Plan, a stock option granted over shares of Class A Common Stock to an LLC Employee is duly exercised: 

(i)    The Corporation shall sell to the Optionee, and the Optionee shall purchase from the Corporation,
for a cash price per share equal to the Value of a share of Class A Common Stock at the time of the exercise, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient of (x) the exercise price payable by the Optionee in
connection with the exercise of such stock option divided by (y) the Value of a share of Class A Common Stock at the time of such exercise. 

(ii)    The Corporation shall sell to the Company (or if the Optionee is an employee of, or other service
provider to, a Subsidiary, the Corporation shall sell to such Subsidiary), and the Company (or such Subsidiary, as applicable) shall purchase from the Corporation, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the excess of (x) the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock as to which such stock option is being 

  
 18 

 
exercised over (y) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock sold pursuant to Section 3.10(b)(i) hereof. The purchase price per share of Class A Common
Stock for such sale of shares of Class A Common Stock to the Company (or such Subsidiary) shall be the Value of a share of Class A Common Stock as of the date of exercise of such stock option. 

(iii)    The Company shall transfer to the Optionee (or if the Optionee is an employee of, or other service
provider to, a Subsidiary, the Subsidiary shall transfer to the Optionee) at no additional cost to such LLC Employee and as additional compensation to such LLC Employee, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock described in
Section 3.10(b)(ii). 
 (iv)    The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable
after such exercise, make a Capital Contribution to the Company in an amount equal to all proceeds received (from whatever source, but excluding any payment in respect of payroll taxes or other withholdings) by the Corporation in connection with the
exercise of such stock option. The Corporation shall receive for such Capital Contribution, a number of Units equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which such option was exercised. 

(c)    Restricted Stock Granted to LLC Employees. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with any
Equity Plan (other than a Stock Option Plan), any shares of Class A Common Stock are issued to an LLC Employee (including any shares of Class A Common Stock that are subject to forfeiture in the event such LLC Employee terminates his or
her employment with the Company or any Subsidiary) in consideration for services performed for the Company or any Subsidiary: 

(i)    The Corporation shall issue such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as are to be issued
to such LLC Employee in accordance with the Equity Plan; 
 (ii)    On the date (such date, the
“Vesting Date”) that the Value of such shares is includible in taxable income of such LLC Employee, the following events will be deemed to have occurred: (a) the Corporation shall be deemed to have sold such shares of
Class A Common Stock to the Company (or if such LLC Employee is an employee of, or other service provider to, a Subsidiary, to such Subsidiary) for a purchase price equal to the Value of such shares of Class A Common Stock, (b) the
Company (or such Subsidiary) shall be deemed to have delivered such shares of Class A Common Stock to such LLC Employee, (c) the Corporation shall be deemed to have contributed the purchase price for such shares of Class A Common
Stock to the Company as a Capital Contribution, and (d) in the case where such LLC Employee is an employee of a Subsidiary, the Company shall be deemed to have contributed such amount to the capital of the Subsidiary; and 

(iii)    The Company shall issue to the Corporation on the Vesting Date a number of Units equal to the
number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued under Section 3.10(c)(i) in consideration for a Capital Contribution in cash in an amount equal to the product of (x) the number of such newly issued Units
multiplied by (y) the Value of a share of Class A Common Stock. 

  
 19 

 (d)    Future Stock Incentive Plans. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the Corporation from adopting, modifying or terminating stock incentive plans for the benefit of employees, directors or other business associates of the Corporation, the Company or any of their
respective Affiliates. The Members acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan is adopted, modified or terminated by the Corporation, amendments to this Section 3.10 may become necessary or advisable and
that any approval or consent to any such amendments requested by the Corporation shall be deemed granted by the Manager without the requirement of any further consent or acknowledgement of any other Member. 

(e)    Anti-dilution adjustments. For all purposes of this Section 3.10, the number of
shares of Class A Common Stock and the corresponding number of Common Units shall be determined after giving effect to all anti-dilution or similar adjustments that are applicable, as of the date of exercise or vesting, to the option, warrant,
restricted stock or other equity interest that is being exercised or becomes vested under the applicable Stock Option Plan or other Equity Plan and applicable award or grant documentation. 

Section 3.11    Dividend Reinvestment Plan, Cash Option Purchase Plan, Stock Incentive Plan
or Other Plan. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Article III, all amounts received or deemed received by the Corporation in respect of any dividend reinvestment plan, cash option purchase plan, stock incentive or other stock or
subscription plan or agreement, either (a) shall be utilized by the Corporation to effect open market purchases of shares of Class A Common Stock, or (b) if the Corporation elects instead to issue new shares of Class A Common
Stock with respect to such amounts, shall be contributed by the Corporation to the Company in exchange for additional Units. Upon such contribution, the Company will issue to the Corporation a number of Units equal to the number of new shares of
Class A Common Stock so issued. 
 ARTICLE IV. 

DISTRIBUTIONS 

Section 4.01    Distributions. 

(a)    Distributable Cash; Other Distributions. To the extent permitted by applicable Law and hereunder,
Distributions to Members may be declared by the Manager out of Distributable Cash or other funds or property legally available therefor in such amounts and on such terms (including the payment dates of such Distributions) as the Manager shall
determine using such record date as the Manager may designate; such Distributions shall be made to the Members as of the close of business on such record date on a pro rata basis in accordance with each Member’s Percentage Interest as of the
close of business on such record date; provided, however, that the Manager shall have the obligation to make Distributions as set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and 14.02; and provided further that, notwithstanding any
other provision herein to the contrary, no Distributions shall be made to any Member to the extent such Distribution would render the Company insolvent. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, insolvency means the inability of the Company to meet
its payment obligations when due. Promptly following the designation of a record date and the declaration of a Distribution pursuant to this Section 4.01(a), the Manager shall give notice to each Member of the record date,
the amount and the terms of the Distribution and the payment date thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, it is intended that 

  
 20 

 
the Manager shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and hereunder, have the right in its sole discretion to make Distributions to the Members pursuant to this
Section 4.01(a) in such amounts as shall enable the Corporation to pay dividends or to meet its obligations, including its obligations pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement (to the extent such obligations are not
otherwise able to be satisfied as a result of Tax Distributions required to be made pursuant to Section 4.01(b)). 

(b)    Tax Distributions. 

(i)    On or about each date (a “Tax Distribution Date”) that is five
(5) Business Days prior to each due date for the U.S. federal income tax return of a corporate calendar year taxpayer (without regard to extensions) (or, if earlier, the due date for the U.S. federal income tax return of the Corporation, as
determined without regard to extensions), the Company shall make a Distribution to each Member out of Distributable Cash, pro rata, in accordance with each Member’s Percentage Interest, in an amount sufficient to cause the Corporation to
receive a Distribution equal to the sum of (x) all of the Corporation’s U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax liabilities and (y) the amount necessary to satisfy the Corporation’s
obligations pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, in each case, during the Taxable Year period to which the tax-related distribution under this Section 4.01(b) relates (the
“Tax Distributions”). 
 (ii)    If a Member (other than the Corporation) has an
Assumed Tax Liability at a Tax Distribution Date in excess of the sum of the amount of Tax Distributions made to such Member under Section 4.01(b)(i) with respect to the relevant Taxable Year (such excess, a “Tax
Distribution Shortfall”), the Company shall make an additional Distribution to each Member (including the Corporation) out of Distributable Cash, pro rata, in accordance with each Member’s Percentage Interest, in an amount
sufficient to cause any Member with a Tax Distribution Shortfall to receive an amount equal to such Tax Distribution Shortfall. 

(iii)    If, on a Tax Distribution Date, there is insufficient Distributable Cash to distribute to the
Members the full amount of the Distributions to which such Members are otherwise entitled pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i) and Section 4.01(b)(ii), the Company shall make future Distributions
pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i) and Section 4.01(b)(ii) as soon as Distributable Cash becomes available sufficient to pay the remaining portion of such Distributions to which such Members are
otherwise entitled. 
 (iv)    In the event of any audit by, or similar event with, a taxing authority
that affects the calculation of the Corporation’s U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax liabilities for any Taxable Year, or in the event the Company files an amended tax return, any shortfall in
the amount of Tax Distributions received by the Corporation and the other Members for the relevant Taxable Years based on such recalculated tax liability promptly shall be distributed to the Corporation and such Members in accordance with
Section 4.01(b)(i) and Section 4.01(b)(ii), except, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent Distributions were made to such Members pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(i) and
Section 4.01(b)(ii) in the relevant Taxable Years sufficient to cover such shortfall. 

