CONVERSION OF EQUITY INTERESTS

Section 3.1 Effect on Equity Interests. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party to this Agreement or any holder of the capital stock of the Company, SpinCo or Merger Partner:

(a) Merger Partner Equity Interests.

(i) The Merger Partner Equity Interests issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into the right to receive, in the aggregate, a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of SpinCo Common Stock equal to the Base Merger Consideration and, if applicable, any Additional Merger Consideration, in each case rounded down to the nearest whole share and subject to adjustment, if applicable, determined in accordance with Section 3.1(c).

(ii) The Merger Partner Equity Interests issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, when converted in accordance with this Section 3.1, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i).

(b) SpinCo Common Stock. Each share of SpinCo Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

(i) If the percentage of outstanding shares of Qualified SpinCo Common Stock to be received in the Distribution by holders of Company Common Stock in respect of their Company Common Stock (the “Applicable Percentage”) would be less than 50.1% of all shares of SpinCo Common Stock outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Merger (determined without regard to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1(c)(i)) (the “Threshold Percentage”), then:

(A) first, the Company shall reduce the number of Retained Shares and increase the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be distributed to the Company’s stockholders in the Distribution until either (x) the Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to such increase in the shares of SpinCo Common Stock distributed to the Company’s stockholders in the Distribution) is equal to the Threshold Percentage or (y) the number of Retained Shares is reduced to zero (0); and

(B) solely if the Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to the reduction in the number of Retained Shares to zero (0) and the corresponding increase in the shares of SpinCo Common Stock distributed to the Company’s stockholders in the Distribution) would still be less than the Threshold Percentage, but decreasing the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be issued to Merger Partner Equityholder as Merger Consideration by a number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock having an aggregate value (based on the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value) that is less than or equal to the Merger Partner Equityholder Contribution Amount would cause the Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to such decrease in the Merger Consideration) to be equal to the Threshold Percentage, then (1) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be issued to Merger Partner Equityholder as Merger Consideration shall be decreased by no more than the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock having an aggregate value (based on the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value) that is equal to the Merger Partner Equityholder Contribution Amount and (2) the amount of the Merger Partner Equityholder Contribution Amount shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of (x) the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value multiplied by (y) the reduction pursuant to the foregoing clause (1) in the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be issued to the Merger Partner Equityholder as Merger Consideration.

(ii) For purposes of this Section 3.1(c), (A) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Merger shall include any (x) shares of SpinCo Common Stock (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all shares of SpinCo Common Stock that could be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) at or after the Effective Time), (y) instruments that are treated as SpinCo Common Stock for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and (z) shares of SpinCo Common Stock that may be issued after the consummation of the Merger, pursuant to the exercise or settlement of an option or other contract acquired or entered into before the Merger that may be regarded as having been acquired or entered into before the Merger as part of a “plan” or “series of related transactions” of which the Distribution is a part within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account the safe harbors under Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(d)) and (B) the “SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value” shall be equal to the quotient resulting from dividing (x) the total equity value of the Surviving Entity, by (y) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock outstanding, in each case, immediately following the consummation of the Merger.

(iii) The determination as to whether the amount of Qualified SpinCo Common Stock to be received in the Distribution by holders of Company Common Stock in respect of their Company Common Stock meets the Threshold Percentage and the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value, in each case, shall be made jointly by Merger Partner and the Company acting reasonably and in good faith and in consultation with their outside legal counsel and tax advisors. In furtherance thereof, (A) during the Interim Period, Merger Partner and the Company shall promptly notify the other upon it becoming aware of any action or occurrence that would reasonably be expected to result in the need for an adjustment to the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) and (B) no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date, Merger Partner and the Company shall (1) provide the other with any information that is reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the other Party with respect to the calculation of the Applicable Percentage and the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value and (2) promptly thereafter, if such Party determines that the Threshold Percentage is not met, notify the other Party thereof (together with its calculation of the Applicable Percentage and the SpinCo Common Stock Per Share Value and proposed adjustment required to (x) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be distributed to the Company’s stockholders in the Distribution, and (y) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be issued to the Merger Partner Equityholder as Merger Consideration (if any) and the Merger Partner Equityholder Contribution Amount (if any), including reasonable supporting detail for any such calculations). Merger Partner and the Company shall consider and discuss in good faith any adjustment to the Merger Consideration or the Merger Partner Equityholder Contribution Amount proposed by the other Party and seek to determine the final amounts thereof no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

Section 3.2 Exchange of Interests.

