Upon any decrease in the number of directors that a Principal Stockholder is entitled to designate for election to the Board, such Principal Stockholder shall take all Necessary Action to cause the appropriate number of Principal Stockholder Designees to tender their resignations. The Board shall have the option, but not the obligation, to accept any such resignations, and if such resignation is accepted, the Board may take all Necessary Action to cause the authorized size of the Board to be reduced accordingly.

(c) CEO Representation. Subject to the last sentence of Section 3.1(d), if at any time none of the Founders is the Chief Executive Officer, (i) the Chief Executive Officer shall be designated for election or appointed to the Board as promptly as reasonably practicable, (ii) the Board may take all Necessary Action to so designate or appoint such Chief Executive Officer and cause the authorized size of the Board to be increased accordingly, and (iii) if the term of such Chief Executive Officer as a director on the Board is to expire in conjunction with any annual or special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected, such Chief Executive Officer shall be included in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election.

(d) Vacancies. Except as provided in Section 3.1(b) and the last sentence of this Section 3.1(d), (i) each Principal Stockholder shall have the exclusive right to remove its designees from the Board, and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause the removal of any such designee at the request of the designating Principal Stockholder and (ii) each Principal Stockholder shall have the exclusive right to designate for election or appointment to the Board directors to fill vacancies created by reason of death, removal or resignation of its designees to the Board, and the Company and the other Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause any such vacancies to be filled by replacement directors designated by such designating Principal Stockholder as promptly as reasonably practicable. If at any time the Chief Executive Officer (A) is a Founder and is terminated for cause (as such term is defined in the employment or other similar agreement with respect to such Chief Executive Officer) or (B) is not a Founder and resigns or is terminated for any reason, the Chief Executive Officer shall resign from the Board, and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to remove the Chief Executive Officer from the Board and fill such vacancy with the next Chief Executive Officer in office; provided that, in the case of prong (A), the Founder Investor shall have the right to jointly designate a replacement director subject to the consent of at least one of the other Principal Stockholders, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, no Principal Stockholder shall have the right to designate a replacement director, and the Company and the other Principal Stockholders shall not be required to take any action to cause any vacancy to be filled by any such designee, to the extent that election or appointment of such designee to the Board would result in a number of directors designated by such Principal Stockholder in excess of the number of directors that such Principal Stockholder is then entitled to designate for membership on the Board pursuant to Section 3.1(b).

(e) Additional Unaffiliated Directors. For so long as any Principal Stockholder has the right to designate at least one director for nomination under this Agreement, the Company will take all Necessary Action to ensure that the number of directors serving on the Board shall not exceed ten; provided, that the number of directors may be increased if necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable laws and stock exchange regulations and applicable listing requirements.

Subject to applicable laws and stock exchange regulations:

(1) The WTM Investor and the Insignia Investor shall each have the right to have a representative appointed to serve on each committee of the Board (except for the Audit Committee), and the Founder Investor shall have the right to have a representative appointed to serve on each committee of the Board (except for the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee), in each case for so long as such Principal Stockholder has the right to designate at least one director for election to the Board. At any time any Principal Stockholder is entitled to have a representative appointed to serve on a committee of the Board pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence but either (i) does not elect to have a representative appointed or (ii) is prohibited by applicable laws or stock exchange regulations or applicable listing requirements from having a representative appointed, such Principal Stockholder shall have the right to have a representative appointed as an observer (each, an “Observer”) to such committee.

(2) Each Unaffiliated Director shall serve on the Audit Committee and, at all times during which this Agreement is operative and effective, the Board shall have determined that at least one director serving on the Audit Committee shall qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” under the rules and regulations of the SEC. All other directors of the Board shall have the right to participate as an Observer to the Audit Committee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Observer may be excluded from any portion of any meetings and/or distributions of materials if the Company is advised by its legal counsel that such Observer’s attendance at such meeting or receipt of such materials which would adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its legal counsel.

(g) Reimbursement of Expenses. In accordance with the Company By-laws, the Company shall reimburse each WTM Director, Insignia Director, Founder Director and Principal Stockholder Designee for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such director’s or designee’s participation in the meetings of the Board or any committee of the Board, including reasonable travel, lodging and meal expenses.

