(a) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time (if the Cash/Stock Merger occurs) or the Unit Effective Time (if the Cash/Stock Merger does not occur), as the case may be, all Broadcom Common Shares that are held by Broadcom as treasury stock prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time or the Unit Effective Time, as the case may be, shall cease to be outstanding and shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Subject to Sections 3.1(a), 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, each Broadcom Common Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time (if the Cash/Stock Merger occurs) or the Unit Effective Time (if the Cash/Stock Merger does not occur), as the case may be (including any Broadcom Common Shares held in a Benefit Plan or related trust):

(i) if such share is a Cash Electing Share or Non-Electing Share shall, at the Cash/Stock Effective Time, be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive (1) cash in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Maximum Cash Amount and (y) the Cash Proration Fraction; and (2) a number of Holdco Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (x) the Maximum Equity Amount and (y) a number equal to (I) one (1) minus (II) the Cash Proration Fraction;

(ii) if such share is a Stock Electing Share, and

(2) if the number of Equity Electing Shares is equal to or less than Half of Outstanding Shares, then at the Cash/Stock Effective Time, such Stock Electing Share shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Holdco Ordinary Shares equal to the Maximum Equity Amount;

(3) if the number of Unit Electing Shares is less than Half of Outstanding Shares, but the number of Equity Electing Shares exceeds Half of Outstanding Shares, then at the Cash/Stock Effective Time, such Stock Electing Share shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive (A) a number of Holdco Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (x) the Maximum Equity Amount and (y) the Stock Proration Fraction; and (B) cash in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Maximum Cash Amount and (y) a number equal to (I) one (1) minus (II) the Stock Proration Fraction;

(iii) if such share is a Unit Electing Share, and

(1) if the IRS Ruling has been obtained, then, at the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each Unit Electing Share shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Holdco Restricted Ordinary Shares equal to the Maximum Equity Amount; or

(2) if the IRS Ruling has not been obtained, then (A) at the Cash/Stock Effective Time (if the Cash/Stock Merger occurs), (I) if such Unit Electing Share is a Class A Common Share, then such Unit Electing Share shall remain outstanding as one Class A Common Share of the Broadcom Interim Surviving Corporation and (II) if such Unit Electing Share is a Class B Common Share, then such Unit Electing Share shall remain outstanding as one Class B Common Share of the Broadcom Interim Surviving Corporation and (B) at the Unit Effective Time, such Unit Electing Share (including as remaining outstanding as a Class A Common Share or Class B Common Share of the Broadcom Interim Surviving Corporation under clause (1)(A) of this Section 3.1(b)(iii)) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Units equal to the Maximum Equity Amount;

(c) At the Unit Effective Time, the Unit Electing Shares, and at the Cash/Stock Effective Time, all Broadcom Common Shares that are not Unit Electing Shares, that are issued and outstanding shall cease to be outstanding and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such Broadcom Common Shares (a “Broadcom Certificate”) or Broadcom Common Shares held in book entry form (“Book Entry Shares”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive, in accordance with Section 3.1(b), the Broadcom Merger Consideration (or, if applicable, the consideration provided in Section 3.3 or Section 3.6) and any other amounts herein provided, upon surrender of such Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Shares, without interest.

(d) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each share of Class A common stock of Cash/Stock Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time shall be converted into one Class A Common Share of the Broadcom Interim Surviving Corporation. At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each share of Class B common stock of Cash/Stock Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time shall be converted into one Class B Common Share of the Broadcom Interim Surviving Corporation.

(e) At the Unit Effective Time, (i) each share of Class A common stock of Unit Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Unit Effective Time shall be converted into one Class A Common Share of the Broadcom Surviving Corporation (ii) each share of Class B common stock of Unit Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Unit Effective Time shall be converted into one Class B Common Share of the Broadcom Surviving Corporation, and (iii) all Broadcom Common Shares that are held by Lower Holdco shall cease to be outstanding and shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

Section 3.2 Adjustments. If at any time between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Times any change in capitalization of Broadcom or any Avago Party shall occur as a result of a reclassification, recapitalization, share split (including a reverse share split), or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any share dividend or share distribution (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock of Broadcom or any Avago Party) with a record date before or during such period, the Broadcom Merger Consideration, Maximum Cash Amount, Maximum Equity Amount and any other similarly dependent items, as the case may be, shall be equitably adjusted to provide the holders of Avago Ordinary Shares and Broadcom Common Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 3.3 Fractional Shares or Units. No certificates representing fractional Holdco Ordinary Shares or Units will be issued by virtue of the Transactions, but in lieu thereof each holder of Broadcom Common Shares that would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Holdco Ordinary Share (after aggregating all fractional Holdco Ordinary Shares that otherwise would be received by such holder) or Unit (after aggregating all fractional Units that otherwise would be received by such holder), as applicable, shall, upon surrender of such holder’s Broadcom Certificate(s) or Book Entry Shares or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit in the manner provided in Section 3.5(g), receive from Holdco an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, equal to the product of (x) such fraction of a Holdco Ordinary Share or Unit, as applicable, and (y) the Avago Measurement Price.

Section 3.4 Exercise of Election by Broadcom Shareholders.

(a) Prior to the Broadcom Effective Times, Avago will designate a nationally-recognized U.S. financial institution reasonably acceptable to Broadcom to act as exchange agent in the Transactions and the Avago Scheme (the “Exchange Agent”). Broadcom, Avago and Holdco shall enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent setting forth the duties responsibilities and obligations of the Exchange Agent consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Exchange Agent will administer the Election process described in this Section 3.4 and the process described in Section 3.5. All elections in accordance with this Section 3.4 (“Elections”) will be made on a form designed for that purpose and mutually acceptable to Broadcom and Avago (each a “Form of Election” and collectively, “Forms of Election”); provided, that, in any event, the Form of Election shall include (a) a representation by any holder of a Unit Electing Share that such holder is not a party to and does not otherwise participate, directly or indirectly, in any Hedging Transaction (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), and (b) an acknowledgement that any such holder shall, upon accepting Units, be deemed, by virtue of acceptance of such Units and without any further action on such holder’s part, to have executed the Partnership Agreement and agreed to the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions of the Units and to comply with the terms and restrictions of the Partnership Agreement. Avago shall deliver via mail, facsimile or other means of electronic transmission Forms of Election, together with a copy of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in connection with the Broadcom Shareholder Meeting, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) (Shareholder Approval), Section 7.1(c) (Antitrust), Section 7.1(d) (Registration Statement), Section 7.1(e) (Nasdaq Listing) and Section 7.1(f) (CFIUS) (the “Election Mailing Date”), to each holder of record of Broadcom Common Shares as of the close of the fifth Business Day prior to the Election Mailing Date (the “Election Record Date”). To the extent practicable, the Form of Election will permit each holder that beneficially owns Broadcom Common Shares, in more than one name or account, to specify (through appropriate and customary documentation and instructions) how to allocate the cash paid, the Holdco Ordinary Shares to be issued in the Cash/Stock Merger, and the Units to be issued in the Unit Merger among the various accounts that such holder beneficially owns. Avago and Broadcom will make available one or more Forms of Election as may be reasonably requested by any Person who becomes a holder (or beneficial owner) of Broadcom Common Shares between the Election Record Date and the close of business on the day prior to the Election Deadline.

(b) A Form of Election must be properly completed, signed, and actually received by the Exchange Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the date five (5) Business Days prior to Avago’s good faith estimate of the Broadcom Effective Times or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Avago and Broadcom (such time hereinafter referred to as the “Election Deadline”) in order to be effective; provided, that Avago shall publish a press release announcing the Election Deadline at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Election Deadline; provided, further, that the Election Deadline shall not be earlier than twenty (20) Business Days after the Election Mailing Date. Any Broadcom Common Shares for which the record holder has not, prior to the Election Deadline, properly submitted a properly completed Form of Election to the Exchange Agent will be deemed to be a Non-Electing Share. Any record holder of Broadcom Common Shares who has made an Election may at any time prior to the Election Deadline change such holder’s Election by submitting a revised Form of

Election, properly completed, that is received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. After an Election has been validly made, such Election must be revoked prior to any subsequent transfer of the Broadcom Common Shares as to which such Election related, and any subsequent transfer of Broadcom Common Shares as to which such Election related shall automatically revoke such Election. In addition, all Forms of Election will automatically be revoked if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by Avago and Broadcom that this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 8.1. The Election Deadline shall only be extended by mutual agreement of Avago and Broadcom, and the parties shall promptly make a public announcement of any such agreement.

(c) The Exchange Agent will have the discretion to determine whether Forms of Election have been properly completed, signed, and timely submitted or to disregard defects in forms. Any such determination of the Exchange Agent will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Exchange Agent will not be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in a Form of Election submitted to the Exchange Agent. Any Broadcom Common Shares with respect to which a holder is deemed to have not submitted a valid Election prior to the Election Deadline will be deemed to be a Non-Electing Share.

(d) The Exchange Agent will make all the computations contemplated by this Section 3.4, including the determination of the number of Cash Electing Shares, Stock Electing Shares, Unit Electing Shares and Non-Electing Shares, and all such computations will be conclusive and binding on the former holders of Broadcom Common Shares absent manifest error. The Exchange Agent may, with the agreement of Avago and Broadcom’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make such rules as are consistent with this Section 3.4 for the implementation of the procedures provided for herein as are necessary or desirable to effect fully such procedures.

(e) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, Avago will instruct the Exchange Agent to return all Broadcom Common Shares submitted or transferred to the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 3.4.

Section 3.5 Exchange Procedures for Broadcom Common Shares.

