ARTICLE IV

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 4.01 Distributions.

(a) The General Partner, in its discretion, may authorize distributions by the Partnership to the Partners in accordance with the following provisions: (i) to the extent distributions are not attributable to an Extraordinary Event, to Partners holding Class A Units or Class E Units, which distributions shall be made pro rata in accordance with the Partners’ respective Total Class A and E Percentage Interests, (ii) to the extent distributions are attributable to a refinancing, recapitalization or other restructuring transaction or a merger (each, an “Extraordinary Event”) to all Partners that shall be made pro rata in accordance with the Partners’ respective Total Percentage Interests. For the avoidance of doubt, cash distributions of the Partnership that are not related to a refinancing, recapitalization, or other restructuring transaction or a merger shall not be considered an Extraordinary Event, and (iii) any distribution permitted pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) shall be made to all applicable Units and Interests, whether or not such Units or Interests are Vested Units or Vested Interests; provided, however, that distributable amounts (including to the extent attributable to an Extraordinary Event) made pursuant to this Section 4.01(a), but for the avoidance of doubt, not distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c), with respect to any Unvested Unit or Unvested Interest shall be held in reserve by the Partnership until such Unvested Unit or Unvested Interest becomes a Vested Unit or Vested Interest pursuant to this Agreement, at which time the distributable amounts held in reserve for such Unit or Interest shall be distributed to the holder of such Unit or Interest.

(b) (i) In addition to the foregoing, if the General Partner reasonably determines that the taxable income of the Partnership for a Fiscal Year will give rise to taxable income for the Partners (“Net Taxable Income”), the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to distribute Available Cash for purposes of allowing Partners to fund their respective income tax liabilities (the “Tax Distributions”), provided that distributions pursuant to Section 4.04 and allocations pursuant to Section 5.04 related to such distributions shall not be taken into account for purposes of this Section 4.01(b). The Tax Distributions payable to each such Partner with respect to any Fiscal Year shall be computed based upon the General Partner’s estimate of the Net Taxable Income allocated to such Partner multiplied by the Assumed Tax Rate (the “Tax Amount”). For purposes of computing the Tax Amount, the effect of any benefit to a Partner under Section 743(b) of the Code or any allocation of income or gain under Section 704(c) of the Code will be ignored. For the avoidance of doubt, Tax Distributions shall be computed taking into account the effect of any elections made pursuant to section 83(b) of the Code and accordingly shall be made in respect of both Vested and Unvested Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests.

(i) Tax Distributions shall be calculated and paid no later than one day prior to each quarterly due date for the payment by corporations of estimated taxes under the Code in the following manner (A) for the first quarterly period, 25% of the Tax Amount, (B) for the second quarterly period, 50% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year, (C) for the third quarterly period, 75% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year and (D) for the fourth quarterly period, 100% of the Tax Amount, less the prior Tax Distributions for the Fiscal Year. Following each Fiscal Year, and no later than one day prior to the due date for the payment by corporations of income taxes for such Fiscal Year, the General Partner shall make an amended calculation of the Tax Amount for such Fiscal Year (the “Amended Tax Amount”), and shall cause the Partnership to distribute a Tax Distribution, out of Available Cash, to the extent that the Amended Tax Amount so calculated exceeds the cumulative Tax Distributions previously made by the Partnership in respect of such Fiscal Year. If the Amended Tax Amount is less than the cumulative Tax Distributions previously made by the Partnership in respect of the relevant Fiscal Year, then the difference (the “Credit Amount”) shall be applied against, and shall reduce, the amount of Tax Distributions made to the Partners for subsequent Fiscal Years. Within 30 days following the date on which the Partnership files a tax return on Form 1065, the General Partner shall make a final calculation of the Tax Amount of such Fiscal Year (the “Final Tax Amount”) and shall cause the Partnership to distribute a Tax Distribution, out of Available Cash, to the extent that the Final Tax Amount so calculated exceeds the Amended Tax Amount. If the Final Tax Amount is less than the Amended Tax Amount in respect of the relevant Fiscal Year, then the difference (“Additional Credit Amount”) shall be applied against, and shall reduce, the amount of Tax Distributions made to the Partners for subsequent Fiscal Years. Any Credit Amount and Additional Credit Amount applied against future Tax Distributions shall be treated as an amount actually distributed pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) for purposes of the computations herein.

(c) (i) Each ISI Partner shall be entitled to additional distributions in an amount equal to the taxable income allocated to such Partner under Section 704(c) of the Code multiplied by the Assumed Tax Rate (an “Additional Tax Distribution”). Such distributions shall be made at the times and in accordance with the principles specified in Section 4.01(b). To the extent that a Partner has received Additional Tax Distributions, the Partnership shall reduce the amount of the next succeeding distribution or distributions that would otherwise have been made to such Partner, pursuant to Section 4.01(a) (but, for avoidance of doubt, not Section 4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c)), or, if such distributions are not sufficient for such purpose, the distributions otherwise payable to such Partner pursuant to Section 9.03(a)(ii) until the cumulative amount of such reductions with respect to such Partner is equal to cumulative amount of Additional Tax Distributions with respect to such Partner. For all purposes of this Agreement other than this Section 4.01(c), the amount of any reductions pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be treated as having been received as distributions by the applicable Partner with respect to the Unit or Interest with respect to which a distribution was made pursuant to this Section 4.01(c).

(ii) To the extent that cumulative reductions pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(i) with respect to any Partner are less than the cumulative amount of Additional Tax Distributions with respect to such Partner on the date any Units would otherwise be exchanged by such Partner for Class A Common Stock (a “Shortfall”), then the number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such Units would otherwise be exchanged shall be reduced by a number of shares of Class A Common Stock whose fair market value is equal to any remaining Shortfall on such date (such number of shares of Class A Stock, as applicable, the “Reduction Number”). A number of Units that would otherwise be exchangeable on such date equal to the Reduction Number shall be cancelled for no consideration. In the event that a Partner would be entitled to fractional shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of this Section 4.01(c)(ii), such fractional shares may be settled in cash at the election of the General Partner. When a Shortfall is reduced pursuant to this Section 4.01(c)(ii), it shall be treated as having reduced the amount of any remaining Additional Tax Distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(c)(i). For purposes of this Section 4.01(c), references to a “Partner” shall include Permitted Transferees of such Partner.

Section 4.02 Liquidation Distribution. Distributions made upon liquidation of the Partnership shall be made as provided in Section 9.03.

Section 4.03 Limitations on Distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not make a Partnership distribution to any Partner if such distribution would violate Section 17-607 of the Act or other applicable Law.

Section 4.04 Other Distributions. Distributions to any Partner pursuant to any services arrangement shall be deemed to be with respect to such Partner’s interests in the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

TAX MATTERS

Except as otherwise provided in this Article V or Article VII, no Partner shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to the Partnership without the consent of such Partner or permitted to make additional capital contributions to the Partnership without the consent of the General Partner.

Section 5.03 Capital Accounts. A separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and maintained for each Partner in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). The Capital Account of each Partner shall be credited with such Partner’s Capital Contributions, if any, all Profits allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.04 and any items of income or gain which are specially allocated pursuant to Section 5.05; and shall be debited with all Losses allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.04, any items of loss or deduction of the Partnership specially allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.05, and all cash and the Carrying Value of any property (net of liabilities assumed by such Partner and the liabilities to which such property is subject) distributed by the Partnership to such Partner. Any references in any section of this Agreement to the Capital Account of a Partner shall be deemed to refer to such Capital Account as the same may be credited or debited from time to time as set forth above. In the event of any transfer of any interest in the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the transferred interest.