(a) Exchange Procedures. At the Effective Time (or, with respect to any Additional Merger Consideration to which Merger Partner Equityholder shall become entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and Annex I at or after the Effective Time, pursuant to Annex I), SpinCo shall issue (or, to the extent applicable pursuant to Annex I, the escrow agent shall transfer) to Merger Partner Equityholder, in direct book-entry form, the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock representing the Base Merger Consideration and any Additional Merger Consideration, in each case, issuable to Merger Partner Equityholder pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i).

(b) No Further Ownership Rights in SpinCo Common Stock. All shares of SpinCo Common Stock issued in respect of Merger Partner Equity Interests in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2 shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Merger Partner Equity Interests, other than Merger Partner Equityholder’s right to receive any Additional Merger Consideration to the extent applicable and not received at the Effective Time.

(c) Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Merger Partner shall be closed and no transfer shall be made of any Interests of Merger Partner that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Tax Withholding. SpinCo, the Company and Merger Partner shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to Merger Partner Equityholder such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided that the Parties shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding to the extent permissible under state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Section 3.3 Additional Merger Consideration. Any additional shares of SpinCo Common Stock that Merger Partner Equityholder shall become entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and Annex I of this Agreement (whether at or after the Effective Time) shall be deemed to be additional merger consideration (the “Additional Merger Consideration”) payable to the Merger Partner Equityholder in respect of the Merger Partner Equity Interests.

Section 7.2 Tax Matters.

(a) This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368 of the Code and the Parties hereby adopt it as such.

Following the Effective Time, none of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Partner, Merger Partner Equityholder or any of their respective Affiliates shall (and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cause each member of the Merger Partner Equityholder Group not to) knowingly take any action, cause or permit any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could prevent the Tax-Free Status.

(b) Each of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Partner and Merger Partner Equityholder shall (and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cause each member of the Merger Partner Equityholder Group to) cooperate with one another and shall (and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cause each member of the Merger Partner Equityholder Group to) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company to obtain a written opinion of WLRK, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and a written opinion of Company Accounting Firm, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company (the “Distribution Tax Opinions”), each dated as of the Closing Date, to the effect that the Distribution will satisfy the “business purpose” and “device” tests for purposes of Section 355 of

the Code and that Section 355(e) will not apply to the Distribution and, with respect to the opinion of Company Accounting Firm, the other Tax-Free Transactions (other than the Merger) will satisfy the “business purpose” and “device” tests for purposes of Section 355 of the Code and that Section 355(e) will not apply to such Tax-Free Transactions. In delivering the Distribution Tax Opinions, Company Accounting Firm and WLRK shall be entitled to receive and rely upon the Merger Partner Distribution Tax Representations and the Company Distribution Tax Representations.

(c) Each of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Partner and Merger Partner Equityholder shall (and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cause each member of the Merger Partner Equityholder Group to) cooperate with one another and shall (and Merger Partner Equityholder shall cause each member of the Merger Partner Equityholder Group to) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Company to obtain a written opinion of WLRK (the “Company Merger Tax Opinion”) and Merger Partner to obtain a written opinion of Cravath (the “Merger Partner Merger Tax Opinion”) reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and Merger Partner, respectively, dated as of the Closing Date, to the effect that, on the basis of the facts, representations and assumptions set forth or referred to in such opinion, the Merger will be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. In delivering the Company Merger Tax Opinion and the Merger Partner Merger Tax Opinion, WLRK and Cravath shall both be entitled to receive and rely upon the SpinCo Merger Tax Representations and the Merger Partner Merger Tax Representations.

(d) The Company and SpinCo, on the one hand, and Merger Partner and Merger Partner Equityholder, on the other hand, shall cooperate with each other in obtaining, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain, any Tax opinions required to be filed with the SEC in connection with the filing of the SpinCo Registration Statement and shall each use its respective reasonable best efforts to cause such opinions to be timely filed.

(e) Merger Partner will promptly notify the Company if, before the Effective Time, it knows or has reason to believe that Merger Partner is not reasonably expected to be able to obtain the Merger Partner Merger Tax Opinion.

(f) The Company will promptly notify Merger Partner if, before the Effective Time, it knows or has reason to believe that the Company is not reasonably expected to be able to obtain any of the Distribution Tax Opinions or the Company Merger Tax Opinion.

