___________________________________
Pursuant to Section 151 of the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
___________________________________
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “General Corporation Law”), the undersigned duly authorized officer of The Fortegra Group, Inc.  (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law, certifies that pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), which authorizes the issuance, by the Corporation, of up to 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), the Board on [•], 2022 adopted the following resolutions:
RESOLVED, that pursuant to Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board hereby creates and provides for the issuance of a series of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, and through this certificate of designation (the “Certificate of Designation”), hereby fixes the number, powers, designations, preferences, rights, restrictions and limitations of such series of Preferred Stock as follows:
1.Designation and amount.  5,333,333 shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation are hereby constituted as a series of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, designated as “Series A Preferred Stock”.
2.Ranking.  The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank (a) senior as to dividends over (i) the Corporation’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) any other series or class of the Corporation’s capital stock created after the date hereof that does not by its terms rank senior as to dividends to the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued, (b) senior as to distributions of assets upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, over (i) the Common Stock and (ii) any other series or class of the Corporation’s capital stock issued after the date hereof 

that does not by its terms rank senior as to liquidation, dissolution and winding up to the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued (any such capital stock contemplated by clauses (a) or (b), “Junior Stock”), and (c) subordinate to any outstanding indebtedness of the Corporation, including any senior secured, unsecured, mezzanine, subordinated or convertible indebtedness.
3.Dividends.
3.1.From and after the date of the issuance of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, dividends at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Dividend Rate (as defined below) on the Liquidation Preference (as defined below, but disregarding for purposes of this Section 3.1 clause (y) of the definition thereof) per share of Series A Preferred Stock shall accrue on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock) (the “Accruing Dividends”).  Accruing Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, shall be compounded on a quarterly basis (on each of January 15th, April 15th, July 15th and October 15th of each year (each, a “Payment Date” and the period of time from one Payment Date (or, in the case of the first period, from the date of issuance) to the next Payment Date, a “Quarterly Period”)), and shall be cumulative; provided, however, that except as set forth in the following sentence of this Section 3.1 or in Section 4, such Accruing Dividends shall be payable only when, as, and if declared by the Board and the Corporation shall be under no obligation to pay such Accruing Dividends. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall have the option to satisfy its obligations, in whole or in part, with respect to the Accruing Dividends that accrued during any Quarterly Period by making cash payments in an amount equal to the Accruing Dividends that accrued during such Quarterly Period, in which case such dividends (or portion thereof) actually paid in cash will cease to accrue as of the date payment is actually made (but any portion not paid in cash will continue to accrue). As a condition to the payment of cash in lieu of accruing the Accruing Dividends in respect of any particular Quarterly Period, the Corporation shall deliver written notice of its intention to pay a cash dividend to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock at least ten (10) business days prior to the Payment Date in respect of such Quarterly Period and payment of such cash dividend will be made no later than the Payment Date.  For clarity, in no event shall the Corporation have the right to pay any Accruing Dividends that accrued in prior Quarterly Periods, which Accruing Dividends shall continue to accrue in accordance with the terms hereof.
3.2.Each dividend declared by the Board in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be payable to the holders of record thereof as they appear on the stock records of the Corporation at the close of business on such record dates as may be established by the Board, which shall be not more than 30 days nor less than 10 days preceding the applicable dividend payment date.

4.Liquidation Rights.
4.1.In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, and in the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below), the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the consideration payable to stockholders in such Deemed Liquidation Event or out of the Available Proceeds (as defined below), as applicable, before any payment shall be made to or set aside for the holders of Junior Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to the greater of (x) the Original Issue Price, plus any Accruing Dividends accrued but unpaid thereon, whether or not declared, together with any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon and (y) the payment such holders would have received had such holders, immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, converted such shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock at the applicable Series A Conversion Price set forth in Section 5 hereof (the greater of (x) and (y), the “Liquidation Preference”).  Unless expressly waived in writing (with specific reference to this provision) by the Requisite Holders, the Liquidation Preference shall be paid in cash (whether in connection with a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, in connection with a Deemed Liquidation Event or otherwise).
4.2.If upon any such liquidation, bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or Deemed Liquidation Event, the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled under Section 4.1, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.  
4.3.The “Original Issue Price” shall be $15.00, which amount shall be adjusted in the event of any share dividend, share split, share combination or other similar recapitalization of the Series A Preferred Stock, Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalent.
4.4.Deemed Liquidation Events.
4.4.1.Definition: Each of the following events shall be considered a “Deemed Liquidation Event” unless the holders of at least 50% of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Requisite Holders”) elect otherwise by written notice sent to the Corporation at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of any such event:

4.5.Effecting a Deemed Liquidation Event.
4.5.1.1.The Corporation shall notify the holders of Series A Preferred Stock at least ten (10) business days prior to consummating a Deemed Liquidation Event of which it is aware.
4.5.1.2.Unless expressly waived in writing (with specific reference to this provision) by the Requisite Holders, the Corporation shall not have the power (and shall cause its subsidiaries not) to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event or enter into any agreement or arrangement to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event unless the agreement or plan of merger or consolidation or purchase agreement, as applicable, for such transaction (the “Merger Agreement”) provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation in such Deemed Liquidation Event shall be allocated to the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Section 4.1.
4.5.1.3.In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in Section 4.4.1.2, if the Corporation does not effect a dissolution of the Corporation under the General Corporation Law within thirty (30) days after such Deemed Liquidation Event, then (i) the Corporation shall send a written notice to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock no later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the Deemed Liquidation Event advising such holders of their right (and the requirements to be met to secure such right, and whether the Corporation has sufficient Available Proceeds to fully redeem the Series A Preferred Stock) pursuant to the terms of the following clause (ii) to require the redemption of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and (ii) if the Requisite Holders so request in a written instrument delivered to the Corporation not later than the one hundred and twentieth (120th) days after Deemed Liquidation Event, the Corporation shall use the consideration received by the Corporation from such Deemed Liquidation Event (net of any retained liabilities associated with the assets sold or technology licensed, as determined in good faith by the Board), together with any other assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, (the “Available Proceeds”), on or prior to the one hundred and fiftieth 
-5-

