RECITALS
WHEREAS, the TRA Party has certain rights under that certain Tax Receivable Agreement (KKR Reorganization), dated as of March 31, 2015, by and between the Company and the TRA Party (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “TRA”); 
WHEREAS, the TRA Party desires to disclaim any rights or interests under the TRA in exchange for a Settlement Payment pursuant to this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Parties propose to terminate the TRA on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the payments and mutual releases contemplated hereby and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement (including the Recitals hereto) shall have the respective meaning assigned to them in the TRA.
2. Settlement Payment. As consideration for the complete and full termination of the TRA and relinquishing all rights thereunder as further provided in this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the TRA Party a cash payment of $24,999,068.00 (the “Settlement Payment”). The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, the Settlement Payment via wire transfer to the account set forth in written wiring instructions provided by the TRA Party no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof. 
3. Full and Complete TRA Termination. The Parties hereby agree as follows: 
(a) Termination of TRA Payment Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained in the TRA to the contrary, effective upon the Parties entering into this Agreement, the Parties hereto agree that the TRA shall be cancelled and terminated in its entirety, shall become null and void and shall be of no further force or effect, provided, however, that Sections 6.2 (Consistency), 6.3 (Cooperation), 7.1 (Notices), 7.4 (Governing Law), 7.8 (Resolution of Disputes) and 7.12 (Confidentiality) of the TRA (collectively, the “Surviving TRA Terms”) shall survive and remain in effect. For purposes of any notices to be provided pursuant to Section 7.1 of the TRA, the addresses of the Parties are revised as provided with each Party’s signature set forth below.
(b) Waiver of Notices; Waiver of Early Termination Payment. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or the TRA to the contrary, the TRA Party, effective upon, and subject to, payment to the TRA Party of the Settlement Payment, waives any past, present or future obligations of the Company to provide notices and any past, present or future rights to receive the Early Termination Payment or any other payments under the TRA. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or the TRA to the contrary, the Parties agree that entering into this Agreement does not constitute an Early Termination Notice.

(c) Tax Matters. The Parties agree to treat the Settlement Payment as a payment made pursuant to the TRA for U.S. federal and other applicable tax purposes. The Parties agree to file all tax returns and take all tax positions consistently with such treatment, except as required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or other corresponding provision of applicable law. The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Company is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by the Company, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable TRA Party.
4. Mutual Release. 
(a) TRA Party Release of Claims. Subject to and effective upon payment to the TRA Party of the Settlement Payment, the TRA Party generally, irrevocably, unconditionally and completely releases and forever discharges the Company and its former, current and future direct or indirect equityholders, and controlling persons, shareholders, members, general or limited partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, managers, trustees, employees, counsel, accountants, agents, financial advisers, consultants, insurers, heirs, administrators and executors of any of the foregoing, and its and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, “Company Released Parties”), from any and all disputes, claims, charges, losses, amounts owed, assessed interest, penalties, damages, taxes, costs, expenses, controversies, demands, rights, liabilities, suits, proceedings, actions or causes of action of every kind and nature (collectively, “Claims”) that the TRA Party has had in the past, now has or might have, whether known or unknown, arising out of or relating to the TRA. The TRA Party hereby agrees that the TRA Party shall not and shall cause any controlled affiliates not to initiate or file any lawsuit of any kind whatsoever or any complaint or charge against the Company or any of the other Company Released Parties with respect to the matters released and discharged hereby. 
(b) Company Release of Claims. Subject to and effective upon payment to the TRA Party of the Settlement Payment, the Company generally, irrevocably, unconditionally and completely releases and forever discharges the TRA Party and its former, current and future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling persons, shareholders, members, general or limited partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, managers, trustees, employees, counsel, accountants, agents, financial advisers, consultants, insurers, heirs, administrators and executors of any of the foregoing, and its and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, “TRA Released Parties”), from any and all Claims that Company has had in the past, now has or might have, whether known or unknown, arising out of or relating to the TRA. The Company hereby agrees that the Company shall not and shall cause any controlled affiliates not to initiate or file any lawsuit of any kind whatsoever or any complaint or charge against the TRA Party or any of the other TRA Released Parties with respect to the matters released and discharged hereby.
(c) Release of Unknown Claims. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH LEGAL COUNSEL AND IS FAMILIAR WITH THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, A STATUTE THAT OTHERWISE PROHIBITS THE RELEASE OF UNKNOWN CLAIMS, WHICH PROVIDES AS FOLLOWS:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.  
BEING AWARE OF SAID CODE SECTION, EACH PARTY AGREES TO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE THEREUNDER, AS WELL AS UNDER ANY STATUTE OR COMMON LAW PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT ONLY WITH RESPECT TO THE RELEASED MATTERS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.
THE INVALIDITY OR UNENFORCEABILITY OF ANY PART OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE REMAINDER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT.
