(e) Subject to Section 6.12(a)(iii), the Board may, during the one hundred twenty (120)-day period following the expiration of the Remaining New Securities Exercise Period, issue, offer or sell to any Person(s) (including any Holder) any New Securities that were not purchased by the Preferred Holders pursuant to Section 3.05(b) or the Common Holders pursuant to Section 3.05(d), upon terms no more favorable to such Person(s) than those set forth in the New Issue Notice. If the issuance and sale of such New Securities is not consummated within such one hundred twenty (120)-day period, then such New Securities may not be issued, offered or sold, as applicable, unless first reoffered in accordance with this Section 3.05; provided, that, such one hundred twenty (120)-day period shall be automatically extended as necessary in order to obtain any regulatory approvals required for such consummation of the transaction pursuant to which the Company is issuing, offering or selling the New Securities.

(f) Any Person that acquires the New Securities in accordance with Section 3.05(e) must agree in writing to be subject to all of the terms of this Agreement (including the representations set forth in Section 4.05) by executing and delivering a joinder agreement to the Company, in form and substance acceptable to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to each Holder. Such Person shall be admitted to the Company as a Holder effective on the execution of the joinder agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.05 to the contrary, (i) if the Board (including the Independent Director) determines that the Company has an urgent capital need that reasonably justifies shortening the New Issue Exercise Period and the Remaining New Securities Exercise Period, the Board may shorten each such periods to periods of time that are not less than ten (10) days, and (ii) the Board may, subject to Section 6.12(a)(iii), issue, offer or sell any New Securities to any Person without first complying with the provisions of this Section 3.05 so long as, within sixty (60) days after the sale of such New Securities, the Board conducts the process set forth in this Section 3.05 such that the Preferred Holders and, if applicable, the Common Holders, are given the opportunity to purchase the New Securities or Remaining New Securities, as applicable, that they would have otherwise had the right to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.05.

Article IV

HOLDER INTERESTS; CERTIFICATES; NEW HOLDERS

Section 4.01 The Company Units. Ownership rights in the Company are reflected as limited liability company interests of the Company. The limited liability company interests of the Company shall be divided into common units (each of which, a “Common Unit” and each holder of a Common Unit, a “Common Holder”) and preferred units (each of which, a “Preferred Unit”, and collectively with the Common Units, the “Units”, and each holder of a Preferred Unit, a “Preferred Holder” and together with each Common Holder, a “Holder”). As of the Effective Date, the Company has authorized 43,200 Common Units and 225,000 Preferred Units for issuance. Subject to the limitations and restrictions set forth in this Agreement, including Section 6.12(a)(iii) and Section 3.05, as applicable, the Company is authorized to issue any additional Units, of such classes and with such rights, preference and privileges, upon and as determined by Majority Vote by the Board.

(a) Holders as of the Effective Date. The name, address, capital contributions of and number of Units held by each Holder as of the Effective Date are set forth on Schedule A.

(b) Admission as a Holder. No Person shall be treated as a Holder of the Company for any purpose unless such Person holds Units. Unless admitted to the Company as a Holder as provided in this Agreement, no Person (including an assignee of rights with respect to Units or a transferee of Units) shall be, or shall be considered, a Holder. The Company may elect to deal only with Persons so admitted as Holders (including their duly authorized Representatives). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any distribution by the Company to the Person shown on the Company’s records as a Holder or to its legal Representatives shall relieve the Company of all liability to any other Person who may have an interest in such distribution by reason of any Transfer by the Holder or for any other reason.

(c) Transfer of Units. A Holder may not take any action to resign, withdraw or retire as a Holder voluntarily, and a Holder may not be removed involuntarily, prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company, other than as a result of a valid Transfer of all of such Holder’s Units in accordance with Article XI and each of the transferees of such Units (if the transferee is not the Company or already a Holder) being admitted as a substituted Holder pursuant to Article XI (a “Substituted Holder”). A Holder will cease to be a Holder only in the manner described in Article XI. Each Transfer of a Holder’s Units shall be deemed a Transfer of both Distributional Interests and Governance Rights (if applicable), and shall comply with the applicable provisions of Article XI of this Agreement.

Section 4.02 Unit Certificates. The Units are uncertificated.

Section 4.03 Record Holder of Units. The record holder of a Unit registered in the books and records of the Company shall be deemed by the Company to be the owner thereof for all purposes. The Board shall, with respect to any Transfer of Units, update the appropriate records of the Company with respect to such Transfer, including to reflect the name and address of the transferee of such Units, the number and type of Units Transferred and any information with respect to such transferee set forth on Schedule A with respect to the Holders.

Section 4.04 Pledge of Membership Interests. Each Holder shall pledge its Units as contemplated in the Holdco Claim Documents. The pledge of such Units shall not, except as otherwise may result due to an exercise of rights and remedies under the Holdco Claim Documents, cause a Holder to cease to be a Holder or to have the power to exercise any rights or powers of a Holder and, except as provided in the Holdco Claim Documents, the pledgee of such Units shall not have any liability solely as a result of such pledge.

Section 4.05 Representations and Warranties of Holders.

(a) By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Holder severally, but not jointly, hereby represents and warrants (as to itself) to the Company and to the other Holders, on and as of the Effective Date or any subsequent date on which a Holder is admitted to the Company, and as of the date of receipt of any additional Units, as follows:

(i) Authority. Such Holder (if it is a legal entity) is an entity duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its formation. Such Holder has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and the execution, delivery and performance by such Holder of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action.

(ii) Binding Obligations. This Agreement (or subscription agreement, joinder agreement or other similar agreement, if applicable) has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Holder and constitutes the binding obligation of such Holder enforceable against such Holder in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable Bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.

