 (i) to execute and
deliver the Transaction Documents and any documents or certificates required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, and to agree to such amendments or modifications to this Agreement, any of the Transaction

or Class H Interests pursuant to the terms of the Acquiror LP Agreement, (B) following the Closing, to approve on behalf of Holders any amendment or waiver to the Acquiror LP Agreement or (C) to vote or dispose of, or to direct the voting

any error in judgment or other act or omission of the Holders’ Representative pursuant to such advice shall in no event subject the Holders’ Representative to liability to the Holders. The Holders shall severally and not jointly indemnify
the Holders’ Representative and any other Holder serving on an advisory committee formed by the Holders’ Representative in connection with the performance of its responsibilities and hold the Holders’ Representative and any such
Holder harmless against any Losses incurred without willful misconduct on the part of the Holders’ Representative arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its or his duties under this Agreement. 

(d) The Holders’ Representative may resign as the Holders’ Representative hereunder at any time and for any reason, effective upon a

the responsibilities of the Holders’ Representative hereunder or resigns, in each case, without so appointing a replacement Holders’ Representative, a substitute Holders’ Representative shall be appointed no later than ten
(10) Business Days after 

  
 24 

 
such resignation by the Holders representing a majority of the Management Holdings Management Units (if the need for the Holders to appoint a substitute representative arises prior to the
Closing) or by the Holders representing a majority of the outstanding Class E Units issued to all Holders at the Closing (if the need for the Holders to appoint a substitute representative arises on or after the Closing). The resigning Holders’
Representative or the Holders appointing such new representative shall provide notice to the Acquiror of the occurrence of the appointment of a new Holders’ Representative pursuant to this Section 2.7(d). 

(e) Each Holder agrees with the Holders’ Representative to bear, and promptly upon request reimburse the Holders’ Representative,

pursuant to this sentence shall be limited to the value of vested and exchangeable Class E Units (other than any Exchange Restricted Units or Individual Exchange Restricted Units) held by such Holder (“Available Class E Units”), or
to the proceeds of any disposition of Available Class E Units (or of Parent Common Stock issued in respect thereof).
 Section 2.8
Working Capital and Excess Working Capital. 
 (a) Immediately prior to the Closing, the Transferred Companies may, at the direction
of the Transferor, effect a distribution of cash (an “Excess Working Capital Distribution”) equal to the lesser of (i) Excess Working Capital and (ii) such amount as would result in Net Working Capital at Closing being
equal to Agreed Working Capital plus, if not less than zero, Estimated Net Income. 
 (b) If Net Working Capital, as reflected on the
Signing Balance Sheet, plus Estimated Net Income minus Estimated Transferor Expenses minus any Excess Working Capital Distribution is less than Agreed Working Capital plus, if not less than zero, Estimated Net Income,
then the absolute value of such difference is the “Deficit Amount”. If there is a Deficit Amount, then the number of Class E Units issued to the Transferor and distributed to Holding, Holding II and the Holders as consideration
pursuant to Section 2.2 at the Closing shall be reduced by the number of Class E Units equal to the Deficit Amount divided by the Market Price as of the Closing Date, pro rata in accordance with the number of Class E Units Holding,
Holding II, or such Holder would have received in the liquidating distributions of the Transferor and Management Holdings at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.2, and Annex A shall be amended accordingly. 

(c) The Transferor shall prepare in good faith and deliver to the Acquiror three (3) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date
(i) an estimated unaudited statement of income of the Transferred Companies for the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, which statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applying the Accounting
Principles (the “Estimated Income Statement”), and (ii) a statement that sets forth the Transferor’s calculation of the Deficit Amount (if any) and the components thereof, each determined in accordance with this Agreement.

  
 25 

 (d) As promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, but no later than ninety (90) days
thereafter, the Acquiror shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Holding and the Holders’ Representative (i) the Closing Balance Sheet and a statement of Net Working Capital derived therefrom (as determined pursuant to this
Section 2.8, the “Closing Date Net Working Capital”), (ii) the Closing Date Income Statement and the Final Net Income derived therefrom and (iii) a statement that sets forth the Acquiror’s calculation of
the Final Deficit Amount (if any) and the components thereof, each determined in accordance with this Agreement. Holding and the Holders’ Representative shall have sixty (60) days following delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the
Closing Date Income Statement during which to notify the Acquiror in writing (the “Notice of Objection”) of any objections to the calculation of the Final Deficit Amount (or any component thereof), setting forth in reasonable detail
the basis of their objections. In reviewing the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Date Income Statement, each of Holding and the Holders’ Representative shall be entitled to reasonable access to all relevant books, records and personnel of the
Transferred Companies. If Holding and the Holders’ Representative fail to deliver a Notice of Objection in accordance with this Section 2.8(d), the Acquiror’s calculation of the Final Deficit Amount delivered in accordance with
this Section 2.8 shall be conclusive and binding. If Holding and the Holders’ Representative submit a Notice of Objection, then (i) for ten (10) Business Days after the date upon which the Acquiror receives the Notice of
Objection, the Acquiror, on the one hand, and Holding and the Holders’ Representative, on the other hand, will each use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the calculation of the Final Deficit Amount and (ii) failing such
agreement within ten (10) Business Days of such notice, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with Section 2.8(e). 

(e) If the Acquiror, on the one hand, and Holding and the Holders’ Representative, on the other hand, have not agreed on the Final
Deficit Amount within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of a Notice of Objection, then the Acquiror, Holding and the Holders’ Representative, acting jointly, shall refer the matter for resolution to an international accounting firm
reasonably acceptable to the Acquiror, Holding and the Holders’ Representative and which accounting firm is not aware of any conflict of interest, whether arising out of any prior representation of or services provided to the Acquiror, Holding
or the Holders’ Represntative (the “Accounting Expert”) and shall deliver notice of such referral to the other parties hereto. The Accounting Expert shall act as an expert and not an arbitrator. Within ten (10) Business
Days of the selection of the Accounting Expert, the Acquiror, on the one hand, and Holding and the Holders’ Representative, on the other hand, shall each deliver to the other party and to the Accounting Expert a notice setting forth in
reasonable detail their objections and their calculations of the Final Deficit Amount (and the components thereof). The parties shall instruct the Accounting Expert to consider only those items as to which Holding and the Holders’
Representative have disagreed pursuant to a Notice of Objection and for which the Acquiror, on the one hand, and Holding and the Holders’ Representative, on the other hand, have not resolved their disagreement. Within fifteen (15) Business
Days after receipt thereof, the Accounting Expert shall issue to the parties its final determination of the Final Deficit Amount (and the components thereof), and provide a written description of the basis for such determination; provided,
that if the Accounting Expert requests a hearing before making a determination, such hearing shall be held within twenty (20) Business Days of the parties’ delivery of their respective calculation notices and the determination of the Final
Deficit Amount (and the components thereof), shall be made within ten (10) Business Days after such hearing. The Accounting Expert’s determination shall be final and binding on the parties hereto.

  
 26 

 
The fees and expenses of the Accounting Expert shall be paid in accordance with the percentage of the disputed amounts awarded to the Acquiror, on the one hand, and Holding and the Holders, on
the other hand, as a result of the Accounting Expert’s decision. Each party shall bear the costs of its own counsel, witnesses (if any) and employees incurred in connection with the foregoing procedures. 

(f) True-Up. If Net Working Capital, as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet, plus Final Net Income minus Final
Transferor Expenses minus any Excess Working Capital Distribution is less than Agreed Working Capital plus, if not less than zero, Final Net Income, then the absolute value of such difference is the “Final Deficit
Amount” (in each case, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.8). For the purpose of the calculations below in (i) and (ii), if there were no Deficit Amount pursuant to Section 2.8(b), the
Deficit Amount shall be zero, and if there were no Final Deficit Amount pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Final Deficit Amount shall be zero. 

(i) If the Deficit Amount minus the Final Deficit Amount is a positive number, then the Acquiror shall issue to Holding,
Holding II, and the Holders the number of Class E Units equal to the amount of such excess divided by the Market Price as of the date of the Closing Balance Sheet, pro rata in accordance with the number of Class E Units Holding, Holding II
or such Holder received at the Closing, as reflected in Annex A (as amended as of the Closing); and 
 (ii) If the Deficit
Amount minus the Final Deficit Amount is a negative number, then the amount of such deficit shall be considered a finally determined claim in favor of the Acquiror for the purposes of Article X and the procedures of
Section 10.7 shall apply to satisfy such claim (with the Market Price for such purpose as of the date of the Closing Balance Sheet).

expected to have any liability or obligation, other than practices or policies providing for incidental fringe benefits that are de minimis to the service provider and not, in the aggregate, material to the Transferred Companies
(collectively, the “Transferor Plans”), but not including Social Security, workers compensation or other similar government-mandated programs. Schedule 3.18(a) of the Transferor Parties Disclosure
Schedule separately identifies each Transferor Plan that is maintained primarily for the benefit of employees outside of the United States. 

(b) The Transferor and all Transferred Companies have provided to the Acquiror prior to the date hereof accurate and complete copies, as
applicable, of (i) the most recent determination letter or opinion received from the IRS with respect to each 

  
 39 

 
Transferor Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (or if no such letter has been issued for such Transferor Plan, the pending application, if any, to the IRS
requesting such letter), or other similar required approval of a Governmental Authority; (ii) the most recent Form 5500, or other similar filings required under applicable Law, and financial statements for the Transferor Plans, if applicable;
(iii) a copy of each Transferor Plan (including all amendments thereto); (iv) a copy of the most recent summary plan description (or other similar document), together with each summary of material modifications, required under ERISA or
otherwise under applicable Law with respect to such Transferor Plan; (v) if the Transferor Plan is intended to be funded through a trust or any third party funding vehicle, such as an insurance contract, a copy of the trust or other funding
agreement (including all amendments thereto) and the latest financial statements thereof; (vi) all Contracts relating to Transferor Plans with respect to which the Transferor or any Transferred Company may have any obligation or liability,
including, without limitation, administration agreements, insurance agreements, investment management agreements, subscription and participation agreements and record keeping agreements; and (vii) a copy of all material documents and
correspondence relating to the Transferor Plans received from or provided to the Department of Labor or the IRS during the past three (3) years and any applicable tax determination letters. 

(c) Each Transferred Company has performed and complied in all material respects with all of its obligations under or with respect to the
Transferor Plans. Such Transferor Plans comply in all material respects with applicable Law (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, with respect to Transferor Plans subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, ERISA and the Code). Each
Transferor Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter or opinion letter from the IRS or has applied to the IRS for such favorable determination letter, and there are no
circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in revocation of any such favorable determination letter. Any arrangement that would have been disclosed on Schedule 3.18(a) of the Transferor Parties Disclosure Schedule but

routine claims for benefits in accordance with such Transferor Plan’s claims procedures and that have not resulted in any pending or threatened litigation). There are no audits, inquiries or examinations actively in process or, to the
Transferor’s Knowledge, pending or threatened by the IRS, the Department of Labor or any other Governmental Authority with respect to any Transferor Plan. Neither the Transferor nor any Transferred Company has incurred any material tax or
liability under either Section 4975 or 4980F of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA, in each case that has not been satisfied as of the date hereof or has incurred any such liability (whether or not satisfied) in the three
(3) year period prior to the Closing, or could reasonably expect to incur any such material liability (assuming for purposes of Section 4975 of the Code that the taxable period of any such transaction expired as of the Closing Date), as a
result of any actions or omission of the Transferor or any Transferred Company with respect to any Transferor Plan. 

  
 40 

 (e) No Transferor Plan is, and none of the Transferor or Transferred Companies nor any entity
aggregated with the Transferor or a Transferred Company under Section 414 of the Code or Section 4001 of ERISA maintains, contributes to, has any liability or obligation under or has at any time in the six (6) year period prior to the

employer plan” (within the meaning of Section 413(c) of the Code), (iii) any single employer plan or other pension plan that is subject to Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code or (iv) a
“multiple employer welfare arrangement” (as defined in Section 3(40)(A) of ERISA). Except as set forth on Schedule 3.18(e) of the Transferor Parties Disclosure Schedule, neither the Transferor nor the Transferred Companies

of this Section 3.18(e), “connected” and “associate” have the meanings given to them in sections 435 and 249 of the Insolvency Act 1986 of England and Wales. 

