SECTION 2.1 Formation.

The rights, powers, duties, obligations and liabilities of the Members shall be determined pursuant to the Act and this Agreement. To the extent that the rights, powers, duties, obligations and liabilities of any Member are different by reason of any provision of this Agreement than they would be in the absence of such provision, this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by the Act, control.

SECTION 2.2 Name. The name of the Company is “Vantiv Holding, LLC,” and all Company business shall be conducted in that name or in such other names that comply with applicable Law as the Managing Member may select from time to time.

SECTION 2.3 Term. The term of the Company commenced on the Filing Date and shall continue in existence perpetually until termination or dissolution in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.2.

SECTION 2.4 Purpose; Powers.

(a) General Powers. The nature of the business or purposes to be conducted or promoted by the Company is to continue the Business and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the direction of the board of directors of the Managing Member (consistent with the Vantiv Certificate) and the Exchange Agreement, to engage in any act or activity which may be lawfully conducted by a limited liability company under the Act and the Laws of any other jurisdictions in which the Company engages in such activities. The Company may engage in any

and all activities necessary, desirable or incidental to the accomplishment of the foregoing, subject to the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as authorizing the Company to possess any purpose or power, or to do any act or thing, forbidden by Law to a limited liability company organized under the Laws of the State of Delaware. All matters material to the affairs and business of the Company shall be determined by the board of directors of the Managing Member.

(b) Certain Regulatory Restrictions.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company and the Members acknowledge that FTB and its Affiliates are subject to regulatory oversight by bank regulatory authorities in various jurisdictions (including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and other Government Entities, including the State of Ohio’s Division of Financial Institutions) with jurisdiction over FTB or its Affiliates and that FTB or its Affiliates may be required to obtain regulatory approvals from, or provide notice to, such authorities, prior to, or provide notice to such authorities following, the engagement by the Company or Vantiv (by virtue or its holding company status or otherwise) or any Subsidiary in certain activities or consummation of certain investments (“Regulatory Approval”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Vantiv, the Company nor any Subsidiary shall engage in any business that may reasonably require FTB or an Affiliate of FTB to seek Regulatory Approval, whether under the Bank Holding Company Act, Ohio Law or other applicable Law (a “New Activity”), whether by acquisition, investment or organic growth, without first sending written notice to FTB (the “New Activity Notice”) and FTB having notified the Managing Member that the New Activity is permissible, and, if dependent upon Regulatory Approval, that such Regulatory Approval has been obtained. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the New Activity Notice, FTB must notify the Managing Member in writing (i) whether, based on the advice of legal counsel, such New Activity would be permissible for FTB and/or its Affiliates to make or engage in directly under all applicable banking Laws and (ii) that either (A) no Regulatory Approval with respect to FTB and/or its Affiliates is required for such New Activity, or (B) any required Regulatory Approval with respect to such New Activity has been or will within a reasonable amount of time be obtained by FTB and/or its Affiliates. FTB shall subsequently notify the Managing Member whether any required Regulatory Approval referenced in clause (B) above has been obtained. None of Vantiv, the Company nor any Subsidiary shall engage in such New Activity if FTB notifies it that such activity is impermissible or until required Regulatory Approvals are obtained; it being understood that a Regulatory Approval shall not be deemed obtained until the expiration of any applicable waiting periods or the receipt of any necessary approval, as applicable.; provided, that if (1) such New Activity relates to an acquisition (whether by contribution or otherwise) of assets or securities or investment in any other Person by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in one or a series of related acquisitions, for a value exceeding $175,000,000, and (2) the effect of obtaining such Regulatory Approval would materially adversely affect FTB with respect to its regulatory capital or permissible banking activities, or would impose material burdensome regulatory conditions on FTB with respect to its regulatory capital, then such New Activity shall be deemed not to be permissible unless the Company or its subsidiaries (i) use their reasonable best efforts to

make accommodations to relieve FTB from the additional material burden of such conditions and (ii) if such material burden is not removed despite such reasonable best efforts, reimburse FTB for the impact or the cost of complying with such conditions, including if applicable, as set forth in the succeeding proviso; provided, further, however, that FTB recognizes that the Company may seek to establish a “financial subsidiary” (as defined under Federal Reserve Regulation H) to engage (and only to engage) in acquisitions of foreign companies and, with appropriate regulatory authority, such establishment and acquisitions shall be permissible so long as either (1) such acquisition or investment has a value of less than $175,000,000 or (2) (a) the Federal Reserve does not impose any conditions upon FTB that are materially more burdensome than the precedent set forth in the applicable regulations with respect to the establishment of such a subsidiary or any acquisition thereby and (b) FTB and the Company act in good faith to determine any incremental cost of capital charge for the benefit of FTB appropriate for any net capital deduction by FTB resulting from any acquisition by such subsidiary and reimburse FTB for such incremental cost, it being understood that any expected increase in the value of FTB’s holdings of the Company’s shares may offset all or part of such charge (but in no event will result in any payment by FTB to the Company).

(ii) Vantiv and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable, as promptly as possible, to assist FTB or its Affiliates in obtaining any Regulatory Approval necessary for FTB or its Affiliates to qualify or continue its ownership interest in Vantiv and the Company as a permissible investment, including by (i) making appropriate filings and submissions to any Government Entity required by Law applicable to Vantiv, the Company or the Subsidiaries or FTB or its Affiliates and (ii) providing any information to FTB as may be reasonably requested by FTB or its Affiliates in connection therewith and (iii) executing and delivering additional documents necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in connection therewith. FTB shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any Regulatory Approval as promptly as possible; provided that FTB will exercise reasonable best efforts to minimize disclosure of any confidential or proprietary information relating to the Company and to seek confidential treatment for any such information, in each case, to the maximum extent allowed under applicable Law.

(iii) The obligations of Vantiv, the Company and the Members set forth in this Section 2.4(b) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect in the event that FTB and its Affiliates are no longer deemed to control Vantiv or the Company under applicable banking Laws, as the Company (acting through its Managing Member) and FTB mutually determine in good faith, in consultation with regulators or otherwise (such matter, at the option of FTB, being conclusively demonstrated by a non-control determination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or any other applicable banking regulator).

(c) Company Action. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, including the limitations set forth in Section 2.4(a), except as prohibited by applicable Law, (i) the Company may, with the approval of the Managing Member, enter into and perform any and all documents, agreements and instruments contemplated by such approval, all without any further

act, vote or approval of any other Member and (ii) the Managing Member may authorize any Person (including any other Member or Officer) to enter into and perform any document on behalf of the Company.