(a) At or immediately after the Cash/Stock Effective Time, Avago shall cause Holdco and New LP to respectively deposit with the Exchange Agent, acting as exchange agent and solely for the account and benefit of the former holders of Broadcom Common Shares at the Broadcom Effective Times, for exchange in accordance with this Article III, certificates or book entry shares representing the full number of Holdco Ordinary Shares and Units issuable pursuant to this Article III in exchange for outstanding Broadcom Common Shares. At or immediately after the Broadcom Effective Times, Avago shall provide or shall cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent all of the cash necessary to pay the aggregate amount of the Broadcom Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Article III, including the aggregate amount of the Holdco Ordinary Shares and Units and the Aggregate Cash Consideration payable pursuant to this Article III (such Holdco Ordinary Shares, Units and Aggregate Cash Consideration, the “Consideration Fund”). In addition, Avago shall make available as necessary cash in an amount sufficient for payment in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.3. In the event the Consideration Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate amount of the

Broadcom Merger Consideration payable in connection with the Transactions, including any deficiency in (i) the Aggregate Cash Consideration and (ii) the number of Holdco Ordinary Shares and Units issuable in connection with the Transactions, Avago shall promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, additional funds, Holdco Ordinary Shares and/or Units to the Exchange Agent, in each case in an amount that is equal to such deficiency required to make such payments.

(b) Promptly after the Broadcom Effective Times (and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Times), Avago shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of Broadcom Certificates or Book Entry Shares whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Broadcom Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1: (i) a letter of transmittal, in customary form, that shall specify that delivery of such Broadcom Certificates or transfer of such Book Entry Shares shall be deemed to have occurred, and risk of loss and title to the Broadcom Certificates or Book Entry Shares, as applicable, shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Broadcom Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of the Book Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Broadcom Certificates or transfer of the Book Entry Shares in exchange for payment of the Broadcom Merger Consideration, the form and substance of which letter of transmittal and instructions shall be substantially as reasonably agreed to by Broadcom and Avago and prepared prior to the Closing. Upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent in connection with the transfer of a Book Entry Share or surrender of a Broadcom Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, in each case together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and with such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Book Entry Share or Broadcom Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, subject to any required withholding of Taxes, the Broadcom Merger Consideration and cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares, if any, in each case pursuant to the provisions of this Article III, and the Book Entry Share so transferred or Broadcom Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid to holders of Book Entry Shares or Broadcom Certificates in connection with, or accrued on, the Broadcom Merger Consideration or any cash paid in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares. If any Broadcom Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than a Person in whose name the Book Entry Share transferred or Broadcom Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the Person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of payment of the Broadcom Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Book Entry Share transferred or Broadcom Certificate surrendered, or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(c) Cash in the Consideration Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by Avago; provided, however, that any such investments shall be in short-term obligations of the United States with maturities of no more than thirty (30) days or guaranteed by the United States and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. Earnings on the Consideration Fund in excess of the amounts payable to holders of Broadcom Common Shares prior to the Cash/Stock Merger and Unit Merger shall be the sole and exclusive property of Avago and shall be paid to Avago. No investment of the Consideration Fund shall relieve the Avago Parties or the Exchange Agent from promptly making the payments required by this

Article III, and following any losses from any such investment, Avago shall promptly provide additional cash funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of Broadcom Common Shares at the Broadcom Effective Times in the amount of such losses, which additional funds will be deemed to be part of the Consideration Fund.

(d) At and after the Cash/Stock Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Broadcom of Broadcom Common Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time. If, after the Broadcom Effective Time, Broadcom Certificates or Book Entry Shares are presented to Holdco, the Broadcom Surviving Corporation, Avago or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Broadcom Merger Consideration pursuant to this Article III, except as provided in Section 3.6 or as otherwise provided by Law.

(e) Any portion of the Consideration Fund (including the proceeds of any investments thereof) that remains unclaimed by the former holders of Broadcom Common Shares one (1) year after the Broadcom Effective Times shall be delivered to Avago. Any holders of Broadcom Certificates or Book Entry Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect to such Broadcom Certificates or Book Entry Shares shall thereafter look only to Avago for payment of their claim for Broadcom Merger Consideration in respect thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person in respect of Broadcom Merger Consideration from the Consideration Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share shall not have been surrendered or transferred prior to the date on which any Broadcom Merger Consideration in respect thereof would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity pursuant to applicable Law, any Broadcom Merger Consideration in respect of such Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Avago, and any holder of such Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share who has not theretofore complied with this Article III with respect thereto shall thereafter look only to Avago for payment of their claim for Broadcom Merger Consideration in respect thereof.

(g) If any Broadcom Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact (such affidavit shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Holdco and the Exchange Agent) by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Broadcom Certificate, the Broadcom Merger Consideration to which such Person is entitled in respect of such Broadcom Certificate pursuant to this Article III; provided, however, that Holdco may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Broadcom Certificate to deliver a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as Holdco may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Holdco, the Avago Parties or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Broadcom Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(h) No dividends or other distributions with respect to Holdco Ordinary Shares or Units of New LP with a record date after the Broadcom Effective Times shall be paid to the holder of any Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share formerly representing Broadcom Common Shares, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 3.3, until the surrender of such Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share in accordance with this Article III. Subject to applicable Law, following surrender of any such Broadcom Certificate or Book Entry Share, there shall be paid to the holder of the Holdco Ordinary Shares or Units of New LP issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional Holdco Ordinary Share or Unit of New LP to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.3 and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Broadcom Effective Times theretofore paid with respect to such whole Holdco Ordinary Shares or Units of New LP and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Broadcom Effective Times but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to Holdco Ordinary Shares or Units of New LP.

Section 3.6 Shares of Dissenting Shareholders. Dissenting Shares will not be converted into the right to receive that portion of the Broadcom Merger Consideration otherwise payable with respect to such Broadcom Common Shares after the Broadcom Effective Times, but will instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL. If a Dissenting Shareholder withdraws such holder’s demand for purchase of such Dissenting Shares for fair market value pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL or becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal, then, as of the Broadcom Effective Times or the occurrence of such event of withdrawal or ineligibility, whichever last occurs, such holder’s Dissenting Shares will cease to be Dissenting Shares and will be converted into the right to receive, and will be exchangeable for, the Broadcom Merger Consideration into which such Dissenting Shares would have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1 as if such shares were Cash Electing Shares. Each Dissenting Shareholder who, pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL, becomes entitled to payment of the fair market value of the Dissenting Shares will receive payment therefor (but only after the value therefor has been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to such provisions). Broadcom shall give Avago (a) prompt notice of any demands received by Broadcom for the purchase of Broadcom Common Shares pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL and/or payment in respect thereof, attempted written withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL and received by Broadcom relating to shareholders’ demands for the purchase of Broadcom Common Shares pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL with respect to the Cash/Stock Merger and the Unit Merger, and (b) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to any exercise of such rights under Chapter 13 of the CGCL, provided, that Broadcom shall direct and control any such negotiations and proceedings. Except as required by applicable Law or pursuant to an order, decree or ruling of a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over Broadcom, Broadcom shall not (and shall not agree to), without the prior written consent of Avago, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer to settle, any such demands or applications, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand or to timely take any other action for the purchase of Broadcom Common Shares pursuant to Chapter 13 of the CGCL.

Section 3.7 Treatment of Stock Options; Restricted Stock Units; and Performance Restricted Stock Units.

(a) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each outstanding and unvested Broadcom Stock Option (except as set forth in Section 3.7(d) of the Broadcom Disclosure Schedule) that is held by an individual who is eligible to be included on a registration statement filed by Holdco on Form S-8 shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be assumed and converted into an option to purchase that number of Holdco Ordinary Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the sum of (x) the product of (A) the number of Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Stock Option and (B) the Normalized Stock Consideration and (y) the product of (A) the number of Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Stock Option and (B) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Normalized Cash Consideration by (ii) the Avago Measurement Price, at an exercise price per Holdco Ordinary Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (1) the aggregate exercise price for the Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Stock Option by (2) the aggregate number of Holdco Ordinary Shares to be subject to such Broadcom Stock Option after giving effect to the adjustments in this Section 3.7(a) (each, as so adjusted, a “Broadcom Converted Holdco Option”). All rounding described in this Section 3.7(a) shall be done on an aggregate basis.

(b) Subject to applicable Law, the Broadcom Converted Holdco Options shall have the same vesting schedule (including any acceleration of vesting as provided in any applicable Broadcom Equity Plan, Benefit Plan, or Benefit Agreement) as the Broadcom Stock Options and otherwise shall have the same terms and conditions as such Broadcom Stock Options; provided, that Holdco shall convert Broadcom Stock Options into Broadcom Converted Holdco Options in such a manner as to ensure that the Broadcom Converted Holdco Options are not subject to Section 409A of the Code as a result of the assumption and conversion. After such assumption and conversion, the Broadcom Converted Holdco Options shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Broadcom Equity Plan, grant agreements under which the Broadcom Stock Options were originally issued, and any other applicable Benefit Plan or Benefit Agreement (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions).

(c) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each outstanding and vested Broadcom Stock Option shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be cancelled and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the positive difference, if any, calculated by subtracting the aggregate exercise price of such Broadcom Stock Option from the product of the number of vested shares subject to such Broadcom Stock Option multiplied by the Equity Award Consideration (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes or other amounts required by applicable Law to be withheld). Following the Cash/Stock Effective Time, any such cancelled Broadcom Stock Option shall no longer be exercisable for Broadcom Common Shares and shall entitle the holder of such Broadcom Stock Option to only the payment described in this Section 3.7(c), which shall be made by the Broadcom Surviving Corporation or Holdco as of, or within two (2) Business Days following, the Cash/Stock Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, any vested Broadcom Stock Option that is an Underwater Option shall be cancelled for no consideration immediately prior to the Broadcom Effective Time and the holder of such Underwater Option shall have no further rights with respect thereto.

