(a)Closing Date.Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions (other than those conditions that are not legally permitted to be waived) to closing set forth in Article VI, the closing (the “Closing”) of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.1 shall be held at the offices of McGuireWoods LLP at Gateway Plaza, 800 East Canal Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219-3916 on the third (3^rd) Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver (other than those conditions that are not legally permitted to be waived) of all of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than conditions that would normally be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to satisfaction or waiver (other than those conditions that are not legally permitted to be waived) of those conditions) commencing at 9:00 a.m., local time, or such other place, date and time as may be mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto;provided, however, that the Closing shall not occur on or prior to the record date for the regular quarterly cash distribution on the DM Common Units that is paid or payable during the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2019 (“DM Fourth Quarter Distribution”). The “Closing Date,” as referred to herein, shall mean the date on which the Closing actually occurs.

(b)Effective Time.Concurrently with or as soon as practicable following the Closing, Parent and DM shall cause a certificate of merger effecting the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, duly executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of DRULPA and DLLCA, as applicable (the date and time

of such filing (or, if agreed by the parties hereto, such later time and date as may be expressed therein as the effective date and time of the Merger) being the “Effective Time”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall merge with and into DM, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and DM shall continue as the surviving limited partnership in the Merger (the “Surviving Entity”).

(c)Effect of the Merger on Equity Securities.Subject in each case to Sections 2.1(e) and 2.1(f), at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, DM, DM General Partner, any Holder of DM Units, any Holder of Parent Common Stock, or any other Person:

(i)Conversion of DM Public Common Units. Each of the DM Public Common Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive 0.2492 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Parent Common Stock. In addition, if the Effective Time occurs on or after the record date for the regular quarterly cash dividend on the Parent Common Stock that is paid or payable during the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2019 (the “Parent First Quarter Dividend”), then each Holder of DM Public Common Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time also shall be entitled to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equal to the Parent First Quarter Dividend to which such Holder would have been entitled if (x) the Effective Time had occurred prior to the record date for the Parent First Quarter Dividend and (y) on the record date for the Parent First Quarter Dividend, such Holder was a Holder of the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock such Holder is entitled to receive pursuant to the preceding sentence (in either case, such number of shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the preceding sentence and such amount of cash, if any, the “Merger Consideration”).

(ii)Treatment of DM Public Series A Preferred Units. Each of the DM Public Series A Preferred Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the election of the holders of such units in accordance with the DM Partnership Agreement, either (A) convert into DM Public Common Units (such converted or redeemed units pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(A) or (C), the “DM Converted Units”) in accordance with Sections 5.11(b)(vii)(B)(1) or (2) of the DM Partnership Agreement, (B) remain outstanding in accordance with Section 5.11(b)(vii)(B)(3) of the DM Partnership Agreement, or (C) be redeemed for cash or DM Public Common Units, in the sole discretion of DM, in accordance with Section 5.11(b)(vii)(B)(4) of the DM Partnership Agreement. Each Holder of DM Converted Units shall receive the Merger Consideration in exchange for their DM Converted Units. All DM Series A Preferred Units that remain outstanding at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time.

(iii)Conversion and Cancellation of the DM Public Units. Each DM Public Unit, upon being converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(i) or Section 2.1(c)(ii), as applicable, shall cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each Holder of such DM Public Units immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter cease to be a limited partner of DM or have any rights with respect to such DM Public Units, (A) except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and (B) the right to receive any dividends, distributions and

Fractional Share Payments to which former Holders of DM Public Units become entitled, all in accordance with this Article II upon the Surrender of uncertificated DM Public Units represented by book-entry form (“Book-Entry DM Public Units”), and receipt of such other documents in accordance with Section 2.2.

(iv)Treatment ofDM-Owned Units, Parent-Owned Partnership Interests andNon-Converting Series A Holders. Any DM Units that are owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by DM shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange for such canceled DM Units. The (A) DM General Partner Interest, (B) DM Incentive Distribution Rights, (C) DM Units that are not DM Public Units and are not cancelled pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (D) DM Public Series A Preferred Units held byNon-Converting Series A Holders shall, in each case, remain outstanding as partnership interests in the Surviving Entity, unaffected by the Merger.