  
 21 

 (v)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Distributions
pursuant to this Section 4.01(b), if any, shall be made to a Member only to the extent all previous Distributions to such Member pursuant to Section 4.01(b) with respect to the relevant Taxable
Year are less than the Distributions such Member otherwise would have been entitled to receive with respect to such Taxable Year pursuant to this Section 4.01(b). 

Section 4.02    Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make any Distribution to any Member on account of any Company Interest if such Distribution would violate any applicable Law or the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

ARTICLE V. 
 CAPITAL ACCOUNTS;
ALLOCATIONS; TAX MATTERS 
 Section 5.01    Capital Accounts. 

(a)    The Company shall maintain a separate Capital Account for each Member according to the rules of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). For this purpose, the Company may (in the discretion of the Manager), upon the occurrence of the events specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), increase or decrease the Capital Accounts in
accordance with the rules of such Treasury Regulation and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) to reflect a revaluation of Company property. 

(b)    For purposes of computing the amount of any item of Company income, gain, loss or deduction to be allocated
pursuant to this Article V and to be reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Members, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (including any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for this purpose); provided, however, that: 

(i)    The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall include those items described
in Code Section 705(a)(l)(B) or Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are not deductible for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. 
 (ii)    If the Book Value of any Company property is adjusted pursuant to
Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such property. 

(iii)    Items of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to the disposition of Company property
having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Book Value of such property. 

(iv)    Items of depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions with respect to Company
property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the property’s Book Value in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g). 

  
 22 

 (v)    To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax
basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 732(d), 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to
the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis). 

Section 5.02    Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 5.03 and Section 5.04, Net Profits and Net Losses for any Fiscal Year or Fiscal Period shall be allocated among the Capital Accounts of the Members pro rata in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests. 
 Section 5.03    Special Allocations. 

(a)    Losses attributable to partner nonrecourse debt (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall
be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). If there is a net decrease during a Taxable Year in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(3)), Profits for
such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Taxable Years) shall be allocated to the Members in the amounts and of such character as determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). 

(b)    Nonrecourse deductions (as determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for any Taxable
Year shall be allocated pro rata among the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.03(a), if there is a net decrease in the Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each
Member shall be allocated Profits for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Taxable Years) in the amounts and of such character as determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f). This
Section 5.03(b) is intended to be a minimum gain chargeback provision that complies with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

(c)    If any Member that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or Distribution described in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6) has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any Taxable Year, computed after the application of Sections 5.03(a) and 5.03(b) but before the application of any
other provision of this Article V, then Profits for such Taxable Year shall be allocated to such Member in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. This Section 5.03(c) is intended
to be a qualified income offset provision as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. 

(d)    If the allocation of Net Losses to a Member as provided in Section 5.02 would create or
increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, there shall be allocated to such Member only that amount of Losses as will not create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. The Net Losses that would, absent the application of the preceding
sentence, otherwise be allocated to such Member shall be allocated to the other Members in accordance with their relative Percentage Interests, subject to this Section 5.03(d). 

  
 23 

 (e)    Profits and Losses described in
Section 5.01(b)(v) shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(j), (k) and
(m). 
 (f)    The allocations set forth in Section 5.03(a) through and including
Section 5.03(d) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 of the Treasury Regulations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be
consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to allocate Profit and Loss of the Company or make Distributions. Accordingly, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article V, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, income,
gain, deduction and loss shall be reallocated among the Members so as to eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations and thereby cause the respective Capital Accounts of the Members to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they
would have been if Profit and Loss (and such other items of income, gain, deduction and loss) had been allocated without reference to the Regulatory Allocations. In general, the Members anticipate that this will be accomplished by specially
allocating other Profit and Loss (and such other items of income, gain, deduction and loss) among the Members so that the net amount of the Regulatory Allocations and such special allocations to each such Member is zero. In addition, if in any
Fiscal Year or Fiscal Period there is a decrease in partnership minimum gain, or in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, and application of the minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Section 5.03(a) or
Section 5.03(b) would cause a distortion in the economic arrangement among the Members, the Members may, if they do not expect that the Company will have sufficient other income to correct such distortion, request the
Internal Revenue Service to waive either or both of such minimum gain chargeback requirements. If such request is granted, this Agreement shall be applied in such instance as if it did not contain such minimum gain chargeback requirement. 

Section 5.04    Final Allocations. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this
Agreement except Section 5.03, the Manager shall make appropriate adjustments to allocations of Profits and Losses to (or, if necessary, allocate items of gross income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company among) the
Members upon the liquidation of the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Treasury Regulations), the transfer of substantially all the Units (whether by sale or exchange or merger) or sale of all or substantially
all the assets of the Company, such that, to the maximum extent possible, the Capital Accounts of the Members are proportionate to their Percentage Interests. In each case, such adjustments or allocations shall occur, to the maximum extent possible,
in the Fiscal Year of the event requiring such adjustments or allocations. 

Section 5.05    Tax Allocations. 

(a)    The income, gains, losses, deductions and credits of the Company will be allocated, for federal, state and local
income tax purposes, among the Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses, deductions and credits among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts; provided that if any such allocation is not permitted by
the Code or other applicable Law, the Company’s subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and credits will be allocated among the Members so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital
Accounts. 

  
 24 

 (b)    Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with
respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with Code Section 704(c) so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for
federal income tax purposes and its Book Value using the traditional method, as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b). 

(c)    If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 5.01(b),
subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner
as under Code Section 704(c) using the traditional method, as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b). 

(d)    Allocations of tax credits, tax credit recapture, and any items related thereto shall be allocated to the Members
pro rata as determined by the Manager taking into account the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii). 

(e)    For purposes of determining a Member’s pro rata share of the Company’s “excess nonrecourse
liabilities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s interest in income and gain shall be in proportion to the Units held by such Member. 

(f)    Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.05 are solely for purposes of federal, state and
local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, Distributions or other Company items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. 

Section 5.06    Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Member. If
the Company is obligated to pay any amount to a Governmental Entity (or otherwise makes a payment to a Governmental Entity) that is specifically attributable to a Member or a Member’s status as such (including federal withholding taxes, state
personal property taxes, state unincorporated business taxes, U.S. federal income taxes as a result of Company obligations pursuant to the Revised Partnership Audit Provisions, but excluding payments such as professional association fees and the
like made voluntarily by the Company on behalf of any Member based upon such Member’s status as an employee of the Company), then such Person shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid (including interest, penalties and
related expenses). The Manager may offset Distributions to which a Person is otherwise entitled under this Agreement against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 5.06. A Member’s
obligation to make contributions to the Company under this Section 5.06 shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 5.06,
the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 5.06, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such
contribution with interest calculated at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus 300 basis points (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by Law). Each Member hereby agrees to furnish to the Company such
information and forms as required or reasonably requested in order to comply with any laws and regulations governing withholding of tax or in order to claim any reduced rate of, or exemption from, withholding to which the Member is legally entitled.

 ARTICLE VI. 

MANAGEMENT 

Section 6.01    Authority of Manager. 

(a)    Except for situations in which the approval of any Member(s) is specifically required by this Agreement,
(i) all management powers over the business and affairs of the Company shall be exclusively vested in the Corporation, as the sole managing member of the Company (the Corporation, in such capacity, the “Manager”) and
(ii) the Manager shall conduct, direct and exercise full control over all activities of the Company. The Manager shall be the “manager” of the Company for the purposes of the Delaware Act. Except as otherwise expressly provided for
herein and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Manager of all such powers and rights conferred on the Members by the Delaware Act with respect to the management and control of the
Company. Any vacancies in the position of Manager shall be filled in accordance with Section 6.04. 

