In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the Management Committee or as Officers or Employees of the Company or a Related Entity, members of the Management Committee and any Officers or Employees of the Company or a Related Entity to whom authority to act for the Management Committee, the Administrator or the Company is delegated shall be defended and indemnified by the Company to the extent permitted by law on an after-tax basis against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or any Award granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct; provided, however, that within thirty (30) days after the institution of such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at the Company’s expense to defend the same.

(ii)Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of this Section 7(a), in the case of an Option issued pursuant to Section 6(b), above, the exercise or purchase price for the Option shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the relevant instrument evidencing the agreement to issue such Option.
(b)Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for the Common Units to be issued upon exercise or purchase of an Option including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. In addition to any other types of consideration the Administrator may determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration for Common Units issued under the Plan the following:
(i)cash;
(ii)check;
(iii)surrender of Common Units held for the requisite period, if any, necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Common Units as the Administrator may require which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Common Units as to which said Option shall be exercised;
(iv)with respect to Options, if the exercise occurs on or after the Registration Date, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall provide written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased Shares and (B) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or
(v)any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.
The Administrator may at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard forms of Award Agreement described in Section 4(c)(iv), or by other means, grant Options which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment for the Shares or which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.
8.Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Member.
(a)Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator under the terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement.

10
(b)An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the Common Units with respect to which the Option is exercised has been made, including, to the extent selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay the purchase price as provided in Section 7(b)(iv).
(c)Notwithstanding anything in the Award Agreement to the contrary, if the exercise of an Option is prevented by the provisions of Section 12 below, the Option shall remain exercisable until one (1) month after the date the Grantee is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement and only in a manner and to the extent permitted under Code Section 409A.
9.Transferability of Awards. Awards shall be transferable by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or to the extent and in the manner authorized by the Administrator. In addition, the Grantee may designate a beneficiary of the Grantee’s Award in the event of the Grantee’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the Administrator.
10.Withholding Taxes. No Common Units shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee or other person until such Grantee or other person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any non-U.S., federal, state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Common Units. When, under applicable tax laws, a Grantee incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or settlement of any Award that is subject to tax withholding the Company shall withhold or collect from the Grantee the minimum tax withholding obligation, including, but not limited to, by having the Company withhold from the Common Units to be issued up to the minimum number of Common Units having a Fair Market Value on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined that is not more than the minimum amount to be withheld (reduced to the lowest whole number of Common Units if such number of Common Units withheld would result in withholding a fractional Common Unit with any remaining tax withholding settled in cash). In no event will the Company withhold any Common Units if such withholding would result in adverse accounting consequences to the Company.
11.Restricted Equity Units.
(a)Awards of Restricted Equity Units. A Restricted Equity Unit (“REU”) is an Award covering a number of Common Units to be settled by issuance of those Common Units at a date in the future. No purchase price shall apply to an REU. All grants of Restricted Equity Units will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Grantee) as the Administrator will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. No REU will have a term longer than ten (10) years from the date the REU is granted.
(b)Form and Timing of Settlement. To the extent permissible under applicable law, the Administrator may permit a Grantee to defer payment under a REU to a date or dates after the REU is earned, provided that the terms of the REU and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A (or any successor) and any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder. Payment will be made in the form of whole Common Units.
12.Conditions Upon Issuance of Common Units.
(a)Common Units shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the settlement of a REU unless those transactions and the issuance and delivery of such Common Units

11
pursuant thereto shall comply with all Applicable Laws, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Common Units under federal or state laws.
(b)As a condition to the exercise of an Option or receipt of Common Units upon the settlement of a REU, the Company may require such Grantee to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or settlement that the Common Units are being purchased or acquired only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Common Units if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws.
(c)As a condition to the exercise of an Option or prior to the settlement of a REU, the Company may require such Grantee to execute and deliver a signature page to, and agree to comply with, the provisions of the LLC Agreement and to make such representations and warranties contained in the LLC Agreement that are required of Members of the Company.
13.Changes in Common Units. Subject to any required action by the Members of the Company, the number of Common Units covered by each outstanding Award, and the number of Common Units which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each such outstanding Award (if applicable), as well as any other terms that the Management Committee determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued Common Units resulting from a Common Unit split, reverse Common Unit split, Common Unit distribution, combination or reclassification of the Common Units or similar event affecting the Common Units, (ii) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Common Units effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (iii) as the Management Committee may determine in its discretion, any other transaction with respect to Common Units including a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or Common Units, separation (including a spin-off or other distribution of Common Units or property), reorganization, liquidation (whether partial or complete) or any similar transaction; provided, however that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Management Committee and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as the Management Committee determines, no issuance by the Company of units of any class, or securities convertible into units of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Common Units subject to an Award.
14.Company Transactions.
(a)Termination of Award to Extent Not Assumed in Company Transaction. Effective upon the consummation of a Company Transaction, all outstanding Awards under the Plan shall terminate. However, all such Awards shall not terminate to the extent they are Assumed in connection with the Company Transaction.
(b)Acceleration of Award Upon Company Transaction. Except as provided otherwise in an individual Award Agreement, in the event of a Company Transaction:
(i)for the portion of each Award that is Assumed or Replaced, then such Award (if Assumed), the replacement Award (if Replaced), or subject to compliance with Code Section 409A, the cash incentive program (if Replaced) automatically shall become fully vested, exercisable and payable and be released from any repurchase or forfeiture rights (other than repurchase rights exercisable at Fair Market Value) as to fifty percent (50%) of the then unvested Common Units (or other consideration) represented by or subject to such Assumed or Replaced portion of the Award, immediately

The Company shall retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Grantee account shall not create or constitute a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Administrator, the Company or any Related Entity and a Grantee, or otherwise create any vested or beneficial interest in any Grantee or the Grantee’s creditors in any assets of the Company or a Related Entity.
