At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action on the part of any Party, all the Company Options that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically, at the Effective Time, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into an option to acquire a number of shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, in each case, as determined under this Section 3.1(c)(iii) (each such converted option, a

“Rollover Option”). Each Rollover Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, effective as of the Effective Time: (A) each such Rollover Option shall be exercisable solely for shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock; (B) the number of shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock subject to each Rollover Option shall be determined by multiplying (1) the number of New Common Units subject to the corresponding Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and following the recapitalization of the Company pursuant to the Company A&R LLCA) by (2) the Exchange Ratio, and then rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock; and (C) the per share exercise price for the Buyer Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Rollover Option shall be determined by dividing (1) the per unit exercise price of the Company Option as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (2) the Exchange Ratio, and then rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversions described in this Section 3.1(c)(iii) will be subject to such modifications, if any, as are required to cause the conversions to be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(iv) Transfer Restrictions. Any Equity Interests issued hereunder as Equity Merger Consideration hereunder shall bear a restrictive legend that prohibits transfers of such Equity Interests in a manner that would be inconsistent with the Buyer Bylaws.

(d) Equity Interests Held in Treasury or Owned. (i) At the Blocker Effective Time, any shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests of a Blocker held in the treasury of such Blocker or owned by such Blocker immediately prior to the Blocker Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto and (ii) at the Effective Time, any Company Units held in the treasury of the Company or owned by any Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto (any such shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests or such Company Units contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii), “Cancelled Equity Interests”).

(e) Amendment to Company LLCA. In connection with the Company Merger, the Company shall cause Buyer to be admitted as a member of the Company and appoint the Buyer as the managing member of the Company pursuant to the Company A&R LLCA.

(f) Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no evidence of book-entry shares representing any fractional share of Buyer Class A Common Stock, Buyer Class V Voting Stock or New Common Units shall be issued in exchange for Blocker Equity Interests, or Company Units or Company Units underlying Company Options and no cash or other consideration will be paid in respect of such fractional shares. For purposes of calculating the aggregate number of shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock, Buyer Class V Voting Stock and New Common Units to be issued in exchange for Blocker Equity Interests or Company Units pursuant to the terms of Section 3.1(a)(ii) and Section 3.1(c)(ii), as applicable, all Company Units or Blocker Equity Interests held by the applicable holder shall be aggregated, and the Per Share Blocker Merger Consideration or Per Unit Unitholder Merger Consideration, as applicable, shall be applied to that aggregate number of Company Units or Blocker Equity Interests, as applicable, held by such holder, and not on a share-by-share or unit-by-unit basis, and the number of shares of Buyer Class A Common Stock, Buyer Class V Voting Stock and New Common Units to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share or unit, as applicable.

Section 3.2 Determination of Merger Consideration.

(a) No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Buyer: (i) a good faith estimate of the Per Share Blocker Merger Consideration and the Per Unit Unitholder Merger Consideration, and each component and subcomponent thereof, including the Distributed Cash Amount, and (ii) the Allocation Schedule as a schedule thereto ((i) and (ii) together, the “Estimated Company Closing Statement”).

Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.5(a), each Blocker Equity Interest and Company Unit shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Per Share Blocker Merger Consideration or Per Unit Unitholder Merger Consideration, respectively, to which such Blocker Owner or Company Unitholder is entitled pursuant to this Article III.

(b) Company Unitholder Materials.

From and after the Effective Time, (i) the Blocker Dissenting Shares shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall cease to exist and (ii) the Blocker Dissenting Shareholders shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under Section 262 of the DGCL and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a stockholder of Buyer, the Surviving Company or any of its Affiliates; provided, that if any Blocker Dissenting Shareholder effectively withdraws or loses such appraisal rights (whether through failure to perfect such appraisal rights or otherwise), then the Blocker Dissenting Shares held by such Blocker Dissenting Shareholder (A) shall no longer be deemed to be Blocker Dissenting Shares and (B) shall be treated as if they had been converted automatically at the Blocker Effective Time into the right to receive the Per Share Blocker Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii) upon delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Blocker Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other documents or agreements required by the Blocker Letter of Transmittal) and the surrender of the applicable documents and other deliverables, including the Unitholder Materials. Each Blocker Dissenting Shareholder who becomes entitled to payment for his, her or its Blocker Dissenting Shares pursuant to the DGCL shall receive payment thereof from the Buyer in accordance with the DGCL. Each Blocker shall give the Company and Buyer prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other documents or instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Blocker relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL, and the Company shall have the right to control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, have the opportunity to participate in, but not control, all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands.

Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability to any of the Group Companies, there have been no “prohibited transactions” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 or 407 of ERISA that are not otherwise exempt under Section 408 of ERISA and no breaches of fiduciary duty (as determined under ERISA) with respect to any Company Employee Benefit Plan.

With respect to each Company Employee Benefit Plan and except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability to any of the Group Companies, all contributions, distributions, reimbursements and premium payments that are due have been timely made in accordance with the terms of the Company Employee Benefit Plan and in compliance with the requirements of applicable Law, and all contributions, distributions, reimbursements and premium payments for any period ending on or before the Closing Date that are not yet due have been made or properly accrued.

(d) Except as set forth on Section 4.15(d), neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, alone or together with any other event would, directly or indirectly, (i) result in any payment or benefit becoming due or payable, or required to be provided, to any current or former officer, employee, director or individual independent contractor of the Group Companies under a Company Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise, (ii) increase the amount or value of any benefit or compensation otherwise payable or required to be provided to any current or former officer, employee, director or individual independent contractor of the Group Companies under a Company Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise, (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, vesting or funding, or forfeiture, of any such benefit or compensation under a Company Employee Benefit Plan or otherwise, (iv) result in the forgiveness in whole or in part of any outstanding loans made by the Group Companies to any current or former officer, employee, director or individual independent contractor of the Group Companies, or (v) limit or restrict the Group Companies’ or the Buyer’s ability to merge, amend or terminate any Company Employee Benefit Plan.

(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to each Company Employee Benefit Plan that is primarily for the benefit of employees, directors, or individual independent contractors of the Group Company who reside or work primarily outside of the United States (each, a “Foreign Plan”): (i) each Foreign Plan required to be registered or intended to meet certain regulatory requirements for favorable tax treatment has been timely and properly registered and has been maintained in all material respects in good standing with the applicable regulatory authorities and requirements; (ii) no Foreign Plan is a defined benefit plan (as defined in ERISA, whether or not subject to ERISA), seniority premium, termination indemnity, provident fund, or gratuity fund, scheme, plan or arrangement; and (iii) all Foreign Plans that are required to be funded are fully funded, and adequate reserves have been established with respect to any Foreign Plan that is not required to be funded.

(f) Each Company Employee Benefit Plan or other arrangement that is, in any part, a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code has been operated and maintained in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance thereunder in all material respects. No Person has any right against the Group Companies to be grossed up for, reimbursed or otherwise indemnified for any Tax or related interest or penalties incurred by such Person, including under Sections 409A or 4999 of the Code or otherwise.

(g) Neither the execution or delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby could, either alone or in conjunction with any other event, result in the payment or provision of any amount or benefit that could, individually or in combination with any other payment, constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code).

Section 4.16 Insurance. Schedule 4.16 contains a true, correct and complete list of all material insurance policies carried by or for the benefit of the Group Companies (the “Insurance Policies”) as of the Execution Date and the scope of coverage of each such Insurance Policy. Each Insurance Policy is legal, valid, and binding on and enforceable by the applicable Group Company, is in full force and effect, and no written notice of cancellation or termination has been received by any Group Company with respect to any such Insurance Policy, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. All premiums due under such policies have been paid in accordance with the terms of such Insurance Policy, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. No Group Company is in material breach or material default under, nor has it taken any action or failed to take any action which, with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute a material breach or material default under, or permit a material increase in premium, cancellation, material reduction in coverage, material denial or non-renewal with respect to any Insurance Policy. During the twelve (12) months prior to the Execution Date, there have been no material claims by or with respect to the Group Companies under any Insurance Policy as to which coverage has been denied or disputed in any material respect by the underwriters of such Insurance Policy, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, all of such Permits are valid and in full force and effect and none of such Permits will be terminated as a result of, or in connection with, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, no Group Company is in default under any such Permit and no condition exists that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would be reasonably expected to constitute a default under such Permit, and no Proceeding is pending or, threatened to suspend, revoke, withdraw, modify or limit any such Permit.