(150th) day after the Deemed Liquidation Event, to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to the applicable Liquidation Preference.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a redemption pursuant to the preceding sentence, if the Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall redeem a pro rata portion of each holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such Available Proceeds, based on the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares to be redeemed if the Available Proceeds were sufficient to redeem all such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders. Prior to the distribution or redemption provided for in this Section 4.3.1.2, the Corporation shall not expend or dissipate the consideration received for such Deemed Liquidation Event, except to discharge expenses incurred in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event.
5.Conversion.
5.1.Optional Conversion: Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof by delivering written notice thereof to the Corporation (a “Conversion Notice”), at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Series A Original Issue Price, plus any Accruing Dividends, by the Series A Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect at the time of conversion.  The “Series A Conversion Price” of any share of Series A Preferred Stock shall initially be $15.00.  Such initial Series A Conversion Price shall be reduced (but not below $0.01) by the aggregate value of all cash dividends or distributions in respect of a share of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents from and after the Series A Original Issue Date (other than, after an Initial Public Offering, ordinary course dividends on the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents not exceeding the Allowed Dividend per share per annum, which amount shall be adjusted in the event of any share dividend, share split, share combination or other similar recapitalization of the Series A Preferred Stock, Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalent) and shall further be subject to adjustment as provided below.  A Conversion Notice may provide that a conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be contingent upon the occurrence of an event, fact or circumstance, which contingent exercise may further require that such event, fact or circumstance occur prior to a certain date, including the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Corporation or an Initial Public Offering, in which case, unless the Conversion Notice expressly specifies otherwise, the conversion shall be deemed to occur immediately prior to the 
-6-

occurrence of such event, fact or circumstance.  Upon the request of the Requisite Holders, the Corporation will provide notice of the then-current Series A Conversion Price. 
5.2.Mandatory Conversion.  Immediately prior to the closing of a Qualified Public Offering, each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into (a) such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing (i) the Original Issue Price, plus any Accruing Dividends by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect at such time and (b) the right to concurrently with such conversion receive the Make Whole Amount either (i) in cash or (ii) in additional shares of Common Stock in an amount as is determined by dividing the Make Whole Amount by the Conversion Price in effect at such time, which determination between (i) and (ii) the Board shall make at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the closing of the Qualified Public Offering and provide prompt notice thereof to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (it being agreed that in the absence of such determination and notice, the Make Whole Amount shall be received pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii)).  Following the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5.2, the Corporation may not reissue such Series A Preferred Stock or issue additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
5.3.Adjustments to the Series A Conversion Price.
5.3.1.Special Definitions.  For purposes of this Section 5, the following definitions shall apply:

In addition, the amount of the Allowed Dividend will be calculated in an equitable manner in connection with an Initial Public Offering not involving an underwritten offering.
5.3.1.2.“Make Whole Amount” means, with respect to any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the net present value (using a discount rate of eight percent (8%) per annum) of the amount of Accruing Dividends that would have accrued on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (disregarding the conversion thereof pursuant to Section 5.2 or otherwise) from and after the closing of the Qualified Public Offering through the date that is five (5) years following the date such share was issued (the “Accrued Amount”).
-7-

5.3.1.3.“Qualified Public Offering” shall mean an Initial Public Offering resulting in at least $150,000,000 of gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering to the Corporation and/or the stockholders of the Corporation that includes a per share Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents offered to the public in the Initial Public Offering of at least $15.00 (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents).
5.3.1.4.“Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities issued to employees or directors of, or consultants or advisors to, the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to any Approved Plan (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement).

5.3.1.9.Adjustment of Series A Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.  
(a)In the event the Corporation or its subsidiaries shall at any time after the Series A Original Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock, without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Series A Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, then the Series A Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issuance, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
CP2 = ((CP1* A) + B) ÷ (A + C).
(i)“CP2” shall mean the Series A Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;
(ii)“CP1” shall mean the Series A Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

-10-

connection with such issuance, and (iii) without duplication and subject to clauses (i) and (ii), all other shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or that would be outstanding upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities outstanding immediately prior to such issuance);
(iv)“B” shall mean the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Corporation or its subsidiaries in respect of such issuance; and
(v)“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.
(b)In the event that at any time in any manner Convertible Securities are granted or issued and the price per share for which the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents is issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation or its subsidiaries as consideration for the granting or issuing of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Corporation or its subsidiaries upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities which are exercisable, convertible or exchangeable into other Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue or sale of such other Convertible Securities and upon the conversion, exchange or exercise thereof, by (y) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, then the total maximum amount of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall (as of the date of issuance of such Convertible Security) be deemed to have been issued for such price per share.  No adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, except as otherwise provided in the paragraph immediately below.  
-11-

(c)If the purchase price provided for in any Convertible Securities, or the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents shall change at any time (including by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution of the type set forth in this Section 5.3.1.9), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall forthwith be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold.  
(d)On the expiration or redemption of, or the termination of any right to convert, exchange or exercise, any Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be increased to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at the time of such expiration or termination had such Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such expiration or termination, never been issued.
(e)In the event any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be issued or deemed issued for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received shall be the fair market value of such consideration as mutually agreed by the Requisite Holders and the Corporation; provided, that if the Requisite Holders and the Corporation do not so mutually agree within fifteen (15) Business Days, then fair market value shall be determined by the Independent Arbitrator in accordance with the Independent Arbitration Rules, mutatis mutandis.
5.3.1.10.Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or declare a dividend on, or a distribution in respect of, Common Stock, which dividend or distribution is payable in additional shares of Common Stock (or a distribution in respect of, Common Stock Equivalents, which dividend or distribution is payable in additional Common Stock Equivalents of the same class and 
-12-

series and from the same issuer), then the Series A Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision, dividend or distribution shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents outstanding.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, then the Series A Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents outstanding.  Any adjustment under this subsection shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
5.3.1.11.Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions.  In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents that is payable in (a) securities of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries (which is not subject to Section 5.3.1.10) or (b) other securities, property or assets (other than cash), which dividend or distribution is actually made (a “Dividend Event”), then and in each such event each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, upon conversion at any time after such dividend or distribution (or the record date thereof), shall receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the securities or such other properties or assets that would have been payable to such holder if such holder had completed such conversion immediately prior to the record date of such dividend or distribution. For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under, or the exercise price of, the Warrants or the Additional Warrants (each, as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) shall result in an adjustment under Section 5.3.1.10 or this Section 5.3.1.11.
5.3.1.12.Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc.  Subject to, and without limiting, the provisions of Section 4 including Section 4.2, if (a) there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization or 
-13-

