) of the preceding
sentence, and the delivery and finalization of any such Amended Schedule shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to the procedures
described in Section 2.4(a).

Tax Benefit Payments

 

SECTION 3.1.        
Timing and Amount of Tax Benefit Payments.

 

(a)               Timing
of Payments. Subject to Sections 3.2 and 3.3, by the date that is five (5) Business Days following the
date on which each Tax Benefit Schedule becomes final in accordance with Section 2.4(a) (such date, the “Final
Payment Date” in respect of any Tax Benefit Payment), the Corporation shall pay in full to each relevant TRA Holder the
Tax Benefit Payment as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(b). Each such Tax Benefit Payment shall be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated by such TRA Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, no
TRA Holder shall be required under any circumstances to return any Payment or any Default Rate Interest paid by the Corporation to
such TRA Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, and also for the avoidance of doubt, no Tax Benefit Payment shall be required to be
calculated or made in respect of any estimated tax payments, including, without limitation, any estimated U.S. federal income tax
payments.

 

    15

     

    

 

(b)              
Amount of Payments. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Tax Benefit Payment” with respect to any TRA Holder
means an amount, not less than zero, equal to the sum of the Net Tax Benefit that is Attributable to such TRA Holder and the Interest
Amount. No Tax Benefit Payment shall be calculated or made in respect of any estimated tax payments, including any estimated U.S. federal
income tax payments.

 

(i)                
Attributable. A Net Tax Benefit is “Attributable” to a TRA Holder with respect to any Tax Attribute under
the following principles:

 

(A)            
any Blocker Attributes are Attributable to the Blocker Shareholder; and

 

(B)             
any Basis Adjustment and Imputed Interest shall be determined separately with respect to each Member and each Exchange undertaken
by or with respect such Member in an amount equal to the total Basis Adjustments and Imputed Interest relating to the Class A Units Exchanged
by or with respect to such Member.

 

(ii)             
Net Tax Benefit. The “Net Tax Benefit” with respect to a TRA Holder for a Taxable Year equals the amount
of the excess, if any, of (A) 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit Attributable to such TRA Holder as of the end of such Taxable
Year over (B) the aggregate amount of all Tax Benefit Payments previously made to such TRA Holder under this Section 3.1 (excluding
payments attributable to Interest Amounts). For the avoidance of doubt, if Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit Attributable to such TRA
Holder as of the end of such Taxable Year is less than the aggregate amount of all Tax Benefit Payments previously made, no TRA Holder
shall be required to return any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment previously made by the Corporation to such TRA Holder.

 

(iii)           
Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit. The “Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year equals
the cumulative amount of Realized Tax Benefits for all Taxable Years of the Corporation, up to and including such Taxable Year, net of
the cumulative amount of Realized Tax Detriments for the same period. The Realized Tax Benefit and Realized Tax Detriment for each Taxable
Year shall be determined based on the most recent Tax Benefit Schedule or Amended Schedule, if any, in existence at the time of such determination.

 

    16

     

    

 

(iv)            
 Realized Tax Benefit. The “Realized Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year equals the excess, if any, of the
Hypothetical Tax Liability over the Actual Tax Liability for such Taxable Year. If all or a portion of the Actual Tax Liability for such
Taxable Year arises as a result of an audit or similar proceeding by a Taxing Authority of any Taxable Year, such liability shall not
be included in determining the Realized Tax Benefit unless and until there has been a Determination.

 

(v)              
Realized Tax Detriment. The “Realized Tax Detriment” for a Taxable Year equals the excess, if any, of
the Actual Tax Liability over the Hypothetical Tax Liability for such Taxable Year. If all or a portion of the Actual Tax Liability for
such Taxable Year arises as a result of an audit or similar proceeding by a Taxing Authority of any Taxable Year, such liability shall
not be included in determining the Realized Tax Detriment unless and until there has been a Determination.

 

(vi)            
Interest Amount. The “Interest Amount” in respect of a TRA Holder equals interest on the unpaid amount
of the Net Tax Benefit with respect to such TRA Holder for a Taxable Year, calculated at the Agreed Rate from the due date (without extensions)
for filing the U.S. federal income Tax Return of the Corporation for such Taxable Year until the earlier of (A) the date on which no remaining
Tax Benefit Payment to the TRA Holder is due in respect of such Net Tax Benefit and (B) the applicable Final Payment Date.

 

(vii)         
The TRA Holders acknowledge and agree that, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of any future Exchange that may
be subject to this Agreement, the aggregate value of the Tax Benefit Payments cannot be reasonably ascertained for U.S. federal income
or other applicable tax purposes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if such TRA Holder notifies the Corporation
in writing of a stated maximum selling price (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 15A.453-1(c)(2)) to be applied with respect to
such Exchange, the amount of the initial consideration received in connection with such Exchange and the aggregate Tax Benefit Payments
to such TRA Holder in respect of such Exchange (other than amounts accounted for as interest under the Code) shall not exceed such stated
maximum selling price.