(d) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, by virtue of the Cash/Stock Merger, each unvested Broadcom Restricted Stock Unit outstanding immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time (except as set forth on Section 3.7(d) of the Broadcom Disclosure Schedule) that is held by an individual who is eligible to be included on a registration statement filed by Holdco on Form S-8 shall be converted into an award consisting of that number of restricted share units of Holdco Ordinary Shares (“Converted RSUs”) equal to the sum of (x) the product of (A) the number of Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Restricted Stock Units and (B) the Normalized Stock Consideration and (y) the product of (A) the number of Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Restricted Stock Units and (B) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Normalized Cash Consideration, by (ii) the Avago Measurement Price (rounded down to the nearest whole share). The Converted RSUs shall have the same vesting schedule (including any acceleration of vesting as provided in any applicable Broadcom Equity Plan, Benefit Plan, or Benefit Agreement) as the Broadcom Restricted Stock Units and otherwise shall have the same terms and conditions as such Broadcom Restricted Stock Units; provided, that Holdco shall convert Broadcom Restricted Stock Units into Converted RSUs in such a manner as to ensure that the Converted RSUs are not subject to, or are compliant with, Section 409A of the Code as a result of the assumption and conversion. Subject to applicable Law, any Converted RSUs issued pursuant to this Section 3.7(d) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Broadcom Restricted Stock Units (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions, and this transaction shall constitute a change in control for all relevant provisions).

(e) At the Cash/Stock Effective Time, each outstanding and vested Broadcom Restricted Stock Unit (including any Broadcom Restricted Stock Unit that becomes vested as a result (alone or in combination with another event) of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement) shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be cancelled and extinguished, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes or other amounts required by applicable Law to be withheld) an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the total number of Broadcom Common Shares subject to such Broadcom Restricted Stock Unit multiplied by (ii) the Equity Award Consideration. The payment described in this Section 3.7(e) shall be made by the Broadcom Surviving Corporation as of, or within two (2) Business Days, the Broadcom Effective Times; provided, that such payment shall be made at such other time or times following the Broadcom Effective Times consistent with the terms of the Broadcom Restricted Stock Unit to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional income tax under Section 409A of the Code.

(f) Prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time, Broadcom shall take all actions necessary to effectuate the provisions set forth in this Section 3.7; provided, that no action taken by Broadcom shall be required to be irrevocable until immediately prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time. The parties shall, to the extent necessary minimize the tax impact to holders of Broadcom Stock Options and Broadcom Restricted Stock Units of the provisions set forth in this Section 3.7, cooperate in good faith prior to the Cash/Stock Effective Time to develop a mechanism with respect to Broadcom Stock Options and Broadcom Restricted Stock Units held by individuals subject to Taxes imposed by the Laws of a country other than the United States.

Section 3.8 Avago Equity Awards.

(a) At the Avago Effective Time, each outstanding Avago Share Option shall, without any further action on the part of any holder thereof, be assumed and converted into an option to purchase the same number of Holdco Ordinary Shares as the number of Avago Ordinary Shares subject to such Avago Share Option at the same exercise price per Holdco Ordinary Share as the per share exercise price for the Avago Ordinary Shares subject to such Avago Share Option (each, as so adjusted, an “Avago Converted Holdco Option”). Subject to applicable Law, the Avago Converted Holdco Options shall have the same vesting schedule (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions) as the Avago Share Options and otherwise shall have the same terms and conditions as such Avago Share Options. After such assumption and conversion, the Avago Converted Holdco Options shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Avago Equity Plans, grant agreements under which the Avago Share Options were originally issued, and any other applicable benefit plan, agreement or arrangement (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions, provided that in no event shall this transaction constitute a change in control for the purposes of such provisions).

(b) At the Avago Effective Time, each Avago RSU Award outstanding immediately prior to the Avago Effective Time shall be converted into an award consisting of that number of restricted share units of Holdco Ordinary Shares (“Converted Holdco RSUs”) equal to the number of Avago Ordinary Shares subject to such Avago RSU Award. The Converted Holdco RSUs shall have the same vesting schedule (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions) as the Avago RSU Awards and otherwise shall have the same terms and conditions as such Avago RSU Awards. Subject to applicable Law, any Converted Holdco RSUs issued pursuant to this Section 3.9(b) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Avago RSU Awards (including any applicable change in control or other accelerated vesting provisions, provided, that in no event shall this transaction constitute a change in control for the purposes of such provisions).

(c) Prior to the Avago Effective Time, Avago shall take all actions necessary to effectuate the provisions set forth in this Section 3.9; provided, that no action taken by Avago shall be required to be irrevocable until immediately prior to the Avago Effective Time. The parties shall, to the extent necessary to minimize the tax impact to holders of Avago Share Options and Avago RSU Awards of the provisions set forth in this Section 3.9, cooperate in good faith prior to the Avago Effective Time to develop a mechanism with respect to Avago Share Options and Avago RSU Awards held by individuals subject to Taxes imposed by the Laws of a country other than the United States.

Section 3.9 Withholding Rights. Each of the Avago Parties, Broadcom and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts, if any, as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Avago Parties, Broadcom or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, such deducted and withheld amounts (a) shall be remitted by the Avago Parties, Broadcom or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Entity and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BROADCOM

Except as disclosed (a) in the Broadcom SEC Reports filed by Broadcom and any items furnished by Broadcom with the SEC since December 31, 2012 and prior to the date of this Agreement (but (i) without giving effect to any amendment thereof filed with, or furnished to, the SEC on or after the date of this Agreement and (ii) excluding any disclosures contained under the heading “Risk Factors” and any disclosure of risks included in any “forward-looking statements” or other statements that are similarly predictive or forward-looking in nature), but only to the extent such Broadcom SEC Reports or such furnished items are publicly available on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (it being understood that this clause (ii) shall not be applicable to Section 4.2) or (b) in the Broadcom Disclosure Schedule, Broadcom represents and warrants to the Avago Parties as follows:

(iv) Avago shall not have proposed in writing at or prior to the conclusion of the Broadcom Notice Period any modifications or revisions to the terms of this Agreement, which revisions shall be evidenced by an offer to amend this Agreement that would, upon Broadcom’s acceptance, be binding on the parties hereto, and, if applicable, revisions to the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter and the Debt Financing Agreements, to provide for terms which the board of directors of Broadcom determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, to cause (x) the Broadcom Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Broadcom Superior Proposal or (y) in cases involving a Broadcom Intervening Event, the failure to make a Broadcom Change of Recommendation with respect to such Broadcom Intervening Event to be no longer be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of Broadcom’s directors under applicable Law.

Section 6.15 Financing. Avago and the other Avago Parties, as applicable, shall procure and have available (including taking into account the cash on hand held by Broadcom and its Subsidiaries on such date), as of the Closing, funds sufficient to pay all of the cash amounts required to be provided by Avago and the other Avago Parties for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the amounts payable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, all related fees and expenses required to be paid as of the date of the consummation of Merger and the funds to be provided by (or on behalf of) Avago and the other Avago Parties to Broadcom to enable Broadcom (together with the cash on hand held by Broadcom and its Subsidiaries on such date) to fund the repayment or refinancing of the Broadcom Notes and the Broadcom Credit Agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation to the foregoing:

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Avago and the other Avago Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter pursuant to the terms thereof (including any “market flex” provisions related thereto). Avago and the other Avago Parties shall not permit any amendment, modification or replacement to be made to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Debt Commitment Letter without the consent of Broadcom (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such amendment, modification, replacement or waiver (A) reduces (or could reasonably be expected to have the effect of reducing) the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid) or original issue discount (unless (x) the Debt Financing is increased by a corresponding amount or (y) the Avago Parties, Broadcom or their respective Subsidiaries have a corresponding amount of excess available cash on hand such that the representation set forth in Section 5.14 of this Agreement will still be true and correct taking into account such increase in fees or original issue discount and the then-applicable cash on hand of Avago, Broadcom and their respective Subsidiaries) or (B) imposes new or additional conditions to the initial funding or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the receipt of the initial Debt Financing, or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any other provision of the Debt Commitment Letter, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially delay (taking into account the Marketing Period) or prevent the funding in full of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing) on the Closing Date or (y) adversely impact the ability of Avago or any other Avago Party to enforce its rights against other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto, in each case, relating to the funding thereunder (provided, that Avago and the other Avago Parties may amend or replace the Debt Commitment Letter to add or replace lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities so long as such action would not reasonably be expected to materially delay (taking into account the Marketing Period) or prevent the Closing or adversely impact Avago’s ability to enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter). Avago and the other Avago Parties shall promptly deliver to Broadcom true and complete copies of any such amendment, modification or replacement. For purposes of this Section 6.15(a), references to “Debt Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as permitted to be amended or modified by this Section 6.15(a) and references to “Debt Financing” or “Debt Commitment Letter” shall include such documents as permitted to be amended or modified by this Section 6.15(a).

(b) Avago and the other Avago Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts (A) to maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (B) to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter (the “Debt Financing Agreements”) on the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter, (C) to satisfy on a timely basis all conditions to receipt of the full amount of the Debt Financing necessary to pay the aggregate amount of the Aggregate Cash Consideration at the Closing that are within its control or subject to its influence and, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, to consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, (D) to enforce the Debt Commitment Letter to cause any lender to provide such Debt Financing

and (E) to comply with their obligations under the Debt Commitment Letter. In each case promptly upon Broadcom’s request Avago and the other Avago Parties shall (i) provide to Broadcom copies of all substantially final drafts and executed definitive agreements for the Debt Financing Agreements and (ii) keep Broadcom informed in reasonable detail of the status of their efforts to arrange the Debt Financing.

