3.2 Certain Reports. The Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Investor Parties, other than the D1 Entities, at their request:

(a) to the extent otherwise prepared by the Company, operating and capital expenditure budgets and periodic information packages relating to the operations and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and

(b) to the extent otherwise prepared by the Company, such other reports and information as may be reasonably requested by the Investor Parties; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any privileged information of the Company so long as the Company has used commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an arrangement pursuant to which it may provide such information to the Investor Parties without the loss of any such privilege.

3.3 Confidentiality. Each Investor Party agrees that it will, and will direct its designated representatives to, keep confidential and not disclose any Confidential Information; provided, however, that such Investor Party and its designated representatives may disclose Confidential Information to the other Investor Parties other than the D1 Entities, to the Investor Designees and to (a) its attorneys, accountants, consultants, insurers and other advisors in connection with such Investor Party’s investment in the Company, (b) any Person, including a

ARTICLE IV.

CERTAIN TAX PROTECTIONS

4.1 Tax Protection.

(a) The Company, on its own behalf and in its capacity as the general partner of the OP, and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries (including LLH) shall use, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (including the OP and LLH) to use, commercially reasonable efforts to (i) structure any Exit Transaction in a manner that is tax-deferred to the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, does not cause such parties to recognize gain for federal income tax purposes, and provides for substantially similar tax protections after the Exit Transaction as contained in this Article IV (herein, a “Tax Deferred Structure”), and (ii) cause the OP or its Subsidiaries to continuously maintain sufficient levels of indebtedness that are allocable for federal income tax purposes to the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties to prevent such parties from recognizing taxable income or gain as a result of any “negative tax capital account” or insufficient debt allocation to such parties; provided that such amount of indebtedness shall not be required to exceed the amount of indebtedness allocable to the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties (in the aggregate) immediately following the contribution of the net proceeds of and the transactions related to the IPO (the “Debt Maintenance Obligation”); provided, however, that the Debt Maintenance Obligation shall not be deemed to have been violated to the extent that such obligation is not satisfied as a result of (a) any change in law, rule, or regulation (including any notice, ruling or other guidance of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or any court decision) after the date of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Company will work together in good faith with the Forste Parties and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties to satisfy the Debt Maintenance Obligation to the extent possible under applicable law, or (b) the failure of any guarantee set forth in Section 4.1(c) to be effective (or to the extent such guarantee is ineffective) in allocating indebtedness to the Forste Parties and/or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, as applicable. In addition, if as a result of a condemnations, casualties or foreclosures of any property owned by any member of the Company Group, the Company Group has insufficient indebtedness to satisfy the Debt Maintenance Obligation (taking into account all indebtedness of the Company Group), nothing contained herein shall require the Company Group to incur other indebtedness solely to satisfy the Debt Maintenance Obligation.

(b) Prior to entering into any definitive agreements to consummate an Exit Transaction, the Company shall notify the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties thereof in writing, which notice shall set forth the material terms of such proposed Exit Transaction, and if requested by either the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, or both, the Company, the OP and its Subsidiaries (including LLH) and any counterparty(ies) to such proposed Exit Transaction, on the one hand, and the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, or both, as applicable, on the other hand, shall thereafter and prior to entering into any such definitive agreements, negotiate in good faith for a Tax Deferred Structure for such proposed Exit Transaction that is reasonably acceptable to each of the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties; provided, however, that to the extent the Exit Transaction involves the taxable sale of all of the Company’s assets, the Company shall not be required to accept the terms of a Tax Deferred Structure proposed by the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties in such Exit Transaction with respect to their stock in the Company (but not their interests in the OP or its Subsidiaries) to the extent the terms of the proposed Tax Deferred Structure would have a material adverse impact on the economics that the Company’s stockholders (other than the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties) would receive absent such Tax Deferred Structure. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the parties are unable come to a resolution after forty-five (45) days of good faith negotiation (the “Negotiation Period”) following the provision of written notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.1(b), the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties shall defer to the Company’s recommended Tax Deferred Structure for any such proposed Exit Transaction, and none of the Company, the OP or its Subsidiaries (including LLH) shall have any further liability under Section 4.1(c)(i); provided, however, that if the terms of such proposed Exit Transaction are changed, modified or supplemented in any material respect that affects the tax structure or tax treatment of the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties following the provision of written notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.1(b), the Company shall notify the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties thereof in writing, which notice shall set forth the material terms of such change, modification or supplement and the Negotiation Period shall be extended by an additional thirty (30) days from the date of such notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) to the extent the Company otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section 4.1(a) and 4.1(b), (ii) the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, as applicable, are offered a Tax Deferred Structure in an Exit Transaction, and (iii) the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, as the case may be, do not elect to participate in such offered Tax Deferred Structure, the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations in Section 4.1(a)(i) and this Section 4.1(b) with respect to the applicable parties that did not elect to participate in such offered Tax Deferred Structure.