(f) With respect to any Transferor Plan for which a separate fund of assets is or is required to be maintained, full and timely payment has
been made of all amounts required of the Transferor or a Transferred Company, under the terms of each such Transferor Plan or applicable Law, as applied through the date hereof and the Closing Date, and all contributions and premium payments for any
period ending on or before the date hereof and the Closing Date that are an obligation of the Transferor or any Transferred Company and not yet due have either been made by the Transferor or a Transferred Company, or have been accrued on the
Financial Statements. There are no loans by the Transferor or any Transferred Company to any of their current or former employees, other than loans under any Transferor Plan intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code and routine
business expense advances made in the ordinary course of business. 
 (g) With respect to each Transferor Plan that is an employee welfare
benefit plan (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA), or a Transferor Plan providing for similar benefits under applicable Law, all claims incurred by the Transferor or any Transferred Company are (i) insured pursuant to a contract
of insurance whereby the insurance company bears any risk of loss with respect to such claims or (ii) reflected as a liability or accrued for on the Financial Statements. 

(h) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.18(h)(i) of the Transferor Parties Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution and delivery
of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions (either alone or in combination with another event that may occur in contemplation of or in connection with the Transactions) is reasonably expected to (A) entitle any employee,
consultant or director to any payment (including severance pay or similar compensation), any cancellation of indebtedness or any increase in compensation, (B) result in the acceleration of payment or vesting under any Transferor Plan or
(C) result in any increase in benefits payable under any Transferor Plan. Schedule 3.18(h)(ii) of the Transferor Parties Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of each Transferor Plan than contains a change in control provision.

  
 41 

 (i) The Transactions (including, without limitation, as a result of any termination of employment
prior to or following the Closing) will not directly or indirectly result in the payment of any amount that could, individually or in combination with any other such payment, constitute an “excess parachute payment” as defined in
Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code. 
 (j) Neither the Transferor nor the Transferred Companies has announced or entered into any plan or
binding commitment to create or implement any new Transferor Plan or amend or modify any Transferor Plan. Neither the Transferor nor any Transferred Company has made any commitments (written, oral or otherwise) to any officer, employee, former
employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Transferor or any Transferred Company with respect to compensation, promotion, retention, termination, severance or similar matters in connection with the Transaction or otherwise, other than as
set forth in any Transferor Plan made available to the Acquiror. There are no payments of compensation due but unpaid to any employee of any of the Transferred Companies other than accrued in the ordinary course of business or other than pursuant to
Transferor Plans, and no Transferred Company is liable for any payments of compensation (including severance) to any former employee of the Transferor or a Transferred Company other than amounts earned but not yet due under the terms of any

 (d)
Except (i) as disclosed in the Acquiror Disclosure Schedule, (ii) for Liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business since March 31, 2014, and (iii) for undisclosed Liabilities which would not, individually or in the

Section 7.3 Pre-Closing Access and Information. 

(a) From the date hereof until the Closing Date, subject to any applicable Law and subject to any applicable privileges (including the
attorney-client privilege) and contractual confidentiality obligations, upon reasonable prior written notice, the Transferor shall, and shall cause each Transferred Company and their respective Representatives to, (i) afford the Representatives

Article X) or the use, storage or handling of any personally identifiable information relating to employees or customers of any of the Transferred Companies to which the Acquiror or any of its Affiliates or Representatives is afforded
access pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Transferor and the Transferred Companies shall not be required to provide access or to disclose information which is prohibited under applicable Law or any Contract
to which the Transferor or any Transferred Company is a party or that would cause the Transferor or any Transferred Company to waive its attorney-client privilege; provided, that the Transferor shall, and shall cause the Transferred Companies
to, cooperate in any reasonable efforts and requests for waivers that would enable otherwise required disclosure to the Acquiror to occur without so jeopardizing privilege or contravening such Law or Contract.

Transferor Party or any Holder for any tax period beginning on or before the Closing Date or the defense of any such Tax Return in any examination, audit, dispute or proceeding, or the control of, or participation in, any Tax Claim by a Tax
Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.14(c). The Transferor Parties shall reimburse the Acquiror promptly for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Acquiror and its Affiliates in complying with any request by or on
behalf of such Transferor Party or its Affiliates or Representatives in connection with this Section 7.4(a).

party’s benefit and cannot be met prior to the Termination Date. No notice pursuant to this Section 7.8, nor any failure to provide such notice, shall be considered for purposes of Article VIII or IX, nor shall
any such notice or failure to provide such notice create or waive any claim for indemnification pursuant to Article X.

information, (v) any such information was available to such party prior to the time of disclosure by or on behalf of the other party or (vi) any such information was independently developed by such party or its Representatives without

Tax Return for the Acquiror’s review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). 
 (ii) The
Acquiror shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns not described in Section 7.14(b)(i) that are required to be filed by or with respect to the Transferred Companies. In the case of any Tax

on a periodic basis and are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Signing Date shall (A) in the case of any Taxes other than the Taxes based upon or related to
income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Signing Date and the denominator of which is the
number of days in the entire taxable period, and (B) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on the Signing Date.

Indemnifying Party”) in writing within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt by the Acquiror or the Transferred Companies of any written notice of any examination, audit, dispute or proceeding regarding any Taxes or Tax Return (a
“Tax Claim”), which notice shall specify the amount of the estimated amount of such Tax Claim, with respect to which the Tax Indemnifying Party may have an indemnification obligation; provided, however, that the
failure to provide such notice shall not release the Tax Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations under this Section 7.14, except to the extent that the Tax Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. 

(ii) The Tax Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control, at its sole cost and expense, any Tax Claim to the extent such Tax Claim is
solely in respect of (x) Transferor Taxes, and (y) any taxable period ending on or before the Signing Date and (z) Specified Amounts; provided that (A) the Tax Indemnifying Party shall provide the Acquiror with notice of
its intention to assume the defense of any such Tax Claim and shall keep the Acquiror fully and timely informed with respect to the commencement, status and nature of any such Tax Claim, (B) the Acquiror, at its sole cost and expense, shall
have the right to participate in any such Tax Claim, (C) the Tax Indemnifying Party shall not settle or otherwise resolve any portion of such Tax Claim that is reasonably likely to adversely affect the Tax liability of the Transferred Companies

is not conducting the defense of any such Tax Claim actively and diligently, the Acquiror may assume control of such Tax Claim and defend such Tax Claim in a manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Tax Claim, after giving notice
thereof to the Tax Indemnifying Party. The Acquiror shall not settle any claim that could result in an indemnification obligation under Section 7.14(a) without the consent of Holding (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed). 
 (iii) The Acquiror shall be entitled to control, at its sole cost and expense, any Tax Claim not described in

its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any 

  
 74 

 
such Tax Claim and (B) the Acquiror shall not settle or otherwise resolve any such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of Holding (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed).

responsible to pay the tax its share of such tax at least three (3) Business Days before the tax payment due date). Both parties will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation as required by Law.

Characterization. The parties agree to treat and report the contribution of the ISI Interests to the Acquiror in exchange for the Securities and the distribution by the Transferor of Securities in liquidation of the Transferor pursuant to this
Agreement as an “assets over” merger, as such term is given meaning in Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(3)(i), of the Transferor with and into the Acquiror with the Acquiror as the surviving partnership, for all federal, state
and local income Tax purposes, in each case except as required by a change in the applicable Law after the date hereof. The parties hereto shall (A) not take any position on any U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax Return that is contrary
to this Section 7.14(f), except as required by a change in the applicable Law after the date hereof, and (B) cooperate fully with respect to the reporting and defense of the position set forth in this Section 7.14(f).

respect of such Specified Amounts.

Section 4.16 inclusive. 
 (d) From and after the Closing and subject to this Article X, Holding shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless the Acquiror Indemnified Parties against, and reimburse the Acquiror Indemnified Parties for, any Losses that any of the Acquiror Indemnified Parties may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, in each case, to
the extent arising out of or in connection with, or resulting from, any Specified Liabilities. 
 (e) For purposes of determining the
inaccuracy or breach of any representations or warranties), any materiality or Transferred Companies Material Adverse Effect qualification contained in the representations and warranties (other than such qualifications contained in the

 83 

 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Holding nor any of the
Holders shall be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Acquiror Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Acquiror Indemnified Party for, any Losses pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i), Section 10.2(a)(ii),
Section 10.2(b)(i) or Section 10.2(c) (other than Losses arising out of or in connection with, or resulting from, the inaccuracy or breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental Representations, Holder Fundamental
Representations or Founder Fundamental Representations) (A) with respect to any claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) in respect of such Losses, unless such claim (or series of
related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) involves such Losses in excess of $50,000; and (B) until the aggregate amount of such Losses (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any Losses arising out
of or in connection with, or resulting from, the inaccuracy or breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental Representations, Holder Fundamental Representations or Founder Fundamental Representations) exceeds $1,320,000, and then for any Losses in
excess thereof, subject to the provisions of this Article X. The aggregate amount of indemnification payments made to all Acquiror Indemnified Parties in respect of Losses pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i),
Section 10.2(a)(ii), Section 10.2(b)(i) or Section 10.2(c) (other than Losses arising out of or in connection with, or resulting from, the inaccuracy or breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the sole remedy available to the Acquiror Indemnified Parties in
respect of any indemnification claim made pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i)-(iii), Section 10.2(b) or Section 10.2(c) (other than in respect of the inaccuracy or breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental

Transferor Parties Fundamental Representations, Holder Fundamental Representations or Founder Fundamental Representations only, Section 10.2(a)(i)-(iii), Section 10.2(b) or Section 10.2(c), shall be the forfeiture
of Securities pursuant to the procedures set out in Section 10.7. 
 Section 10.3 Indemnification by the Acquiror and
Parent. 
 (a) From and after the Closing and subject to this Article X, the Acquiror and Parent, jointly and severally,
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Transferor Party, each Holder, the Founder, their respective Affiliates and each of their and their Affiliates’ Representatives (collectively, the “Transferor Indemnified Parties”)
against, and reimburse the Transferor Indemnified Parties for, all Losses that any of the Transferor Indemnified Parties may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, in each case, to the extent arising out of or in connection with, or
resulting from: 
 (i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty in Article V or Article VI of
this Agreement; 

  
 84 

 (ii) any breach or failure by the Acquiror or Parent to perform any of its covenants or

contributed hereby and not in any other connection, including not (A) in their capacity as employees, (B) in connection with any compensation payable under the Acquiror LP Agreement, or (C) as holders of equity of the Acquiror or
Parent or any of their Affiliates). 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Acquiror nor Parent shall
be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Transferor Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Transferor Indemnified Party for, any Losses pursuant to Section 10.3(a)(i) (other than Losses arising out of or in connection
with, or resulting from, the inaccuracy or breach of any Acquiror Fundamental Representations) (A) with respect to any claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) in respect of such Loss,
unless such claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) involves such Losses in excess of $50,000; and (B) until the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds $1,320,000. The aggregate
amount of indemnification payments made to all Transferor Indemnified Parties in respect of Losses pursuant to Section 10.3(a)(i) (other than Losses arising out of or in connection with, or resulting from, the inaccuracy or breach of any
Acquiror Fundamental Representations) shall not, individually or in the aggregate, exceed the Indemnification Cap. 
 Section 10.4
Third-Party Claim Indemnification Procedures. 
 (a) In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party
(an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article X (an “Indemnified Party”), other than those relating to Taxes (which are the subject of
Section 7.14(c)), is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) days
following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third-Party Claim, notify the applicable Indemnifying Party (it being understood that all notices to be provided to the Holders as an Indemnifying Party shall be provided to the Holders’
Representative) in writing of such Third-Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other
remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to timely
give a Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party
Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if more than one of the Holders are Indemnified Parties or 

  
 85 

 
Indemnifying Parties, then the terms “Indemnified Party” and “Indemnifying Party” (to the extent referenced in this Agreement in respect of actions required to be taken, or
notices required to be given, to or by such Indemnified Parties or Indemnifying Parties, but not in respect of indemnification obligations of such Indemnifying Parties or the right to indemnification of such Indemnified Parties) shall mean the
Holders’ Representative acting on behalf of such Holders, and each such Holder shall be responsible for communicating on a timely basis with the Holders’ Representative in connection therewith. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty
(30) days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a litigated matter) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified
Party that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third-Party Claim and the defense thereof. 

