Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1(e)(i), if (A) a Public Offering has been consummated and the Yield Test Event has not occurred on or prior to date which is the two (2) year anniversary of such Public Offering, or (B) a Public Offering has not been consummated and the Yield Test Event has not occurred on or prior to (or in connection with) a Partnership Sale (within the meaning of clause (iv) of the definition of Partnership Sale) (taking into account the consideration to be received by the LGP Investors and/or the CVC Investors in such Partnership Sale), but, in either case in clause (A) or (B) the amounts which the LGP Investors (in the aggregate) or the CVC Investors (in the aggregate) have received and/or are deemed to receive for purposes of the Yield Test Event on or prior to the date which is the two (2) year anniversary of such Public Offering (in the case of clause (A)), or upon the occurrence of such Partnership Sale (in the case of clause (B)) (the “Deemed Received Amounts”) are at least equal to 1.0x the Applicable Capital Contributions of such LGP Investors or CVC Investors (respectively and as applicable), then a Proportionate Amount of the Common Series C-2 Units originally issued to each recipient of such issuance shall not be forfeited by reason of Section 3.1(e)(i), and such Proportionate Amount of Common Series C-2 Units shall remain issued and outstanding for all purposes and shall not be subject to forfeiture (such Proportionate Amount of Common Series C-2 Units shall be considered as Units which have satisfied the Yield Test Event). For this purpose, the “Proportionate Amount” of Common Series C-2 Units shall be equal to a percentage, which percentage shall be the greater of: (x) the Deemed Received Amounts with respect to the LGP Investors minus the Applicable Capital Contributions of the LGP Investors, divided by the excess of the product of 1.5 times the Applicable Capital Contributions of the LGP Investors minus the Applicable Capital Contributions of the LGP Investors, or (y) the Deemed Received Amounts with respect to the CVC Investors minus the Applicable Capital Contributions of the CVC Investors, divided by the product of 1.5 times the Applicable Capital Contributions of the CVC Investors minus the Applicable Capital Contributions of the CVC Investors. For the avoidance of doubt, the Proportionate Amount shall not exceed 100% in any case.

33

For example, if, in a scenario where a Public Offering has occurred and, as of the two (2) year anniversary of such Public Offering, the Deemed Received Amounts with respect to the LGP Investors is determined to be $1,250x, and the Applicable Capital Contributions of the LGP Investors is $1,000x, then the percentage described in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to the LGP Investors would be 50% (i.e., ($1,250x minus $1,000x) divided by ((1.5 times $1,000x) minus $1,000), or $250x divided by $500x = 50%). If, in this same example, the percentage determined with respect to the CVC Investors as of such time is also 50%, then, in this example, 50% of the Common Series C-2 Units shall continue to remain outstanding and 50% of such Common Series C-2 Units shall be deemed forfeited as of such two (2) year anniversary date by reason of Section 3.1(e)(i) and (ii).

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Public Offering has (x) occurred, Common Series C-2 Units shall be forfeited immediately following the date which is the two (2) year anniversary of such Public Offering unless such Common Series C-2 Units remain outstanding pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 3.1(e) or (y) not occurred, Common Series C-2 Units shall be forfeited immediately following the date of a Partnership Sale (within the meaning of clause (iv) of the definition of Partnership Sale) unless such Common Series C-2 Units remain outstanding pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 3.1(e).

(iii) Voluntary Resignations and Terminations for Cause. In the event that any grantee of Common Series C-2 Units voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Partnership and all of its Subsidiaries (other than for Good Reason) or is terminated by the Partnership and all of its Subsidiaries for Cause and such voluntary termination or termination for Cause occurs at any time prior to the earlier of (x) the date (if any) upon which Yield Test Event has been met with respect to the Common Series C-2 Units issued to such grantee (as determined pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii), above), and (y) the date which is the two (2) year anniversary of any Public Offering or the date of a Partnership Sale (within the meaning of clause (iv) of the definition of Partnership Sale), as applicable, then all of the Common Series C-2 Units issued to such grantee shall thereupon be forfeited and shall no longer be considered to be issued and outstanding.

(f) Safe Harbor Election.

(i) By executing this Agreement, each Partner authorizes and directs the Partnership to elect to have the “safe harbor” described in the proposed Revenue Procedure set forth in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-43 (the “Notice”) apply to any interest in the Partnership transferred to a service provider by the Partnership (such as a Common Series C Unit) on or after the effective date of such Revenue Procedure in connection with services provided to the Partnership. For purposes of making such safe harbor election, the Tax Matters Partner or the Partnership Representative, as the case may be, is hereby designated as the “partner who has responsibility for federal income tax reporting” by the Partnership and accordingly, for execution of a “safe, harbor election” in accordance with Section 3.03(1) of the Notice. The Partnership and each Partner hereby agree to comply with all requirements of the safe harbor described in the Notice, including the requirement that each Partner shall prepare and file all federal income tax returns

34

reporting the income tax effects of each safe harbor partnership interest issued by the Partnership in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Notice.

(ii) A Partner’s obligations to comply with the requirements of this Section 3.1(f) shall survive such Partner’s ceasing to be a Partner of the Partnership and/or the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Partnership, and, for purposes of this Section 3.1(f) the Partnership shall be treated as continuing in existence.

(iii) Each Partner authorizes the Tax Matters Partner or the Partnership Representative, as the case may be, to amend Sections 3.1(f)(i) and 3.1(f)(ii) to the extent necessary to achieve substantially the same tax treatment with respect to any interest in the Partnership transferred to a service provider by the Partnership in connection with services provided to the Partnership as set forth in Section 4 of the Notice (e.g., to reflect changes from the rules set forth in the Notice in subsequent Internal Revenue Service or Treasury Department guidance); provided, that such amendment is not materially adverse to such Partner (as compared with the after-tax consequences that would result if the provisions of the Notice applied to all interests in the Partnership transferred to a service provider by the Partnership in connection with services provided to the Partnership).

(g) Tax Treatment. The Common Series C-2 Units have each been issued (and/or will be issued) solely to Persons who were pre-existing Partners of the date of such issuance. The intentions of the Partnership and the parties to this Agreement regarding the issuance of the Common Series C-2 Units (and/or any issuances of additional Common Series C Units to Persons who are pre-existing Partners) is that such issuances of Units shall not, for any U.S. federal and applicable state and local tax purposes, constitute a taxable issuance of new Units in the Partnership. Except as otherwise required by law, neither the Partnership nor any of the parties to this Agreement shall take any position on any tax return or related filing which is inconsistent with the intentions described in this Section 3.1(g).

(h) Public Company Equity Incentive Plan. The Partnership shall approve and cause the Public Company to adopt and maintain an equity incentive plan for making grants to management and other service providers to the Public Company with such terms and with respect to such number of shares as shall be determined by the board of directors of the Public Company in its good faith discretion.

3.2 Admission of Partners; Additional Partners.

(a) Schedule of Units; Schedule of Partners. The Partnership shall maintain and keep at the principal office of the Partnership designated pursuant to Section 2.5 (i) a Schedule of Units on which it shall set forth the aggregate number of Units of each class and the aggregate amount of cash Capital Contributions that have been made by each Partner and the Fair Market Value of any property other than cash contributed by each Partner with respect to the Units (including, if applicable, a description and the amount of any liability assumed by the Partnership or to which contributed property is subject), and (ii) a Schedule of Partners on which it shall set forth the names and address of each Partner. The Partnership shall also maintain a schedule setting forth the name and address of each Partner, the number of Units of each class owned by such Partner and the aggregate Capital Contributions that have been made by such Partner with respect

35

to such Partner’s Units. An updated copy of the Schedule of Partners shall be made available to any Partner upon written request to the Partnership; provided, that certain confidential information or sensitive information may, in the discretion of the Board, be redacted from the information provided to any Partner, other than a CVC Investor, a LGP Investor or a Daymon Holder, and the Schedule of Units shall be available to any holders of Common Series A Units.

(b) Additional Partners. Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner shall have the right to admit Additional Partners. A Person may be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Partner upon compliance with the express provisions of this Agreement and upon furnishing to the General Partner (i) a joinder agreement, in form satisfactory to the General Partner, pursuant to which such Person agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) such other documents or instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s admission as a Partner (including entering into an investor representation agreement or such other documents as the General Partner may deem appropriate). Such admission shall become effective on the date on which the General Partner determines that such conditions have been satisfied and when any such admission is shown on the books and records of the Partnership. Upon the admission of an Additional Partner, the Schedule of Partners shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units and other interests in the Partnership of such Additional Partner.

3.3 Capital Accounts.

(a) The Partnership shall maintain a separate capital account for each Limited Partner according to the rules of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) (each a “Capital Account”). The Capital Account of each Limited Partner shall be credited initially with an amount equal to such Limited Partner’s cash contributions and the initial Gross Asset Value of any property contributed to the Partnership by the Limited Partner (net of any liabilities securing such contributed property that the Partnership is considered to assume or take subject to).

(b) The Capital Account of each Limited Partner shall (i) be credited with all Income allocated to such Limited Partner pursuant to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, and with the amount equal to such Limited Partner’s cash contributions and the initial Gross Asset Value of any property contributed to the Partnership by the Limited Partner (net of any liabilities securing such contributed property that the Partnership is considered to assume or take subject to) following the Original Effective Date, and (ii) be debited with all Loss allocated to such Limited Partner pursuant to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, and with the amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value of any property (net of liabilities assumed by such Limited Partner and liabilities to which such property is subject) distributed by the Partnership to such Limited Partner.

(c) The Partnership may, upon the occurrence of the events specified in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), increase or decrease the Capital Accounts of the Limited Partners in accordance with the rules of such Regulations and Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) to reflect a revaluation of Partnership property.

3.4 Negative Capital Accounts. No Limited Partner shall be required to pay to any other Limited Partner or the Partnership any deficit or negative balance that may exist from time to time

36

in such Limited Partner’s Capital Account (including upon and after dissolution of the Partnership).

3.5 No Withdrawal. No Person shall be entitled to withdraw any part of such Person’s Capital Contributions or Capital Account or to receive any Distribution from the Partnership, except as expressly provided herein.

3.6 Loans from Partners. Loans by Partners to the Partnership shall not be considered Capital Contributions. If any Partner shall loan funds to the Partnership, then the making of such loans shall not result in any increase in the Capital Account balance of such Partner. The amount of any such loans shall be a debt of the Partnership to such Partner and shall be payable or collectible in accordance with the terms and conditions upon which such loans are made.

3.7 No Right of Partition. No Limited Partner shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation of law of any property of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, or, except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, be entitled to Distributions of specific assets of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries.

3.8 Non-Certification of Units; Legend; Units Are Securities. Units shall be issued in non-certificated form; provided that the General Partner may cause the Partnership to issue certificates to a Limited Partner representing the Units held by such Limited Partner. If any Unit certificate is issued, then such certificate shall bear a legend substantially in the following form:

THIS CERTIFICATE EVIDENCES A COMMON UNIT REPRESENTING AN INTEREST IN KARMAN TOPCO L.P.

THE INTEREST IN KARMAN TOPCO L.P. REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN THAT CERTAIN LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT OF KARMAN TOPCO L.P., DATED AS OF AUGUST 29, 2018 BY AND AMONG KARMAN GP LLC, AS GENERAL PARTNER, AND EACH OF THE LIMITED PARTNERS FROM TIME TO TIME PARTY THERETO, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME.

ARTICLE IV

DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1 Distributions.