SECTION 2.5 Foreign Qualification. Prior to the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s conducting business in any jurisdiction other than Delaware, the Managing Member shall cause the Company or such Subsidiary to comply, to the extent procedures are available and those matters are reasonably within the control of the Officers, with all requirements necessary to qualify the Company or any Subsidiary as a foreign limited liability company conducting business in that jurisdiction.

SECTION 2.6 Registered Office; Registered Agent; Principal Office; Other Offices. The registered office of the Company required by the Act to be maintained in the State of Delaware shall be the office of the initial registered agent named in the Certificate or such other office (which need not be a place of business of the Company) as the Managing Member may designate from time to time in the manner provided by Law. The registered agent of the Company in the State of Delaware shall be the initial registered agent named in the Certificate or such other Person or Persons as the Managing Member may designate from time to time in the manner provided by Law. The principal office of the Company shall be at such place as the Managing Member may designate from time to time, which need not be in the State of Delaware, and the Company shall maintain records at such place. The Company may have such other offices as the Managing Member may designate from time to time.

SECTION 2.7 No State-Law Partnership. The Members intend that the Company shall not be a partnership (including a limited partnership) or joint venture, and that no Member or Officer shall be a partner or joint venturer of any other Member or Officer by virtue of this Agreement, for any purposes other than as set forth in the last sentence of this Section 2.7, and this Agreement shall not be construed to the contrary. The Members intend that the Company shall be treated as a partnership for federal, state or local income tax purposes, and each Member and the Company shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment.

SECTION 4.4 Management Matters. The Managing Member shall take all action which may be necessary or appropriate (i) for the continuation of the Company’s valid existence as a limited liability company under the Laws of the State of Delaware (and of each other jurisdiction in which such existence is necessary to enable the Company to conduct the business in which it is engaged) and (ii) for the maintenance, preservation and operation of the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Exchange Agreement and applicable Laws and regulations.

SECTION 4.5 Liability of Members.

(a) No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law or as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Member shall have any personal liability whatsoever in such Person’s capacity as a Member, whether to the Company, to any of the other Members, to the creditors of the Company or any Subsidiary or to any other third party, for the debts, liabilities, commitments or any other obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary or for any losses of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided that nothing contained in this Section 4.5(a) is intended to release or limit a Member’s liability for a breach by a Member, including a Managing Member, of its obligations hereunder.

(c) Return of Distributions. In accordance with the Act and the Laws of the State of Delaware, a member of a limited liability company may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such member. It is the intent of the Members that no distribution to any Member pursuant to Article V of this Agreement shall be deemed a return of money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act. The payment of any such money or distribution of any such property to a Member shall be deemed to be a compromise within the meaning of the Act, and the Member receiving any such money or property shall not be required to return to any Person any such money or property, except to the extent such Member has breached this Agreement. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Member is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Member and not of any other Member.

SECTION 4.6 Exculpation; Indemnification by the Company.

(a) Exculpation. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, no past, present or future officer, director or employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries or the Managing Member, Tax Matters Member, any Member or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing (each, in their capacity as such, a “Covered Person”), shall be liable to the Company or the Subsidiaries or any other Person who is bound by this Agreement for any or all losses, damages, claims, judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Expenses”) actually incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company or the Subsidiaries and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Covered Person in accordance with this Agreement, except to the extent such Expenses are due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or breach of this Agreement by, such Covered Person (each, a “Covered Claim”). The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict, limit or eliminate the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person to the Company or any Subsidiary or the Members otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such

other duties and liabilities at law or in equity of such Covered Person, and each Member to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, hereby waives any right to make any claim, bring any action or seek any recovery based on such other duties or liabilities for breach thereof.

(b) Indemnification. Subject to the limitations and conditions provided in this Section 4.6, each Covered Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or arbitrative, with respect to a Covered Claim (a “Proceeding”), or any appeal in such a Proceeding or any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding (a “Covered Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he, she or it, or a Person of which he, she or it is or was a Covered Person shall be indemnified by the Company or to the extent applicable a Subsidiary to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than such Law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against all Expenses actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Covered Proceeding, and indemnification under this Section 4.6 shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such Covered Person to indemnity under this Agreement. The indemnification provided in this Section 4.6 is recoverable only out of the assets of the Company and/or the Subsidiaries, and no Member, director or Officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary has any personal liability, or obligation to make a capital contribution, on account thereof.

(c) Reliance. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and the Subsidiaries and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company or the Subsidiaries by any person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, Net Profits or Net Losses of the Company and the Subsidiaries, or the value and amount of assets or reserves or contracts, agreements or other undertakings that would be sufficient to pay claims and obligations of the Company and the Subsidiaries or to make reasonable provision to pay such claims and obligations, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to the Members or creditors of the Company and the Subsidiaries might properly be paid.

(d) Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of a Covered Person in connection with a Covered Proceeding (ignoring for purposes of this clause (d) the exception contained therein relating to gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement) within twenty (20) days after receipt by the Company from such Covered Person of a statement requesting such advances from to time; provided such statement provides reasonable documentary evidence of such expenses and provides a written undertaking by the Covered Person to repay any and all advanced expenses in the event such Covered Person is ultimately determined not to be entitled hereunder to indemnification by the Company.

(e) Indemnification Agreements and D&O Insurance. The Company may enter into agreements with the Managing Member or any Officer to provide for indemnification

consistent with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.6. The Company and the Subsidiaries will purchase and maintain officer liability insurance at appropriate levels of coverage as determined by the Managing Member and will maintain for a period of six years after the date hereof appropriate director liability insurance for past periods.

(f) Nature of Rights. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 4.6 shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights with respect to actions taken or Covered Proceedings arising prior to any amendment, modification or repeal.

(g) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the Members and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Covered Persons have relied on this Section 4.6 and are express third-party beneficiaries of Section 4.6 with the express right and ability to enforce the Company’s obligations under Section 4.6 directly against the Company to the full extent of such obligations. The Company and each Member shall not in any way hinder, compromise or delay the rights and ability of the Covered Persons to enforce any of the Company’s obligations under this Section 4.6 directly against the Company to the full extent of such obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) this Section 4.6 may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived in any manner, and (b) the other provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived in any manner that adversely affects any Covered Person’s rights to enforce any of the Company’s obligations under this Section 4.6 directly against the Company without the prior written consent of each of the Members, which consent may be withheld, conditioned or delayed for any reason in their sole discretion.