(b)    The day-to-day business and
operations of the Company shall be overseen and implemented by officers of the Company (each, an “Officer” and collectively, the “Officers”), subject to the limitations imposed by the Manager. An
Officer may, but need not, be a Member. Each Officer shall be appointed by the Manager and shall hold office until his or her successor shall be duly designated and shall qualify or until his or her death or until he shall resign or shall have been
removed in the manner hereinafter provided. Any one Person may hold more than one office. Subject to the other provisions in this Agreement (including in Section 6.07 below), the salaries or other compensation, if any, of
the Officers of the Company shall be fixed from time to time by the Manager. The authority and responsibility of the Officers shall include, but not be limited to, such duties as the Manager may, from time to time, delegate to them and the carrying
out of the Company’s business and affairs on a day-to-day basis. The existing Officers of the Company as of the Effective Time shall remain in their respective
positions and shall be deemed to have been appointed by the Manager. All Officers shall be, and shall be deemed to be, officers and employees of the Company. An Officer may also perform one or more roles as an officer of the Manager. 

(c)    The Manager shall have the power and authority to effectuate the sale, lease, transfer, exchange or other
disposition of any, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including the exercise or grant of any conversion, option, privilege or subscription right or any other right available in connection with any assets at any time held by the
Company) or the merger, consolidation, reorganization or other combination of the Company with or into another entity. 
 Section
6.02    Actions of the Manager. The Manager may act through any Officer or through any other Person or Persons to whom authority and duties have been delegated pursuant to Section 6.07. 

Section 6.03    Resignation; No Removal. The Manager may resign at any time by giving written notice to
the Members. Unless otherwise specified in the notice, the resignation shall take effect upon receipt thereof by the Members, and the acceptance of the resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. For the avoidance of doubt, the Members
have no right under this Agreement to remove or replace the Manager. 

  
 26 

 Section 6.04    Vacancies. Vacancies in the position of
Manager occurring for any reason shall be filled, upon written notice to the Company, by the Corporation (or, if the Corporation has ceased to exist without any successor or assign, then by the holders of a majority in interest of the voting capital
stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such cessation) with a successor that is (a) a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Corporation, (b) a Person of which the Corporation is a wholly-owned Subsidiary, (c) a Person into which the
Corporation is merged or consolidated or (d) a transferee of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation. For the avoidance of doubt, the Members have no right under this Agreement to fill any vacancy in the position of Manager.
No appointment of a Person other than the Corporation (or its successor, as the case may be) as Manager shall be effective unless the Corporation (or its successor, as the case may be) and the new Manager provide all other Members with contractual
rights, directly enforceable by such other Members against the new Manager, to cause the new Manager to comply with all of the Manager’s obligations under this Agreement. 

Section 6.05    Transactions Between Company and Manager. The Manager may cause the Company to contract
and deal with the Manager, or any Affiliate of the Manager, provided such contracts and dealings (other than contracts and dealings between the Company and its Subsidiaries) are on terms comparable to and competitive with those available to the
Company from others dealing at arm’s length or are approved by the Members and otherwise are permitted by the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members hereby approve (i) each of the contracts or agreements between or
among the Manager, the Company and their respective Affiliates entered into on or prior to the date hereof in accordance with the First A&R LLC Agreement or that the board of managers has approved in connection with an initial public offering as
of the date hereof and (ii) any other contracts and dealings that are customary (and necessary or desirable for the proper implementation of the transaction structure) among a public corporation and its Subsidiaries following an initial public
offering pursuant to an “Up-C” structure in accordance with the terms hereof. 

Section 6.06    Reimbursement for Expenses. 

(a)    The Manager shall not be compensated for its services as Manager of the Company except as expressly provided in this
Agreement. The Members acknowledge and agree that, upon consummation of the IPO, the Manager’s Class A Common Stock will be publicly traded and therefore the Manager will have access to the public capital markets and that such status and
the services performed by the Manager will inure to the benefit of the Company and all Members; therefore, the Manager shall be reimbursed by the Company for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, including without limitation all fees, expenses and costs associated with the IPO and all fees, expenses and
costs of being a public company (including without limitation public reporting obligations, proxy statements, stockholder meetings, stock exchange fees, transfer agent fees, SEC and FINRA filing fees and offering expenses) and maintaining its
corporate existence. In the event that shares of Class A Common Stock are sold to underwriters in the IPO (or in any subsequent public offering) at a price per share that is lower than the price per share for which such shares of Class A
Common Stock are sold to the public in the IPO (or in such subsequent public offering, as applicable) after 

  
 27 

 
taking into account underwriters’ discounts or commissions and brokers’ fees or commissions (such difference, the “Discount”), the Company shall reimburse the
Manager for such Discount by treating such Discount as an additional Capital Contribution made by the Manager to the Company and increasing the Manager’s Capital Account by the amount of such Discount. To the extent practicable, expenses
incurred by the Manager on behalf of or for the benefit of the Company shall be billed directly to and paid by the Company and, if and to the extent any reimbursements to the Manager or any of its Affiliates by the Company pursuant to this
Section 6.06 constitute gross income to such Person (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by such Person on behalf of the Company), such amounts shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning
of Code Section 707(c) and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Members’ Capital Accounts. 
 (b)
    Notwithstanding Section 6.06(a), until the Tax Receivable Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Tax Receivable Agreement and the Early Termination Payment (as defined in the Tax Receivable
Agreement) has been paid to S&N, or, if earlier, the fifteenth anniversary of the date on which S&N ceases to be a Member of the Company, S&N shall promptly, but in any event within 30 days after receipt of an invoice therefor (which the
Company shall provide no more frequently than quarterly, on or promptly following the first day of each quarter), reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented
(i) out-of-pocket fees, expenses and costs associated with administering the Tax Receivable Agreement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any payments required
to be made by the Company to S&N thereunder, including pursuant to Sections 3.1(a) and 4.3(a) thereof) and (ii) incremental out-of-pocket fees, expenses and
costs incurred by the Company in connection with the administration of the tax and organizational functions of the Company that are reasonably determined to be in excess of the fees, expenses and costs that would have been incurred in connection
with the tax and organizational functions of the Corporation had it owned, immediately after the IPO, all of the outstanding equity interests of the Company; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary
contained herein, in no event shall S&N be obligated to pay more than $[●] per annum pursuant to this Section 6.06(b); and, provided further, that such amount shall not include the fees, expenses and costs of an initial public
offering pursuant to an “Up-C” structure incurred on or prior to the date hereof. 

Section 6.07    Delegation of Authority. The Manager (a) may, from time to time, delegate to one
or more Persons such authority and duties as the Manager may deem advisable, and (b) may assign titles (including, without limitation, chief executive officer, president, chief executive officer, chief financial officers, chief operating
officer, vice president, secretary, assistant secretary, treasurer or assistant treasurer) and delegate certain authority and duties to such Persons as the same may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time. Any number of titles
may be held by the same individual. The salaries or other compensation, if any, of such agents of the Company shall be fixed from time to time by the Manager, subject to the other provisions in this Agreement. 

Section 6.08    Limitation of Liability of Manager. 

(a)    Except as otherwise provided herein or in an agreement entered into by such Person and the Company, neither the
Manager nor any of the Manager’s Affiliates shall be liable to the Company or to any Member that is not the Manager for any act or omission performed or 

  
 28 

 
omitted by the Manager in its capacity as the sole managing member of the Company pursuant to authority granted to the Manager by this Agreement; provided, however, that, except as
otherwise provided herein, such limitation of liability shall not apply to the extent the act or omission was attributable to the Manager’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or knowing violation of Law or for any present or future
breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by the Manager or its Affiliates contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company. The Manager may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the
duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its agents, and shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent (so long as such agent was selected in good faith and with reasonable care).
The Manager shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts, including financial advisors, and any act of or failure to act by the Manager in good faith reliance on such advice shall in no
event subject the Manager to liability to the Company or any Member that is not the Manager. 
 (b)    Whenever in this
Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, the Manager is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “sole discretion” or “discretion,” with “complete discretion” or under a grant
of similar authority or latitude, the Manager shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, have no duty or obligation to give any
consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or other Members. 
 (c)    Whenever in this Agreement
the Manager is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “good faith” or under another express standard, the Manager shall act under such express standard and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, shall
not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, and, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as the Manager acts in good faith, the resolution,
action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Manager shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or impose liability upon the Manager or any of the Manager’s Affiliates. 

Section 6.09    Investment Company Act. The Manager shall use its best efforts to ensure that the
Company shall not be subject to registration as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act. 