Section 5.04 Allocations of Profits and Losses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Profits and Losses (and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain or loss or deduction of the Partnership) shall be allocated in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Partner after giving effect to the Special Allocations set forth in Section 5.05 is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to (a) the distributions that would be made pursuant to Article IV if the Partnership were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Carrying Value, all Partnership liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each non-recourse liability to the Carrying Value of the assets securing such liability) and the net assets of the Partnership were distributed to the Partners pursuant to this Agreement, minus (b) such Partner’s share of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. For purposes of this Article V, each Unvested Unit shall be treated as a Vested Unit. For avoidance of doubt, for purposes of applying this Section 5.04 the hypothetical sale of assets described in this Section 5.04 shall not be treated as an Extraordinary Event unless, and then only to the extent, that an Extraordinary Event otherwise actually occurs. It is expected that Partners shall not receive allocations of Profit and Loss in respect of general operating activities in respect of Class G Interests and Class H Interests, except to the extent provided in Section 5.05(h) and it is intended that these provisions are interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

Section 5.05 Special Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article V:

(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain or Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (determined in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(d) and 1.704-2(i)) during any Partnership taxable year, the Partners shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to their respective shares of such net decrease during such year, determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). This Section 5.05(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in such Treasury Regulations Sections and shall be interpreted consistently therewith; including that no chargeback shall be required to the extent of the exceptions provided in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4).

(b) Qualified Income Offset. If any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account Balance created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as promptly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.05(b) shall be made only to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Adjusted Capital Account Balance in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.05(b) were not in this Agreement. This Section 5.05(b) is intended to comply with the “qualified income offset” requirement of the Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Gross Income Allocation. If any Partner has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Partner is obligated to restore, if any, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and (ii) the amount such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.05(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if Section 5.05(b) and this Section 5.05(c) were not in this Agreement.

(d) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Total Percentage Interests.

(e) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the liability to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(j).

(f) Creditable Foreign Taxes. Creditable Foreign Taxes for any taxable period attributable to the Partnership, or an entity owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership, shall be allocated to the Partners in proportion to the partners’ distributive shares of income (including income allocated pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code) to which the Creditable Foreign Tax relates (under principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.904-6). The provisions of this Section 5.05(f) are intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(viii), and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(g) Ameliorative Allocations. Any special allocations of income or gain pursuant to Sections 5.05(b) or 5.05(c) hereof shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to Section 5.04 and this Section 5.05(g), so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all other items allocated to each Partner shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each Partner if such allocations pursuant to Sections 5.05(b) or 5.05(c) had not occurred.

(h) Allocation of Operating Income. If any Partner receives a distribution described in Section 4.04 for a Fiscal Year, then such Partner shall be allocated Operating Income in such Fiscal Year in an amount equal to the amount of such distribution. If the Partnership’s Operating Income for a Fiscal Year is less than the total distributions described in Section 4.04 for such Fiscal Year, the Partnership shall allocate items of gross income that are included in Operating Income in lieu of Operating Income for purposes of this subsection.

Section 5.06 Tax Allocations. For income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as the corresponding items of Profits and Losses and specially allocated items are allocated for Capital Account purposes; provided, that in the case of any asset the Carrying Value of which differs from its adjusted tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall be allocated solely for income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Sections 704(b) and (c) of the Code (in any manner determined by the General Partner and permitted by the Code and Treasury Regulations) so as to take account of the difference between Carrying Value and adjusted basis of such asset; provided, further, that the Partnership shall use the traditional method (as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. section 1.704-3(b)(1)) for all Section 704(c) allocations and “reverse Section 704(c) allocations”.

Section 5.07 Tax Advances. To the extent the Partnership reasonably believes that it is required by law to withhold or to make tax payments on behalf of or with respect to any Partner or the Partnership is subjected to tax itself by reason of the status of any Partner (“Tax Advances”), the General Partner may withhold such amounts and make such tax payments as so required. All Tax Advances made on behalf of a Partner shall be repaid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Partner or, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by so reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Partner. For all purposes of this Agreement such Partner shall be treated as having received the amount of the distribution that is equal to the Tax Advance. Each Partner hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the other Partners from and against any liability (including, without limitation, any liability for taxes, penalties, additions to tax or interest other than any penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed as a result of the Partnership’s failure to withhold or make a tax payment on behalf of such Partner which withholding or payment is required pursuant to applicable law but only to the extent amounts sufficient to pay such taxes were not timely distributed to the Partner pursuant to Section 4.01(b)) with respect to income attributable to or distributions or other payments to such Partner.

Section 5.08 Tax Matters. The General Partner shall be the initial “tax matters partner” within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the “Tax Matters Partner”). The Partnership shall file as a partnership for federal, state and local income tax purposes, except where otherwise required by Law. All elections required or permitted to be made by the Partnership, and all other tax decisions and determinations relating to federal, state or local tax matters of the Partnership, shall be made by the Tax Matters Partner, in consultation with the Partnership’s attorneys and/or accountants. Subject to the Contribution and Exchange Agreement and the Operating Principles, tax audits, controversies and litigations shall be conducted under the direction of the Tax Matters Partner. Subject to the Contribution and Exchange Agreement and the Operating Principles, the Tax Matters Partner shall keep the other Partners reasonably informed as to any tax actions, examinations or proceedings relating to the Partnership and shall submit to the other Partners, for their review and comment, any settlement or compromise offer with respect to any disputed item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Partnership. As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Partnership shall send to each Partner a copy of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Schedule K-1, and any comparable statements required by applicable state or local income tax Law, with respect to such Fiscal Year. The Partnership also shall provide the Partners with such other information as may be reasonably requested for purposes of allowing the Partners to prepare and file their own tax returns. The General Partner shall file (or cause to be filed) an election pursuant to Section 754 for the Partnership and each of the other entities treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which it is the General Partner for the year in which a qualifying transfer or disposition occurs.

Section 5.09 Other Allocation Provisions. Certain of the foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such regulations. Sections 5.03, 5.04 and Section 5.05 may be amended at any time by the General Partner if necessary, in the opinion of the Partnership’s tax advisor, to comply with such regulations, so long as any such amendment does not materially change the relative economic interests of the Partners.

Section 5.10 Section 83(b) Election. Each ISI Partner to whom Unvested Class E Units, Unvested Class G Interests and Unvested Class H Interests are issued shall timely file an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, in respect of such Unvested Class E Units, Unvested Class G Interests and Unvested Class H Interests, as applicable, and shall provide a copy of such election to the Partnership, within thirty (30) days after the date of such election.

PARTNERSHIP UNITS

Section 7.01 Partnership Interests. Interests in the Partnership shall be represented by Units, Interests, such other Class or Classes of equity interests in the Partnership, or such other Partnership securities, as the General Partner may establish in its sole discretion in accordance with the terms hereof. As of the date of this Agreement, there are Class A Units, Class E Units, Class G Interests, and Class H Interests outstanding. The General Partner may establish other Classes of Units, Interests, other equity interests in the Partnership or other Partnership securities from time to time in accordance with such procedures and subject to such conditions and restrictions and with such rights, obligations, powers, designations, preferences and other terms, which may be senior to any then existing or future Classes of Units, Interests, other equity interests in the Partnership or other Partnership securities, as the General Partner shall determine from time to time in its sole discretion, without the vote or consent of any Limited Partner or any other Person, including (i) the right of such Units, Interests, other equity interests or other Partnership securities to share in Profits and Losses or items thereof; (ii) the right of such Units, Interests, other equity interests or other Partnership securities to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the rights of such Units, Interests, other equity interests or other Partnership securities upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Partnership may or shall be required to redeem such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities (including sinking fund provisions); (v) whether such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities are issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange; (vi) the terms and conditions upon which such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned or transferred; (vii) the method for determining the Total Percentage Interest or Vested Percentage Interest as to such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities; (viii) the terms and conditions of the issuance of such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities; and (ix) the right, if any, of the holder of such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities to vote on Partnership matters, including matters relating to the relative designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties of such Units, Interests or other equity interests or other Partnership securities. The General Partner, without the vote or consent of any Limited Partner or any other Person, is authorized (i) to issue any Units, Interests, other equity interests in the Partnership or other Partnership securities of any such newly established Class or any existing Class and (ii) to amend this Agreement to reflect the creation of any such new Class, the issuance of Units, Interests, other equity interests in the Partnership or other Partnership securities associated with such Class, and the admission of any Person as a Limited Partner which has received Units, Interests or other equity interests of any such Class, in accordance with Sections 2.08, 8.09 and Section 11.12(a). Except as expressly provided in this Agreement to the contrary, any reference to “Units” shall include the Class A Units, Class E Units and any other Classes of Units that may be established in accordance with this Agreement, and any reference to “Interests” shall include the Class G Interests, the Class H Interests and any other Classes of Interests that may be established in accordance with this Agreement. All Units or Interests of a particular Class shall have identical rights in all respects as all other Units or Interests of such Class, except, in each case, as otherwise specified in this Agreement.