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified
Party against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense, at its expense. Once the Indemnifying Party has duly assumed the defense
of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnified
Party shall participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are both named parties to the proceedings and the Indemnifying Party shall have reasonably concluded that
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, or (ii) the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim after the Indemnifying Party has
failed to diligently pursue a Third-Party Claim it has assumed, as provided in the first sentence of Section 10.4(c). The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim on a basis that (A) contains an admission of liability on the part of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates,
(B) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim or (C) would impose a judgment
that provides for anything other than monetary damages that are indemnified in accordance with this Article X (subject to Section 10.7). The Indemnifying Party shall (i) not encumber any of the material assets of any
Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to or materially adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 
 (c) If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to defend the
Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice of its desire to so defend pursuant to Section 10.4(a) or (ii) after assuming the defense of a Third-Party Claim, fails to take
reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third-Party Claim within ten (10) days after receiving written notice from the Indemnified Party to the effect that the Indemnifying Party has so failed, the Indemnified Party shall have the
right but not the obligation to assume its own defense; it being understood that the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification for a 

  
 86 

 
Third-Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle a Third-Party
Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as promptly as reasonably practicable following receipt by the Acquiror of a Claim Notice or a written notice by Holding, Holding II or the Holders’ Representative of a demand or
inquiry by a Governmental Authority, or subpoena or other legal process served by any Person, relating to any Transferred Company, the Acquiror shall, and shall cause each Transferred Company to, retain documents that are then within the
Acquiror’s or any Transferred Company’s possession or control and reasonably related to such Third-Party Claim or such other demand or other legal process for a period of time that Holding or the Holders’ Representative reasonably
determines, in consultation with the Acquiror, after taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances (each such period, a “Claim Notice Period”). For the purposes of this Section 10.4(d), the term
“documents” is defined as synonymous with the term “documents or electronically stored information” in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 34(a)(1)(A). If the Indemnifying Party chooses to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim,
the Indemnifying Party may direct the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim to take during the Claim Notice Period reasonable measures (which measures shall be at least substantially comparable to measures employed by the
Indemnified Party with respect to its own materials following the Closing) designed to preserve attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product immunity to the extent then existing in respect of documents reasonably relating to such Third-Party
Claim and the Indemnified Party shall, upon the reasonable written request of the Indemnifying Party, make reasonably available to the Indemnifying Party such books, records or other documents and employees and Representatives reasonably relating to
such Third-Party Claim that are within the Indemnified Party’s possession or control that are reasonably related to the litigation related to such Third-Party Claim. Except with respect to any sharing of privileged materials under any common
interest agreement or joint defense agreement entered into by the Transferor Parties and the Acquiror, subject to the following proviso, the Indemnified Party shall not be required to make available to the Indemnifying Party any information that is
subject to an attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege that based on the reasonable opinion of its outside counsel would be impaired by such disclosure or any confidentiality restriction under applicable Law; provided,
however, that the Transferor Parties, the Holders’ Representative, or Acquiror, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to permit the Indemnifying Party to become party to any joint defense or common interest
agreement entered into by an Indemnified Party with any third Person. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement (including Section 7.14, Section 10.2 and Section 10.3), no Indemnifying Party shall have any liability under this Article X or Section 7.14 for any Losses arising out of or in
connection with any Third-Party Claim that is settled or compromised by an Indemnified Party without the consent of such Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

Section 10.5 Direct Claims. If an Indemnified Party wishes to make a claim for indemnification hereunder for a Loss that does not
result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall (i) notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of 

  
 87 

 
such Direct Claim, (ii) specify the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount
of such Direct Claim), (iii) state in reasonable detail the circumstances giving rise to the Loss, (iv) specify the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of this Agreement alleged to have been breached or not performed by the
Indemnifying Party, (v) state any other remedy sought thereunder, (vi) specify any relevant time constraints relating thereto, and (vii) to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto. The Indemnifying Party
shall have a period of thirty (30) days within which to respond to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not respond with an objection and a reasonably specific basis for such objection within such thirty (30)-day period, the
Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have accepted the Direct Claim. 
 Section 10.6 Payments. 

(a) In the event a claim for indemnification under this Article X has been finally determined, (i) if the Indemnified Party
is a Transferor Indemnified Party, the amount of such final determination shall be paid to the Indemnified Party by the Acquiror promptly in immediately available funds and (ii) if the Indemnified Party is an Acquiror Indemnified Party, the
provisions of Section 10.7 shall apply, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2(g). 
 (b) A claim, and the
liability for and amount of damages therefor, shall be deemed to be “finally determined” for purposes of this Article X when the parties hereto have so determined by mutual agreement or, if disputed, when a final,
non-appealable Order or arbitral award has been entered into with respect to such claim or the Action relating to such claim, and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any expenses incurred in respect of prosecuting such claim. 

Section 10.7 Payment by Holding and the Holders. 

(a) Exchange Restriction. At the Closing, and on each of the first anniversary of the Closing, the second anniversary of the Closing
and the third anniversary of the Closing, if there is then any pending claims for indemnification made by the Acquiror pursuant to Section 10.2(a) or Section 7.14(a)(i), then, for each such claim, a number of Class E Units,
rounded down to the nearest whole unit, that (i) for the non-Founder Class E Units, vest at such time and (ii) for the Founder Class E Units, that but for this Section 10.7(a) would become exchangeable for Parent Common
Stock at such time (in the case of (i) and (ii), other than Class E Units that were converted from Class G Interests or Class H Interests, in each case not exceeding the Class E Units Cap) equal to the product of (x) the
dollar value of such pending claim (subject to Section 10.9(a)), as set forth in any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.4, Section 10.5 or Section 7.14(c), as applicable, multiplied by the
aggregate Class E Pro Rata Percentage of Holding and each Holder (with respect to each such claim, the total dollar amount of such claim as of any time of measurement, multiplied by the aggregate Class E Pro Rata Percentage of Holding and
each Holder, the “Reserve Amount”), divided by the Market Price at such time (together, the “Exchange Restricted Units”), will be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in this
Section 10.7 and will not be exchangeable into Parent Common Stock except to the extent permitted by the provisions of this Section 10.7. The Exchange 

  
 88 

 
Restricted Units shall be allocated across Holding and the Holders in accordance with their respective Class E Pro Rata Percentages calculated as of the Closing, the first anniversary of the
Closing, the second anniversary of the Closing, and the third anniversary of the Closing, as applicable. In addition, at any time there is any pending claim for indemnification made by the Acquiror pursuant to Section 10.2(b),
Section 10.2(c) , Section 10.2(d) or Section 7.14(a)(ii), a number of Class E Units held by the Person against whom such claim is pending, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the
dollar value of such pending claims (subject to Section 10.9(a)), as set forth in any notice delivered to a particular Holder pursuant to Section 10.4, Section 10.5 or Section 7.14(c), as applicable
(with respect to each such claim against such Person, the total dollar amount of such claim as of any time of measurement, the “Individual Reserve Amount”), divided by the Market Price at such time and at the time of final
determination (at each relevant time, the “Individual Exchange Restricted Units”), will be subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in this Section 10.7 and will not be exchangeable into Parent Common Stock except
to the extent permitted by the provisions of this Section 10.7. 
 (b) Release of Exchange Restriction. Within five
(5) Business Days following each of the first three anniversaries of the Closing, a number of then Exchange Restricted Units with respect to each indemnification claim, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to, if positive, the excess
of (i) the number of then Exchange Restricted Units previously reserved pursuant to Section 10.7(a) against such indemnification claim pursuant to Section 10.2(a) or Section 7.14(a)(i), over (ii) the
number of Exchange Restricted Units forfeited with respect to such indemnification claim pursuant to Section 10.7(c)(i) or Section 10.7(c)(iv), as applicable (such excess Exchange Restricted Units, the “Aggregate
Exchange Restricted Removal Units”), shall be released from any exchange restriction hereunder and shall no longer be Exchange Restricted Units; provided, that if there are any indemnification claims made by the Acquiror pursuant to
Section 10.2(a) or Section 7.14(a)(i) that are still pending as of such time (including any pending indemnification claims described in the second sentence of Section 10.7(c)(i)), as set forth in any notices
delivered pursuant to Section 10.4, Section 10.5 or Section 7.14(c) or described in the second sentence of Section 10.7(c)(i), as applicable, then a number of such Aggregate Exchange Restricted Removal
Units that would otherwise be released pursuant to this Section 10.7(b) shall become Exchange Restricted Units in respect of any such still pending claims as shall be allocated and determined by Acquiror (it being understood that each
Exchange Restricted Unit shall be so allocated to a specific claim as determined by the Acquiror); provided, that the number of Exchange Restricted Units to be so allocated shall not exceed the amount necessary so that the aggregate number of
Exchange Restricted Units in respect of each such still pending claim immediately following such release is equal to (A) the Reserve Amount in respect of such still pending claim as of the time of such release, divided by (B) the
Market Price at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is any indemnification claim made by the Acquiror against a Person pursuant to Section 10.2(b), Section 10.2(c), Section 10.2(d) or
Section 7.14(a)(ii) that is pending as of such time, as set forth in any notices delivered pursuant to Section 10.4, Section 10.5 or Section 7.14(c), as applicable, and if the number of then Individual
Exchange Restricted Units of any Person in respect of such claim is less than (A) the Individual Reserve Amount of such Person in respect of such claim at such time divided by (B) the Market Price at such time (such amount, the
“Deficit Reserve”), then contemporaneously with such release of Aggregate Exchange Restricted Removal Units to such Person pursuant to this Section 10.7(b) (but following any allocation of such Aggregate Exchange
Restricted Removal Units to a claim pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), a 

  
 89 

 
number of Aggregate Exchange Restricted Removal Units that otherwise would have been released to such Person with a value of up to the Deficit Reserve (as determined using the Market Price at
such time) shall remain Individual Exchange Restricted Units of such Person in respect of such claim. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent Aggregate Exchange Removal Units being released pursuant to this Section 10.7(b) are
comprised of Exchange Restricted Units that became Exchange Restricted Units at different times, the allocation of such Aggregate Exchange Removal Units among Holding and the Holders shall be determined based on the Class E Pro Rata Percentage
applicable to such Exchange Restricted Units at the time such units first became Exchange Restricted Units, with the result that there may be different Class E Pro Rata Percentages applicable with respect to each finally determined claim. The
Aggregate Exchange Restricted Removal Units that are released pursuant to this Section 10.7(b) shall be allocated across Holding and each of the Holders in accordance with their respective Class E Pro Rata Percentages calculated as of
the date such units first became Exchange Restricted Units. For the avoidance of doubt, if the number of then Exchange Restricted Units at any time is less than (A) the sum of all the Reserve Amounts in respect of all unresolved claims at such
time divided by (B) the Market Price at such time, then no Exchange Restricted Units shall be released at such time (and shall be instead reallocated against remaining unresolved claims as provided in this Section 10.7(b)).

 (c) Forfeiture Upon Final Determination of a Claim. 

(i) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i)-(iii) being finally determined in favor of the
Acquiror, a number of Exchange Restricted Units, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to this Article X in respect of such finally determined claim divided by the Market Price as of
the date of final determination shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)), with such forfeiture being allocated in accordance with Holding’s and each Holder’s Class
E Pro Rata Percentage, calculated as of the date that such units first became Exchange Restricted Units, with apportionment between units withheld from release and reserved against at each anniversary of the Closing occurring as provided in
Section 10.7(b). If the number of Exchange Restricted Units forfeited pursuant to the preceding sentence multiplied by the Market Price as of the date of final determination is less than the product of (x) the amount of such
finally determined claim multiplied by (y) the aggregate Class E Pro Rata Percentages of Holding and each Holder, then the number of forfeited Exchange Restricted Units, multiplied by the Market Price as of the date of final
determination shall be subtracted from the amount of the finally determined claim and the amount of such shortfall shall be considered a pending claim in respect of the next date on which Class E Units may become Exchange Restricted Units pursuant
to Section 10.7(a) and for purposes of determining the number of Aggregate Exchange Restricted Removal Units to be released pursuant to Section 10.7(b). 