Section 6.10    Outside Activities of the Manager. The Manager shall not, directly or indirectly, enter
into or conduct any business or operations, other than (a) the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Common Units, (b) the management of the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (c) the operation of the
Manager as a reporting company with a class (or classes) of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and listed on a securities exchange, (d) the offering, sale, syndication, private placement or public offering of stock,
bonds, securities or other interests of the Manager, (e) financing or refinancing of any type related to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their assets or activities, and (f) such activities as are incidental to the foregoing; provided,
however, that, except as otherwise provided herein, the net proceeds of any financing raised by the Manager pursuant to the preceding clauses (d) and (e) shall be made available to the Company, whether as Capital Contributions, loans or
otherwise, as appropriate, and, provided further, that the Manager may, in its sole and absolute discretion, 

  
 29 

 
from time to time hold or acquire assets in its own name or otherwise other than through the Company and its Subsidiaries so long as the Manager takes commercially reasonable measures to ensure
that the economic benefits and burdens of such assets are otherwise vested in the Company or its Subsidiaries, through assignment, mortgage loan or otherwise or, if it is not commercially reasonable to vest such economic interests in the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to reflect such activities and the direct ownership of assets by the Manager. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit the Manager from executing
any guarantee of indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries. 
 ARTICLE VII. 

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF MEMBERS 

Section 7.01    Limitation of Liability and Duties of Members. 

(a)    No Member (including without limitation, the Manager) shall be obligated personally for any debts, obligation or
liability of the Company or any debts, obligation or liability solely by reason of being a Member or acting as the Manager of the Company, except to the extent required by the Delaware Act. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business and affairs under this Agreement or the Delaware Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on
the Members for liabilities of the Company. 
 (b)    In accordance with the Delaware Act and the laws of the State of
Delaware, a Member may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Member. It is the intent of the Members that no Distribution to any Member pursuant to Article IV shall be deemed a return of
money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Delaware Act. The payment of any such money or Distribution of any such property to a Member shall be deemed to be a compromise within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the
Delaware Act, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any Member receiving any such money or property shall not be required to return any such money or property to the Company or any other Person. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction
holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Member is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Member and not of any other Member. 

(c)    Notwithstanding Section 7.02 below or any other provision to the contrary in this
Agreement, (i) the Manager shall, in its capacity as Manager, and not in any other capacity, have the same fiduciary duties to the Company and the Members as a member of the board of directors of a Delaware corporation (assuming such
corporation had in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating the liabilities of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law); (ii) the parties hereto
acknowledge that the Manager will take action through its board of directors, and that the members of the Manager’s board of directors will owe fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Manager; and (iii) the Manager will use
commercially reasonable and appropriate efforts and means, as determined in good faith by the Manager, to minimize any conflict of interest between the Members, on the one hand, and the stockholders of the Manager, on the other hand, and to

  
 30 

 
effectuate any transaction that involves or affects any of the Company, the Manager, the Members and/or the stockholders of the Manager in a manner that does not (x) disadvantage the Members
of their interests relative to the stockholders of the Manager, (y) advantage the stockholders of the Manager relative to the Members or (z) treat the Members and the stockholders of the Manager differently; provided that in the event of a
conflict between the interests of the stockholders of the Manager and the interests of the Members other than the Manager, such other Members agree that the Manager shall discharge its fiduciary duties to such other Members by acting in the best
interests of the Manager’s stockholders. For the avoidance of doubt, the fiduciary duties described in clause (i) above shall not be limited by the fact that the Manager shall be permitted to take certain actions in its sole or reasonable
discretion pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any agreement entered into in connection herewith. Any duties and liabilities set forth in this Agreement shall replace those existing at Law or in equity (including the duties of the Manager and
any Member) and each of the Company and each Member hereby, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Delaware Act: (i) acknowledges and agrees that none of the Members, their respective
Affiliates or its or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, acting in his or her capacity as such, shall be obligated to (A) reveal to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries confidential
information belonging to or relating to the business of such Person or any of its Affiliates or (B) recommend or to take any action in its capacity as such that prefers the interest of the Company or its Subsidiaries over the interest of such
Person; and (ii) waives the right to make any claim, bring any action or seek any recovery based on any duties or liabilities existing at Law or in equity (including the duties of the Manager and any Member) other than any such duties and
liabilities set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7.01(c) shall survive any amendment, repeal or termination of this Agreement. 

(d)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (subject to Section 6.08 and
Section 7.01(c) with respect to the Manager), to the extent that, at Law or in equity, any Member (or any Member’s Affiliate or any manager, managing member, general partner, director, officer, employee, agent,
fiduciary or trustee of any Member or of any Affiliate of a Member) has duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, to the Manager, to another Member, to any Person who acquires an interest in a Company Interest or to any other Person bound
by this Agreement, all such duties (including fiduciary duties) are hereby eliminated, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, and replaced with the duties or standards expressly set forth herein, if any. The elimination of duties (including
fiduciary duties) to the Company, the Manager, each of the Members, each other Person who acquires an interest in a Company Interest and each other Person bound by this Agreement and replacement thereof with the duties or standards expressly set
forth herein, if any, are approved by the Company, the Manager, each of the Members, each other Person who acquires an interest in a Company Interest and each other Person bound by this Agreement. 

Section 7.02    Corporate Opportunities. Subject to
Section 6.08 and Section 7.01(c) with respect to the Manager: 

(a)    In no event shall any Member be liable to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or to any party hereto for
breaches of fiduciary or other similar duties by virtue of the fact that such Person fails to bring a business opportunity to the attention of the Company or any 

  
 31 

 
Subsidiary of the Company or presents a business opportunity to a Member or an Affiliate of a Member (rather than, or in addition to, presenting such opportunity to the Company). This
Section 7.02 shall not apply to any Member who is an employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation (including the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company). 

(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Members expressly acknowledge and agree that (i) each
Member and its Affiliates are permitted to have, and may presently or in the future have, investments or other business relationships, ventures, agreements or arrangements with, or ownership of, entities engaged in the same or a similar business to
the business conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries, and in related businesses other than through the Company and its Subsidiaries (an “Other Business”), (ii) each Member or its Affiliates have or may develop a
strategic relationship with businesses that are or may be competitive with the Company and its Subsidiaries, (iii) no Member or its Affiliates will be prohibited by virtue of their investment in the Company and its Subsidiaries from pursuing
and engaging in any such activities, (iv) no Member or its Affiliates will be obligated to inform the Company of any such opportunity, relationship or investment, (v) the other Members will not acquire, be provided with an option or
opportunity to acquire or be entitled to any interest or participation in any Other Business as a result of the participation therein of a Member or its Affiliates, (vi) the Members expressly waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Law, any rights to assert any claim that such involvement breaches any duty owed to any Member, or the Company or its Subsidiaries or to assert that such involvement constitutes a conflict of interest by such Persons with respect to the Company or
its Subsidiaries and (vii) nothing contained herein shall limit, prohibit or restrict any Member or any of its Affiliates from serving on the board of directors or other governing body or committee of any Other Business.
This Section 7.02(b) shall not apply to the Corporation or any Member who is an employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation (including the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company). 

Section 7.03    Lack of Authority. No Member, other than the Manager or a duly appointed
Officer, in each case in its capacity as such, has the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Company, to do any act that would be binding on the Company or to make any expenditure on behalf of the Company. The Members hereby consent to
the exercise by the Manager of the powers conferred on them by Law and this Agreement. 

Section 7.04    No Right of Partition. No Member, other than the Manager, shall have the
right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation of Law of any Company property, or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Company. 

Section 7.05    Indemnification. 

(a)    Subject to Section 5.06, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any
Person (each an “Indemnified Person”) to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution
or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Company is providing immediately prior to such amendment), against all expenses, liabilities,
damages and losses (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, 

  
 32 

 
amounts paid in settlement, fines, excise taxes, interest or penalties) incurred or suffered by such Person (or one or more of such Person’s Affiliates) by reason of the fact that such
Person is or was a Member or an Affiliate thereof (other than as a result of an ownership interest in the Corporation) or is or was serving as the Manager, a manager, Officer, employee or other agent of the Company or is or was serving at the
request of the Company as a manager, officer, director, principal, member, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise in connection with any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, relating to such Person’s status or service as such; provided, however, that no Indemnified Person shall be indemnified for any expenses, liabilities, damages and losses suffered
that are (i) attributable to such Indemnified Person’s or its Affiliates’ gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or knowing violation of Law or for any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or
covenants by such Indemnified Person or its Affiliates contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company or (ii) in connection with (x) an action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by the Indemnified Person or
(y) an action, suit or proceeding commenced by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries against the Indemnified Person. Expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by any such Indemnified Person in defending a proceeding shall be paid by
the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such
Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. 
 (b)    The right to indemnification and the
advancement of expenses conferred in this Section 7.05 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any Person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, agreement, bylaw, action by the Manager or otherwise. 

