(a) Subject to any restrictions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement and Section 2.02(h), a Holder shall be entitled at any time and from time to time upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, to surrender Paired Interests to the Company, in exchange (such exchange, an “Exchange”) for the delivery by the Company to such Holder of either (i) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock that is equal to the product of the number of Paired Interests surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate or (ii) at the option of Newco, or the Company on behalf of Newco, to be exercised pursuant to Section 2.02(b), a Cash Exchange Payment.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Holder be entitled to effect an Exchange if and to the extent that, after the effectiveness of the Exchange and after giving effect to any disposition of Class A Common Stock that occurs immediately after such Exchange, GE and its Subsidiaries collectively would beneficially own more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock at such time.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Holder be entitled to effect an Exchange (1) if as of the date of the applicable Notice of Exchange, the aggregate cash balances of the Newco Group (the “Cash Balances”) exceed $10,000,000 (the “Maximum Cash Amount”); provided that, in the event that such Cash Balances exceed the Maximum Cash Amount (i) Newco shall have 30 days after delivery of such Notice of Exchange to (v) contribute such excess cash to Newco LLC in exchange for additional Common Units, pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section 3.04(b) of the LLC Agreement, (w) make one or more distributions on Class A Common Stock, (x) repurchase shares of Class A Common Stock, (y) receive a determination from the Conflicts Committee that such Cash Balances in excess of the Maximum Cash Amount are reasonably necessary for Newco Group operations, in which case they shall be disregarded for purposes of this Section 2.01(c), or (z) any combination thereof such that the Cash Balances are equal to or less than the Maximum Cash Amount, and (ii) upon the expiration of such 30-day period, such Holder or Holders shall be entitled to effect the Exchange set forth in such Notice of Exchange (for the avoidance of doubt, subject to any revocation pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(ii));

7

provided, however, that, if as of the expiration of such 30-day period, the Cash Balances continue to exceed the Maximum Cash Amount, Newco shall declare a distribution in an amount no less than such excess on the Exchange Date to holders of record of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Exchange (as determined pursuant to Section 2.02(d)), (2) if as of the date of the applicable Notice of Exchange, there is an Unpaid BHI Sharing Amount, or Sharing Amount or Sharing Payment, as applicable, due to a Newco Group Member; provided that such Exchange shall be permitted to occur on or after the end of the five (5) Business Day period specified in Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement and the Newco Group Member shall be deemed to contribute such Unpaid BHI Sharing Amount, or Sharing Amount or Sharing Payment, as applicable, due to a Newco Group Member to Newco LLC as payment for Common Units in accordance with Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement immediately prior to the effective time of the Exchange, or (3) during the period from and including the first day of a taxable year to and including the Determination Date with respect to the prior taxable year if such Exchange, together with any other Exchanges by the Holder (or any Affiliate of the Holder) during this period would result in the Exchange of 3% or more of the total outstanding Common Units of Newco LLC during this period; provided that such an Exchange shall be permitted to occur on or after the end of the five (5) Business Day period specified in Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement and (A) promptly following the delivery of the Notice of Exchange, GE and Newco shall act reasonably and in good faith to mutually determine the amount of any Sharing Amount that may be due with respect to the prior Taxable Year, as accurately as possible and taking into account any estimated amounts previously provided pursuant to Section 5.03(a) and Section 5.03(b) of the Tax Matters Agreement; provided, however, that (I) if GE and Newco cannot agree on the Sharing Amount within ten (10) days, any disputes shall be resolved in a manner consistent with the principles of Section 8.05(b) of the Tax Matters Agreement within thirty (30) days, and (II) upon resolution, such determined Sharing Amount shall be final for purposes of this Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement, and (B) if the determination pursuant to clause (A) results in a Sharing Amount due to a Newco Group Member, then such Sharing Amount shall be deemed contributed by such Newco Group Member in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.01(c)(2).

Section 2.02. Exchange Procedures; Notices and Revocations.