Section 7.02 Register. The register of the Partnership shall be the definitive record of ownership of each Unit and Interest and all relevant information with respect to each Partner. Unless the General Partner shall determine otherwise, Units and Interests shall be uncertificated and recorded in the books and records of the Partnership.

Section 7.03 Splits, Distributions and Reclassifications. The Partnership shall not in any manner subdivide (by any Unit or Interest split, Unit or Interest distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combine (by reverse Unit or Interest split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) the outstanding Class A Units, Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests unless an identical event is occurring with respect to the Class A Common Stock, in which event the Class A Units, Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests shall be subdivided or combined concurrently with and in the same manner as

the Class A Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.03 shall operate in a manner that is without duplication of any distribution in respect of an Extraordinary Event under Section 4.01(a)(ii).

Section 7.04 Cancellation of Class A Common Stock and Units. At any time a share of Class A Common Stock is redeemed, repurchased, acquired, cancelled or terminated by the General Partner, one (1) Class A Unit registered in the name of the General Partner will automatically be cancelled for no consideration by the Partnership so that the number of Class A Units held by the General Partner at all times equals the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding.

Section 7.05 Incentive Plans. At any time the General Partner issues a share of Class A Common Stock pursuant to an Incentive Plan (whether pursuant to the exercise of a stock option or the grant of a restricted share award or otherwise), the following shall occur: (a) the General Partner shall be deemed to contribute to the capital of the Partnership an amount of cash equal to the current per share market price of a share of Class A Common Stock on the date such share is issued (or, if earlier, the date the related option is exercised) and the Capital Account of the General Partner shall be adjusted accordingly; (b) the Partnership shall be deemed to purchase from the General Partner a share of Class A Common Stock for an amount of cash equal to the amount of cash deemed contributed by the General Partner to the Partnership in clause (a) above (and such share is deemed delivered to its owner under the Incentive Plan); (c) the net proceeds (including the amount of any payments made on a loan with respect to a stock purchase award) received by the General Partner with respect to such share, if any, shall be concurrently transferred and paid to the Partnership (and such net proceeds so transferred shall not constitute a Capital Contribution); and (d) the Partnership shall issue to the General Partner one (1) Class A Unit registered in the name of the General Partner. The Partnership shall retain any net proceeds that are paid directly to the Partnership.

Section 7.06 Offerings of Class A Common Stock. At any time the General Partner issues a share of Class A Common Stock other than pursuant to an Incentive Plan, the net proceeds received by the General Partner with respect to such share, if any, shall be concurrently transferred to the Partnership and the Partnership shall issue to the General Partner one (1) Class A Unit registered in the name of the General Partner.

Section 7.07 Registered Partners. The Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a Person registered on its records as the owner of Units for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the Act.

(ii) all Class G Interests and Class H Interests shall immediately convert into a number of Class E Units, if any, equal to (i) the number of such Class G Interests and Class H Interests, as the case may be, multiplied by (ii) the applicable Early Conversion Ratio, with such Class E Units being deemed Vested Units immediately upon conversion for all purposes of this Agreement (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03; provided, that the Founder Class E Units shall immediately be exchangeable on an Exchange Date following such determination);

Any definitive agreement relating to an Acceleration Trigger Event involving the payment of Deal Consideration to which the General Partner or the Partnership is a party shall provide for the delivery of Deal Consideration in satisfaction of the Partnership’s obligations under this Section 8.01(g).

Section 8.02 Forfeiture of Units and Interests; Treatment Upon Termination.

(a) Except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the General Partner and the applicable Limited Partner:

(i) if the employment of any Limited Partner by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its affiliates, as applicable, terminates for any reason other than such Limited Partner’s death or Disability, such Limited Partner’s Unvested Class A Units shall be immediately forfeited without any consideration, and such Limited Partner shall cease to own or have any rights with respect to such Unvested Class A Units;

(ii) if the employment of any ISI Partner (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Holding, Holding II and the Founder) by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its affiliates, as applicable, terminates for any reason other than in a Qualifying Termination, such ISI Partner’s Unvested Units or Unvested Interests shall be immediately forfeited without any consideration, and such ISI Partner shall cease to own or have any rights with respect to such Unvested Units or Unvested Interests;

(iii) if the employment of any ISI Partner by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its affiliates, as applicable, is terminated without Cause or due to such ISI Partner’s death or Disability (or, with respect to an ISI Partner who is party to an Employment Letter Agreement, if such ISI Partner resigns for Good Reason (as defined in such agreement)) (a “Qualifying Termination”), then:


(A)	such ISI Partner’s Unvested Class E Units shall immediately be deemed Vested Units for all purposes of this Agreement (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03; provided, that the Founder Class E Units shall immediately be exchangeable on an Exchange Date following such Qualifying Termination); and

(B)

such ISI Partner’s Unvested Class G Interests and Unvested Class H Interests shall be immediately forfeited without any consideration, and such ISI Partner shall cease to own or have any rights with respect to such Interests, unless the Executive Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that such ISI Partner’s Unvested Class G Interests and Unvested Class H Interests should not be forfeited, in which case such Class G Interests and Class H Interests shall immediately convert into a number of Class E Units, if any, equal to (i) the number of such Class G Interests and Class H Interests, as the case may be, multiplied by (ii) the applicable Early Conversion Ratio, with such Class E Units being deemed Vested Units immediately upon conversion for all purposes of this Agreement (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03); and

(iv) if the employment of any Limited Partner by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its affiliates, as applicable, terminates for any reason (including without limitation voluntary termination by such Limited Partner), any Vested Class G Interests and Vested Class H Interests held by such Limited Partner shall convert into a number of Class E Units, if any, equal to (i) the number of such Class G Interests and Class H Interests, as the case may be, multiplied by (ii) the applicable Early Conversion Ratio, with such Class E Units being deemed Vested Units immediately upon conversion for all purposes of this Agreement (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03).

(b) Immediately following the forfeiture of any Unvested Class E Units, Unvested Class G Interests or Unvested Class H Interests pursuant to clause (a) above, the Partnership shall cause such forfeited Unvested Units or Interests to be reallocated among the ISI Partners (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner) so that additional Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests are held by the ISI Partners (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partners), as described in the following sentence. As a result of any such reallocation, each ISI Partner (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner and ISI Partners who are no longer eligible for reallocation pursuant to this Section 8.02(b)) shall be reallocated a number of additional Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests, in each case, that is equal to the product of (x) the number of forfeited Unvested Class E Units, forfeited Unvested Class G Interests or forfeited Unvested Class H Interests multiplied by (y) the fraction obtained by dividing the Units or Interests of such class received by such ISI Partner (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner and ISI Partners who are no longer eligible for reallocation pursuant to this Section 8.02(b)) in such ISI Partner’s Initial Allocation, by the total number of the respective class of Units or Interests received by all ISI Partners (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner) in proportion to their respective Initial Allocations; provided, however, that the number of additional Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests reallocated to any ISI Partner (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner) shall be reduced as necessary (unless the Chief Executive Officer of the General Partner and the chairman of the EST Business agree otherwise) to ensure that the aggregate number of additional Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests allocated to any ISI Partner through all reallocations under this Section 8.02(b), together with any Units or Interests allocated to such ISI Partner at Closing pursuant to the last paragraph of Annex A of the Contribution and Exchange Agreement, does not exceed 15% of such ISI Partner’s Initial Allocation of such class of Units or Interests. Any forfeited Unvested Class E Units, forfeited Unvested Class G Interests or forfeited Unvested Class H Interests in excess of the applicable 15% cap shall not be reallocated for the benefit of any Limited Partner. If any ISI Partner (other than any Non-Employed ISI Partner) forfeits Unvested Class E Units, Unvested Class G Interests or Unvested Class H Interests pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above at a time when there is no other ISI Partner that is not a Non-Employed ISI Partner, such forfeited Unvested Class E Units, forfeited Unvested Class G Interests or forfeited Unvested Class H Interests shall revert to the Holding Partners pro rata, subject to the applicable 15% cap described in this

Section 8.02(b). All Interests and Units allocated to an ISI Partner (other than a Holding Partner) pursuant to this Section 8.02(b) shall be Unvested Class E Units, Unvested Class G Interests or Unvested Class H Interests, as the case may be, until such time as such Units or Interests are or become vested pursuant to Section 8.01(d), (e), (f) or (g) as if such Units or Interests were distributed as of the Closing Date or are forfeited pursuant to clause (a) above. All Units or Interests allocated pursuant to this Section 8.02 to any Holding Partner shall be Vested Class E Units, Vested Class G Interests or Vested Class H Interests, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be or become exchangeable as if distributed to the Holding Partners as of the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, a forfeiture of Units or Interests of a particular class shall result in a reallocation of such forfeited Units or Interests in respect of only that class. Any allocation of Units or Interests pursuant to this Section 8.02(b) shall, if requested in writing by the applicable ISI Partner, be made to the Permitted Transferee of such ISI Partner as and to the extent provided in such request.