(iii) No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by such Holder of this Agreement (or subscription agreement, joinder agreement or other similar agreement, if applicable) does not and will not, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (A) violate any provision of Law to which such Holder is subject, (B) violate any order, judgment or decree applicable to such Holder, (C) to the extent applicable to such Holder, conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, any term or condition of its Organizational Documents or (D) to the extent applicable, conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, any term or condition of any agreement or other instrument to which such Holder is a party or by which such Holder’s Assets are bound, except, in the case of each of clauses (A), (B) and (D), as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on such Holder’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder. No consent or approval of any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Holder.

(iv) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Units to be acquired by such Holder will be acquired for investment for such Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to any reoffer, resale, distribution or other disposition not in compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable federal or state securities Laws.

(v) No Registration. Such Holder understands that the Units, at the time of issuance, will not be registered under the Securities Act on the grounds that the issuance of Units hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

(vi) Restricted Securities. Such Holder understands that the Units may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of either an effective registration statement covering such Units or an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Units must be held indefinitely (except as permitted under the terms and conditions of this Agreement). In particular, such Holder is aware that the Units may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act unless all of the conditions of that Rule are met. Among the conditions for use of Rule 144 may be the availability of current information to the public about the Company. Such information is not now available, and the Company has no present plans to make such information available.

(vii) Investment Experience. Such Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Units and of making an informed investment decision and understands that (A) this investment is suitable only for an investor which is able to bear the economic consequences of losing its entire investment, (B) the acquisition of Units hereunder is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk of loss of the entire investment, and (C) there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of, and there will be no public market for, the Units, and accordingly, it may not be possible for such Holder to liquidate its investment.

(viii) Accredited Investor. Such Holder is an “Accredited Investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 promulgated under Regulation D of the Securities Act and agrees that it will not take any action that could have an adverse effect on the availability of the exemption from registration provided by Rule 501 promulgated under Regulation D of the Securities Act with respect to the issuance of interests in the Company hereunder.

(ix) Non-Reliance. No promise, agreement, statement or representation that is not expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or in any other agreement to which such Holder and the Company is party has been made to such Holder by the Company, any other member of a Holder Group or such member’s Representatives or any other interested Person with respect to the terms set forth in this Agreement, and such Holder is not relying upon any such promise, agreement, statement or representation of any other Holder or any other member of a Holder Group or such member’s Representatives or any other interested Person. Such Holder is relying upon its own judgment and due diligence and has been represented by legal counsel in this matter.

(b) By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Holder severally, but not jointly, hereby represents and warrants (as to itself) to the Company and to the other Holders, on and as of the Effective Date, and covenants for so long as it remains a Holder, that: (i) it has not and will not undertake, and will ensure its Affiliates and agents do not undertake, any Anti-Corruption Prohibited Activity in relation to the Company or on behalf of the Company or any Holder, (ii) it is not a Restricted Party and shall not engage in any dealings or transactions that violate Sanctions, in each case, in relation to the Company or on behalf of the Company or any Holder, (iii) it will not violate any Anti-Money Laundering Law in relation to the Company or on behalf of the Company or any Holder, (iv) the funds used to purchase Units are not, were not and will not be directly or indirectly derived from activities that violate the Anti-Corruption Laws, Sanctions, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or other Laws or regulations of the United States, or from any dealings or transactions with any Restricted Party, or from activity undertaken in violation of Sanctions, (v) it will not use, transfer or assign any distributions, proceeds or other compensation provided by the Company in furtherance of an Anti-Corruption Prohibited Activity, to or for the benefit of any Restricted Party, or in violation of any Anti-Money Laundering Laws or any applicable Laws and (vi) it will promptly notify the Company if any of the foregoing ceases to be true.

Article V

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 5.01 Quarterly Preferred Unit Distributions.

(a) Subject to applicable Law and the remaining provisions of this Article V, each Preferred Holder will be entitled to receive quarterly distributions from the Company in an amount, with respect to each Preferred Unit held by such Preferred Holder, equal to the product of the Preferred Rate multiplied by the Preferred Stated Value of such Preferred Unit at the applicable time (such distributions, the “Quarterly Preferred Distributions”, and the amount of any such Quarterly Preferred Distribution, the “Preferred Distribution Amount” with respect to such Preferred Unit). Unless paid in cash as determined by the Board, each such Quarterly Preferred Distribution shall be paid by the Company in kind by increasing the Preferred Stated Value of each Preferred Unit on its books and records by the applicable Preferred Distribution Amount on the applicable Preferred Distribution Date (each a “PIK Distribution”). The distributions to the holders of Preferred Units will be payable quarterly in arrears on each of January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, or if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each such date, the “Preferred Distribution Date”); provided, that, (i) any amounts that accrue under this Section 5.01 during the time period between the applicable Preferred Distribution Date and such Business Day will not be applied to increase the applicable Preferred Distribution Amount, but will be payable at the following Preferred Distribution Date, and (ii) the Preferred Distribution Amount shall be pro-rated with respect to the first Fiscal Quarter occurring after the Effective Date.

(b) Distributions on the Preferred Units will be prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any distributions on any other Units and any other classes of Units created after the date hereof. Quarterly Preferred Distributions will be cumulative and will accrue daily whether or not declared and whether or not there will be funds legally available for the payment thereof.