(a) General. No distributions shall be made to the General Partner. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4 and Section 4.6, the General Partner shall have sole discretion regarding the amount and timing of Distributions to the Limited Partners. All such Distributions shall (subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.1, and subject to any other applicable provisions of this Agreement) be made in the following order of priority (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties intend that for purposes of applying the following priorities, the Distributions made from time to time under this Section 4.1 shall be given cumulative effect):

37

(i) first, 100% to the Common Series A Limited Partners and the Common Series B Limited Partners, ratably among such Common Series A Limited Partners and Common Series B Limited Partners in proportion to the then aggregate Unreturned Common Capital Amount with respect to all Common Series A Units and Common Series B Units then held by each such Common Series A Limited Partner and Common Series B Limited Partner until the Unreturned Common Capital Amount in respect of all outstanding Common Series A Units and Common Series B Units is equal to zero; and

(ii) second, until the point in time upon which the holders of Common Series C-2 Units have received distributions pursuant to this Section 4.1(a)(ii) equal to the Targeted Common Series C-2 Amount, any such additional Distributions shall be made among the Limited Partners as follows: All such amounts shall initially be apportioned among the holders of Units (other than Common Series C-2 Units) ratably based on the proportionate number of Common Units (other than Common Series C-2 Units) held by each such holder (such initial apportionment to be done without regard to any otherwise applicable Threshold Limitation), and all such amounts initially apportioned to holders of Common Series A Units, Common Series B Units or Common Series D Units shall be distributed to such holders, and all such amounts initially apportioned to such holders of Common Series C Units shall be distributed as follows:

(1) Any such amounts shall be distributed to such holders of Common Series C Units (ratably to each based on their relative holdings of such Common Series C Units); provided, however, that any such amounts which are not distributable to any such holder of such Common Series C Units by reason of the application of any Threshold Limitation shall, in lieu of being distributed to such holder of such Common Series C Units, instead be distributed to the holders of the Common Series C-2 Units (ratably to each based on their relative holdings of such Common Series C-2 Units), subject to the provisions of clause (2) of this Section 4.1(a)(ii).

(2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that the maximum aggregate amounts which shall be distributable with respect to the holders of the Common Series C-2 Units pursuant to this Agreement (including in connection with any Exchanges) shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to the Targeted Common Series C-2 Amount.

(iii) third, following the point in time upon which holders of Common Series C-2 Units have received aggregate distributions pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(ii) equal to the Targeted Common Series C-2 Amount, any additional Distributions shall be distributed to all Limited Partners ratably among such Limited Partners in proportion to the aggregate number of Common Units (other than Common Series C-2 Units) then held by such Limited Partners.

(b) Modifications for Certain Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 4.1, shall be subject to the following provisions:

38

(i) Escrow for Subject Units. The portion of any Distributions pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(ii) or (iii) above, in respect of Unvested Common Series C Units and any Pre-Yield Tested Series C-2 Units (collectively, the “Subject Units”) shall be deposited with a third-party escrow agent to be reasonably acceptable to the Partnership, with respect to the applicable Common Series C Limited Partners and Common Series C-2 Limited Partners, such third-party escrow agent to be engaged on terms reasonably acceptable to the Partnership, with respect to the applicable Common Series C Limited Partners and Common Series C-2 Limited Partners (such portion, the “Escrowed Distributions”). Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, after the point in time upon which any Unvested Common Series C Units or any Common Series C-2 Unit is no longer a Pre-Yield Tested Series C-2 Unit and has not been forfeited (and therefor, any such Unit is no longer considered to be a Subject Unit, in each case also referred to as a “Released Unit”), the portion of the Escrowed Distributions (and any earnings accrued thereon) that would have been distributed with respect to such Released Unit but for the application of the immediately preceding sentence shall be released from such escrow and shall be disbursed to the applicable holder of such Released Unit. Promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, after the forfeiture of any Subject Unit in accordance with the terms of the applicable Restricted Unit Agreement or this Agreement, the portion of the Escrowed Distributions (and any earnings accrued thereon) that would have been distributed to the holder of such Subject Unit but for the application of the first sentence of this paragraph (i), shall be released from such escrow (the “Released Amounts”) and shall be disbursed as described in Section 4.1(c).

(ii) Re-Allocation of Distributions on Forfeited Units. In the event of any Distribution which occurs after the forfeiture of any Subject Unit in accordance with the terms of the applicable Restricted Unit Agreement or this Agreement, any amounts which, but for such forfeiture, would have been distributed (or escrowed) to the holder of such forfeited Unit pursuant to Section 4.1(a) (such amounts, together with any Released Amounts, being collectively referred to as “Reallocated Distributions”), shall be distributed as described in Section 4.1(c).

(c) Reallocation of Forfeited Amounts. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 4.1(a):

(i) Common Series C Amounts. Any Reallocated Distributions which are attributable to forfeited Common Series C Units shall be disbursed or distributed as follows:

(1) To the extent such amounts relate to forfeited Common Series C Units which were forfeited due solely to the fact that such Common Series C Units have not met the definition of Vesting Exit Event for 20% Common Series C Units, such amounts shall be disbursed to the Partnership.

(2) To the extent that such amounts are not described in the immediately preceding clause (1), such amounts will be distributed among such holders of outstanding Common Series C Units (and in such proportions) as shall be designated by the chief executive officer of Advantage Solutions, Inc. with approval of the General

39

Partner, and, in the event that a Public Offering has then occurred, and such amounts are not so designated by such chief executive officer and approved by the General Partner on or prior to the forty-two (42) month anniversary of such Public Offering, such amounts shall be distributed among the holders of Common Series C Units pro rata based on the numbers of such Common Series C Units held by each such holder (and, for this purpose, each holder shall be deemed to hold any Common Series C Units that are no longer outstanding by reason of Section 9.6(a) or (b)).

(ii) Common Series C-2 Amounts. Any Reallocated Distributions attributable to forfeited Common Series C-2 Units shall be disbursed or distributed as follows:

(1) To the extent that such amounts relate to forfeited Common Series C-2 Units which were forfeited solely by reason of the application of Section 3.1(e)(i), above (as determined after taking into account the application of Section 3.1(e)(ii), above), such Reallocated Distributions shall be disbursed to the Partnership.

(2) To the extent that such amounts are not described in the immediately preceding clause (1), such Reallocated Distributions will be distributed among such holders of outstanding Common Series C Units and/or Common Series C-2 Units (and in such proportions) as shall be designated by the chief executive officer of Advantage Solutions, Inc. with approval of the General Partner, and, in the event that a Public Offering has then occurred and such amounts are not so designated and approved on or prior to the forty-two (42) month anniversary of such Public Offering, such amounts shall be distributed to the holders of Common Series C-2 Units which are outstanding as of such time (i.e. not including such forfeited Common Series C-2 Units) in proportion to their relative holdings of such Common Series C-2 Units until the aggregate amounts distributed pursuant to this Agreement with respect to all Common Series C-2 Units is equal to the Targeted Common Series C-2 Amount.

(d) Reallocations for Daymon Series C Distributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 50% of the amount of Distributions made pursuant to Section 4.1 to Common Series C Limited Partners that are Daymon Management Holders (the “Daymon Reduced Amount”) shall reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, Distributions that would otherwise be payable pursuant to Section 4.1 to Common Series A Limited Partners that are Daymon Holders and Common Series B Limited Partners and Common Series C Limited Partners that are Daymon Management Holders. The Daymon Reduced Amount shall instead be Distributed to all Holders that are not Daymon Holders or Daymon Management Holders in accordance with Section 4.1. The Daymon Reduced Amount shall be borne by the Daymon Holders and Daymon Management Holders pro rata based upon a “reverse waterfall” calculation.

(e) Reallocations for Additional Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Vesting Exit Event for 20% Common Series C Units has occurred or a Yield Test Event has occurred, any Distributions payable to any Limited Partner in accordance with Section 4.1(a)(ii) and (iii) above which occur on or following the occurrence of such Vesting Exit Event or Yield Test Event, as applicable, shall (to the extent of Distributions available on or following the occurrence of such Vesting Exit Event or Yield Test Event) be reallocated among the Limited

40

Partners as necessary to cause each Limited Partner to have received cumulative Distributions from December 18, 2017, through and including the date of such Distribution in an amount equal to what such Limited Partners would have received if the Daymon Holders and the Daymon Management Holders had, in addition to the Units actually held by such Limited Partners, held the Additional Units from December 18, 2017, through and including the date of such Distribution. Each Daymon Holder and Daymon Management Holder shall be deemed to own a portion of the Additional Units equal to the portion of the aggregate Common Series A Units, Common Series B Units, or Common Series C Units, as applicable, held by all Daymon Holders and Daymon Managements Holders that are held by such Daymon Holder or Daymon Management Holder.

4.2 Successors. For purposes of determining the amount of Distributions, each Limited Partner shall be treated as having made the Capital Contributions and as having received the Distributions made to or received by its predecessors in respect of any of such Limited Partner’s Units.

4.3 Distributions In-Kind. To the extent that the Partnership distributes property in-kind to the Limited Partners (including pursuant to any Exchange, Piggyback Exchange or any distributions pursuant to Section 4.6), the Partnership shall be treated as making a Distribution pursuant to Section 4.1 equal to the Fair Market Value of such property for purposes of Section 4.1 and such property shall be treated as if it were sold in a hypothetical sale for an amount equal to its Fair Market Value. Any resulting hypothetical gain or loss shall be allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Limited Partners receiving such Distributions in accordance with Sections 5.1 and 5.2. If the Partnership distributes property in-kind that was contributed to the Partnership by the Daymon Holders (or received in a tax-deferred exchange for property (i) contributed to the Partnership by the Daymon Holders or (ii) previously received in a tax-deferred exchange for property contributed to the Partnership by the Daymon Holders), the Partnership will, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, distribute (and be deemed to distribute) such property to the Daymon Holders who contributed such property to the Partnership, to the extent that such Daymon Holders is entitled to receive a Distribution at such time under this ARTICLE IV. In the event the Partnership distributes property in-kind to the CVC Holders or the LGP Holders, the Daymon Holders shall be afforded the option (with reasonable prior written notice) to receive its pro rata share of such in-kind distribution. If the Partnership makes a Distribution that is part cash and part in-kind, in no event will the Daymon Holders be allocated a proportion of cash and in-kind different than their pro rata share of each, without the prior written consent of the Majority Daymon Holder. The preceding two sentences shall not apply after an initial Public Offering; provided that, following an initial Public Offering, any in-kind distribution mechanisms that are employed in order to deliver CVC Holders or the LGP Holders the benefit of their respective registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement (or similar liquidity rights under this Agreement) shall similarly be applied to enable other Limited Partners to obtain the benefit of their respective registration rights (if any) under the Registration Rights Agreement (or similar liquidity rights under this Agreement).

4.4 Tax Distributions. Subject to the Delaware Act and to any restrictions contained in any agreement to which the Partnership is bound and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.1, for each Fiscal Year the Partnership shall, to the extent that the Partnership has cash available therefor (whether on-hand or from borrowings), and as determined after taking into account

41

Partnership expenses and liabilities which are then due and payable, but prior to taking into account amounts otherwise distributable pursuant to Section 4.1, make a Distribution in cash (each a “Tax Distribution”) to each Limited Partner in an amount equal to the excess of (a) the product of (i) the aggregate cumulative net taxable income for all taxable periods allocated by the Partnership to the Limited Partner (including in respect of Escrowed Distributions) (with any prior taxable losses allocated by the Partnership to such Limited Partner, reducing such aggregate cumulative net taxable income), in each case, based upon (A) the information returns filed by the Partnership, as amended or adjusted to date, and (B) estimated amounts, in the case of periods for which the Partnership has not yet filed information returns, and (ii) the Assumed Tax Rate, over (b) all prior Distributions (excluding Escrowed Distributions except to the extent actually distributed to the applicable Partner from the escrow) pursuant to this Section 4.4. All Distributions made to a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be treated as advance Distributions under Section 4.1 based on the corresponding provision that pertained to the taxable income in question that generated the need for a Tax Distribution and shall be taken into account in determining the amount subsequently distributable to such Limited Partner under Section 4.1.