(c) Upon the forfeiture of any Unvested Units or Interests in accordance with this Section 8.02, the General Partner shall amend the books and records of the Partnership to reflect such forfeiture.

(d) It is intended that no party shall recognize any amount of income, gain, deduction or loss for tax purposes by reason of the operation of this Section 8.02 and the Partnership shall not take any position with any taxing authority or on any tax return that is inconsistent with such tax position and shall cooperate fully with respect to the reporting and defense of such tax position.

Section 8.03 Limited Partner Transfers.

(a) Except as provided in clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 8.03 or in Section 8.05, no Limited Partner or Assignee thereof may Transfer all or any portion of its Units or Interests (or beneficial interest therein) without the prior written consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld, or made subject to such conditions (including, without limitation, the receipt of such legal opinions and other documents that the General Partner may require) as are determined by the General Partner, in each case in the General Partner’s sole discretion. Any purported Transfer of Units or Interests that is not in accordance with, or subsequently violates, this Agreement shall be null and void.

(b) Notwithstanding clause (a) above, and subject to clause (d) below, and except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the General Partner and the applicable Limited Partner, each Limited Partner may exchange Vested Units owned by such Limited Partner for shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to, and in accordance with, Article V of the Certificate of Incorporation or, if the General Partner and the exchanging Limited Partner or Permitted Transferee shall mutually agree, Transfer such Vested Units to the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries for other consideration (in each case, an “Exchange Transaction”). Exchange Transactions and/or Transfers of shares of Class A Common Stock received thereupon pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (b) shall be subject to lock-up periods, if any, imposed by the underwriters of any underwritten public offering of shares of Class A Common Stock no longer than those imposed upon the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, exchanges of Class E Units are subject to the additional limitations and conditions set forth in Section 8.03(d).

(c) Notwithstanding clause (a) above and except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the General Partner and the applicable Limited Partner, (i) after the fifth anniversary of the date of the RLS Subscription Agreement or (ii) upon ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ death, Disability, termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason (as each of Disability, Cause and Good Reason is defined in the RLS Employment Agreement) or a Change in Control (as defined in the General Partner’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan), the RLS Investors (and each Permitted Transferee of the RLS Investors) may Transfer all or a portion of the Units issued pursuant to the RLS Subscription Agreement and owned by the RLS Investors or such Permitted Transferee in an Exchange Transaction.

(d) Notwithstanding clause (b) above, Exchange Transactions are subject to the following additional limitations and conditions:

(i) Exchanges of Class E Units for shares of Class A Common Stock shall occur only on an Exchange Date (unless the General Partner shall agree in writing otherwise and subject to the General Partner’s mandatory exchange right in clause (iii) below) as follows:


(a)	Vested Class E Units that are Non-Founder Class E Units may be exchanged for Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date occurring on or after the date on which they become vested pursuant to Section 8.01(d);


(b)	40% of the Founder Class E Units delivered to each of the Holding Partners on the Closing Date may be exchanged into shares of Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date following the Closing;


(c)	20% of the Founder Class E Units delivered to each of the Holding Partners on the Closing Date may be exchanged into shares of Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date following the first anniversary date of the Closing;


(d)	20% of the Founder Class E Units delivered to each of the Holding Partners on the Closing Date may be exchanged into shares of Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date following the second anniversary date of the Closing;


(e)	20% of the Founder Class E Units delivered to each of the Holding Partners on the Closing Date may be exchanged into shares of Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date following the third anniversary date of the Closing; and


(f)	Class E Units delivered upon conversion of Class G Interests and Class H Interests pursuant to Section 8.03 may be exchanged into shares of Class A Common Stock only on an Exchange Date following their delivery.

(ii) The General Partner shall determine each Exchange Date in its sole discretion, consistent with the definition thereof; provided, that only one Exchange Date shall occur in each fiscal quarter of the General Partner. In order to effect an exchange of Class E Units on an Exchange Date, a Partner must notify the General Partner in writing of the number of Units that it desires to exchange on such Exchange Date at least 60 calendar days prior to such Exchange Date and must otherwise satisfy all reasonable conditions (including, without limitation, the receipt of such legal opinions and other documents that the General Partner may require) as are determined by the General Partner, in each case in the General Partner’s sole discretion.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner shall have the right, in its sole discretion, whether or not on an Exchange Date, to cause all of the Class E Units held by any Non-Employed ISI Partner to be exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock if, at that time, (a) the General Partner reasonably believes that such Non-Employed ISI Partner is competing with, or is employed by or providing services to an entity that is competing with, any business conducted by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries; (b) the Non-Employed ISI Partner holds less than 15% of the Class E Units previously delivered to such ISI Partner; (c) all Class E Units held by ISI Partners are held by Non-Employed ISI Partners; or (d) all ISI Partners in the aggregate hold less than 15% of the Class E Units previously delivered to all ISI Partners in the aggregate; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (c) and (d) the right to cause an exchange shall not apply to an ISI Partner whose termination of employment was, in the reasonable judgment of the General Partner, due to retirement and who is not competing with, or employed by or providing services to an entity that is competing with, any business conducted by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries.

(iv) The exchange of Class E Units into shares of Class A Common Stock (other than any Class E Units received upon conversion of Class G Interests or Class H Interests) shall be subject to Section 10.7 of the Contribution and Exchange Agreement.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Partnership Agreement, the Partnership shall have the right, in its discretion acting reasonably and in good faith, following ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the applicable Partners, to deliver alternative consideration in lieu of some or all of the shares of Class A Common Stock otherwise deliverable to a Partner in any Exchange Transaction to the extent that the Partnership determines, in its reasonable discretion upon the reasonable advice of its external counsel, that there is a significant risk that delivery of such shares of Class A Common Stock, together with all other Exchange Transactions occurring on the same Exchange Date, would require any Partner, the Partnership, the General Partner or any of their respective affiliates to give notice to, or obtain approval from, any governmental organization or any agency or political subdivision, including without limitation notice to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency pursuant to 12 C.F.R. §5.50. The value of the alternative consideration delivered shall be equal to the Market Price of the Class A Common Stock as of the Exchange Date multiplied by the number of shares of Class A Common Stock in lieu of which the alternative consideration is being delivered (the “Alternative Consideration Amount”) and shall be in the form of either cash, freely marketable securities or other freely marketable property, or a senior unsubordinated debt instrument or loan guaranteed by the General Partner with a term of six months or less. In determining the form and terms of such alternative consideration, the Partnership will use its reasonable efforts to take into account the tax and financial reporting consequences to the Limited Partners and the Partnership and its Affiliates. The Executive Committee will have the right to cause a third party valuation firm reasonably acceptable to the Executive Committee and the General Partner to determine the value of such alternative consideration (including any liquidity discount) and the value determined by such third party valuation firm shall be binding upon the General Partner, the Partnership and the applicable Partner. If such third party valuation firm determines that the value of such alternative consideration is less than the Alternative Consideration Amount, then the Partnership shall promptly deliver to the applicable Partner additional alternative consideration with a value equal to the difference between the value of the alternative consideration as determined by the third party valuation firm and the Alternative Consideration Amount.

(e) Except as provided in Section 8.05, no Limited Partner or Assignee thereof may Transfer all or any portion of the Class G Interests or Class H Interests (or beneficial interest therein) without the prior written consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld, or made subject to such conditions (including, without limitation, the receipt of such legal opinions and other documents that the General Partner may require) as are determined by the General Partner, in each case in the General Partner’s sole discretion. Any purported Transfer of Interests that is not in accordance with, or subsequently violates, this Agreement shall be null and void.