(g) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, the Company shall submit the IRS Ruling Request. The Company shall submit to the IRS supplemental materials relating thereto that the Company determines in good faith are necessary or appropriate to obtain the requested rulings under the IRS Ruling Request or any additional rulings from the IRS that the Company determines are necessary or appropriate, including as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, together with the IRS Ruling Request, an “IRS Submission”). All IRS Submissions shall be prepared by the Company, subject to the terms of this Section 7.2(g). The Company shall have control over the process for submitting and prosecuting all the IRS Submissions, except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.2(g). From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Effective Time, each Party agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate receipt by the Company of the IRS Ruling (and any additional

rulings the Company determines are necessary or appropriate), including providing such appropriate information as the IRS shall require in connection with the IRS Ruling Request or any IRS Submission. The Company shall provide Merger Partner or Cravath with draft copies of each material IRS Submission reasonably in advance of the filing thereof with the IRS and consider in good faith any comments provided by Merger Partner on such draft copies of each IRS Submission; provided that the Company may redact from any such draft copies any information (“Redactable Information”) that the Company, in its good faith judgment, considers to be confidential and not germane to Merger Partner’s or SpinCo’s obligations under this Agreement or any Transaction Documents. The Company shall provide Merger Partner with copies of each IRS Submission filed with the IRS as filed with the IRS promptly following the filing thereof; provided that (x) the Company may redact any Redactable Information from such IRS Submissions and (y) in the case of any material IRS Submission containing representations relating to SpinCo, any SpinCo Subsidiary, Merger Partner or any Merger Partner Subsidiary, which representations are not customary and which would have a material adverse effect on Merger Partner and its Affiliates (including the SpinCo Entities) taken as a whole, such representations shall require the approval, prior to filing with the IRS, of Merger Partner (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Company shall provide Merger Partner with notice reasonably in advance of any formally scheduled meetings (including telephonic meetings) with the IRS (subject to the approval of the IRS) that relate to an IRS Submission and permit one member of Cravath to attend such meetings.

(h) In the event of any Adverse Law Event prior to Closing or if the Company reasonably determines that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Transaction Documents would result in a material amount of Tax to the Company or any of its Affiliates, the Parties shall collaborate reasonably and in good faith in order to change the method or structure of effecting the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the Reorganization) so as to either (x) make likely the receipt from the IRS of the IRS Ruling, (y) make likely the receipt of the Distribution Tax Opinions or the Merger Tax Opinions or (z) allow the Company to accomplish the same result as the structure contemplated as of the date hereof in a tax-free or, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, tax efficient manner, as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date; provided, however, that no such change shall alter or change the Merger Consideration, including the nature of the Merger Consideration, or (without the consent of either Party, in their reasonable discretion) materially alter the scope of the SpinCo Business, the SpinCo Assets, the SpinCo Entities or SpinCo Liabilities to be acquired by Merger Partner in connection with the Transactions. In the event that the Parties reasonably, and in good faith, agree to an alternative structure pursuant to this Section 7.2(h), they shall be obligated, as soon as practicable thereafter, to modify the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to the extent required in order to reflect such change in transaction structure, and the Parties shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the transactions contemplated hereby, as so modified, to be consummated as soon as practicable thereafter.

As promptly as practicable after the SpinCo Registration Statement shall have become effective, the Company shall cause the Distribution Documents to be mailed or made available to the Company’s stockholders pursuant to applicable Law. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the SpinCo Registration Statement will be made by the Company or SpinCo without providing Merger Partner with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (and such comments shall be reasonably considered by the Company in good faith). Each Party (as applicable) will cause the Distribution Documents to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of U.S. federal securities Laws.

(c) If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Merger Partner, Merger Partner Equityholder, the Company or SpinCo, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by Merger Partner, Merger Partner Equityholder, the Company or SpinCo which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the SpinCo Registration Statement, so that any such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC, and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the equityholders of Merger Partner or the Company, as applicable. Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly of the time when the SpinCo Registration Statement has become effective and of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the shares of SpinCo Common Stock issuable in the Distribution for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. In addition, each Party agrees to promptly provide the other Party and their respective counsel with copies of any written comments or requests for amendments or supplements, and shall promptly inform the other Party of any oral comments or requests for amendments or supplements, that such Party or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC with respect to the SpinCo Registration Statement promptly after receipt of such comments, and shall provide the other Party with copies of any written or oral responses or correspondence between it or its Affiliates and the SEC related thereto. Each Party and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review in advance any such written responses and to participate in any discussions or oral material communications with the SEC, and each Party shall reasonably consider in good faith the additions, deletions, comments or changes suggested thereto by the other Party and its counsel.