(c) Quarterly Preferred Distributions made in cash will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by each applicable Preferred Holder, or if no bank account has been so designated, then by check (mailed on the applicable Preferred Distribution Date) to the address of record of such Preferred Holder, or by such other means as any Preferred Holder and the Company may agree upon from time to time. Each Quarterly Preferred Distribution made in cash will be deemed to have been timely paid in full (and the Company’s obligation to pay such Quarterly Preferred Distribution will be fully discharged) upon the funding of the applicable Preferred Distribution Amount to the applicable bank account or with respect to a check mailed to the address of record, regardless of whether the applicable Preferred Holder actually receives such funds. For the avoidance of doubt, no cash Quarterly Preferred Distribution will operate to increase the Preferred Stated Value of any Preferred Unit.

Section 5.02 Distributions of Available Cash. The Board shall determine the amount of Available Cash in accordance with the definition thereof and, subject to Section 5.01, Section 5.03 and Article XII, the amount so determined shall be distributed among the Holders at such times as determined by the Board in the following order of priority:

(a) First, to the Preferred Holders until each Preferred Holder has received distributions sufficient to satisfy the Preferred Return and cause it to equal zero with respect to each Preferred Unit held by such Preferred Holder as of the date of such distribution, pro rata as among the Preferred Holders based on relative amounts required to be distributed to each such Preferred Holder in order to achieve such Preferred Return with respect to each Preferred Unit held by such Preferred Holder; and

(b) Thereafter, 100% to the Common Holders, pro rata based on the relative number of Common Units held by each such Common Holder.

Section 5.03 Certain Limitations on Distributions. Distributions shall not be authorized or made hereunder if, and to the extent that (a) such distributions would violate Section 18-607 of the Act, the terms of the Holdco Claim Documents or the terms of any other material Contract a Company Party is a party to, (b) such distributions would render the Company unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (c) the reasonable value of the Company’s total Assets after the distribution would be less than the sum of its total liabilities, plus the amount, if any, that would be needed if the Company were to be dissolved, wound up and terminated at the time of the distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon distribution, winding up and termination of Holders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving distribution.

Section 5.04 Amounts Withheld from Distributions. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state, local or non-U.S. tax Law with respect to any actual or deemed payment, distribution or accrual to or in respect of the Holders (or, if applicable, other Persons treated as owning equity in the Company) shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Holders (or such other Persons) pursuant to this Article V for all purposes under this Agreement. The Company is authorized to withhold from actual or deemed payments, distributions or accruals to or in respect of the Holders (or, if applicable, other Persons treated as owning equity in the Company) and to pay over to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other applicable Law; provided, that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice to the relevant Holder or Holders no less than five (5) days prior to the date on which such deduction or withholding is to be made (or, if the Company becomes aware of any requirement to withhold after such date, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company becomes aware of such requirement) with a reasonable written explanation substantiating the requirement to deduct or withhold and the calculation of such deduction or withholding, and the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to mitigate any such required deduction or withholding.

Section 5.05 Automatic Redemption Upon Payment of Preferred Return. After all Holdco Term Obligations (as such term is defined in the CTTIA (as in effect as of August 11, 2025)) have been satisfied in full in accordance with Section 9.08 of the CTTIA (as in effect as of August 11, 2025), a Preferred Unit shall be deemed redeemed, surrendered and canceled upon the applicable Preferred Holder holding the same receiving payments pursuant to this Agreement (including from proceeds of a Company Sale Transaction or a Drag-Along Sale) in respect of such Preferred Unit in cash in an aggregate amount equal to the applicable Preferred Return with respect to such Preferred Unit. Upon the redemption of any Preferred Unit in full in cash for the applicable Preferred Return, such Preferred Unit shall cease to be outstanding, without the necessity of the taking of any action on the part of the Company, the Board, the applicable Preferred Holder or any other Person. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) this Section 5.05 shall not be construed to modify, supplement, supersede or waive Section 9.08 of the CTTIA (as in effect as of August 11, 2025), and (ii) no Preferred Holder shall have any right to cause the Company to redeem the Preferred Units held by such Preferred Holder.

Attendance of a Director or committee member, as applicable, at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where such Director or committee member attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not properly called or convened and notifies the other Directors or committee members, as applicable, at such meeting of such purpose.

(iii) Meeting Agenda. A Director or committee member, as applicable, may add additional matters to the agenda for a meeting by notice to the other Directors or committee members, as applicable, given not less than two (2) days prior to a meeting, which notice shall include any additional proposals being proposed by such Director or committee member, as applicable, to be considered at the meeting (including appropriate supporting information not previously distributed to the other Directors or committee members, as applicable). At the request of a Director or committee member, as applicable, and with the consent of the other Directors or committee members, the Board or committee of the Board, as applicable, may consider at a meeting a proposal not contained in such meeting agenda.

For the avoidance of doubt, except for a Board Observer holding a valid proxy from a Director, no Board Observer shall be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at any meeting of the Board, and no Board Observer shall be entitled to vote on any matters presented before the Board. In the event that a quorum is not present for two (2) successive duly called meetings of the Board solely due to the absence of a CTCI Director (either in person, by remote communication or by proxy), within one (1) hour following the time appointed for the second of such meetings, the remaining Directors may reconvene such meeting no earlier than forty-eight (48) hours after the originally scheduled meeting, and the attendance of a CTCI Director shall not, at such reconvened meeting, be required to constitute a quorum, and the agenda for such reconvened meeting shall be the same as that for both previously called prior meetings.

Section 11.07 Drag-Along Rights.

(a) General.