(c) In connection with the Debt Maintenance Obligation, to the extent the Company or the OP believes that under applicable federal income tax rules an insufficient amount of indebtedness may be allocated to the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties to avoid the recognition of income or gain absent a guarantee of such indebtedness by such party, the Company shall, and shall cause the OP and its Subsidiaries to, provide (i) written notice thereof, which notice shall be provided not less than forty-five (45) days of the date that the Company or the OP believes that the amount of such indebtedness shall become insufficient, and (ii) each of the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties with the opportunity to execute a guaranty of one or more indebtedness of the OP or its Subsidiaries within such forty-five (45) day period in the form (based on the good faith advice of counsel to the Forste Parties and/or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties (as applicable) and the relevant U.S. federal income tax law, including applicable Treasury Regulations) and in an amount reasonably necessary to cause each of the Forste Parties and the

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, as applicable, to be allocated indebtedness under applicable U.S. federal income tax law at least equal to the Debt Maintenance Obligation. Any indebtedness offered for guarantee must be indebtedness with respect to which the lender permits a guaranty, must be secured by real property or other assets owned directly or indirectly by the OP and must be otherwise reasonably acceptable to each of the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and the OP (including their Subsidiaries) will be deemed to have satisfied the Debt Maintenance Obligation with respect to the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties to the extent that they comply with this Section 4.1(c), notwithstanding that the Forste Parties or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties, as applicable, elect to not enter into the guarantees described herein.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the rights granted to the Forste Parties and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties under this Article IV shall survive (i) with respect to the Forste Parties until such time as (A) the Forste Parties have disposed of (to Persons other than other Forste Parties) more than sixty percent (60%) of their aggregate direct and indirect equity interests in the Company and its Subsidiaries held as of the date hereof (calculated now and in the future assuming all profits interests are settled in the number of shares, units or other equity interests of the applicable entity the Forste Parties would be entitled to upon a liquidation of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the applicable date of determination at the then current fair market value of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of such date), or (B) the Forste Parties obtain a fair market value adjusted tax basis in their direct and indirect equity interests in the Company and its Subsidiaries as a result of the death of ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and (ii) with respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties until such time as (A) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties have disposed of (to Persons other than other ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties) more than sixty percent (60%) of their aggregate direct and indirect equity interests in the Company and its Subsidiaries held as of the date hereof (calculated now and in the future assuming all profits interests are settled in the number of shares, units or other equity interests of the applicable entity the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties would be entitled to upon a liquidation of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the applicable date of determination at the then current fair market value of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of such date), or (B) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Parties obtain a fair market value adjusted tax basis in their direct and indirect equity interests in the Company and its Subsidiaries as a result of the death of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

ARTICLE V.

6.3 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified only by a written instrument executed by the Company and the other parties hereto. Neither the failure nor delay on the part of any party hereto to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.

6.4 Further Assurances. The parties hereto will sign such further documents, cause such meetings to be held, resolutions passed, exercise their votes and do and perform and cause to be done such further acts and things necessary, proper or advisable in order to give full effect to this Agreement and every provision hereof. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall not directly or indirectly take any action that is intended to, or would reasonably be expected to result in, any Investor Party being deprived of the rights contemplated by this Agreement.