4.5 Right of Set-Off. As security for any obligations of a Limited Partner (in such Limited Partner’s capacity as a Limited Partner) to the Partnership under any provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement between such Limited Partner (in such Limited Partner’s capacity as a Limited Partner), on the one hand, and the Partnership and/or its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, the Partnership shall have (and each Limited Partner hereby grants to the Partnership) a right to set off any such amounts against any Distributions to such Limited Partner. In addition, whenever the Partnership is to pay any sum to any Limited Partner or any Affiliate or related Person thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any amounts that such Limited Partner or such Affiliate or related Person owes to the Partnership under any promissory note issued to the Partnership as partial payment for any Units of the Partnership may be deducted from that sum before payment.

4.6 Dissolution Transaction; Sales for Share Consideration; Post-IPO Sales.

(a) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of, and as a condition to any transaction (including a liquidation, dissolution, Distribution and Recapitalization) the direct or indirect result of which is for the Limited Partners prior to such transaction to directly or indirectly own (beneficially or of record) all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries (as determined on a consolidated basis) other than through the Partnership, in each case, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions (each, a “Dissolution Transaction”), the Partnership, the LGP Holders, the CVC Holders, the Daymon Holders and their respective affiliated Permitted Transferees shall, and shall cause the Partnership (or its successor) to, reasonably cooperate with the Centerview Holders and take all actions and enter into all agreements or arrangements as may be reasonably required in connection therewith to ensure that the Common Series C Limited Partners, Common Series C-2 Limited Partners and the Common Series D Limited Partners remain entitled to economic benefits and profit participation that are substantially equivalent to those such Common Series C Limited Partners, Common Series C-2 Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners had in respect of the Common Series C Units, Common Series C-2 Units or the Common Series D Units, as applicable, immediately prior to such Dissolution Transaction as set forth in this Agreement and any agreements contemplated hereby.

42

(b) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of any Partnership Sale which is a purchase of Equity Interests of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries (whether by merger, share exchange or other similar transaction) in which the consideration is not entirely cash (a “Stock Consideration Sale”), the provisions set forth on Schedule 4.6 will apply.

(c) The Partnership, the LGP Holders, the CVC Holders, the Daymon Holders and their respective affiliated Permitted Transferees, on the one hand, and the Common Series C Limited Partners, Common Series C-2 Limited Partners and the Common Series D Limited Partners, if and as applicable, on the other hand, shall cooperate in good faith to cause the tax treatment for the Common Series C Limited Partners, Common Series C-2 Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners, if and as applicable, in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Section 4.6 to be substantially similar to the tax treatment thereof prior to such Dissolution Transaction, to the extent reasonably practicable, it being understood that the LGP Holders, the CVC Holders, the Daymon Holders and their respective affiliated Permitted Transferees shall have no obligation to compensate the Common Series C Limited Partners, Common Series C-2 Limited Partners or the Common Series D Limited Partners for any difference in the actual tax treatment obtained as a result of such cooperation from the tax treatment that would have been obtained if such Dissolution Transaction had not occurred.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, from and after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by Section 11.1(b) below, none of the provisions of this Section 4.6 shall apply to or with respect to any Common Series C Limited Partner (or former Common Series C Limited Partner) nor to any Common Series C-2 Limited Partner (or former Common Series C-2 Limited Partner), nor to or with respect to any Common Series C Unit or Common Series C-2 Unit (nor to any Equity Securities distributed in respect thereof).

ARTICLE V

ALLOCATIONS

5.1 Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in, and after giving effect to, Section 5.2, Net Income and Net Loss (and, if necessary, individual items of Income and Loss) shall be allocated annually (and at such other times as the General Partner determines) to the Limited Partners in such manner that the positive Capital Account balance of each Limited Partner shall, to the greatest extent possible, be equal to the amount that would be distributed to such Limited Partner (after satisfaction of any financial obligations of each Limited Partner to the Partnership under any provisions of this Agreement), if (a) the Partnership were to sell the assets of the Partnership in a Partnership Sale (treated as a Vesting Exit Event for Common Series C Units to the extent the internal rate of return requirement is deemed satisfied) for their Gross Asset Values, (b) all Partnership liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Values of the assets securing such liability), (c) the Partnership were to distribute the remaining proceeds of sale pursuant to Article IV or liquidation pursuant to Section 10.2 and (d) the Partnership were to dissolve pursuant to Article X. In determining the hypothetical distribution pursuant to the preceding sentence, amounts shall be treated as distributable pursuant to Article IV only for purposes of allocating Net Income or items thereof attributable to a Vesting Exit Event for Common Series C Units; provided, however, that, for any taxable year in which or

43

after which the Partnership has realized a substantial amount of proceeds other than from a Vesting Exit Event for Common Series C Units, the General Partner may treat Net Income or items thereof as being attributable to a Vesting Exit Event for Common Series C Units for purposes of this sentence if it determines in its sole discretion that such treatment is necessary in order for the allocations pursuant to this Section 5.1 to comply with the requirements of Section 704 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder or to give economic effect to Article IV and the other economic provisions of this Agreement.

5.2 Special Allocations.

(a) Loss attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated in the manner required by Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If there is a net decrease during a taxable year in Partner Minimum Gain, Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) shall be allocated to the Limited Partners in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 5.2(a) is intended to be a “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(a), if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Limited Partner shall be allocated Income for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent taxable years) in the amounts and of such character as is determined according to Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.2(b) is intended to be a “minimum gain chargeback” provision that complies with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(c) If any Limited Partner that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any taxable year, computed after the application of Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(b) but before the application of any other provision of Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, then Income for such taxable year shall be allocated to such Limited Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as possible. This Section 5.2(c) is intended to be a “qualified income offset” provision as described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(d) Income and Loss described in clause (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

(e) The allocations set forth in Section 5.2(a) through Section 5.2(d) inclusive (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2 of the Regulations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Limited Partners intend to allocate Income and Loss of the Partnership or to make Distributions. Accordingly, notwithstanding the other provisions of Sections 5.1 and 5.2, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, items of Income and Loss of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Limited Partners so as to eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations

44

and thereby cause the respective Capital Account balances of the Limited Partners to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if Income and Loss had been allocated without reference to the Regulatory Allocations. In general, the Limited Partners anticipate that this shall be accomplished by specially allocating other Income and Loss among the Limited Partners so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of Regulatory Allocations and such special allocations to each such Limited Partner is zero.

5.3 Tax Allocations.

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

(b) Items of Partnership taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Limited Partners in accordance with Code Section 704(c) so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Partnership for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value. The Partnership shall use the “traditional method” described in Regulation Section 1.704-3(b) with respect to any variation (i) between the adjusted basis of the equity of Daymon Eagle Holdings L.P. contributed to the Partnership on December 18, 2017, and its Gross Asset Value and (ii) the adjusted bases of the property held by the Partnership and its Gross Asset Value, in each case, immediately prior to the contribution of Daymon Eagle Holdings L.P. on December 18, 2017. Without the consent of the CVC Investors, the LGP Investors and the Majority Daymon Holder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the General Partner shall not select, or change, any method of making such allocations under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder.

(c) If the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).

(d) Tax credits, tax credit recapture and any items related thereto shall be allocated to the Limited Partners according to their interests in such items as reasonably determined by the General Partner taking into account the principles of Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(4)(ii).

(e) Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 are solely for the purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Limited Partner’s Capital Account or share of Income, Loss, Distributions or other Partnership items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

45

5.4 Limited Partners’ Tax Reporting.

(a) The Limited Partners acknowledge and are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made pursuant to this Article V and, except as may otherwise be required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article V in reporting their shares of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal, state and local income tax purposes.

(b) The General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to (subject to reasonable delays in the event of the late receipt of any necessary financial or tax information of or in respect of any entity in which the Partnership directly or indirectly holds any interest) transmit to each Partner, within ninety (90) days after the close of each Fiscal Year, such Partner’s Schedule K-1 (Internal Revenue Service Form 1065) or an equivalent report indicating such Partner’s share of all items of income or gain, expense, loss or other deduction and tax credit of the Partnership for such year, as well as the status of its Capital Account as of the end of such year, and such additional information as such Partner reasonably may request to enable it to complete its tax returns or to fulfill any other reporting requirements.

5.5 Withholding, Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Limited Partner. The Partnership may withhold and remit to a Governmental Entity any taxes with respect to any Limited Partner, and any such taxes may be withheld from any distribution otherwise payable to such Limited Partner, provided that, in the event any such withholding is made, the General Partner shall provide notice to the Limited Partner with respect to which such withholding was made and shall reasonably cooperate with such Limited Partner in recovering any such tax withheld or otherwise allowing such Limited Partner to claim a credit for any such tax withheld, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law. Taxes withheld on amounts directly or indirectly payable to the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries that is treated as a pass-through entity and taxes otherwise paid by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries that is treated as a pass-through entity shall, in general, be treated for purposes of this Agreement as distributed to the appropriate Partners and paid by the appropriate Partners to the relevant Governmental Entity. If the Partnership is required by applicable law to make any payment to a Governmental Entity that is specifically attributable to a Limited Partner or a Limited Partner’s status as such (including federal withholding taxes, state or local personal property taxes and state or local unincorporated business taxes), then such Limited Partner shall indemnify the Partnership in full for the entire amount paid (including interest, penalties and related expenses). No such indemnification will be considered a Capital Contribution for purposes of this Agreement. The General Partner may offset Distributions to which a Person is otherwise entitled under this Agreement against such Person’s obligation to indemnify the Partnership under this Section 5.5. A Limited Partner’s obligation to indemnify the Partnership under this Section 5.5 shall survive termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Partnership, and for purposes of this Section 5.5, the Partnership shall be treated as continuing in existence. The Partnership may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Limited Partner under this Section 5.5, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such indemnification, with interest calculated at a rate equal to 5 percentage points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by applicable law).

ARTICLE VI

RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF PARTNERS

6.1 Power and Authority of Partners. Unless delegated such power in accordance with Section 7.2 or Section 7.4, no Partner shall, in its capacity as such, have the authority or power to act for or on behalf of the Partnership in any manner, to do any act that would be (or could be construed as) binding on the Partnership, or to make any expenditures on behalf of the Partnership, and the Partners hereby consent to the exercise by the General Partner of the powers and rights conferred on it by applicable law and by this Agreement.

6.2 Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.2, as specifically set forth in this Agreement or as otherwise required by applicable law, Partners holding Common Series A Units shall vote together as a single class, and a Common Series A Limited Partner shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Common Series A Unit held by such Common Series A Limited Partner on all matters to be voted upon by the Limited Partners, and the Common Series B Units, Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units and Common Series C-2 Units shall have no voting power and no right to vote upon or approve any matter to be voted upon or approved by the Partners of the Partnership. Further, subject to the terms hereof, including ARTICLE VII, until (i) the time that the CVC Group is no longer entitled, pursuant to Section 7.3, to designate and cause to be elected two (2) members of the Board of Directors, the Partners and the Partnership agree that all actions of the Partnership requiring the vote or approval of the Partners shall require the approval of the Majority CVC Holders and (ii) the time that the LGP Group is no longer entitled, pursuant to Section 7.3, to designate and cause to be elected two (2) members of the Board of Directors, the Partners and the Partnership agree that all actions of the Partnership requiring the vote or approval of the Partners shall require the approval of the Majority LGP Holders.