(c)    The Company shall maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, or substantially equivalent
insurance, at its expense, to protect any Indemnified Person against any expense, liability or loss described in Section 7.05(a) whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Indemnified Person against
such expense, liability or loss under the provisions of this Section 7.05. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to purchase and maintain property, casualty and liability insurance in types and at levels
customary for companies of similar size engaged in similar lines of business, as determined in good faith by the Manager, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to purchase directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance (including employment practices coverage) with a carrier and in an amount determined necessary or desirable as determined in good faith by the Manager. 

(d)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (including in this
Section 7.05), the Company agrees that any indemnification and advancement of expenses available to any current or former Indemnified Person from any Member or Affiliate thereof who served as a director of the Company or as
a Member of the Company by virtue of such Person’s service as a member, director, partner or employee of any such Member prior to or following the Effective Time (any such Person, a “Specified Person”) shall be secondary
to the indemnification and advancement of expenses to be provided the Company pursuant to this Section 7.05 which shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only and no Member (unless such Member otherwise
agrees in writing or is found in a final decision by a 

  
 33 

 
court of competent jurisdiction to have personal liability on account thereof) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to
help satisfy such indemnity of the Company and the Company (i) shall be the primary indemnitor of first resort for such Specified Person pursuant to this Section 7.05 and (ii) shall be fully responsible for the
advancement of all expenses and the payment of all damages or liabilities with respect to such Specified Person which are addressed by this Section 7.05. 

(e)    If this Section 7.05 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any
court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 7.05 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this
Section 7.05 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. 

(f)    Neither the amendment of this Section 7.05, nor, to the fullest extent permitted by
Delaware Law, any modification of Law, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Section 7.05 in respect of any acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or modification. 

Section 7.06    Members Right to Act. For matters that require the approval of the
Members, the Members shall act through meetings and written consents as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) below: 

(a)    Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement, acts by the Members holding a majority of the Units,
voting together as a single class, shall be the acts of the Members. Any Member entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to express consent or dissent to Company action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act
for it by proxy. An electronic mail, telegram, telex, cablegram or similar transmission by the Member, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of a writing executed by the Member shall (if stated thereon) be treated as a
proxy executed in writing for purposes of this Section 7.06(a). No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after eleven months from the date thereof, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be revocable
unless the proxy form conspicuously states that the proxy is irrevocable and that the proxy is coupled with an interest. Should a proxy designate two or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority
of such Persons present at any meeting at which their powers thereunder are to be exercised shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or, if only one be present, then such powers may be exercised by
that one; or, if an even number attend and a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of
such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue. 
 (b)    The actions by the Members permitted hereunder may be
taken at a meeting called by the Manager or by the Members holding a majority of the Units entitled to vote on such matter on at least 120 hours’ prior written notice to the other Members entitled to vote, which notice shall state the purpose
or purposes for which such meeting is being called. The actions taken by the Members entitled to vote or consent at any meeting (as opposed to by written consent), however called and noticed, shall be as valid as though taken at a meeting duly held
after regular call and notice if (but not until), either before, at or after the meeting, the Members 

  
 34 

 
entitled to vote or consent as to whom it was improperly held signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. The actions by
the Members entitled to vote or consent may be taken by vote of the Members entitled to vote or consent at a meeting or by written consent, so long as such consent is signed by Members having not less than the minimum number of Units that would be
necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of the action so taken, which shall state the purpose or purposes for which such consent is required and may
be delivered via email, without a meeting shall be given to those Members entitled to vote or consent who have not consented in writing; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not affect the validity of the action
taken by such written consent. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent of the Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting thereof. 

Section 7.07    Inspection Rights. The Company shall permit each Member and each of its
designated representatives to (i) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, all at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, (ii) examine the corporate and financial records of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom, (iii) consult with the managers, officers, employees and independent accountants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries concerning the affairs, finances and accounts of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case including, without limitation, in the case of S&N, for purposes of S&N verifying any amounts claimed by the Company to be reimbursable pursuant to Section 6.06(b).
The presentation of an executed copy of this Agreement by any Member to the Company’s independent accountants shall constitute the Company’s permission to its independent accountants to participate in discussions with such Persons and
their respective designated representatives. 
 ARTICLE VIII. 

BOOKS, RECORDS, ACCOUNTING AND REPORTS, AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 

Section 8.01    Records and Accounting. The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept,
appropriate books and records with respect to the Company’s business, including all books and records necessary to provide any information, lists and copies of documents required to be provided pursuant to Section 8.03
or pursuant to applicable Laws. All matters concerning (a) the determination of the relative amount of allocations and Distributions among the Members pursuant to Articles III and IV and (b) accounting procedures and
determinations, and other determinations not specifically and expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement, shall be determined by the Manager, whose determination shall be final and conclusive as to all of the Members absent manifest
clerical error.

end on December 31 of each year or such other date as may be established by the Manager. 

Section 8.03    Reports. The Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered, within

and timely filing of all tax returns required to be filed by the Company. The Manager shall select an “Income Tax Return Preparer” for the Company as defined in Section 7701(a)(36) of the Code, not taking into account
Section 7701(a)(36)(B), which at all times shall be a nationally recognized accounting firm; provided as long as S&N is a 9.9% Member, such selection shall be subject to the approval of S&N, which shall not be unreasonably

 Section 9.03    Tax
Controversies. The Manger shall cause the Company to take all necessary actions required by Law to designate the Corporation as the “tax matters partner” within the meaning given to such term in Section 6231 of the Code (as in

shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Corporation (or its designated individual, as applicable) to become the Partnership Representative with respect to any taxable period of the Company with respect to which the statute of limitations has

pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.6231(a)(7)-1(d) and completing IRS Form 8970 or any other form or certificate required pursuant to Treasury Regulation

connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Company funds for professional services reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Each
Member agrees to cooperate with the Company and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Company with respect to the conduct of such proceedings. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any
audit or other proceeding, the Partnership Representative shall be entitled to cause the Company (and any of its Subsidiaries) to make any available elections pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code (and similar provisions of state, local and
other Law), and the Members shall cooperate to the extent reasonably requested by the Company in connection therewith. The Partnership Representative shall keep any 9.9% Member fully advised on a current basis of any contacts by or discussions with
the tax authorities, and the 9.9% Members shall have the right to observe and participate through representatives of their own choosing (at their sole expense) in any tax proceedings. The Company shall reimburse the Partnership Representative for
all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Partnership Representative, including reasonable fees of any professional attorneys, in carrying out its duties as
the Partnership Representative. The provisions of this Section 9.03 shall survive the transfer or termination of any Member’s interest in any Units of the Company, the termination of this Agreement and the termination
of the Company, and shall remain binding on each Member for the period of time necessary to resolve all tax matters relating to the Company, and shall be subject to the provisions of the Tax Receivable Agreement, as applicable.

Member’s (or subsequent transferee’s) Common Units that were transferred in the transaction to such transferee. All Permitted Transfers are subject to the additional limitations set forth in Section 10.07(b). 

Section 10.03    Restricted Units Legend. The Units have not been registered under the
Securities Act and, therefore, in addition to the other restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is then available. To the
extent such Units have been certificated, each certificate evidencing Units and each certificate issued in exchange for or upon the Transfer of any Units (if such securities remain Units as defined herein after such Transfer) shall be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE
ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON [●], 2021, AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SPECIFIED IN THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT OF BIOVENTUS LLC, AS MAY
BE AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND BIOVENTUS LLC RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE THE TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES 

  
 38 

 
UNTIL SUCH CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER. A COPY OF SUCH CONDITIONS SHALL BE FURNISHED BY BIOVENTUS LLC TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT
CHARGE.” 
 The Company shall imprint such legend on certificates (if any) evidencing Units. The legend set forth above shall be removed from the
certificates (if any) evidencing any units which cease to be Units in accordance with the definition thereof. 