(a) A Holder may exercise the right to effect an Exchange as set forth in Section 2.01 by delivering a written notice of exchange in respect of the Paired Interest to be Exchanged substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Notice of Exchange”), duly executed by such Exchanging Holder or such Exchanging Holder’s duly authorized attorney, to the Company at the address set forth in Section 4.03 during normal business hours, or if any agent for the Exchange is duly appointed and acting (the “Exchange Agent”), to the office of the Exchange Agent during normal business hours. If Common Units and/or the Class B Common Stock are then represented by certificates, certificate(s) representing at least the number of Common Units and/or Class B Common Stock being exchanged, with instrument(s) of transfer reasonably acceptable to the Company and executed in blank, shall be delivered by such Exchanging Holder to the Company at the address set forth in Section 4.03 during normal business hours or to the offices of the Exchange Agent during normal business hours. If such certificates have been lost, such Exchanging Holder may deliver, in lieu of such certificate(s), an affidavit of lost certificates. Newco shall take such actions as may be required, including, if applicable, the issuance and sale of shares of Class A Common Stock to the Company for the delivery by the Company to such Exchanging Holder of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock that is equal to the product of the number of Paired Interests surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate, to ensure the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Article II.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Exchange, Newco or the Company on behalf of Newco may deliver a notice (“Election Notice”) within three (3) Business Days after receipt by Newco and the Company of such Notice of Exchange, in which Newco, or the Company on behalf of Newco, may elect for a Cash Exchange Payment to be provided in an elective Exchange pursuant to Section 2.01. Subject to Section 2.01(b) and 2.01(c), if no Election Notice is given within such three (3) Business Day period, Newco, or the Company on behalf of Newco, shall be deemed not to have made an election for a Cash Exchange Payment to be provided in the applicable Exchange and shall be required to deliver Class A Common Stock.

(c) Contingent Notice of Exchange and Revocation by a Holder.

(i) A Notice of Exchange may specify that the Exchange is to be (x) contingent (including as to the timing) upon the consummation of a purchase by another Person (whether in a tender or exchange offer, an underwritten offering or otherwise) of shares of any Deliverable Common Stock into which the Paired Interests are exchangeable, or contingent (including as to timing) upon the closing of an announced merger, consolidation or other transaction or event in which any Deliverable Common Stock would be exchanged or converted or become exchangeable for or convertible into cash or other securities or property and/or (y) effective upon a specified future date.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Notice of Exchange may be withdrawn or amended, in whole or in part, prior to the effectiveness of the Exchange (including following the delivery of an Election Notice), at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date (or if later, at any time within 24 hours of the delivery of an Election Notice (the “Election Response Period”)) by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to Newco and the Company or the Exchange Agent, specifying (1) the number of withdrawn Paired Interests, (2) if any, the number of Paired Interests as to which the Notice of Exchange remains in effect and (3) if such Holder so determines, a new Exchange Date or any other new or revised information permitted in the Notice of Exchange (which new Exchange Date shall not be earlier than the date that is three (3) Business Days after the date such notice of withdrawal is received by Newco and the Company).

(d) Each Exchange shall be deemed to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Exchange Date, and the Exchanging Holder (or other Person(s) whose name or names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued) shall be deemed to be a holder of any Deliverable Common Stock from and after the effectiveness of the Exchange. As promptly as practicable on or after the Exchange Date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Exchanging Holder (or other Person(s) whose name or names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued) the Cash Exchange Payment, or if applicable, the number of shares of any Deliverable Common Stock deliverable upon such Exchange, registered in the name of Exchanging Holder (or other Person(s) whose name or names in which any Deliverable Common Stock is to be issued).

9

(e) The shares of any Deliverable Common Stock issued upon an Exchange, other than any such shares issued in an Exchange registered under the Securities Act, shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW), OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

(f) If (i) any shares of Deliverable Common Stock may be sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective by the SEC, (ii) all of the applicable conditions of Rule 144 are met, or (iii) the legend (or a portion thereof) otherwise ceases to be applicable, Newco, upon the written request of a Holder shall promptly provide such Holder or its respective transferees, without any expense to such Persons (other than applicable transfer taxes and similar governmental charges, if any) with new certificates (or evidence of book-entry shares) for securities of like tenor not bearing the provisions of the legend with respect to which the restriction has terminated. In connection therewith, such Holder shall provide Newco with such information in its possession as Newco may reasonably request in connection with the removal of any such legend.

(g) Subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, Newco, the Company and the applicable Holder shall bear their own respective expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange by such Holder, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated; provided, however, that Newco will pay any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; provided, further, that if any shares of Deliverable Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the Exchanging Holder, then the Exchanging Holder and/or the Person in whose name such shares are to be delivered shall pay to Newco or the Company, as applicable the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Newco and the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article II, a Holder shall not be entitled to effect an Exchange (and, if attempted, any such Exchange shall be void ab initio), the Company shall have the right to refuse to honor any request to effect an Exchange, at any time or during any period, if the Company shall reasonably determine that such Exchange would be prohibited by any applicable Law, provided this subsection Section 2.02(h) shall not limit the Company’s obligations under Section 2.06(c).

10

Section 2.03. Adjustment.

(a) The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is any subdivision (by any stock or unit split, stock or unit dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock or unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the shares of Class B Common Stock or Common Units that is not accompanied by a substantively identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Common Stock. If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an Exchanging Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Exchanging Holder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction and prior to the effectiveness of the Exchange.