(h) Survival. This Section 4.6 shall survive any termination or restatement of this Agreement. It is expressly acknowledged that the indemnification provided in this Section 4.6 could involve indemnification for negligence or under theories of strict liability.

SECTION 4.7 Renunciation of Corporate Opportunities. The Company (on behalf of itself and each of the Subsidiaries), FTB and each of the other Members hereby acknowledge and agree that:

(a) The Advent Stockholders and each of their respective Affiliates (other than Vantiv and its Subsidiaries or their employees and other than any Person that is an Affiliate of such Advent Stockholder solely by virtue of such Member’s relationship with the Company), associated investment funds and portfolio companies (other than the Company) (each, an “Advent Group Member,” and collectively, the “Advent Group”) are in the business of making investments in, and have investments in, other Persons (“Other Investments”), including other businesses similar to, and that may compete with, the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ businesses and, in connection with such Other Investments, may have interests in, participate with, aid, advise, and/or maintain seats on the board of directors (or comparable governing bodies) of, such Other Investments.

(b) In recognition that each Advent Group Member may have myriad duties to various investors and partners, and in anticipation that the Company and the Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Advent Group Member (whether through its Other Investments or

(c) Each Advent Group Member shall have the right (whether through its Other Investments or otherwise), independent of such Advent Group Member’s investment in the Company or role as a Member or otherwise: (i) to engage or invest, directly or indirectly, in any business (including any business activities, relationships or lines of business that are the same as or similar to those pursued by, or competitive with, the Company and the Subsidiaries, including any competitor); (ii) to do business, directly or indirectly, with any customer or supplier of the Company and the Subsidiaries; (iii) to take any other action that such Advent Group Member believes in good faith is necessary to or appropriate to fulfill its obligations as described in Section 4.7(b); (iv) develop opportunities for such Advent Group Member or such Other Investments or encounter business opportunities that the Company and the Subsidiaries may desire to pursue; (v) not to present potential transactions, matters or business opportunities to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries; (vi) to pursue, directly or indirectly, any opportunity for itself; and (vii) to direct any opportunity to another Person, except in any case, to the extent any such action (w) would breach any other provision of this Agreement, the Vantiv Certificate or the Certificate, (x) would, or would be reasonably likely to, result in (as determined by the Company’s outside legal counsel, provided such legal counsel is of national reputation and specializes in the legal matters involved in such determination) a violation of applicable Law or (y) would, or would be reasonably likely to, result in the imposition of material and adverse obligations, limitations or conditions on Vantiv, the Company and/or the Subsidiaries.

(d) Each Advent Group Member shall have no duty (contractual or otherwise) to communicate or present any corporate opportunities to the Company or any of its Affiliates and the Company (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates and Members) hereby renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company, any Affiliate and any Member in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any and all business opportunities that are made available to such Advent Group Member and any right to require such Advent Group Member to act in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 4.7 to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

(e) No Advent Group Member shall be liable to the Company or any of its Affiliates or Members for breach of any duty (contractual or otherwise) by reason of any activities or omissions of the types referred to in this Section 4.7 or such Advent Group Member’s participation therein, except to the extent such actions or omissions are in breach of this Agreement.

(f) Subject to the non-compete set forth in Section 5.7(c) of the Master Investment Agreement and any agreement between FTB and/or any of its Affiliates and the Company and/or any Subsidiary (including such agreements entered into in connection with the Master Investment Agreement), each of FTB and its Affiliates (other than any Person that is an

Affiliate of FTB solely by virtue of FTB’s relationship with the Company) (each, an “FTB Group Member”) shall have the right, independent of such FTB Group Member’s investment in the Company or role as a Member or otherwise: (i) to engage or invest, directly or indirectly, in any business (including any business activities, relationships or lines of business that are the same as or similar to those pursued by, or competitive with, the Company and the Subsidiaries, including any competitor); (ii) to do business, directly or indirectly, with any customer or supplier of the Company and the Subsidiaries; (iii) to take any other action that such FTB Group Member believes in good faith is necessary to or appropriate to fulfill its obligations and duties to its investors; (iv) to develop opportunities for such FTB Group Member or encounter business opportunities that the Company and the Subsidiaries may desire to pursue; (v) not to present potential transactions, matters or business opportunities to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries; (vi) to pursue, directly or indirectly, any opportunity for itself; and (vii) to direct any opportunity to another Person, except in any case, to the extent any such action (w) would breach any other provision of this Agreement, the Vantiv Certificate or the Certificate or (x) would, or would be reasonably likely to, result in (as determined by the Company’s outside legal counsel, provided such legal counsel is of national reputation and specializes in the legal matters involved in such determination) a violation of applicable Law or (y) would, or would be reasonably likely to, result in the imposition of material and adverse obligations, limitations or conditions on Vantiv, the Company and/or the Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE V - CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; ALLOCATIONS; DISTRIBUTIONS

SECTION 5.1 Capital Account Creation. There shall be established for each Member on the books of the Company a Capital Account, which shall be increased or decreased in the manner set forth in this Agreement.

SECTION 5.2 Capital Account Negative Balance. A Member shall not have any obligation to the Company or to any other Member to restore any negative balance in the Capital

Account of such Member. The Company shall not request any additional capital contribution from FTB or its Affiliates or their transferees in its or their capacity as a Member.

SECTION 5.3 Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss.

(a) Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. The rules set forth below in this Sections 5.3(b) and 5.3(c) shall apply for the purpose of determining each Member’s allocable share of the items of income, gain, loss and expense of the Company comprising Net Income or Net Loss of the Company for each fiscal year (or as of the end of such other period or periods as circumstances otherwise require or allow), determining special allocations of other items of income, gain, loss and expense, and adjusting the balance of each Member’s Capital Account to reflect the aforementioned general and special allocations. For each fiscal year, the Regulatory Allocations in Section 5.3(c) shall be made immediately prior to the general allocations of Section 5.3(b).

(b) General Allocations.