(i) Subject to Section 10.01, if at any time after the Effective Date the Board elects by Majority Vote to consummate a sale or transfer, in a bona fide arm’s length transaction or series of related transactions (whether by way of purchase agreement, tender offer, merger, consolidation, business combination, equity sale or issuance or other similar transaction) of (x) all or substantially all of the issued and outstanding Units or (y) all or substantially all of the Assets of the Company Parties (a “Drag-Along Sale”), then, in such case the Company may, subject to the other provisions of this Section 11.07, require each Holder (each, a “Drag-Along Holder”) to Transfer all of such Holder’s Units to a Person or Persons (other than any Person that is an Affiliate of any Drag-Along Holder) in the manner set forth in this Section 11.07; provided, that, with respect to any such Drag-Along Sale that will be consummated prior to the end of the Standstill Period, the Preferred Holders shall only be obligated to participate in such Drag-Along Sale if, as a result of such Drag-Along Sale, (x) all Holdco Term Obligations (as such term is defined in the CTTIA (as in effect as of August 11, 2025)) will be repaid in full in accordance with Section 9.08 of the CTTIA (as in effect as of August 11, 2025) and (y) such Preferred Holders will (A) receive consideration in an amount sufficient to cause the Preferred Holders to achieve their then-current Preferred Return and (B) be automatically redeemed upon receipt of such consideration pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.05; provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any such Drag-Along Sale that will be consummated after the end of the Standstill Period,(I) there shall be no minimum return requirement with respect to consideration received by any Holder and (II) subject to approval by the Board, any such Drag-Along Sale may be in exchange for no equity consideration or in exchange for consideration that may result in Holders of certain classes of Units receiving no consideration, in which case then-outstanding Units not entitled to consideration in connection with such Drag-Along Sale would be deemed to be automatically canceled upon consummation of such Drag-Along Sale for no consideration.

(ii) Subject to Section 11.07(b), each Holder will Transfer its Units on substantially the same terms and conditions, at the price calculated in accordance with Section 11.07(a)(iii), and each Holder will receive the same form of consideration.

(iii) The aggregate purchase price payable in connection with the Drag-Along Sale will be allocated among the Holders, subject to Section 11.07(b), in the same proportion that each such Holder would have received if such aggregate purchase price had been distributed by the Company in a complete liquidation pursuant to the rights and preferences set forth in Section 12.03 as in effect immediately prior to such Drag-Along Sale, and if a Holder receives consideration from such Drag-Along Sale in a manner other than as contemplated by such rights and preferences or in excess of the amount to which such Holder is entitled in accordance with such rights and preferences, then such Holder shall take such action as is necessary so that such consideration shall be immediately reallocated among and distributed to the Holders in accordance with such rights and preferences.

(b) Terms of Sale.

(i) In connection with a Drag-Along Sale, each Drag-Along Holder shall execute such documents (other than (A) any non-competition, non-solicitation or other similar covenants restricting the future business opportunities and activities or employee hiring or solicitation opportunities and activities of such Drag-Along Holder or (B) any release of claims other than a release in customary form of claims arising solely in such Drag-Along Holder’s capacity as a Holder of the Company) and make such customary representations and warranties with respect to title, power and authority, organization and good standing, enforceability, absence of liens or encumbrances and adverse claims, absence of conflicts, absence of consents and approvals and absence of brokers (“Fundamental Representations”), and such covenants and indemnities, in each case, solely as to itself, as are executed and made by each other Drag-Along Holder and its Affiliates (as applicable); provided, that, any indemnification or other obligations as among such Drag-Along Holders will be apportioned pro rata (based on the purchase price proceeds to be received by each Drag-Along Holder in such Drag-Along Sale) as among them (and each such Drag-Along Holder shall be severally, but not jointly, liable for its pro rata apportionment), other than any indemnification or other obligations with respect to such Drag-Along Holder’s Fundamental Representations, to the extent such Fundamental Representations relate individually to such Drag-Along Holder, its Units and its participation in the Drag-Along Sale and representations qualified by the individual knowledge of such Drag-Along Holder (the indemnification and other obligations in respect of which shall be borne solely by such Drag-Along Holder); provided, further, that, without the written consent of the applicable Drag-Along Holder, in no event shall such Drag-Along Holder’s liability for indemnity obligations with respect to representations and warranties exceed the net cash proceeds to be received by such Drag-Along Holder in such Drag-Along Sale, except in the case of fraud by such Drag-Along Holder; provided, further, that, such Drag-Along Holder and its Affiliates will not be required to amend, extend or terminate any contractual or other relationship with the Company, the acquirer or their respective Affiliates, except that such Drag-Along Holder may be required to agree to terminate the investment-related documents between or among such Drag-Along Holder, the Company and/or other Holders of the Company; provided, further, that, upon the consummation of the Drag-Along-Sale, each Drag-Along Holder will receive the same form of consideration for the applicable Units as the other Holders of the Units sold by such Drag-Along Holder.

(ii) Each Drag-Along Holder agrees that any indemnification or other obligations or liabilities of the Company with respect to a Drag-Along Sale shall be shared and apportioned pro rata among such Drag-Along Holders to the extent the amount of such indemnification or other obligations or liabilities of the Company exceed the amount of reserves established therefor, and each Drag-Along Holder agrees to enter into a contribution and indemnity or similar agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that, in no event shall the liability apportioned to any Drag-Along Holder exceed the value of the consideration received by such Drag-Along Holder in connection with the Drag-Along Sale.

(iii) In connection with any Drag-Along Sale, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Section 11.07, each Holder agrees to (A) consent to and raise no objections against the Drag-Along Sale or the process pursuant to which the Drag-Along Sale was arranged, (B) waive and confirm such Holder has no dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or other similar rights (it being acknowledged that the Holders have agreed pursuant to Section 11.09 that they shall not have any such rights absent an express provision in the applicable agreement of merger, consolidation or other document effectuating such Transfer or other transaction granting them), (C) perform all actions reasonably required or requested by the Board to consummate such Drag-Along Sale and (D) comply with the terms of the documentation relating to the Drag-Along Sale.