reclassification of the Corporation or any of its securities, (b) there shall occur a consolidation or merger involving the Corporation in which the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property or (c) a subsidiary of the Corporation that owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and is not a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation takes any of the actions contemplated by clause (a) or (b), mutatis mutandis (a “Reorganization Event”), then, and in each such case, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event (but without limiting the right to receive any securities or property owed as a result of Section 5.3.1.8) into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issuable upon conversion of one share of Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 5 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Series A Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.
5.3.2.Notice of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Series A Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 5.3, the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and shall promptly give written notice to the holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock adjustment or readjustment under this Section 5.3 of the Series A Conversion Price .  The notice shall describe the adjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which the adjustment or readjustment is based.
5.4.Issuance of Stock.  Except as set forth in the Conversion Notice (provided, that the Conversion Notice may not specify a date or time prior to the delivery of the Conversion Notice), a share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have 
-14-

been converted as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of delivery of a Conversion Notice with respect to such share of Series A Preferred Stock, and the holder thereof shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of the applicable shares of Common Stock (and, to the extent applicable, any cash, securities or other property issuable thereon) as of 11:59 p.m. on the date of delivery of the Conversion Notice (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter).  As soon as practicable on or after such date (and, in any event, no later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter), the Corporation shall issue and deliver to the holder evidence of issuance in book-entry form of the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion (and, to the extent applicable and practicable, evidence of issuance or delivery of any other securities or other property issuable thereon).
5.5.Reservation of Shares.  The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for issuance upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. Any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock (i) shall be duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) shall rank pari passu with the other shares of Common Stock outstanding from time to time and (iii) from and after such time as the Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange, shall be approved for listing on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.
5.6.Notices.  If the Corporation proposes at any time to effect a Change of Control, an Initial Public Offering, a Reorganization Event or a Dividend Event, the Corporation shall give the holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) Business Days advance written notice (each, a “Transaction Notice”) of the anticipated closing date for such transaction or event.
6.Voting Rights.  On any matter presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), each holder of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter.  Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of this Certificate of Designation, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class and on an as-converted to Common Stock basis.  In connection with an Initial Public Offering and, in any event, at all times when the Common Stock is listed on a securities exchange, the Corporation shall take all actions within its control to ensure that any stockholder or other approval or action necessary for the Series A Preferred Stock to have the voting rights 
-15-

R E C I T A L S
WHEREAS, prior to Closing, Tiptree owned 100% of the issued capital in the Company;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2021, by and among Tiptree, the Warburg Investors and the Company (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), the Warburg Investors have agreed to purchase (i) shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share and (ii) shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share and (iii) warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, in each case, for cash; 
WHEREAS, the parties believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the Investors to enter into this Agreement for the purposes, among others, of (i) establishing the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), (ii) assuring continuity in the management and ownership of the Company and (iii) limiting the manner and terms by which the Shares (as defined below) may be transferred;
WHEREAS, the parties intend to treat the purchase of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, the shares of Common Stock of the Company and the warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company as part of a transaction integrated with the Conversion for purposes of section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and

1

1.BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
(a)Election of Directors.
(i)From and after the date hereof, the Investors and the Company shall take all reasonable action within their respective power, including convening and attending one or more regular or special meetings and the voting of (or acting by written consent with respect to) all shares of capital stock of the Company Owned by them (including the Shares), required to cause the Board to consist of six (6) members, which shall include: 
(A)three (3) representatives designated by the Tiptree Investors (the “Tiptree Directors”), each of whom shall have, pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, two (2) votes;
(B)two (2) representatives designated by the Warburg Investors (the “Warburg Directors”), each of which shall have one (1) vote; 
(C)subject to Section 1(c), one (1) representative designated by mutual agreement between the Tiptree Investors and Warburg Investors, with each party acting in good faith (the “Independent Director”), who shall have one (1) vote; and
(D)the then-current Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO Director”), who shall have one (1) vote.
The parties hereto acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, the Board will consist of Randy Maultsby, Michael Barnes and Jonathan Ilany, each of whom will have two (2) votes (as the Tiptree Directors), Jeff Stein and Jose Arredondo, who will each have one (1) vote (as the Warburg Directors), [__] as the Independent Director, who will have one (1) vote, and Rick Kahlbaugh (as the CEO Director), who will have one (1) vote.
(ii)Neither any Investor, nor any officer, director, stockholder, partner, employee or agent of any such Investor makes any representation or warranty as to the fitness or competence of the nominee of such Investor hereunder to serve on the Board by virtue of such Investor’s execution of this Agreement or by the act of such Investor in voting for such nominee pursuant to this Agreement. 
(iii)Each Investor shall, at any time it is then entitled to vote for the election of directors to the Board, vote all of its Shares of the Company that are entitled to vote or execute proxies or written consents, as the case may be, and take all other necessary action (including causing the Company to call a special meeting of Investors) in order to ensure that the composition of the Board is as set forth in Section 1(a) and Section 1(b).  Each Other Investor hereby grants to Tiptree or a Person designated by Tiptree, solely for purposes of this Section 1(a) and Section 1(b), an irrevocable proxy coupled with an interest to cause any and all Shares held by such Investor to be present for purposes of determining a quorum at any meeting and to vote, or to take any action by written consent such Other Investor’s Shares in accordance with such Other Investor’s agreements contained in Section 1(a).  Each of the Tiptree Investors 
2

and the Warburg Investors hereby grant to one another an irrevocable proxy to take any action to give effect to the Director designation rights specified under Section 1(a).  Each Other Investor hereby revokes any and all previous proxies or powers of attorney with respect to such Other Investor’s Shares and shall not hereafter, until this Agreement terminates pursuant to its terms, grant, or purport to grant, to any Person (other than Tiptree, Warburg Investor, the Company or a designee of Tiptree or the Company) any other proxy or power of attorney with respect to such Shares, deposit any of such Shares into a voting trust or enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement or any amendment hereof), arrangement or understanding with any person, directly or indirectly, to vote, grant any proxy or power of attorney or give instructions with respect to the voting of any of such Shares, in each case, with respect to any of the matters set forth in this Agreement. 
(iv)From the date on which the Company or its successor completes an initial registered offering of Common Stock of the Company or its successor to the public or otherwise has a class of equity securities trading on a national securities exchange or registered with the SEC (including as a result of a transaction with a “special purpose acquisition company”) (the “Initial Public Offering”), and for as long as the Tiptree Investors or Warburg Investors, as applicable Owns at least five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock (on an As Converted Basis), the Company will nominate and use its reasonable best efforts (including soliciting proxies for the Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor designees, as applicable, to the same extent as it does for any of its other nominees to the Board) to have such number of individuals designated by the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors, as applicable, elected to the Board so that the number of individuals designated by each such Investor for election to the Board as compared to the size of the Board is proportionate to the number of Shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock (on an As Converted Basis) then Owned by such Investors and their respective Affiliates as compared to the number of Shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock (on an As Converted Basis) at such time; provided, however, that as long as the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors, as applicable, Own at least five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock (on an As Converted Basis), Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors, as applicable shall have the right to designate at least one (1) individual for election to the Board.  Following the Initial Public Offering, for as long as the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors, as applicable, are entitled to appoint one or more persons to the Board, the Board, or a committee thereof consisting of non-employee directors (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act), shall, if requested by the Tiptree Investors or Warburg Investors, as applicable, and to the extent then permitted under applicable law, adopt resolutions and otherwise use reasonable efforts to cause any acquisition from the Company of securities or disposition of securities to the Company (including in connection with any exercise of warrants or other derivative securities held by the Tiptree Investors, the Warburg Investors or their respective Affiliates) to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.
(v)For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that the Investor(s) of the Company entitled to designate a representative of the Board pursuant to Section 1(a) fails to do so shall not in any way permit any Person other than such Investor(s) to fill such vacancy.
3

