3.Conversion Requirement.

(a)The Holders agree that (i) in the event a Holder Sells during any Conversion Period a Dividend Share received on a share of Class B Common Stock, such Holder shall, within ten (10) business days following such Sale, be required to convert such share of Class B Common Stock into a share of Class A Common Stock and (ii) in the event a Holder Sells during any Conversion Period a Dividend Share received on a share of Class C Common Stock, such Holder shall within ten (10) business days following such Sale be required to convert such share of Class C Common Stock into one share of Class A Common Stock, unless, in the case of clauses (i) or (ii), a majority of the Independent Directors otherwise approves upon written request of Holder provided at least five (5) business days prior to any such Dividend Share conversion (the requirement described in this Section 3(a), the “Conversion Requirement”). In the event a share of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock on which a Dividend Share was received is converted into a share of Class A Common Stock (whether in connection with a Transfer that was not a Permitted Transfer or otherwise) prior to any Sale of such Dividend Share, the Conversion Requirement will be deemed satisfied with respect to any Sale of such Dividend Share. In addition, a Holder will be deemed to satisfy the Conversion Requirement with respect to a Dividend Share if such Holder or another Holder converts a share of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, into a share of Class A Common Stock in lieu of the share of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock on which such Dividend Share was received within ten (10) business days following the Sale of such Dividend Share. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Conversion Requirement shall not apply to any Sale (i) that would meet the requirements of a Permitted Transfer or (ii) (x) that constitutes a donation of Dividend Shares to a Tax-Exempt Organization or (y) the net proceeds of which are donated to a

5

T ax-E xempt O rganization. Furthermore, a Holder shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement to have converted a share of Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock into a share of Class A Common Stock if such Holder shall have submitted an irrevocable election to the Company or its transfer agent to effectuate such conversion.

(b)Except as expressly set forth in this Section 3, this Agreement shall not limit or restrict any Holder’s ability to Transfer any shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Class C Common Stock (subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation).

(c)For all purposes of this Agreement, a Holder who Sells any shares of Class A Common Stock during the term of this Agreement shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement, unless, in any case, the applicable Holder otherwise instructs in writing (and a copy of such instruction shall be provided to the Company following any such Sale), to Sell (i) first, shares of Class A Common Stock other than the Dividend Shares, (ii) second, Dividend Shares received on such Holder’s shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Dividend, (iii) third, Dividend Shares received on such Holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Dividend, and (iv) fourth, Dividend Shares that were received on such Holder’s shares of Class C Common Stock pursuant the Stock Dividend. In the event of any Transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock by a Holder not addressed by this Section 3(c), such Holder shall notify the Company in writing which shares of Class A Common Stock have been Transferred, such notice to be provided following any such Transfer.

4.Conditions Requiring Conversion of All Class C Common Stock. Notwithstanding Article V, Section 6(a)(iii) of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, subject to the payment of and after giving effect to the Stock Dividend, each share of Class C Common Stock held by the Co-Founder and the Co-Founder’s Permitted Transferees and Qualified Trustees will be convertible into Class B Common Stock at such time as such Class C Common Stock represents in the aggregate less than 60% of the Co-Founder’s Base Class C Common Stock (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation); provided, however, for purposes of determining the percentage of such Co-Founder’s Base Class C Common Stock under this Section 4, the number of shares of Class C Common Stock held by the Co-Founder and the Co-Founder’s Permitted Transferees and Qualified Trustees shall exclude any shares of Class C Common Stock that have been Sold by the Co-Founder or the Co-Founder’s Permitted Transferees or Qualified Trustees to a Robert Murphy Related Party at the applicable time of determination, unless the Co-Founder retains Voting Control over such shares of Class C Common Stock at the applicable time of determination.

5.Equal Status. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article V, Section 4 of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company shall not approve any Liquidation Event, and the Holders shall not vote in favor of any Liquidation Event, unless the shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, and Class C Common Stock are treated equally and ratably, on a per share basis, with respect to any consideration into which such shares are converted or any consideration paid or otherwise distributed in respect of such shares to stockholders of the Company, unless different treatment of each such class is approved in advance by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the applicable class treated adversely, voting separately as a class, excluding, in the case of any adverse

6

treatment of the Class A Common Stock, any shares of Class A Common Stock held by the Holders and any Robert Murphy Related Party; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, consideration to be paid or received by a holder of Common Stock in connection with any Liquidation Event pursuant to any employment, consulting, severance or similar services arrang ement shall not be deemed to be “consideration” for purposes of this Section 5.

6.Scope of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not in any way constitute an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any right, preference, privilege, term or provision set forth or contained in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

7.Effectiveness; Termination.

(a)Section 1, Section 2, Section 6, Section 7 and Section 8 of this Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date. Section 3, Section 4 and Section 5 of this Agreement shall only become effective if the Stock Dividend is paid on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, including that it has been paid on each share of Common Stock outstanding as of the record date for determining the holders of Common Stock entitled to payment of the Stock Dividend. Unless earlier terminated as set forth in Section 7(b) or Section 7(c) below, this Agreement shall terminate automatically and without further action by any Party at such time as the Co-Founder and his Permitted Transferees and Qualified Trustees cease to own any shares of Class C Common Stock or Class B Common Stock following the payment of the Stock Dividend (including as a result of the occurrence of the Final Conversion Date (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation)).

(b)This Agreement may be terminated at any time, by a written instrument executed by each of the Holders and that has been approved by a majority of the Independent Directors and executed on behalf of the Company.

(c)This Agreement shall terminate automatically and without further action by any Party if the Dividend Declaration Condition has not been satisfied on or before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date.

8.Miscellaneous.

(a)Joinder. During the term of this Agreement, in the event a Holder Transfers shares of Common Stock to a person that meets the requirements of a Permitted Transferee or Qualified Trustee, the Holder shall cause such person to become a party to this Agreement as a “Holder” and shall deliver to the Company a duly executed counterpart signature page in connection with such Transfer.

(b)Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in Section 8(a) with respect to a Transfer of shares of Common Stock by a Holder to a person that meets the requirements of a Permitted Transferee or Qualified Trustee, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned or transferred (whether by operation of law or otherwise) by the Company, on the one hand, or any Holder, on the other hand, without the prior written consent of the Holders or the Company, respectively, and any purported assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be void and unenforceable; provided, however, that the Company may assign or transfer this agreement to

Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

No delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver of any other right, power or privilege hereunder, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.