The Company shall defend at its own cost and expense any and all Actions which may be brought in which the Stockholder Indemnitees may be impleaded with others upon any Action by the Stockholder Indemnitees, except that if such damage shall be proven to be the direct result of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by any of the Stockholder Indemnitees, then such Stockholder Indemnitee shall reimburse the Company for the costs of defense and other costs incurred by the Company in proportion to such Stockholder Indemnitee’s culpability as proven. In the event of the assertion against any Stockholder Indemnitee of any Action or the commencement of any Action, the Company shall be entitled to participate in such Action and in the investigation of such Action and, after written notice from the Company to such Stockholder Indemnitee, to assume the investigation or defense of such Action with counsel of the Company’s choice at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Stockholder Indemnitee.

The Company hereby (i) agrees that the Company and any subsidiary of the Company that provides indemnity shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its or their obligations to an Indemnitee shall be primary and any obligation of any Principal Stockholder Indemnitor to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by an Indemnitee shall be secondary), (ii) agrees that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by an Indemnitee 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 this agreement or any other agreement between the Company and an Indemnitee, without regard to any rights an Indemnitee may have against any Principal Stockholder Indemnitor or their insurers, and (iii) irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Principal Stockholder Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Principal Stockholder 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 Principal Stockholder Indemnitors on behalf of an Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company, as the case may be, shall affect the foregoing and the Principal Stockholder Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Indemnitee against the Company.

Each Principal Stockholder agrees to cast all votes to which such Principal Stockholder is entitled in respect of its Company Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, so as to cause to be elected to the Board those individuals designated in accordance with Section 3.1(a)-(e) and to otherwise effect the intent of this Article III; provided, that at any time any Principal Stockholder holds more than 5%, but less than 10%, of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, such Principal Stockholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate its obligations with the respect to the foregoing voting agreement (and the reciprocal obligations of the other Principal Stockholders with respect to any Principal Stockholder Designee of such terminating Principal Stockholder shall automatically terminate). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the election by such Principal Stockholder to terminate its obligations with respect to the foregoing voting agreement, all other terms of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to such terminating Principal Stockholder.

Section 3.3. Additional Management Provisions. The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Principal Stockholder Designees of each Principal Stockholder entitled to designate a member of the Board pursuant to this Agreement shall receive such information relating to the financial condition, business, prospects or corporate affairs of the Company as such Principal Stockholder may from time to time reasonably request, and such Principal Stockholder Designee may share such information about the Company with such Principal Stockholder.

Section 3.4. Confidentiality. Each Stockholder agrees with the Company for the benefit of the Company that such Stockholder will, until the second anniversary of the termination of this Agreement with respect to such Stockholder, keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose (other than to monitor, increase or decrease its investment in the Company) any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to this Agreement or provided by or on behalf of the Company to such Stockholder unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 3.4 by such Stockholder), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the Stockholder without use of the Company’s confidential information, (c) is determined by the Company in good faith upon request of any Stockholder no longer to be confidential information (as confirmed in writing to the Stockholder by the Board) or (d) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Stockholder by a third party without the Stockholder’s knowledge that the disclosure of such information constitutes a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that a Stockholder may disclose confidential information (i) to its attorneys, accountants, consultants and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; (ii) to any existing or prospective Affiliate, partner, member, stockholder or wholly owned subsidiary of such Stockholder in the ordinary course of business; provided that such Stockholder informs such Person that such information is confidential and directs such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such information; or (iii) subject to the terms of Article I, as may otherwise be required by law, including, without limitation, to the extent required in periodic disclosures or for regulatory purposes; provided that the Stockholder promptly notifies the Company of such disclosure and takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure; provided, further that nothing in this Section 3.4 shall be deemed to restrict any Stockholder’s ability to monetize its equity investment in the Company in compliance with applicable securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Company and each Stockholder acknowledges that each other Stockholder may develop or receive from third parties information that is the same as or similar to the confidential information of the Company, and agrees that nothing in this Agreement restricts or prohibits any Stockholder (by itself or through a third party) from developing, receiving or disclosing such information, or any products, services, concepts, ideas, systems or techniques that are similar to or compete with the products, services, concepts, ideas, systems or techniques contemplated by or embodied in the confidential information of the Company.

13

Section 3.5. Access. The Company shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, auditors and other agents to, (a) afford the officers, employees, auditors and other agents of each Principal Stockholder, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, reasonable access at all reasonable times to its officers, employees, auditors, legal counsel, properties, offices, plants and other facilities and to all books and records, and (b) afford each Principal Stockholder the opportunity to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries with their respective officers from time to time as such Principal Stockholder may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 3.5 to provide access to any information if the Company has been advised by its legal counsel that the disclosure of such information would adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its legal counsel.