(v)Equity of Merger Sub. The outstanding limited liability company interest in Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an aggregate number of DM Common Units equal to the number of DM Public Units that are converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(i) and Section 2.1(c)(ii), and the holder of such DM Common Units shall be admitted as a limited partner of DM. At the Effective Time, the books and records of DM shall be revised to reflect the cancellation and retirement of all DM Public Units and the conversion of the limited liability company interest in Merger Sub to DM Common Units, the admission of the sole member of Merger Sub as a limited partner of DM and the existence of DM (as the Surviving Entity) shall continue without dissolution.

(d)Other Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall be conducted in accordance with and shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of DRULPA and DLLCA. At the Effective Time, (i) the certificate of limited partnership of DM shall continue as the certificate of limited partnership of the Surviving Entity, and (ii) the DM Partnership Agreement shall remain unchanged and shall continue as the agreement of limited partnership of the Surviving Entity.

(e)No Fractional Shares.Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in the Merger and (ii) each registered Holder of DM Public Units exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all DM Public Units held by such Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time) shall receive from Parent, in lieu of such fractional share, an amount (a “Fractional Share Payment”) in cash (payable in dollars, without interest) equal to the product of (A) such fraction, multiplied by (B) the average of the closing price of Parent Common Stock as reported on the NYSE Composite Transactions Tape (as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets or such other source as the parties shall agree in writing) over the five trading day period ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the Effective Time. The parties acknowledge that payment of such cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock was not separatelybargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock.

(f)Certain Adjustments.If between the Execution Date and the Effective Time, whether or not permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the number of outstanding DM Common Units or shares of Parent Common Stock shall be changed into a different number of units, shares or other securities (including any different class or series of securities) by reason of any dividend or distribution payable in partnership interests, voting securities, equity interests or Rights, subdivision, reclassification, split,split-up, combination, merger, consolidation, reorganization, exchange or other similar transaction, or any such transaction shall be authorized, declared or agreed upon with a record date at or prior to the Effective Time, then the Merger Consideration, and any other similarly dependent items shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of such transaction and to provide to DM, Merger Sub and the Holders of DM Restricted Unit Awards and DM Public Units the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event, and thereafter, all references in this Agreement to the Merger Consideration, and any other similarly dependent items shall be references to the Merger Consideration, and any other similarly dependent items, as so adjusted;provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.1(f) shall be deemed to permit or authorize any party hereto to effect any such dividend or distribution payable in equity securities or Rights, subdivision, reclassification, split,split-up, combination, merger, consolidation, reorganization, exchange or other similar transaction, or the authorization, declaration or agreement to do such transaction that it is not otherwise authorized or permitted to be undertaken pursuant to this Agreement;provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt, that no adjustment to the Merger Consideration shall be made relating to the merger pursuant to the SCANA Merger Agreement.

SECTION 2.2Exchange of DM Public Units.

(a)Exchange Agent.Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint Equiniti Trust Company to act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and any Fractional Share Payment. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall (A) deposit with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of DM Public Units, an amount of cash sufficient to effect the delivery of the estimated aggregate Fractional Share Payment and, if the Effective Time occurs on or after the record date for the Parent First Quarter Dividend, an amount of cash sufficient to effect the payment of the Parent First Quarter Dividend to Holders of DM Public Units in accordance with Section 2.1(c) (the “Exchange Fund”), (B) reserve with the Exchange Agent the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(i) and Section 2.1(c)(ii), and (C) authorize the Exchange Agent to exchange shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.2. In addition, Parent shall deposit with the transfer agent an amount of cash sufficient to effect the delivery of any declared but unpaid DM distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(d) in the ordinary course. Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent any additional cash or other consideration as applicable in excess of the Exchange Fund as and when necessary to pay any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c), any Fractional Share Payment and other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement. Parent shall pay all costs and fees of the Exchange Agent and all expenses associated with the exchange process. Any shares of Parent Common Stock, and any remaining amount of the Exchange Fund or other funds deposited shall be returned to Parent after the earlier to occur of (x) payment in full of all amounts due to the Holders of DM Public Units and (y) the expiration of the period specified in Section 2.2(e).