(i) Hypothetical Liquidation. The items of income, gain, loss and expense of the Company comprising Net Income or Net Loss for a fiscal year shall be allocated among the Persons who were Members during such fiscal year in a manner that will, as nearly as possible, cause the Capital Account balance of each Member at the end of such fiscal year to equal the excess (which may be negative) of:

(A) the amount of the hypothetical distribution (if any) that such Member would receive if, on the last day of the fiscal year, (x) all Company assets, including cash, were sold for cash in an amount equal to their Gross Asset Values, taking into account any adjustments thereto for such fiscal year, (y) all Company liabilities were satisfied in cash according to their terms (limited, with respect to each Nonrecourse Liability or Member Nonrecourse Debt in respect of such Member, to the Gross Asset Values of the assets securing such liability), and (z) the net proceeds thereof (after satisfaction of such liabilities) were distributed in full pursuant to Section 6.2(c)(ii), over

(B) the sum of (x) the amount, if any, without duplication, that such Member would be obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company, (y) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-2(g) and (z) such Member’s share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain determined pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704 2(i)(5), all computed as of the hypothetical sale described in Section 5.3(b)(i)(A) above.

For purposes of the foregoing hypothetical sale described in Section 5.3(b)(i)(A), all assets and liabilities of any entity that is wholly-owned by the Company and disregarded as an entity separate from the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be treated as assets and liabilities of the Company.

(ii) Loss Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.3(b), the amount of items of Company expense and loss allocated pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) to any Member shall not exceed the maximum amount of such items that can be so allocated without causing such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any fiscal year, unless each Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. All such items in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.3(b)(ii) shall be allocated first, to Members who would not have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, pro rata, in proportion to their Capital Account balances, adjusted as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of the definition of Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, until no Member would be entitled to any further allocation, and thereafter, to all Members, pro rata, in proportion to their ownership of Units.

(A) In the event that there is a net decrease during a fiscal year in either Company Minimum Gain or Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, each Member shall receive such special allocations of items of Company income and gain as are required in order to conform to Regulations Section 1.704-2. It is intended that this Section 5.3(c)(i)(A) qualify and be construed as a “minimum gain chargeback” and a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of such Regulations, which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations and this Section 5.3(c)(i)(A).

(B) If any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as quickly as possible. It is intended that this Section 5.3(c)(i)(B) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations and this Section 5.3(c)(i)(B).

(C) In the event that a Member has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of income and gain of the Company for such fiscal year in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, however, that any allocation under this Section 5.3(c)(i)(C) shall be made only if and to the extent that a Member would have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of such sum after all allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.3(c)(i)(C) were not in this Agreement.

(D) Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Members pro rata in accordance with their Units. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Member(s) that bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).

(E) To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company assets pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of its Units, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their interests in the Company in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Members to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(F) The allocations set forth in Sections 5.3(c)(i)(A), (B), (C) (D) and (E) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3(b), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

(G) If any Member (I) is required to make an indemnity payment to the Company pursuant to Article VII of the Master Investment Agreement or (II) pays any amount which gives rise to an item of in the nature of expense or loss of the Company, the loss giving rise to the indemnity payment or the item attributable to the payment shall be allocated to such Member.

(ii) For any fiscal year during which a Member’s interest in the Company is assigned by such Member, the portion of the Net Income and Net Loss of the Company that is allocable in respect of such Member’s interest shall be apportioned between the assignor and the assignee of such Member’s interest using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder, as determined by the Managing Member.

(d) Required Tax Allocations.

(i) Section 704(b) Allocations.

(A) Each item of income, gain, loss, or deduction for federal income tax purposes that corresponds to an item of income, gain, loss or expense that is either taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss or is specially allocated pursuant to Section 5.3(c) (a “Book Item”) shall be allocated among the Members in the same proportion as the corresponding Book Item is allocated among them pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or Section 5.3(c) of this Agreement; provided, however, that such tax allocations shall be made, and, for purposes of such tax allocation, all references to fiscal years shall be construed, in accordance with the requirements of Section 706 of the Code.

(B) (I) If the Company recognizes Depreciation Recapture (as defined below) in respect of the sale of any Company asset,

(a) the portion of the gain on such sale which is allocated to a Member pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or Section 5.3(c) shall be treated as consisting of a portion of the Company’s Depreciation Recapture on the sale and a portion of the Company’s remaining gain on such sale under principles consistent with Regulations Section 1.1245-1; and

(b) if, for federal income tax purposes, the Company recognizes both “unrecaptured Section 1250 gain” (as defined in Section 1(h) of the Code) and gain treated as ordinary income under Section 1250(a) of the Code in respect of such sale, the amount treated as Depreciation Recapture under Section 5.3(d)(i)(B)(I)(a) shall be comprised of a proportionate share of both such types of gain.

(II) For purposes of this Section 5.3(d)(i)(B)(II) “Depreciation Recapture” means the portion of any gain from the disposition of an asset of the Company which, for federal income tax purposes (a) is treated as ordinary income under Section 1245 of the Code; (b) is treated as ordinary income under Section 1250 of the Code; or (c) is “unrecaptured Section 1250 gain” as such term is defined in Section 1(h) of the Code.

(ii) Section 704(c) Allocations. In the event any property of the Company is credited to the Capital Account of a Member at a value other than its tax basis (whether as a result of a contribution of such property or a revaluation of such property pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value”), then allocations of taxable income, gain, loss and deductions with respect to such property shall be made in accordance with the “traditional” allocation method described in Regulation § 1.704-3(b).

(iii) Tax Items Allocable to Particular Members. If the Company is required to recognize items of income, gain, deduction or loss for tax purposes that is attributable to a particular Member, such items shall be allocated to such Member.

(iv) Credits. All tax credits shall be allocated among the Members as determined by the Managing Member in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv) and consistent with applicable Law.

The tax allocations made pursuant to this Section 5.3(d) shall be solely for tax purposes and shall not affect any Member’s Capital Account or share of non-tax allocations or distributions under this Agreement.

(e) Withholding. Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay over any taxes payable by the Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of the participation by such Member (or any Assignee of, or Successor in Interest to, such Member) in the Company. If and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold any taxes, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a distribution from the Company as of the time such withholding is required to be paid, including for purposes of Section 5.4(a), Section 5.4(c) or Section 6.2. To the extent that the aggregate of such deemed distributions to a Member for any period exceeds the distributions to which such Member is entitled for such period, the amount of such excess shall be considered a demand loan from the Company to such Member, with interest at an interest rate of 5% compounded annually, which interest shall be treated as an item of Company income until discharged by such Member by repayment. The Company may, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, elect to satisfy such demand loan out of distributions to which such Member would otherwise be subsequently entitled. The withholdings referred to in this Section 5.3(e) shall be made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under applicable tax Law unless the Managing Member receives documentation, satisfactory to the Managing Member, to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable.