(b)Replacement Directors; Vacancies; Removal of Directors.  In the event that any Tiptree Director, Warburg Director or other Director designated in the manner set forth in Section 1(a) hereof is unable to serve, or once having commenced to serve, is removed (in accordance with the terms hereof) or withdraws from the Board (a “Withdrawing Director”), such Withdrawing Director’s replacement (the “Substitute Director”) will be designated exclusively by the Person(s) whose previously designated representative vacated the Board in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation and this Agreement.

4

(v)For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 1(e) do not supersede or otherwise limit (and shall be in addition to) any of the provisions set forth in the organizational or constitutive documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the subject matter hereof.

(i)In addition to any other indemnification rights the Tiptree Directors, the Warburg Directors, the Independent Director or the CEO Director, if any (the “Directors” and each, a “Director”), have pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Company and any agreement with the Company, each Director shall have the right to enter into, and the Company agrees to enter into, an indemnification agreement with each such Director, which indemnification agreement shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and consistent with indemnification agreements customarily entered into between companies and their independent board members.  The Company shall reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by the Directors in connection with attending (whether in person or telephonically) all meetings of the Board, the board of directors or managers of the Company’s director or indirect Subsidiaries or committees thereof or other Company related meetings to the same extent as all other members of the Board are reimbursed for such expenses (or, in case any such expense reimbursement policy shall apply only to non-employee directors, to the same extent as all other non-employee directors).  The Company shall maintain director and officer insurance covering the Directors on the same terms and with the same amount of coverage as is provided to other 
6

members of the Board.  Following the Initial Public Offering, each Tiptree Director and Warburg Director shall be entitled to the same equity grants and other stock incentives and the same Board and committee fees, in each case, if any.

(g)Certain Protective Covenants.  For so long as the Warburg Investors or the Tiptree Investors, as applicable, collectively Own at least five percent (5%) of total Shares outstanding (on an As Converted Basis), the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, either directly or indirectly, by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, take any of the actions set forth on Schedule II, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding to effect any such actions, without the written consent or affirmative vote of each of the Majority Warburg Investors and the Majority Tiptree Investors (as applicable), given in writing or by vote at a meeting (in addition to any other vote required by law, the organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary or this Agreement), and any such act or transaction entered into without such consent shall be null and void ab initio, and of no force and effect; provided, that the consent of the Majority Tiptree Investors shall not be required with respect to any transaction involving Tiptree or its Affiliates set forth in clause 7 of Schedule II.

The parties hereto will establish the cost allocation methods and procedures for the allocation of the fees, costs and expenses of the General Services consistent with past practices (provided, that in no event shall such methods result in an 
7

allocation that is worse to any party than those obtainable on arm’s-length terms) related to such personnel, services, office space, software, services of third parties, facilities, and/or supplies.

Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to any Other Investor holding Granted Equity Shares, such holder shall also be subject to the transfer and other restrictions applicable to such Granted Equity Shares, including with respect to transfer restrictions following the Initial Public Offering.  
(iv)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Transfer or attempt to Transfer any Shares not in compliance with this Agreement shall be null and void and have no force or effect, and the Company shall not, and shall cause any transfer agent not to, give any effect in the Company’s stock records to such Transfer or attempted Transfer.  The parties hereto acknowledge that the transfer restrictions contained herein are reasonable and in the best interests of the Company.

(vi)Transfers by Permitted Transferees.  A Permitted Transferee of Shares of an Investor pursuant to this Agreement may subsequently Transfer his, her or its Shares only to the Investor who Transferred such Shares to the Permitted Transferee or to a Person that is a Permitted Transferee of such Investor that originally transferred such shares to the Permitted Transferee.  Each Permitted Transferee of any Investor to which Shares are Transferred shall, and such Investor shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Permitted Transferee to, promptly Transfer back to such Investor (or to another Permitted Transferee of such Investor) the Shares it acquired from such Investor if such Person who was a Permitted Transferee ceases to be a Permitted Transferee of such Investor.
(vii)Transfers - Generally.

(b)Tag-Along Rights.
(i)Until the time of a Qualified Public Offering and subject to (and, as applicable, following compliance with) Sections 2(a), 2(c) and 2(d), in the event that the Tiptree Investors and their Affiliates (the “Selling Investor”) intend to Transfer any Shares Owned by such Investor (other than Transfers to any Permitted Transferee or to the Company) in a Transfer that is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Tag-Along Stock”), such Selling Investor shall notify each other Investor (collectively, the “Tag-Along Investors”), in writing, of such proposed Transfer and its terms and conditions.  Within twenty (20) Business Days of the date of such notice, each Tag-Along Investor shall have the right to notify the Selling Investor if he, she or it elects to participate in such Transfer.  Any Tag-Along Investor that fails to notify the Selling Investor within such twenty (20) Business Day period shall be deemed to have waived his, her or its rights hereunder with respect to such transfer (but not subsequent transfers).  Each Tag-Along Investor that so notifies the Selling Investor shall have the right to sell, at the same price (subject to the provisions below), an amount of Shares (which, for clarity, may include Preferred Stock or Share Equivalents to the extent converted or exercised upon consummation of such sale) (excluding for purposes of this Section 2(b) any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) equal to the Shares the third party actually proposes to purchase multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares Owned (excluding any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) by such Tag-Along Investor (calculated on an As Converted Basis) and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Shares Owned (excluding any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) by the Selling Investor and each Tag-Along Investor exercising his, her or its rights under this Section 2(b) (calculated on As Converted Basis); provided that, in the event that the Transfer of Shares proposed by the Selling Investor would result in a Change of Control of the Company, the Warburg Investors shall have the right (but not the obligation) to sell all of Shares then-Owned by the Warburg Investors.  
(ii)The provisions of this Section 2(b) shall not apply to a sale or other Transfer pursuant to which the Triggering Stockholders (as defined below) have exercised their Drag-Along Rights set forth herein or sale or other Transfer pursuant to an Initial Public Offering.
(iii)Conditions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Transfer in respect of which a Tag-Along Investor exercises its rights under this Section 2(b) must provide that:  
(A)any representations and warranties to be made by such Investor in connection with such Transfer are limited to representations and warranties related to organization, authority, ownership and the ability to convey title to such Shares (including any Share Equivalents), due execution and enforceability of transaction documents, non contravention and no conflicts, governmental approvals, no brokers and no litigation relating to the transaction;
(B)the Investor shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other Person in connection with such Transfer, other 
10