(ii) (A) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(b) (other than any claim with respect to a Holder
Fundamental Representation) being finally determined against any Holder and in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Eligible Class E Units of such Holder, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to
this Article X in respect of such finally determined claim divided by the Market Price as of the date of final determination shall be 

  
 90 

 
forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)). (B) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(b)
with respect to a Holder Fundamental Representation, or pursuant to Section 7.14(a)(ii), being finally determined against any Holder and in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Securities (which may include the Eligible Class E Units,
determined at the Acquiror’s sole discretion) of such Holder, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to this Article X in respect of such finally determined claim divided by the
Market Price as of the date of final determination shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)). 

(iii) (A) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(c) (other than any claim with respect to a Founder
Fundamental Representation) being finally determined in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Eligible Class E Units of Holding, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to this Article X
in respect of such finally determined claim divided by the Market Price as of the date of final determination shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)). (B) Upon any
claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iv) with respect to a Founder Fundamental Representation being finally determined against the Founder and in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Securities (which may include the
Eligible Class E Units, determined at the Acquiror’s sole discretion) of the Founder, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to this Article X in respect of such finally
determined claim divided by the Market Price as of the date of final determination shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)). 

(iv) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iv) or Section 7.14(a)(i) or, solely with respect
of the inaccuracy or breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental Representations, Section 10.2(a)(i)-(ii), being finally determined in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Securities (which may include the Eligible Class E Units,
determined at the Acquiror’s sole discretion) of Holding or each Holder equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iv) or Section 7.14(a)(i), or, solely with respect of the inaccuracy or
breach of any Transferor Parties Fundamental Representations, Section 10.2(a)(i)-(ii), as applicable, in respect of such finally determined claim multiplied by Holding’s or such Holder’s Class E Pro Rata Percentage, without
regard to the exclusion of Class E Units that were converted from Class G Interests or Class H Interests in the numerator or the denominator thereof, as of the date the claim for indemnification is made (with respect to claims against Securities
other than Exchange Restricted Units) and as of the date the units in respect of such claim first became Exchange Restricted Units) divided by the Market Price as of (x) with respect to vested Class E Units, the date of final determination, and
(y) with respect to any other Securities, the date the Management Securities become vested Class E Units or the date the Founder Securities become exchangeable for Parent Common Stock, shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further
action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)); provided, that to the extent Securities of one or more classes are forfeited pursuant to this Section 10.7(c)(iv), such Securities shall be forfeited by Holding and each
Holder in the same or as similar proportions with respect to each class of Security as is practicable; it being understood that in the event that any portion of a claim is being satisfied by Securities that as of the date of
final determination 

  
 91 

 
have not yet become vested Class E Units or Founder Securities that have not yet become exchangeable for Parent Common Stock, such claim shall be satisfied by such Securities upon their vesting
or becoming exchangeable for Parent Common Stock).
 (v) Upon any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(d) being
finally determined in favor of the Acquiror, a number of Securities (which may include the Eligible Class E Units, determined at the Acquiror’s sole discretion) of Holding equal to the amount payable to the Acquiror pursuant to this
Article X in respect of such finally determined claim divided by the Market Price as of (x) with respect to vested Class E Units, the date of final determination, and (y) with respect to any other Securities, the date such
Securities become exchangeable for Parent Common Stock, shall be forfeited to the Acquiror, without any further action (except as set forth in Section 10.7(d)); it being understood that in the event that any portion
of a claim is being satisfied by Securities that as of the date of final determination have not yet become exchangeable for Parent Common Stock, such claim shall be satisfied by such Securities upon their becoming exchangeable for Parent Common
Stock. 
 (vi) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Securities be forfeited pursuant to more than one of clauses (i), (ii), (iii),
(iv) or (v) of this Section 10.7(c) in respect of the same underlying Loss. 
 (d) Forfeiture Notice. No later
than five (5) Business Days following the final determination of a claim for indemnification resulting in a forfeiture of Securities pursuant to this Section 10.7, the Acquiror shall provide written notice to each holder of
Securities to be so forfeited (a “Forfeiture Notice”), setting forth (i) the amount payable in respect of the applicable claim pursuant to this Article X or Section 7.14, as applicable, (ii) the
calculation of such holder’s portion of such payment and (iii) the number and calculation of the Securities (including any Exchange Restricted Units and Individual Exchange Restricted Units) being so forfeited pursuant to this
Section 10.7. 
 (e) Holding Distribution. If at any time following the Closing, Holding distributes any of the Founder
Securities (or Management Securities reallocated to Holding pursuant to the Acquiror LP Agreement) to any of Holding’s equity holders, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, such Securities shall be subject to this
Section 10.7 and each provision applicable to Holding shall, mutatis mutandis, apply to such equity holder following such distribution. 

(f) Tax Reserve. 
 (i)
If, immediately prior to the last Class H Conversion Date (as defined in the Acquiror LP Agreement), there is any pending audit, examination, investigation or other proceeding, claim or assessment with respect to Taxes (“Tax Audit”)
or the Acquiror has received notice of any Tax Audit that, as agreed by the Acquiror and the Holders’ Representative, acting reasonably, could give rise to an indemnifiable obligation under Section 7.14(a)(i), a number of Class E
Units that a holder of Class G Interests and Class H Interests would receive upon conversion of such Interest at such time, in each case, rounded down to the nearest whole unit, with an aggregate value at such time, equal to the product of
(x) the aggregate Class E Pro Rata Percentage of Holding and each Holder (determined without regard to the exclusion of Class E Units that were converted from Class G Interests or Class H Interests

  
 92 

 
in the numerator or denominator thereof) calculated as of the time of such restriction, multiplied by (y) the dollar value of the anticipated outcome of such Tax Audit, as agreed by
the Acquiror and the Holders’ Representative, acting reasonably, divided by (z) the Market Price at such time (together, the “Audit Restricted Units”) will be subject to the forfeiture provisions of this
Section 10.7 and will not be exchangeable into Parent Common Stock, until such time as the Tax Audit and any claims resulting therefrom are finally determined. The Audit Restricted Units shall be allocated across Holding and the Holders
in accordance with their respective Class E Pro Rata Percentages, determined without regard to the exclusion of Class E Units that were converted from Class G Interests or Class H Interests in the numerator or the denominator thereof, calculated as
of the time of such restriction. 
 (ii) If, immediately prior to the last Class H Conversion Date (as defined in the Acquiror LP
Agreement), there is any pending Tax Audit or the Acquiror has received notice of any Tax Audit that, as agreed by the Acquiror and the Holders’ Representative, acting reasonably, could give rise to an indemnifiable obligation under
Section 7.14(a)(ii) with respect to a Holder, a number of Class E Units that such Holder of Class G Interests and Class H Interests would receive upon conversion of such Interest at such time, in each case, rounded down to the nearest
whole unit, with an aggregate value at such time, equal to (y) the dollar value of the anticipated outcome of such Tax Audit with respect to Specified Amounts with respect to such Holder , as agreed by the Acquiror and the Holders’
Representative, acting reasonably, divided by (z) the Market Price at such time (together, the “Specified Restricted Units”) will be subject to the forfeiture provisions of this Section 10.7 and will not be
exchangeable into Parent Common Stock, until such time as the Tax Audit and any claims resulting therefrom are finally determined. 
 (iii)
To the extent that any Holder who has forfeited Management Securities in connection with a termination of employment (a “Forfeiting Holder”) has liability pursuant to Section 7.14(a)(ii), and such forfeited Management
Securities have been reallocated to Holding or other Holders pursuant to the Acquiror LP Agreement, such reallocated Management Securities shall be subject to being held in reserve and forfeited in accordance with this Section 10.7 in
respect of the Forfeiting Holder’s liability under Section 7.14(a)(ii) to the same extent as if such Management Securities continued to be held by the Forfeiting Holder. In such case, such reservation and/or forfeiture, as
applicable, of such Management Securities shall be allocated among the Persons to whom such Management Securities were reallocated in proportion to amount reallocated to each such Person. 

(g) Acceleration Trigger Event. If any Exchange Restricted Units, Individual Exchange Restricted Units or Specified Restricted
Units are redeemed in exchange for Deal Consideration (as defined in the Acquiror LP Agreement) in connection with an Acceleration Trigger Event (as defined in the Acquiror LP Agreement), the Deal Consideration received by the Holders and/or
Holding, as applicable, in respect of such units shall be restricted, shall be subject to forfeiture and shall be subject to release from restriction, in each case, to the same extent as the redeemed units would have been, with such restriction,
forfeiture and release governed by the provisions of this Section 10.7, applied mutatis mutandis. 

  
 93 

 Section 10.8 Exclusive Remedies. Following the Closing, subject to the penultimate
sentence of Section 7.3(a) and Section 11.12, other than in the case of fraud, the indemnification provisions of this Article X and the provisions of Section 7.14 shall be the sole and exclusive
remedies of the parties hereto for any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant
or agreement contained herein shall give rise to any right on the part of any party hereto to rescind this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any of the Transactions. 

Section 10.9 Additional Indemnification Provisions. 

(a) The Transferor Parties and the Acquiror agree, for themselves and on behalf of their respective Affiliates and Representatives, that with
respect to each indemnification obligation set forth in Section 7.14 and this Article X: (i) all Losses shall be reduced by (A) any insurance or other proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party from any
third party (including reinsurance or insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually recovered by any Indemnified Party from any such third party, and after taking into account any deductibles, copayments or
other cost sharing arrangements) on account of the Losses, in each case, net of the present value of any increase in insurance premiums or other charges paid by the Indemnified Party resulting from such Losses and all costs and expenses reasonably
incurred by the Indemnified Party in recovering such proceeds from such third party (such proceeds, “Eligible Third-Party Proceeds”) and (B) the amount of any Tax benefit, over the amount of any Tax detriment (“Net Tax
Benefit”) actually realized by the Indemnified Party (or by its direct or indirect holders, in the case of an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, calculated using the Assumed Tax Rate (but only taking into
account the federal, state and local income taxes to the extent applicable in respect of such tax benefits and detriments)) for the year of the Loss and the three years following the year of the Loss as a result of sustaining any Losses, and
(ii) in no event shall an Indemnifying Party have any liability to an Indemnified Party for: (A) any Losses to the extent arising from special circumstances of the Indemnified Party that were not communicated prior to the date hereof by
the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party, (B) any punitive or special Losses other than punitive or special Losses recovered by third parties in connection with a Third-Party Claim, (C) any indirect or consequential Losses to the
extent not the direct and reasonably foreseeable result of any breach by the Indemnifying Party of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement (provided, that this clause (C) shall not apply to any Losses that are
recovered by third parties in connection with a Third-Party Claim), (D) any Losses to the extent based on reputational harm (other than any such Losses that are recovered by a third party in connection with a Third-Party Claim); and
(E) any costs and expenses of investigation, assertion, dispute, enforcement, defense or resolution, including attorneys’, actuaries’, accountants’ and other professionals’ fees, disbursements and expenses, to the extent
incurred in connection with any claim or dispute among the parties hereto as to whether a Transferor Indemnified Party, on the one hand, or an Acquiror Indemnified Party, on the other hand, is entitled to indemnification under
Section 7.14 or this Article X for any particular Loss or Losses or to specific enforcement under Section 11.13 except to the extent that an Indemnified Party prevails with respect to a direct claim (for the
avoidance of doubt, the limitations in this subsection (E) shall not apply with respect to costs and expenses relating to the investigation, assertion, dispute, enforcement, defense or resolution in respect of any Third-Party Claim, including
reasonable 