(c) Avago and the other Avago Parties agree to notify Broadcom promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days, if at any time prior to the Closing Date (i) the Debt Commitment Letter is terminated for any reason, (ii) Avago or any other Avago Party becomes aware of any material breach or default by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any Debt Financing Agreement, (iii) a counterparty indicates that it will not provide, or it refuses to provide, all or any portion of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter on the terms set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, (iv) Avago or any other Avago Party receives any written notice or other written communication from any Person with respect to any actual breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing or any provisions of the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing or (v) Avago or any other Avago Party determines in good faith it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing necessary to pay the aggregate amount of the Aggregate Cash Consideration on the terms or in the manner contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive documents related to the Debt Financing; provided, that in no event will Avago be under any obligation to disclose any information that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege if Avago shall have used its reasonable best efforts to disclose such information in a manner that would not waive such privilege. Without limiting Avago’s or any other Avago Party’s other obligations under this Section 6.15, if the commitments with respect to all or any portion of the Debt Financing expires or is terminated or all or any portion of the Debt Financing otherwise becomes unavailable or it becomes reasonably foreseeable that such events will occur, then Avago and the other Avago Parties shall (x) promptly notify Broadcom of such event and the reasons therefor, (y) use reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing from alternative financing sources in an amount sufficient to pay all cash amounts required to paid in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and (z) when obtained, provide Broadcom with a copy of, a new financing commitment that provides for such alternative financing, together with all related fee letters and associated engagement letters (with only fee amounts and pricing caps redacted).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Avago’s and the other Avago Parties’ obligations hereunder are not subject to a condition regarding Avago’s, the other Avago Parties’ or any of their Affiliates’ obtaining funds to consummate the Transactions and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the payment of any fees and expenses and the repayment or refinancing of the Broadcom Notes and the Broadcom Credit Agreement.

101

Broadcom shall not be required to pay any commitment or other fee or incur any other liability in connection with the Available Financing prior to the Closing (except to the extent that Avago promptly reimburses (in the case of ordinary course out-of-pocket costs and expenses) or provides the prior funding (in all other cases) to Broadcom therefor), (vi) upon the reasonable request of Avago, satisfying the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter to the extent the satisfaction is within the control of Broadcom, (vii) cooperating with the Financing Sources’ due diligence investigation, to the extent customary and reasonable and not unreasonably interfering with the business of Broadcom and (viii) upon the reasonable request of Avago, assist Avago in obtaining accountant’s comfort letters and legal opinions customary for financings similar to the Debt Financing.

(b) Avago acknowledges and agrees that, other than ordinary course out-of-pocket costs and expense subject to reimbursement pursuant to this Section 6.16, neither Broadcom nor any of its Subsidiaries and Representatives shall have any responsibility for, or incur any liability to, any Person under, any Debt Financing that Avago may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any cooperation provided pursuant to this Section 6.16. Avago shall promptly, upon request by Broadcom, reimburse Broadcom and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including any attorneys’ fees and Out-of-Pocket Repatriation Taxes) incurred by Broadcom or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, in connection with the cooperation of Broadcom and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, contemplated by this Section 6.16. Avago shall indemnify and hold harmless Broadcom and its Subsidiaries (and its Representatives) from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs, Out-of-Pocket Repatriation Taxes or other expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or Available Financing and any information used in connection therewith (other than historical information relating to Broadcom or its Subsidiaries provided by Broadcom in writing specifically for use in the Debt Financing offering documents), in each case except to the extent such losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses arise from Broadcom’s bad faith or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.16, Avago shall have no obligation to reimburse or indemnify or hold harmless Broadcom or its Subsidiaries or Representatives for Out-of-Pocket Repatriation Taxes unless the Closing shall fail to occur within fourteen (14) days of the repatriation of such funds. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, Broadcom shall use reasonable best efforts to mitigate any losses, damages, claims, costs, Out-of-Pocket Repatriation Taxes or other expenses subject to reimbursement pursuant to this Section 6.16, including by rescinding any dividends or other distributions declared, paid or otherwise made. For purposes of this Section 6.16, “Out-of-Pocket Repatriation Taxes” means out-of-pocket Taxes resulting from (i) funds repatriated at the direction of Avago, or (ii) any later event, to the extent that such Taxes would not have resulted but for a reduction, utilization or elimination of net operating losses, credits or other Tax attributes that may otherwise have reduced or eliminated such Taxes by reason of the funds repatriated at the direction of Avago.

(c) Nothing in this Section 6.16 shall require Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries to take or permit the taking of any action that would (A) unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Broadcom or its Subsidiaries, (B) cause any covenant, representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached by Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries, (C) require Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries to pay any commitment or other similar fee or incur any

102

other expense, liability or obligation in connection with the financings contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter prior to the Closing, (D) cause any director, officer or employee of Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any personal liability, or (E) authorize any corporate action of Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries that would become effective and operative prior to the Closing. Broadcom hereby consents to the reasonable use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos shall be used solely in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm, disparage or otherwise adversely affect Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries.

(d) All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries obtained by Avago or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 6.16 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

(e) At the request of Holdco or Avago, subject to applicable Law and the Charter Documents of Broadcom and its Subsidiaries, Broadcom shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, do all things necessary, proper or advisable (including by reasonably cooperating with the Avago Parties and the Financing Sources) to make available (by way of a dividend, a loan, or such other method, in each case as requested by Holdco or Avago) any cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities (which shall be liquidated for cash at the request of Holdco or Avago) of Broadcom and its Subsidiaries, wherever held, for the funding of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the amounts payable in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, all related fees and expenses required to be paid as of the date of the consummation of Merger and the funds required to fund the repayment or refinancing of the Broadcom Notes and the Broadcom Credit Agreement, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Avago shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate in connection with Broadcom’s request for the IRS Ruling and shall promptly provide all necessary information and assistance in connection with the IRS Ruling request.

(c) Neither Avago nor Broadcom shall knowingly take or fail to take (and, following the Transactions, Holdco will cause Avago and Broadcom not to knowingly take or fail to take) any action which action (or failure to act) would reasonably be expected to (i) cause the Cash/Stock Merger and the Avago Scheme, taken together, to fail to qualify as an “exchange” within the meaning of Section 351(a) of the Code, (ii) cause the Avago Scheme to fail to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or (iii) constitute a “triggering event” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(a)-8(j)(1) or (2). With respect to the Transactions, Holdco will (and following the Transactions will cause the Broadcom Surviving Corporation and the other Avago Parties, as applicable, to) file all required information with its Tax Returns and maintain all records required for Tax purposes, including the reporting requirements contained in Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(6).

104

(d) Holdco will make commercially reasonable arrangements with each five-percent transferee shareholder (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(a)-3(c)(5)(ii)) and each “5-percent shareholder” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(a)-3(b)(1)(ii)), if any, to ensure that such shareholder will be informed of any “triggering event” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.367(a)-8(j)(1) or (2).

(e) Holdco, Broadcom and Avago shall cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing of all Tax Returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any real property transfer or gains, sales, use, transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp taxes, and transfer, recording, registration and other fees and similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the Transactions that are required or permitted to be filed on or before the Effective Times. Each of the Avago Parties shall (and Avago shall cause each of the other Avago Parties) pay, without deduction from any amount payable to holders of Broadcom Common Share or Avago Ordinary Shares and without reimbursement from the other party, any such Taxes or fees imposed on it by any Governmental Entity (or for which its shareholders are primarily liable), which becomes payable in connection with the Transactions.

(f) At the Effective Time and through the consummation of the Transactions, Intermediate Holdco, Finance Holdco and Lower Holdco will be disregarded as separate from Holdco and, following the Unit Merger (if relevant), New LP, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. New LP will be disregarded as separate from Holdco until the Unit Merger (if relevant) and, absent the Unit Merger, will remain an entity disregarded as separate from Holdco, in each case, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Avago Parties will file any required elections pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 to assure such classifications. The Avago Parties have no plan or intention to change or cause Intermediate Holdco, Finance Holdco or Lower Holdco to change their classification such that either entity may become classified as other than a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(g) Prior to the Closing Date, Broadcom shall deliver to the Avago Parties a duly executed certificate, dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, certifying that (A) Broadcom is not and in the preceding five-year period has never been a “United States real property holding corporation” as defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and (B) none of the Equity Interests in Broadcom constitutes a “United States real property interest” as defined in Section 897(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, which certificate shall be in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.897-2(h) and 1.1445-2(c)(3) and in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Avago Parties.

105

settlement or disposition thereof, and (c) not cease to defend, consent to the entry of any judgment, offer to settle, enter into any settlement or take any other material action with respect to any such shareholder litigation or Proceeding without the prior written consent of Avago, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Prior to the Closing, Broadcom shall, upon written request of Avago, provide Avago with a list of all marketable securities held by Broadcom or any of its Subsidiaries and the jurisdiction in which such securities are held, as promptly as is reasonably practicable following the date of any such request.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNITY AND EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT

4.1 Indemnification.

(a) The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify each Shareholder and each of such Shareholder’s trustees and beneficiaries and their respective directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants, controlling persons, advisors and successors and assigns of each of the foregoing in their capacity of such relationship to such Shareholder (collectively, “Indemnitees” with respect to such Shareholder) to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law against any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, witness, expert and consultant fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually incurred by any Indemnitee in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including an action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Company) to which such Indemnitee is, was, or at any time becomes a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to the extent arising from the related Shareholder’s entry into, or performance under, this Agreement and that otherwise involves or relates directly or indirectly to any facts, circumstances, events or other matters arising out of, or related to, the Merger Agreement or this Agreement.