6.3 Liability of Limited Partners.

(a) No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise required by the Delaware Act or as expressly set forth in this Agreement (including in Section 6.3(b) and 10.3), no Limited Partner shall have any personal liability whatsoever in such Limited Partner’s capacity as a Limited Partner, whether to the Partnership, to any of the other Partners, to the creditors of the Partnership or to any other Third Party for the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Partnership, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise (including those arising as a Limited Partner or an equityholder, an owner or a shareholder of another Person). Each Limited Partner shall be liable only to make such Limited Partner’s Capital Contribution to the Partnership, if applicable, and any other payments provided for expressly herein.

(b) Return of Distributions. Under the Delaware Act, a Limited Partner may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Limited Partner. It is the intent of the Limited Partners that no Distribution to any Limited Partner pursuant to Article IV or Article X shall be deemed to constitute money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Delaware Act, and the Limited Partner receiving such Distribution shall not be required to return to any Person any such money or property, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or the Delaware Act. If, however, it is required pursuant to the Delaware Act or any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any

47

Limited Partner is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Limited Partner and not of the other Limited Partners.

6.4 Performance of Duties; Conflicts of Interest.

(a) In performing its, his or her duties, each of the Partners shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the provisions of this Agreement and on information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries), of the following other Persons or groups: (i) one or more officers or employees of such Partner or the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) any attorney, independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by such Partner or the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of such Partner or the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence.

(b) On any matter involving a conflict of interest not provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each Partner shall be guided by its reasonable judgment as to the best interests of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and shall take such actions as are determined by such Person in good faith to be necessary or appropriate to ameliorate such conflict of interest.

6.5 Investment Representations of Limited Partners. Each Limited Partner hereby represents, warrants and acknowledges to the Partnership that: (a) such Limited Partner has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Partnership and is making an informed investment decision with respect thereto; (b) such Limited Partner is acquiring interests in the Partnership for investment only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution to the public or public offering thereof; and (c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by such Limited Partner.

(b) Upon request, for so long as each of the CVC Investors and the LGP Investors own any Common Series A Units, such Partner and any representatives of such partner shall have (i) reasonable access (at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice) to all executive officers and accountants of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and (ii) reasonable access (at

7.15 No Liability to Partnership or Limited Partners. The General Partner shall be subject to all of the liabilities of a general partner specified in this Agreement and the Delaware Act; provided, that to the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the General Partner nor any of the General Partner’s direct or indirect owners, managers, members, partners, directors, officers,

55

employees, agents or any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any Limited Partner or the Partnership for (a) any action taken or failure to act as General Partner, or on behalf of the General Partner, with respect to the Partnership unless such action taken or failure to act is a willful violation of a material law or willful violation of the material provisions of this Agreement and/or is fraudulent, grossly negligent or willfully malfeasant, (b) any action or inaction arising from reliance made in good faith upon the opinion or advice as to legal matters of legal counsel or as to accounting matters of accountants selected by any of them with reasonable care, in the absence of fraud or willful misconduct, or (c) the action or inaction of any agent, contractor or consultant selected and monitored by any of them with reasonable care, in the absence of fraud or willful misconduct.

7.16 Delegation of Authority. Subject to compliance by the General Partner with any provision of this Agreement or the General Partner’s governing documents, the General Partner may, from time to time, delegate to any Person such authority and powers to act on behalf of the Partnership as it shall deem advisable in its discretion; provided that no such delegation shall conflict with the delegation to the Board of Directors contemplated by Section 7.2. Subject to any rights of a Partner pursuant to this Agreement (including Section 7.3), any delegation pursuant to this Section 7.16 may be revoked at any time and for any reason or no reason by the General Partner.

7.17 Performance of Duties; Liability of Directors and Officers; Opportunities.

(a) In performing its, his or her duties, the General Partner and each director shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the provisions of this Agreement and on information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Limited Partners might properly be made), of the following other Persons or groups: (i) one or more officers or employees of any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries, (ii) any attorney, independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence.

(b) No individual who is a director, an officer, employee, member or direct or indirect owner of the General Partner, or any combination of the foregoing, shall be personally liable under any judgment of a court, or in any other manner, for any debt, obligation or liability of the Partnership, whether that liability or obligation arises in contract, tort or otherwise solely by reason of being a director, an officer, employee, member or direct or indirect owner of the General Partner or any combination of the foregoing.

(c) No director, officer, employee, member or direct or indirect owner of the General Partner shall be liable to the Partnership or any Partner for any act or omission taken or omitted to be taken in their capacity as a director, officer, employee, member or direct or indirect owner of the General Partner, including any mistake of fact or error in judgment taken, suffered or made by such Person in good faith and with the belief that such act or omission is in or is not contrary to the best interests of the Partnership and is within the scope of authority granted to such

56

Person, provided that such act or omission does not constitute fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence (as defined under Delaware law) in the conduct of such Person’s office or a willful breach of this Agreement or a willful breach of the Registration Rights Agreement. The immediately preceding sentence shall in no way limit or otherwise affect any claims, rights, remedies, or liabilities under or related to the Contribution Agreement or any document contemplated thereby. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that such provisions expand, restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities of any Person otherwise existing at law or in equity to the Partnership or the Partners, are agreed by the Partnership and the Partners to modify to that extent such duties and liabilities of such Person.

(d) Each Partner expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (i) each LGP Holder, each CVC Holder, each Juggernaut Holder, each Centerview Holder and each Daymon Holder has the right to, and shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) not to, directly or indirectly engage in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Partnership and its Subsidiaries, including those deemed to be competing with the Partnership and its Subsidiaries; and (ii) in the event that an LGP Holder, a CVC Holder, a Juggernaut Holder, a Centerview Holder, a Daymon Holder or their respective Affiliates or Directors appointed by them acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or any other Partner, such LGP Holder, Juggernaut Holder, CVC Holder, Centerview Holder, Daymon Holder or their respective Affiliates or Directors shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or any Partner, as the case may be, and shall not be liable to the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or any Partner or any of their respective Affiliates for breach of any duty by reason of the fact that such LGP Holder, CVC Holder, Juggernaut Holder, Centerview Holder, Daymon Holder or their respective Affiliates or Directors, directly or indirectly, pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another Person, or does not present such opportunity to the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or any Partner.

7.18 Indemnification.

(a) Third Party Actions. The Partnership shall indemnify each Partner, each officer, director and employee of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and any other Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in or participates as a witness with respect to any Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an Action by or in the right of the Partnership), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a Person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director, an officer or an employee of the Partnership, or is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a manager, director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another partnership or of a corporation, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (each a “Proceeding”), against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding if (i) such Person acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership, (ii) any of such Person’s actions does not constitute fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence (as defined under Delaware law) or a breach of such Person’s duty of loyalty and (iii) with respect to any criminal Proceeding, such Person had no reasonable cause to believe such Person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a

57

presumption that the Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership, or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding that the Person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

(b) Actions by the Partnership. The Partnership shall indemnify any Partner, each officer, director and employee of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries and any other Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed Action by or in the right of the Partnership to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such Person, or a Person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director, an officer or an employee of the Partnership or its Subsidiaries, or is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a manager or director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another limited liability company or of a corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with the defense or settlement of such Action if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Partnership unless and only to the extent that the Court of the Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such Action was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(c) Rights Non-Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section 7.18 shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of this Agreement, any other agreement or otherwise.

(d) Insurance. Unless otherwise determined by the General Partner, the Partnership shall maintain insurance, at its expense, on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was at any time after the Original Effective Date a director, officer, or employee of the General Partner, or a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this Section 7.18.

(e) Priority.

(i) The Partnership and the Partners hereby agree that the obligation of the Partnership under this Section 7.18 (such obligations, the “Partnership Indemnification Obligations”) to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person for the matters covered hereby shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement of such Person in connection therewith and any obligation on the part of a Partner or any of its Affiliates (an “Upstream Indemnifying Party”) with respect thereto (such obligation, a “Partner Indemnification Agreement”) shall be secondary to the Partnership Indemnification Obligations. In the event that the Partnership fails to indemnify or advance expenses to any Person as required or contemplated by this Agreement (such amounts the “Unpaid

58

Indemnity Amounts”) and an Upstream Indemnifying Party makes any payment to such Person in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses under any Partner Indemnification Agreement on account of such Unpaid Indemnity Amounts, such Upstream Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of such Person under this Article VII or any similar arrangement or agreement for indemnification or advancement of expenses by the Partnership or the Partnership’s Subsidiaries (a “Partnership Indemnification Agreement”).

(ii) The Partnership hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its obligation to indemnify a Person under this Article VII or any Partnership Indemnification Agreement shall include any amounts expended by an Upstream Indemnifying Party under any Partner Indemnification Agreement in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Person in connection with a Proceeding involving his or her service as a director, officer and employee of the Partnership, or director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries.

(iii) The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in this Article VII shall not be exclusive of any other right that a director, officer and employee of the Partnership, or director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory) or provision of this Agreement or otherwise.

(iv) The indemnification and other rights described in this Section 7.18 are for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Persons identified in this Section acting in the capacities described therein and not in any other capacity.

(f) Expenses. Expenses incurred by any Person described in Section 7.18(a) or 7.18(b) in defending a Proceeding shall be paid by the Partnership periodically upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Partnership. Such expenses incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the General Partner deems appropriate.

(g) Employees and Agents. Persons who are not covered by the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.18 and who are or were Partners, employees or agents of the Partnership, or who are or were serving at the request of the Partnership as employees or agents of another limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, may be indemnified to the extent authorized at any time or from time to time by the General Partner.

(h) Contract Rights. The provisions of this Section 7.18 shall be deemed to be a contract right between the Partnership and each Partner and each director, officer and employee of the Partnership, or director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries who serves in any such capacity at any time while this Section 7.18 and the relevant provisions of the Delaware Act or other applicable law are in effect, and any repeal or modification of this Section 7.18 or any such law shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or Proceeding then existing. The indemnification and other rights

59

provided for in this Section 7.18 shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any Person entitled to such indemnification. The Partnership shall indemnify any such Person seeking indemnification in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such Person only if such Proceeding was authorized by the General Partner. It is the express intention of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Article VII for the indemnification and exculpation of Persons covered thereunder (“Covered Persons”) may be relied upon by such Covered Persons and may be enforced by such Covered Persons (or by the General Partner on behalf of any such Covered Person; provided that the General Partner shall not have any obligation to so act for or on behalf of any such Covered Person) against the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement or to a separate indemnification agreement, as if such Covered Persons were parties hereto.

(i) Merger or Consolidation; Other Enterprises. For purposes of this Section 7.18, references to “the Partnership” shall include, in addition to the resulting company, any constituent company (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its managers, directors, officers, employees or agents, so that any Person who is or was a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent company, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Section 7.18 with respect to the resulting or surviving company as he or she would have with respect to such constituent company if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Section 7.18, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a Person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Partnership��� shall include any service as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership that imposes duties on, or involves services by, such manager, director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a Person who acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership” as referred to in this Section 7.18.

(j) No Partner Recourse. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any indemnity by the Partnership relating to the matters covered in this Section 7.18 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only and no Partner (unless such Partner otherwise agrees in writing or is found in a final decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have personal liability on account thereof) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity of the Partnership.