Section 3.6. Controlled Company.

(a) The Principal Stockholders acknowledge and agree that, (i) by virtue of this Article III, they are acting as a “group” within the meaning of the stock exchange rules as of the date hereof, and (ii) by virtue of the combined voting power of Company Shares held by the Principal Stockholders representing more than 50% of the total voting power of the Company Shares outstanding as of the Closing, the Company qualifies as of the Closing as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the stock exchange rules.

(b) So long as the Company qualifies as a “controlled company” for purposes of the stock exchange rules, the Company will elect to be a “controlled company” for purposes of the stock exchange rules, and will disclose in its annual meeting proxy statement that it is a “controlled company” and the basis for that determination. If the Company ceases to qualify as a “controlled company” for purposes of the stock exchange rules, the Principal Stockholders and the Company will take whatever action may be reasonably necessary in relation to such party, if any, to cause the Company to comply with stock exchange rules as then in effect within the timeframe for compliance available under such rules.

14

Section 4.2. Freedom to Pursue Opportunities. Subject to Section 12.03 of the Company Charter and any contractual obligations by which the Company or any or all of the Principal Stockholders may be bound from time to time, none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of their Affiliates shall have a duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates, including those business activities or lines of business deemed to be competing with the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of their Affiliates, nor any of their respective officers or directors, shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders, or to any Affiliate of the Company or such Affiliate’s stockholders or members, for breach of any fiduciary duty, solely by reason of any such activities of any Principal Stockholder or its Affiliates, or of the participation therein by any officer or director of any Principal Stockholder or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, but subject to any contractual obligations by which the Company or any or all of the Principal Stockholders may be bound from time to time, none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of its Affiliates shall have a duty to refrain from doing business with any client, customer or vendor of the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates, and without limiting Section 12.03 of the Company Charter, none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of their Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors or employees shall be deemed to have breached his, her or its fiduciary duties, if any, to the Company or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Company or such Affiliate’s stockholders or members solely by reason of engaging in any such activity. Subject to any contractual provisions by which the Company or any or all of the Principal Stockholders or their respective Affiliates may be bound from time to time, in the event that any Principal Stockholder or any of their Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors or employees, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other matter which may be a corporate opportunity for any Principal Stockholder (or any of its respective Affiliates), on the one hand, and the Company (or any of its Affiliates), on the other hand, none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of their Affiliates, officers, directors or employees shall have any duty to communicate or offer such corporate opportunity to the Company or any of its Affiliates, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, none of the Principal Stockholders nor any of their Affiliates, officers, directors or employees shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders, or any Affiliate of the Company or such Affiliate’s stockholders or members, for breach of any fiduciary duty or otherwise, solely by reason of the fact that such Principal Stockholder or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors or employees acquires, pursues or obtains such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person, or otherwise does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company or any of its Affiliates, and the Company (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and their respective stockholders and Affiliates) to the fullest extent permitted by law hereby waives and renounces in accordance with Section 122(17) of the DGCL any claim that such business opportunity constituted a corporate opportunity that should have been presented to the Company or any of its Affiliates. For purposes of this Section 4.2, the term “Affiliate” shall be given the meaning set forth in prong (a) of the definition herein.

17

Section 4.3. Assignment; Benefit.

(a) The rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, subject to the prior termination of this Agreement with respect to any Principal Stockholder in accordance with Section 4.5. Any attempted assignment of rights or obligations in violation of this Section 4.3 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the requirement to obtain the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, each of WTM, Insignia and the Founders, without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, may, at any time, assign their rights and obligations hereunder (in whole or in part) to any of their respective Affiliates to whom such party transfers any shares of Common Stock (together with an equivalent number of Class B-1 Units, in the case of any transfer of Class B Common Stock) held by such party as of the Closing; provided that any such assignee shall only become a party hereto by executing a counterpart signature page hereof and, if applicable, joinders to the Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms therein (any such assignee, a “Permitted Affiliate Transferee”).

(b) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement other than the Indemnitees and the Principal Stockholder Indemnitors under Section 3.1(h), and the Principal Stockholders and their Representatives under Section 4.2.

Nothing in this Section 4.4 shall be deemed to modify any of the rights of WTM, Insignia or the Founders set forth in the Tax Receivables Agreement.