(f) Except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the General Partner and the applicable Partner, and subject to earlier conversion under Section 8.01(g) or Section 8.02(a)(iii), Class G Interests will automatically convert into a number of Class E Units on February 15 of each of 2016, 2017 and 2018 (the “Class G Conversion Dates”), as follows (with interest and Unit amounts rounded to the nearest whole number):

(i) On February 15, 2016, one third of the Class G Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class G Interests being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class G Conversion Ratio for such Class G Conversion Date;

(ii) On February 15, 2017, one half of the remaining Class G Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class G Interests being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class G Conversion Ratio for such Class G Conversion Date;

(iii) On February 15, 2018, all of the remaining Class G Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class G Interests being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class G Conversion Ratio for such Class G Conversion Date; provided, however, that if and only if the Class G Catchup Condition is satisfied, then the product of (a) and (b) above shall be further multiplied by (1) 300% if no Class E Units were delivered under clause (i) above and no Class E Units were delivered under clause (ii) above; (2) 200% if Class E Units were delivered under clause (i) above or clause (ii) above but not both; or (3) 100% if Class E Units were delivered under both clauses (i) and (ii) above.

(g) Except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the General Partner and the applicable Partner and subject to earlier conversion under Section 8.01(g) or Section 8.02(a)(iii) Class H Interests will automatically convert into a number of Class E Units on February 15 of each of 2018, 2019 and 2020 (the “Class H Conversion Dates”), as follows (with Unit amounts rounded to the nearest whole number):

(i) On February 15, 2018, one third of the Class H Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class H Interests being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class H First Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date, multiplied by (c) the Class H Second Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date;

(ii) On February 15, 2019, one half of the remaining Class H Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class H Interests being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class H First Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date, multiplied by (c) the Class H Second Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date;

(iii) On February 15, 2020, all of the remaining Class H Interests held by each Partner as of such date shall convert into Class E Units, with the number of Class E Units, if any, to be received by a Partner equal to (a) the number of such Partner’s Class H Interests, held on behalf of the Founder, being converted, multiplied by (b) the Class H First Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date, multiplied by (c) the Class H Second Conversion Ratio for such Class H Conversion Date.

(h) Notwithstanding Sections 8.03(f) and (g) above, the Class G Interests or Class H Interests shall not convert into Class E Units if the General Partner determines in good faith upon obtaining the reasonable advice of its external counsel that such conversion is prohibited by applicable Law; provided, that the General Partner and the Partnership shall, at their sole cost and expense, use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause such prohibition to be removed and take all actions (including making any petitions, inquiries or filings with governmental entities to remove such prohibition) as are necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Immediately following the removal of such prohibition, Class G Interests or Class H Interests shall convert into Class E Units to the extent otherwise provided pursuant to Sections 8.03(f) and (g) above. If a holder of Class G Interests or Class H Interests is unable to convert such holder’s Class G Interests or Class H Interests for Class E Units as a result of such prohibition, to the extent such holder requests in writing to the Partnership, the Partnership shall redeem such portion indicated in such request of the Class G Interests or Class H Interests, as applicable, that are subject to such prohibition, in exchange for alternative consideration, the value of which shall be equal to the Market Price of the Class A Common Stock as of the Exchange Date immediately following the date on which such Class G Interests or Class H Interests would have been convertible into Class E Units pursuant to this Section 8.03 multiplied by the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which the Class E Units that the applicable Class G Interests or Class H Interests would have been convertible into but for such prohibition would be exchangeable in an Exchange Transaction (the “Restriction Alternative Consideration Amount”), and which alternative consideration shall be in the form of either cash, freely marketable securities or other freely marketable property, or a senior unsubordinated debt instrument or loan guaranteed by the General Partner with a term of six months or less. The Executive Committee will have the right to cause a third party valuation firm reasonably acceptable to the Executive Committee and the General Partner to determine the value of such alternative consideration and the value determined by such third party valuation firm shall be binding upon the General Partner, the Partnership and the applicable Partner. If such third party valuation firm determines that the value of such alternative consideration is less than the Restriction Alternative Consideration Amount, then the Partnership shall deliver to the applicable Partner additional alternative consideration with a value equal to the difference between the value of the alternative consideration as determined by the third party valuation firm and the

Restriction Alternative Consideration Amount. As promptly as practicable following the conversion of Interests or payment of alternative consideration in lieu of such conversion in the manner provided herein, the books and records of the Partnership shall be amended to reflect the issuance of Class E Units, if any, and the cancellation of the Class G Interests and Class H Interests so converted or in respect of which a payment of alternative consideration has been made. Upon the conversion date or payment of alternative consideration with respect to Class G Interests or Class H Interests, such interests shall cease to be outstanding without further action on the part of any person, and all rights of the holder of such interests as such holder shall cease.

Section 8.04 Related Persons. With respect to each Limited Partner that holds Units or Interests by virtue of being a Family Trust or Family Member (or other permitted transferee or holding entity of Units or Interests hereunder) of a Related Person (including, in the case of the Founder, each Holding Partner), any reference to an employment agreement or other employment-related matter with respect to such Limited Partner (including the event of any termination of employment) shall be deemed to refer to such Limited Partner’s Related Person.

Section 8.05 Permitted Transferees. Notwithstanding clause (a) of Section 8.03 and subject to Section 8.07, subject to the policies and procedures that the General Partner may promulgate from time to time in its sole discretion, each Limited Partner may:

(i) Transfer all or a portion of the Vested Units or Vested Interests owned by such Limited Partner to a Family Trust or, in the case of Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests, a Family Member or Family Trust of such Limited Partner or its Related Person for estate or tax planning purposes, provided that any Vested Units or Vested Interests so Transferred remain subject to the same restrictions on Transfer to which such Units or Interests would be subject if such Units or Interests had not been so Transferred;

(ii) Transfer as a gratuitous transfer to one or more Charities Vested Class A Units that are permitted to be Transferred by such Limited Partner in an Exchange Transaction pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of Section 8.03;

(iii) in any calendar year, Transfer as a gratuitous transfer to one or more Charities an aggregate number of Vested Class A Units that does not exceed the product of (A).10 multiplied by (B) the number of Vested Class A Units owned by such Limited Partner as of the first day of such calendar year that were not as of such day permitted to be Transferred in an Exchange Transaction pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of Section 8.03; and

(iv) Transfer by Holding II to Holding, including by merger of Holding II into Holding or a liquidation of Holding II.

Any Family Trust, or in the case of Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests, a Family Member or Family Trust, Charity or any other Person to which Vested Units or Vested Interests are Transferred by a Limited Partner or their Related Persons in accordance with this Section 8.05, are referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee” of such Limited Partner or its Related Person. Any Charity that receives Vested Units or Vested Interests in accordance with this Section 8.05 may Transfer such Vested Units or Vested Interests in an Exchange Transaction at any time if such Charity has agreed in writing that any Transfers of shares of Class A Common Stock received thereupon shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in the final sentence of clause (b) of Section 8.03. Before any Transfer of Vested Units or Vested Interests by any Limited Partner (or any Permitted Transferee of any Limited Partner) except Transfers by a Charity in an Exchange Transaction in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the proposed transferee of such Vested Units or Vested Interests must enter into a written acknowledgement and agreement with the General Partner and the Partnership that such transferee will receive such Vested Units or Vested Interests subject to, and such transferee will be bound by, the transfer restrictions set forth in this Article 8. Furthermore, before any Permitted Transferee ceases to be a Permitted Transferee of the relevant Limited Partner, it shall transfer full legal and beneficial ownership of such Vested Units or Vested Interests back to the relevant Limited Partner or, subject to this Article VIII, another Permitted Transferee of the relevant Limited Partner or, if such Permitted Transferee is a Charity, in an Exchange Transaction in accordance with the second preceding sentence. Each of the Holding Partners shall be permitted to Transfer its Units or Interests to the any stockholder of Holding or Holding II, as applicable, as of the date hereof, any Permitted Transferee of such stockholder of Holding or Holding II, as applicable, and any successor entity of Holding or Holding II, as applicable. The rights and obligations of Holding or Holding II, as applicable, hereunder shall be transferred to any such Transferee of Holding’s or Holding II’s Units or Interests, as applicable.