By executing and delivering this Agreement, each of the Parties irrevocably: (i) except as otherwise expressly provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement and any other Transaction Document, accepts generally and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any Action relating to this Agreement, including any Action brought for any remedy contemplated by Section 10.8; (ii) waives any objections which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action contemplated by this Section 10.2 and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such Action has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat the personal jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (iv) agrees that it will not bring any Action contemplated by this Section 10.2 in any court other than the Chosen Courts; (v) agrees that service of all process, including the summons and complaint, in any Action may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to such party at their respective addresses provided in accordance with Section 10.3 or in any other manner permitted by Law; and (vi) agrees that service as provided in the preceding clause (v) is sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such Party in the Action, and otherwise constitutes effective and binding service in every respect. Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment in any Action in a Chosen Court as provided above may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law, and each party further agrees to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for the enforcement or execution of any such judgment.

Annex II

Summary of Principal Governance Terms

The following summary of principal terms, including Annex A attached hereto (together, this “Term Sheet”) sets forth the proposed terms in relation to the governance arrangements of SpinCo. Capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the certain Agreement and Plan of Merger between Amentum Parent Holdings LLC, Amentum Joint Venture LP, Jacobs Solutions Inc. and Amazon Holdco Inc. to which this Term Sheet is attached.

Board of Directors

1.	The SpinCo Board will consist of 14 directors:

(A)

7 directors selected by the Company who must be reasonably acceptable to Merger Partner (the “Company Designated Directors”).

(i)

1 of whom will be Steve J. Demetriou (or, if prior to the Closing he becomes unable to serve, a replacement designated by the Company and approved by Merger Partner, with approval not to be unreasonably withheld).

(ii)

The remaining 6 directors must qualify as “independent” of both SpinCo and the Company under the NYSE listing standards, including with respect to membership on the audit committee, as determined by the SpinCo Board (any such designee who so qualifies as independent, a “Company Independent Director”).

(B)

7 directors selected by Merger Partner (the “Merger Partner Designated Directors”), consisting of:

(i)

John Heller, the Chief Executive Officer of SpinCo;

(ii)

John Vollmer, the former Chief Executive Officer of Merger Partner;

(iii)

Alan Goldberg and Russell Triedman from Lindsay Goldberg LLC;

(iv)

Benjamin Dickson and Connor Wentzell from American Securities LLC; and

(v)

1 remaining director who must be reasonably acceptable to the Company and qualify as “independent” of both SpinCo and Merger Partner under the NYSE listing standards, including with respect to membership on the audit committee, within 1 year of the listing of SpinCo, as determined by the SpinCo Board (any such designee who so qualifies as independent, a “Merger Partner Independent Director” and, together with the Company Independent Directors, the “Independent Directors”); provided that such director shall not be a current or former employee of Merger Partner or SpinCo.

(vi)

If prior to Closing any of the named Merger Partner Designated Directors above become unable to serve, Merger Partner shall designate a replacement who will not be an employee of SpinCo and must be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

2.	Promptly following the date of the Merger Agreement, the parties will assess the independence of the Merger Partner Designated Directors set forth above. If the parties mutually determine that each of Mr. Goldberg, Triedman, Dickson and Wentzell would qualify as Merger Partner

Independent Directors if appointed to the SpinCo Board, then the SpinCo Board size will be reduced to 12 directors and each of the Company and Merger Partner will have the right to designate 6 instead of 7 directors to join the SpinCo Board at Closing (for the avoidance of doubt, which will include all of the above named Merger Partner Designated Directors).

3.	Initial compensation for all non-management directors of SpinCo (other than the Executive Chairman) will be the compensation currently provided to the Company’s independent directors.

Executive Chairman

Mr. Demetriou will be the Executive Chairman of SpinCo for 2 years following the Closing. Thereafter, the SpinCo Board will determine by majority vote whether to reappoint Mr. Demetriou as Executive Chairman or to appoint Mr. Demetriou or another director as non-executive Chairman. If at any time during such 2-year period, Mr. Demetriou becomes unable to serve as Executive Chairman, the Company Designated Directors who are members of the Governance Committee may select a replacement director to serve as non-executive Chairman of the SpinCo Board.