18

Section 4.6. Limits on Transfer or Issuance of Common Stock.

(a) The parties each acknowledge and agree that no shares of Class A Common Stock may be issued unless (a) an equivalent number of Class A-1 Units are issued therewith (including any issuances of shares of Class A Common Stock held in treasury or otherwise by the Company or any of its subsidiaries) or (b) the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock is to a holder of Class B-1 Units in exchange for Class B-1 Units (together with an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock) pursuant to the Exchange Agreement.

Section 4.7. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable such provision shall be construed by limiting it so as to be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent provided by law and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

19

Section 4.8. Entire Agreement; Amendment.

(a) This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated herein and supersedes and replaces any prior understanding, agreement or statement of intent, in each case written or oral, of any kind and every nature with respect hereto. This Agreement or any provision hereof may only be amended, modified or waived, in whole or in part, at any time by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Principal Stockholders with respect to which this Agreement is not terminated.

(b) No waiver of any breach of any of the terms of this Agreement shall be effective unless such waiver is expressly made in writing and executed and delivered by the party against whom such waiver is claimed. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

(c) The parties hereby agree to take no action to amend or repeal the provisions set forth in Section 10.02 of the Company Charter (whether directly, by the filing of a certificate of designations, powers, preferences, rights or privileges, by a Business Combination Transaction or otherwise) in any respect, or to adopt, amend (whether directly, by the filing of a certificate of designations, powers, preferences, rights or privileges, by a Business Combination Transaction or otherwise) or repeal any other provision of the Company Charter which would have the effect of modifying or permitting the circumvention of the provisions set forth in Section 10.02 of the Company Charter, unless such action is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than 75% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock entitled to vote with respect thereto.

Section 4.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 4.11. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY RELATED DISPUTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

Section 4.12. Jurisdiction. ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE PARTIES RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR (TO THE EXTENT SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION EXISTS THEREFOR) THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE, AND THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF BOTH SUCH COURTS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ANY ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT ISSUED BY ONE OF THE FOREGOING COURTS MAY BE ENFORCED IN ANY JURISDICTION.

Section 4.13. Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT SUCH PARTY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE DEALINGS OF ANY STOCKHOLDER IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO THAT THIS SECTION 4.13 CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH IT IS RELYING AND WILL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 4.13 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

23

Section 4.14. Specific Performance. It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them by this Agreement and that, in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law. Any such party shall therefore be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond, and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

Section 4.15. Subsequent Acquisition of Shares. Any equity securities of the Company acquired subsequent to the date hereof by a Stockholder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 4.16. Transfer Restrictions on Class B Common Stock.

(a) Any purported transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock in violation of the restrictions described in Section 4.6(a) (the “Restrictions”) shall be null and void. If, notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition, a person shall, voluntarily or involuntarily, purportedly become or attempt to become, the purported owner (“Purported Owner”) of shares of Class B Common Stock transferred in violation of the Restrictions, then the Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to such shares of Class B Common Stock (the “Restricted Shares”), and the purported transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”).

(b) Upon a determination by the Board that a person has attempted or may attempt to transfer or to acquire Restricted Shares in violation of Section 4.6(a), the Board may take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to such transfer or acquisition on the books and records of the Company, including without limitation to cause the Transfer Agent to record the Purported Owner’s transferor as the record owner of the Restricted Shares, and to institute proceedings to enjoin or rescind any such transfer or acquisition.

(c) The Board may, to the extent permitted by law, from time to time establish, modify, amend or rescind, by by-law or otherwise, regulations and procedures not inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 4.16 for determining whether any acquisition of shares of Class B Common Stock would violate the Restrictions and for the orderly application, administration and implementation of the provisions of this Section 4.16. Any such procedures and regulations shall be kept on file with the Secretary of the Company and with its Transfer Agent and shall be made available for inspection by any prospective transferee and, upon written request, shall be mailed to any holder of shares of Class B Common Stock.

24

(d) The Board shall have all powers necessary to implement the Restrictions, including without limitation the power to prohibit the transfer of any shares of Class B Common Stock in violation thereof.

(e) Upon the transfer of any shares of Class B Common Stock to the Company by the Principal Stockholders, or their successors and assigns, such shares of Class B Common Stock shall immediately be cancelled on the books and records of the Company and shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company.

Section 4.17. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become operative and effective upon, but contingent on, the effectiveness of the Company Charter.