(b)Exchange Procedures.Each Holder of record of one or more Book-Entry DM Public Units shall upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” in customary form (it being understood that the Holders of Book-Entry DM Public Units shall be deemed to have Surrendered such DM Public Units upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of such “agent’s message” or such other evidence, if any, as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, (A) a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to (1) any dividends and other distributions such Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(c) plus (2) any cash in lieu of any Fractional Share Payment such Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(e) plus (3) if the Effective Time occurs after the record date for the Parent First Quarter Dividend, an amount of cash sufficient to effect payment of the Parent First Quarter Dividend to Holders of DM Common Units in accordance with Section 2.1(c), and (B) the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock, in uncertificated book-entry form, such Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c).

(c)Dividends and Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged DM Public Units.No dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Holder of any Book-Entry DM Public Units not Surrendered with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock issuable in respect thereof until the Surrender of such Book-Entry DM Public Units in accordance with this Section 2.2. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, Parent shall pay, or cause the Exchange Agent to pay, to each Holder of Book-Entry DM Public Units, without interest, (i) at the time of Surrender of such Book-Entry DM Public Units, the amount of dividends or other distributions previously paid with respect to the whole shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to such Book-Entry DM Public Units that have a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the time of Surrender and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends and distributions payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to such Surrender and a payment date subsequent to such Surrender.

(d)No Further Ownership Rights in DM Public Units.All Merger Consideration issued upon the Surrender for exchange of Book-Entry DM Public Units in accordance with the terms of this Article II (including any Fractional Share Payment) shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the DM Public Units heretofore represented by such Book-Entry DM Public Units, subject, however, to Parent’s obligation, notwithstanding the conversion of DM Public Units pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to DM Public Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, to pay (or cause DM to pay) to the Holder of DM Public Units as of the applicable record date any dividends and distributions with a record date at or prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by DM or the DM General Partner with respect to such DM Common Units in accordance with the terms of the DM Partnership Agreement on or prior to the Effective Time and that remain unpaid at the Effective Time.

(e)Termination of Exchange Fund.Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the Holders of the Book-Entry DM Public Units for twelve months after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any Holders of the Book-Entry DM Public Units who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.2 shall thereafter look only to Parent and only as general creditors thereof for payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration, any Fractional Share Payment and any dividends and distributions with respect to DM Common Units or shares of Parent Common Stock to which such Holders may be entitled.

(f)No Liability.To the extent permitted by applicable Law, none of Parent, Merger Sub, DM, DM General Partner or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration, distribution or Fractional Share Payment properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Book-Entry DM Public Units shall not have been Surrendered immediately prior to such date on which any Merger Consideration, any Fractional Share Payment or any dividends and distributions with respect to DM Common Units or shares of Parent Common Stock in respect of such Book-Entry DM Public Units would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such units, cash or distributions in respect of such Book-Entry DM Public Units shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g)Withholding Rights.Parent, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, without duplication, such amounts, which may include shares of Parent Common Stock, as Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent reasonably deems to be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity by Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

(h)No Dissenters’ Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 2.3Treatment of DM Restricted Unit Awards.

(a) At the Effective Time, each DM Restricted Unit Award that is not vested and does not vest in accordance with its terms (as set forth in an applicable award agreement) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to represent an award with respect to DM Common Units and shall be converted into an award with respect to shares of Parent Common Stock (a “Parent Award”), subject to the same vesting and forfeiture provisions as were applicable under such DM Restricted Unit Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, with the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Parent Award to be equal to the number of DM Common Units subject to each such DM Restricted Unit Award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (such product, rounded to the nearest whole share), with any corresponding accrued but unpaid DERs (as defined in the DM Long-Term Incentive Plan) with respect to any DM Restricted Unit Awards to be assumed, remain outstanding and continue to represent an obligation with respect to the applicable Parent Award.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, DM and DM General Partner shall take all action necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.3. DM and DM General Partner shall ensure that, as of immediately following the Effective Time, no holder of a DM Restricted Unit Award or participant in the DM Long-Term Incentive Plan shall have any rights thereunder to acquire, or other rights in respect of, the equity of DM, the Surviving Entity or any of the DM Subsidiaries.