 

SECTION 3.2.        
No Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions hereunder will not result in the duplicative payment of any
amount that may be required under this Agreement, and the provisions hereunder shall be consistently interpreted and applied in accordance
with that intent.

 

    17

     

    

 

SECTION 3.3.        
Pro-Ration of Payments as Between the TRA Holders.

 

(a)               Insufficient
Taxable Income. Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.1(b) to the contrary, if the aggregate potential Covered Tax
benefit of the Corporation as calculated with respect to the Tax Attributes (in each case, without regard to the Taxable Year of
origination) is limited in a particular Taxable Year because the Corporation does not have sufficient actual taxable income, then
the available Covered Tax benefit for the Corporation shall be allocated among the TRA Holders in proportion to the respective Tax
Benefit Payment that would have been payable if the Corporation had sufficient taxable income. For example, if the Corporation had
$200 of aggregate potential Covered Tax benefits with respect to the Tax Attributes in a particular Taxable Year (with $50 of such
Covered Tax benefits Attributable to TRA Holder A and $150 Attributable to TRA Holder B), such that TRA Holder A would have been
entitled to a Tax Benefit Payment of $42.50 and TRA Holder B would have been entitled to a Tax Benefit Payment of $127.50 if the
Corporation had sufficient actual taxable income, and if the Corporation instead had insufficient actual taxable income in such
Taxable Year, such that the Covered Tax benefit was limited to $100, then $25 of the aggregate $100 actual Covered Tax benefit for
the Corporation for such Taxable Year would be allocated to TRA Holder A and $75 would be allocated to TRA Holder B, such that TRA
Holder A would receive a Tax Benefit Payment of $21.25 and TRA Holder B would receive a Tax Benefit Payment of $63.75.

 

(b)              
Late Payments. If for any reason the Corporation is not able to fully satisfy its payment obligations to make all Tax Benefit
Payments due in respect of a particular Taxable Year, then (i) interest at the Default Rate will accrue pursuant to Section 4.1(d)
or Section 5.2, as the case may be, (ii) the Corporation shall pay the available amount of such Tax Benefit Payments (and
any applicable Default Rate Interest) in respect of such Taxable Year to each TRA Holder pro rata in accordance with Section 3.3(a)
and (iii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payments (and any applicable interest
at the Agreed Rate or Default Rate Interest, as the case may be) to all TRA Holders in respect of all prior Taxable Years have been made
in full.

Termination

 

SECTION 4.1.        
Early Termination of Agreement; Acceleration Events.

 

(a)              
Corporation’s Early Termination Right. With the written approval of a majority of the Independent Directors, the Corporation
may terminate this Agreement, as and to the extent provided herein, by paying in full each and every TRA Holder the Early Termination
Payment (along with any applicable Default Rate Interest) due to such TRA Holder; provided, however, that (i) this Agreement shall only
terminate pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) upon the receipt in full of the Early Termination Payment by the TRA Holders and (ii)
the Corporation shall deliver an Early Termination Notice only if it is able to make all required Early Termination Payments under this
Agreement.

 

(b)              
Acceleration upon Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the Early Termination Payment (calculated as if
an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of the Change of Control) shall become due and payable in accordance with Section 4.3
and the Agreement shall terminate, as and to the extent provided herein.

 

    18

     

    

 

(c)               Acceleration
upon Breach of Agreement. In the event of a Material Breach which is not cured by the Corporation within thirty (30) days of its
notice thereof, the Early Termination Payment (calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of the
Material Breach) shall become due and payable in accordance with Section 4.3 and the Agreement shall terminate, as and
to the extent provided herein. Subject to Section 4.1(d), the Corporation’s failure to make a Payment (along with any
applicable Default Rate Interest) within thirty (30) calendar days of the applicable Final Payment Date shall be deemed to
constitute a Material Breach.

 