Section 10.04    Transfer. Prior to Transferring any Units (other than pursuant to a
Change of Control Transaction), the Transferring Holder of Units shall cause the prospective Transferee to be bound by this Agreement as provided in Section 10.02 and any other agreements executed by the holders of Units
and relating to such Units in the aggregate (collectively, the “Other Agreements”), and shall cause the prospective Transferee to execute and deliver to the Company and the other holders of Units counterparts of this
Agreement and any applicable Other Agreements. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Units in violation of any provision of this Agreement (including any prohibited indirect Transfers) (a) shall be void, and (b) the Company shall not
record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported Transferee of such Units as the owner of such securities for any purpose. 

Section 10.05    Assignee’s Rights. 

(a)    The Transfer of a Company Interest in accordance with this Agreement shall be effective as of the date of its
assignment (assuming compliance with all of the conditions to such Transfer set forth herein), and such Transfer shall be shown on the books and records of the Company. Profits, Losses and other Company items shall be allocated between the
transferor and the Assignee according to Code Section 706, using any permissible method as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Manager. Distributions made before the effective date of such Transfer shall be paid to the transferor,
and Distributions made after such date shall be paid to the Assignee. 
 (b)    Unless and until an Assignee becomes a
Member pursuant to Article XII, the Assignee shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder or under applicable Law, other than the rights granted specifically to Assignees pursuant to this Agreement; provided,
however, that, without relieving the transferring Member from any such limitations or obligations as more fully described in Section 10.06, such Assignee shall be bound by any limitations and obligations of a Member
contained herein that a Member would be bound on account of the Assignee’s Company Interest (including the obligation to make Capital Contributions on account of such Company Interest). 

Section 10.06    Assignor’s Rights and Obligations. Any Member who
shall Transfer any Company Interest in a manner in accordance with this Agreement shall cease to be a Member with respect to such Units or other interest and shall no longer have any rights or privileges, or, except as set forth in this
Section 10.06, duties, liabilities or obligations, of a Member with respect to such Units or other interest (it being understood, however, that the applicable provisions of Sections 6.08 and 7.05 shall
continue to inure to such Person’s benefit), except that unless and until the Assignee (if not already a Member) is admitted as a Substituted Member in 

  
 39 

 
accordance with the provisions of Article XII (the “Admission Date”), (i) such assigning Member shall retain all of the duties, liabilities and obligations of a
Member with respect to such Units or other interest, and (ii) the Manager may, in its sole discretion, reinstate all or any portion of the rights and privileges of such Member with respect to such Units or other interest for any period of time
prior to the Admission Date. Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Member who Transfers any Units or other interest in the Company from any liability of such Member to the Company with respect to such Company Interest that may exist on the
Admission Date or that is otherwise specified in the Delaware Act and incorporated into this Agreement or for any liability to the Company or any other Person for any materially false statement made by such Member (in its capacity as such) or for
any present or future breaches of any representations, warranties or covenants by such Member (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in the other agreements with the Company. 

Section 10.07    Overriding Provisions. 

(a)    Any Transfer in violation of this Article X shall be null and void ab initio, and the provisions of
Sections 10.05 and 10.06 shall not apply to any such Transfers. For the avoidance of doubt, any Person to whom a Transfer is made or attempted in violation of this Article X shall not become a Member, shall not be
entitled to vote on any matters coming before the Members and shall not have any other rights in or with respect to any rights of a Member of the Company. The approval of any Transfer in any one or more instances shall not limit or waive the
requirement for such approval in any other or future instance. The Manager shall promptly amend the Schedule of Members to reflect any Permitted Transfer pursuant to this Article X. 

(b)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of
Section 10.01 and Article XI and Article XII), in no event shall any Member Transfer any Units to the extent such Transfer would: 

(i)    result in the violation of the Securities Act, or any other applicable federal, state or foreign
Laws; 
 (ii)    in the reasonable determination of the Manager, be a violation of or a default (or an
event that, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in an acceleration of any indebtedness under, any promissory note, mortgage, loan agreement, indenture or similar instrument or agreement to which the
Company or the Manager is a party; provided that (x) the payee or creditor to whom the Company or the Manager owes such obligation is not an affiliate of the Company or the Manager and (y) such indebtedness, individually or in the
aggregate, has an aggregate principal amount of loans or revolving commitments then outstanding that is greater than $10,000,000; 

(iii)    cause the Company to lose its status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes or, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Transfer was effected on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof,” as such terms are used in Section 1.7704-1 of the Treasury Regulations; 

  
 40 

 (iv)    be a Transfer to a Person who is not legally
competent or who has not achieved his or her majority under applicable Law (excluding trusts for the benefit of minors); 

(v)    cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” or to be taxed as a
corporation pursuant to Section 7704 of the Code or successor provision of the Code; or 

(vi)    result in the Company having more than one hundred (100) partners, within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(1) (determined pursuant to the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)). 

ARTICLE XI. 
 REDEMPTION AND
EXCHANGE RIGHTS 
 Section 11.01    Redemption Right of a Member. 

(a)    Each Member (other than the Corporation) shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem (a
“Redemption”) its Common Units in whole or in part (the “Redemption Right”) at any time and from time to time following the Effective Time in accordance with this Section 11.01. A Member desiring
to exercise its Redemption Right (the “Redeeming Member”) shall exercise such right by giving written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) to the Company with a copy to the Corporation. The Redemption
Notice shall specify (i) the number of Common Units (the “Redeemed Units”) that the Redeeming Member intends to have the Company redeem, (ii) whether the Redeeming Member is electing a Share Settlement or a Cash
Settlement and (iii) a date, not less than five (5) Business Days after delivery of such Redemption Notice (unless and to the extent that the Manager in its sole discretion agrees in writing to waive such time period), on which the
Redemption shall be completed (the “Redemption Date”); provided that the Redeeming Member may change the number of Redeemed Units, the requested settlement method and/or the Redemption Date specified in such Redemption
Notice to another number, settlement method and/or date by written notice delivered on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date; provided further that a Redemption Notice may condition a Redemption on
(A) the closing of an underwritten distribution of the shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued in connection with such proposed Redemption or (B) the consummation of a purchase by another Person (whether in a tender or
exchange offer, an underwritten offering or otherwise) of shares of Class A Common Stock for which the Redeemed Units are redeemable, or contingent (including as to timing) upon the closing of an announced merger, consolidation or other
transaction or event in which the Class A Common Stock would be exchanged or converted or become exchangeable for or convertible into cash or other securities or property. Unless the Redeeming Member timely has delivered a Retraction Notice as
provided in Section 11.01(b) or has revoked or delayed a Redemption as provided in Section 11.01(c), on the Redemption Date (to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the
Redemption Date) (i) the Redeeming Member shall transfer and surrender the Redeemed Units to the Company, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances (except those arising hereunder or under applicable securities Laws), and (ii) the
Company shall (x) cancel the Redeemed Units, (y) transfer to the Redeeming Member the consideration to which the Redeeming Member is entitled under Section 11.01(b), and (z) if the Units are certificated,
issue 

  
 41 

 
to the Redeeming Member a certificate for a number of Common Units equal to the difference (if any) between the number of Common Units evidenced by the certificate surrendered by the Redeeming
Member pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 11.01(a) and the Redeemed Units. 

(b)    In exercising its Redemption Right, a Redeeming Member shall be entitled to receive the Share Settlement or the
Cash Settlement, as specified in the Redemption Notice; provided that if the Redeeming Member has elected a Cash Settlement in the Redemption Notices, the Corporation shall have the option as provided in
Section 11.02 and subject to Section 11.01(d) to select whether the redemption payment is made by means of a Share Settlement or a Cash Settlement. Within three (3) Business Days after
delivery of a Redemption Notice pursuant to which the Redeeming Member has elected Cash Settlement, the Corporation shall give written notice (the “Contribution Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to the Redeeming Member) of
its intended settlement method; provided that if the Corporation does not timely deliver a Contribution Notice, the Corporation shall be deemed to have elected the Share Settlement method. If the Redeeming Member elects Cash Settlement in the
Redemption Notice and the Corporation elects Share Settlement (including if the Corporation does not timely deliver a Contribution Notice), the Redeeming Member may retract its Redemption Notice by giving written notice (the “Retraction
Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to the Corporation) within two (2) Business Days after delivery of the Contribution Notice. The timely delivery of a Retraction Notice shall terminate all of the Redeeming Member’s,
Company’s and the Corporation’ rights and obligations under this Section 11.01 arising from the Redemption Notice. 