Independent Lead Director

Majority of the SpinCo Board appoints the independent lead director; provided that (x) the initial independent lead director shall be determined by Merger Partner (which designee shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) and (y) until the second anniversary of the Closing, the roles of independent lead director and Governance Committee Chair shall be split between Company Designated Directors and Merger Partner Designated Directors.

Replacement Directors

If at any time prior to the earlier to occur of (x) the second annual meeting of SpinCo’s stockholders that occurs after the Closing and (y) the first anniversary of the Closing (such earlier time, the “Specified Date”) any Company Designated Director ceases to serve on the SpinCo Board for any reason, a majority of the remaining Company Designated Directors who are members of the Governance Committee shall designate a replacement who qualifies as a Company Independent Director to fill the vacancy resulting from such Company Designated Director ceasing to serve on the Board. Any such replacement shall be deemed a Company Designated Director.

For so long as Merger Partner Equityholder beneficially owns a number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock representing the percentage of issued and outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock set forth below, Merger Partner Equityholder shall be entitled to designate the below number of nominees that the SpinCo Board shall nominate for the annual stockholder election (provided that if the SpinCo Board is classified, such nominees based on the total SpinCo Board composition shall be pro-rated proportionally within each class), in each case, assuming a SpinCo Board size of 14 directors and otherwise to be proportionally decreased if the SpinCo Board size is reduced (but rounded down to the nearest whole person):

(A)

25.1% or greater percentage ownership: 6 nominees, of which at least 2 shall qualify as an Independent Director;

(B)

15% or greater but less than 25.1% ownership percentage: 4 nominees, of which at least 1 shall qualify as an Independent Director;

(C)

5% or greater but less than 15% ownership percentage: 2 nominees; and

(D)

Less than 5% ownership percentage: none;

provided, however, that any such nominees designated by Merger Partner Equityholder must satisfy applicable eligibility requirements (e.g., of the SEC and NYSE and other customary eligibility requirements for the Board generally applicable to all nominees to the Board) as determined by the Governance Committee.

At any time that Merger Partner Equityholder has a nomination right with respect to a Merger Partner Designated Director pursuant to paragraph 7, in the event that any Merger Partner Designated Director ceases to serve on the Board for any reason, a majority of the remaining Merger Partner Designated Directors shall designate a temporary replacement to fill the vacancy resulting from such Merger Partner Designated Director ceasing to serve on the Board until the next stockholder meeting. Any person designated by Merger Partner Equityholder pursuant to paragraph 7 hereof or by the Merger Partner Designated Directors pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed a Merger Partner Designated Director.

Removal of Directors

9.	Other than the Company Designed Directors prior to the Specified Date and Mr. Demetriou prior to the second anniversary of the Closing (each of whom may only be removed for cause), directors may be removed with or without cause by majority vote of the stockholders of SpinCo.

Board Classes

10.

The SpinCo Board will consist of 3 classes of directors, with each class of directors put before shareholders for election once every 3 years. The Company Designated Directors and Merger Partner Designated Directors will be allocated approximately evenly among the classes, provided that Mr. Demetriou will be in the class of directors up for election 3 years after the Closing. The staggered board structure will phase out over a 3-year period starting with the first annual election after the Closing.

11.	Until the second anniversary of the Closing, an equal number of Company Designated Directors and Merger Partner Designated Directors will be appointed to each SpinCo Board committee, subject to satisfying any applicable eligibility requirements (e.g., SEC and NYSE rules).

13.	Compensation and Governance Committees of the SpinCo Board. Subject to satisfying any applicable eligibility requirements:

(A)

Each of the Compensation and Governance Committees will consist of 4 directors.

(B)

Until the second anniversary of Closing, at least 2 of the directors on each such committee will be Company Designated Directors and at least 2 of the directors on each such committee will be Merger Partner Designated Directors.

(D)

Following the second anniversary of Closing until Merger Partner Equityholder beneficially owns less than 25.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock, at least 2 of the directors on each such committee will be a Merger Partner Designated Director and for so long as any Merger Partner Designated Director is eligible to serve on each such committee, at least 1 such director will serve on each such committee.

14.

The chair of the Governance Committee will be appointed by a majority of the SpinCo Board; provided that (x) the initial chair of the Governance Committee shall be determined by the Company (which designee shall be reasonably acceptable to Merger Partner) and (y) until the second anniversary of the Closing, the roles of independent lead director and Governance Committee Chair shall be split between Company Designated Directors and Merger Partner Designated Directors.

