ARTICLE III

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

3.1 Composition of the Board of Directors.

3.1.1 The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) shall be composed as follows:

(a)

For so long as the Company is a Controlled Company, the Board shall be composed of not more than twelve (12) individuals (each, a “Director”), and will be composed as follows:

(i)

Eight (8) individuals shall be nominated by the Board upon the direction of the Initial Shareholder, of which each of the Blackstone Investors, the Carlyle Investors, the Permira Investors and the TPG Investors shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate two (2) directors (collectively, the “Sponsor Designees,” and each individually, a “Sponsor Designee”);

(ii)

One (1) director shall be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in office from time to time; and

(iii)

Such number of additional directors nominated by the Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee, that meet the then current standards to qualify as an independent director under the Exchange Act and established national securities exchange on which the Shares are then listed for trading so that the Board and the members of the board committees contemplated by Section 3.1.5 hereof satisfy the applicable “independence” requirements (the “Board Independence Requirements”).

(b)

For so long as (x) the Company is not a Controlled Company and (y) the Initial Shareholder and the Sponsors beneficially own in the aggregate at least 20% of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Company, the Board will be composed as follows:

(i)

Four (4) individuals shall be nominated by the Board at the direction of the Initial Shareholder, of which each of the Sponsors

shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate one (1) Sponsor Designee to the Board; provided, however, that any Sponsor whose Ownership Percentage is less than 2.8% shall not have the right to nominate a Sponsor Designee pursuant to this Section 3.1.1(b)(i);

(ii)

One (1) director shall be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in office from time to time; and

(iii)

Such number of additional directors nominated by Board, acting upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee so that the Board and its committees satisfy then applicable Board Independence Requirements.

(c)

At such time as the Initial Shareholder and the Sponsors beneficially own in the aggregate less than 20% of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Company, each of the Sponsors whose Ownership Percentage is at least 5% shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate one (1) Sponsor Designee and any remaining directors shall be nominated by the Board acting upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee so that the Board and its committees satisfy then applicable Board Independence Requirements.

(d)

To the extent that issued and outstanding Shares of the Company held by the Initial Shareholder are distributed to the Sponsors, each Sponsor with a right to direct the Initial Shareholder to nominate a director shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate such director directly.

For purposes of this Section 3.1.1, each Sponsor may nominate any individual as its Sponsor Designee, regardless of whether such individual is considered an independent director or is affiliated with such Sponsor.

3.1.2 Removal, Resignation, Vacancies.

(a)

Generally. In the event that a vacancy is created on the Board by the death, disability, retirement, Resignation or removal (with or without cause) of a Sponsor Designee elected pursuant to Section 3.1.1, or if a Sponsor Designee is otherwise unable to serve for any reason prior to the expiration of his or her term as a director, then, subject to Section 3.1.2(b), the Governing Documents and applicable Law, the Sponsor who nominated such Sponsor Designee to the Board shall be entitled to nominate a replacement to the Board, and the Initial Shareholder and the Company shall exercise all authority under applicable Law to give effect to this Section 3.1.2. Subject to Section 3.1.2, the Governing

Documents and applicable Laws, each Sponsor Designee may be removed by, and only by, the affirmative vote or written consent of the Sponsor who designated such Sponsor Designee. If, prior to his or her election to the Board, any person is unable or unwilling to serve as a Sponsor Designee, then the applicable Sponsor shall, subject to Section 3.1.2, be entitled to designate a replacement. If any Sponsor entitled to designate a person to fill any directorship fails to do so, then such directorship shall remain vacant until filled by such Sponsor. If the Initial Shareholder or a Sponsor is entitled to nominate one or more Sponsor Designees, and the Initial Shareholder or such Sponsor provides written notice to the Company of its desire to remove one of its Sponsor Designees from the Board, (i) the Initial Shareholder or such Sponsor shall take all reasonable action necessary to procure that such Sponsor Designee resigns from the Board and (ii) if such Sponsor Designee will not resign, the Initial Shareholder or such Sponsor agrees that it shall take all reasonable action necessary to effect such removal as promptly as practicable on request. Without limiting the preceding provisions, neither the Initial Shareholder nor any Sponsor shall be entitled to nominate for removal, appointment or re-appointment any Director except for such Director that it is entitled to nominate for removal, appointment or re-appointment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.1.2.