(b) In the event that Newco redeems or repurchases any shares of Class A Common Stock and there is no corresponding repurchase or redemption of Common Units pursuant to Section 3.11 of the LLC Agreement, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted immediately following such repurchase (and prior to any Exchange related thereto) to equal the quotient of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following such repurchase of Class A Common Stock, divided by (y) the aggregate number of Common Units held by the Newco Group Members.

(c) In the event that a Newco Group Member purchases additional Common Units pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of the LLC Agreement or receives additional Common Units pursuant to Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement (in each case, whether or not the GE Group Members exercise their right to acquire additional Common Units to keep the proportional ownership the same as prior to the purchase of Common Units by a Newco Group Member pursuant to Section 3.04(b) or Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement), the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted immediately following such purchase (and prior to any Exchange related thereto) to equal the quotient of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following such purchase of additional Common Units, divided by (y) the aggregate number of Common Units held by the Newco Group Members immediately following such purchase of additional Common Units.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, Section 2.03(a), Section 2.03(b) and Section 2.03(c) shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property. This Agreement shall apply to, mutatis mutandis, and all references to “Paired Interests” shall be deemed to include, any security, securities or other property of Newco or the Company which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for or in substitution of shares of Class B Common Stock or Common Units, as applicable, by reason of stock or unit split, reverse stock or unit split, stock or unit dividend or distribution, combination, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, exchange (other than an Exchange) or other transaction.

11

(e) In the event that the number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding does not equal the number of Common Units held by GE Group Members as a result of a GE Group Member’s purchase of additional Common Units pursuant to Section 3.04(b) or Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement, a Paired Interest shall mean one Common Unit together with the number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the quotient of (x) the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by GE Group Members divided by (y) the number of Common Units held by GE Group Members immediately following such purchase of additional Common Units.

(f) This Agreement shall apply to the Paired Interests held by a Holder and its Permitted Transferees as of the date hereof, as well as any Paired Interests hereafter acquired by a Holder and its Permitted Transferees.

Section 2.04. Tender Offers and Other Events with Respect to Newco. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, in the event that a tender offer, share exchange offer, issuer bid, merger, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to Class A Common Stock (a “Newco Offer”) is proposed by Newco or is proposed to Newco or its stockholders and approved by the Board or is otherwise effected or to be effected with the consent or approval of the Board, all Holders shall be permitted (and, in the case of a Newco Change of Control Transaction that occurs after (but not upon) the Trigger Date (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), required) to participate in such Newco Offer by delivery of a Notice of Exchange (which Notice of Exchange shall, in the case of a Newco Change of Control Transaction that occurs after (but not upon) the Trigger Date, be deemed delivered to the Company without any action by such Holders, and in any case shall be effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Newco Offer (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be contingent upon such Newco Offer and not be effective if such Newco Offer is not consummated)). In the case of a Newco Offer proposed by Newco, Newco and any such Holder will use their respective reasonable best efforts to take all such actions and do all such things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit each Holder to participate in such Newco Offer to the same extent or on an economically equivalent basis (taking into account the Exchange Rate at such time) as the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock without discrimination; provided, however, that without limiting the generality of this sentence (and without limiting the ability of any Holder to Exchange Paired Interests at any time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), Newco will, other than in the case of a Newco Change of Control Transaction that occurs after (but not upon) the Trigger Date, use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that each Holder may participate in each such Newco Offer without being required to Exchange Paired Interests. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Holder be entitled to receive in such Newco Offer aggregate consideration for each Paired Interest that is greater than the consideration payable in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock in connection with a Newco Offer (it being understood that payments under or in respect of the Tax Matters Agreement shall not be considered part of any such consideration). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company makes a Cash Exchange Payment to effect an Exchange made to participate in a Newco Offer, the Cash Exchange Payment shall equal the consideration payable in the Newco Offer for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which the Paired Interests are exchangeable.

12

A “Newco Change of Control Transaction” shall mean (a) a merger or consolidation in which (i) Newco is a constituent party or (ii) a subsidiary of Newco is a constituent party and Newco issues shares of its capital stock pursuant to such merger or consolidation, except any such merger or consolidation involving Newco or a subsidiary of Newco in which the holders of shares of capital stock of Newco outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to hold, or whose shares of capital stock of Newco are converted into or exchanged for shares of capital stock that represent, immediately following such merger or consolidation, a majority, by voting power, of the capital stock of (A) the surviving or resulting corporation or other entity or (B) if the surviving or resulting corporation or other entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporation or other entity immediately following such merger or consolidation, the parent corporation or other entity of such surviving or resulting corporation or other entity, (b) the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by Newco or any subsidiary of Newco of all or substantially all the assets of Newco and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or the sale or disposition (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of one or more subsidiaries of Newco if substantially all of the assets of Newco and its subsidiaries taken as a whole are held by such subsidiary or subsidiaries, except where such sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition is to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newco or (c) the acquisition by any Person (other than GE or an Affiliate thereof) of a majority of the outstanding Equity Securities (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of Newco entitled to vote generally in the election of directors to the Board. In the event a Newco Change of Control Transaction that occurs after (but not upon) the Trigger Date and that is approved by the Board after (but not upon) the Trigger Date and, to the extent required by applicable Law or the certificate of incorporation of Newco, the holders of Newco’s common stock, each Holder shall take all action reasonably necessary or appropriate to cause all Paired Interests held by such Holder to be exchanged for shares of Class A Common Stock prior to (but which exchange may be contingent on) the consummation of such Newco Change of Control Transaction.