(c) Drag-Along Notice.

(i) The rights set forth in this Section 11.07 will be exercised by the Company, upon receipt of approval of the Board, by giving written notice (the “Drag-Along Notice”) to each Holder, at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which the Company expects to consummate the Drag-Along Sale. In the event that the material terms or conditions set forth in the Drag-Along Notice are thereafter amended, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) days) give written notice (an “Amended Drag-Along Notice”) of the amended material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer to each Holder.

(ii) Each Drag-Along Notice and Amended Drag-Along Notice will include a true and complete unredacted copy of the purchase agreement for such transaction, and any and all side letters and other transaction documents related thereto, and shall set forth at least: (A) the name and address of the proposed transferee/purchaser (the “Drag-Along Transferee”) in the Drag-Along Sale, (B) the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by the Drag-Along Transferee and the calculation of the amount payable to each Drag-Along Holder and (C) all other material terms of the proposed transaction, including the expected closing date of the transaction if known by the Company.

Section 11.08 Tag-Along Rights.

(a) General. Subject to Section 11.08(f), and other than an Excluded Preferred Transfer or a Transfer in connection with a Drag-Along Sale, in the event of any intended or desired Transfer of any or all of the Preferred Units held by a Preferred Holder (such Transfer, a “Tag-Along Transfer”, the Preferred Holder proposing to Transfer its Preferred Units, the “Tag-Along Transferring Holder” and such Preferred Units being Transferred, the “Tag Sale Offered Units”) (to the extent permitted under the other provisions of this Agreement), such Tag-Along Transferring Holder shall promptly give written notice (the “Tag Sale Notice”) to the Company and each other Preferred Holder (each a “Tag Rights Holder”), which Tag Sale Notice shall set forth (i) the Tag Sale Offered Units to be Transferred and (ii) the terms and conditions of such proposed Tag-Along Transfer (and shall include copies of any written proposal or agreements related to the proposed Tag-Along Transfer), including the identity of the proposed transferee, the per-Unit purchase price proposed to be paid for the Tag Sale Offered Units, the timing of such Tag-Along Transfer, the payment terms and type of Transfer to be effectuated, and any other material terms and conditions thereof.

(b) Tag-Along Exercise Notice. Each Tag Rights Holder shall have the right, exercisable by written notice (a “Tag-Along Exercise Notice”) given to the Tag-Along Transferring Holder and the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Tag Sale Notice by such Tag Rights Holder (the “Tag-Along Exercise Period”), to elect (which such election shall be irrevocable) to participate in such Tag-Along Transfer and Transfer all or a portion of such Tag Rights Holder’s Preferred Units, up to a number of Preferred Units equal to, as of the date of determination, the total number of Preferred Units held by such Tag Rights Holder multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Tag Sale Offered Units and the denominator of which is the total number of Preferred Units held by the Tag-Along Transferring Holder (such portion elected to be Transferred, the “Tag-Along Units”) to the proposed transferee identified in the Tag Sale Notice, on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Tag Sale Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the consideration received in any Tag-Along Transfer in which any Preferred Holder participates is not required to result in achievement of the Preferred Return. If a Tag Rights Holder does not submit a Tag-Along Exercise Notice within the Tag-Along Exercise Period, such Tag Rights Holder shall be deemed to have waived the right to Transfer any portion of such Tag Rights Holder’s Preferred Units to such proposed transferee in connection with such Tag-Along Transfer.

(c) Tag-Along Exercising Holder. If any Tag Rights Holder submits a Tag-Along Exercise Notice within the Tag-Along Exercise Period (a “Tag-Along Exercising Holder”), then (i) such Tag-Along Exercising Holder may include such Tag-Along Exercising Holder’s Tag-Along Units in such Transfer, (ii) any such Tag-Along Units shall be Transferred to the transferee identified in the Tag Sale Notice, on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Tag Sale Notice and (iii) the Tag-Along Transferring Holder may not Transfer any portion of its Tag Sale Offered Units unless any Tag-Along Exercising Holder’s Tag-Along Units are also Transferred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the aggregate number of Tag-Along Units and Tag Sale Offered Units pursuant to any Transfer exceeds the total number of Preferred Units that a proposed transferee is willing to purchase, the number of Preferred Units to be transferred by each Tag-Along Exercising Holder and the Tag-Along Transferring Holder shall be reduced such that a pro rata portion of each of the Tag-Along Exercising Holders’ and the Tag-Along Transferring Holder’s Tag-Along Units or Tag Sale Offered Units, as applicable, are sold to such transferee.

(d) Documentation of Tag Sale. Subject to Section 11.08(f), each Tag-Along Exercising Holder shall execute such documents and make such customary representations and warranties, and such covenants and indemnities, in each case, solely as to itself, as are executed and made by the Tag-Along Transferring Holder.

(e) No Tag-Along Exercising Holder. If there is no Tag-Along Exercising Holder, then the Tag-Along Transferring Holder may Transfer its Tag Sale Offered Units to the transferee identified in the Tag Sale Notice on the terms and conditions set forth in the Tag Sale Notice, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement; provided, that, if such Transfer has not been consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Tag Sale Notice, then the Tag-Along Transferring Holder will be required to again comply with the procedures set forth in this ‎Section 11.08.