(b)

Vacancies upon a Reduction in Ownership Percentage. To the extent that, pursuant to Section 3.1.1, there is any reduction in the number of Sponsor Designees that the Initial Shareholder and the Sponsor is entitled to nominate, then the Initial Shareholder and the Sponsor shall send a written notice to the Secretary of the Company stating the name of the Sponsor Designee to be removed from the Board and, upon receipt of such notice by the Secretary of the Company (or, in the event such notice is not delivered within ten (10) days after written request from the Company, such selection of a Sponsor Designee shall be made by the Company), such Sponsor Designee shall be removed from the Board, and the vacancy or vacancies created thereby (and, thereafter, any vacancies created in that particular directorship) shall be filled by a person designated by the Board upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

3.1.3 Committees of the Board.

(a)

Board Committees. The Board will have an audit committee (the “Audit Committee”), a nominating and corporate governance committee (the “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee”), a compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”), a finance committee (the “Finance Committee”) and any other ad-hoc or standing committees that the Board decides to establish. All of these committees are collectively referred to as the “Board Committees”.

(b)

Subject to compliance with the Board Independence Requirements, the members of the Board Committees shall be designated by the Board from among the Directors, provided that no Board Committee shall be comprised of more than one Sponsor Designee of a particular Sponsor. Each Sponsor who has at least one Sponsor Designee on the Board and who does not have a Sponsor Designee on a particular Board Committee is entitled to designate an “observer” on such Board Committee. As of the Closing Date, the members of the Audit Committee are set forth on Schedule II, the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are set forth on Schedule III, the members of the Compensation Committee are set forth on Schedule IV, and the members of the Finance Committee are set forth on Schedule V.

(c)

The Board shall appoint a member of each Board Committee as its chairman.

(d)

The powers and responsibilities of each of the Board Committees shall be as set forth in the Governing Documents.

3.1.4 Cooperation by Initial Shareholder, Sponsors and the Company. The Company agrees to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board, acting on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the persons nominated pursuant to this Article III and to use its best efforts to cause the election of each such nominees to the Board, including nominating, recommending election and electing such individuals as Directors as provided herein. Each of the Initial Shareholder, the Sponsors and the Company agree to take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as is within its reasonable control to effect the provisions of this Section 3.1 and to ensure that the Governing Documents do not, from time to time or at any time, conflict with the provisions of Section 3.1, including causing any Director nominated thereby to take or refrain from taking action for the foregoing purpose. Each of the Initial Shareholder and the Sponsors, as applicable, hereby agrees to take all actions necessary to call, or cause the Company, the Officers or the Directors to call, a special or annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company and to vote all Shares owned or held of record by such Party at any such annual or special meeting in favor of, or take all actions by written consent in lieu of any such meeting necessary to cause, the election as Directors of the Board of those individuals so designated in accordance with, and otherwise to effect the intent of Section 3.1.

5.2 Board Approval. If the Board, having consulted U.S. and Bermuda counsel, reasonably believes that a particular Sponsor Transaction would require the approval of the Directors who are not Sponsor Designees, then on or following the Board’s approval of the Sponsor Transaction the Board shall take all reasonable steps to obtain the approval of such Directors.

5.3 Restriction on Amendment of Sponsor Transaction Provisions. Each of the Sponsor Designees agrees that it will not amend, modify or waive Section 5.1, unless such amendment, modification or waiver is approved by each Sponsor Designee; provided, that any amendment to the definitions used in Section 5.1 (only to the extent any such amendment would have an effect contrary to the intent set forth in the section) shall also require the consent of each Sponsor Designee.