Section 2.05. Listing of Deliverable Common Stock. Newco shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Class A Common Stock issued upon an Exchange to be listed on the same national securities exchange upon which the outstanding Class A Common Stock may be listed or traded at the time of such issuance.

Section 2.06. Deliverable Common Stock to be Issued; Capital Structure; Cancellation of Paired Units.

(a) Newco shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, the maximum number of shares of Deliverable Common Stock as shall be deliverable upon Exchange of all then-outstanding Paired Interests and shall take such other actions as are necessary to preserve the ratio between the number of shares of Class A Common Stock and the number of Common Units owned by Newco then-outstanding so that such ratio equals the Exchange Rate; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude Newco or the Company from satisfying its obligations in respect of an Exchange by delivery of shares of Deliverable Common Stock that are held in the treasury of Newco or any of its subsidiaries or by delivery of purchased shares of Deliverable Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of Newco or any subsidiary thereof). Newco and the Company represent, warrant and covenant that all shares of Deliverable Common Stock issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance thereof, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

13

(b) Newco and the Company shall take all actions necessary so that, at all times for so long as this Agreement is in effect, subject to Section 2.03, the number of Common Units outstanding equals the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding, except to the extent that any difference arises as a result of (i) repurchases or redemptions of shares of Class A Common Stock by Newco and there is no corresponding repurchase or redemption of Common Units by Newco LLC pursuant to Section 3.11 of the LLC Agreement or (ii) Newco Group Members (or Newco and GE Group Members) purchasing or receiving more Common Units pursuant to Section 3.04(b) or Section 3.04(c) of the LLC Agreement. Newco shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, unless the Company simultaneously effects a subdivision or combination of the Common Units with an identical ratio. The Company shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any unit split, unit dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Common Units, unless Newco simultaneously effects a subdivision or combination of the shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock with an identical ratio.

(c) When a Paired Interest has been Exchanged in accordance with this Agreement, (i) the share of Class B Common Stock constituting a component of such Paired Interest shall be cancelled by Newco and (ii) the Common Unit constituting a component of such Paired Interest shall be (A) deemed transferred from the Exchanging Holder to Newco and, if the Exchange was made for a Cash Exchange Payment, such Common Unit shall be redeemed (or cancelled and deemed redeemed) by the Company.

Section 2.07. Distributions. No Exchange shall impair the right of the Exchanging Holder to receive any distributions payable on the Common Units so exchanged in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Exchange Date for such Exchange. No adjustments in respect of dividends or distributions on any Common Unit will be made on the Exchange of any Paired Interest, and if the Exchange Date with respect to a Common Unit occurs after the record date for the payment of a dividend or other distribution on Common Units but before the date of the payment, then the registered Holder of the Common Unit at the close of business on the record date will be entitled to receive the dividend or other distribution payable on the Common Unit on the payment date notwithstanding the Exchange of the Paired Interests or a default in payment of the dividend or distribution due on the Exchange Date, and, for the avoidance of doubt, no Exchanging Holder shall have the right to receive any distributions (including tax distributions) on any exchanged Common Unit with a record date that occurs from and after any Exchange Date provided, that an Exchanging Holder shall have the right to receive a distribution with respect to the exchanged Common Units immediately prior to the Exchange to the extent that the Exchanging Holder (i) did not receive its Percentage Interest of a Tax Distribution (each as defined in the LLC Agreement) with respect to such Common Units pursuant to Section 4.01(b)(ii) of the LLC Agreement and (ii) has not received any additional distributions to compensate for the shortfall in the Tax Distributions with respect to such Common Units between the applicable Tax Distribution Date (as defined in the LLC Agreement) and the Exchange Date, in an amount equal to such shortfall. For the avoidance of doubt, the Exchanging Holder shall not be entitled to receive, in respect of a single record date, distributions or dividends both on Common Units exchanged by the Exchanging Holder and on shares of Deliverable Common Stock received by the Exchanging Holder in such Exchange.