(d)              
Lack of Funds. To the extent that any Tax Benefit Payment or any other payment required to be made under this Agreement
is not made by the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the relevant Final Payment Date because the Corporation (i) (x) is prohibited
from making such payment under Section 5.1, (y) is not permitted or does not have sufficient cash, in each case, by reason
of restrictions set forth in any agreement governing any Senior Obligations (or any other debt agreements to which the Corporation or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party) or (z) is not permitted to make such payment under applicable law or (ii) does not have, and cannot
take commercially reasonable actions to obtain, sufficient funds to make such payment, such failure will not constitute a Material Breach;
provided that (A) such payment obligation nevertheless will accrue for the benefit of the TRA Holders, (B) the Corporation shall
promptly (and in any event, within 3 Business Days) pay the entirety of the unpaid amount (along with any applicable Default Rate Interest)
once the Corporation is not prohibited from making such payment and the Corporation has sufficient funds to make such payment and (C)
the failure of the Corporation to do so will constitute a Material Breach; provided further that that the interest provisions of
Section 5.2 shall apply to such late payment (unless the Corporation did not make such payment for a reason described in Section
4.1(d)(i), in which case Section 5.2 shall apply, but the Default Rate shall be replaced by the Agreed Rate). It shall be a
Material Breach if the Corporation makes any distribution of cash or other property (other than shares of Class A Common Stock or Class
C Common Stock) to its stockholders or uses cash or other property to repurchase any capital stock of the Corporation (other than Class
B Common Stock repurchased in an Exchange), in each case before all Tax Benefit Payments (along with any applicable Default Rate Interest)
have been paid for any Taxable Year that has ended. The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain sufficient available
funds for the purpose of making Tax Benefit Payments under this Agreement.

 

(e)              
In the case of a termination pursuant to any of the foregoing paragraphs (a), (b) or (c), upon the Corporation’s
payment in full of the Early Termination Payment (along with any applicable Default Rate Interest) to each TRA Holder, the Corporation
shall have no further payment obligations under this Agreement other than with respect to any Tax Benefit Payments (along with any applicable
Default Rate Interest) in respect of any Taxable Year ending prior to the Early Termination Effective Date, and such payment obligations
shall survive the termination of, and be calculated and paid in accordance with, this Agreement. If an Exchange subsequently occurs with
respect to Class A Units for which the Corporation has paid the Early Termination Payment in full, the Corporation shall have no obligations
under this Agreement with respect to such Exchange.

 

SECTION 4.2.        
Early Termination Notice.

 

(a)               If
(i) the Corporation chooses to exercise its termination right under Section 4.1(a) (“Voluntary Early
Termination”), (ii) a Change of Control occurs or (iii) a Material Breach occurs, the Corporation shall, in each case,
deliver to the Representatives a reasonably detailed notice of the Corporation’s decision to exercise such right or the
occurrence of such event, as applicable (an “Early Termination Notice”). In the case of an Early Termination
Notice delivered with respect to a Voluntary Early Termination, the Corporation may withdraw such Early Termination Notice and
rescind its Voluntary Early Termination at any time prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment is paid.

 

    19

     

    

 

(b)              
The Corporation shall deliver a schedule showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment (an “Early
Termination Schedule”) (i) simultaneously with the delivery of an Early Termination Notice or (ii) in the case of a termination
pursuant to Section 4.1(b) or Section 4.1(c), as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of the
Change of Control or Material Breach giving rise to such termination. The date on which such Early Termination Schedule becomes final
in accordance with Section 2.4(a) shall be the “Early Termination Reference Date”.

 

SECTION 4.3.        
Payment upon Early Termination.

 

(a)              
Timing of Payment. By the date that is five (5) Business Days after the Early Termination Reference Date (such date, the
 “Final Payment Date” in respect of the Early Termination Payment), the Corporation shall pay in full to each TRA Holder
an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment applicable to such TRA Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
3.1(a).

 

(b)              
Amount of Payment. The “Early Termination Payment” payable to a TRA Holder pursuant to Section 4.3(a)
shall equal the present value, discounted at the Agreed Rate and determined as of the Early Termination Reference Date, of all Tax Benefit
Payments (other than any Tax Benefit Payments in respect of Taxable Years ending prior to the Early Termination Effective Date) that would
be required to be paid by the Corporation to such TRA Holder, beginning from the Early Termination Effective Date and using the Valuation
Assumptions. For the avoidance of doubt, an Early Termination Payment shall be made to each TRA Holder in accordance with this Agreement,
regardless of whether a TRA Holder has Exchanged all of its Class A Units as of the Early Termination Effective Date.

Subordination and Late Payments

 

SECTION 5.1.        
Subordination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any payment required to be made by
the Corporation to the TRA Holders under this Agreement shall rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to any principal, interest
or other amounts due and payable in respect of any obligations owed in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of the Corporation (“Senior
Obligations”) and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all current or future obligations of the Corporation
that are not Senior Obligations.

 

SECTION 5.2.         Late
Payments by the Corporation. Subject to Section 4.1(d), the amount of any Payment not made to any TRA Holder by the
applicable Final Payment Date shall be payable together with “Default Rate Interest”, calculated at the Default
Rate and accruing on the amount of the unpaid Payment from the applicable Final Payment Date until the date on which the Corporation
makes such Payment to such TRA Holder.