than the Company (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders) except that the liability for claims related to breaches of such Investor’s representations, warranties and covenants or fraud by such Investor shall only be borne by such Investor (except to the extent of any such escrow);
(C)the liability for indemnification, damages or other remedies, if any, of such Investor in any such transaction and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Company or its stockholders in connection with such transaction, is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders), and is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Investor in connection with such transaction (subject to and taking into account any liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation), except that the liability for claims related to breaches of such Investor’s representations, warranties and covenants or fraud by such Investor shall only be borne by such Investor (except to the extent of any such escrow);
(D)subject to Section 2(b)(ii), the Investors will receive the same form of consideration in such Transfer and if any holders of any capital stock of the Company are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a result of such Transfer, all holders of the same class or series of capital stock will be given the same option; provided, however that nothing in this Section 2(b)(iii)(D) shall entitle any holder to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is generally applicable to the Company’s stockholders; provided, further that an Investor that is an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries may be given an option to receive securities in lieu of cash consideration in a “rollover transaction” without offering the same to other Investors as long as such securities are of an equivalent value at the closing of such Transfer as the consideration paid to the other Investors; and
(E)notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, no Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, shall be required to make any non-compete with respect to such Transfer.
(c)Drag Along Rights.  
(i)Subject to Section 2(d), if at any time and from time to time after the [●], 2028 and prior to a Qualified Public Offering, the Tiptree Investors and their Affiliates or the Warburg Investors and their Affiliates (in each case, the “Triggering Stockholders”), desire to (A) Transfer in a bona fide arms’ length sale all of their Shares to any Person or Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company or the Triggering Stockholders, (B) approve any merger of the Company with or into any other Person who is not an Affiliate of the Company or the Triggering Stockholders that would constitute a Deemed Liquidation Event, or (C) approve any 
11

sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to any Person or Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company or the Triggering Stockholders (for purposes of this Section 2(c), such Person or Persons are referred to as the “Proposed Transferee” and any such transaction, a “Drag-Along Sale”)), the Triggering Stockholders shall have the right (for purposes of this Section 2(c), the “Drag-Along Right”), but not the obligation (I) in the case of a Transfer of the type referred to in clause (A) above, to require each other Investor to sell to the Proposed Transferee all of such Investor’s Shares (for clarity, excluding the Warrants) for the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price (as defined below), or (II) in the case of a merger or sale of assets or other Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in clauses (B) or (C) above, to require each other Investor to vote (or act by written consent with respect to) all Shares then Owned by such other Investor in favor of such Drag-Along Sale and to waive any dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights such Investor may have under applicable law.  Each Investor agrees to take all steps reasonably necessary to enable such Investor to comply with the provisions of this Section 2(c) to facilitate the Triggering Stockholders’ exercise of a Drag-Along Right and to reasonably cooperate with the Triggering Stockholder in connection therewith.  As used herein, “Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price” means: (x) to the extent that an Investor subject to the Drag-Along Right is selling the same security being sold by the Triggering Stockholders, the same consideration per share for such security as is proposed to be received by the Triggering Stockholders (less, in the case of Share Equivalents, the exercise price for such Share Equivalents), including equivalent rights to receive (when and if paid) a proportionate share of any deferred consideration, earn-out or escrow funds that may become available to the Triggering Stockholders in connection with the proposed transaction; and (y) to the extent that an Investor subject to the Drag-Along Right is selling Shares or Share Equivalents other than the securities being sold by the Triggering Stockholders, the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price for each such different Share or Share Equivalent, shall be equal to the implied value of such different Share or Share Equivalent (less, in the case of Share Equivalents, the exercise price for such Share Equivalents) determined by reference to the per share price being paid for the Shares being sold by the Triggering Stockholders and after giving effect to all amounts payable to the holders of Preferred Stock prior and in preference to the Common Stock pursuant to the liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (for clarity, the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive at least their liquidation preference pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation in priority to any amounts to be received by any other holders of Shares); provided, however that if the per share price being paid for the Shares includes any rights to receive a proportionate share of any deferred consideration, earn-out or escrow funds that may become available to the Triggering Stockholders in connection with the Drag-Along Sale, such amounts shall be considered when determining the implied equity price of each Share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, but any portion of such amount included in the implied equity price of each Share of Common Stock shall not be paid to the Investors selling Common Stock unless and until the portions of such amount included in the price per share being paid for the Preferred Stock are paid to the holders of the Preferred Stock and only to the extent that the holders of the Preferred Stock have received all amounts payable to the holders of Preferred Stock prior and in preference to the Common Stock pursuant to the liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Warburg Investors sell their Shares pursuant to a Drag-Along Right by another party if the form of consideration payable in connection with such Company Sale consists of 
12