7.19 Affiliate Transactions. The Partnership shall conduct, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to conduct, all transactions with its Affiliates (other than Subsidiaries of the Partnership), current or former officers or directors, or any members of their respective immediate families on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to the Partnership or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate, current or former officer or director, or member of their respective immediate families, and in compliance with all applicable laws. The Partners hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the management services agreement between the Partnership and/or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand and Affiliates of the CVC Group, LGP Group and the Juggernaut Group, on the other

60

hand, dated as of the Original Effective Date (the “Management Services Agreement”), and (ii) the management agreement between Daymon Eagle Holdings L.P. and certain of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Affiliates of the Daymon Group, on the other hand, dated as of March 7, 2017, (the “Daymon Management Agreement” and collectively with the Management Services Agreement, the “Management Agreements”), in each case will be terminated as of the closing of the Merger. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the prior written consent of the Majority Daymon Holder, the Partnership shall not (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to) (a) enter into any transaction, agreement, contract or arrangement with any CVC Holder, any member of the CVC Group, any LGP Holder or any member of the LGP Group; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to or restrict (x) issuances of Equity Securities or debt securities with respect to which the Partners have participation rights pursuant to Section 9.7 or the taking or any other action, or entering into of any other arrangement, in each case that is expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, or (y) any commercial transactions between the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any portfolio company of any member of the CVC Group or any member of the LGP Group, on the other hand, in the ordinary course of business that is on an arms-length basis or (b) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, pay any management, transaction, advisory or similar fees to any CVC Holder, any member of the CVC Group, any LGP Holder or any member of the LGP Group, other than with respect to indemnification or expense reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement.

7.20 Protective Provisions.

(a) The Board of Directors shall consult with members of the Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ senior management with respect to material acquisition transactions. If the Initial Management Partners hold Common Series B Units representing at least 25% of the Common Series B Units held by them as of the Original Effective Date, each of the following actions, if proposed to be taken by the Board of Directors will, unless otherwise required by law, require the affirmative vote of one Management Director:

(i) Any amendment, which adversely affects the Management Partners in a manner that is disproportionate as compared to the LGP Holders or CVC Holders, to (A) this Agreement, (B) any other governing documents of the Partnership or its Subsidiaries or (C) that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 14, 2014, by and among AGS Topco Holdings L.P., AGS Hold Co. and KARMAN BUYER CORP.

(ii) Any amendment or modification to any agreement pursuant to which a Person receives a Common Series B Units, in each case, in the form of such agreements as of the Original Effective Date, which adversely affects the rights and obligations of the holders of Common Series B Units in a manner that is disproportionate as compared to its effect on the rights of the holders of Common Series A Units.

(iii) Entry into any transaction with LGP Group or CVC Group or any of their Affiliates, other than commercial arrangements entered into the ordinary course of business on an arm’s length basis, the indemnification obligations expressly contemplated by Section 7.18 and the management agreement contemplated by Section 7.19.

(b) Reserved.

61

7.21 No UBTI; Effectively Connected Income or Commercial Activity. Without the prior written consent of the CVC Holders, LGP Holders, and the Daymon Holders, the Partnership shall not engage in any transactions or other activities, either directly or through one or more Persons in which the Partnership invests, that would cause (or create any significant risk of causing) any Partner or any of their direct or indirect limited partners (a) to recognize unrelated business taxable income as defined in Code Sections 512 and 514, (b) to recognize income that is effectively connected with a trade or business within the United States, as defined in Code Section 864(b), or to be treated as engaged in a trade or business within the United States, or (c) to be treated as engaged in “commercial activity” as defined in Code Section 892(a)(2)(i).

ARTICLE VIII

TAX MATTERS

8.1 Designation of Tax Matters Partner. The General Partner shall be the “Tax Matters Partner” of the Partnership within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(7) (as in effect prior to the repeal of such section and other related sections pursuant to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015) and the “Partnership Representative” of the Partnership for purposes of Section 6223 of the Code, subject to Section 8.7, shall have all the rights, duties, powers and obligations provided for in the Code and the Regulations thereunder. All references in Sections 8.2 through 8.5 of this Agreement to the “Tax Matters Partner” shall include the “Partnership Representative”, as the case may be.

8.2 Preparation of Tax Returns. The Tax Matters Partner shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns required to be filed by the Partnership. Each Partner will upon request supply to the Tax Matters Partner all pertinent information in its possession relating to the operations of the Partnership necessary to enable the Partnership’s returns to be prepared and filed. Each Partner agrees that it shall take no position on its tax returns inconsistent with the positions taken on the Partnership’s tax returns.

8.3 Tax Elections. Subject to Section 8.7, the Tax Matters Partner shall determine, in its reasonable discretion, whether to make or revoke any available tax election pursuant to the Code or otherwise available with respect to the Partnership; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Tax Matters Partner shall timely make an election under Code Section 754 for the taxable year that includes the Original Effective Date and (ii) the Tax Matters Partner shall not make or revoke any material tax election of the Partnership (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any (A) change in tax accounting principles or methods, (B) change in tax accounting periods, (C) election of a method pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code or the regulations thereunder, or (D) change to the allocation of income, gains, losses or deductions (or items thereof) for book or tax purposes) which materially and disproportionately adversely affects a CVC Holder, LGP Holder, or Daymon Holder relative to other holders of Common Series A Units without the prior written consent of such holder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed). Each Partner will, upon request, execute any forms or documents and supply any information necessary to give proper effect to any Partnership tax election.

8.4 Tax Controversies. The Tax Matters Partner is authorized and required to represent the Partnership (at the Partnership’s expense) in connection with all examinations of the Partnership’s affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings,

62

and to expend Partnership funds for professional services reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Neither the Partnership nor the Tax Matters Partner shall elect the application of the Partnership Audit Rules prior to the effective date thereof. With respect to any examination pursuant to the Partnership Audit Rules, the Tax Matters Partner shall determine (A) whether or not the Partnership should make the election under Code Section 6221(b) with respect to determinations of adjustments at the Partnership level and (B) if the election described in clause (A) is not made or is not available, to the extent applicable, whether or not the Partnership should make the election under Code Section 6226(a) with respect to the alternative method described therein, and, in each such case if such election is made, the Partnership and the Tax Matters Partner shall take any other action such as filings, disclosures and notifications necessary to effectuate such election. To the extent that the Tax Matters Partner does not elect the alternative method under Section 6226 of the Code, and the relevant audit adjustment is material as to the Partnership (determined in the Tax Matters Partner’s reasonable discretion), the Tax Matters Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) make any modifications available under Code Section 6225(c)(3), (4) and (5), together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions, to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the Tax Matters Partner has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Partnership) and would reduce any taxes payable by the Partnership with respect to the audit adjustment, and (ii) if requested by a Partner, provide to such Partner information allowing such Partner to file an amended U.S. federal income tax return, as described in Code Section 6225(c)(2), together with any guidance issued thereunder or successor provisions, to the extent that such amended return and payment of any related U.S. federal income taxes would reduce any taxes payable by the Partnership with respect to the audit adjustment (after taking into account adjustments described in subparagraph (i)). Similar procedures shall be followed in connection with any state or local income tax audit governed by the Partnership Audit Rules. Each Partner agrees to cooperate reasonably with the Partnership and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Partnership with respect to the conduct of such proceedings. The Tax Matters Partner shall (i) provide the Partners with notice of the commencement of any material examinations, audits or other proceedings and (ii) shall not settle, compromise or abandon such proceedings without the prior written consent of the CVC Investors, the LGP Investors, and the Majority Daymon Holder if such settlement, compromise or abandonment materially and disproportionately adversely affects the CVC Investors, LGP Investors or the Daymon Holders relative to other holders of Common Series A Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 8.4 shall be subject to the rights and obligations of BC Eagle Holdings, L.P. under Section 8.10(c) of the Contribution Agreement, provided that this sentence shall not (a) alter the identity of the Person who is the Tax Matters Partner or Partnership Representative, as the case may be, or (b) alter the rights and obligations of the Partnership Representative under the Partnership Audit Rules (or similar provisions of state, local or foreign law).

8.5 Tax Allocations. Subject to Section 8.7, all matters concerning the computation of Capital Accounts, the allocation of Net Income (or items thereof) and Net Loss (or items thereof) for Capital Account purposes, the allocation of items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and expense for tax purposes and the adoption of any accounting methods or procedures not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Tax Matters Partner in its reasonable discretion provided that the Tax Matters Partner shall not make any such determination which materially and disproportionately adversely affects a CVC Holder, LGP

63

Holder, or Daymon Holder relative to other holders of Common Series A Units without the prior written consent of such holder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed). Without in any way limiting the scope of the foregoing but subject to Section 8.7, if and to the extent that, for any tax purposes, any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense of any Partner or the Partnership is constructively attributed to, respectively, the Partnership or any Partner, or any contribution to or distribution by the Partnership or any payment by any Partner or the Partnership is recharacterized, the Tax Matters Partner may, in its reasonable discretion, specially allocate items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and expense and/or make correlative adjustments to the Capital Accounts of the Partners in a manner so that the net amount of income, gain, loss, deduction and expense realized by each relevant party (after taking into account such special allocations) and the net Capital Account balances of the Partners (after taking into account such special allocations and adjustments) shall, as nearly as possible, be equal, respectively, to the amount of income, gain, loss, deduction and expense that would have been realized by each relevant party and the Capital Account balances of the Partners that would have existed if such attribution and/or recharacterization and the application of this sentence of this Section 8.5 had not occurred. Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the Tax Matters Partner shall determine, in its reasonable discretion, that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to effectuate the Economic Interests of the Partners, the General Partner may make such modification, provided that the Tax Matters Partner shall not make any such modification which materially and disproportionately adversely affects a CVC Holder, LGP Holder, or Daymon Holder relative to other holders of Common Series A Units without the prior written consent of such holder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

8.6 Fiscal Year; Taxable Year. Each of the Fiscal Year and the taxable year of the Partnership shall end on December 31 of each calendar year unless, subject to Section 8.7, the General Partner shall determine otherwise in compliance with applicable laws.

8.7 Ordinary Income Offset. If any Partner is treated for income tax purposes as realizing ordinary income because of receipt of its Partnership interest (whether under Section 83 of the Code or any similar provisions of any law, rule or regulation or any other applicable law, rule, regulation or doctrine) and the Partnership is entitled to any offsetting deduction, the Partnership’s deduction shall be allocated among the Partners in such manner as to, as nearly as possible, offset such ordinary income realized by such Partner.

ARTICLE IX

No Transfer or attempt to Transfer any Units in violation of the preceding sentence shall be effective or valid for any purpose. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no Transfer of Units shall be effective or valid hereunder if such Transfer constitutes a Prohibited Transfer. In addition,

No Transfer shall be effective or valid under this Section 9.1(b) (other than a Transfer pursuant to clauses (B), (C) (other than with respect to Section 9.3 to the extent provided on Schedule 9.3(c)(ii)), or (E) above) unless the transferee is at such time a party to this Agreement or has previously executed and delivered to the Partnership a joinder in accordance with Section 9.8.

9.2 Call by the Partnership.

(a) Except as set forth in a Daymon Unit Grant Agreement, if the employment of a Management Partner by the Partnership and all of its Subsidiaries shall terminate for any reason (any such termination a “Call Event”), then, subject to the terms of this Section 9.2, the Partnership shall have the right to purchase, and if the Partnership does not exercise such right during the thirty-day period following a Call Event, such rights shall be forfeited by the Partnership and the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group, solely at their respective election, in proportion to their relative ownership of Common Series A Units as compared to one another, shall have the right to purchase (the “Call Option”), by delivery of a written notice by the Partnership or the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group, as applicable (the “Call Notice”) to such terminated Management Partner no later than 75 days after the date of the Call Event (the “Call Period”), and such Management Partner and such Management Partner’s direct and indirect transferees (a “Call Group”) shall be required to sell on the date of such Call Event any portion or all of the Units that (A) were originally issued by the Partnership to such Management Partner, and (B) were owned by such Management Partner or his direct or indirect transferees on the date of the Call Event (such securities to be purchased hereunder being referred to collectively as the “Call Securities”), except as otherwise provided in Sections 9.2(b) or 9.2(c) hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Partners nor the Partnership (nor any of its Subsidiaries) shall have any call rights pursuant to this Section 9.2 with respect to any Equity Securities of the Public Company, including any such Equity Securities acquired by a Management Partner in connection with the exchange of Units hereunder.