(c) Parent shall reserve for issuance a number of shares of Parent Common Stock at least equal to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that will be subject to the Parent Awards as a result of the actions contemplated by this Section 2.3. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall, to the extent legally required, file a registration statement on FormS-8 (or any successor form, or if FormS-8 is not available, other appropriate forms, including FormS-3) with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such Parent Awards and shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of any such registration statement or registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such Parent Awards remain outstanding and the offering with respect thereto is required to be registered.

All of such DM Common Units, DM Series A Preferred Units, and DM Incentive Distribution Rights and the limited partner interests represented thereby have been duly authorized and validly issued in accordance with the DM Partnership Agreement, and are fully paid (to the extent required under the DM Partnership Agreement) and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections17-303,17-607 and17-804 of the DRULPA and the DM Partnership Agreement). The DM General Partner is the sole owner of the DM General Partner Interest and the DM General Partner Interest has been duly authorized and validly issued in accordance with the DM Partnership Agreement. As of the Execution Date, 3,000,000 DM Common Units were reserved for issuance under the DM Long-Term Incentive Plan, of which 10,424 DM Common Units were subject to outstanding restricted unit awards (the “DM Restricted Unit Awards”) and no DM Common Units were subject to outstanding options, unit appreciation rights, phantom units, or equity awards of

any other kind. All DM Common Units reserved for issuance under the DM Long-Term Incentive Plan, when issued in accordance with the respective terms thereof, are or will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid andnon-assessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections17-303,17-607 and17-804 of the DRULPA and the DM Partnership Agreement). Except as set forth above in this Section 3.4(a), as of the Execution Date there are not any DM Units, partnership interests, voting securities or equity interests of DM issued and outstanding or any Rights issued or granted by, or binding upon, DM, except as set forth in the DM SEC Reports (without giving effect to any DM SEC Report or any amendment to any DM SEC Report in each case filed on or after the Execution Date) or the DM Partnership Agreement as in effect on the Execution Date, except for awards granted under the DM Long-Term Incentive Plan, or except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement. Except as set forth in the DM Partnership Agreement as in effect on the Execution Date, there are no outstanding obligations of DM or any DM Group Entity to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any DM Units or other partnership interests, voting securities or equity interests or any Rights of DM or any DM Group Entity. There are no outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness, the holders of which have the right to vote (or which are convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) with the limited partners of DM on any matter.

(b) As of the Execution Date, all of the outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity or voting interests of each DM Subsidiary owned directly or indirectly by the DM Parties (i) are owned, beneficially and of record free and clear of all Liens and (ii) have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid (with respect to DM Subsidiaries that are limited liability companies or limited partnerships, to the extent required under the limited liability company agreement or limited partnership agreement of the applicable DM Subsidiary) and, except for any general partner interest in a DM Subsidiary, nonassessable (with respect to DM Subsidiaries that are limited liability companies or limited partnerships, except as such nonassessability may be affected by Sections18-607 and18-804 of the DLLCA or by Sections17-303,17-607 and17-804 of the DRULPA and the Governing Documents of the applicable entity).

SECTION 3.5SEC Documents; Internal Controls.