ARTICLE VI

CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

6.1 Business Opportunities. Each Sponsor shall have the right to, and shall have no duty not to, engage in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company, including those deemed to be competing with the Company, and in the event that a Sponsor (or any of its Affiliates) acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for the Company, the Sponsor shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable for breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise) by reason of the fact that the Sponsor (or any of its Affiliates) directly or indirectly pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself, directs such opportunity to another person, or does not present such opportunity to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Sponsor acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for the Company, as a result of an employee or agent of such Sponsor (or any of its Affiliates) acting in his or her capacity as a Director or as an officer of the Company, then the Sponsor will present such opportunity to the Company and may not pursue such opportunity for itself, or direct such opportunity to another person, unless the Company has declined to pursue such opportunity.

6.2 Exclusion of Affiliates and Portfolio Companies. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Section 6.1 shall not apply to non-fund Affiliates or portfolio companies of any Sponsor.

ARTICLE VII

INFORMATION

7.1 Information. Each of the Sponsors acknowledges that the Company is a publicly listed company and as such is bound by various laws regarding the provision of information, including the rules and regulations of the SEC, the established national securities exchange on which the Shares are then listed for trading and the Bermuda Companies Act. The Company has also adopted the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Policy. Each Sponsor shall, and such Sponsor shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, comply at all times with such laws, rules and regulations and the Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Policy. Subject to any changes required by changes in applicable law, the Parties agree that any amendments to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Policy shall remain consistent with the terms of, and not be averse to the rights of the Sponsors promulgated under, this Agreement.

7.2 Permitted Shared Information. Subject to the foregoing, each Sponsor is entitled to the same Information and Confidential Information (as defined below) as provided to its respective Sponsor Designee, subject to maintenance of adequate procedures to prevent such information from being used in connection with the purchase or sale of securities of the Company or its direct or indirect Subsidiaries in violation of applicable Law.

7.3 Confidentiality. Each Sponsor agrees to hold in strict confidence all Information furnished to it (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by a Sponsor, (ii) is or becomes available to a Sponsor or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a third party source (other than any other Sponsor or its Representatives), which source, to the best knowledge of such Sponsor (after reasonable inquiry), is not bound by a duty of confidentiality to the Company in respect of such Confidential Information or (iii) is independently developed by a Sponsor. Subject to applicable Law, each Sponsor may disclose any Confidential Information to its Representatives (a) to the extent necessary or appropriate in connection with its investment in the Company or for evaluating and preparing disclosure pursuant to clause (b) below in the case of professional advisers and agents and to any Affiliate, partner or member of such Sponsor in the ordinary course of business, provided that each of such Representatives shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 7.3 and shall, if requested by the Company, sign an undertaking agreeing to be bound by this Section 7.3 prior to receiving any Confidential Information, (b) to the extent necessary for a Sponsor to enforce its rights under this Agreement, the other agreements entered into in connection herewith and under the Governing Documents or (c) as may otherwise be required by Law (including reporting under securities Laws and governmental filings); provided that such Sponsor takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure, including using reasonable best efforts to obtain a protective order in any legal proceeding, and provide the Company with notice describing the disclosure that was or is to be made. If a Sponsor or any of its Representatives is required by Law or regulation or any legal or judicial process to disclose any Confidential Information, or

disclosure of Confidential Information is requested by any Governmental Authority having authority over such Sponsor, such Sponsor shall promptly notify the Company and the other Sponsors of such requirement so that the Company may at its own expense oppose such requirement or seek a protective order and request confidential treatment thereof. If such Sponsor or any of its Representatives is nonetheless required, or such a request nonetheless remains outstanding, to disclose any such Confidential Information, such Sponsor or its Representative may disclose such portion of such Confidential Information without liability hereunder.

7.4 Public Announcements. No public announcement or press release concerning the business of the Company or its direct or indirect Subsidiaries or this Agreement or any of its provisions shall be made by any Party (or any Affiliate thereof) that is not the Company, without the prior consent of the Board, which may also be given in general terms with respect to categories of announcements. This provision shall not prohibit any public announcement or press release required to be made by any applicable Laws.