(f) Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) a Tag-Along Exercising Holder shall not be required to (A) make any representations and warranties to the transferee identified in the Tag Sale Notice other than Fundamental Representations and investment qualifications or (B) enter into any non-solicitation, non-competition or similar covenants restricting the future business opportunities and activities or employee hiring or solicitation opportunities and activities of such Tag-Along Exercising Holder or its Affiliates; and (ii) to the extent the parties are to provide any indemnification or assume any post-closing liabilities, each Tag-Along Exercising Holder and the Tag-Along Transferring Holder shall do so severally, but not jointly (and on a pro rata basis in accordance with the relative value of consideration received by the Tag-Along Transferring Holder and each Tag-Along Exercising Holder), and the aggregate amount of liability for a Tag-Along Exercising Holder shall not exceed the U.S. dollar value of the total consideration to be paid by the transferee to such Tag-Along Exercising Holder, except in the case of fraud by such Tag-Along Exercising Holder.

(g) Expenses. The Tag-Along Transferring Holder and Tag-Along Exercising Holders shall each be responsible for their own costs and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with a Tag-Along Transfer.

Section 11.09 No Appraisal Rights. Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement, no Holder shall be entitled to any appraisal rights (or dissenter’s rights or other similar rights whatsoever) with respect to such Holder’s Units or any other interest in the Company, whether individually or as part of any class or group of Holders, in the event of a merger, consolidation or Company Sale Transaction or other Transfer or transaction involving the Company or its securities unless such rights are expressly provided by the agreement of merger, agreement of consolidation or other document effectuating such Transfer or other transaction.

(a) The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following (each a “Liquidation Event”): (i) the determination of the Board to dissolve the Company, (ii) the termination of the legal existence of the last remaining Holder of the Company or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of the last remaining Holder of the Company in the Company unless the Company is continued without dissolution in a manner permitted by the Act or (iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 12.01, to the maximum extent permitted by the Act, the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, Bankruptcy or dissolution of a Holder shall not constitute a Liquidation Event and, notwithstanding the occurrence of any such event or circumstance, the business of the Company shall be continued without dissolution.

Section 12.02 Liquidation of Assets. Upon occurrence of a Liquidation Event, the Board shall arrange for liquidation of the Company’s Assets and cause such liquidation to be carried out as promptly as is consistent with realization of Fair Market Value.

(b) incur such fees, costs and expenses for the account of the Company as may be reasonable and necessary or advisable to accomplish such liquidation; and

(c) defer and withhold from the liquidation the Company’s Assets if, in its best judgment, such action is in the best interests of the Company creditors and the Holders.

(b) Any amounts deemed reasonably necessary by the Board to provide a reserve for any unforeseen liabilities and obligations may, in the Board’s or liquidator’s discretion, be deposited in a bank or trust company upon such terms and for such period of time as the Board or liquidator may reasonably determine. The Assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Holders from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Board, in the same proportion as the amount distributed to such trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Holders pursuant to Section 5.02.

Except as required by any non-waivable provision of the Act or expressly provided herein or in any separate written instrument signed by the applicable Covered Person, the debts, Losses, Contracts and other obligations of the Company (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) shall be solely the debts, Losses, Contracts and other obligations of the Company, and no Covered Person in its capacity as such shall be liable personally for any debts, Losses, Contracts or any other obligations of the Company or any Holder.

Section 13.02 Exculpation.

(a) No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person on behalf of the Company that did not constitute a breach of this Agreement, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to exculpation for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person’s (i) common law fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct and (ii)  breach of his or her express fiduciary duties, as applicable, to the Company, in each case, as established by a non-appealable court order, judgment, decree or decision or pursuant to a final and binding decision of an arbitration panel.

(b) A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the Assets, liabilities, Available Cash or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of Assets from which distributions to a Holder might properly be paid.

(c) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Covered Person shall have any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary or other similar duties to the Company or the Holders, and the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict, eliminate or otherwise modify the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at Law or in equity, are agreed by the Holders and the Company to replace such other duties and liabilities of a Covered Person to the fullest extent permitted by Law; provided, however, that the general duty of good faith and fair dealings is owed by all Holders to the Company.

Section 13.03 Indemnification of Covered Persons. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against all Losses arising from or related to any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person on behalf of the Company that did not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duly stated or implied by Law (to the extent not restricted, eliminated or otherwise modified herein) and that was reasonably believed by such Covered Person to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement or a delegation of authority in accordance with this Agreement, except that: (a) no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any Loss by reason of such Covered Person’s common law fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct, knowing and material violation of applicable securities Laws or knowing and material breach of this Agreement and (b) no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any Loss by reason of such Covered Person’s breach of his or her express fiduciary duties, as applicable, to the Company, in each case, as established by a non-appealable court order, judgment, decree or decision or pursuant to a final and binding decision of an arbitration panel. Any indemnity under this Section 13.03 shall be provided out of and to the extent of the Company’s Assets only (including the proceeds of any insurance policy obtained pursuant to Section 13.08), and no Covered Person shall have any personal liability on account thereof. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 13.03 or any provision in this Section 13.03 shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the rights of any Covered Person under this Section 13.03 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when Losses relating to such matters may arise or be asserted.

Section 13.04 Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by the Company prior to the final disposition of such Proceeding upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in Section 13.03; provided, however, that any obligation of the Company to make such advances under this Section 13.04 shall be provided out of and to the extent of the Company’s Assets only (including the proceeds of any insurance policy obtained pursuant to Section 13.08) except to the extent such advances are included within the Annual Budget.

Section 13.05 Primary Obligation. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Covered Persons may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by a member of a Holder Group (collectively, the “Holder Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees that (a) it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Covered Persons under Section 13.03 and Section 13.04 are primary and any obligation of the Holder Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or Losses incurred by the Covered Persons are secondary), (b) it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Covered Persons and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of Section 13.03 and Section 13.04 (or any other agreement between the Company and the Covered Person), without regard to any rights the Covered Person may have against the Holder Indemnitors, and (c) it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Holder Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Holder Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Holder Indemnitors on behalf of a Covered Person with respect to any claim for which the Covered Person has sought indemnification from the Company pursuant to Section 13.03 and Section 13.04 shall affect the foregoing, and the Holder Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Covered Person against the Company. The Company agrees that the Holder Indemnitors who are not Holders are express Third Party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 13.05.