(b) Not later than twenty (20) days after receipt by an Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding described in Section 4.1(a), such Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve it from any liability hereunder unless such omission materially prejudices the Company, or from any liability which it may have to any Indemnitee other than under this Agreement.

(c) With respect to any such action, suit or proceeding as to which an Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement or threat thereof, such Indemnitee shall have the right to choose counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company (it being understood that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Will & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP are deemed acceptable) to defend any such pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding, and such Indemnitee shall be entitled to conduct the defense of such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that all Indemnitees affiliated or associated with the Shareholder Group shall use a single such counsel (together with any required local counsel). Such Indemnitee will consider in good faith joint representation with other defendants in such action, suit or proceeding but shall not be obligated to agree to such joint representation or accept any other representation recommended by the Company. Such Indemnitee shall not be permitted to settle any such action, suit or proceeding without the written consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company will be entitled to participate in any such action, suit or proceeding at its own expense.

(d) Solely in the event of the written request of such Indemnitee, the Company may at its election assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee and following notice from the Company to such Indemnitee of the Company’s assumption of the defense thereof, the Company will not be liable to such Indemnitee under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below (but shall remain liable for judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection therewith to the extent that indemnification therefor was otherwise required under this Agreement). In such event, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in such

A - 7

action, suit or proceeding but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of the Company’s assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by such Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) such Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and such Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit or proceeding (in which event Section 4.1(c) shall apply) or (iii) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit or proceeding in each of which cases the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Company; provided, however, that all Indemnitees affiliated or associated with the Shareholder Group shall use a single such counsel (together with any required local counsel).

(e) The Company shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee pursuant hereto (i) in connection with any action, suit or proceeding that is initiated by such Indemnitee against the Company, Holdco or Antelope (unless such action, suit or proceeding was authorized in the specific case by action of the Board of Directors of the subject company, or is to enforce or obtain a declaration of such Indemnitee’s rights under the terms of any provision of this Agreement), or (ii) if it shall be determined by a final adjudication of a court of competent jurisdiction (from which there is no right of appeal) that such indemnification is not lawful (in which case the Company shall remain obligated for the contribution obligations under clause (j) below).

(c)

Other than in connection with any Direct Exchange, upon the exchange of any Exchangeable Units for Exchanged Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right, as of the effective date of such exchange, each Exchanged Share issued in exchange for an Exchangeable Unit shall be deemed (i) to have been first contributed by Holdings to the Partnership as a capital contribution in respect of its Common Units and (ii) then immediately thereafter to have been delivered by the Partnership to the holder exercising the Exchange Right and the Exchangeable Unit shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist.

unless, in each case, the equitably equivalent on a per Exchangeable Unit basis of such Holdings Shares, rights, options, securities, warrants, shares, evidences of indebtedness or other assets is issued or distributed substantially simultaneously to holders of the Exchangeable Units; provided, that for greater certainty, the above restrictions shall not apply (A) to dividends or distributions on Holdings Shares where an equal distribution is substantially simultaneously made on each Exchangeable Unit in accordance with Section 5.4(a) or (B) to any securities issued or distributed by Holdings in order to give effect to and to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and in accordance with, the Transaction Agreement.

Holdings will ensure that the record date for any event referred to in Section 3.5(a) or 3.5(b) hereof or (if no record date is applicable for such event) the effective date for any such event, will be the same with respect to both the Exchangeable Units and the Holdings Shares, and that such record date or effective date is not less than five Business Days after the date on which such event is declared or announced by Holdings (with contemporaneous notification thereof by Holdings to the Partnership and thereafter by the Partnership to the Limited Partners).

D-18

(e)

The General Partner agrees to use its best efforts to take or cause to be taken such steps as may be necessary for the purposes of ensuring that appropriate distributions are paid or other distributions are made by the Partnership, or subdivisions, redivisions or changes are made to the Exchangeable Units, in order to implement the required equitable equivalence with respect to distributions on the Holdings Shares and Exchangeable Units as provided for in this Section 3.5.

(f)

The Partnership shall not effect any Subdivision or Combination of Exchangeable Units other than in accordance with this Section 3.5

3.6

Segregation of Funds

Holdings will cause the Partnership to deposit a sufficient amount of funds in a separate account of the Partnership and segregate a sufficient amount of such other assets and property as is necessary to enable the Partnership to pay distributions and other amounts when due under Section 5.4(a) and to pay or otherwise satisfy its obligations under Article 2 of Schedule A hereto, as applicable.

3.7

Reservation of Holdings Shares

Holdings hereby represents, warrants and covenants in favor of the Partnership that Holdings has reserved for issuance and will, at all times while any Exchangeable Units (other than Exchangeable Units held by Holdings or its Subsidiaries) are outstanding, keep available, free from pre-emptive and other rights, out of its authorized and unissued share capital at least such number of Holdings Shares (or other shares or securities into which Holdings Shares may be reclassified or changed as contemplated by Section 3.4) without duplication (a) as is equal to the sum of (i) the number of Exchangeable Units issued and outstanding from time to time and (ii) the number of Exchangeable Units issuable upon the exercise of all rights to acquire Exchangeable Units outstanding from time to time and (b) as are now and may hereafter be required to enable and permit Holdings to meet its obligations under any other security or commitment pursuant to which Holdings may now or hereafter be required to issue Holdings Shares, and to enable and permit the Partnership to meet its obligations hereunder.

All such Holdings Shares shall be duly authorized and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance. In consideration of the issuance and delivery of each such Holdings Share, Holdings shall be deemed to have made a capital contribution to the Partnership as provided in Section 3.4(c).

3.10

Restriction on Transfers

(a)

Unless otherwise approved in writing by the General Partner in its sole discretion, no holder of Units may Transfer any interest in any Units, except Transfers (i) pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3.15(b) or (ii) following the end of the Restricted Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Transfer” shall not include an event that terminates the existence of a Partner for income tax purposes (including, without limitation, a change in entity classification of a Partner under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3, termination of a partnership pursuant to Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), a sale of assets by, or liquidation of, a Partner pursuant to an election under Code Section 338, or merger, severance, or allocation within a trust or among sub-trusts of a trust that is a Partner), but that does not terminate the existence of such Partner under applicable state law (or, in the case of a trust that is a Partner, does not terminate the trusteeship of the fiduciaries under such trust with respect to all the Partnership Interests of such trust that is a Partner).

(b)

The restrictions contained in Section 3.15(a) shall not apply to any Transfer (each, a “Permitted Transfer”) (i) (A) pursuant to a Holdings Control Transaction, (B) pursuant to the exercise of an Exchange Right in accordance with the terms of this

D-21

Agreement or (C) by a Partner to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) by any Partner, to any member of such Partner’s immediate family, or to trusts solely for the benefit of such Partner (or, to the extent that such Partner is not a natural person, the ultimate beneficial owner of the Units held by such Partner) or any member of such Partner’s (or such beneficial owner’s) immediate family, by will or otherwise upon the death of such Partner or otherwise for estate planning purposes, by operation of law, to any other Partner, or for charitable purposes or as charitable gifts or donations, and (iii) to any Person who is a Permitted Transferee as defined on Schedule B; provided, however, that (A) the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to apply to Units after any Permitted Transfer of such Units, and (B) in the case of the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), the transferees of the Units so Transferred shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)

By acceptance of the Transfer of any Unit, each transferee of a Unit (including any nominee holder or an agent or representative acquiring such Units for the account of another Person) (i) shall be admitted to the Partnership as a Partner with respect to the Units so transferred to such transferee when any such Transfer or admission is reflected in the Record, (ii) shall be deemed to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (iii) shall become the Record Holder of the Units so transferred, (iv) grants powers of attorney to the General Partner, as specified herein, and (v) makes the consents and waivers contained in this Agreement. The Transfer of any Units and the admission of any new Partner shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

(d)

No change of name or address of a Limited Partner, no Transfer of a Unit and no admission of a substituted Limited Partner in the Partnership will be effective for the purposes of this Agreement until the requirements set out in this Article 3 have been satisfied, and until that change, Transfer, substitution or addition is duly reflected in an amendment to the Record as may be required by the Act. The names and addresses of the Limited Partners as reflected from time to time in the Record, as from time to time amended, will be conclusive as to those facts for all purposes of the Partnership.

(e)

Where the transferee complies with all applicable provisions and is entitled to become a Limited Partner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner shall admit the transferee to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner and the Limited Partners hereby consent to the admission of, and will admit, the transferee to the Partnership as a Limited Partner, without further act of the Limited Partners (other than as may be required by law).

3.16

Notice of Change to General Partner

Amendment of Record

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may effect such filings, recordings, registrations and amendments to the Record and to any other documents and at any places as in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership are necessary or advisable to reflect changes in the membership of the Partnership, Transfers of Units and dissolution of the Partnership as provided in this Agreement and to constitute a transferee as a Limited Partner.

3.19

Non-Recognition of Nominees

Units may be held by nominees on behalf of the beneficial owners of the Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in this Agreement, as required by Law or as recognized by the General Partner in its sole discretion, no Person will be recognized (including in any case in which the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code) by the Partnership or any Limited Partner as holding any Unit on behalf of another Person with the beneficial interest in that other Person, and the Partnership and Limited Partners will not be bound or compelled in any way to recognize (even when having actual notice) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Unit or in any fractional part of a Unit or any other rights in respect of any Unit except an absolute right to the entirety of the Unit in the Limited Partner shown on the Record as holder of that Unit.