ARTICLE VIII

FEES AND EXPENSES

8.1 Fees. No Sponsor Designee shall receive any director’s or Board fee unless and to the extent the Board determines otherwise, in which case any such fees shall be within the framework of the directors’ compensation policy approved from time to time by the Board.

8.2 Expenses. Sponsor Designees and each Sponsor’s directors, managers, officers, partners, members, principals, and employees shall be entitled to reimbursement of all out-of-pocket travel and related expenses incurred by such Sponsor Designees and each Sponsor’s directors, managers, officers, partners, members, principals, and employees in connection with their attendance at Board and Board Committee meetings.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION

9.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of (i) the written agreement of all of the Parties hereto or (ii) such date as the last Sponsor ceases to have an Ownership Percentage of at least 2.8%.

9.2 Termination with respect to Sponsors. At the time any Sponsor ceases to have an Ownership Percentage of at least 2.8%, such Sponsor shall cease to be a party to this Agreement and shall no longer be bound by this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Notices.

10.1.1 Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests or consents provided for or required to be given hereunder shall be in writing

and shall be deemed to be duly given if personally delivered, telecopied and confirmed, or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or nationally recognized overnight delivery service with proof of receipt maintained, at the following addresses (or any other address that any such Party may designate by written notice to the other Parties):

(a)

if to the Company, at the address of its principal executive offices; and

(b)

if to a Sponsor, to the address given for the Sponsor in the books and records of the Company.

Any such notice shall, if delivered personally, be deemed received upon delivery; shall, if delivered by telecopy, be deemed received on the first business day following confirmation; shall, if delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service, be deemed received the first business day after being sent; and shall, if delivered by mail, be deemed received upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or five business days after the date of deposit in the United States mail.

10.1.2 Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Governing Documents or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

10.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Governing Documents, Registration Rights Agreement, and the Investors Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the Sponsors and their Affiliates relating to the Company and supersede all prior contracts or agreements with respect to the Company, whether oral or written.

10.3 Effect of a Waiver of Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.

10.4 Amendment or Restatement.

10.11.3 TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE OR ACTION, CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR SUIT (IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), INQUIRY, PROCEEDING OR INVESTIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING.

10.11.5 If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future Laws effective during the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

10.11.6 No Party hereto shall be liable to any of the other such Persons for punitive, special, exemplary or consequential Damages, including Damages for loss of profits, loss of use or revenue or losses by reason of cost of capital, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, regardless of whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, violation of any applicable deceptive trade practices act or similar Law or any other legal or equitable principle, and each Party releases each other Party from liability for any such Damages.

10.12 Applicable Law. The Parties acknowledge that in certain instances a provision of this Agreement may not be enforceable or that its enforceability may be limited by applicable Law. Nevertheless, the Parties agree that they intend to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and, if any provision is held to be unenforceable, the Parties agree to use their reasonable efforts to implement an alternative enforcement mechanism that would effect, as closely as possible, the intent of the Parties as reflected in or provided by the unenforceable provision. Moreover, each Party agrees that, if any corporate formality or other procedure is not expressly mandated by Law or the provisions of this Agreement to be taken by the Parties but the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement would be enhanced if the Parties act in accordance with such corporate formality or other procedure, the Parties agree to act in accordance with such corporate formality or other procedure to the extent recommended by counsel to the Company and its Subsidiaries in the relevant jurisdiction.

10.13 Further Assurances. The Parties will sign such further documents, cause such further meetings to be held, adopt such resolutions and do and perform and cause to be done such further acts and things as may be necessary in order to give full effect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and every provision thereof.

10.16 VCOC. In the event that the Company ceases to qualify as an “operating company” as defined in the first sentence of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101(c), then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to take all reasonable action necessary to provide that the investment (or at least 51% of the investment, valued at cost) of each Sponsor or its shareholders, that qualifies as a “venture capital operating company” as defined in 29 C.F.R.