Section 13.06 Procedure for Indemnification. Any indemnification or advancement of expenses under Section 13.03 or Section 13.04 shall be made only against a written request therefor (together with supporting documentation) submitted by or on behalf of the Person seeking indemnification or advance; provided, that, the omission to timely request indemnification or advance of expenses shall not relieve the Company from any obligations it may have to a Covered Person. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Person in connection with successfully establishing such Person’s right to indemnification or advancement of expenses under Section 13.03 or Section 13.04, in whole or in part, shall also be indemnified by the Company.

Section 13.07 Contract Right; Non-Exclusivity; Survival. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by Section 13.03 or Section 13.04 (a) shall be deemed to be separate contract rights between the Company and each Covered Person that serves in any such capacity at any time while these provisions are in effect, and no repeal or modification of any of these provisions shall adversely affect any right or obligation of such Covered Person existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any state of facts then or previously existing or any Proceeding previously or thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts, (b) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other indemnification or advancement of expenses to which a Covered Person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled and (c) shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such Covered Person.

Section 13.08 Insurance. The Company shall purchase and maintain insurance, to the extent and in such amounts as the Board deems reasonable, on behalf of Covered Persons and such other Persons as the Board will determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by any such Person in connection with the activities of the Company Parties or such indemnities, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 15.02 or specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the parties hereto in negotiating this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring the same (including the fees of any attorneys, accountants, investment bankers, brokers or others engaged by the parties).

Section 15.03 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Holder, on behalf of itself, other members of its Holder Group, its investors and its advisors, acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Agreement, all understandings, agreements and other arrangements between and among the Holders, with respect to the Company Parties, and all other non-public information received from or otherwise relating to the Company Parties or the business or Assets of the Company Parties, including (i) the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Organizational Documents of the Company Parties, (ii) any and all information about any business opportunity, project or prospect identified by a Company Party and (iii) confidential or proprietary information received by any Company Party from a Third Party with respect to which any Company Party is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of a Third Party to the extent known by the receiving party (such information, collectively, subject to the exclusions identified in Section 15.03(b) and Section 15.03(c), the “Confidential Information”) will be confidential, and will not be disclosed or otherwise released to any other Person without the written consent of the Board, unless such disclosure or release is otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement to which a Company Party is a party, which agreement is approved by written consent of the Board. Each Holder agrees that it will not use any of such Confidential Information for any purpose other than for a valid purpose relating to the business of the Company Parties or otherwise in connection with its investment in the Company, including a potential transfer (directly or indirectly) of its Units. The obligations of a Holder pursuant to this paragraph will continue following the time such Person ceases to be a Holder, but thereafter such Person will not have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Confidential Information” shall not include, with respect to any Holder, any information that (i) is already lawfully in the possession or control of such Holder or its Representatives, so long as such information is not, to the knowledge of such Holder, subject to a legal, fiduciary or contractual obligation of confidentiality or secrecy to any Company Party or any other Holder, (ii) becomes publicly available other than through a breach of this Agreement by such Holder or any of its Affiliates, (iii) becomes available to such Holder or its Representatives from a source other than any Company Party or another Holder (or its Representatives) so long as, to the knowledge of such Holder, such source is not bound by a legal, fiduciary or contractual obligation of confidentiality or secrecy to any Company Party or any other Holder or (iv) is independently developed by such Holder or its Representatives without relying on any Confidential Information or otherwise breaching this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or restrict any Holder or any member of its Holder Group from (i) disclosing Confidential Information to a member of such Holder’s Holder Group, each of which will be bound by the provisions of Section 15.03(a), (ii) disclosing information and documents to such Holder’s Holder Group, as applicable, and such Holder’s and such Holder’s Holder Group’s respective attorney, accountant or tax advisor exclusively for the purpose of securing legal, accounting or tax advice, and solely to the extent required for such purpose, (iii) making any disclosures to its respective direct or indirect investors or lenders or prospective investors or lenders or, in either case, such investors’ or lenders’ or prospective investors’ or lenders’ respective advisors with respect to the operating results, prospects, transaction or project pipeline and other similar information of or regarding the Company Parties, so long as such Persons are subject to confidentiality restrictions, (iv) disclosing information to any contractor, consultant or other service provider engaged by a Company Party in connection with the development or operation of any project, so long as each such Person is subject to confidentiality restrictions, (v) disclosing information and documents to any bona fide potential transferee of such Holder’s Units in the Company and the advisors thereof, so long as each such Person is subject to confidentiality restrictions or (vi) disclosing information and documents in connection with enforcing any rights a Holder has under this Agreement or any other Organizational Documents of the Company Parties; provided, that, the disclosing Holder will be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality or use restrictions set forth herein by the Persons receiving such disclosure pursuant to the foregoing items (i) through (v). In addition, the confidentiality obligations of the Holders hereunder will not apply to the extent that the disclosure of information otherwise determined to be confidential is required by applicable Law (or applicable rule or regulation) or in performance of a Holder’s customary public reporting disclosures; provided, that, except with respect to any disclosure in connection with a Holder’s customary public reporting disclosures or other general regulatory examinations or reviews, prior to disclosing such Confidential Information and to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, a Holder must notify the Company thereof (if practicable, with sufficient notice to allow the Company to seek confidential treatment of such information), which notice will include the basis upon which such Holder believes the information is required by applicable Law to be disclosed.