anything other than cash or New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market listed publicly-traded shares of common stock.
(ii)To exercise a Drag-Along Right, the Triggering Stockholders shall give each Investor a written notice (for purposes of this Section 2(c), a “Drag-Along Notice”) containing the proposed Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price for each security proposed to be sold, terms of payment and other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee’s offer at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the consummation of such transaction.  Each Investor shall thereafter be obligated to sell or vote (or act by written consent with respect to) all Shares (including any Share Equivalents) Owned by such Investor, provided that if the sale to the Proposed Transferee is consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days of delivery of the Drag-Along Notice, subject to reasonable extensions of time for up to an additional 120-day period as necessary to obtain any approvals or authorizations that are required under applicable laws, then each Investor shall no longer be obligated to sell such Shares Owned by such Investor pursuant to that specific Drag-Along Right unless a new Drag-Along Notice is delivered and in any event shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 2(c).  
(iii)Each Investor shall execute and deliver such instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such other action, including executing any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement or related documents, as may be reasonably required by the Triggering Stockholders or the Company in order to carry out the terms and provisions of this Section 2(c).  At the closing of the proposed transaction, each Investor shall deliver, against receipt of the consideration payable in such transaction, certificates representing the Shares which the Investor Owns and is Transferring pursuant to such transaction (or affidavit of loss, if applicable, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Board), together with executed stock powers or other instruments of transfer acceptable to the Triggering Stockholders.
(iv)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2(c), in the event that all or a portion of the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price consists of securities and the sale of such securities to the Investors would require (A) either a registration under the Securities Act which has not already been made or will not be made in connection with the transaction, or (B) the preparation of a disclosure document pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any successor regulation) or a similar provision of any state securities law, then, at the option of the Triggering Stockholders, any one or more of the Investors may receive, in lieu of such securities, the Fair Market Value of some or all of such securities in cash, as determined in good faith by the Board.  
(v)The Company agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Triggering Stockholders and any proposed transferee, and their respective advisors, to facilitate and effect any Drag-Along Sale and, upon the request of any Triggering Stockholder, subject to any proposed transferee executing a reasonably satisfactory confidentiality agreement with the Company, the Company will, and will cause its and its Subsidiaries’ employees and personnel to, use its and their reasonable best efforts to facilitate and support any due diligence process being undertaken in connection with such proposed Drag-Along Sale.  In furtherance and not limitation 
13

thereof, if requested by the Triggering Stockholder: (i) the Company will promptly engage, on customary terms (including customary indemnification from the Company), a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Triggering Stockholder to provide financial advisory services to the Company and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such investment banking firm and (ii) the Company will enter into a definitive agreement with the proposed transferee(s) providing for such Drag-Along Sale and make and agree to representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities and other similar agreements that are reasonable and customary for negotiated transactions of the type contemplated by such Transfer.  
(vi)All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Triggering Stockholder in connection with any proposed Drag-Along Sale (whether or not consummated), shall be borne by the Company.
(vii)Exceptions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Investor will not be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 2(c) unless:  
(A)any representations and warranties to be made by such Investor in connection with any transaction proposed to be subject to the Drag-Along Right are limited to representations and warranties related to organization, authority, ownership and the ability to convey title to such Shares (including any Share Equivalents), due execution and enforceability of transaction documents, non contravention and no conflicts, governmental approvals, no brokers and no litigation relating to the transaction;
(B)the Investor shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other Person in connection with any transaction proposed to be subject to the Drag-Along Right, other than the Company (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders);
(C)the liability for indemnification, damages or other remedies if any, of such Investor in any such transaction and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Company or its stockholders in connection with such transaction, is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders), and is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Investor in connection with such transaction (subject to and taking into account any liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation), except that the liability for claims related to breaches of such Investor’s representations, warranties and covenants or fraud by such Investor shall only be borne by such Investor (except to the extent of any such escrow);
(D)subject to Section 2(c)(iv), the Investors will receive the same form of consideration in such Transfer and if any holders of any capital stock of the Company are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a 
14

result of any transaction proposed to be subject to the Drag-Along Right, all holders of the same class or series of capital stock will be given the same option; provided, however that nothing in this Section 2(c)(vii)(D) shall entitle any holder to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is generally applicable to the Company’s stockholders; provided, further that an Investor that is an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries may be given an option to receive securities in lieu of cash consideration in a “rollover transaction” without offering the same to other Investors as long as such securities are of an equivalent value at the closing of the Drag-Along Sale as the consideration paid to the other Investors; and
(E)notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, no Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor shall be required to make any non-compete with respect to any transaction proposed to be subject to the Drag-Along Right.
(viii)Grant of Irrevocable Proxy.  Each Other Investor, hereby grants to the Triggering Stockholder such Other Investor’s proxy, and appoints the Triggering Stockholders, or any designee or nominee of the triggering stockholders, as such Investor’s attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution and resubstitition), for and in its name, place and stead, (i) to vote or act by written consent with respect to the Shares (including any Purchased Equity Shares or Granted Equity Shares) now or hereafter Owned by such Other Investor (or any Transferee thereof) (including the right to sign his, her or its name to any consent, certificate or other document relating to the Company that applicable law may require) in connection with any and all matters contemplated by Section 2(c) or (ii) to take any and all reasonable action necessary to sell or otherwise Transfer any Shares (including any Purchased Equity Shares or Granted Equity Shares) Owned by such Investor as contemplated by Section 2(c) hereof.  This proxy is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and each such Other Investor will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy and, except with respect to any other proxy given by the Other Investor to the Company or the Triggering Stockholders (or pursuant to the purchase agreement), hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by such Other Investor with respect to such Other Investor’s Shares.  In the event that the proxy granted in this Section 2(c)(viii) is inconsistent with the terms of any other proxy granted by an Other Investor to the Triggering Stockholders or any other Person, including pursuant to any stock incentive or other equity compensation plan of the Company, then the terms of the proxy granted in this Section 2(c)(viii) shall govern.  In the event that any or all provisions of this Section 2(c)(viii) are determined to be unenforceable, each Other Investor will enter into a proxy that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, preserves the intent and provides the Triggering Stockholders substantially the same benefits of this Section 2(c)(viii).  
(d)Right of First Offer.
(i)If either the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors or their respective Permitted Transferees (each, a “Transferor”) intends to Transfer any Shares Owned by the Transferor (other than Transfers described in Section 2(d)(v)) in a Transfer permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Transferor shall first provide written notice (the 
15