Tax Matters; Consistency; Cooperation

 

SECTION 6.1.        
Participation in the Corporation’s and Milan LLC’s Tax Matters. Except as otherwise provided herein or in Article
VI of the Operating Agreement, the Corporation shall have full responsibility for, and sole discretion over, all tax matters concerning
the Corporation and Milan LLC, including preparing, filing or amending any Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling any issue
pertaining to taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Corporation shall notify the Representatives of, and keep them reasonably
informed with respect to, the portion of any audit by any Taxing Authority of the Corporation, Milan LLC or any of Milan LLC’s Subsidiaries,
the outcome of which is reasonably expected to materially affect the applicable TRA Holders’ rights and obligations under this Agreement
and (ii) the Corporation shall not settle or fail to contest any issue pertaining to Covered Taxes that is reasonably expected to materially
and adversely affect the applicable TRA Holders’ rights and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of the Representatives,
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (iii) each Representative shall have the right to participate
in and to monitor at their own expense (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not to control) any such issue in any such tax audit. If any
Representative fails to respond to any notice with respect to the settlement or other disposition of any such issue within fifteen (15)
days of its receipt of the applicable notice, such Representative shall be deemed to have consented to the proposed settlement or other
disposition. To the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and the Operating Agreement as it relates to tax matters concerning
Covered Taxes and the Corporation and Milan LLC, including preparation, filing or amending of any Tax Return and defending, contesting
or settling any issue pertaining to taxes, this Agreement shall control.

 

SECTION 6.2.        
Consistency. Except as otherwise required by law, all calculations and determinations made hereunder, including any Basis
Adjustments, the Schedules and the determination of any Realized Tax Benefits or Realized Tax Detriments, shall be made in accordance
with the elections, methodologies and positions taken by the Corporation and Milan LLC on their respective Tax Returns. Each TRA Holder
shall prepare its Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement and any related calculations or determinations made
hereunder, including the terms of Section 2.1 and the Schedules provided to each Representative, except as otherwise required
by Law.

 

SECTION 6.3.        
Cooperation.

 

(a)               Each
TRA Holder shall (i) furnish to the Corporation in a timely manner such information, documents and other materials as the
Corporation may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary or appropriate under this
Agreement, preparing any Tax Return of Milan LLC or any of its Subsidiaries or contesting or defending any related audit,
examination or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (ii) make itself available to the Corporation and its representatives to
provide explanations of documents and materials and such other information as the Corporation or its representatives may reasonably
request in connection with any of the matters described in clause (i) above and (iii) reasonably cooperate in connection
with any such matter.

 

    21

     

    

 

(b)              
The Corporation shall reimburse the TRA Holders for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred pursuant

If to any other TRA Holder, to the address
and e-mail address specified on such TRA Holder’s signature page hereto or to the applicable Joinder.

 

Any Party may change its address,
fax number or e-mail address by giving each of the other Parties written notice thereof in the manner set forth above.

 

SECTION 7.2.        
Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered
one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the TRA Holders and delivered
to the other TRA Holders, it being understood that all TRA Holders need not sign the same counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature
page to this Agreement by e-mail transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. The
Parties hereby agree that this Agreement may be executed by way of electronic signatures and that the electronic signature has the same
binding effect as a physical signature. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that this Agreement, or any part thereof, shall
not be denied legal effect, validity or enforceability solely on the ground that it is in the form of an electronic record.

 

SECTION 7.3.        
Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing
in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature
whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 7.4.        
Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any
Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions hereunder shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic
or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination
that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify
this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner.

 

    23

     

    

 

 

SECTION 7.5.        
Assignments; Amendments; Successors; No Waiver.

 

(a)               Assignment.
No TRA Holder may assign, sell, pledge or otherwise alienate or transfer any interest in this Agreement, including the right to
receive any payments under this Agreement, to any Person without such Person executing and delivering a Joinder agreeing to succeed
to the applicable portion of such TRA Holder’s interest in this Agreement and to become a Party for all purposes of this
Agreement (the “Joinder Requirement”); provided, that each Representative’s rights as a
 “Representative” under this Agreement (including its respective approval and consent rights described in Section
6.1) shall not be transferrable or assignable to any Person (other than Permitted Transferees in connection with the transfer of
more than fifty percent (50%) of such Representative’s and its Affiliates’ interest in this Agreement, taken as a
whole). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Member sells, exchanges, distributes or otherwise transfers Class A Units to any
Person (other than the Corporation or Milan LLC) in accordance with the terms of the Operating Agreement, such Member shall have the
option to assign to the transferee of such Class A Units its rights under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Class A
Units; provided that such transferee has satisfied the Joinder Requirement. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Member transfers
Class A Units in accordance with the terms of the Operating Agreement but does not assign to the transferee of such Class A Units
its rights under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Class A Units, such Member shall continue to be entitled to receive
the Tax Benefit Payments arising in respect of a subsequent Exchange of such Class A Units (and any such transferred Class A Units
shall be separately identified, so as to facilitate the determination of payments hereunder). The Corporation may not assign any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Person (other than any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Corporation) without TRA Holder
Approval (and any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void).