(f) Other Tax Matters.

(i) In the event that the Code or any Regulations require allocations of items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit different from those set forth in this Section 5.3, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to make new allocations, in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv), in reliance on the Code and such Regulations, provided that if any such new allocation shall be proposed to be made in a manner that disproportionately adversely impacts any Member, such Member shall have the right to consent to such allocation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No such new allocation shall give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Member.

(ii) All decisions and other matters concerning the computation and allocation of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credits among the Members, and accounting procedures not specifically and expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Managing Member in accordance with Section

4.2(c)(xiv). Any determination made pursuant to this Section 5.3(f)(ii) by the Managing Member shall be conclusive and binding on all Members.

(g) Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of determining each Member’s share of excess nonrecourse liabilities, if any, of the Company in accordance with Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members’ interests in Company profits shall be in proportion to their Units.

(h) Material Tax Returns and Tax Elections. The following review and deadlock resolution procedure shall apply to any approval submission or determination governed by Section 4.2(c)(xiv). The Managing Member shall provide draft copies of any material tax returns or material tax elections to the holders of Class B Units at least 30 days before the filing deadline and shall provide the holders of Class B Units with any information requested by such holders of Class B Units to review such tax returns or tax elections. The holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) will notify the Managing Member within 15 days of receipt of such draft tax return or tax election of their approval or disapproval of the draft tax return or tax election. If the holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) do not consent to the making of any such tax election, then the election shall not be made. If the holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) do not agree on any tax position in a material tax return or a material tax election where an election must be made, then, at the Company’s expense, any Big Four accounting firm mutually agreed by the Managing Member and the holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) shall determine (i) in the case of a tax position in a material tax return or a tax determination, whether the tax position or determination proposed by the Managing Member or the tax position or determination proposed by the holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) is more likely to prevail or, if such positions are equally likely to prevail, whether the tax position or determination proposed by the Managing Member or the tax position or determination proposed by the holders of Class B Units (acting by a majority of such holders) is more neutral to the Members, and (ii) in the case of a tax election, whether electing or refraining from electing the tax election proposed by the Managing Member is more neutral to the Members, and in each case such determination shall be binding.

SECTION 5.4 Distributions. Subject to any restrictions in any indebtedness of the Company or the Subsidiaries or in the Exchange Agreement, the Managing Member shall cause the Company to distribute to the Members, pro rata according to the number of Units held by such Member, cash distributions equal to the amount necessary to satisfy the “Quarterly Estimated Tax Liability with respect to the Company’s Income” (the “Quarterly Distributions”).

(a) Amount of Distribution. The “Quarterly Estimated Tax Liability with respect to the Company’s Income” shall mean the quarterly estimated tax liability calculated using the annualized income installment method of Code §6655(e)(2)(A) (installment calculations based on income annualized on a 3/3/6/9/ method, with a true-up of annual estimated taxes by March 15th of the following year based on income from a full fiscal year, and with any excess distributions previously made to the Members to be applied against the next distribution owed under this Section 5.4(a)) assuming that (i) the Company has a single Member, (ii) the items of income, gain, deduction, loss and credit (all as determined for federal income tax purposes and in accordance with Code Section 704(b), but without regard to any Code Section

704(c) gains or adjustments pursuant to any Code Section 754 election) in respect of the Company were the only such items entering into the computation of tax liability of such Member for the fiscal year in respect of which the Quarterly Distribution was made, and (iii) the taxable income of the Member determined in accordance with clause (ii) was subject to tax at the highest marginal effective rate of federal, state and local income tax applicable to a corporation resident and doing all of its business in New York City, taking account of any difference in rates applicable to particular items of income, and any allowable deductions in respect of such state and local taxes in computing such Member’s liability for federal income taxes. No account shall be taken of any items of deduction or credit attributable to an interest in the Company that may be carried back or carried forward from any other taxable year. The amount of hypothetical tax liability determined under clause (iii) in excess of Quarterly Distributions made previously with respect to such taxable year shall be distributed to the Members pro rata according to the number of Units held by each Member.

(b) Time for Making Quarterly Distributions. Quarterly Distributions shall be made on or before three (3) days before the end of the quarter to which the Quarterly Distribution relates (i.e., no later than April 12, June 12, September 12 and December 12), with an additional Distribution made if necessary, on or before March 1 each year to true-up estimated taxes based on the actual twelve (12) months of income for the preceding fiscal year.

(c) Other Distributions. Subject to the Exchange Agreement and Section 4.2(c), the Managing Member may cause the Company to make distributions other than the Quarterly Distributions at any time, in cash or in kind, to the extent that such distributions are permissible under the Act or indebtedness of the Company or the Subsidiaries (such distributions, together with the Quarterly Distributions, “Distributions”). All Distributions shall be made pro rata to each Member according to the number of Units held by each Member, except as otherwise required by the Exchange Agreement or permitted pursuant to Section 4.2(c). For the avoidance of doubt, the Managing Member shall cause the Company to make such payments as are required to be made by the Exchange Agreement and the Advancement Agreement. All payments under the Advancement Agreement pursuant to any Tax Receivable Agreement (other than the Tax Receivable Agreement relating to net operating losses and certain other tax attributes of NPC) that are not covered by the Quarterly Distributions shall be made by pro rata Distributions, and such payments shall not require any consent under Section 4.2(c). All payments under the Advancement Agreement that are not related to a Tax Receivable Agreement shall be considered contractual payments and not Distributions.

(d) Successors. For purposes of determining the amount of Distributions under this Section 5.4, each Member shall be treated as having received amounts received by its predecessors in respect of any of such Member’s Units.

ARTICLE VI - WITHDRAWAL; DISSOLUTION; TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS; ADMISSION OF NEW MEMBERS

SECTION 6.1 Member Withdrawal. No Member shall have the power or right to withdraw, otherwise resign, or require the repayment of its Capital Contribution (if any) or the redemption of its Units, prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company, except pursuant to a Transfer of Units permitted under this Agreement as provided in Section 6.3, pursuant to

Section 6.4(b), or pursuant to a Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Member shall not have the power or right to withdraw or otherwise resign without the consent of the holder of Class B Units (by a majority of holders, such majority to include FTB).

SECTION 6.2 Dissolution.