“Transfer Notice”) to the Warburg Investors or the Tiptree Investors, respectively (collectively, the “Non-Transferring Investors”) of its bona fide intention to Transfer such number of Shares (the “Offered Shares”) set forth in the Transfer Notice.  A Transfer Notice may be given prior to the time a Transfer would be permitted in accordance with this Agreement, but no earlier than 90 days prior to such time.
(ii)One or more Non-Transferring Investors may (but are not obligated to) offer to purchase all or any portion of the Offered Shares at a price and on other terms set forth in a written notice (the “Offer Notice”) delivered to the Transferor(s) within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Transfer Notice (the “ROFO Option Period”).  Any Offer Notice that is delivered shall be a legally binding and irrevocable offer by the Non-Transferring Investor delivering such Offer Notice (each such Non-Transferring Investor, a “ROFO Joining Investor”) to purchase such amount of the Offered Shares at the price and on the terms set forth in such Offer Notice, capable of being accepted by the applicable Transferor within thirty (30) days from the receipt of the Offer Notice.  If a Transferor accepts any such offer, then the Transferor and the applicable ROFO Joining Investors shall negotiate in good faith to consummate such Transfer within thirty (30) days of such acceptance.
(iii)If (x) the Transferor rejects (or fails to timely accept) the Offer Notices received, (y) no ROFO Joining Investors deliver any Offer Notices or (z) the Transferor accepts an Offer Notice and definitive agreements to effect such Transfer are not entered into within thirty (30) days following such acceptance or such agreement is entered into and is not timely consummated in accordance with the terms thereof, then within one hundred twenty (120) days (provided, that if a definitive agreement to effect such transfer is entered into within such 120-day period, then the Transferor shall have 180 days to consummate such transaction from entry into such definitive agreement, with an additional 180 days for any approvals or authorizations that are required under applicable laws) of (1) the receipt of the Offer Notices, if delivered, (2) the expiration of the ROFO Option Period or (3) solely in the case of clause (z), from the expiration of the time to enter into or consummate such Transfer, then, subject to compliance with all other applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Transferor may sell all, or any portion, of the Offered Shares to any Person not engaged in a Competing Business; provided that (A) solely in the event the ROFO Joining Investors collectively timely deliver Offer Notices with respect to all (but not less than all) of the Offered Shares, such Transfer may only be for a per Share amount equal to or greater than the lowest price per Share set forth in the Offer Notices and otherwise no less favorable to the Transferor than those offered in the Offer Notices and (B) solely in the event one or more ROFO Joining Investors timely deliver an Offer Notice with respect to less than all of the Offered Shares, such Transfer is not required to be for a per Share amount equal to or greater than the lowest price set forth in the Offer Notice if the acquirer acquires at least five percent (5%) more Offered Shares than offered collectively by the ROFO Joining Investors.

(e)Preemptive Rights.
(i)If at any time on or after the date hereof and prior to the Initial Public Offering, subject to compliance with Section 1(g), the Company or its Subsidiaries proposes to issue (x) equity securities of any kind (for purposes of this Section 2(e), the term “equity securities” shall include any warrants, options or other rights to acquire equity securities or debt securities convertible into equity securities) of the Company or (y) debt securities of any kind to which any Tiptree Investor or any of their Affiliates subscribe (in each case, other than the issuance of securities (A) upon conversion of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, or exercise of the Warrants (B) to the public in a firm commitment underwriting pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (C) pursuant to the acquisition of another Person (not affiliated with any Tiptree Investor) by the Company or any Subsidiary, whether by purchase of stock, merger, consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such Person or otherwise, provided such acquisition has been approved by the Board, and such securities are being issued as consideration for the transaction and not in connection with financing the transaction, (D) pursuant to an employee stock option plan, stock bonus plan, stock purchase plan, employment agreement or other management equity program, in each case, approved by the Board, (E) upon conversion or exercise of any security convertible into or exercisable for any equity securities, provided that such convertible or exercisable security that were issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (F) to vendors, lenders and customers of and consultants to the Company or any Subsidiary or in connection with a strategic partnership (provided such securities are (1) being issued as consideration for the strategic partnership and not in connection with financing the strategic partnership, (2) being issued to the Company or another wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company by a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company), in each case, to the extent such issuance has been approved by the Board, (G) immaterial issuances by Subsidiaries of the Company, solely to the extent such issuance is required by applicable law, (H) by reason of a dividend, stock split or other distribution on shares of Common Stock, (I) to any Investor that is an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries, pursuant to the terms of any employment or similar agreement between the Company and such Investor to the extent such employment or similar agreement was approved by the Board or (J) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement), then, subject to the provisions set forth below, as to each Qualified Investor and, in the case of any issuance to a Qualified Investor, each Other Investor (other than any such Other Investor that 
17

cannot demonstrate to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that such Other Investor is at the time of the proposed issuance of such securities an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act) (each a “Preemptive Right Investor”), the Company shall:
(A)give written notice setting forth in reasonable detail (1) the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”), including where applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualification, limitations or restrictions thereof and interest or dividend rate and maturity; (2) the price and other terms of the proposed sale of such securities; (3) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; and (4) such other information as a Preemptive Right Investor may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance; and
(B)offer to issue to each such Preemptive Right Investor for the same price (it being agreed that if such price was to be paid not in cash, the Preemptive Right Investors may pay for such Proposed Securities in cash equal to the Fair Market Value thereof) a portion of the Proposed Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing (x) the number of shares of Common Stock Owned by such Preemptive Right Investor as a result of Purchased Equity Shares (excluding, for the sake of clarity, any Granted Equity Shares, whether or not vested), determined on an As Converted Basis, by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding on an As Converted Basis (such portion of Proposed Securities in respect of Preemptive Right Investor, such Preemptive Right Investor’s “Full Allotment”); provided, that in the case of issuance by a non-wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company, the Full Allotment shall be further multiplied by the direct or indirect ownership percentage by the Company of such Subsidiary. 
(ii)Each such Preemptive Right Investor may exercise his, her or its purchase rights hereunder by delivering an irrevocable written notice to the Company within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Company, which notice shall state the dollar amount of Proposed Securities such Preemptive Right Investor would like to purchase up to a maximum amount equal to such Preemptive Right Investor’s Full Allotment plus the additional dollar amount of the Proposed Securities such Subscription Right Investor would like to purchase in excess of its Full Allotment (the “Over-Allotment Amount”), if any, if other Subscription Right Investors do not elect to purchase their full allotment of the Proposed Securities.  The right of each Subscription Right Investor to purchase Proposed Securities in excess of its Full Allotment shall be apportioned based on the relative Full Allotments of those Subscription Right Investors desiring Over-Allotment Amounts (as indicated in such irrevocable written notice).  To the extent that the Company offers two or more securities to all prospective purchasers in a proposed issuance in units, such as convertible notes coupled with attached warrants (and only in such units), such Preemptive Right Investors must purchase such units as a whole and will not be given the opportunity to purchase only one of the securities making up such unit.
(iii)Upon the expiration of the offering periods described above, the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that such Preemptive Right Investors have 
18