 

(b)              
Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is approved in writing by the Corporation
with TRA Holder Approval; provided that amendment of the definition of Change of Control will also require the written approval
of a majority of the Independent Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that LIBOR is no longer a widely recognized benchmark
rate for newly originated loans in the U.S. loan market in U.S. dollars, or replaced with an alternative interest rate pursuant to the
terms of the secured indebtedness of the Corporation, Milan LLC and/or its Subsidiaries or otherwise ceases to be available, the Corporation
may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with the analogous interest rate (and corresponding spread adjustment) that is consistent with
market practice applicable to the secured indebtedness of the Corporation, Milan LLC and/or its Subsidiaries and make any other conforming
changes, as applicable, or such other successor rate mutually acceptable to the Corporation and the Representatives.

 

(c)              
Successors. Except as provided in Section 7.5(a), all of the terms and provisions hereunder shall be binding upon,
and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators
and legal representatives. The Corporation shall require and cause any direct or indirect successor (whether by equity purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Corporation, by written agreement, expressly
to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform
if no such succession had taken place.

 

    24

     

    

 

(d)              
 Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be waived unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the Party against whom
the waiver is to be effective. 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.

 

(e)              
Spousal Consent. In connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any TRA Holder who is a natural person
will deliver to the Corporation an executed consent from such TRA Holder’s spouse (if any) in the form of Exhibit B-1 attached hereto
or a TRA Holder’s spouse confirmation of separate property in the form of Exhibit B-2 attached hereto. If, at any time subsequent
to the date of this Agreement such TRA Holder becomes legally married (whether in the first instance or to a different spouse), such TRA
Holder shall cause his or her spouse to execute and deliver to the Corporation a consent in the form of Exhibit B-1 or Exhibit B-2 attached
hereto. Such TRA Holder’s non-delivery to the Corporation of an executed consent in the form of Exhibit B-1 or Exhibit B-2 at any
time shall constitute such TRA Holder’s continuing representation and warranty that such TRA Holder is not legally married as of
such date.

 

SECTION 7.6.        
Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.

 

SECTION 7.7.        
Resolution of Disputes; Governing Law.

 

(a)              
Except for Reconciliation Disputes subject to Section 7.8, any and all disputes which cannot be settled after good
faith negotiation within 30 calendar days, including any ancillary claims of any Party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with
the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope
and enforceability of this Section 7.7 or Section 7.8) (each, a “Dispute”) shall be finally
resolved by arbitration in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution Rules for Non-Administered
Arbitration by the majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators, of which the Corporation shall designate one arbitrator and the TRA
Holders that are party to such Dispute shall designate one arbitrator, in each case in accordance with the “screened” appointment
procedure provided in Resolution Rule 5.4. The arbitration shall be governed by the federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et
seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of
the arbitration shall be New York City, New York.

 

(b)               Notwithstanding
the provisions of paragraph (a) above, any Party may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent
jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling another Party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an
arbitration hereunder or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Party (i)
expressly consents to the application of paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 7.7 to any such action or
proceeding and (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions hereunder would be
difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.7 shall not
apply to the Reconciliation Disputes to be settled in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.8.

 

    25

     

    

 

(c)              
This Agreement shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the internal Laws of
the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws rules thereof. Subject to this Section 7.7 and Section 7.8,
the Parties agree that any suit or proceeding in connection with, arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be instituted only
in a Delaware state court (or U.S. federal court) located in Wilmington, Delaware, and the Parties, for the purpose of any such suit or
proceeding, irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any such suit or proceeding.
Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

 

(d)              
Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, (i) any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred
to in Section 7.7(b) or 7.7(c) and (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action
or proceeding in any such court.

 

(e)              
Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process by means of notice in the manner provided for in Section 7.1.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

 

(f)               
WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND WITH THE ADVICE OF ITS COUNSEL, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT,
ACTION OR PROCEEDING, WHETHER A CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, OR THIRD PARTY CLAIM, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

 

SECTION 7.8.        
Reconciliation Procedures.