Section 8.06 Encumbrances. No Limited Partner or Assignee may create an Encumbrance with respect to all or any portion of its Units or Interests (or any beneficial interest therein) unless the General Partner consents in writing thereto, which consent may be given or withheld, or made subject to such conditions as are determined by the General Partner, in the General Partner’s sole discretion. Any purported Encumbrance that is not in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void.

Section 8.07 Further Restrictions. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, in no event may any Transfer of a Unit, Interest or other interest in the Partnership be made by any Limited Partner or Assignee if:

(a) such Transfer is made to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own such Unit, Interest or other interest in the Partnership;

(b) such Transfer would require the registration of such transferred Unit, Interest or other interest in the Partnership or of any class of Unit, Interest or other interest in the Partnership pursuant to any applicable United States federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) or other foreign securities laws or would constitute a non-exempt distribution pursuant to applicable state securities laws;

(c) such Transfer would cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to the regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor at Section 2510.3-101 of Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or any successor regulations;

(d) such Transfer would cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to become “plan assets” of any benefit plan investor within the meaning of regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor at Section 2510.3-101 of Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, or any successor regulations, or to be regulated under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time; or

(e) to the extent requested by the General Partner, the Partnership does not receive such legal and/or tax opinions and written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as an Assignee) that are in a form satisfactory to the General Partner, as determined in the General Partner’s sole discretion.

In addition, notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, to the extent the General Partner shall determine that interests in the Partnership do not meet the requirements of Treas. Reg. section 1.7704-1(h), the General Partner may impose such restrictions on Transfer of interests in the Partnership as the General Partner may determine to be necessary or advisable so that the Partnership is not treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation under Section 7704 of the Code. Any restrictions on Transfer imposed pursuant to the foregoing shall apply to all holders of Units, all holders of Interests and all holders of other interests equally, to the extent applicable.

Section 8.08 Rights of Assignees. Subject to Section 8.07, the transferee of any permitted Transfer pursuant to this Article VIII (other than a Transfer in an Exchange Transaction) will be an assignee only (“Assignee”), and only will receive, to the extent Transferred, the distributions and allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or similar item to which the Partner which Transferred its Units or Interests would be entitled, and such Assignee will not be entitled or enabled to exercise any other rights or powers of a Partner, such other rights, and all obligations relating to, or in connection with, such interest in the Partnership remaining with the transferring Partner. The transferring Partner will remain a Partner even if it has Transferred all of its Units or Interests to one or more Assignees until such time as the Assignee(s) is admitted to the Partnership as a Partner pursuant to Section 8.10.

Section 8.09 Admissions, Withdrawals and Removals. The General Partner may admit any Person as an additional Limited Partner upon such terms and conditions, including, without limitation, such Person’s consent to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in its capacity as a Limited Partner, as are determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion. No Person may be admitted to the Partnership as an additional General Partner or substitute General Partner without the prior written consent or ratification by Partners whose Percentage Interests exceed 50% of the Vested Percentage Interests of the Partners, and each Limited Partner agrees to provide a written consent or ratification to such admission of substitution as requested by the General Partner. No Limited Partner will be removed or entitled to withdraw from being a Partner of the Partnership except in accordance with Section 8.11. A General Partner will not be entitled to Transfer all of its Units or to withdraw from being a General Partner of the Partnership unless another General Partner shall have been admitted hereunder (and not have previously been removed or withdrawn). Except as otherwise provided in Article IX, no admission, substitution, withdrawal or removal of a Partner will cause the dissolution of the Partnership. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any purported admission, withdrawal or removal that is not in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void.

Section 8.10 Admission of Assignees as Substitute Limited Partners. An Assignee will become a substitute Limited Partner only if and when each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(a) the General Partner consents in writing to such admission, which consent may be given or withheld, or made subject to such conditions as are determined by the General Partner, in each case in the General Partner’s sole discretion;

(b) if required by the General Partner, the General Partner receives written instruments (including, without limitation, copies of any instruments of Transfer and such Assignee’s consent to be bound by this Agreement as a substitute Limited Partner) that are in a form satisfactory to the General Partner (as determined in its sole discretion);

(c) if required by the General Partner, the General Partner receives an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the General Partner to the effect that such Transfer is in compliance with this Agreement and all applicable laws; and

(d) if required by the General Partner, the parties to the Transfer, or any one of them, pays all of the Partnership’s reasonable expenses connected with such Transfer (including, but not limited to, the reasonable legal and accounting fees of the Partnership).

Section 8.11 Withdrawal of Certain Partners. If a Partner ceases to hold any Units, Interests or other equity interests, then such Partner shall withdraw from the Partnership and shall cease to be a Partner and to have the power to exercise any rights or powers of a Partner when all of such Partner’s Assignees have been admitted as Partners in accordance with Section 8.10.

Section 8.12 Partnership’s Right to Purchase. If ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ employment with the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries is terminated by the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries for Cause (as such term is defined in the RLS Employment Agreement) or if ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ resigns without Good Reason (as such term is defined in the RLS Employment Agreement), then the Partnership shall have the right and option, exercisable by written notice to the RLS Investors within 90 days following such termination or resignation, to purchase any or all Units then held by the RLS Investors (and each Permitted Transferee of the RLS Investors) at a price per Unit equal to Fair Market Value. For the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership’s purchase right described in this Section 8.12 shall not apply in the case of the termination of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ employment due to death, Disability, termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason (as each of Disability, Cause and Good Reason is defined in the RLS Employment Agreement). If the Partnership delivers such a notice to an RLS Investor (or a Permitted Transferee of an RLS Investor) pursuant to this Section 8.12, the settlement date for the purchase notified therein shall be on the 60th day following the date of such notice (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day thereafter); provided, however, that if such notice is delivered pursuant clause (b) of this Section 8.12, then such RLS Investor (or such Permitted Transferee of such RLS Investor) may elect to exchange the Units subject to such notice for shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to, and in accordance with, Article V of the Certificate of Incorporation or, if the General Partner and such RLS Investor or Permitted Transferee shall mutually agree, Transfer such Units to the General Partner, the Partnership or any of its subsidiaries for other consideration, at any time during the first 30 days following the Partnership’s delivery of such purchase notice, and, for the avoidance of doubt, Units so exchanged will no longer be subject to purchase by the Partnership.

For purposes of this Section 8.12, “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banks in the City of New York are authorized or obligated by law to close.

For purposes of this Section 8.12, “Fair Market Value” shall be based on the price at which all of the business and assets, subject to all of the liabilities, of the General Partner would likely be sold in an arm’s-length transaction between a willing and able buyer under no compulsion to buy and a willing and able seller under no compulsion to sell, and such buyer and seller being apprised of and considering all relevant facts, circumstances and factors, and shall mean the Market Price.

For purposes of this Section 8.12, the “Market Price” shall mean, on a given date, (i) if there should be a public market for the Class A Common Stock on such date, the average of the arithmetic means of the high and low prices of a share of Class A Common Stock as reported on such date by the principal national securities exchange on which such shares are listed or admitted to trading, or, if the shares are not listed or admitted on any national securities exchange, the average of the arithmetic means of the per share closing bid price and per share closing asked price, in each case, over the 10 trading days immediately preceding and including such date as quoted on the primary market in which such prices are regularly quoted, or, if no sale of shares shall have been reported by any national securities exchange or quoted on such other primary market on such date, then over the 10 trading days immediately preceding and including the immediately preceding date on which sales of the shares have been so reported or quoted shall be used, and (ii) if there should not be a public market for the shares on such date, the Market Price shall be the per share value of a share of Class A Common Stock established by the Committee in good faith based on the price at which all of the business and assets, subject to all of the liabilities, of the General Partner would likely be sold in an arm’s-length transaction between a willing and able buyer under no compulsion to buy and a willing and able seller under no compulsion to sell, and such buyer and seller being apprised of and considering all relevant facts, circumstances and factors.

Section 9.03 Distribution upon Dissolution.