not elected to purchase during the one hundred twenty (120) days following such expiration on terms and conditions not more favorable, taken as a whole (but with aggregate economic terms not more favorable), to the purchasers thereof than those offered to such Preemptive Right Investors.  Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such ninety (90)-day period must be reoffered to such Preemptive Right Investors pursuant to this Section 2(d).
(iv)Except as set forth in Section 2(e)(iii), the election by a Preemptive Right Investor not to exercise such Preemptive Right Investor’s subscription rights under this Section 2(d) in any one instance shall not affect such Preemptive Right Investor’s right (other than in respect of a reduction in such Preemptive Right Investor’s percentage holdings) as to any subsequent proposed issuance subject to this Section 2(d).  If the Board determines in good faith that it is in the best interest of the Company to sell the Proposed Securities to one or more Tiptree Investors or their respective Affiliates, the Company shall be permitted to sell such Proposed Securities to such Tiptree Investors and/or their respective Affiliates without first complying with Section 2(e)(i), provided that promptly following such sale, the Company permits each other Preemptive Right Investor having rights under this Section 2(d) to purchase such Preemptive Right Investor’s proportionate amount of such Proposed Securities in the manner contemplated by this Section 2(d); provided, further, that in the event the Company desires to sell such Proposed Securities to a Tiptree Investor or its Affiliates in reliance on this Section 2(e)(iv), then such Proposed Securities may only be sold to such Tiptree Investor or its Affiliates if they are concurrently offered to be sold to the Warburg Investors.  Following the issuance of any Proposed Securities to such Tiptree Investors and/or their respective Affiliates and prior to the issuance of the Proposed Securities to any other Preemptive Right Investor in accordance with this Section 2(e)(iv), the Company shall not set a record date for any meeting or dividend, shall not permit any stockholder action by written consent to be taken, shall not convene any meeting of the stockholders and shall not take any other action, in each case, the result of which could reasonably be expected to be influenced by a decision of a Preemptive Right Investor to purchase any Proposed Securities.
(v)Each such Preemptive Right Investor shall, if requested by the Company, execute a stockholders agreement (or consent to an amendment to this Agreement) with respect to such Proposed Securities with terms that are (to the extent practicable) substantially equivalent to, mutatis mutandis, the terms of this Agreement.  If any Subsidiary of the Company offers any additional equity securities (“New Subsidiary Securities”) to any Person (other than to the Company or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, wholly-owned by the Company), then this Section 2(d) will apply to any such offering of New Subsidiary Securities, and each Preemptive Right Investor shall have the right to purchase a portion of such New Subsidiary Securities offered thereunder as though they were equity securities pursuant to this Section 2(d), mutatis mutandis.  
(f)Exit Rights. 
(i)At any time from and after the earlier of (A) [●], 2026 and (B) the consummation of a Change of Control of Tiptree (such earlier date, the “Exit Event Triggering Date”), if a Qualified Public Offering has not been consummated prior thereto, upon a request of 
19

the Warburg Investors, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to consummate (at the Company’s expense) a Qualified Public Offering as promptly as practicable thereafter and, in any event, prior to the twelve (12) month anniversary of such request; provided that at the request of the Warburg Investors, the Company shall take such steps as may be reasonably requested by the Warburg Investors in preparation of effecting such Qualified Public Offering six (6) months prior to the Exit Event Triggering Date (excluding, for clarity, making any public filing or otherwise making public its intention to effect a Qualified Public Offering), including engaging (at the Company’s expense) a nationally-recognized investment bank reasonably acceptable to the Warburg Investors to assist the Company in effecting a Qualified Public Offering and preparing the relevant offering documents, such that upon the Exit Event Triggering Date the Company shall be prepared to commence any applicable “road shows” or other substantive steps to effect the Qualified Public Offering.  The Company shall keep the Warburg Investors reasonably apprised of the efforts to consummate such Qualified Public Offering.  
(ii)In the event that the Company does not consummate a Qualified Public Offering within twelve (12) months of the Warburg Investors’ request to initiate a Qualified Public Offering pursuant to Section 2(f)(i) or at any time following a Change of Control of Tiptree, if a Qualified Public Offering has not been consummated prior thereto, upon the request of the Warburg Investors, the Board shall establish a committee of the Board, on which committee designees of the Warburg Investors shall hold a majority of the votes, and delegate to such committee customary powers, to explore strategic alternatives to the Company, including a Deemed Liquidation Event of the Company and in good faith pursue such a process, with authority to engage (at the Company’s expense) a nationally-recognized investment bank to assist the Company in such process.  The Company shall direct its directors, officers and employees to cooperate with such committee.  The Company and the Tiptree Investors shall not be required to accept any particular proposal.  Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, in the event that the Company does not consummate a Deemed Liquidation Event within twelve (12) months of the commencement of the foregoing process, the Warburg Investors shall have the right to exercise Drag-Along Rights as Triggering Stockholders under Section 2(c).  The Company shall keep the Warburg Investors reasonably apprised of the efforts to effect such a transaction.  
(iii)The Tiptree Investors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Warburg Investors and the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with any of the actions or transactions contemplated by this Section 2(f).

All terms of the organizational documents and any constitutive or organizational documents of the Company not contradictory to, or inconsistent with, the terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  In the case that any one or more of the provisions contained in Section 4(a) shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law in any jurisdiction or with respect to the applicable Investor, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective to the extent, and only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and shall not affect the enforceability of any other provision in such jurisdiction or the enforcement of the entirety of Section 4(a) in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction and with respect to the applicable Investor as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any court determines that any of the covenants or agreements set forth in Section 4(a) are overbroad under applicable law in time, geographical scope or otherwise, the parties hereto specifically agree and authorize such court to rewrite this Agreement to reflect the maximum time, geographical and/or other restrictions permitted under applicable law to be reasonable and enforceable; provided that if such courts are unable or unwilling to reform such invalid or unenforceable provision of Section 4(a) that the parties hereto will use reasonable best efforts to amend such invalid and unenforceable provision.

The parties hereto herby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and, if such court lacks jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and, if such court lacks jurisdiction, any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware, in respect of the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and all claims, disputes, controversies or proceedings hereunder (or in connection with the negotiation hereof), and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or 
36

proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the parties hereto irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a United States District Court for the District of Delaware or the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware.

EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER AND (B) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY.
(j)Specific Performance.  It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that, in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Person will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law.  Any such party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