 

(a)               In
the event that the Corporation and any Representative (the “Objecting Party”) are unable to resolve a
disagreement with respect to a Schedule prepared in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.4 or Section 4.2,
as applicable, within the relevant time period designated in this Agreement (a “Reconciliation Dispute”), the
procedures described in this paragraph (the “Reconciliation Procedures”) will apply. The Objecting Party and the
Corporation shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days of the commencement of a Reconciliation Dispute, mutually select a
nationally recognized expert in the particular area of disagreement (the “Expert”) and submit the Reconciliation
Dispute to such Expert for determination. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally recognized accounting firm, and
unless the Corporation and the Objecting Party agree otherwise, the Expert (and its employing firm) shall not have any material
relationship with the Corporation or such Objecting Party or other actual or potential conflict of interest. If the Corporation and
the Objecting Party are unable to agree on an Expert within such fifteen (15) calendar-day time period, the selection of an Expert
shall be treated as a Dispute subject to Section 7.7 and an arbitration panel shall pick an Expert from a nationally
recognized accounting firm that does not have any material relationship with the applicable parties or other actual or potential
conflict of interest. The Expert shall resolve any matter relating to (i) an Attribute Schedule, Early Termination Schedule or an
amendment to either within thirty (30) calendar days and (ii) 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 by the date prescribed by this Agreement and such Tax Return may be filed as prepared by
the Corporation, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute,
and its determinations pursuant to this Section 7.8(a) shall be binding on the applicable Parties and may be entered and
enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any dispute as to whether a dispute is a Reconciliation Dispute within the
meaning of this Section 7.8 or a Dispute within the meaning of Section 7.7 shall be decided and resolved as
a Dispute subject to the procedures set forth in Section 7.7.

 

    26

     

    

 

(b)              
The costs and expenses relating to the engagement of such Expert or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by the Corporation except
as provided in the next sentence. The Corporation and the Objecting Party shall bear their own costs and expenses of such proceeding,
unless (i) the Expert entirely adopts the position of the Objecting Party, in which case the Corporation shall reimburse the Objecting
Party for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert entirely adopts the
Corporation’s position, in which case the Objecting Party shall reimburse the Corporation for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
costs and expenses in such proceeding.

 

SECTION 7.9.         Withholding.
The Corporation and its Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment that is payable to any TRA Holder
pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Corporation is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such
payment by applicable Law. As soon as reasonably practicable prior to deducting and withholding from any payment, the Corporation
shall notify the relevant TRA Holder and reasonably cooperate in good faith with the TRA Holder to reduce or mitigate any such
deduction or withholding. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority
by the Corporation, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid by
the Corporation to the relevant TRA Holder in respect of whom the deduction and withholding was made. Each TRA Holder shall promptly
provide the Corporation with any applicable tax forms and certifications reasonably requested by the Corporation in connection with
determining whether any such deductions and withholdings are required by applicable Law.

 

    27

     

    

 

SECTION 7.10.    
Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets.

 

(a)              
If the Corporation is or becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a federal consolidated
income Tax Return, (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to the group as a whole and (ii) 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 Corporation or any member of the Milan LLC Group transfers one or more Reference Assets to a Person treated as a corporation
for U.S. federal income tax purposes (with which, in the case of the Corporation, the Corporation does not file a consolidated Tax Return
pursuant to Section 1501 of the Code), such transferor, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Payment due hereunder, shall be
treated as having disposed of such asset in a fully taxable transaction on the date of such transfer. The consideration deemed to be received
by the Corporation or Milan LLC Group member, as the applicable transferor, shall be equal to the fair market value of the transferred
asset (without regard to any encumbrances thereon) or, if greater, the amount of nonrecourse debt to which such asset is subject in the
case of a transfer of an encumbered asset. For purposes of this Section 7.10, a transfer of a partnership interest shall be
treated as a transfer of the transferring partner’s applicable share of each of the assets and liabilities of that partnership.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if the Corporation or any member of a group described in Section 7.10(a)
transfers its assets pursuant to a transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” (within the meaning of Section 368(a)
of the Code) in which such entity does not survive or pursuant to any other transaction to which Section 381(a) of the Code applies (other
than any such reorganization or any such other transaction, in each case, pursuant to which such entity transfers assets to a corporation
with which the Corporation or any member of the group described in Section 7.10(a) (other than any such member being transferred
in such reorganization or other transaction) does not file a consolidated Tax Return pursuant to Section 1501 of the Code), the transfer
will not cause such entity to be treated as having transferred any assets to a corporation (or a Person classified as a corporation for
U.S. federal income tax purposes) pursuant to this Section 7.10(b) so long as the relevant successor is bound by the provisions
of this Agreement.

 

SECTION 7.11.     Confidentiality.
Each TRA Holder and each of its respective assignees acknowledges and agrees that the information of the Corporation is confidential
and, except in the course of performing any duties as necessary for the Corporation 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 other Person any confidential information, acquired pursuant to this Agreement, of the Corporation or its controlled Affiliates
or their successors. This Section 7.11 shall not apply to (i) any information that has been made publicly available by
the Corporation or any of its controlled Affiliates, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of any TRA Holder in
violation of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community, (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent
necessary for a TRA Holder to prosecute or defend claims arising under or relating to this Agreement and (iii) the disclosure of
information to the extent necessary for a TRA Holder 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 Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the TRA Holders and each of their assignees (and each employee,
representative or other agent of the TRA Holders or their assignees, as applicable) may disclose at their discretion to any and all
Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Corporation, the TRA Holders and any of their
transactions, and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the TRA Holders
relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. If a TRA Holder or an assignee commits, or threatens to commit, a breach of any of
the provisions of this Section 7.11, the Corporation shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 7.11
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 will cause irreparable injury to the
Corporation or any of its controlled Affiliates and that money damages alone will 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.