  
 94 

 
attorneys’, actuaries’, accountants’ and other professionals’ fees, disbursements and expenses in respect of any Third-Party Claim, which costs and expenses shall be subject
to the provisions of Section 10.4. No multiplier or similar concept shall be applied for the purposes of calculating Losses. In the event that an Indemnified Party actually realizes a Net Tax Benefit with respect to a Loss subsequent to
being indemnified for such Loss by an Indemnifying Party, such Indemnified Party shall, as promptly as practicable, reimburse such Indemnifying Party for the amount of such Net Tax Benefit, to the extent such amount of Net Tax Benefit exceeds, at
such time, the amount of any outstanding indemnification claims pursuant to Article X or Section 7.14. In connection with the determination of the amount of any pending or finally determined indemnification claim pursuant to
Article X or Section 7.14, the amount of any Net Tax Benefit actually realized by any Indemnified Party at the time of such determination over the amount, at such time, of any outstanding indemnification claims pursuant to
Article X or Section 7.14, shall be taken into account in the determination of the amount of such pending or finally determined indemnification claim. To the extent that any Net Tax Benefit is actually realized following a
forfeiture of Securities pursuant to Section 10.7, and prior to the time that Class G Interests and Class H Interests can no longer convert to Class E Units, then such forfeited Securities shall, as promptly as practicable, be restored
to Holding or the applicable Holder, as applicable, in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Tax Benefit actually realized over the amount, at such time, of any outstanding indemnification claims pursuant to Article X or
Section 7.14, divided by the Market Price as of the date of such restoration (with such restored Securities allocated among Holding and each Holder in the same proportions, and as the same class of Securities, as the applicable
forfeiture). 
 (b) Any amount payable by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article X or Section 7.14 shall be
paid, subject to Section 10.7, promptly and payment shall not be delayed pending any determination of Eligible Third-Party Proceeds. In any case where an Indemnified Party recovers from a third Person any Eligible Third-Party Proceeds or
any other amount in respect of any Loss for which an Indemnifying Party has actually reimbursed it pursuant to Section 7.14 or this Article X, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the
amount of such Eligible Third-Party Proceeds, but not in excess of the sum of (i) any amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim and (ii) any amount expended by the
Indemnifying Party in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such matter. In connection with the determination of the amount of any pending or finally determined indemnification claim pursuant to Article X or
Section 7.14, the amount of any Eligible Third-Party Proceeds recovered by any Indemnified Party at the time of such determination shall be taken into account in the determination of the amount of such pending or finally determined
indemnification claim. To the extent that Eligible Third-Party Proceeds are received following a forfeiture of Securities pursuant to Section 10.7, and prior to the time that Class G Interests and Class H Interests can no longer convert
to Class E Units, then such forfeited Securities shall, as promptly as practicable, be restored to Holding or the applicable Holder, as applicable, in an amount equal to the amount of such Eligible Third-Party Proceeds received divided by the Market
Price as of the date of such restoration (with such restored Securities allocated among Holding and each Holder in the same proportions, and as the same class of Securities, as the applicable forfeiture). 

(c) The parties hereto shall treat any indemnification payment made under this Agreement and any adjustment thereto pursuant to
Section 10.9 as an adjustment to the consideration hereunder for all federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes and the parties agree to file their Tax Returns accordingly. 

  
 95 

 (d) If the Indemnified Party becomes aware that any portion of Losses reimbursed or to be
reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party may be covered, in whole or in part, by third party insurance coverage provided by a third party insurer or by indemnification or other contribution provided by a third party under a Contract between or among the
Indemnified Party and such third party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall use, if requested in writing by the Indemnifying Party, its commercially reasonable efforts at
the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party to collect such insurance or other recoverable proceeds with respect to any such Losses. 
 (e) The
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the same Loss may be subject to indemnification under more than one subsection of Section 10.2 or Section 10.3(a), respectively; provided, however, that, in no event
shall the Transferor Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, or the Acquiror Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, be entitled to duplicative recoveries for the same underlying Loss. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Holders or Holding or any Indemnifying Party related to
any Holder or Holding be liable for any Losses that constituted a Current Liability for purposes of determining Closing Date Net Working Capital in connection with the calculation of the Final Deficit Amount pursuant to Section 2.8. 

Section 10.10 Mitigation. Each of the parties hereto agrees to take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate their respective
Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition which would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder. In the event an Indemnified Party fails to so mitigate an indemnifiable Loss, the
Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for any portion of such Loss that reasonably could have been avoided had the Indemnified Party made such efforts. 

Section 10.11 Holders’ Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holders’ Representative has full power and
authority to give and receive any notice to be given by or to the Holders pursuant to this Article X or Section 7.14(c) and to make any decision or take any other action required to be made or taken by the Holders pursuant to
this Article X or Section 7.14.

expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.

illegal or incapable of being enforced under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the

behalf of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. 
 Section 11.5 Assignment. Neither this
Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided,

Section 11.5 shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns.

(c) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER ANY OF THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE
COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY

  
 100 

 
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE FORMATION, BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION

THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.9. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY. 
 Section 11.10 Scope of Agreements. This Agreement shall not create any partnership, joint venture or other
similar arrangement between any Transferor Party or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Acquiror or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand.

instrument to be drafted; (i) if a word or phrase is defined, the other grammatical forms of such word or phrase have a corresponding meaning; (j) references to any statute, listing rule, rule, standard, regulation or other law include a

Exhibit 10.1
CORELOGIC, INC. 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 2011 PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN
		
	1.
	PURPOSE OF PLAN

The purpose of this CoreLogic, Inc. Amended and Restated 2011 Performance Incentive Plan (this “Plan”) of CoreLogic, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), is to promote the success of the Corporation and to increase stockholder value by providing an additional means through the grant of awards to attract, motivate, retain and reward selected employees and other eligible persons.
		
	2.
	ELIGIBILITY

The Administrator (as such term is defined in Section 3.1) may grant awards under this Plan only to those persons that the Administrator determines to be Eligible Persons.  An “Eligible Person” is any person who is either: (a) an officer (whether or not a director) or employee of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries; (b) a director of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries; or (c) an individual consultant or advisor who renders or has rendered bona fide services (other than services in connection with the offering or sale of securities of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries in a capital-raising transaction or as a market maker or promoter of securities of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries) to the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries and who is selected to participate in this Plan by the Administrator; provided, however, that a person who is otherwise an Eligible Person under clause (c) above may participate in this Plan only if such participation would not adversely affect either the Corporation’s eligibility to use Form S-8 to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the offering and sale of shares issuable under this Plan by the Corporation or the Corporation’s compliance with any other applicable laws.  An Eligible Person who has been granted an award (a “participant”) may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional awards if the Administrator shall so determine.  As used herein, “Subsidiary” means any corporation or other entity a majority of whose outstanding voting stock or voting power is beneficially owned directly or indirectly by the Corporation; and “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
		
	3.
	PLAN ADMINISTRATION

3.1    The Administrator.  This Plan shall be administered by and all awards under this Plan shall be authorized by the Administrator.  The “Administrator” means the Board or one or more committees appointed by the Board or another committee (within its delegated authority) to administer all or certain aspects of this Plan.  Any such committee shall be comprised solely of one or more directors or such number of directors as may be required under applicable law.  A committee may delegate some or all of its authority to another committee so 

1

constituted.  The Board or a committee comprised solely of directors may also delegate, to the extent permitted by Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law and any other applicable law, to one or more officers of the Corporation, its powers under this Plan (a) to designate the officers and employees of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries who will receive grants of awards under this Plan, and (b) to determine the number of shares subject to, and the other terms and conditions of, such awards.  The Board may delegate different levels of authority to different committees with administrative and grant authority under this Plan.  Unless otherwise provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation or the applicable charter of any Administrator: (a) a majority of the members of the acting Administrator shall constitute a quorum, and (b) the vote of a majority of the members present assuming the presence of a quorum or the unanimous written consent of the members of the Administrator shall constitute action by the acting Administrator.
With respect to awards intended to satisfy the requirements for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), this Plan shall be administered by a committee consisting solely of two or more outside directors (as this requirement is applied under Section 162(m) of the Code); provided, however, that the failure to satisfy such requirement shall not affect the validity of the action of any committee otherwise duly authorized and acting in the matter.  Award grants, and transactions in or involving awards, intended to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must be duly and timely authorized by the Board or a committee consisting solely of two or more non-employee directors (as this requirement is applied under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act).  To the extent required by any applicable listing agency, this Plan shall be administered by a committee composed entirely of independent directors (within the meaning of the applicable listing agency).
3.2    Powers of the Administrator.  Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Administrator is authorized and empowered to do all things necessary or desirable in connection with the authorization of awards and the administration of this Plan (in the case of a committee or delegation to one or more officers, within the authority delegated to that committee or person(s)), including, without limitation, the authority to:
		
	(a)
	determine eligibility and, from among those persons determined to be eligible, the particular Eligible Persons who will receive an award under this Plan;

		
	(b)
	grant awards to Eligible Persons, determine the price at which securities will be offered or awarded and the number of securities to be offered or awarded to any of such persons, determine the other specific terms and 

2

conditions of such awards consistent with the express limits of this Plan, establish the installments (if any) in which such awards shall become exercisable or shall vest (which may include, without limitation, performance and/or time-based schedules), or determine that no delayed exercisability or vesting is required, establish any applicable performance targets, and establish the events of termination or reversion of such awards;
		
	(c)
	approve the forms of award agreements (which need not be identical either as to type of award or among participants);

		
	(d)
	construe and interpret this Plan and any agreements defining the rights and obligations of the Corporation, its Subsidiaries, and participants under this Plan, further define the terms used in this Plan, and prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of this Plan or the awards granted under this Plan;

		
	(e)
	cancel, modify, or waive the Corporation’s rights with respect to, or modify, discontinue, suspend, or terminate any or all outstanding awards, subject to any required consent under Section 8.6.5;

		
	(f)
	accelerate or extend the vesting or exercisability or extend the term of any or all such outstanding awards (in the case of options or stock appreciation rights, within the maximum ten-year term of such awards) in such circumstances as the Administrator may deem appropriate (including, without limitation, in connection with a termination of employment or services or other events of a personal nature) subject to any required consent under Section 8.6.5;

		
	(g)
	adjust the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any award, adjust the price of any or all outstanding awards or otherwise change previously imposed terms and conditions, in such circumstances as the Administrator may deem appropriate, in each case subject to Sections 4 and 8.6 (and subject to the no repricing provision below);

		
	(h)
	determine the date of grant of an award, which may be a designated date after but not before the date of the Administrator’s action (unless otherwise designated by the Administrator, the date of grant of an award shall be the date upon which the Administrator took the action granting an award);

		
	(i)
	determine whether, and the extent to which, adjustments are required pursuant to Section 7 hereof and authorize the termination, conversion, substitution or succession of awards upon the occurrence of an event of the type described in Section 7;

3

		
	(j)
	acquire or settle (subject to Sections 7 and 8.6) rights under awards in cash, stock of equivalent value, or other consideration (subject to the no repricing provision below); and

		
	(k)
	determine the fair market value of the Common Stock or awards under this Plan from time to time and/or the manner in which such value will be determined.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and except for an adjustment pursuant to Section 7.1 or a repricing approved by stockholders, in no case may the Administrator (1) amend an outstanding stock option or SAR to reduce the exercise price or base price of the award, (2) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding stock option or SAR in exchange for cash or other awards for the purpose of repricing the award, or (3) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding stock option or SAR in exchange for an option or SAR with an exercise or base price that is less than the exercise or base price of the original award.
3.3    Binding Determinations.  Any action taken by, or inaction of, the Corporation, any Subsidiary, or the Administrator relating or pursuant to this Plan and within its authority hereunder or under applicable law shall be within the absolute discretion of that entity or body and shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons.  Neither the Board nor any Board committee, nor any member thereof or person acting at the direction thereof, shall be liable for any act, omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in good faith in connection with this Plan (or any award made under this Plan), and all such persons shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement by the Corporation in respect of any claim, loss, damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) arising or resulting therefrom to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or under any directors and officers liability insurance coverage that may be in effect from time to time.
3.4    Reliance on Experts.  In making any determination or in taking or not taking any action under this Plan, the Administrator may obtain and may rely upon the advice of experts, including employees and professional advisors to the Corporation.  No director, officer or agent of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable for any such action or determination taken or made or omitted in good faith.
3.5    Delegation.  The Administrator may delegate ministerial, non-discretionary functions to individuals who are officers or employees of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or to third parties.
		