(c)    In the event a Redemption will settle via Share Settlement in accordance with Section 11.01(b), a Redeeming
Member shall be entitled to revoke its Redemption Notice or delay the consummation of a Redemption if any of the following conditions exists: (i) any registration statement pursuant to which the resale of the Class A Common Stock to be
registered for such Redeeming Member at or immediately following the consummation of the Redemption shall have ceased to be effective pursuant to any action or inaction by the SEC or no such resale registration statement has yet become effective;
(ii) the Corporation shall have failed to cause any related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement necessary to effect such Redemption; (iii) the Corporation shall have exercised its right to defer, delay or
suspend the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement and such deferral, delay or suspension shall affect the ability of such Redeeming Member to have its Class A Common Stock registered at or immediately following the consummation of
the Redemption; (iv) the Corporation shall have disclosed to such Redeeming Member any material non-public information concerning the Corporation, the receipt of which results in such Redeeming Member
being prohibited or restricted from selling Class A Common Stock at or immediately following the Redemption without disclosure of such information (and the Corporation does not permit disclosure); (v) any stop order relating to the registration
statement pursuant to which the Class A Common Stock was to be registered by such Redeeming Member at or immediately following the Redemption shall have been issued by the SEC; (vi) there shall have occurred a material disruption in the
securities markets generally or in the market or markets in which the Class A Common Stock is then traded; (vii) there shall be in effect an injunction, a restraining order or a decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity that
restrains or prohibits the Redemption; (viii) the Corporation shall have failed to comply in all material respects with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, and such failure shall have affected the ability of such Redeeming
Member to consummate the resale of Class A Common Stock to be received upon 

  
 42 

 
such redemption pursuant to an effective registration statement; (ix) the Redemption Date would occur three (3) Business Days or less prior to, or during, a Black-Out Period; provided further, that in no event shall the Redeeming Member seeking to revoke its Redemption Notice or delay the consummation of such Redemption and relying on any of the matters
contemplated in clauses (i) through (ix) above have controlled or intentionally materially influenced any facts, circumstances, or Persons in connection therewith (except in the good faith performance of his or her duties as an officer or
director of the Corporation) in order to provide such Redeeming Member with a basis for such delay or revocation. If a Redeeming Member delays the consummation of a Redemption pursuant to this Section 11.01(c), the
Redemption Date shall occur on the fifth Business Day following the date on which the conditions giving rise to such delay cease to exist (or such earlier day as the Corporation, the Company and such Redeeming Member may agree in writing). 

(d)    The number of shares of Class A Common Stock or the Redeemed Units Equivalent that a Redeeming Member is
entitled to receive under Section 11.01(b) (whether through a Share Settlement or Cash Settlement) shall not be adjusted on account of any Distributions previously made with respect to the Redeemed Units or dividends
previously paid with respect to Class A Common Stock; provided, however, that if a Redeeming Member causes the Company to redeem Redeemed Units and the Redemption Date occurs subsequent to the record date for any Distribution with
respect to the Redeemed Units but prior to payment of such Distribution, the Redeeming Member shall be entitled to receive such Distribution with respect to the Redeemed Units on the date that it is made notwithstanding that the Redeeming Member
transferred and surrendered the Redeemed Units to the Company prior to such date. 
 (e)    In the event of a
reclassification or other similar transaction as a result of which the shares of Class A Common Stock are converted into another security, then in exercising its Redemption Right a Redeeming Member shall be entitled to receive the amount of
such security that the Redeeming Member would have received if such Redemption Right had been exercised and the Redemption Date had occurred immediately prior to the record date of such reclassification or other similar transaction. 

Section 11.02    Election and Contribution of the Corporation. In connection with the
exercise of a Redeeming Member’s Redemption Rights under Section 11.01(a), the Corporation shall contribute to the Company the consideration the Redeeming Member is entitled to receive under
Section 11.01(b). Unless the Redeeming Member has timely delivered a Retraction Notice as provided in Section 11.01(b), or has revoked or delayed a Redemption as provided in
Section 11.01(c), on the Redemption Date (to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date) (i) the Corporation shall make its Capital Contribution to the Company (in the form of the
Share Settlement or the Cash Settlement, as applicable, in accordance with Section 11.01(b)) required under this Section 11.02, and (ii) the Company shall issue to the Corporation a number of
Common Units equal to the number of Redeemed Units surrendered by the Redeeming Member. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Redemption will settle via Cash Settlement, the Corporation shall
only be obligated to contribute to the Company an amount in respect of such Cash Settlement equal to the net proceeds (after deduction of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions and brokers’ fees or commissions) from the sale by the
Corporation of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of Redeemed Units to be redeemed with such Cash 

  
 43 

 
Settlement provided that the Corporation’s Capital Account shall be increased by an amount equal to any Discount relating to such sale of shares of Class A Common Stock in
accordance with Section 6.06. The timely delivery of a Retraction Notice shall terminate all of the Company’s and the Corporation’ rights and obligations under this Section 11.02 arising
from the Redemption Notice. 
 Section 11.03    Exchange Right of the Corporation. 

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XI, the Corporation may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, elect to effect on the Redemption Date the exchange of Redeemed Units for the Share Settlement or Cash Settlement, as determined in accordance with Section 11.01(b), through a direct exchange of such Redeemed
Units and such consideration between the Redeeming Member and the Corporation (a “Direct Exchange”). Upon such Direct Exchange pursuant to this Section 11.03, the Corporation shall acquire the
Redeemed Units and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Units. 
 (b)    The
Corporation may, at any time prior to a Redemption Date, deliver written notice (an “Exchange Election Notice”) to the Company and the Redeeming Member setting forth its election to exercise its right to consummate a Direct
Exchange; provided that such election does not prejudice the ability of the parties to consummate a Redemption or Direct Exchange on the Redemption Date. An Exchange Election Notice may be revoked by the Corporation at any time;
provided that any such revocation does not prejudice the ability of the parties to consummate a Redemption or Direct Exchange on the Redemption Date. The right to consummate a Direct Exchange in all events shall be exercisable for all (and
not less than all) the Redeemed Units that would have otherwise been subject to a Redemption. Except as otherwise provided by this Section 11.03, a Direct Exchange shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in
the same manner as the relevant Redemption would have been consummated if the Corporation had not delivered an Exchange Election Notice. 

Section 11.04    Reservation of Shares of Class A Common Stock; Listing;
Certificate of the Corporation. At all times the Corporation shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon a Redemption or Direct Exchange, such number of
shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be issuable upon any such Redemption or Direct Exchange pursuant to Share Settlements; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its
obligations in respect of any such Redemption or Direct Exchange by delivery of purchased Class A Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of the Corporation) or the delivery of cash pursuant to a Cash Settlement. The
Corporation shall deliver Class A Common Stock that has been registered under the Securities Act with respect to any Redemption or Direct Exchange to the extent a registration statement is effective and available for such shares. The
Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to list the Class A Common Stock required to be delivered upon any such Redemption or Direct Exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange upon which the
outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock are listed at the time of such Redemption or Direct Exchange (it being understood that any such shares may be subject to transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws). The Corporation
covenants that all Class A Common Stock issued upon a Redemption or Direct Exchange will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The provisions of this Article XI shall be
interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with the corresponding provisions of the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation. 

  
 44 

 Section 11.05    Effect of Exercise of
Redemption or Exchange Right. This Agreement shall continue notwithstanding the consummation of a Redemption or Direct Exchange and all governance or other rights set forth herein shall be exercised by the remaining Members and the Redeeming
Member (to the extent of such Redeeming Member’s remaining interest in the Company). No Redemption or Direct Exchange shall relieve such Redeeming Member of any prior breach of this Agreement. 

