If there is more than one member of the Executive Group, the failure of any one member thereof to perform its obligations hereunder shall not excuse or affect the obligations of any other member thereof, and the closing of the purchases from such other members by the Company shall not excuse, or constitute a waiver of its rights against, the defaulting member.
5. Payment for Units. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, if at any time the Company elects to purchase any Units pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall pay the purchase price for the Units it purchases (i) first, by the cancellation of any indebtedness, if any, owing from Executive to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (which indebtedness shall be

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) to the extent that the purchase of such Units or the payment to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries of a cash dividend or distribution by a Subsidiary of the Company to fund such purchase (together with any other purchases of Units pursuant to Section 4 or pursuant to similar provisions in agreements with employees or other consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries of which the Company has at such time been given or has given notice and together with cash dividends and distributions to fund such other purchases) would result (A) in a violation of any law, statute, rule, regulation, policy, order, writ, injunction, decree or judgment promulgated or entered by any federal, state, local or foreign court or governmental authority applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their property, (B) after giving effect thereto, in a Financing Default, (C) in a violation of the LLC Agreement, or (D) in adverse accounting treatment for the Company, or (ii) if immediately prior to such purchase there exists a Financing Default which prohibits such purchase, dividend or distribution, in each case which prohibits either of the cash payments referred to in clause (ii) of Section 5(a) (either directly or indirectly as a result of the prohibition of a related cash dividend or distribution), the portion of the applicable cash payment so prohibited shall be made, to the extent such payment is not prohibited, by the Company’s delivery of a junior subordinated promissory note (which shall be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment of any debt outstanding under the Financing Agreements and any modifications, renewals, extensions, replacements and refunding of all such indebtedness) of the Company (a “Junior Subordinated Note”) in a principal amount equal to the balance of the purchase price, which note shall (x) (I) be payable, in the event of a termination of service referenced in Sections 4.1(a)(i), 4.1(a)(ii) and 4.1(a)(iii)(B), as soon as the conditions set forth in this Section 5(b) no longer exist and (II) accrue interest, compounded annually, payable concurrently with the payment of principal, at the prevailing interest rate under the Company’s senior debt financing documents as in effect on the date of issuance, but in no event shall such interest rate exceed LIBOR plus four percent (4%) or (y) (I) be payable, in the event of a termination of service referenced in Section 4.1(a)(iii)(A), on the fifth anniversary of the issuance thereof, and (II) accrue interest, compounded annually, payable concurrently with the payment of principal, at the applicable Applicable Federal Rate on the date of issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the conditions set forth in preceding sentence exists which prohibits such payment by delivery of a Junior Subordinated Note, the portion of the payment so prohibited shall be made, to the extent such payment is not prohibited, by the Company’s delivery of a new class of preferred units of the Company that will be senior to all other classes of units in the Company (“New Preferred Units”) having an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the balance of the purchase price and accruing dividends annually at a yield equivalent to the interest rate that would have been payable on the aforementioned Junior
Subordinated Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a purchase of Units pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(iii)(A), the Company shall deliver a Junior Subordinated Note in a principal amount equal to all or a portion of the cash purchase price (in lieu of paying such portion of the purchase price in cash), which Junior Subordinated Note shall mature on the fifth anniversary of its issuance and accrue interest, compounded annually, payable concurrently with the payment of principal, at the applicable Applicable Federal Rate on the date of issuance; provided that if any of the conditions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 5(b) exists which prohibits such payment by delivery of a Junior Subordinated Note, the portion of the payment so prohibited shall be made, to the extent such payment is not prohibited, by the Company’s delivery of New Preferred Units having an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the balance of the purchase price and accruing dividends, compounded annually, at a yield equivalent to the interest rate that would have been payable on the aforementioned Junior Subordinated Note. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts (or shall cause PGA Holdings to use its reasonable efforts) to repurchase Units pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(i), Section 4.1(a)(ii) or Section 4.1(a)(iii)(B) with cash and/or to prepay any Junior Subordinated Notes or redeem any New Preferred Units issued in connection with such repurchase of Units. The Company shall have the right set forth in clause (i) of Section 5(a) whether or not the member of the Executive Group selling such Units is an obligor of the Company. Any Junior Subordinated Note (or New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof) shall be prepaid (or redeemed) upon a Sale of the Company from net cash proceeds, if any, payable to the Company or its unitholders; to the extent that sufficient net cash proceeds are not so payable, the Junior Subordinated Note (or New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof) shall be cancelled in exchange for such other non-cash consideration received by unitholders in the Sale of the Company having a fair market value equal to the principal of and accrued interest on the note. Any Junior Subordinated Note (or New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof) also shall be prepaid (or redeemed) upon the consummation of an initial Public Offering from net cash proceeds, if any, payable to the Company or its unitholders; to the extent that sufficient net cash proceeds are not so payable, the Junior Subordinated Note (or New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof) shall be cancelled in exchange for such other non-cash consideration received by unitholders in the initial Public Offering having a fair market value equal to the principal of and accrued interest on the note. The principal of and accrued interest on any such note may be prepaid (and New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof may be redeemed) in whole or in part at any time at the option of the Company. If interest (or a cash distribution) is required to be paid on any Junior Subordinated Note (or New Preferred Units issued in lieu thereof) and any of the conditions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 5(b) exists or if any such cash payment would result in adverse accounting treatment for the Company which prohibits the payment of such interest (or distributions) in cash, such interest may be cumulated and accrued until and to the extent that such prohibition no longer exists.