3.20

Incapacity, Death, Insolvency or Bankruptcy

Where a Person becomes entitled to Units on the incapacity, death, insolvency, or bankruptcy of a Limited Partner, or otherwise by operation of Law, in addition to the requirements of Section 3.15, that entitlement will not be recognized or entered into the Record until that Person:

(a)

has produced evidence satisfactory to the Registrar and Transfer Agent of that Person’s entitlement; and

(b)

has delivered any other evidence, approvals and consents in respect to that entitlement as the Registrar and Transfer Agent may require and as may be required by Law or by this Agreement.

D-23

3.22

Form of Units

(a)

Units shall not be certificated unless otherwise determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion. If the Partnership determines that one or more Units shall be certificated, each such certificate shall be signed by or in the name of the Partnership, by the Chief Executive Officer and any other officer designated by the General Partner, representing the number of Units held by such holder. Such certificate shall be in such form as the General Partner may determine and shall contain such legends as required by Law or as deemed appropriate by the General Partner to alert third parties to the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in this Agreement. Any or all of such signatures on any certificate representing one or more Units may be a facsimile, engraved or printed, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(b)

If Units are certificated, the General Partner may direct that a new certificate representing one or more Units be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Partnership alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon delivery to the General Partner of an affidavit of the owner or owners of such certificate, setting forth such allegation. The General Partner may require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner’s legal representative, to give the Partnership a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of any such new certificate.

(c)

Upon surrender to the Partnership or the Registrar and Transfer Agent of a certificate for one or more Units, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate evidence of succession, assignment or authority to Transfer, in compliance with the provisions hereof, the Partnership shall issue a new certificate representing one or more Units to the Person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the General Partner may prescribe such additional rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate relating to the issue, Transfer and registration of Units.

3.23

Record Holders

In accordance with Section 3.15, the Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the Limited Partner with respect to any Units and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not the Partnership shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Units, as between the Partnership on the one hand and such other Person on the other hand, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Units. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any Partner.

no tender offer, share exchange offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction with respect to Holdings Shares (a “Holdings Offer”) will be proposed or recommended by Holdings or the Holdings Board of Directors or otherwise effected with the consent or approval of the Holdings Board of Directors unless the holders of Exchangeable Units (other than Holdings and its Subsidiaries) are entitled to participate in such Holdings Offer to the same extent and on an equitably and economically equivalent basis as the holders of Holdings Shares, without discrimination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except in order to permit the Holdings Board of Directors to fulfill its fiduciary duties under applicable law, neither Holdings nor the Holdings Board of Directors will approve or recommend any Holdings Offer or take any action in furtherance of a Holdings Offer unless, and Holdings will act in good faith to put in place procedures or to cause the Transfer Agent to put in place procedures to ensure that, the holders of Exchangeable Units may participate in such Holdings Offer and any exchange required thereby shall be conditional upon and shall only be effective if the Holdings Shares tendered or deposited under such Holdings Offer are taken up); and

(b)

no tender offer, share exchange offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction with respect to Exchangeable Units (a “Units Offer”) will be proposed or recommended by Holdings or the Holdings Board of Directors or otherwise effected with the consent or approval of the Holdings Board of Directors unless the holders of Holdings Shares (other than Holdings and its Subsidiaries) are entitled to participate in such Units Offer to the same extent and on an equitably and economically equivalent basis as the holders of Exchangeable Units, without discrimination.

(a)

There shall be established for each Partner on the books of the Partnership as of the date such Partner becomes a Partner a capital account (each being a “Capital Account”). Each Capital Contribution by any Partner, if any, shall be credited to the Capital Account of such Partner on the date such Capital Contribution is made to the Partnership. In addition, each Partner’s Capital Account shall be (a) credited with (i) such Partner’s allocable share of any Net Income of the Partnership and any items in the nature of income or gain that are specially allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.2(b), and (ii) the amount of any Partnership liabilities that are assumed by the Partner or secured by any Partnership property distributed to the Partner, (b) debited with (i) the amount of distributions (and deemed distributions) to such Partner of cash or the Carrying Value of other property so distributed, (ii) such Partner’s allocable share of Net Loss of the Partnership and any items in the nature of deduction or loss that are specially allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 5.2(b), and (iii) the amount of any liabilities of the Partner assumed by the Partnership or which are secured by any property contributed by the Partner to the Partnership and (c) otherwise maintained in accordance with the provisions of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Any other item which is required to be reflected in a Partner’s Capital Account under Section 704(b) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder or otherwise under this Agreement shall be so reflected. The General Partner shall make such adjustments to Capital Accounts as it determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate to ensure allocations are made in accordance with a Partner’s interest in the Partnership. Interest shall not be payable on Capital Account balances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the General Partner shall maintain the Capital Accounts of the Partners in accordance with the principles and requirements set forth in Section 704(b) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

D-26

(d)

Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the General Partner shall determine, in its sole discretion, that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to give economic effect to the manner in which distributions are made to the Partners pursuant to the provisions of Sections 5.4 and 13.3, the General Partner may make such modification.

Allocation for Capital Account Purposes

(a)

After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.2(b), Net Income (Net Loss) of the Partnership for each Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be allocated among the Capital Accounts of the Partners in a manner that as closely as possible gives economic effect to the manner in which distributions are made to the Partners pursuant to the provisions of Sections 5.4(a)(ii).

(b)

Special Allocations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.2, the following special allocations shall be made for each Fiscal Year or other taxable period:

(i)

Partnership Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.2, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, each Partner shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6), 1.704-2(g)(2) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(i), or any successor provision. For purposes of this Section 5.2(b)(i), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) with respect to such taxable period (other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(iii) and (iv)). This Section 5.2(b)(i) is intended to comply with the Partnership Minimum Gain chargeback requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

D-27

(ii)

Chargeback of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 5.2 (other than Section 5.2(b)(i)), except as provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Partnership taxable period, any Partner with a share of Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain at the beginning of such taxable period shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in the manner and amounts provided in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii), or any successor provisions. For purposes of this Section 5.2(b)(ii), each Partner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance shall be determined, and the allocation of income and gain required hereunder shall be effected, prior to the application of any other allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b), other than Section 5.2(b)(i) and other than an allocation pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(v) and (vi), with respect to such taxable period. This Section 5.2(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the chargeback of items of income and gain requirement in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)

Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 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, to the extent required by the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible unless such deficit balance is otherwise eliminated pursuant to Sections 5.2(b)(i) or (ii). This Section 5.2(b)(iii) is intended to qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv)

Gross Income Allocations. In the event any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Partnership taxable period in excess of the sum of (A) the amount such Partner is required to restore pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (B) the amount such Partner is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i)(5), such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership gross income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.2(b)(iv) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account as adjusted after all other allocations provided for in this Section 5.2 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.2(b)(iv) were not in this Agreement.

D-28

(v)

Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated to the holders of the Common Units and the Exchangeable Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. If the General Partner determines that the Partnership’s Nonrecourse Deductions should be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the General Partner is authorized to revise the prescribed ratio to the numerically closest ratio that does satisfy such requirements.

(vi)

Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable period shall be allocated 100% to the Partner that bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Partner bears the Economic Risk of Loss with respect to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions attributable thereto shall be allocated between or among such Partners in accordance with the ratios in which they share such Economic Risk of Loss.

(vii)

Nonrecourse Liabilities. Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Partnership described in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be allocated among the Partners in a manner chosen by the General Partner and consistent with such Treasury Regulation.

(viii)

Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the U.S. Treasury Regulations.

(ix)

Curative Allocation.

(A)

The Required Allocations are intended to comply with certain requirements of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Partners that, to the extent possible, all Required Allocations shall be offset either with other Required Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Partnership income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 5.2(b)(ix). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5 (other than the Required Allocations), the General Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations of Partnership income, gain, loss or

D-29

deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate (taking into account required future allocations) so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partner’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Required Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Partnership items were allocated pursuant to the economic agreement among the Partners.

(B)

The General Partner shall, with respect to each taxable period, (1) apply the provisions of Section 5.2(b)(ix)(A) in whatever order is most likely to minimize the economic distortions that might otherwise result from the Required Allocations, and (2) divide all allocations pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(ix)(A) among the Partners in a manner that is likely to minimize such economic distortions.

5.3

Allocation of Net Income and Losses for Tax Purposes

(a)

Except as otherwise provided herein, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(a).

(b)

In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any Property contributed to the capital of the Partnership and with respect to reverse Code Section 704(c) allocations described in U.S. Treasury Regulations 1.704-3(a)(6) shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Partners so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such Property to the Partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its initial Carrying Value or its Carrying Value determined pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) (computed in accordance with the definition of Carrying Value) using any allocation method under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3 as the General Partner may decide. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the General Partner in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3, Section 704(c) of the Code (and the principles thereof), and U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Partner’s Capital Account or share of Net Income, Net Loss, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(c)

The General Partner shall determine all matters concerning allocations for tax purposes not expressly provided for herein in its sole discretion. For the proper administration of the Partnership and for the preservation of uniformity of Units (or any portion or class or classes thereof), the General Partner may (i) amend the provisions of this Agreement as appropriate (x) to reflect the proposal or

D-30

promulgation of U.S. Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) or Section 704(c) of the Code or (y) otherwise to preserve or achieve uniformity of Units (or any portion or class or classes thereof), and (ii) adopt and employ or modify such conventions and methods as the General Partner determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate for (A) the determination for U.S. federal income tax purposes of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit and the allocation of such items among Partners and between transferors and transferees under this Agreement and pursuant to the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, (B) the determination of the identities and tax classification of Partners, (C) the valuation of Partnership assets and the determination of tax basis, (D) the allocation of asset values and tax basis, and (E) the adoption and maintenance of accounting methods.