 

    28

     

    

 

SECTION 7.12.    
Change in Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in Law,
a TRA Holder 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 such TRA Holder (or direct or indirect equity holders in such TRA Holder) in connection with
any Exchange to be treated as ordinary income (other than with respect to assets described in Section 751(a) of the Code) 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 Holder or any direct or indirect owner of such TRA Holder, then, at the written election of such TRA Holder
in its sole discretion (in an instrument signed by such TRA Holder and delivered to the Corporation) and to the extent specified therein
by such TRA Holder, this Agreement shall cease to have further effect and shall not apply to an Exchange occurring after a date specified
by such TRA Holder, or may be amended in a manner reasonably determined by such TRA Holder; provided that such amendment shall
not result in an increase in any payments owed by the Corporation 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 7.13.     Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the interest paid or agreed to be paid hereunder
with respect to amounts due to any TRA Holder hereunder shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by
applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any TRA Holder shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the
Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the applicable payment (but in each case exclusive of any component thereof
comprising interest) or, if it exceeds such unpaid non-interest amount, refunded to the Corporation. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged or received by any TRA Holder exceeds the Maximum Rate, such TRA Holder may, to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than
interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof or (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or
unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the payment obligations owed by the Corporation to
such TRA Holder hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Parties to conform strictly to any applicable
usury Laws.

 

    29

     

    

 

SECTION 7.14.    
Independent Nature of Rights and Obligations. The rights and obligations of each TRA Holder hereunder are several and not
joint with the rights and obligations of any other Person. A TRA Holder shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the
obligations of any other Person hereunder, nor shall a TRA Holder have the right to enforce the rights or obligations of any other Person
hereunder (other than obligations of the Corporation). The obligations of a TRA Holder hereunder are solely for the benefit of, and shall
be enforceable solely by, the Corporation. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered in connection herewith,
and no action taken by any TRA Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the TRA Holders acting as a partnership,
association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the TRA Holders are in any way acting in concert
or as a group with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Milan
Laser Inc.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

 

Non-employee members of the
board of directors (the “Board”) of Milan Laser Inc. (the “Company”), other than
those employed by Leonard Green & Partners, L.P. or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, shall be eligible to receive cash
and equity compensation as set forth in this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (this “Policy”). The
cash and equity compensation described in this Policy shall be paid or be made, as applicable, automatically and without further action
of the Board, to each member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company (each, a “Non-Employee
Director”) who may be eligible to receive such cash or equity compensation, unless such Non-Employee Director declines
the receipt of such cash or equity compensation by written notice to the Company. This Policy shall become effective after the effectiveness
of the Company’s Form S-1 Registration (the “Effective Date”) and shall remain in effect until it
is revised or rescinded by further action of the Board. This Policy may be amended, modified or terminated by the Board at any time in
its sole discretion. The terms and conditions of this Policy shall supersede any prior cash and/or equity compensation arrangements for
service as a member of the Board between the Company and any of its Non-Employee Directors and between any subsidiary of the Company
and any of its non-employee directors.

 

1.             Cash
Compensation.

 

(a)           Annual
Retainers. Each Non-Employee Director shall receive an annual retainer of $70,000 for service on the Board.

 

(b)           Additional
Annual Retainers. In addition, a Non-Employee Director shall receive the following annual retainers:

 

(i)            Lead
Independent Director of the Board. A Non-Employee Director serving as Lead Independent Directors of the Board shall receive an additional
annual retainer of $20,000 for such service.

 

(ii)           Audit
Committee. A Non-Employee Director serving as Chairperson of the Audit Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer of $20,000
for such service.

 

(iii)          Compensation
Committee. A Non-Employee Director serving as Chairperson of the Compensation Committee shall receive an additional annual retainer
of $15,000 for such service.

 

(iv)          Corporate
Governance Committee. A Non-Employee Director serving as Chairperson of the Corporate Governance Committee shall receive an additional
annual retainer of $10,000 for such service.