(a) Upon dissolution, the Partnership shall not be terminated and shall continue until the winding up of the affairs of the Partnership is completed. Upon the winding up of the Partnership, the General Partner, or any other Person designated by the General Partner (the “Liquidation Agent”), shall take full account of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership and shall, unless the General Partner determines otherwise, liquidate the assets of the Partnership as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof. Upon the dissolution of the Partnership, the assets of the Partnership shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(i) First, to the satisfaction of debts and liabilities of the Partnership (including payment of all indebtedness to Partners and/or their Affiliates to the extent otherwise permitted by law), including the expenses of liquidation, by payment or by making reasonable provision for payment, including through the establishment of any reserve which the Liquidation Agent shall deem reasonably necessary for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Partnership (“Contingencies”). Such reserve may be paid over by the Liquidation Agent to any attorney-at-law, or acceptable party, as escrow agent, to be held for disbursement in payment of any Contingencies and, at the expiration of such period as shall be deemed advisable by the Liquidation Agent for application of the balance in the manner provided in this Section 9.03; and

(ii) the balance, if any, shall be applied and distributed in accordance with Section 4.01.

(b) Distribution Upon Dissolution Solely in Respect of Vested Units. Upon dissolution of the Partnership, the Partners shall be entitled to distributions solely in respect of any Vested Units held by such Partner at such time. Immediately upon dissolution of the Partnership, all Unvested Class E Units shall immediately be deemed vested and all outstanding Class G Interests and Class H Interests shall immediately be converted into Class E Units, in which case, (i) all Class E Units shall immediately be deemed Vested Class E Units for all purposes of this Agreement (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03; provided, that the Founder Class E Units shall immediately be exchangeable on an Exchange Date following such dissolution), (ii) the Partnership shall distribute pursuant to Section 9.03(a)(ii) an amount equal to the operating income of the Partnership for such calendar year that has not previously been distributed, and (ii) all Class G Interests and Class H Interests shall then immediately convert into a number of Class E Units equal to (x) the number of such Class G Interests and Class H Interests, as the case may be, multiplied by (y) the applicable Early Conversion Ratio, with such Class E Units being deemed Vested Units immediately upon conversion for all purposes of this Agreement, (subject, however, to the same limitations and conditions on exchange set forth in Section 8.03).

Section 9.04 Time for Liquidation. A reasonable amount of time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Partnership and the discharge of liabilities to creditors so as to enable the Liquidation Agent to minimize the losses attendant upon such liquidation.

Section 9.05 Termination. The Partnership shall terminate when all of the assets of the Partnership, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership, shall have been distributed to the Partners in the manner provided for in this Article IX, and the Certificate shall have been cancelled in the manner required by the Act.

Section 9.06 Claims of the Partners. The Partners shall look solely to the Partnership’s assets for the return of their Capital Contributions, and if the assets of the Partnership remaining after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Partnership are insufficient to return such Capital Contributions, the Partners shall have no recourse against the Partnership or any other Partner or any other Person. No Partner with a negative balance in such Partner’s Capital Account shall have any obligation to the Partnership or to the other Partners or to any creditor or other Person to restore such negative balance during the existence of the Partnership, upon dissolution or termination of the Partnership or otherwise.

Section 9.07 Survival of Certain Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of Section 10.02 and Section 11.09 shall survive the termination of the Partnership.

ARTICLE X

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any duty otherwise existing at law, in equity or otherwise, the parties hereby agree that the General Partner and its Affiliates, shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, including Section 17-1101(d) of the Act, owe no duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Partnership, the other Partners or any other Person bound by this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 10.01(b) shall eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(c) To the extent that, at law or in equity, any Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Partnership or to another Partner, the Partners (including without limitation, the General Partner) acting under this Agreement will not be liable to the Partnership or to any such other Partner for their good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they expand or restrict the duties and liabilities of any Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Partners to modify to that extent such other duties and liabilities of the Partners (including without limitation, the General Partner).

(d) The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants and financial or other advisors and any act or omission suffered or taken by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or in furtherance of the interests of the Partnership in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or financial or other advisors will be full justification for any such act or omission, and the General Partner will be fully protected in so acting or omitting to act so long as such counsel or accountants or financial or other advisors were selected with reasonable care.

Section 10.02 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership shall indemnify any person (and such person’s heirs, executors or administrators) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (brought in the right of the Partnership or otherwise), whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal, including appeals, by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person was the legal representative, is or was a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or a director, officer or agent of a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or the Partnership or, while a director, officer or agent of a Partner (including without limitation, the General Partner) or the Partnership, is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, limited liability company, nonprofit entity or other enterprise, for and against all loss and liability suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by such person or such heirs, executors or administrators in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, including appeals; provided, that such person shall not be entitled to indemnification

hereunder only to the extent such person’s conduct constituted fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02(c), the Partnership shall be required to indemnify a person described in such sentence in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such person only if the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by such person was authorized by the General Partner.

(b) Advancement of Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership shall promptly pay expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by any person described in Section 10.02(a) in appearing at, participating in or defending any action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, including appeals, upon presentation of an undertaking on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 10.02 or otherwise. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02(c), the Partnership shall be required to pay expenses of a person described in such sentence in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such person only if the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by such person was authorized by the General Partner.

(c) Unpaid Claims. If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this Section 10.02 is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim therefor by any person described in Section 10.02(a) has been received by the Partnership, such person may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Partnership shall have the burden of proving that such person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

(d) Insurance. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person described in Section 10.02(a) against any liability asserted against such person, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Section 10.02 or otherwise.

(e) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The provisions of this Section 10.02 shall be applicable to all actions, claims, suits or proceedings made or commenced after the date of this Agreement, whether arising from acts or omissions to act occurring before or after its adoption. The provisions of this Section 10.02 shall be deemed to be a contract between the Partnership and each person entitled to indemnification under this Section 10.02 (or legal representative thereof) who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 10.02 and the relevant provisions of applicable law, if any, are in effect, and any amendment, modification or repeal hereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or any action, suit or proceeding then or theretofore existing, or any action, suit or proceeding thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part on any such state of facts. If any provision of this Section 10.02 shall be found to be invalid or limited in application by reason of any law or regulation, it shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions hereof. The rights of indemnification provided in this Section 10.02 shall neither be exclusive of, nor be deemed in limitation of, any rights to which any person may otherwise be or become entitled or permitted by contract, this Partnership Agreement or as a matter of law, both as to actions in such person’s official capacity and actions in any other capacity, it being the policy of the Partnership that indemnification of any person whom the Partnership is obligated to indemnify pursuant to Section 10.02(a) shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law.

For purposes of this Section 10.02, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Partnership” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries.

This Section 10.02 shall not limit the right of the Partnership, to the extent and in the manner permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to, and purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of, persons other than persons described in Section 10.02(a).

(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party to this Agreement, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in New York in accordance with the then existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. If the parties to the dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the International Chamber of Commerce shall make the appointment. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer and shall conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), the General Partner may bring, or may cause the Partnership to bring, on behalf of the General Partner or the Partnership or on behalf of one or more Partners, an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Partner (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 11.10 to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate, and (iii) irrevocably appoints the General Partner as such Partner’s agent for service of process in connection with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service of process upon such agent, who shall promptly advise such Partner of any such service of process, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Partner in any such action or proceeding.