(a) Events. For so long as the Exchange Agreement is in effect the Company shall not be dissolved. Following such time, the Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following:

(i) the termination of the legal existence or the membership in the Company of the last remaining Member (unless within ninety (90) days, (x) such Member’s personal representative or nominee agrees in writing to continue the Company and to be admitted as a Member, or (y) a Member is otherwise admitted in accordance with this Agreement, in each case, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such Member);

(ii) any event that makes it unlawful for all or substantially all of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries to continue; and

(iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act, provided, however, that no Member or its Affiliates or agents shall apply for entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act at any time that the Exchange Agreement is in effect.

Except as provided in Section 6.2(a), the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company shall not cause a dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Actions Upon Dissolution. When the Company is dissolved, the business and property of the Company and the Subsidiaries shall be wound up and liquidated by the Managing Member or, in the event of the unavailability of the Managing Member, such other Member or other liquidating trustee as shall be named by the Managing Member. In such event, the Managing Member (or such other Member or liquidating trustee, as applicable) shall have the full right and discretion to manage such process, including the power to prosecute and defend suits, collect debts, dispose of property, settle and close the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, discharge the liabilities of the Company and the Subsidiaries, pay reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the winding up, distribute remaining assets to Members in accordance with this Agreement and execute and file a certificate of cancellation under the Act.

(c) Priority. Within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the effective date of dissolution of the Company, whether by expiration of its full term or otherwise, the assets of the Company shall be distributed in the following manner and order:

(i) first, to the satisfaction (whether by payment or the reasonable provision for payment) of the liabilities of the Company to creditors, in the order of

priority established by the instruments creating or governing such obligations and to the extent otherwise permitted by Law, including to the establishment of reserves which the Managing Member or other liquidating trustee as may be selected considers necessary for the reasonable provision for payment for (A) any known contingent, conditional or unmatured contractual claims against the Company, (B) any claim against the Company that is the subject of a pending action, suit or proceeding to which the Company is a party and (C) any claim that is not known to the Company or has not arising but that, based on the facts known to the Company, are likely to arise or to become known to the Company within ten (10) years after the date of dissolution, which reserves shall be held by the Managing Member (or other liquidating trustee if applicable) for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment in respect of any of the aforementioned claims. At the expiration of such period as the Managing Member (or other liquidating trustee, if applicable) shall deem advisable, any balance of any such reserves not required to discharge such liabilities or obligations shall be distributed as provided in Section 6.2(c)(ii); and

(ii) second, to the Members pro rata according to the number of Units held by each Member as of the effective date of such dissolution.

(d) No Recourse. Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for all distributions with respect to the Company and shall have no recourse therefor, upon dissolution or otherwise, against any Member or the Managing Member, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Act, the Exchange Agreement or in this Agreement, including in the event of the breach of this Agreement by the Managing Member. No Member shall have any right to demand or receive property other than cash upon dissolution of the Company; provided that, for the sake of clarity, the Managing Member shall have the right to cause the Company to make distributions of property other than cash upon dissolution of the Company.

(e) Cancellation of Certificate. On completion of the distribution of the Company assets as provided in this Agreement, the Company shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company, and the Company shall at such time be terminated.

SECTION 6.3 Transfer by Members.

(a) No Member may Transfer any Units (or any part of its Membership Interest), except as provided in this Section 6.3. FTB and its Affiliates may Transfer any Class B Units so long as such Transfer is either (i) made in compliance with Sections 6.3(c) and (d) or (ii) required under the Exchange Agreement. No Member may Transfer any part of a Membership Interest that is not an Economic Interest other than pursuant to a Transfer of a Unit. No Member may Transfer any Class A Units (or any part of its Membership Interest) or Economic Interest in the Class A Units other than to Vantiv pursuant to the Exchange Agreement. Vantiv is the only permitted holder of Class A Units. All Transfers required by the Exchange Agreement shall be permitted Transfers hereunder. No rights set forth in Section 4.2(c) shall Transfer with the Class B Units, nor may FTB otherwise assign its rights set forth in Section 4.2(c).

(b) Any Member who Transfers any Units in accordance with this Section 6.3 shall cease to be a Member with respect to such Units and shall no longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Units; provided that no Member shall cease to be a Member upon the collateral assignment of, or the pledging or granting of a security interest in, its Units until the foreclosure of such pledge or security interest.

(c) Except with respect to Transfers of Units required pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, any Person who acquires any Units in accordance with this Section 6.3 that is not an existing Member of the Company shall agree in writing to assume the responsibility of the transferring Member. In the event that such Person fails to do so entirely or fails to do so in a timely manner, such Person shall be deemed by its acceptance of the benefits of the acquisition of such Units to have agreed to be subject to, and bound by, all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement to which the predecessor in such Units was subject, and by which such predecessor was bound, and for all purposes shall be deemed to be a Member.

(d) Except with respect to Transfers of Units required pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, no Transfer shall be given effect unless the transferee delivers to the Company the representations set forth in Exhibit B, and no Member may Transfer any of such Member’s Units (including any Economic Interest therein) unless (A) the Managing Member determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such Transfer or attempted Transfer would not cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Code Section 7704; it being understood that such determination shall be made promptly and in good faith or (B) the transferring Member delivers an opinion of counsel with a determination that such Transfer or attempted Transfer would not cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Code Section 7704 (provided such legal counsel is of national reputation and specializes in such matters of determination);

(e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, except as required by the Exchange Agreement, no Transfer of Units may be made except in compliance with all federal, state and other applicable Laws, including federal and state securities Laws.

(f) Any attempted Transfer of Units by any Member not in accordance with this Section 6.3 shall be ineffective, null and void ab initio.

SECTION 6.4 Admission or Substitution of New Members.

(a) Admission. The Managing Member shall have the right, subject to the provisions of Section 6.3, to admit as a new Member, any Person who acquires Units from a Member or from the Company, respectively; it being understood that no approval of the Managing Member shall be required to admit a Person as a new Member if such Person acquires Units from a transferring Member in compliance with all of the provisions of this Agreement. Concurrently with the admission of a new Member, the Managing Member shall forthwith cause any necessary papers to be filed and recorded and notice to be given wherever and to the extent required showing the substitution of a transferee as a Member in place of the transferring Member, or the admission of an new Member, all at the expense, including payment of any professional and filing fees incurred, of the new Member.

