SECTION 2.1. The Board.

(a) TSG Designees.

(i) For so long as the TSG Investor holds a number of shares of Common Stock representing at least the percentage set forth below of shares of Common Stock held by them immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company shall take all Necessary Action to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as Directors at each annual or special meeting of shareholders at which Directors are to be elected that number of individuals designated by the TSG Investor (each, a “TSG Designee”) such that, if each such TSG Designee is elected, will result in the number of TSG Designees then serving on the Board as shown below across from such percentage.

(ii) In addition, for so long as the TSG Investor holds at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Common Stock held by them immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, upon receiving a written request from the TSG Investor, the Company will take all Necessary Action to cause the Board as soon as practicable to: (a) increase the size of the Board to permit the inclusion on the Board of a number of additional directors specified by the TSG Investor such that TSG Designees comprise a majority of the Board; and (b) appoint such directors to fill the vacancies created thereby as are specified by the TSG Investor. Thereafter, for so long as the TSG Investor holds at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Common Stock held by them immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, in addition to any directors designated in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(i), the Company shall take all Necessary Action to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors at each applicable annual or special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected that number of individuals designated by the TSG Investor that, if elected, will result in the TSG Investor having the number of additional TSG Designees serving on the Board that is nominated in accordance with this Section 2.1(a)(ii).

(iii) Upon any decrease in the number of Directors that the TSG Investor is entitled to designate for election to the Board, the TSG Investor shall take all Necessary Action to cause the appropriate number of TSG Designees to offer to tender a resignation. If such resignation is then accepted by the Board, the Company and the TSG Investor shall take all Necessary Action to cause the authorized size of the Board of Directors to be reduced accordingly.

(b) Vacancies. The TSG Investor shall have the exclusive right to designate for election to the Board Directors to fill vacancies created by reason of death, removal or resignation of its designees to the Board, and the Company shall take all Necessary Action to cause any such vacancies to be filled by replacement Directors designated by the TSG Investor as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(c) Additional Directors. For so long as the TSG Investor holds at least forty percent (40%) of the shares of Common Stock held by them immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company will take all Necessary Action to ensure that the number of Directors serving on the Board shall not exceed eight (8) without the consent of the TSG Investor; provided, that the number of Directors may be increased by the Company if necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable law and stock exchange regulation.

(d) Committees. Subject to applicable laws and stock exchange regulations, the Company shall take all Necessary Action to have a TSG Designee then serving on the Board appointed to serve on each committee of the Board for so long as the TSG Investor has the right to at least one (1) TSG Designee. The TSG Investor shall have the right to appoint a representative as an observer to any committee of the Board to which the TSG Investor (i) does not elect to have a representative appointed or (ii) is prohibited by applicable laws or stock exchange regulations from having a representative appointed, in each case for so long as the TSG Investor has the right pursuant to this Article II to designate at least one (1) TSG Designee.

(e) Reimbursement of Expenses.

From and after the date hereof, concurrently with or prior to any TSG Designee joining the Board, the Company shall execute and deliver to each such TSG Designee a Director Indemnification Agreement.

SECTION 2.3. Sharing of Information. Any TSG Designee may share any information received in his or her capacity as a Board member with the TSG Investor. The TSG Investor agrees that it will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose, other than to monitor and make voting and investment decisions with respect to its investment in the Company and its subsidiaries, any confidential information obtained from the Company, unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 2.3 by the TSG Investor or its Affiliates), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the TSG Investor without use of the Company’s confidential information or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to the TSG Investor by a third party (other than an Affiliate of the TSG Investor) without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company that is known to

Each party hereto acknowledges that the TSG Investor or any of its Affiliates and related investment funds may review the business plans and related proprietary information of many enterprises, including enterprises which may have products or services which compete directly or indirectly with those of the Company and its subsidiaries, and may trade in the securities of such enterprises. Nothing in this Section 2.3(b) will preclude or in any way restrict the TSG Investor or its Affiliates or related investment funds from investing or participating in any particular enterprise, or trading in the securities thereof, whether or not such enterprise has products or services that compete with those of the Company and its subsidiaries.

SECTION 4.8. Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring.

SECTION 4.11. Enforcement.