(iii) In the event a Management Partner resigns without Good Reason from his employment with the Partnership and its Subsidiaries, the purchase price per Unit payable for the Common Series B Units owned by such Management Partner and his Call Group shall be the Fair Value of such Common Series B Units as of the date the Call Notice is sent to such Management Partner.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, this Section 9.2(b)(iv) shall not apply with respect to any exercise of any Call Option by any party which occurs after a Public Offering and which exercise relates to (x) any termination of a Management Partner’s employment by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries other than for Cause or (y) any resignation by such Management Partner from the Partnership and its Subsidiaries for Good Reason.

(ii) The purchase price per Unit payable upon exercise of a Call Option by a purchaser thereunder for Common Series C Units owned by such Management Partner shall be an amount equal to the Fair Value of such Common Series C Units as of the date the Call Notice is sent to such Management Partner. Except as described in Section

67

9.2(c)(iii) below, any purchase price payable for any Common Series C Unit pursuant to the exercise of a Call Option shall be payable in cash pursuant to Section 9.2(e)(i) below.

(iii) Subject to the terms of this Section 9.2(c)(iii), if the Call Option is exercised by the Partnership or the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and/or the Centerview Group pursuant to this Section 9.2, and such exercise occurs prior to an event described in clause (1) or (2) of this Section 9.2(c)(iii) (or at any time for Common Series C Units granted pursuant to the Daymon Unit Grant Agreements), then the Partnership or the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group, as the case may be, may pay the purchase price for any Common Series C Units by delivery of a subordinated promissory note, or in the case of a purchase by the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group, five separate subordinated promissory notes (to be treated as equity for federal income tax purposes), bearing interest at the rate then payable on three (3) year U.S. Treasury securities, such note to mature upon the earlier of (1) the sale (directly or indirectly, including pursuant to mergers, consolidations, reorganizations or similar transactions) in one or more transactions by one or more of the CVC Holders, LGP Holders, Juggernaut Holders and the Centerview Holders of an aggregate number of Common Series A Units representing at least a majority of the Common Series A Units collectively held by such Partners as of the Original Effective Date or (2) the occurrence of a Public Offering and one or more of the CVC Holders, LGP Holders, Juggernaut Holders and Centerview Holders selling, (in connection therewith or thereafter, directly or indirectly, including pursuant to mergers, consolidations, reorganizations or similar transactions), in the aggregate, in one or more transactions, a number of Common Series A Units at least equal to 30% of the Common Series A Units collectively held by such Partners as of the Original Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, this Section 9.2(c)(iii) shall not apply with respect to any exercise of any Call Option by any party which occurs after a Public Offering and which exercise relates to (x) any termination of a Management Partner’s employment by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries other than for Cause or (y) any resignation by such Management Partner for Good Reason.

(d) Common Series C-2 Units.

(i) In the event that a Management Partner’s employment by the Partnership and its Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason, the purchase price per Unit payable for the Common Series C-2 Units owned by such Management Partner as of the date of exercise of such Call Option shall be an amount equal to the Fair Value per Unit. Except as described in Section 9.2(d)(iii) below, any purchase price payable for any Common Series C-2 Unit pursuant to the exercise of a Call Option shall be payable in cash by the purchaser pursuant to Section 9.2(e).

68

(A) if such termination was by the Partnership and all of its Subsidiaries without Cause or by the Management Partner following the occurrence of an event which constitutes Good Reason with respect to such Management Partner, the Call Event shall not be deemed to occur any sooner than the second anniversary of such termination, (B) if such termination was by the Management Partner without Good Reason, or by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries for Cause, the Call Event shall not be deemed to occur any sooner than the date of such termination of employment, and (C) if such termination was by reason of death or Disability of the Management Partner, the Call Event shall not be deemed to occur any sooner than the second anniversary of such termination.

If any Common Series C-2 Units giving rise to such note are forfeited pursuant to Section 3.1(e), the note shall immediately be cancelled in respect of any of the amounts owing under such note that are attributable to such forfeited Common Series C-2 Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, this Section 9.2(d)(iii) shall not apply with respect to any exercise of any Call Option by any party which occurs after a Public Offering and which exercise relates to (x) any termination of a Management Partner’s employment by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries other than for Cause or (y) any resignation by such Management Partner for Good Reason.

At such closing, the members of the Call Group shall deliver, against payment for the Call Securities in accordance with the penultimate sentence of Section 9.2(e) hereof, to the Partnership certificates and/or other instruments representing, together with limited partnership interest or other appropriate powers duly endorsed with respect to, the Call Securities, free and clear of all claims, liens and encumbrances and, in the event that the Call Option was exercised by the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group the Partnership shall issue in the name of each of the members of the LGP Group, the CVC Group and the Juggernaut Group certificates representing the Call Securities in proportion to the relative ownership of Units of the members of the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group as compared to one another. All of the foregoing deliveries will be deemed to be made simultaneously and none shall be deemed completed until all have been completed.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 9.2 to the contrary, prior to the exercise by the Partnership of its Call Option to purchase Call Securities pursuant to this Section 9.2, one or more prospective or existing employees of the Partnership or any Subsidiary may be designated by the General Partner (a “Designated Employee”) who shall have the right, but not the obligation, to exercise the Call Option and to acquire, in lieu of the Partnership, some or all (as determined by the General Partner) of the Call Securities that the Partnership is entitled to purchase from the Call Group hereunder, and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 9.2(d) (provided, however, that in all events, and notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the purchase price payable by any such Designated Employee shall be payable by such Designated Employee in cash on the date of exercise of such Call Option). Concurrently with any such purchase of Call Securities by any such Designated Employee, if such Designated Employee is not at that time a Management Partner, such Designated Employee shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement whereupon such Designated Employee shall be deemed a “Management Partner” and shall have the same rights and be bound by the same obligations as the other Management Partners hereunder.

(iii) If neither the Partnership nor any Designated Employee nor the LGP Group, the CVC Group, the Daymon Group, the Juggernaut Group and the Centerview Group elects to exercise the Call Option and deliver a Call Notice within the Call Period, then the Call Option provided for in this Section 9.2 shall terminate, but the Management Partner and his Call Group shall continue to hold such Call Securities pursuant to all of the other provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 9.1, 9.5 and 9.7.

9.4 Tag Along Rights.

70

(a) In the event that the LGP Holders or the CVC Holders intend to Transfer to any Person (other than transfers to Permitted Transferees), in one or a series of related transactions (a “Tag-Along Sale”), any Units, the LGP Holders or the CVC Holders, as applicable (the “Tag-Along Offeror”), shall give not less than twenty (20) days prior written notice of such intended Transfer to the Partnership and to each other Common Series A Limited Partner, each Common Series B Limited Partner, each Common Series C Limited Partner, each Common Series D Limited Partner and each Common Series C-2 Limited Partner (collectively, the “Tag-Along Offerees”).

Within twenty (20) days following the delivery of the Tag-Along Notice by the Tag-Along Offeror to the Tag-Along Offerees and to the Partnership, each Tag-Along Offeree shall, by notice in writing to the Tag-Along Offeror and the Partnership, have the opportunity and right to sell to the purchaser (upon the same terms and conditions as Tag-Along Offeror, including with respect to representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities (each of which would be made severally by each such Tag-Along Offeree, based on such Tag-Along Offeree’s pro rata share of the aggregate consideration to be paid by the purchaser); provided, that no Limited Partner shall be required to make representations other than with respect to the ownership, non-contravention, enforceability and authorization with respect to itself) the same percentage of Common Series A Units, Common Series B Units, Vested Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units and Vested Common Series C-2 Units, as applicable, held by such Tag-Along Offeree as such Transfer represents with respect to the Units proposed to be sold by the Tag-Along Offeror. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Tag-Along Offeree shall be required to agree to be bound by any restrictive covenants (other than customary confidentiality covenants) in connection with a Tag-Along Sale, and the indemnification obligations of any Tag-Along Offeree shall not exceed the proceeds received by the Tag-Along Offeree in such Tag-Along Sale. The Tag-Along Offeror and/or each Tag-Along Offerees shall Transfer to the purchaser all of the Units proposed to be sold by them at not less than the price (subject, to the last sentence of this Section 9.4(a)) and upon other terms and conditions, if any, not more favorable to the purchaser than those originally offered. The Tag-Along Offeror shall not Transfer any Units to such purchaser if such purchaser declines to permit the participating Tag-Along Offerees to participate pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.4. The consideration to be received by the Tag-Along Offerees in the Tag-Along Sale in respect of their Common Series A Units, Common Series B Units, Vested Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units and Vested Common Series C-2 Units shall be the same form of consideration and the same per Unit price as the price paid to Tag-Along Offeror for their Common Series A Units in the Tag-Along Sale. The portion of the consideration to be received by the Tag-Along Offerees that have elected to participate in the Tag-Along Sale shall be that amount equal to the amount that would have been distributed to such Tag-Along Offerees with respect to the Common Series B Units, Vested Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units and Vested Common Series C-2 Units (as applicable) being sold in such Tag-Along Sale had the Partnership made a Distribution to such Tag-Along Offerees pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in an amount equal to the aggregate amount being paid by the prospective transferee in such Tag-Along Sale, after giving effect to prior Distributions.

(b) At the closing of any proposed Transfer in respect of which a Tag-Along Notice has been delivered, the Tag-Along Offeror, together with all Tag-Along Offerees so

71

electing to sell Common Series A Units, Common Series B Units, Vested Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units and Vested Common Series C-2 Units pursuant to Section 9.4(a) shall deliver to the proposed transferee certificates and/or other instruments representing the Units to be sold, free and clear of all Liens, together with appropriate powers duly endorsed therefor, and shall receive in exchange therefor the consideration to be paid or delivered by the proposed transferee in respect of such Units as described in the Tag-Along Notice.

(c) The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not apply to (i) any Transfer pursuant to a Public Offering, or (ii) any Transfers pursuant to Section 9.2.

(a) Piggyback Exchanges.

(i) All Partners are Holders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, whether through the original execution of such agreement or through the execution of joinders to such agreement on or following the Original Effective Date. In the event that the Holders are entitled to register Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and this Agreement, then the rights, obligations and procedures set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement shall be applicable to the registration of such Registrable Shares.

(ii) Substantially concurrent with the delivery of notice by the Partnership (the “Piggyback Notice”) of a Holder’s right to include Registrable Shares in a Registration (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to Section 2.01(a), Section 2.01(b), Section 2.02(a), Section 2.02(g) or Section 2.02(h) of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Partnership (or the Public Company on behalf of the Partnership) shall deliver a notice to each Holder (including each Demand Holder, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) indicating the maximum number of Registrable Shares that such Holder would be entitled pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to elect to include in such Registration based on the number of Equity Securities of the Public Company that such Holder would receive if the Partnership made a liquidating distribution (pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) in an aggregate amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Partnership’s assets (after payment of all then existing debts and liabilities of the Partnership) (with any Equity Securities of the Public Company being valued for this purpose based on the Imputed Value thereof as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Piggyback Notice) (the “Piggyback Notice Time”). Following the time that each Holder is required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to deliver notice (a “Response Notice”) of its intention to request the inclusion of Registrable Shares in a Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a), Section 2.01(b), Section 2.02(a), Section 2.02(g) or Section 2.02(h) of the Registration Rights Agreement, and immediately prior to the consummation of the applicable Registration, the Partnership shall distribute the number of Equity Securities which each Holder is entitled to register pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding sentence

72

and the Registration Rights Agreement (including following the operation of Section 2.04 of the Registration Rights Agreement) (a “Piggyback Exchange”).