(b) Admission upon Exercise of Warrant. Upon the valid exercise of the Warrant in accordance with its terms by a holder thereof which is not FTB or an Affiliate of FTB and the issuance by the Company of Class C Non-Voting Units to such holder, such holder shall be deemed admitted to the Company as a Member until such Class C Non-Voting Units are exchanged pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement.

(c) Conditions. Subject to Section 6.3(c), the admission of any Person as a new Member shall be conditioned upon such Person’s written acceptance and adoption of all the terms and provisions of this Agreement, by execution and delivery of a counterpart signature page to this Agreement.

(d) Assignees. Any Assignee that does not become admitted as a Member shall have no rights (other than those rights pertaining solely to such Assignee’s Economic Interest), but all of the obligations (other than those pertaining to voting), of a Member under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.1 Books of Account. Appropriate books of account shall be kept by the Company and the Subsidiaries, in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“GAAP”), at the principal place of business of the Company, and each Member shall have access to all books, records and accounts of the Company and the Subsidiaries and the right to make copies thereof for any purpose reasonably related to the Member’s interest as a member of the Company, in each case, under such conditions and restrictions as the Managing Member may reasonably prescribe.

The Company shall not elect, pursuant to Section 761(a) of the Code, to be excluded from the provisions of subchapter K of the Code. If requested by the Managing Member, each Member agrees to provide the Company with such assistance as would be required (including signing any election forms) to cause any new direct or indirect Subsidiaries acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or organized by the Company or any Subsidiary to elect to be treated as a partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes, such election to be effective on or before the date such new Subsidiary is acquired or organized.

(2) Elections by the Company. Except as provided in Section 7.4(a)(1), relating to the tax classification of the Company, and Section 7.4(a)(5) relating to Section 754 elections, the Managing Member may make, but shall not be obligated to make, any tax election provided under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax Law in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv). All decisions and other matters concerning the computation and allocation of items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit among the Members, and accounting procedures not specifically and expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement, shall be determined by the Managing Member in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv) . Any determination made pursuant to this Section 7.4(a)(2) by the Managing Member shall be conclusive and binding on all Members.

(3) Elections by Members. Without the consent of the Managing Member, no Member shall make the election provided by Section 732(d) of the Code, relating to the basis of property distributed by a Company to certain Members. In the event any Member makes any tax election that requires the Company to furnish information to such Member to enable such Member to compute its own tax liability, or

requires the Company to file any tax return or report with any tax authority, or adjust the basis of Company property, in any case that would not be required in the absence of such election made by such Member, the Managing Member may, as a condition to furnishing such information, or filing such return or report, or making such basis adjustment, require such member to pay to the Company any incremental expenses incurred in connection therewith.

(4) Member Obligations. Promptly upon request, each Member shall provide the Managing Member with any information related to such Member necessary to allow the Company to comply with any tax reporting, tax withholding or tax payment obligations of the Company.

(5) Section 754 Elections. The Members recognize and agree that a valid election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code has been made and is in full effect in respect of the Company, and that no Member shall take any action to affect the effectiveness or validity of such election. In addition:

(I) the Managing Member shall make, in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv), such adjustments to the definition of Gross Asset Value and Net Income and Net Loss, and to the Regulatory Allocations required by Section 5.3(c) as are necessary to carry out the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) and 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4); and

(II) a Member who acquires any Units shall furnish to the Managing Member such information as the Managing Member shall reasonably require to enable it to compute the adjustments required by Section 755 of the Code and the Regulations thereunder.

(b) Preparation of Returns. The Managing Member shall cause to be prepared all federal, state and local tax returns of the Company for each year for which such returns are required to be filed and shall cause such returns to be timely filed. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall determine in accordance with Section 4.2(c)(xiv) the appropriate treatment of each item of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company and the accounting methods and conventions under the tax Laws of the United States, the several states and other relevant jurisdictions as to the treatment of any such item or any other method or procedure related to the preparation of such tax returns.

(1) Designation and Powers. The Managing Member is hereby designated as the tax matters partner within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (“Tax Matters Member”). The Tax Matters Member shall have all of the rights, authority and power, and shall be subject to all of the obligations, of a tax matters partner to the extent provided in the Code and the Regulations. The Tax Matters Member shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to cause each other eligible Member to become a “notice partner” within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(8). To the extent and in the manner provided by applicable Code sections and Regulations thereunder, the

Tax Matters Member (i) shall furnish the name, address, profits interest and taxpayer identification number of each Member to the IRS and (ii) shall keep the Members informed of all administrative and judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Company items required to be taken into account by a Member for income tax purposes. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Tax Matters Member, in its capacity as such, shall not, without the prior approval of the Members holding a majority of the Class B Units (provided that for so long as FTB and its Affiliates collectively hold twenty percent (20%) or more of the Class B Units, FTB’s (and only FTB’s) prior approval is required), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (i) extend the statute of limitations for the assessment of any Tax, (ii) file a petition for judicial review of a “final partnership administrative adjustment” within the meaning of Section 6226(a) of the Code, (iii) file a tax claim, on behalf of the Company, in any court, (iv) submit any request for administrative adjustment on behalf of the Company, or (v) bind the Members to any tax settlement. The Tax Matters Member shall notify the other Members within twenty (20) Business Days after it receives notice from the IRS (or any state and local tax authority), of any administrative proceeding with respect to an examination of, or proposed adjustment to, any Company tax items.

(2) State and Local Tax Law. If any state or local tax Law provides for a tax matters partner or person having similar rights, powers, authority or obligations, the Tax Matters Member shall also serve in such capacity. In all other cases, the Tax Matters Member shall represent the Company in all tax matters to the extent allowed by Law.

(3) Expenses of the Tax Matters Member. All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Member in its capacity as such shall be borne by the Company as an ordinary expense of its business. Such expenses shall include fees of attorneys and other tax professionals, accountants, appraisers and experts, filing fees and reasonable out-of-pocket costs.

(4) Inconsistent Return Positions. No Member shall file a notice with the IRS under Section 6222(b) of the Code in connection with such Member’s intention to treat an item on such Member’s federal income tax return in a manner that is inconsistent with the treatment of such item on the Company’s federal income tax return, unless such Member has, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the filing of such notice, provided the Managing Member with a copy of the notice and thereafter in a timely manner provides such other information related thereto as the Managing Member shall reasonably request.