(a) Since January 1, 2017, all reports, including but not limited to the Annual Reports on Form10-K, the Quarterly Reports on Form10-Q and the Current Reports on Form8-K (whether filed on a voluntary basis or otherwise), forms, schedules, certifications, prospectuses, registration statements and other documents required to be filed or furnished by DM or any DM Subsidiary with or to the SEC (the “DM SEC Reports”) have been filed or furnished. For a period of at least twelve calendar months immediately prior to the Execution Date, all DM SEC Reports have been filed in a timely manner. The DM SEC Reports shall not include any reports required to be filed or furnished by any entity prior to such entity becoming a DM Subsidiary. Each of the DM SEC Reports (i) complied in all material respects with the requirements of applicable Law (including the Exchange Act, the Securities Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”)), and (ii) as of its effective date (in the case of DM SEC Reports that are registration statements filed pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act) and as of its filing date did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except for any statements (x) in any DM SEC Report that may have been modified by an amendment to such report or a subsequent report filed with the SEC prior to the Execution Date or (y) with respect to information supplied in writing by or on behalf of Parent, as to which DM makes no representation or warranty.

(b) Except as set forth on Section 3.5(b) of the DM Disclosure Letter, no DM Subsidiary is required to file reports, forms or other documents with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. There are no outstanding comments from, or unresolved issues raised by, the staff of the SEC with respect to the DM SEC Reports. No enforcement action has been initiated against DM relating to disclosures contained or omitted from any DM SEC Report.

(c) DM makes and keeps books, records, and accounts and has devised and maintains a system of internal controls, in each case, as required pursuant to Section 13(b)(2) under the Exchange Act. DM has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as such terms are defined in paragraphs (e) and (f), respectively, of Rule13a-15 under the Exchange Act) as required by Rule13a-15 under the Exchange Act and the applicable listing standards of the NYSE. Such disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by DM in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to its management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. DM General Partner’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer have disclosed, based on their most recent evaluation, to DM’s auditors and the audit committee of the DM Board (x) all significant deficiencies in the designation or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect DM’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for DM’s auditors any material weakness in internal controls and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in DM’s internal controls.

(d) Since January 1, 2017, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the DM General Partner have made all certifications (without qualification or exceptions to the matters certified, except as to Knowledge) required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the statements contained in any such certifications are complete and correct, and none of such entities or its officers have received notice from any Governmental Entity questioning or challenging the accuracy, completeness, form or manner of filing or submission of such certification. As of the Execution Date, and except as disclosed in a DM SEC Report filed with the SEC prior to the Execution Date, none of such entities has any Knowledge of any material weaknesses in the design or operation of such internal controls over financial reporting.

SECTION 3.6Financial Statements; Undisclosed Liabilities.

(a) The consolidated financial statements of DM included in the DM SEC Documents (the “DM Financial Statements”) as of their respective dates (if amended, as of the date of the last such amendment) comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of DM and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and the

(d) From the Execution Date until the Closing Date, each of Parent and DM shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, promptly notify the other party in writing of (i) any event, condition or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VI not being satisfied at the Effective Time, and (ii) any material breach by the notifying party of any covenant, obligation, or agreement contained in this Agreement;provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the notified party.

SECTION 5.2Access to Information; Confidentiality. Subject to applicable Laws, upon reasonable notice, each Party Group shall (and shall cause the members of such Party Group to) afford the officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other representatives and advisors of the requesting Party Group reasonable access, during normal business hours from the Execution Date until the Closing Date, to its properties, books, contracts and records as well as to their management personnel;provided, however,that such access shall be provided on a basis that minimizes the disruption to the operations of the disclosing Party Group and the members of its Party Group. The disclosing Party Group shall not be responsible to the requesting Party Group for personal injuries sustained by the requesting Party Group’s officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other representatives and advisors in connection with the access provided pursuant to this Section 5.2, and shall be indemnified and held harmless by the requesting Party Group for any losses suffered by the disclosing Party Group or its officers, employees or representatives in connection with any such personal injuries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party Group shall have no obligation to disclose or provide access to any information the disclosure of which such Party Group has concluded may jeopardize any privilege available to such Party Group relating to such information or would be in violation of a confidentiality obligation binding on such Party Group. Each Party Group agrees that it (i) shall not use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.2 for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the Merger and (ii) shall hold all information and documents obtained pursuant to this Section 5.2 in confidence;provided, however,the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.2 which such Party Group was, prior to the Execution Date, entitled to receive pursuant to applicable Law or any contract other than this Agreement. No investigation by any Party Group of the business and affairs of the other Party Group shall affect, or be deemed to modify or waive, any representation, warranty, covenant, or other agreement in this Agreement, or the conditions to any Party Group’s obligation to consummate the Merger.