17.	Chief Operating Officer of SpinCo

The Chief Operating Officer of SpinCo will be Steve Arnette, unless he becomes unable to serve prior to the Closing.

In addition, Merger Partner Equityholder (or any Merger Partner Sponsor Transferee) shall not transfer 15% or more to any Person or “group” (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) without the transferee agreeing to a lockup and a standstill no less restrictive than those restricting Merger Partner Equityholder under the Stockholders Agreement. The Company shall be a third-party beneficiary of this standstill provision.

(D)

Transfer of certain rights: Stockholders Agreement to include appropriate mechanics reflecting that the rights of Merger Partner Equityholder with respect to director nominations, committees, changes to the Chief Executive Officer and other governance matters are personal to Merger Partner Equityholder and its Merger Partner Sponsor Transferees and shall not be transferable to any other person.

21.

Registration rights: Each of Merger Partner Equityholder and the Company shall have the following registration rights (which, in the case of Merger Partner Equityholder shall be provided in the Stockholders Agreement, and in the case of the Company shall be included in a registration rights agreement by and between SpinCo and the Company to be entered into on the Closing Date):

(i)

Demand Registration: Following the Closing (or, in the case of registration rights of Merger Partner Equityholder, following the Lock-Up Date), the Company and Merger Partner Equityholder shall have the right to demand registration of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) on Form S-1 at any time, subject to any applicable underwriter lock-up. Upon such demand, SpinCo shall be required to promptly file a registration statement and use reasonable best efforts to cause it to be declared effective within 60 days. Each of the Company and Merger Partner Equityholder shall be entitled to two such long-form demands; provided that the anticipated gross proceeds of any such demand cannot be less than $50 million (or a lesser amount if all shares of SpinCo Common Stock beneficially owned by the Company or the Merger Partner Equityholder, as applicable, are requested to be sold).

(ii)

Shelf Registration: SpinCo shall file and maintain a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 as soon as it is eligible to do so, covering the resale of the Registrable Securities. SpinCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shelf registration statement to be continuously effective and useable until the time as the Company and Merger Partner Equityholder (or their permitted transferees) no longer beneficially own any Registrable Securities. The Company and Merger Partner Equityholder shall be entitled to demand an unlimited number of shelf takedowns and shelf registrations (on a non-underwritten basis).

(iii)

Piggyback Registration: The Company and Merger Partner Equityholder will have unlimited customary piggyback registration rights.

(iv)

Underwritten Offerings: Each of the Company and Merger Partner Equityholder may request up to two underwritten offerings in any 365-day period, provided that the anticipated gross proceeds of any such offering cannot be less than $50 million (or a lesser amount if all shares of SpinCo Common Stock beneficially owned by the Company or the Merger Partner Equityholder, as applicable, are requested to be sold).

(v)

Blackout Periods: Registration rights are subject to customary blackout periods, which may be exercised for no more than 60 days in any 365-day period (inclusive of customary quarterly blackout periods); provided, that during the 1-year period after Closing, the maximum aggregate number of blackout days for purposes of the Company’s registration rights shall be 30. Subject to the foregoing limitation, SpinCo has a right to delay a demand for registration or a takedown, or suspend use of the shelf if the demand, takedown or use of the shelf would require disclosure of information that will materially interfere with any transaction or negotiations involving SpinCo or its subsidiaries.

(vi)

Cutback Provisions: Registration rights will be subject to a customary underwriter “cutback” provision that would permit the underwriters to reduce the number of shares to be sold in an offering on a pro rata basis if required for marketing reasons.

(vii)

As used herein, “Registrable Securities” means the shares of SpinCo Common Stock beneficially owned by the Company or Merger Partner Equityholder immediately following the Closing, together with any SpinCo Common Stock received by Merger Partner Equityholder as Additional Merger Consideration, subject to any customary adjustments or limitations to be set forth in a Stockholders Agreement.

(viii)

SpinCo will pay reasonably incurred, out-of-pocket registration and filing fees, fees for legal counsel to Merger Partner Equityholder and the Company, as applicable, and any printing/mailing expenses (and, for the avoidance of doubt, will not bear any underwriter fees or discounts).

(ix)

To the extent not otherwise expressly provided above, the terms and conditions of the foregoing registration rights shall be on customary terms for shareholder registration rights