Section 11.12 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) This Agreement (including the Annexes hereto) may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified by the written consent of the General Partner; provided, that any amendment that would have a material adverse effect on the rights or preferences of any Class of Units in relation to other Classes must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Vested Percentage Interests of the Class affected; provided, further, however, that the General Partner may, without the written consent of any Limited Partner or any other Person, amend, supplement, waive or modify any provision of this Agreement and execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record whatever documents may be required in connection therewith, to reflect: (i) any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the creation, authorization or issuance of any Class of Units or other equity interests in the Partnership or other Partnership securities in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) the admission, substitution, withdrawal or removal of Partners in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) a change in the name of the Partnership, the location of the principal place of business of the Partnership, the registered agent of the Partnership or the registered office of the Partnership; (iv) any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification that the General Partner determines in its sole discretion to be necessary or appropriate to address changes in U.S. federal income tax regulations, legislation or interpretation; or (v) a change in the Fiscal Year or taxable year of the Partnership and any other changes that the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate as a result of a change in the Fiscal Year or taxable year of the Partnership including a change in the dates on which distributions are to be made by the Partnership; provided, further, that the books and records of the Partnership shall be deemed amended from time to time to reflect the admission of a new Partner, the withdrawal or resignation of a Partner, the adjustment of the Units resulting from any forfeiture and reallocation of Unvested Units, the vesting of Unvested Units, and the adjustment of the Units resulting from any Transfer or other disposition of a Unit, in each case that is made in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, further, that all Limited Partners shall be deemed to have provided their consent or ratification to any amendment, if such amendment has been approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Vested Percentage Interest of the Class affected.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder (other than a failure or delay beyond a period of time specified herein) shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the fullest extent permissible by Law, (i) the Class A Units and the Class E Units shall be deemed a single Class of Units for purposes of clause (a) above and for all other purposes for which the consent of a class or group of partnership interests may be required under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, at Law, in equity or otherwise, and in no event shall holders of the Class E Units, as such, be entitled to consent on any matter as a separate class or group of partnership interests or Partners, except that any amendment to or waiver (including an amendment effected by means of a merger or consolidation) of Sections 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.07, 9.03, 11.12(c), 11.17 or Article IV or Article V of this Agreement or the definitions related thereto that would explicitly (including by explicit exception), disproportionately and adversely affect the specific rights, preferences, privileges and interests of the Class E Units specified in such sections (in relation to any other class of Units after taking into account or giving effect to the relative rights, preferences, privileges and interests of such other class of Units) hereunder in any material respect, must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Class E Units; (ii) the holders of Class G Interests and Class H Interests, as such, shall not be entitled to consent, either as a separate class or otherwise, on any matter involving or relating to the Partnership, except that any amendment to or waiver (including an amendment effected by means of a merger or consolidation) of Sections 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.07, 9.03, 11.12(c), 11.17 or Article IV or Article V of this Agreement or the definitions related thereto that would explicitly (including by explicit exception), disproportionately and adversely affect the specific rights, preferences, privileges and interests of the Class G Interests or the Class H Interests specified in such sections (in relation to any other class of Units or interests after taking into account or giving effect to the relative rights, preferences, privileges and interests of such other class of Units or interests) hereunder in any material respect, must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Class G Interests or Class H Interests, as applicable; and (iii) any amendment to or waiver (including an amendment effected by means of a merger or consolidation) of Section 3.02 or the Operating Principles must be approved in writing by the Executive Committee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment or waiver (including an amendment effected by means of a merger or consolidation) that would alter the rights of the Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests to exchange partnership interests for Class A Common Stock (e.g., the ability to exchange for Class A Common Stock, the ability to convert into Class E Units, the conversion ratios or conversion or exchange mechanics) must be approved by the holders of not less than a majority of the Class E Units, Class G Interests or Class H Interests, as the case may be, so affected by such amendment or waiver.

(d) The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, unilaterally amend this Agreement on or before the effective date of the final regulations to provide for (i) the election of a safe harbor under Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-3(l) (or any similar provision) under which the fair market value of a partnership interest that is transferred is treated as being equal to the liquidation value of that interest, (ii) an agreement by the Partnership and each of its Partners to comply with all of the requirements set forth in such regulations and Notice 2005-43 (and any other guidance provided by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to such election) with respect to all partnership interests transferred in connection with the performance of services while the election remains effective, (iii) the allocation of items of income, gains, deductions and losses required by the final regulations similar to Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(xii)(b) and (c), and (iv) any other related amendments.

(e) Except as may be otherwise required by law in connection with the winding-up, liquidation, or dissolution of the Partnership, each Partner hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights that it may have to maintain an action for judicial accounting or for partition of any of the Partnership’s property.

(f) In the event of a property settlement or separation agreement between a Limited Partner and his or her spouse, such Limited Partner agrees that he or she shall use reasonable efforts to retain all of his or her Units or Interests and shall reimburse his or her spouse for any interest he or she may have in the Partnership out of funds, assets or proceeds separate and distinct from his or her interest in the Partnership. To the extent that such Limited Partner is unable, despite his or her exercise of reasonable efforts, to retain all of his or her Units or Interests, such Limited Partner shall use reasonable efforts to transfer to his or her spouse only the economic interests of such Limited Partner’s Units or Interests, retaining for himself or herself all voting rights relating to his or her Units or Interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a spouse or former spouse of a Limited Partner acquires any Units or Interests as a registered owner as a result of any such proposed settlement or separation agreement, such spouse or former spouse shall be entitled only to allocation and distributions with respect to his or her Units or Interests and shall have no right to vote his or her Units or Interests, to participate in the management of the Partnership or to any accounting or information concerning the affairs of the Partnership and shall not have any other rights of a Partner under this Agreement.

Section 11.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, any obligation of the Partners to make Capital Contributions to the Partnership under this Agreement is an agreement only between the Partners and no other person or entity, including the Partnership, shall have any rights to enforce such obligations.

Section 11.14 Headings. The headings and subheadings in this Agreement are included for convenience and identification only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 11.15 Construction. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees it has had the opportunity to draft, review and edit the language of this Agreement and that no presumption for or against any party arising out of drafting all or any part of this Agreement will be applied in any dispute relating to, in connection with or involving this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties hereby waive the benefit of any rule of Law or any legal decision that would require that in cases of uncertainty, the language of a contract should be interpreted most strongly against the party who drafted such language.

Section 11.16 Power of Attorney. Each Limited Partner, by its execution hereof, hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the General Partner as its true and lawful agent and attorney in fact, with full power of substitution and full power and authority in its name, place and stead, to make, execute, sign, acknowledge, swear to, record and file (a) this Agreement and any amendment to this Agreement that has been adopted as herein provided; (b) the original certificate of limited partnership of the Partnership and all amendments thereto required or permitted by law or the provisions of this Agreement; (c) all certificates and other instruments (including consents and ratifications which the Limited Partners have agreed to provide upon a matter receiving the agreed support of Limited Partners) deemed advisable by the General Partner to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and Law or to permit the Partnership to become or to continue as a limited partnership or partnership wherein the Limited Partners have limited liability in each jurisdiction where the Partnership may be doing business; (d) all instruments that the General Partner deems appropriate to reflect a change or modification of this Agreement or the Partnership in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, the admission of additional Limited Partners or substituted Limited Partners pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (e) all conveyances and other instruments or papers deemed advisable by the General Partner to effect the liquidation and termination of the Partnership; and (f) all fictitious or assumed name certificates required or permitted (in light of the Partnership’s activities) to be filed on behalf of the Partnership.

Section 11.17 Partnership Status. The parties intend to treat the Partnership as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 11.18 Separate Agreements; Schedules. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including Section 11.12, the General Partner may, or may cause the Partnership to, without the approval of any Limited Partner or other Person, enter into separate agreements with individual Limited Partners with respect to any matter, which have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering, supplementing or amending the terms of, this Agreement or of any subscription agreement. The parties hereto agree that any terms contained in any such separate agreement shall govern with respect to such Limited Partner(s) party thereto notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement or of any subscription agreement. The General Partner may from time to time execute and deliver to Limited Partners schedules which set forth information contained in the books and records of the Partnership and any other matters deemed appropriate by the General Partner. Such schedules shall be for information purposes only and shall not be deemed to be part of this Agreement for any purpose whatsoever.

Section 11.19 Admission of Limited Partners at Closing. On the Closing Date, each ISI Partner will be admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner with respect to the Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests held by such ISI Partner and the books and records of the Partnership shall be amended to reflect the issuance of Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests, to list the Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests as Vested or Unvested and reflect the admission of each ISI Partner as a Limited Partner (subject in all cases to the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 11.12(c)). For the avoidance of doubt the ownership of Class E Units, Class G Interests and Class H Interests does not provide any right to receive, or voting rights with respect to, shares of Class B Common Stock of the General Partner.

Section 11.20 Effectiveness. This Agreement, and the amendment and restatement of the Original Agreement effected hereby, shall take effect immediately, and without any further action by any Person, only upon the Closing (as defined in the Contribution and Exchange Agreement). Prior to the Closing, the Original Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms. Any ISI Partner (other than a Holding Partner), all the Management Holdings Management Units of whom are forfeited prior to the Closing as a result of the termination of such ISI Partner’s employment with a Transferred Company prior to the Closing, shall automatically cease to be a party hereto with no continuing liability or rights hereunder.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have entered into this Agreement or have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers, in each case as of the date first above stated.