	4.
	SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN; SHARE LIMITS

4.1    Shares Available.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the capital stock that may be delivered under this Plan shall be shares of the Corporation’s 

4

authorized but unissued Common Stock and any shares of its Common Stock held as treasury shares.  For purposes of this Plan, “Common Stock” shall mean the common stock of the Corporation and such other securities or property as may become the subject of awards under this Plan, or may become subject to such awards, pursuant to an adjustment made under Section 7.1.
4.2    Share Limits.  The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted to Eligible Persons under this Plan (the “Share Limit”) is equal to the sum of the following:
		
	(1)
	20,500,0000 shares of Common Stock, plus

		
	(2)
	the number of shares of Common Stock available for additional award grant purposes under the Corporation’s 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2006 Plan”) as of the original date of stockholder approval of this Plan (the “Stockholder Approval Date”) and determined immediately prior to the termination of the authority to grant new awards under the 2006 Plan as of the Stockholder Approval Date, plus 

		
	(3)
	the number of any shares subject to stock options granted under the 2006 Plan and outstanding on the Stockholder Approval Date which expire, or for any reason are canceled or terminated, after the Stockholder Approval Date without being exercised, plus;

		
	(4)
	the number of any shares subject to restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2006 Plan that are outstanding and unvested on the Stockholder Approval Date that are forfeited, terminated, canceled or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation without having become vested. 

provided that in no event shall the Share Limit exceed 21,908,631 shares (which is the sum of the 20,500,000 shares set forth above, plus the number of shares available under the 2006 Plan for additional award grant purposes as of the Stockholder Approval Date plus the aggregate number of shares subject to awards previously granted and outstanding under the 2006 Plan as of the Stockholder Approval Date).
Effective as of July 29, 2014, Shares issued in respect of any “Full-Value Award” granted under this Plan shall be counted against the foregoing Share Limit as 2 shares for every one share actually issued in connection with such award.  (For example, if a stock bonus of 100 shares of Common Stock is granted under this Plan, 200 shares shall be charged against the Share Limit in connection with that award.)  For this purpose, a “Full-Value Award” means any award under this Plan that is not a stock option grant or a stock appreciation right grant. 

5

The following limits also apply with respect to awards granted under this Plan:  
		
	(a)
	The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be delivered pursuant to options qualified as incentive stock options granted under this Plan is 1,000,000 shares. 

		
	(b)
	The maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to those options and stock appreciation rights that are granted during any calendar year to any individual under this Plan is 1,000,000 shares.

		
	(c)
	Additional limits with respect to Performance-Based Awards are set forth in Section 5.2.3.

Each of the foregoing numerical limits is subject to adjustment as contemplated by Section 4.3, Section 7.1, and Section 8.10.
4.3    Awards Settled in Cash, Reissue of Awards and Shares.  Except as provided in the next sentence, shares that are subject to or underlie awards granted under this Plan which expire or for any reason are canceled or terminated, are forfeited, fail to vest, or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under this Plan shall again be available for subsequent awards under this Plan.  Shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Corporation as full or partial payment in connection with any stock option or stock appreciation right granted under this Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any stock option or stock appreciation right granted under this Plan, shall not be available for subsequent awards under this Plan.  After December 31, 2013, shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Corporation as full or partial payment in connection with any Full-Value Award granted under this Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any Full-Value Award granted under this Plan, shall be available for subsequent awards under this Plan, provided that when determining the number of shares that shall again become available for subsequent awards under this Plan, any one (1) share so exchanged or withheld in connection with any Full-Value Award shall be credited as the same number of shares as the shares underlying the related Full-Value Award were counted against the Share Limit.  (For example if, upon grant, 1,000 shares underlying the related Full-Value Award were counted as 2,000 shares against the Share Limit after applying the premium share counting ratio with respect to Full-Value Awards described above, the exchanged or withheld shares shall be credited back as 2,000 shares against the Share Limit.)  To the extent that an award granted under this Plan is settled in cash or a form other than shares of Common Stock, the shares that would have been delivered had there been no such cash or other settlement shall not be counted against the shares available for issuance under this Plan.  In the event that shares of Common Stock are delivered in respect of a dividend 

6

equivalent right granted under this Plan, the number of shares delivered with respect to the award shall be counted against the share limits of this Plan (including, for purposes of clarity, the limits of Section 4.2 of this Plan).  (For purposes of clarity, if 1,000 dividend equivalent rights are granted and outstanding when the Corporation pays a dividend, and 100 shares are delivered in payment of those rights with respect to that dividend, 200 shares shall be counted against the share limits of this Plan after applying the premium share counting ratio with respect to Full-Value Awards described above).  To the extent that shares of Common Stock are delivered pursuant to the exercise of a stock appreciation right or stock option granted under this Plan, the number of underlying shares as to which the exercise related shall be counted against the applicable share limits under Section 4.2, as opposed to only counting the shares issued.  (For purposes of clarity, if a stock appreciation right relates to 100,000 shares and is exercised at a time when the payment due to the participant is 15,000 shares, 100,000 shares shall be charged against the applicable share limits under Section 4.2 with respect to such exercise.) Refer to Section 8.10 for application of the foregoing share limits with respect to assumed awards.  The foregoing adjustments to the share limits of this Plan are subject to any applicable limitations under Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to awards intended as performance-based compensation thereunder.
4.4    Reservation of Shares; No Fractional Shares; Minimum Issue.  The Corporation shall at all times reserve a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to cover the Corporation’s obligations and contingent obligations to deliver shares with respect to awards then outstanding under this Plan (exclusive of any dividend equivalent obligations to the extent the Corporation has the right to settle such rights in cash).  No fractional shares shall be delivered under this Plan.  The Administrator may pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares in settlements of awards under this Plan.  The Administrator may from time to time impose a limit (of not greater than 100 shares) on the minimum number of shares that may be purchased or exercised as to awards granted under this Plan unless (as to any particular award) the total number purchased or exercised is the total number at the time available for purchase or exercise under the award.
		
	5.
	AWARDS

5.1    Type and Form of Awards.  The Administrator shall determine the type or types of award(s) to be made to each selected Eligible Person.  Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem.  Awards also may be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, as alternatives to, or as the payment form for grants or rights under any other employee or compensation plan of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries.  The types of awards that may be granted under this Plan are (subject, in each case, to the no repricing provisions of Section 3.2):

7

5.1.2    Stock Options.  A stock option is the grant of a right to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock during a specified period as determined by the Administrator.  An option may be intended as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (an “ISO”) or a nonqualified stock option (an option not intended to be an ISO).  The award agreement for an option will indicate if the option is intended as an ISO; otherwise it will be deemed to be a nonqualified stock option.  The maximum term of each option (ISO or nonqualified) shall be ten (10) years.  The per share exercise price for each option shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the option.  When an option is exercised, the exercise price for the shares to be purchased shall be paid in full in cash or such other method permitted by the Administrator consistent with Section 5.5.
5.1.3    Additional Rules Applicable to ISOs.  To the extent that the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time of grant of the applicable option) of stock with respect to which ISOs first become exercisable by a participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, taking into account both Common Stock subject to ISOs under this Plan and stock subject to ISOs under all other plans of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries (or any parent or predecessor corporation to the extent required by and within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), such options shall be treated as nonqualified stock options.  In reducing the number of options treated as ISOs to meet the $100,000 limit, the most recently granted options shall be reduced first.  To the extent a reduction of simultaneously granted options is necessary to meet the $100,000 limit, the Administrator may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by law, designate which shares of Common Stock are to be treated as shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO.  ISOs may only be granted to employees of the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries (for this purpose, the term “subsidiary” is used as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, which generally requires an unbroken chain of ownership of at least 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of each subsidiary in the chain beginning with the Corporation and ending with the subsidiary in question).  There shall be imposed in any award agreement relating to ISOs such other terms and conditions as from time to time are required in order that the option be an “incentive stock option” as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code.  No ISO may be granted to any person who, at the time the option is granted, owns (or is deemed to own under Section 424(d) of the Code) shares of outstanding Common Stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation, unless the exercise price of such option is at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option and such option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date such option is granted.
5.1.4    Stock Appreciation Rights.  A stock appreciation right or “SAR” is a right to receive a payment, in cash and/or Common Stock, equal to the excess of the fair market value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock on the date the 

8

SAR is exercised over the “base price” of the award, which base price shall be set forth in the applicable award agreement and shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the SAR.  The maximum term of a SAR shall be ten (10) years.
5.1.5    Other Awards; Dividend Equivalent Rights.  The other types of awards that may be granted under this Plan include: (a) stock bonuses, restricted stock, performance stock, stock units, phantom stock, or similar rights to purchase or acquire shares, whether at a fixed or variable price or ratio related to the Common Stock, upon the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions, or any combination thereof; (b) any similar securities with a value derived from the value of or related to the Common Stock and/or returns thereon; or (c) cash awards.  Dividend equivalent rights may be granted as a separate award or in connection with another award under this Plan; provided, however, that dividend equivalent rights may not be granted in connection with a stock option or SAR granted under this Plan.  In addition, any dividends and/or dividend equivalents as to the unvested portion of a restricted stock award that is subject to performance-based vesting requirements or the unvested portion of a stock unit award that is subject to performance-based vesting requirements will be subject to termination and forfeiture to the same extent as the corresponding portion of the award to which they relate.
5.2    Section 162(m) Performance-Based Awards.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any of the types of awards listed in Section 5.1.4 above may be, and options and SARs granted to officers and employees (“Qualifying Options” and “Qualifying SARS,” respectively) typically will be, granted as awards intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code (“Performance-Based Awards”).  The grant, vesting, exercisability or payment of Performance-Based Awards may depend (or, in the case of Qualifying Options or Qualifying SARs, may also depend) on the degree of achievement of one or more performance goals relative to a pre-established targeted level or levels using one or more of the Business Criteria set forth below (on an absolute basis or relative to the performance of other companies or upon comparisons of any of the indicators of performance relative to other companies) for the Corporation on a consolidated basis or for one or more of the Corporation’s subsidiaries, segments, divisions or business units, or any combination of the foregoing.  Any Qualifying Option or Qualifying SAR shall be subject only to the requirements of Section 5.2.1 and 5.2.3 in order for such award to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.  Any other Performance-Based Award shall be subject to all of the following provisions of this Section 5.2.