For and in consideration of the Buyer entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Company and each Blocker, for itself and the Affiliates and Persons it has the authority to bind, hereby agrees it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to (i) the public Buyer Shareholders upon the redemption of their shares and (ii) the underwriters of Buyer’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account, in each case as set forth in the Trust Agreement (collectively, the “Trust Distributions”)), and hereby waives any claims it has or may have at any time solely against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) as a result of, or arising out of, any discussions, Contracts or agreements (including this Agreement) among the Buyer and the Company or the Company’s Equityholders and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) for any reason whatsoever; provided that nothing in this Section 13.9 shall limit any right to specifically enforce this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.11. The Company and each Blocker agree and acknowledge that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by the Buyer and the Sponsor to induce the Buyer to enter into this Agreement, and the Company and each Blocker further intend and understand such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and each Blocker and each of their respective Affiliates and Persons that they have the authority to bind under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company or any Blocker or any of their respective Affiliates or Persons that they have the authority to bind commences any Proceeding against the Buyer or any of its Affiliates based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Buyer or its representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Buyer or its representatives, the Company and each Blocker hereby acknowledge and agree that their respective and their respective Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against assets of the Buyer not in the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company or any Blocker or such Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalves) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including the Trust Distributions) or any amounts contained in the Trust Account while in the Trust Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 13.9 shall serve to limit or prohibit (i) the Company’s, each Blocker’s, any Company Equityholder’s or any Company Optionholder’s right to pursue a claim against the Buyer for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account or pursuant to Section 13.11 for specific performance or other non-monetary relief, or (ii) any claims that the Company, any Blocker, any Company Equityholder or any Company Optionholder may have in the future against the Buyer’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account (other than the Trust Distributions) and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds) other than as contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 13.10 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts and by e-mail, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement. No Party shall raise the use of e-mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of e-mail as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a Contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 13.11 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are unique and recognize and affirm that in the event any of the provisions hereof are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached, money damages would be inadequate (and therefore the non-breaching Party would have no adequate remedy at Law) and the non-breaching Party would be irreparably damaged. Accordingly, each Party agrees that each other Party shall be entitled to specific performance, an injunction or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security or needing to prove irreparable harm) to prevent breaches of the provisions hereof and to enforce specifically this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to the extent expressly contemplated herein or therein and the terms and provisions hereof in any Proceeding, in addition to any other remedy to which such Person may be entitled. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in accordance with this Section 13.11 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

Section 13.12 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder (other than the Indemnified Persons, each of whom is an express third-party beneficiary hereunder to the provisions of Section 8.13).

Section 13.13 Schedules and Exhibits. All Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto or referred to herein are (a) each hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and (b) qualified in their entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement. Any fact or item disclosed in any Section of the Schedules shall be deemed disclosed in each other Section of the applicable Schedule to which such fact or item may apply so long as (x) such other Section is referenced by applicable cross-reference or (y) it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other Section or portion of the Schedule. The headings contained in the Schedules are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Schedules. The Schedules shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any representations, warranties or covenants described herein. Any fact or item, including the specification of any dollar amount, disclosed in the Schedules shall not by reason only of such inclusion (x) be deemed to be material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes hereof, (y) represent a determination that such item or matter did not arise in the Ordinary Course of Business or (z) be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of the Company’s or the Buyer’s representations and warranties, obligations, covenants, conditions or agreements contained herein or in the Agreements, and matters reflected in the Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected herein and may be included solely for information purposes. The inclusion of any item or information in the Schedules shall not be deemed an admission of any fact, circumstance, liability or obligation to any third party. Moreover, in disclosing the information in the Schedules, each of the Buyer, the Company and any Blocker expressly does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein. The information contained in the Schedules shall be kept strictly confidential by the Parties and no third party may rely on any information disclosed or set forth therein.

Section 13.14 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied herein (except in the case of the immediately succeeding sentence) or any document, agreement, or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith, and notwithstanding the fact that any Party may be a partnership or limited liability company, each Party hereto, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, covenants, agrees and acknowledges this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (a) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any

named party to this Agreement and (b) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any of the Parties under this Agreement of or for any claim based on, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 13.15 Equitable Adjustments. If, during the Pre-Closing Period, the outstanding shares of Buyer Capital Stock shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, consolidation or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then any number or amount contained herein which is based upon the number of shares of Buyer Capital Stock will be appropriately adjusted to provide to the Blocker Owners and the Company Equityholders and the Buyer Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated hereby prior to such event.