(iii) Subject to the immediately succeeding clause (iv), any Holder holding Common Series B Units, Common Series C Units or Common Series C-2 Units, may, in its Response Notice, elect to not register the Registrable Shares held by it in respect of such Common Series B Units, Common Series C Units or Common Series C-2 Units that would otherwise be eligible to be registered and instead elect to be distributed such Registrable Shares, in which case the Partnership shall distribute (and not cause to be registered) the Registrable Shares that such Holder would have been entitled to register in respect of such Common Series C Units or Common Series C-2 Units pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (ii) directly to such Holder, taking into account the operation of the provisions of Section 2.04 of the Registration Rights Agreement as if such Holder had elected to register such Registrable Shares.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, (A) no Holder that holds Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units or Common Series C-2 Units shall (in such capacity and with respect to such Units) be entitled to participate in any Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a), Section 2.01(b), Section 2.02(a), Section 2.01(g) or Section 2.02(h) of the Registration Rights Agreement or pursuant to this Agreement or receive any distributions pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (iii) or Section 9.6(b) until such time as the Common Series A Limited Partners have received aggregate Distributions and/or proceeds from the sale of Common Series A Units (including pursuant to this Section 9.06) in an amount equal to the amount that is equal to the aggregate Common Capital Amount of all such Common Series A Units, and, following such time, such Holders shall only be entitled to Distributions in accordance with the terms of any applicable Restricted Unit Agreement and such otherwise applicable terms of Article IV of this Agreement, and (B) any Distributions of Equity Securities of the Public Company in respect of Common Series C Units, Common Series D Units or Common Series C-2 Units pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or this Agreement shall be subject to the escrow provisions of Section 4.1.

(b) Exchanges.

(i) In the event that a Public Offering is consummated, then, if at any time prior to the forty-two (42) month anniversary of the consummation of such Public Offering, the Partnership proposes to make any direct or indirect, in-kind distribution of any Equity Securities of the Public Company directly or indirectly owned by the Partnership to any of the Common Series A Limited Partners, excluding any Piggyback Exchange (which shall be governed by the preceding clause (a)) and excluding any distributions contemplated by Schedule 9.6(b)(i) (each, an “Exchange,” and such Common Series A Limited Partner(s) the “Exchanging Partners”), the Partnership shall provide at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice (an “Exchange Notice”) of the same to the Common Series B Limited Partners, Common Series C Limited Partners and Common Series C-2 Limited Partners (collectively, the “Other Partners”). The Exchange Notice shall set forth (among other items): (1) the total number of Equity Securities of the Public Company proposed to be distributed to the Exchanging Partners, (2) the Imputed Value of

73

such Equity Securities (as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of such Exchange Notice), (3) the total value of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities as of such time (with the value of any Equity Securities of the Public Company directly or indirectly held by the Partnership as of such time being equal to the Imputed Value of such Equity Securities as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of such Exchange Notice), and (4) the Exchange Ratio (as of the time of such Exchange Notice).

(ii) Upon receipt of any Exchange Notice, each Other Partner shall have fifteen (15) days within which to provide written notice to the Partnership (an “Exchange Participation Notice”) setting forth such Other Partner’s election to participate in such Exchange, and also setting forth the portion of the Units held by such Other Partner which shall be included in such Exchange (such portion, with respect to any separate class of Units held by such Other Partner as of such time, not to exceed a portion of each such class equal to the Exchange Ratio, and referred to as the “Participating Other Units”). In consummation of any Exchange, the Partnership shall, in addition to the Equity Securities originally proposed by the Partnership to be distributed to the Exchanging Partners pursuant to such Exchange, also concurrently distribute to the Other Partners who have submitted Exchange Participation Notices such numbers of Equity Securities of the Public Company as have an aggregate value (based on the Imputed Value of such Equity Securities as set forth in the applicable Exchange Notice) equal to the aggregate value that would have been distributed with respect to the Participating Other Units of such Other Partners had the Partnership made a liquidating distribution (pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) as of the date of the applicable Exchange Notice in an aggregate amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities (as set forth in the related Exchange Notice).

(iii) Any Participating Other Units that consist of Common Series C Units or Common Series C-2 Units of any Other Partner which participate in any Exchange pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.6 shall consist only of Vested Units (or, in the case of Common Series C-2 Units, only after a Yield Test Event has occurred).

(c) Reduction in Units; Section 4.6. Upon the consummation of any Piggyback Exchange or Exchange pursuant to this Section 9.6, the number of Units held by the Exchanging Partner (or, in the case of a Piggyback Exchange, the applicable Holder) shall automatically be deemed reduced by a percentage equal to the Exchange Ratio, and such number of Units shall be deemed redeemed by the Partnership in exchange for the Equity Securities distributed pursuant to the Piggyback Exchange or Exchange pursuant to this Section 9.6. With respect to any Holder or Exchanging Partner that holds more than one class of Units, the Partnership shall reasonably determine the Units to be redeemed in order to give effect to this Section 9.6(c). Section 4.6 of the Agreement, if applicable by its terms, shall apply to any Piggyback Exchange or Exchange pursuant to this Section 9.6.

(d) Vesting Shares. The Partnership is acquiring in the Merger 5,000,000 shares of common stock of the Public Company that are subject to vesting conditions (the “Vesting Shares”) that restrict the ability of the Partnership or the Partners to Transfer such Vesting Shares until such time as such vesting conditions are met. To the extent that the Vesting Shares have not

74

met such vesting conditions as of the first time that there is an Exchange, Piggyback Exchange or Distribution pursuant to this Agreement, the Partnership will provide in any future Exchange, Piggyback Exchange or Distribution following the meeting of such vesting conditions that the ultimate economic benefit derived from the Vesting Shares (if they ultimately vest) is for the benefit of all Partners as of immediately following the consummation of the Merger (other than Partners that are holders of Common Series C Units or Common Series C-2 Units (and solely with respect to such Units) who are no longer employed at the time that such vesting conditions have been met or at the time of any Exchange, Piggyback Exchange or Distribution that occurs following the date on which such vesting condition is met) held by each such Partner as of immediately following the consummation of the Merger. For purposes of determining the Fair Market Value of the Partnership’s assets pursuant to this Agreement, the Vesting Shares shall be attributed no value prior to the vesting conditions for the Vesting Shares having been met.

(e) Tax Matters. The Partnership agrees that it shall not Transfer any of the Equity Securities of the Public Company in a manner which causes recognition of taxable gain for U.S. federal or applicable state and local tax purposes except where the Partnership, in connection therewith, makes cash distributions to each of the Partners at least equal to the amount of taxable gain recognized by the Partnership and allocated to such Partner in connection with such Transfer multiplied by the Assumed Tax Rate. In connection with any in-kind distributions of Equity Securities by the Partnership to any of the Partners pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Partnership agrees to utilize commercially reasonable efforts (including through specific identification of shares or otherwise) to undertake such in-kind distributions in a manner which, to the extent permitted by applicable law, minimizes any recognition of any taxable gains for U.S. federal tax purposes by the Partnership or any Partner in connection with such in-kind distribution (including pursuant to Section 704(c)(1)(B), Section 707(a) and/or Section 737 of the Code).

9.7 Preemptive Rights.

(a) Except in the case of Excluded Units, the Partnership shall not issue any Equity Securities (other than Common Series C Units and Common Series D Units) after the Original Effective Date (the “New Units”) unless the Partnership shall have permitted the Common Series A Limited Partners, Common Series B Limited Partners and the Common Series D Limited Partners to acquire such New Units (the “Preemptive Offer”) by delivery to the Common Series A Limited Partners, Common Series B Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners of written notice of such offer that describes in reasonable detail that the Partnership proposes to issue such New Units (“Offered Units”), the number or amount of the Offered Units proposed to be sold, the proposed purchase price therefore and any other terms and conditions of such offer. The Preemptive Offer shall by its terms remain open and irrevocable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date it is received from the Partnership (the “Preemptive Offer Period”).

(b) Each Common Series A Limited Partner, Common Series B Limited Partner and Common Series D Limited Partner shall have the option, exercisable at any time during the Preemptive Offer Period by delivering written notice to the Partnership, to subscribe for up to its Pro Rata Percentage of the Offered Units.

(c) The Partnership shall notify each participating Limited Partner within five (5) days following the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period of the number or amount of

75

Offered Units which such participating Limited Partner has subscribed to acquire in connection with such Preemptive Offer.

(d) If less than all of the Offered Units are subscribed for by the participating Common Series A Limited Partners and Common Series B Limited Partners in accordance with this Section 9.7, the Partnership shall offer the remainder of the Offered Units (the “Refused Units”) to the Limited Partners who have elected to participate in such Preemptive Offer by purchasing their full portion of the Offered Units (the “Participating Partners”). Any such offer to the Participating Partners shall by its terms remain open and irrevocable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date it is received from the Partnership. Each Participating Partner shall be permitted to commit to acquiring all of the Refused Units being reoffered pursuant to this Section 9.7(d) (and any over commitment shall be cut back pro rata on the basis of each such Participating Partner’s relative pro rata portion of the Refused Units, as calculated in accordance with Section 9.7(b)). In the event the Participating Partners do not repurchase all of the remaining Refused Units, then the Partnership may offer the remaining Refused Units to any other Persons upon the terms and conditions including price, which are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to such other Persons or less favorable to the Partnership than those set forth in the Preemptive Offer, so long as such the closing of such sales of the Refused Units occur within 180 days from the expiration of the Preemptive Offer Period.

(e) Upon the closing of the sale to such other Persons of any remaining Refused Units as set forth in Section 9.7(d), the participating Common Series A Limited Partners, Common Series B Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners shall acquire from the Partnership, and the Partnership shall sell to the participating Common Series A Limited Partners, Common Series B Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners, the Offered Units subscribed for by the participating Common Series A Limited Partners, Common Series B Limited Partners and Common Series D Limited Partners in accordance with this Section 9.7, at the same terms specified in the Preemptive Offer.

(f) No CVC Holder, member of the CVC Group, LGP Holder or member of the LGP Group shall acquire from the Partnership or any other Person any debt or debt securities of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, any rights, options or warrants to purchase any such debt or debt securities, or any securities of any type whatsoever which are, or may become, convertible or exchangeable into such debt or debt securities, unless such CVC Holder, member of the CVC Group, LGP Holder or member of the LGP Group offers the Daymon Holders, the Centerview Holders and the Juggernaut Holders the right to participate in such acquisition in a manner consistent with the “preemptive rights” with respect to Equity Securities as set forth in this Section 9.7, which provisions shall be applicable mutatis mutandis. For purposes of this Section 9.7(f), CVC Credit Partners Group Holding Foundation and its subsidiaries from time to time, and any funds managed and/or advised by the foregoing entities, shall in each case not constitute a member of the CVC Group.

(g) Each Partner agrees that, with respect to any debt or debt securities of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries acquired by it or its Affiliates, it will (and will cause its Affiliates to), to the extent not prohibited by the applicable credit agreement, indenture or other loan document pursuant to which such debt or debt securities were issued, vote its interest in such debt or debt securities for all purposes (including in connection with any restructuring or

76

insolvency proceeding) in the same manner and proportion as all other holders of such debt or debt securities that are unaffiliated with the Partnership or such Partner. CVC Credit Partners Group Holding Foundation and its subsidiaries from time to time, and any funds managed and/or advised by the foregoing entities, shall not be deemed to be members of or an “Affiliate” of any member of the CVC Group and Bain Capital Public Equity and Bain Capital Credit, LP shall not be deemed to be a member of or an “Affiliate” of any member of the Daymon Group and its Affiliates.