9

5.2.1    Class; Administrator.  The eligible class of persons for Performance-Based Awards under this Section 5.2 shall be officers and employees of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries.  The Administrator approving Performance-Based Awards or making any certification required pursuant to Section 5.2.4 must be constituted as provided in Section 3.1 for awards that are intended as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.
5.2.2    Performance Goals.  The specific performance goals for Performance-Based Awards (other than Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs) shall be, on an absolute or relative basis, or an absolute or relative per share basis, established based on one or more of the following business criteria (“Business Criteria”) as selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion: earnings per share, cash flow (which means cash and cash equivalents derived from either net cash flow from operations or net cash flow from operations, financing and investing activities), stock price, total stockholder return, gross revenue, revenue growth, operating income (before or after taxes), net earnings (before or after interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization), return on equity or on assets or on net investment, cost containment or reduction, gross or operating margins, productivity ratios, expenses, margins, operating efficiency, customer satisfaction, working capital, market share, economic value added (net operating profit after tax minus capital multiplied by the cost of capital), or any combination thereof.  To qualify awards as performance-based under Section 162(m), the applicable Business Criterion (or Business Criteria, as the case may be) and specific performance goal or goals (“targets”) must be established and approved by the Administrator during the first 90 days of the performance period (and, in the case of performance periods of less than one year, in no event after 25% or more of the performance period has elapsed) and while performance relating to such target(s) remains substantially uncertain within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code.  The terms of the Performance-Based Awards may specify the manner, if any, in which performance targets shall be adjusted to mitigate the unbudgeted impact of material, unusual or nonrecurring gains and losses, accounting changes or other items specified by the Administrator at the time of establishing the targets.  The applicable performance measurement period may not be less than three months nor more than 10 years.
5.2.3    Form of Payment; Maximum Performance-Based Award.  Grants or awards under this Section 5.2 may be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock or any combination thereof.  Grants of Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs to any one participant in any one calendar year shall be subject to the limit set forth in Section 4.2(b).  The maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be subject to Performance-Based Awards such as stock or unit awards denominated in shares of Common Stock and Performance-Based Awards denominated in cash where the amount of cash payable upon or following vesting of the award is determined with reference to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at such time that are granted to any one participant in any one calendar year shall not exceed 500,000 shares (counting such shares on a one-for-one basis for this 

10

purpose), either individually or in the aggregate, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7.1; provided that this limit shall not apply to Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs (which are covered by the limit of Section 4.2(b)).  The aggregate amount of compensation to be paid to any one participant in respect of all Performance-Based Awards denominated in cash where the payment amount does not fluctuate based on the fair market value of a share of Common Stock (for example, excluding cash awards covered by the preceding sentence where the cash payment is determined with reference to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock upon or following the vesting of the award) and granted to that participant in any one calendar year shall not exceed $5,000,000.  The foregoing cash and share limits (as well as the limit on Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs contained in Section 4.2(b)) are each intended to be separate (rather than mutually exclusive) limits and may be used in combination (as to any participant in any particular year and/or with respect to any particular award).  Awards that are cancelled during the year shall be counted against these limits to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code.
5.2.4    Certification of Payment.  Before any Performance-Based Award under this Section 5.2 (other than Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs) is paid and to the extent required to qualify the award as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator must certify in writing that the performance target(s) and any other material terms of the Performance-Based Award were in fact timely satisfied.
5.2.5    Reservation of Discretion.  The Administrator will have the discretion to determine the restrictions or other limitations of the individual awards granted under this Section 5.2 including the authority to reduce awards, payouts or vesting or to pay no awards, in its sole discretion, if the Administrator preserves such authority at the time of grant by language to this effect in its authorizing resolutions or otherwise.
5.2.6    Expiration of Grant Authority.  As required pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, the Administrator’s authority to grant new awards that are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code (other than Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs) shall terminate upon the first meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders that occurs in the fifth year following the year in which the Corporation’s stockholders most recently approved this Plan, subject to any subsequent extension that may be approved by stockholders.
5.3    Award Agreements.  Each award shall be evidenced by either (1) a written award agreement in a form approved by the Administrator and executed by the Corporation by an officer duly authorized to act on its behalf, or (2) an electronic notice of award grant in a form approved by the Administrator and recorded by the Corporation (or its designee) in an electronic recordkeeping system used for 

11

the purpose of tracking award grants under this Plan generally (in each case, an “award agreement”), as the Administrator may provide and, in each case and if required by the Administrator, executed or otherwise electronically accepted by the recipient of the award in such form and manner as the Administrator may require.  The Administrator may authorize any officer of the Corporation (other than the particular award recipient) to execute any or all award agreements on behalf of the Corporation.  The award agreement shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the award as established by the Administrator consistent with the express limitations of this Plan.
5.4    Deferrals and Settlements.  Payment of awards may be in the form of cash, Common Stock, other awards or combinations thereof as the Administrator shall determine, and with such restrictions as it may impose.  The Administrator may also require or permit participants to elect to defer the issuance of shares or the settlement of awards in cash under such rules and procedures as it may establish under this Plan.  The Administrator may also provide that deferred settlements include the payment or crediting of interest or other earnings on the deferral amounts, or the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents where the deferred amounts are denominated in shares.
5.5    Consideration for Common Stock or Awards.  The purchase price for any award granted under this Plan or the Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to an award, as applicable, may be paid by means of any lawful consideration as determined by the Administrator, including, without limitation, one or a combination of the following methods: 
		
	•
	services rendered by the recipient of such award; 

		
	•
	cash, check payable to the order of the Corporation, or electronic funds transfer; 

		
	•
	notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator; 

		
	•
	the delivery of previously owned shares of Common Stock; 

		
	•
	by a reduction in the number of shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the award; or 

		
	•
	subject to such procedures as the Administrator may adopt, pursuant to a “cashless exercise” with a third party who provides financing for the purposes of (or who otherwise facilitates) the purchase or exercise of awards.

In no event shall any shares newly-issued by the Corporation be issued for less than the minimum lawful consideration for such shares or for consideration other than consideration permitted by applicable state law.  Shares of Common Stock used to satisfy the exercise price of an option shall be valued at their fair market value on the date of exercise.  The Corporation will not be obligated to deliver any shares unless and until it receives full payment of the exercise or purchase price therefor and any related withholding obligations under Section 8.5 and any 

12

other conditions to exercise or purchase have been satisfied.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, the Administrator may at any time eliminate or limit a participant’s ability to pay the purchase or exercise price of any award or shares by any method other than cash payment to the Corporation.
5.6    Definition of Fair Market Value.  For purposes of this Plan, “fair market value” shall mean, unless otherwise determined or provided by the Administrator in the circumstances, the closing price (in regular trading) for a share of Common Stock as furnished by the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) for the date in question or, if no sales of Common Stock were reported by the Exchange on that date, the closing price (in regular trading) for a share of Common Stock as furnished by the Exchange for the next preceding day on which sales of Common Stock were reported by the Exchange.  The Administrator may, however, provide with respect to one or more awards that the fair market value shall equal the closing price (in regular trading) for a share of Common Stock as furnished by the Exchange on the last trading day preceding the date in question or the average of the high and low closing prices of a share of Common Stock as furnished by the Exchange for the date in question or the most recent trading day.  If the Common Stock is no longer listed or is no longer actively traded on the Exchange as of the applicable date, the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be the value as reasonably determined by the Administrator for purposes of the award in the circumstances.  The Administrator also may adopt a different methodology for determining fair market value with respect to one or more awards if a different methodology is necessary or advisable to secure any intended favorable tax, legal or other treatment for the particular award(s) (for example, and without limitation, the Administrator may provide that fair market value for purposes of one or more awards will be based on an average of closing prices (or the average of high and low daily trading prices) for a specified period preceding the relevant date).
5.7    Transfer Restrictions.
5.7.1    Limitations on Exercise and Transfer.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in (or pursuant to) this Section 5.7 or required by applicable law: (a) all awards are non- transferable and shall not be subject in any manner to sale, transfer, anticipation, alienation, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge; (b) awards shall be exercised only by the participant; and (c) amounts payable or shares issuable pursuant to any award shall be delivered only to (or for the account of) the participant.
5.7.2    Exceptions.  The Administrator may permit awards to be exercised by and paid to, or otherwise transferred to, other persons or entities pursuant to such conditions and procedures, including limitations on subsequent transfers, as the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, establish in writing.  Any permitted transfer shall be subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities 

13

laws and shall not be for value (other than nominal consideration, settlement of marital property rights, or for interests in an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are held by the Eligible Person or by the Eligible Person’s family members).
5.7.3    Further Exceptions to Limits on Transfer.  The exercise and transfer restrictions in Section 5.7.1 shall not apply to:
		
	(a)
	transfers to the Corporation (for example, in connection with the expiration or termination of the award),

		
	(b)
	the designation of a beneficiary to receive benefits in the event of the participant’s death or, if the participant has died, transfers to or exercise by the participant’s beneficiary, or, in the absence of a validly designated beneficiary, transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution,

		
	(c)
	subject to any applicable limitations on ISOs, transfers to a family member (or former family member) pursuant to a domestic relations order if approved or ratified by the Administrator,

		
	(d)
	if the participant has suffered a disability, permitted transfers or exercises on behalf of the participant by his or her legal representative, or

		
	(e)
	the authorization by the Administrator of “cashless exercise” procedures with third parties who provide financing for the purpose of (or who otherwise facilitate) the exercise of awards consistent with applicable laws and the express authorization of the Administrator.

5.8    International Awards.  One or more awards may be granted to Eligible Persons who provide services to the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries outside of the United States.  Any awards granted to such persons may be granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of any applicable sub-plans, if any, appended to this Plan and approved by the Administrator.
		
	6.
	EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE ON AWARDS

6.1    General.  The Administrator shall establish the effect of a termination of employment or service on the rights and benefits under each award under this Plan and in so doing may make distinctions based upon, inter alia, the cause of termination and type of award.  If the participant is not an employee of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries and provides other services to the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, the Administrator shall be the sole judge for purposes of this Plan (unless a contract or the award otherwise provides) of whether the participant continues to render services to the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries and the date, if any, upon which such services shall be deemed to have terminated.

14

6.2    Events Not Deemed Terminations of Service.  Unless the express policy of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, or the Administrator, otherwise provides, the employment relationship shall not be considered terminated in the case of (a) sick leave, (b) military leave, or (c) any other leave of absence authorized by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, or the Administrator; provided that, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or law or the Administrator otherwise provides, such leave is for a period of not more than three months.  In the case of any employee of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries on an approved leave of absence, continued vesting of the award while on leave from the employ of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries may be suspended until the employee returns to service, unless the Administrator otherwise provides or applicable law otherwise requires.  In no event shall an award be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the applicable award agreement.
6.3    Effect of Change of Subsidiary Status.  For purposes of this Plan and any award, if an entity ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation a termination of employment or service shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to each Eligible Person in respect of such Subsidiary who does not continue as an Eligible Person in respect of the Corporation or another Subsidiary that continues as such after giving effect to the transaction or other event giving rise to the change in status unless the Subsidiary that is sold, spun-off or otherwise divested (or its successor or a direct or indirect parent of such Subsidiary or successor) assumes the Eligible Person’s award(s) in connection with such transaction.
		
	7.
	ADJUSTMENTS; ACCELERATION

7.1    Adjustments.  Subject to Section 7.2, upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately prior to): any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a stock split in the form of a stock dividend) or reverse stock split; any merger, combination, consolidation, or other reorganization; any spin-off, split-up, or similar extraordinary dividend distribution in respect of the Common Stock; or any exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation, or any similar, unusual or extraordinary corporate transaction in respect of the Common Stock; then the Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust (1) the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities) that thereafter may be made the subject of awards (including the specific share limits, maximums and numbers of shares set forth elsewhere in this Plan), (2) the number, amount and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to any outstanding awards, (3) the grant, purchase, or exercise price (which term includes the base price of any SAR or similar right) of any outstanding awards, and/or (4) the securities, cash or other property deliverable upon exercise or payment of any outstanding awards, in each case to the extent necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this Plan and the then-outstanding awards.