Section 15.04 Public Announcements. No Holder shall issue, or permit any of its Affiliates or Representatives to issue, any press release or otherwise make any public statements or announcements regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the other Holders, except as necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable Law or any rules or regulations of any stock exchange, supervisory, regulatory or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or any of its Affiliates (including the Commission and the New York Stock Exchange), in which case the Holder required to issue such press release or public announcement will, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, use reasonable efforts to provide the Company a reasonable opportunity to comment on such press release or public announcement in advance of such publication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement will limit any member of a Holder Group’s rights to disclose the existence of this Agreement and the general nature of the transactions described herein on any earnings call or in similar discussions with financial media or analysts, stockholders and other members of the investment community.

Section 15.05 Binding Effect. Without limiting the restrictions on Transfers set forth herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and each Holder and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and by their signature hereto, the Company and each Holder intends to and does hereby become bound.

Section 15.06 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Article XIII, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall entitle any Person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns to any claim, cause of action, remedy or right of any kind. Any agreement to pay any amount (including any agreement between the Holders to make Capital Contributions or to advance money or property to the Company) and any assumption of liability contained herein, express or implied, shall be only for the benefit of the Holders, and such agreement or assumption shall not inure to the benefit of the obligees of any indebtedness or any other Person whomsoever.

Section 15.07 Notices.

(a) Any and all notices, elections, consents, claims or demands permitted or required to be made under this Agreement shall be made in writing signed by each party hereto giving such notice, election, consent, claim or demand hereunder and shall be (i) delivered by hand, (ii) sent by email, (iii) sent postage prepaid by registered, certified or express mail, or (iv) delivered by overnight courier service, in each case, to the other applicable parties hereto at the address or addresses set forth on Schedule A or such other address as may be supplied by written notice given in conformity with this Section 15.07; provided, that, whenever any notice is required to be given by applicable Law or by this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

(b) A party hereto may change its address or email address by delivering notice to the other parties hereto in conformity with this Section 15.07.

(c) All such notices, elections, consents, claims, demands and other communications shall be deemed received (i) on the date of receipt by the recipient thereof if received prior to 5:00 p.m. on a Business Day in the place of receipt, and (ii) otherwise, on the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt; provided, that, if a notice, election, consent, claim, demand or other communication is sent via email, it shall be deemed received when sent (provided, no “bounce-back”, system error message or other notification of non-delivery is received by the sender).

Section 15.08 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF.

Section 15.09 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Claims shall be heard by a panel of three arbitrators. The place of arbitration shall be Houston, Texas. The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware. Time is of the essence for any arbitration under this Agreement and arbitration hearings shall take place within 90 days of filing and awards rendered within 120 days. Arbitrators shall agree to these limits prior to accepting appointment. The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by a reasoned opinion. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of each party to the arbitration.

(b) A breach or threatened breach by a party of any of such party’s obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, each of the other parties hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to them in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, and specific performance (without any requirement to post bond).

Section 15.10 Severability.

(a) If any term or other provision of this Agreement is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any material manner adverse to any party hereto. Upon such determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(b) This Agreement shall constitute the “limited liability company agreement” (as that term is defined in Section 18-101 of the Act) of the Company. The rights, powers, duties, obligations and liabilities of the Holders shall be determined pursuant to the Act and this Agreement. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any mandatory, non-waivable provision of the Act, such provision of the Act shall control. If any provision of the Act provides that it may be varied or superseded in the agreement of a limited liability company (or otherwise by agreement of the members or managers of a limited liability company), such provision shall be deemed superseded and waived in its entirety if this Agreement contains a provision addressing the same issue or subject matter.

Section 15.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes hereto) and the other documents referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, between the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates, contain the entire understanding of the parties hereto and their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter thereof and hereof, and supersede all prior agreements with respect to the subject matter thereof and hereof. There are no warranties, representations or other agreements among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement except as specifically set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and no party hereto shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, inducement or statement of intention not so set forth.

Section 15.12 Representation by Counsel. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with consent and upon the advice of said independent counsel. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise, or rule of strict constriction applied, favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it is of no application and is hereby waived by the parties hereto.

Section 15.13 Waivers; Rights Cumulative. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. Neither the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure by any party hereto, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature or of any succeeding breach of the same or any obligation, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder, and a failure by any party hereto, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the right to require such performance at any time thereafter. No course of dealing, delay, failure or omission on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or under any other documents furnished in connection with or under this Agreement or otherwise available to such Person under applicable Law shall impair any such right, power, remedy or privilege, or affect the right of such Person thereafter to exercise the same, or be construed as a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power, remedy or privilege shall preclude the further exercise of such right, power, remedy or privilege, or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. Any extension of time or other indulgence granted to any party under this Agreement shall not otherwise alter or affect any power, remedy or right of any other party hereto, or the obligations of the party to whom such extension or indulgence is granted. The rights of the parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude the exercise of any other right.

Section 15.14 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Effective Date, and without the payment of any additional consideration (other than reimbursement of expenses as set forth in Section 15.02), each Holder shall, and shall cause the other members of its Holder Group to, in each case, at the Company’s, the Board’s or another Holder’s request, (a) execute or deliver such other notifications, documents, certificates, agreements, instruments and other writings and (b) take such other actions or otherwise cooperate, in each case, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable in order to consummate or document the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.‎

Section 15.15 Scope. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be ‎excessively broad as to time, duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, each such ‎provision shall be construed, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the extent ‎compatible with applicable Law then in force.

Section 15.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by portable document format (.pdf) or electronically using DocuSign, AdobeSign or other digital signature provider shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