Each of the Parent Parties and the DM Parties further agrees that, if it shall become aware prior to the Closing Date of any information that would cause any of the statements in the Registration Statement or the Consent Statement/Prospectus to be false or misleading with respect to any 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 false or misleading, it will promptly inform the other party thereof and take the necessary steps to correct such information in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Consent Statement/Prospectus.

(c) Each of DM and Parent shall (1) promptly notify the other of receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any other applicable government official and of any requests by the SEC or its staff or any other applicable government official for amendments or supplements to any of the filings with the SEC in connection with the Merger and other transactions contemplated hereby or for additional information and (2) promptly supply the other with copies of all correspondence between DM or any of its representatives, or Parent or any of its representatives, as the case may be, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff or any other applicable government official, on the other hand, with respect thereto.

(a) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Laws, Parent and the Surviving Entity shall, and shall cause the DM Group Entities to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless each DM D&O Indemnified Party against any reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs, expenses and obligations (including experts’ fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or

participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Proceeding arising from acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), including any Proceeding relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement brought by a DM D&O Indemnified Party), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) in connection with any actual or threatened Proceeding arising from acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), and, upon receipt by Parent of an undertaking by or on behalf of the DM D&O Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall be determined in a final andnon-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction that the DM D&O Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified, provide advancement of expenses with respect to each of the foregoing to, all DM D&O Indemnified Parties and (ii) honor all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses, elimination of liability and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) now existing in favor of the DM D&O Indemnified Parties as provided in the Governing Documents of any DM Group Entity, under applicable Delaware Law or otherwise, and shall ensure that the Governing Documents of DM and DM General Partner (or their successor entities) shall, for a period of six years following the Effective Time, contain provisions substantially no less advantageous with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses, elimination of liability and exculpation of their present and former directors, officers, employees and agents than are set forth in the Governing Documents of DM and DM General Partner as of the Execution Date. Any right of a DM D&O Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 5.9(a) shall not be amended, repealed, terminated or otherwise modified at any time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such DM D&O Indemnified Party as provided herein, and shall be enforceable by such DM D&O Indemnified Party and their respective heirs and representatives against Parent and its respective successors and assigns.

(b) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Parent shall maintain officers’ and directors’ liability insurance with a nationally reputable carrier covering each DM D&O Indemnified Party who is or at any time prior to the Effective Time was covered by the existing officers’ and directors’ liability insurance applicable to the DM Group Entities (“D&O Insurance”), on terms substantially no less advantageous to the DM D&O Indemnified Parties, as applicable, than such existing insurance with respect to acts or omissions, or alleged acts or omissions, at or prior to the Effective Time (whether claims, actions or other Proceedings relating thereto are commenced, asserted or claimed before or after the Effective Time);provided, however, that Parent shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance for the DM D&O Indemnified Parties in excess of 300% of the current annual premium currently paid by the DM Group Entities for such insurance, but shall purchase as much of such coverage as possible for such applicable amount. Parent shall have the right to cause such coverage to be extended under the applicable D&O Insurance by obtaining asix-year “tail” policy on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the DM D&O Indemnified Parties than the existing D&O Insurance, and such “tail” policy shall satisfy the provisions of this Section 5.9.

(c) The provisions of this Section 5.9 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of six years and expressly are intended to benefit each of the DM D&O Indemnified Parties;provided, however, that in the event that any claim or claims for indemnification or advancement set forth in this Section 5.9 are asserted or made within suchsix-year period, all rights to indemnification and advancement in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue until disposition of all such claims. The rights of any DM D&O Indemnified Party under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to any other rights such DM D&O Indemnified Party may have under the Governing Documents of any DM Group Entity or applicable Law.

(d) In the event Parent or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then and in either such case, Parent shall cause proper provision to be made so that its successors and assigns, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.9.