(d)

For purposes of determining the items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit allocable to any Partner for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to any period, such items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, quarterly or other basis, as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, using any permissible method under Section 706 of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(e)

Allocations that would otherwise be made to a Partner under the provisions of this Article 5 shall instead be made to the beneficial owner of Partnership Interests held by a nominee in any case in which the nominee has furnished the identity of such owner to the Partnership in accordance with Section 6031(c) of the Code or any other method determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

5.4

Distributions

(a)

Subject to Sections 5.4(c) and 5.4(f), if a dividend or distribution shall have been declared and be payable in respect of a Holdings Share (excluding where a dividend or distribution is effected in accordance with Section 3.5), the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to:

(i)

make a distribution in respect of each Exchangeable Unit in an amount equal to the dividend or distribution payable in respect of a Holdings Share; and

(ii)

make a distribution in respect of the outstanding Common Units in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the dividends or distributions payable in respect of the Holdings Shares;

(b)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to take any action that may be required to cause the Partnership or any of its Affiliates to comply with any withholding requirements established under the Code (including pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446 and 3406), or any other federal, state, local or foreign law. To the extent that the Partnership is required to or elects to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount

D-31

resulting from the allocation or distribution of income to any Partner (including by reason of Section 1446 of the Code) or to the extent that any payments made to the Partnership are subject to withholding as a result of such payments being attributable to any particular Partner, the General Partner may treat the amount withheld as a distribution of cash to such Partner pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 13.3 in the amount of such withholding from or in respect of such Partner. The General Partner may treat taxes paid by the Partnership on behalf of, or amounts previously withheld with respect to, all or less than all of the Partners, as a distribution of cash to such Partners. In any such case, unless such amount was withheld from amounts otherwise distributable to such Partner hereunder, it shall be treated as an advance to such Partner which shall be repayable on demand and if not repaid may be set off against subsequent distributions to such Partner.

(c)

Notwithstanding Section 5.4(a), in the event of the dissolution of the Partnership, all receipts received during or after the Fiscal Year quarter in which the Liquidation Date occurs shall be applied and distributed solely in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 13.3.

(d)

Each distribution in respect of a Partnership Interest shall be paid by the Partnership, directly or through the Registrar and Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest as of the Record Date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnership’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.

(e)

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Partnership, and the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership, shall not be required to make a distribution to a Partner or a Record Holder if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable Law.

(f)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4(a), the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may authorize that to the extent that the General Partner determines in good faith that expenses or other obligations of Holdings are related to its role as the General Partner or the business and affairs of Holdings that are conducted through the Partnership or any of the Partnership’s direct or indirect Subsidiaries, cash (and, for the avoidance of doubt, only cash) distributions may be made to Holdings (which distributions shall be made without pro rata distributions to the other Partners) in amounts required for Holdings to pay: (i) any tax liabilities of Holdings, (ii) any operating, administrative and other similar costs incurred by Holdings (including (w) payments in respect of indebtedness and equity securities of Holdings to the extent the proceeds are used or will be used by Holdings to pay expenses or other obligations described in this Section 5.4(f) (in either case only to the extent economically equivalent indebtedness or equity securities of the Partnership were not issued to Holdings), (x) indemnification obligations of Holdings owing to directors, officers, employees or other persons under Holdings’ articles, charter, by-laws or other governing documents or pursuant to written

D-32

agreements with any such person, (y) obligations of Holdings in respect of director and officer insurance (including premiums therefor) and (z) payments pursuant to any legal, tax, accounting and other professional fees and expenses); (iii) any judgments, settlements, penalties, fines or other costs and expenses in respect of any claims against, or any litigation or proceedings involving, Holdings; (iv) fees and expenses (including any underwriters discounts and commissions) related to any securities offering, investment or acquisition transaction (whether or not successful) authorized by the board of directors of Holdings, including any fees and expenses incurred in connection the registration, qualification or listing of any Holdings Shares (or other shares or securities into which Holdings Shares may be reclassified or changed as contemplated by Section 3.4) as contemplated by Section 3.10; and (v) other fees and expenses in connection with the maintenance of the existence of Holdings (including any costs or expenses associated with being a public company listed on any national securities exchange and compliance with applicable Laws or the requirements of a Governmental Authority). For the avoidance of doubt, distributions made under this Section 5.4(f) may not be used to pay or facilitate dividends or distributions on the Holdings Shares and must be used solely for one of the express purposes set forth pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. All distributions under this Section 5.4(f) shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code.

5.5

Repayments

If, as determined in good faith by the General Partner, it appears that any Partner has received an amount under this Article 5 which is in excess of that Partner’s entitlement, the Partner will, promptly upon notice from the General Partner, reimburse the Partnership to the extent of the excess, and failing immediate reimbursement, the General Partner may withhold the amount of the excess (with interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) from time to time calculated and compounded monthly) from further distributions otherwise due to the Partner.

Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the consent of each Limited Partner, if any, adversely affected thereby in any material respect, if such amendment or action would (i) convert a Limited Partner into a general partner of the Partnership (except as a result of the Limited Partner becoming the General Partner in accordance with the provisions hereof), (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, or (ii) amend this Section 7.5.

7.7

Indemnity of General Partner

(a)

To the fullest extent permitted by Law but subject to the limitations expressly provided in this Agreement, the General Partner, the Tax Matters Partner, a Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an Affiliate of the General Partner or any Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate, or any Person who is or was serving at the request of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another Person (collectively, an “Indemnitee”), will be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities joint or several expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses on a solicitor/client basis), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts (collectively, “Damages”) arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as:

(i)

the General Partner, the Tax Matters Partner, a Departing Partner, any Person who is or was an Affiliate of the General Partner or any Departing Partner;

(ii)

any Person who is or was an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate; or

(iii)

any Person who is or was serving at the request of the General Partner or any Departing Partner or any Affiliate as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another Person,

except to the extent such Damages resulted or arose from any act or omission of the General Partner or any other Indemnitee that (a) was outside the scope of the authority conferred on the General Partner by this Agreement or by Law, (b) was in breach of, or was performed or omitted fraudulently or in bad faith or constituted gross negligence or willful or reckless disregard of the General Partner’s obligations under, this Agreement or (c) was in breach of the General Partner’s fiduciary duty under Section 7.18(c). The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction will not create a presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified above.

Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7(a) will be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.

(b)

To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding will, from time to time, be advanced by the Partnership prior to the final disposition of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay that amount if it is determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in this Section 7.7.

D-39

(c)

The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 will be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of Law or otherwise, and will continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in the capacity that entitled it to such indemnification.

(d)

The Partnership may purchase and maintain (or reimburse the General Partner or its Affiliates for the cost of) insurance, on behalf of those Indemnitees (other than the General Partner itself) as the General Partner determines, against any liability that may be asserted against or expense that may be incurred by that Indemnitee in connection with the Partnership’s activities, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify those Indemnitees against those liabilities under the provisions of this Agreement.

7.8

Other Matters Concerning the General Partner

(a)

The General Partner may rely and will be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

(b)

The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisors selected by it, and any act taken or omitted in reliance upon the opinion (including, without limitation, an opinion of counsel) of any of those Persons as to matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within that Person’s professional or expert competence will be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with that opinion.

(c)

The General Partner has the right, in respect of any of its power, authority or obligations under this Agreement, to act through any of its duly authorized officers.

(d)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) it shall be deemed not to be a breach of the General Partner’s or any other Indemnitee’s duties or any other obligation of any type whatsoever of the General Partner or any other Indemnitee for the Indemnitee (other than the General Partner) to engage in such business interests and activities in preference to or to the exclusion of any Group Member, (iii) the General Partner and the Indemnitees shall have no obligation hereunder or as a result of any duty otherwise existing at Law or otherwise to present business opportunities to any Group Member and (iv) the doctrine of “corporate opportunity” or other analogous doctrine shall not apply to any such Indemnitee.

Any services rendered to a Group Member by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates shall be on terms that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership; provided, however, that the requirements of this Section 7.9 conclusively shall be deemed satisfied and not a breach of any duty hereunder or existing at Law or otherwise as to any transaction (i) the terms of which are no less favorable to the Partnership than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or (ii) that is fair and reasonable to the Partnership, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be or have been particularly favorable or advantageous to the Partnership). The provisions of Section shall apply to the rendering of services described in this Section 7.9.

7.10

Removal of the General Partner

Any determination by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates to enter into such contracts shall be in its sole discretion.

(c)

Notwithstanding any standard of care or duty imposed under the Act or any applicable Law, in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the General Partner agrees and acknowledges that it will owe to the Limited Partners the same fiduciary duties that would be owed to the shareholders of a limited company formed under the laws of the Republic of Singapore if the General Partner were a member of the board of directors of such company, except where another standard is expressly set forth in this Agreement (e.g., “sole discretion” or “good faith”), in which event such other standard shall apply.