9.8 Substituted Partner. Each Person to whom any Unit is Transferred in accordance with the provisions of this Article IX (other than a Transfer in a Public Offering or after an initial Public Offering pursuant to Rule 144) shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a holder of such Units by execution of a joinder agreement in the form provided by the General Partner. Upon compliance with Section 9.8 and entry into such joinder, such Person shall become a Substituted Partner entitled to all the rights of a Partner with respect to such Unit, and the Schedule of Partners shall be amended to reflect the name, address and Units of such Substituted Partner and to eliminate the name and address of and other information relating to the Transferee with regard to the Transferred Units.

9.9 Effect of Transfer. Following a Transfer of any Unit that is permitted under this Article IX, the Transferee of such Unit shall be treated as having made all of the Capital Contributions in respect of, and received all of the Distributions received in respect of, such Unit, and shall receive allocations and Distributions under Article IV and Article X in respect of such Unit as if such Transferee were a Partner.

9.10 Additional Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, no Transfer of Units or any other interest in the Partnership may be made unless in the opinion of counsel (who may be counsel for the Partnership), reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the General Partner and counsel for the Partnership (which opinion requirement may be waived, in whole or in part, at the reasonable discretion of the General Partner), such Transfer would not (a) violate any federal securities laws or any state securities or “blue sky” laws (including any investor suitability standards) applicable to the Partnership or the interest to be Transferred, (b) cause the Partnership to be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Partnership Act of 1940, as amended, (c) cause the Partnership to have more than 100 partners (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h), including the look-through rule in Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)) or (d) cause the Partnership to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

9.11 Transfer Fees and Expenses. Other than any Transfer pursuant to Sections 9.3 or 9.7, the Transferor and Transferee of any Units or other interest in the Partnership shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the Partnership for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by or on behalf of the Partnership in connection with any Transfer or proposed Transfer, whether or not consummated.

9.12 Effective Date of Transfers. Any Transfer and any related admission of a Person as a Partner in compliance with this Article IX shall be deemed effective on such date that the Transferee or Successor in Interest complies with the requirements of this Agreement.

77

9.13 Effect of Death or Incapacity. Except as otherwise provided herein, the death or incapacity of a Partner shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership. In the event of such death or incapacity, the executor, administrator, guardian, trustee or other personal representative of the deceased or incapacitated Partner shall be deemed to be the assignee of such Partner’s interest and may, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 9.8, become a Substituted Partner.

9.14 General Partner Consent. The General Partner hereby consents to a Transfer of Units to any persons to whom a transfer of Units is expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

9.15 Structure of Public Offering; Partnership Sales. The General Partner shall cause any Public Offering or Partnership Sale which is structured as a sale of less than all of the assets of the Partnership to be consummated in a manner such that the items of income, gain, loss or deduction resulting from such Public Offering or Partnership Sale are allocated (taking into account any allocations required pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code or the regulations thereunder) to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law to the Partners to whom the proceeds are intended to be distributed.

ARTICLE X

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

10.1 Dissolution. The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Additional Partners or Substituted Partners. Subject to Section 4.6, the Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up upon the first of the following to occur:

(a) Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement, the consent of the General Partner; or

(b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership under Section 17-802 of the Delaware Act.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 10.1, the Partnership is intended to have perpetual existence. The death, retirement, resignation, Bankruptcy or dissolution of a Limited Partner shall not cause a dissolution of the Partnership, and the Partnership shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

10.2 Liquidation and Termination.

(a) On the dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall act as liquidator or (in its sole discretion) may appoint one or more representatives, Partners or other Persons as liquidator(s). The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Partnership and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Delaware Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Partnership expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Partnership with all of the power and authority of the General Partner. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows:

78

(i) the liquidators shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Partnership funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership (including all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidators may reasonably determine);

(ii) after payment or provision for payment of all of the Partnership’s liabilities has been made in accordance with Section 10.2(a)(i), all remaining assets of the Partnership shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 (taking into account, if applicable, the provisions of Section 4.4 and Section 4.6), after giving effect to all prior Distributions, and a final allocation of all items of Income, gain, Loss and expense shall be made in such a manner that, immediately before distribution of such remaining assets, the positive balance of the Capital Account of each Limited Partner shall, to the greatest extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would be distributed to such Limited Partner in accordance with Section 4.1 (after satisfaction of any financial obligations of each Limited Partner to the Partnership under any provisions of this Agreement); and

(iii) any non-cash assets will first be written up or down to their Fair Market Value, thus creating hypothetical gain or loss (if any), which hypothetical gain or loss shall be allocated to the Limited Partners’ Capital Accounts in accordance with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and other applicable provisions of the Code and this Agreement. In making such allocations, the liquidators shall allocate each type of asset (e.g., cash or cash equivalents, securities or other property) among the Limited Partners ratably based upon the aggregate amounts to be distributed with respect to the Units held by each such holder.

10.3 Complete Distribution. Subject to compliance with Section 4.6, the distribution to a Limited Partner in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to the Limited Partner of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Limited Partner of its interest in the Partnership and all the Partnership’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Limited Partners have consented within the meaning of the Delaware Act. If a Limited Partner returns funds to the Partnership pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or the Delaware Act and such funds exceed such Limited Partner’s pro rata share of all funds required to be returned to the Partnership (an “Over-Returning Limited Partner”), then the Partnership and the Over-Returning Limited Partner shall have a claim against each Limited Partner that has received and retained Distributions from the Partnership in excess of the amounts to which such Limited Partner is entitled pursuant to this Agreement or the Delaware Act (each, an “Over-Distributed Limited Partner,” with any excess retained thereby being such Limited Partner’s “Excess Retained Funds”) for the return to the Partnership, and the application thereby in settlement among all Over-Returning Limited Partners, of an amount equal to the Over-Distributed Limited Partner’s Excess Retained Funds. For the avoidance of doubt, the liability of each Over-Distributed Limited Partner with respect to any such claim shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the Excess Retained Funds of such Over-Distributed Limited Partner.

10.4 Cancellation of Certificate. On completion of the distribution of Partnership assets as provided herein, the Partnership is terminated (and the Partnership shall not be terminated prior to such time), and the General Partner (or such other Person or Persons as the Delaware Act may

79

require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to this Agreement that are or should be canceled and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership. The Partnership shall be deemed to continue in existence for all purposes of this Agreement until it is terminated pursuant to this Section 10.4.

10.5 Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 10.2 to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up.

10.6 Return of Capital. The liquidators shall not be personally liable for the return of Capital Contributions or any portion thereof to the Limited Partners (it being understood that any such return shall be made solely from Partnership assets).

10.7 HSR Act. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) is applicable to any Limited Partner by reason of the fact that any assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to such Limited Partner in connection with the dissolution of the Partnership, the dissolution of the Partnership shall not be consummated until such time as the applicable waiting periods (and extensions thereof) under the HSR Act have expired or otherwise been terminated with respect to each such Limited Partner.

10.8 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate with respect to any Limited Partner at the time at which such Limited Partner ceases to own any Units, except that such termination shall not affect (i) rights perfected or obligations incurred by such Limited Partner under this Agreement prior to such termination and (ii) rights or obligations expressly stated to survive such cessation of ownership of Units.

ARTICLE XI

CERTAIN AGREEMENTS

11.1 Public Offering; Exchanges.

(a) Public Offering. If, in connection with an initial Public Offering, the entity that will consummate the initial Public Offering is a Subsidiary, parent entity, or other affiliated entity that is not the Partnership (the “Public Vehicle”), then (x) the Partnership and the Partners will cause the Public Vehicle to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement and (y) the Partnership will enable (including by causing securities of the Public Vehicle to be, distributed, exchanged, or otherwise transferred to the Partners as necessary to enable the direct transfer thereof, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership shall elect the method of such distribution, exchange or other transfer) each Partner to exercise and obtain the full benefit of its rights under this Agreement and under the Registration Rights Agreement to register and dispose of the securities of the Public Vehicle in the same manner as if the Partnership had been the entity that consummated the initial Public Offering.

(b) Exchange. In the event that a Public Offering is consummated, then, upon the forty-two (42) month anniversary of the consummation of such Public Offering, the Common

80

Series B Limited Partners, Common Series C Limited Partners and Common Series C-2 Limited Partners will receive common stock of the Public Company (the “Public Security”) in exchange for the Common Series B Units, Common Series C Units and Common Series C-2 Units then held by such Persons, and, in connection therewith, the Common Series B Limited Partners, Common Series C Limited Partners and Common Series C-2 Limited Partners shall take, at the Partnership’s expense, all reasonable actions in connection with the consummation of such exchange as the General Partner so requests, including the maintenance of vesting, forfeiture and Transfer restrictions with respect to the Public Security issued with respect to Common Series B Units, Common Series C Units and Common Series C-2 Units that remain unvested at the consummation of such exchange. The Public Security to be issued to the Common Series B Limited Partners, Common Series C Limited Partners or Common Series C-2 Limited Partners in connection with such exchange shall be allocated to each Common Series B Limited Partner, Common Series C Limited Partner or Common Series C-2 Limited Partner based on the dollar amount that such Common Series B Limited Partner, Common Series C Limited Partner or Common Series C-2 Limited Partner would be entitled to receive had the Partnership sold all of its assets for an amount equal to the Fair Market Value thereof as of such time (with any Equity Securities of the Public Company being valued for this purpose based on the Imputed Value thereof as of such time), followed by a distribution of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 (after payment of all then existing debts and liabilities of the Partnership).

11.2 Books and Records. The Partnership (or its designee) shall keep (a) correct and complete books and records of account, and (b) minutes of the proceedings of meetings of the Partners. Any of the foregoing books, minutes or records may be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time.

11.3 Reserved.

12.7 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any dispute relating hereto shall be heard in the state or federal courts of the State of Delaware, and the parties agree to jurisdiction and venue therein.

12.10 Waiver.

12.13 Delivery by Facsimile or Email. This Agreement, the agreements referred to herein, and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or email with scan or facsimile attachment, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or email as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense.

12.14 Survival. Sections 5.4, 6.3, 7.18, 8.4, 12.14, 12.15 and 12.16 shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement or the dissolution of the Partnership.

12.15 Confidentiality.

(a) The Partnership shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, disclose any Partner’s name or identity as an investor in the Partnership in any press release or other public announcement or in any document or material filed with any Governmental Entity, without the prior written consent of such Partner, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such disclosure is otherwise required by applicable law or by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which case (except with respect to disclosure that is required in connection with the filing of federal, state and local tax returns) prior to making such disclosure the Partnership shall give written notice to such Partner describing in reasonable detail the proposed content of such disclosure and shall permit such Partner to review and comment upon the form and substance of such disclosure and allow such Partner to seek confidential treatment therefor.

(b) Each Partner expressly agrees to maintain, for so long as such Person is a Partner and for two (2) years thereafter, the confidentiality of, and not to disclose to any Person other than the Partnership (and any successor of the Partnership or any Person acquiring (whether by merger, consolidation, sale, exchange or otherwise) all or a material portion of the assets or Equity Securities of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries), another Partner or a Person

84

designated by the Partnership or any of their respective financial planners, accountants, attorneys or other advisors, any information relating to the business, financial structure, financial position or financial results, clients or affairs of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries that shall not be generally known to the public, except (i) as otherwise required by applicable law or by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which case (except with respect to disclosure that is required in connection with the filing of federal, state and local tax returns) prior to making such disclosure such Partner shall give written notice to the Partnership describing in reasonable detail the proposed content of such disclosure and shall permit the Partnership to review and comment upon the form and substance of such disclosure and allow the Partnership to seek confidential treatment therefor, and (ii) in the case of any Partner who is employed by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, in the ordinary course of his or her duties to the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that a Partner may report to its current or potential stockholders, limited partners, members, investors or other owners, as the case may be, regarding the general status of its investment in the Partnership, including customary financial and tax-related information.

12.16 Reimbursement of Expenses. The Partnership shall pay all fees and expenses incurred by the General Partner.
