• Tag-Along Right (a) If, at any time prior to a Qualified IPO, one or more Sponsor Members propose to Transfer, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, a number of Units representing at least 30% of the Sponsor Members' aggregate Initial Equity Stakes (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to any Person (other than a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of any such Sponsor Member and other than a Transfer in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement and other than to another Sponsor Member) (a "Tag-Along Purchaser"), then, unless such transferring Sponsor Member(s) are entitled to give and do give a Drag-Along Sale Notice (as defined in the LLC Agreement) and no other Sponsor Member(s) has elected to purchase its pro rata share of such Units pursuant to Section 2.04(a) of the Sponsor Agreement, the Company shall first provide written notice to each of the Management Members, which notice (the "Tag-Along Notice") shall state: (i) the maximum number of Units proposed to be Transferred (the "Tag-Along Securities"); (ii) the purchase price per Unit (the "Tag-Along Price") for the Tag-Along Securities and (iii) any other material terms and conditions of such sale, including the proposed transfer date (which date will be within 60 business days after the termination of the Election Period (defined below), subject to extension for any required regulatory approvals). Each of the Management Members that has been provided with the Tag-Along Notice (each, a "Tag-Along Manager") shall have the right to sell to such Tag-Along Purchaser, upon the terms set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, up to the aggregate number of Units which are held by such Tag-Along Manager multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Units proposed to be sold by the transferring Sponsor Member as reflected in the Tag-Along Notice and the denominator of which is the total number of Units which are held by the transferring Sponsor Member. If the number of Units elected to be sold by the Tag-Along Managers and any other individuals identified from time to time on Exhibit A to the LLC Agreement, the transferring Sponsor Member and any other Sponsor Members electing to participate in such sale is greater than the number of Tag-Along Securities specified in the Tag-Along Notice, the number of Units being sold by each such seller shall be reduced such that the applicable seller shall be entitled to (and obligated to) sell only their pro rata share of Units (based on the aggregate number of Units held by such seller to the total number of Units held by all of such electing sellers). The transferring Sponsor Member(s), the Sponsor Members electing to participate in such sale and the Tag-Along Manager(s) exercising their rights pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall effect the sale of the Tag-Along Securities, and such Tag-Along Manager(s) shall sell the number of Tag-Along Securities required to be sold by such Tag-Along Manager(s) pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) within 60 business days after the expiration of the Election Period, subject to extension for any required regulatory approvals.

• Drag Along Right Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Holder has not exercised its Tag-Along Right with respect to the maximum number of Holder’s Shares for which such Holder is permitted (pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii)(B) above) to exercise such Tag-Along Right in respect of a Third Party Sale, then, upon the demand of any Selling Fortress Entity participating in such Third Party Sale (in each such entity’s sole discretion), such Holder shall sell to the respective Third Party the number of whole Holder’s Shares (rounded upwards or downwards, as applicable), whether or not the restrictions on Transfer of Common Stock have lapsed, equal to the product of (x) the total number of Holder’s Shares held by such Holder on the date of the Drag-Along Notice (as defined below) and (y) the Third Party Sale Percentage, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as such Selling Fortress Entity has agreed to with such Third Party; provided, however, that each such Holder shall not be permitted to sell any unvested Holder’s Shares (provided that the Company may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any unvested Holder’s Shares); provided further that such Selling Fortress Entity shall use its reasonable, good faith efforts to provide that (A) the only representation and warranty which such Holder shall be required to make in connection with the Third Party Sale is a representation and warranty with respect to such Holder’s own ownership of the Holder’s Shares to be sold by it and its ability to convey title thereto free and clear of liens, encumbrances and adverse claims and (B) the liability of such Holder with respect to any representation and warranty made in connection with the Third Party Sale is the several liability of such Holder (and not joint with any other person) and that such liability is limited to the amount of proceeds actually received by such Holder in the Third Party Sale; provided further, that a Holder shall not be obligated to participate in any Third Party Sale pursuant to this Section 2(b)(iii) unless such Holder is provided an opinion of counsel to the effect that the Third Party Sale is not in violation of applicable federal and state securities or other laws or, if such Holder is not provided with an opinion with respect to the matters contemplated by this proviso, each Selling Fortress Entity who has delivered a Drag-Along Notice to such Holder shall indemnify such Holder for any such violation. If the Third Party Sale is in the form of a merger transaction, each Holder agrees to vote its Holder’s Shares in favor of such merger and not to exercise any rights of appraisal or dissent afforded under applicable law.

If Class B Stockholders do not elect to purchase such Shares pursuant to Section 5.4, the Transferring Stockholders shall, prior to such sale, deliver to the other Class B Stockholders prompt written notice (the “Transfer Notice”), which notice shall state (i) the name of the proposed transferee, (ii) the number of Shares proposed to be transferred (the “Transferred Shares”) and the percentage (the “Tag Percentage”) that such number of Shares constitutes of the total number of Shares owned by such Transferring Stockholders, (iii) the proposed purchase price therefore, including a description of any non-cash consideration sufficiently detailed to permit the determination of the Fair Market Value thereof, and (iv) the other material terms and conditions of the proposed sale, including the proposed sale date (which date may not be less than 30 days after delivery of the Transfer Notice). Such notice shall be accompanied by a written offer from the proposed transferee to purchase the Transferred Shares, which offer may be conditioned upon the consummation of the sale by the Transferring Stockholders, or the most recent drafts of the purchase and sale documentation between the Transferring Stockholders and the transferee which shall make provision for the participation of the other Class B Stockholders in such sale consistent with this Section 5.5.

If the Drag-Along Sale is not consummated with respect to any Common Shares acquired upon exercise of such options, or the Drag-Along Sale is not consummated, such options shall be deemed not to have been exercised or canceled, as applicable.