Section 11.06    Tax Treatment. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the parties
hereto acknowledge and agree a Redemption or a Direct Exchange, as the case may be, shall be treated as a direct exchange between the Corporation and the Redeeming Member for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes. 

ARTICLE XII. 
 ADMISSION OF MEMBERS

 Section 12.01    Substituted Members. Subject to the provisions of Article
X hereof, in connection with the Permitted Transfer of a Company Interest hereunder, the transferee shall become a substituted Member (“Substituted Member”) on the effective date of such Transfer, which effective
date shall not be earlier than the date of compliance with the conditions to such Transfer, and such admission shall be shown on the books and records of the Company. 

Section 12.02    Additional Members. Subject to the provisions of Article X
hereof, any Person that is not an Effective Date Member may be admitted to the Company as an additional Member (any such Person, an “Additional Member”) only upon furnishing to the Manager (a) a duly executed Joinder and
counterparts to any applicable Other Agreements and (b) such other documents or instruments as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as a Member (including entering into such documents as the Manager
may deem appropriate in its reasonable discretion). Such admission shall become effective on the date on which the Manager determines in its reasonable discretion that such conditions have been satisfied and when any such admission is shown on the
books and records of the Company. 
 ARTICLE XIII. 

WITHDRAWAL AND RESIGNATION; TERMINATION OF RIGHTS 

Section 13.01    Withdrawal and Resignation of Members. No Member shall have the power or
right to withdraw or otherwise resign as a Member from the Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company pursuant to Article XIV. Any Member, however, that attempts to withdraw or otherwise resign as a Member from the Company
without the prior written consent of the Manager upon or following the dissolution and winding up of the Company pursuant to Article XIV, but prior to such Member receiving the full amount of Distributions from the Company to which such
Member is entitled pursuant to Article XIV, shall be liable to the Company for all damages (including all lost profits and special, indirect and consequential damages) directly or indirectly caused by the withdrawal or resignation of such
Member. Upon a Transfer of all of a Member’s Units in a Transfer permitted by this Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 10.06, such Member shall cease to be a Member. 

  
 45 

 ARTICLE XIV. 

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION 

Section 14.01    Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of
Additional Members or Substituted Members or the attempted withdrawal or resignation of a Member. The Company shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon: 

(a)    the unanimous decision of the Manager together with the Members that then hold Voting Units to dissolve the
Company; 
 (b)    a dissolution of the Company under Section 18-801(4) of the Delaware Act; or 

(c)    the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Delaware Act. 

Except as otherwise set forth in this Article XIV, the Company is intended to have perpetual existence. An Event of Withdrawal shall
not cause a dissolution of the Company and the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

Section 14.02    Liquidation and Termination. On dissolution of the Company, the Manager
shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Persons as liquidator. The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Delaware Act. The costs of
liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Manager. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as
follows: 
 (a)    as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the liquidators shall
cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is
completed, as applicable; 
 (b)    the liquidators shall cause the notice described in the Delaware Act to be mailed to
each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner described thereunder; 
 (c)    the liquidators
shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds, or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term
as the liquidators may reasonably determine): first, all expenses incurred in liquidation; and second, all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company; and 

(d)    all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with Article IV by the
end of the Taxable Year during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, by ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation). The 

  
 46 

 
distribution of cash and/or property to the Members in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.02 and Section 14.03 below constitutes
a complete return to the Members of their Capital Contributions, a complete distribution to the Members of their interest in the Company and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the
meaning of the Delaware Act. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds. 

Section 14.03    Deferment; Distribution in Kind. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 14.02, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if upon dissolution of the Company the liquidators determine that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company’s assets would be impractical
or would cause undue loss (or would otherwise not be beneficial) to the Members, the liquidators may, in their sole discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy Company liabilities (other
than loans to the Company by Members) and reserves. Subject to the order of priorities set forth in Section 14.02, the liquidators may, in their sole discretion, distribute to the Members, in lieu of cash, either
(a) all or any portion of such remaining Company assets in-kind in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.02(d), (b) as tenants in common and in accordance with the
provisions of Section 14.02(d), undivided interests in all or any portion of such Company assets or (c) a combination of the foregoing. Any such Distributions in kind shall be subject to (y) such conditions
relating to the disposition and management of such assets as the liquidators deem reasonable and equitable and (z) the terms and conditions of any agreements governing such assets (or the operation thereof or the holders thereof) at such time.
Any Company assets distributed in kind will first be written up or down to their Fair Market Value, thus creating Profit or Loss (if any), which shall be allocated in accordance with Article V. The liquidators shall determine the Fair Market
Value of any property distributed in accordance with the valuation procedures set forth in Article XV. 

Section 14.04    Cancellation of Certificate. On completion of the distribution of
Company assets as provided herein, the Company is terminated (and the Company shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the Manager (or such other Person or Persons as the Delaware Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of
cancellation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company. The Company shall be deemed to
continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 14.04. 

Section 14.05    Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for
the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Sections 14.02 and 14.03 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up. 

Section 14.06    Return of Capital. The liquidators shall not be personally liable for
the return of Capital Contributions or any portion thereof to the Members (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Company assets). 

  
 47 

 ARTICLE XV. 

VALUATION 

Section 15.01    Determination. “Fair Market Value” of a specific
Company asset will mean the amount which the Company would receive in an all-cash sale of such asset in an arm’s-length transaction with a willing unaffiliated
third party, with neither party having any compulsion to buy or sell, consummated on the day immediately preceding the date on which the event occurred which necessitated the determination of the Fair Market Value (and after giving effect to any
transfer taxes payable in connection with such sale), as such amount is determined by the Manager (or, if pursuant to Section 14.02, the liquidators) in its good faith judgment using all factors, information and data it
deems to be pertinent. 
 Section 15.02    Dispute Resolution. If any Member or Members
dispute the accuracy of any determination of Fair Market Value in accordance with Section 15.01, and the Manager and such Member(s) are unable to agree on the determination of the Fair Market Value of any asset of the
Company, the Manager and such Member(s) shall each select a nationally recognized investment banking firm experienced in valuing securities of closely-held companies such as the Company in the Company’s industry (the
“Appraisers”), who shall each determine the Fair Market Value of the asset or the Company (as applicable) in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.01. The Appraisers shall be instructed to
give written notice of their determination of the Fair Market Value of the asset or the Company (as applicable) within thirty (30) days of their appointment as Appraisers. If Fair Market Value as determined by an Appraiser is higher than Fair
Market Value as determined by the other Appraiser by 10% or more, and the Manager and such Member(s) do not otherwise agree on a Fair Market Value, the original Appraisers shall designate a third Appraiser meeting the same criteria used to select
the original two. If Fair Market Value as determined by an Appraiser is within 10% of the Fair Market Value as determined by the other Appraiser (but not identical), and the Manager and such Member(s) do not otherwise agree on a Fair Market Value,
the Manager shall select the Fair Market Value of one of the Appraisers. The fees and expenses of the Appraisers shall be borne by the Company. 

ARTICLE XVI. 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 Section 16.01    Representations and Warranties. 

(a)    Each of the Corporation, the Company and the other Members represents and warrants to each other that (i) it is
a corporation or limited liability company duly incorporated or formed, as applicable, and is existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) it has all requisite corporate or limited liability company power, as
applicable, and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (including, in the case of the Corporation, to issue the Class A Common Stock contemplated to be issued pursuant to
Article XI), (iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by it and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, in the case of the Corporation, the issuance of the Class A Common Stock contemplated to
be issued pursuant to Article X) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action on its part, as applicable, and (iv) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of it
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles or by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.

  
 48 

 (b)    Each of the Corporation and the Company represents to each of the
Members that it does not have any contracts, other agreements, duties or obligations that are inconsistent with its duties and obligations (whether or not in its capacity as Manager) under this Agreement and covenants that, except as expressly
permitted by this Agreement, it will not enter into any contracts or other agreements or undertake or acquire any other duties or obligations that are inconsistent with such duties and obligations.

will be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on all the parties hereto. 

Section 16.11    Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other

doubt, the First A&R LLC Agreement is superseded by this Agreement as of the Effective Time and shall be of no further force and effect thereafter.

and all rights and remedies which such Person has been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such Person has under any Law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement or any
other agreements contemplated hereby shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights

and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Reference to any agreement, document or

control but solely to the extent of such conflict.