(d)

warranties other than as to ownership and authority) or as required by law (e.g., Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8 or W-9); provided, however, that, with respect to any exercise of the Exchange Right prior to the third anniversary of the Unit Effective Time, unless waived by Holdings, it shall be a further condition precedent to the obligation of the Partnership to repurchase such Units, and the Holder of such Units shall not be permitted to exercise an Exchange Right, unless: (x) Holdings has received a written opinion (a “7874 Opinion”) of Ernst & Young LLP (or if Ernst & Young LLP is unwilling or unable to perform, another independent nationally recognized law or accounting firm) (the “Tax Firm”) to the effect that the exercise of such Exchange Right should not cause Holdings to be treated as (1) a “surrogate foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 7874(a)(2)(B) of the Code) or (2) a “domestic corporation” (within the meaning of Section 7874(b) of the Code) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any successor sections of the Code with respect to (1) and (2) above following any change in law) and (y) Holdings’ independent auditor has determined (an “Auditor Determination”) that no reserve shall be required for financial accounting purposes (pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, as such guidance may be modified by future FASB interpretations, statements, or other FASB guidance) relating to Code Section 7874 of the Code as a result of the exercise of such Exchange Right. The Exchange Notice shall (A) specify the number of Exchangeable Units in respect of which the holder is exercising the Exchange Right (the “Subject Units”) and (B) state the Business Day on which the holder desires to have the Partnership exchange the Subject Units (the “Exchange Date”); provided, that (x) the Exchange Date must be within 10 Business Days of the date on which the Exchange Notice is received by the Partnership (unless otherwise extended by Holdings in connection with obtaining the 7874 Opinion and Auditor Determination as provided herein) and (y) each holder of Exchangeable Units, together with its Affiliates, may submit only one Exchange Notice per calendar month.

(c)

Holdings shall act in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the 7874 Opinion and the Auditor Determination as soon as reasonably practical following the exercise by a holder of an Exchange Right. In furtherance of the foregoing, to better ensure that the analysis necessary to obtain the 7874 Opinion and the Auditor Determination can be completed as soon as practicable following the date on which a holder exercises an Exchange Right, prior to the end of the Restricted Period, Holdings shall (i) retain the Tax Firm to (a) deliver to Holdings a 7874 Opinion (based on the assumption that the Exchange Date is the day immediately following the last day of the Restricted Period), or to do all work necessary to render such an opinion and (b) “bring down” or otherwise render such an opinion (assuming no change in law or fact would prevent it from doing so) at each such time that a holder exercises an Exchange Right (unless Holdings intends to waive the 7874 Opinion condition) and (ii) retain its independent auditor to complete the work that would be required for the auditor to make the Auditor Determination (based on the assumption that the Exchange Date is the day immediately following the last day of the Restricted Period). At the request

D-60

of any holder of Exchangeable Units, Holdings (after consulting with its auditor and the Tax Firm) will promptly notify such holder (x) whether the 7874 Opinion or the Auditor Determination can reasonably be expected to be obtained based on the facts and law in effect at the time of such request or (y) whether or not the Partnership would be prepared to waive the requirement that the 7874 Opinion or the Auditor Determination would be required in connection with a given Exchange Notice.

2.2

Share Settlement Option

If the General Partner elects to repurchase the Subject Units for Holdings Shares, and provided that the Exchange Notice is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of this Schedule A, effective at the close of business on the Exchange Date:

(a)

the Partnership shall have, and shall be deemed to have, repurchased the Subject Units for cancellation in consideration for the transfer to such holder of the applicable number of Exchanged Shares and such holder shall be deemed to have transferred to the Partnership all of such holder’s right, title and interest in and to the Subject Units;

(b)

Holdings shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to such holder, for and on behalf of the Partnership and in the manner provided for in Section 2.4 of this Schedule A, the applicable number of Exchanged Shares; and

(c)

the Partnership shall issue to Holdings a number of Common Units equal to the number of Exchanged Shares delivered to such holder pursuant to Section 3.2(b), in consideration for Holdings delivering such Exchanged Shares to such holder.

2.3

Cash Settlement Option

If the General Partner elects to repurchase the Subject Units for the Cash Amount, and provided that the Exchange Notice is not revoked by the holder in the manner specified in Section 2.5 of this Schedule A, effective at the close of business on the Exchange Date:

(a)

the Partnership shall have, and shall be deemed to have, repurchased the Subject Units for cancellation in consideration for the payment to such holder of the aggregate Cash Amount and such holder shall be deemed to have transferred to the Partnership all of such holder’s right, title and interest in and to the Subject Units; and

(b)

the Partnership shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to such holder the applicable Cash Amount.

2.4

Effect of Exchange

(a)

Subject to compliance by the applicable holder of the Subject Units with the terms of this Schedule A, the Partnership (or Holdings for and on behalf of the Partnership) shall deliver or cause the Registrar and Transfer Agent to deliver to

D-61

the relevant holder, as applicable (i) the applicable Exchanged Shares (which shares shall be duly issued as fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance), or (ii) a check representing the applicable Cash Amount, in each case, less any amounts withheld on account of tax pursuant to Section 5.4 of this Agreement, and such delivery by or on behalf of the Partnership or by the Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be deemed to be payment of and shall satisfy and discharge all liability for the total consideration payable or issuable.

(b)

On and after the close of business on the Exchange Date, the holders of the Subject Units shall cease to be holders of such Subject Units and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a holder in respect thereof, other than the right to receive the applicable consideration, unless payment of the consideration is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 2. On and after the close of business on the Exchange Date, provided that presentation and surrender of certificates (if applicable) and payment of the applicable consideration has been made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the holder of the Subject Units exchanged for Holdings Shares shall thereafter be considered and deemed for all purposes to be a holder of the Holdings Shares delivered to it.

(c)

As a condition to delivery of the consideration, the Partnership and the Registrar and Transfer Agent may require presentation and surrender at the office of the Partnership (or at any office of the Registrar and Transfer Agent as may be specified by the Partnership) of such documents and instruments as are contemplated by Section 2.1(b).

(d)

Notwithstanding Section 2.4(b) of this Schedule A, where a record date in respect of a distribution occurs prior to the Exchange Date and there is any declared and unpaid distribution on any Exchangeable Unit exchanged hereunder, subject to Section 4.1 of this Schedule A, such distribution shall remain payable and shall be paid in the applicable form on the designated payment date to the former holder of the Exchangeable Unit so exchanged hereunder.

(e)

If only a part of the Exchangeable Units represented by any certificate is exchanged, a new certificate for the balance of such Exchangeable Units shall be issued to the holder at the expense of the Partnership.

(f)

All filing fees, transfer taxes, sales taxes, document stamps or other similar charges levied by any Governmental Authority in connection with the repurchase of the Exchangeable Units pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Partnership; provided, however, that the holder of such Exchangeable Units shall pay any such fees, taxes, stamps or similar charges that may be payable as a result of any transfer of the consideration payable in respect of such Exchangeable Units to a Person other than such holder. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party will bear its own costs in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

D-62

2.5

Revocation Right

A holder of Subject Units may, by notice in writing given by the holder to the Partnership before the close of business on the 5th Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date, withdraw its Exchange Notice, in which event such Exchange Notice shall be null and void.

2.6

Mandatory Exchange

In the event that:

(a)

at any time there remain outstanding fewer than five percent (5%) of the Exchangeable Units outstanding as of the Unit Effective Time (other than Exchangeable Units held by Holdings and as such number of Units may be adjusted in accordance with the Agreement to give effect to a Combination or Subdivision of, or unit distribution on, the Exchangeable Units, or any issue or distribution of rights to acquire Exchangeable Units or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Exchangeable Units following the Unit Effective Time); or

(b)

a Holdings Control Transaction occurs with respect to which the General Partner has determined in good faith that such Holdings Control Transaction involves a bona fide third party and is not for the primary purpose of causing the exchange of the Exchangeable Units in connection with such Holdings Control Transaction,

then on prior written notice given by the Partnership to the holders of Exchangeable Units at least fifteen days prior to such mandatory exchange, in the case of the foregoing Sections 2.6(a) and 2.6(b), and on the Business Day following the day on which the holders of the Exchangeable Units failed to take such action in the case of the foregoing Section 2.6(c), the Partnership may cause a mandatory exchange of all of the outstanding Exchangeable Units (which shall be deemed to be the Subject Units), on such date as is specified by the Partnership in such notice (which shall be deemed to be the Exchange Date), pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Schedule A, and for greater certainty, the holders of Exchangeable Units shall not have the right to revoke such mandatory exchange pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Schedule A.

2.7

Attached Voting Shares

In the event that Attached Voting Shares are issued in conjunction with the Exchangeable Units, then for all purposes of this Agreement (including for all purposes of this Schedule A) each and every reference to an Exchangeable Unit shall be deemed also to refer to a corresponding number of Attached Voting Shares, and no Exchangeable Unit may be transferred, presented for exchange, or otherwise conveyed in any manner whatsoever unless accompanied by a corresponding number of Attached Voting Shares.

2.8

Direct Exchange Right of Holdings

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 2 of this Schedule A or Section 3.4(c) of the Agreement, Holdings may to the extent required by Law or otherwise in its sole discretion, elect to effect the exchange of Subject Units for Exchanged Shares or the Cash Amount through a direct exchange of such Units and consideration between the holders of such Units and

D-63

Holdings (a “Direct Exchange”). Holdings may, at any time prior to an Exchange Date, deliver written notice (a “Direct Exchange Notice”) to the Partnership and the holder of any Subject Units setting forth its election to exercise its right to consummate a Direct Exchange. A Direct Exchange Notice may be revoked by Holdings at any time; provided, that any such revocation does not prejudice the ability of the holders of Subject Units to consummate their Exchange Right on the Exchange Date. Upon Direct Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.8, Holdings shall acquire the Subject Units and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Units; provided, that in the hands of Holdings such Units shall be Common Units. Except as otherwise provided by this Section 2.8, a Direct Exchange shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in the same manner as the relevant exchange would have been consummated if Holdings had not delivered a Direct Exchange Notice.

ARTICLE 3

GENERAL

3.1

Amendments

3.2

Fractional Shares

A holder of Exchangeable Units shall not be entitled to any fraction of a Holdings Share and no certificates representing any such fractional interest shall be issued, and such holder otherwise entitled to a fractional interest shall only be entitled to receive the nearest whole number of Holdings Shares, rounded down.

3.3

Tax Treatment

This Schedule A shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of the Partnership as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.