15

Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately prior to) any event or transaction described in the preceding paragraph or a sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Corporation as an entirety, the Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust the performance standards applicable to any then-outstanding performance-based awards to the extent necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this Plan and the then-outstanding performance-based awards.
It is intended that, if possible, any adjustments contemplated by the preceding two paragraphs be made in a manner that satisfies applicable U.S. legal, tax (including, without limitation and as applicable in the circumstances, Section 424 of the Code, Section 409A of the Code and Section 162(m) of the Code) and accounting (so as to not trigger any charge to earnings with respect to such adjustment) requirements.
Without limiting the generality of Section 3.3, any good faith determination by the Administrator as to whether an adjustment is required in the circumstances pursuant to this Section 7.1, and the extent and nature of any such adjustment, shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.
7.2    Corporate Transactions - Assumption and Termination of Awards.  Upon the occurrence of any of the following: any merger, combination, consolidation, or other reorganization in connection with which the Corporation does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its Common Stock); any exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation in connection with which the Corporation does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its Common Stock); a sale of all or substantially all the business, stock or assets of the Corporation in connection with which the Corporation does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its Common Stock); a dissolution of the Corporation; or any other event in which the Corporation does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its Common Stock); then the Administrator may make provision for a cash payment in settlement of, or for the termination, assumption, substitution or exchange of any or all outstanding share-based awards or the cash, securities or property deliverable to the holder of any or all outstanding share-based awards, based upon, to the extent relevant under the circumstances, the distribution or consideration payable to holders of the Common Stock upon or in respect of such event.  Upon the occurrence of any event described in the preceding sentence, then, unless the Administrator has made a provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation or settlement of the award or (unless the Administrator has provided for the termination of the award) the award would otherwise continue in accordance with its terms in the circumstances: (1) unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, each then-outstanding option and SAR shall become fully vested,    all shares of restricted stock then 

16

outstanding shall fully vest free of restrictions, and each other award granted under this Plan that is then outstanding shall become payable to the holder of such award; and (2) each award shall terminate upon the related event; provided that the holder of an option or SAR shall be given reasonable advance notice of the impending termination and a reasonable opportunity to exercise his or her outstanding vested options and SARs (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting required in the circumstances) in accordance with their terms before the termination of such awards (except that in no case shall more than ten days’ notice of the impending termination be required and any acceleration of vesting and any exercise of any portion of an award that is so accelerated may be made contingent upon the actual occurrence of the event).
The Administrator may adopt such valuation methodologies for outstanding awards as it deems reasonable in the event of a cash or property settlement and, in the case of options, SARs or similar rights, but without limitation on other methodologies, may base such settlement solely upon the excess if any of the per share amount payable upon or in respect of such event over the exercise or base price of the award.
In any of the events referred to in this Section 7.2, the Administrator may take such action contemplated by this Section 7.2 prior to such event (as opposed to on the occurrence of such event) to the extent that the Administrator deems the action necessary to permit the participant to realize the benefits intended to be conveyed with respect to the underlying shares.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may deem an acceleration to occur immediately prior to the applicable event and/or reinstate the original terms of the award if an event giving rise to an acceleration does not occur.
Without limiting the generality of Section 3.3, any good faith determination by the Administrator pursuant to its authority under this Section 7.2 shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.
7.3    Other Acceleration Rules.  The Administrator may override the provisions of Section 7.2 by express provision in the award agreement and may accord any Eligible Person a right to refuse any acceleration, whether pursuant to the award agreement or otherwise, in such circumstances as the Administrator may approve.  The portion of any ISO accelerated in connection with an event referred to in Section 7.2 (or such other circumstances as may trigger accelerated vesting of the award) shall remain exercisable as an ISO only to the extent the applicable $100,000 limitation on ISOs is not exceeded.  To the extent exceeded, the accelerated portion of the option shall be exercisable as a nonqualified stock option under the Code.

	OTHER PROVISIONS

8.1    Compliance with Laws.  This Plan, the granting and vesting of awards under this Plan, the offer, issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock, and/or the payment of money under this Plan or under awards are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal securities law and federal margin requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith.  The person acquiring any securities under this Plan will, if requested by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, provide such assurances and representations to the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries as the Administrator may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal and accounting requirements.
8.2    No Rights to Award.  No person shall have any claim or rights to be granted an award (or additional awards, as the case may be) under this Plan, subject to any express contractual rights (set forth in a document other than this Plan) to the contrary.
8.3    No Employment/Service Contract.  Nothing contained in this Plan (or in any other documents under this Plan or in any award) shall confer upon any Eligible Person or other participant any right to continue in the employ or other service of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, constitute any contract or agreement of employment or other service or affect an employee’s status as an employee at will, nor shall interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries to change a person’s compensation or other benefits, or to terminate his or her employment or other service, with or without cause.  Nothing in this Section 8.3, however, is intended to adversely affect any express independent right of such person under a separate employment or service contract other than an award agreement.
8.4    Plan Not Funded.  Awards payable under this Plan shall be payable in shares or from the general assets of the Corporation, and no special or separate reserve, fund or deposit shall be made to assure payment of such awards.  No participant, beneficiary or other person shall have any right, title or interest in any fund or in any specific asset (including shares of Common Stock, except as expressly otherwise provided) of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries by reason of any award hereunder.  Neither the provisions of this Plan (or of any related documents), nor the creation or adoption of this Plan, nor any action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create, or be construed to create, a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries and any participant, beneficiary or other person.  To the extent that a participant, beneficiary or other person acquires a right to receive payment 

18

pursuant to any award hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Corporation.
8.5    Tax Withholding.  Upon any exercise, vesting, or payment of any award, or upon the disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO prior to satisfaction of the holding period requirements of Section 422 of the Code, or upon any other tax withholding event with respect to any award, the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries shall have the right at its option to:
		
	(a)
	require the participant (or the participant’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) to pay or provide for payment of at least the minimum amount of any taxes which the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such award event or payment; or

		
	(b)
	deduct from any amount otherwise payable in cash (whether related to the award or otherwise) to the participant (or the participant’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) the minimum amount of any taxes which the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such award event or payment.

In any case where a tax is required to be withheld in connection with the delivery of shares of Common Stock under this Plan, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (subject to Section 8.1) require or grant (either at the time of the award or thereafter) to the participant the right to elect, pursuant to such rules and subject to such conditions as the Administrator may establish, that the Corporation reduce the number of shares to be delivered by (or otherwise reacquire) the appropriate number of shares, valued in a consistent manner at their fair market value or at the sales price in accordance with authorized procedures for cashless exercises, necessary to satisfy the minimum applicable withholding obligation on exercise, vesting or payment.  In no event shall the shares withheld exceed the minimum whole number of shares required for tax withholding under applicable law.
8.6    Effective Date, Termination and Suspension, Amendments.
8.6.1    Effective Date.  This Plan was originally effective as of March 23, 2011, the date of its approval by the Board (the “Effective Date”).  This amended version of the Plan is effective as of May 1, 2014, the date the amended version of this Plan was approved by the Board (the “Amendment Date”).   This Plan shall be submitted for and subject to stockholder approval no later than twelve months after the Amendment Date.  Unless earlier terminated by the Board, this Plan shall terminate at the close of business on the day before the tenth anniversary of the Amendment Date.  After the termination of this Plan either upon such stated expiration date or its earlier termination by the Board, no additional awards may be 

19

granted under this Plan, but previously granted awards (and the authority of the Administrator with respect thereto, including the authority to amend such awards) shall remain outstanding in accordance with their applicable terms and conditions and the terms and conditions of this Plan.
8.6.2    Board Authorization.  The Board may, at any time, terminate or, from time to time, amend, modify or suspend this Plan, in whole or in part.  No awards may be granted during any period that the Board suspends this Plan.
8.6.3    Stockholder Approval.  To the extent then required by applicable law or any applicable listing agency or required under Sections 162, 422 or 424 of the Code to preserve the intended tax consequences of this Plan, or deemed necessary or advisable by the Board, any amendment to this Plan shall be subject to stockholder approval.
8.6.4    Amendments to Awards.  Without limiting any other express authority of the Administrator under (but subject to) the express limits of this Plan, the Administrator by agreement or resolution may waive conditions of or limitations on awards to participants that the Administrator in the prior exercise of its discretion has imposed, without the consent of a participant, and (subject to the requirements of Sections 3.2 and 8.6.5) may make other changes to the terms and conditions of awards.  Any amendment or other action that would constitute a repricing of an award is subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.2.
8.6.5    Limitations on Amendments to Plan and Awards.  No amendment, suspension or termination of this Plan or amendment of any outstanding award agreement shall, without written consent of the participant, affect in any manner materially adverse to the participant any rights or benefits of the participant or obligations of the Corporation under any award granted under this Plan prior to the effective date of such change.  Changes, settlements and other actions contemplated by Section 7 shall not be deemed to constitute changes or amendments for purposes of this Section 8.6.
8.7    Privileges of Stock Ownership.  Except as otherwise expressly authorized by the Administrator, a participant shall not be entitled to any privilege of stock ownership as to any shares of Common Stock not actually delivered to and held of record by the participant.  Except as expressly required by Section 7.1 or otherwise expressly provided by the Administrator, no adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights as a stockholder for which a record date is prior to such date of delivery.
8.8    Governing Law; Construction; Severability.
8.8.1    Choice of Law.  This Plan, the awards, all documents evidencing awards and all other related documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

20

8.8.2    Severability.  If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Plan shall continue in effect.
8.8.3    Plan Construction.
		
	(a)
	Rule 16b-3.  It is the intent of the Corporation that the awards and transactions permitted by awards be interpreted in a manner that, in the case of participants who are or may be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, qualify, to the maximum extent compatible with the express terms of the award, for exemption from matching liability under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall have no liability to any participant for Section 16 consequences of awards or events under awards if an award or event does not so qualify.

		
	(b)
	Section 162(m).  Awards under Section 5.1.4 to persons described in Section 5.2 that are either granted or become vested, exercisable or payable based on attainment of one or more performance goals related to the Business Criteria, as well as Qualifying Options and Qualifying SARs granted to persons described in Section 5.2, that are approved by a committee composed solely of two or more outside directors (as this requirement is applied under Section 162(m) of the Code) shall be deemed to be intended as performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code unless such committee provides otherwise at the time of grant of the award.  It is the further intent of the Corporation that (to the extent the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries or awards under this Plan may be or become subject to limitations on deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code) any such awards and any other Performance-Based Awards under Section 5.2 that are granted to or held by a person subject to Section 162(m) will qualify as performance-based compensation or otherwise be exempt from deductibility limitations under Section 162(m).

8.9    Captions.  Captions and headings are given to the sections and subsections of this Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference.  Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of this Plan or any provision thereof.
8.10    Stock-Based Awards in Substitution for Stock Options or Awards Granted by Other Corporation.  Awards may be granted to Eligible Persons in substitution for or in connection with an assumption of employee stock options, SARs, restricted stock or other stock-based awards granted by other entities to persons who are or who will become Eligible Persons in respect of the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, in connection with a distribution, merger or other reorganization by or with the granting entity or an affiliated entity, or the acquisition by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, of 

21

all or a substantial part of the stock or assets of the employing entity.  The awards so granted need not comply with other specific terms of this Plan, provided the awards reflect only adjustments giving effect to the assumption or substitution consistent with the conversion applicable to the Common Stock in the transaction and any change in the issuer of the security.  Any shares that are delivered and any awards that are granted by, or become obligations of, the Corporation, as a result of the assumption by the Corporation of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an acquired company (or previously granted by a predecessor employer (or direct or indirect parent thereof) in the case of persons that become employed by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries in connection with a business or asset acquisition or similar transaction) shall not be counted against the Share Limit or other limits on the number of shares available for issuance under this Plan.
8.11    Non-Exclusivity of Plan.  Nothing in this Plan shall limit or be deemed to limit the authority of the Board or the Administrator to grant awards or authorize any other compensation, with or without reference to the Common Stock, under any other plan or authority.
8.12    No Corporate Action Restriction.  The existence of this Plan, the award agreements and the awards granted hereunder shall not limit, affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation to make or authorize: (a) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the capital structure or business of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, (b) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation or change in the ownership of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, (c) any issue of bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the capital stock (or the rights thereof) of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, (d) any dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets or business of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Corporation or any Subsidiary.  No participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any claim under any award or award agreement against any member of the Board or the Administrator, or the Corporation or any employees, officers or agents of the Corporation or any Subsidiary, as a result of any such action.
8.13    Other Company Benefit and Compensation Programs.  Payments and other benefits received by a participant under an award made pursuant to this Plan shall not be deemed a part of a participant’s compensation for purposes of the determination of benefits under any other employee welfare or benefit plans or arrangements, if any, provided by the Corporation or any Subsidiary, except where the Administrator expressly otherwise provides or authorizes in writing.  Awards under this Plan may be made in addition to, in combination with, as alternatives to or in payment of grants, awards or commitments under any other plans or arrangements of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries.

22

8.14    Clawback Policy.  The awards granted under this Plan are subject to the terms of the Corporation’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as it may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of awards or any shares of Common Stock or other cash or property received with respect to the awards (including any value received from a disposition of the shares acquired upon payment of the awards).