The DM Parties hereby consent to the Parent Group Entities’ use of and reliance on any audited or unaudited financial statements, including the DM Financial Statements, relating to the DM Group Entities reasonably requested by the Parent Parties to be used in any financing or other activities of the Parent Parties permitted hereby, including any filings that the Parent Parties desire to make with the SEC. In addition, the DM Parties will use reasonable best efforts, at the Parent Parties’ sole cost and expense, to obtain the consents of Deloitte & Touche LLP to the inclusion of the financial statements referenced above in appropriate filings with the SEC.

SECTION 8.2Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, the provisions of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Each of the parties hereto agrees that this Agreement involves at least $100,000 and that this Agreement has been entered into in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally confirms and agrees that it is and shall continue to be (a) subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware, and (b) subject to service of process in the State of Delaware. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) consents and submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over any matter, any federal or state court located in the State of Delaware) (the “Delaware Courts”) for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), (ii) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Delaware Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Delaware Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum, (c) acknowledges and agrees that any controversy that may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (d) agrees to service of process upon such party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if such process is given as a notice in accordance with Section 8.1 or in any manner prescribed by the Laws of the State of Delaware. Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.

SECTION 8.3Entire Agreement; Amendments, Consents and Waivers. This Agreement, the Support Agreement, and the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto constitute the entire agreement between and among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements between or among the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof except as set forth specifically herein or contemplated hereby. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement (including the representations and warranties set forth in Articles III and IV), (a) the parties acknowledge and agree that neither the DM Group Entities nor any other Person has made, and the Parent Group Entities are not relying upon, any covenant, representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the DM Group Entities or as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding any DM Group Entity furnished or made available to any Parent Group Entity, (b) the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, except as set forth in this Agreement, neither the Parent Group Entities nor any other Person has made, and the DM Group Entities are not relying upon, any covenant, representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the Parent Group Entities or as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding any Parent Group Entity furnished or made available to any DM Group Entity, and (c) the DM Parties and the Parent Parties shall not have or be subject to any liability to any Parent Group Entity or any other Person or any DM Group Entity or any other Person, as applicable, or any other remedy in connection herewith, based upon the distribution to any Parent Group Entity or any DM Group Entity of, or any Parent Group Entity’s or any DM Group Entity’s use of or reliance on, any such information or any information,

documents or material made available to the Parent Group Parties or DM Group Parties, as applicable, in any “data rooms,” “virtual data rooms,” management presentations or in any other form in expectation of, or in connection with, the transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, prior to the Effective Time, any provision of this Agreement may be (a) consented to or waived in writing by the party benefited by the provision or (b) amended or modified at any time by an agreement in writing by the parties hereto;provided, however, that, in addition to any other approvals required by the DM Parties’ constituent documents or under this Agreement, the foregoing consents, waivers, amendments or modifications in clauses (a) and (b), and any decision or determination by DM to (x) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 or (y) enforce this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 7.8), must be approved by, in the case of consents, waivers, amendments or modifications, or such decisions or determinations, by any DM Party, by the DM Board, and the DM Conflicts Committee. No amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. The failure of a party to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy in the future. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

SECTION 8.4Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights, benefits or obligations hereunder, except (i) as provided in Section 5.9, (ii) for the right of the Holders of DM Units to receive the Merger Consideration, any Fractional Share Payment and any distributions or dividends payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or Section 2.2(d) after the Closing (a claim by the Holders of DM Units with respect to which may not be made unless and until the Closing shall have occurred) and (iii) for the right of the Holders of DM Restricted Unit Awards to receive Parent Awards pursuant to Section 2.3 after the Closing (a claim by the Holders of DM Restricted Unit Awards with respect to which may not be made unless and until the Closing shall have occurred). No party hereto may assign, transfer, dispose of or otherwise alienate this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement (whether by operation of law or otherwise). Any attempted assignment, transfer, disposition or alienation in violation of this Agreement shall be null, void and ineffective.

SECTION 8.5Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of applicable Law, or public policy, all other conditions or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not affected in any matter materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SECTION 8.6Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one instrument.