(5) Election into TEFRA. In the event that the Company is not subject to the consolidated audit rules of Sections 6221 through 6234 of the Code during any fiscal year, each Person who was a Member at any time during such fiscal year hereby agrees to sign an election pursuant to Section 6231(a)(1)(B)(ii) of the Code and Regulations Section 301.6231(a)(1) 1(b)(2) to be filed with the Company’s federal income tax return for such fiscal year to have such consolidated audit rules apply to the Company.

Each party agrees that it shall bring any action, suit, demand or proceeding (including counterclaims) in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, exclusively in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or any Delaware State court, in each case, sitting in the City of Wilmington, Delaware (the “Chosen Courts”), and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action, suit, demand or proceeding in the Chosen Courts, (iii) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party and (iv) agrees that service of process upon such party in any such action, suit, demand or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 8.6. Each party irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any action, suit, demand or proceeding (including counterclaims) arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 8.3 Successors and Assigns; No Third-Person Beneficiaries. This Agreement is binding upon the parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any

Person other than the parties to this Agreement and each of their respective permitted successors and assigns and other than (i) the Covered Persons with respect to Section 4.6 and (ii) the Advent Group Members and the FTB Group Members with respect to Section 4.7.

SECTION 8.4 Confidentiality. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the confidential information of the Company and the Subsidiaries. By executing this Agreement, for the period during which a Member is a party to this Agreement and for three (3) years thereafter, each Member expressly agrees to maintain the confidentiality of, and not to disclose to any Person other than the Company or any Subsidiary, another Member or any of their respective financial advisors, accountants, attorneys or other advisors, without the consent of Managing Member but subject to the first sentence of this Section 8.4, any information relating to the business, financial structure, financial position or financial results, customers, suppliers or affairs of the Company and the Subsidiaries, except (i) as otherwise required by Law or by any Government Entity or Self-Regulatory Organization having jurisdiction over such Members; provided that the disclosing Member will exercise reasonable best efforts to minimize disclosure of such information that is confidential or proprietary and to seek confidential treatment for any such information to the maximum extent permissible, (ii) the delivery by a Member of financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries to its direct or indirect partners, stockholders or members, provided that such parties are bound by appropriate confidentiality provisions, including in their ability to use such information, (iii) the disclosure of any information that was or becomes available to such Member on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or its representatives, financial advisors, accountants, attorneys or other advisors provided such other source is not known by such Member, after reasonable inquiry, to be bound by a confidentiality obligation with respect to such information, or (iv) the disclosure of any information that was or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of a breach by such Member of this Agreement). This provision shall survive any termination of this Agreement either generally or in regard to any Member. Each Member agrees that monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for a breach of this Section 8.4, and that, in addition to any other remedies, each Member shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to restrain any such breach, whether threatened or actual, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy.

SECTION 8.5 Amendments. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the Members unless such amendment is approved in accordance with Section 4.2(b). This Agreement and any provision hereof may only be waived by a writing signed by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

SECTION 8.6 Notices. Whenever notice is required or permitted by this Agreement to be given, such notice shall be in writing and shall be given to any Member at its address, telecopy number or email address shown in the Company’s books and records, or, if given to the Company, at the addresses listed on Schedule I or such other address as may be designated from time to time. Each proper notice shall be effective upon any of the following: (i) personal delivery to the recipient, (ii) when telecopied or emailed to the recipient if the telecopy is promptly confirmed by automated or telephone confirmation thereof or if the email is promptly

confirmed by email or telephone confirmation thereof, or (iii) one (1) Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid).

SECTION 8.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by means of telecopied signature pages), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

SECTION 8.8 Non-Circumvention. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the provisions of the Exchange Agreement, and nothing in this Agreement shall abridge or alter any rights provided for in the Exchange Agreement. The Company agrees not take any action (or omit to take any action) that is prohibited by, or inconsistent with, the Exchange Agreement.

SECTION 8.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement, and the Exchange Agreement, embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained in this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, other than the Exchange Agreement.

SECTION 8.10 Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges that the remedies at law of the other parties for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, any party to this Agreement, without posting any bond or furnishing other security, and in addition to all other remedies that may be available, shall be entitled to seek equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available and no party shall oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that money damages would be sufficient.

SECTION 8.11 Calculation of Damages. In any action, suit, demand or proceeding (including counterclaims) in respect of any claim arising out of or related to a breach of Sections 4.1(c) of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, in the determination of any liability for damages by the Company in favor of any Member, the Company and the Members agree that the amount of any such damages shall be grossed up to reflect such Member’s ownership interest in the Company such that such Member’s damages equal (x) the amount of such damages, divided by (y)(i) one (1), minus (ii) the percentage that such Member’s Units (as of the date of such damages are incurred) represents of the Units then outstanding (expressed as a decimal).

EXHIBIT B

TRANSFEREE TAX REPRESENTATIONS

The transferee is, and will at all times continue to be, the sole beneficial owner of the interest to be registered in its name (which shall be interpreted to mean that the transferee is not and will not be treated as a nominee for, or agent of, another party or as anything other than the real owner of such interest for federal income tax purposes, at any time);

Such transferee is not a trust, estate, partnership or “S corporation” for federal income tax purposes;

Such transferee did not purchase, and will not sell, its interest through (a) a national, foreign, regional, local or other Securities exchange, (b) PORTAL or (c) over the counter market (including an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations by identified brokers or dealers by electronic means or otherwise);

Such transferee did not purchase, and will not sell, its interest from, to or through (a) a person, such as a broker or dealer, that makes a market in, or regularly quotes prices for, such interests or (b) a person that regularly makes available to the public (including customers or subscribers) bid or offer quotes with respect to the Interest and stands ready to effect, buy or sell transactions at the quoted prices for itself or on behalf of others; and

Such transferee will only sell its interest to a buyer who provides the representations similar to these.

The representations set forth above are intended to ensure that the Company will not be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes as a result of any transfer. The Managing Member may waive any or all of the representations set forth above on the advice of counsel that the transfer of an interest to such transferee will not cause the Company to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, and shall endeavor in good faith to do so if so advised by counsel to the Company upon request for waiver by a Member proposing to transfer, or upon receipt of an opinion from legal counsel to the transferee (provided such legal counsel is of national reputation and specializes in the legal matters involved in such determination) that such transfer will not cause the Company to be treated as a publicly traded partnership within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code. These representations may from time to time be revised by the Managing Member on the advice of counsel to the extent necessary to ensure that a transfer will not cause the Company to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.