 

    

     

    

 

(c)           Payment
of Retainers. The annual retainers described in Sections 1(a) and 1(b) shall be earned on a quarterly basis based on a
calendar quarter and shall be paid by the Company in arrears not later than the fifteenth day following the end of each calendar quarter.
In the event a Non-Employee Director does not serve as a Non-Employee Director, or in the applicable positions described in Section 1(b),
for an entire calendar quarter, such Non-Employee Director shall receive a prorated portion of the retainer(s) otherwise payable
to such Non-Employee Director for such calendar quarter pursuant to Sections 1(a) and 1(b), with such prorated portion determined
by multiplying such otherwise payable retainer(s) by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during which the Non-Employee
Director serves as a Non-Employee Director or in the applicable positions described in Section 1(b) during the applicable calendar
quarter and the denominator of which is the number of days in the applicable calendar quarter.

 

2.             Equity
Compensation. Non-Employee Directors shall be granted the equity awards described below. The awards described below shall be granted
under and shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the Company’s 2021 Incentive Award Plan or any other applicable Company
equity incentive plan then-maintained by the Company (such plan, as may be amended from time to time, the “Equity Plan”)
and shall be granted subject to the execution and delivery of award agreements, including attached exhibits, in substantially the forms
previously approved by the Board. All applicable terms of the Equity Plan apply to this Policy as if fully set forth herein, and all
equity grants hereunder are subject in all respects to the terms of the Equity Plan.

 

(a)           IPO
Awards. Each Non-Employee Director who (i) serves on the Board as of the date the IPO price of the shares of the Company’s
common stock is established in connection with the Company’s IPO (the “Pricing Date”) and (ii) will
continue to serve as a Non-Employee Director immediately following the effectiveness of the Form S-8 Registration Statement, shall
be automatically granted a number of restricted stock units equal to the ratio of (x) the IPO Award Value (as defined below) to
(y) the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the Pricing Date. For purposes of this Policy, “IPO
Award Value” means the product of (i) $80,000 and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
in the period beginning on the Pricing Date and ending on the next annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders (an “Annual
Meeting”) and the denominator of which is 365 (with the number of shares of common stock underlying each such award subject
to adjustment as provided in the Equity Plan). The awards described in this Section 2(a) shall be referred to herein as the
 “IPO Awards”).

 

(b)           Annual
Awards. Each Non-Employee Director who (i) serves on the Board as of the date of any Annual Meeting after the Effective Date
and (ii) will continue to serve as a Non-Employee Director immediately following such Annual Meeting, shall be automatically granted,
on the date of such Annual Meeting, an award of restricted stock units that has an aggregate fair value on the date of grant of $80,000
(as determined in accordance with ASC 718 and subject to adjustment as provided in the Equity Plan). The awards described in this Section 2(b) shall
be referred to as the “Annual Awards.” For the avoidance of doubt, a Non-Employee Director elected for the
first time to the Board at an Annual Meeting shall receive only an Annual Award in connection with such election, and shall not receive
any Initial Award on the date of such Annual Meeting as well.

 

    2

     

    

 

(c)           Initial
Awards. Except as otherwise determined by the Board, each Non-Employee Director who is initially elected or appointed to the Board
after the Pricing Date on any date other than the date of an Annual Meeting shall be automatically granted, on the date of such Non-Employee
Director’s initial election or appointment (such Non-Employee Director’s “Start Date”), an award
of restricted stock units that has an aggregate fair value on the date of grant equal to the product of (i) $80,000 (as determined
in accordance with ASC 718) and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is (x) 365 minus (y) the number of days in the
period beginning on the date of the Annual Meeting immediately preceding such Non-Employee Director’s Start Date (or, if no such
Annual Meeting has occurred, the effective date of the Company’s IPO) and ending on such Non-Employee Director’s Start Date
and the denominator of which is 365 (with the number of shares of common stock underlying each such award subject to adjustment as provided
in the Equity Plan). The awards described in this Section 2(c) shall be referred to as “Initial Awards.”
For the avoidance of doubt, no Non-Employee Director shall be granted more than one Initial Award.

 

(d)           Termination
of Employment of Employee Directors. Members of the Board who are employees of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company
who subsequently terminate their employment with the Company and any parent or subsidiary of the Company and remain on the Board will
not receive an Initial Award pursuant to Section 2(c) above, but to the extent that they are otherwise eligible, will be eligible
to receive, after termination from employment with the Company and any parent or subsidiary of the Company, Annual Awards as described
in Section 2(b) above.

 

(e)           Vesting
of Awards Granted to Non-Employee Directors. IPO Awards, Annual Awards and Initial Awards shall vest on the earlier of (i) the
day immediately preceding the date of the first Annual Meeting following the date of grant and (ii) the first anniversary of the
date of grant, subject to the Non-Employee Director continuing in service on the Board through the applicable vesting date. No portion
of an IPO Award, Annual Award or Initial Award that is unvested at the time of a Non-Employee Director’s termination of service
on the Board shall become vested thereafter. All of a Non-Employee Director’s IPO Awards, Annual Awards and Initial Awards shall
vest in full immediately prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the Equity Plan), to the extent outstanding at
such time.