6.5 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned without the express prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any attempted assignment, without such consents, will be null and void; provided, however, that, without the prior written consent of any other party hereto, an Investor Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any Affiliate, so long as such Affiliate, if not already a party to this Agreement, executes and delivers to the Company a joinder to this Agreement evidencing its agreement to be become a party to and to be bound by this Agreement as an Investor Party hereunder, whereupon such Affiliate shall be deemed an “Investor Party” hereunder. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

6.6 Third Parties. Except as provided for in Article II, Article III, Article IV, Article V and Article VI with respect to any Investor Party and its Affiliates and their respective successors and permitted assigns, this Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any person that is not a party hereto nor create or establish any third-party beneficiary hereto.

6.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

6.8 Disputes.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, any and all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any dispute regarding its arbitrability, validity or termination, or the performance or breach thereof, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration in Baltimore, Maryland administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”), unless otherwise specifically modified by the terms of this Agreement. Any party to this Agreement may initiate arbitration by notice (a “Request for Arbitration”) to any other party (each party, an “Arbitration Party”). The place of the arbitration shall be Baltimore, Maryland. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator jointly chosen by the Arbitration Parties. To the extent that the Arbitration Parties fail to agree to an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Request for Arbitration, the arbitrator shall be chosen using Rule 15 of the JAMS Rules. Any individual will be qualified to serve as an arbitrator if he or she shall be an individual who (i) has no personal relationship with any of the parties to this Agreement, (ii) has no direct business relationship with any of the parties to this Agreement, (iii) has no material indirect business relationship with any of the parties to this Agreement and (iv) who has at least twenty (20) years of experience in the practice of law with significant experience in each of corporate law, securities law, capital markets and corporate finance matters.

(b) The arbitrator will apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of Maryland without reference to its internal conflicts of laws principles, and will be without power to apply any different substantive law. The arbitrator will render an award and a written opinion in support thereof. Such award shall include the costs related to the arbitration and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing party. The arbitrator also has the authority to grant provisional remedies, including injunctive relief, and to award specific performance. The arbitrator may entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party, applying the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and may rule upon any claim or counterclaim, or any portion thereof (a “Claim”), without holding an evidentiary hearing, if, after affording the parties an opportunity to present written submission and documentary evidence, the arbitrator concludes that there is no material issue of fact and that the Claim may be determined as a matter of law. The parties waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any rights to appeal, or to review of, any arbitrator’s award by any court. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction, including the courts of Maryland. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party to this Agreement may seek injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction without first pursuing resolution of the dispute as provided above. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of Maryland and of the United States sitting in Maryland in connection with any such proceeding and any proceeding to enforce, confirm, or vacate any arbitration award, and waives any objection based on forum non conveniens. In any such judicial proceeding, the parties agree

that in addition to any method for the service of process permitted or required by such courts, to the fullest extent permitted by law, service of process may be made by delivery provided pursuant to the directions in Section 6.2. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH PARTY’S RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE AN ARBITRATOR’S DECISION OR AWARD PURSUANT TO SECTION 6.8(a) OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(c) The Arbitration Parties agree to maintain confidentiality as to all aspects of the arbitration, except as may be required by applicable law, regulations or court order, or to maintain or satisfy any suitability requirements for any license by any state, federal or other regulatory authority or body, including professional societies and organizations; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent a party from disclosing information regarding the arbitration for purposes of enforcing or vacating the award. In any court filings to enforce, confirm, or vacate the award, however, the Arbitration Party seeking to use any confidential information from the arbitration shall take all necessary steps to file or lodge such material under seal and provide the other Arbitration Party an opportunity to seal any such information. The Arbitration Parties further agree to obtain the arbitrator’s agreement to preserve the confidentiality of the arbitration.

6.9 Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach of this Agreement by any of them, the other parties hereto would be irreparably harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. Each party accordingly agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and agrees that the parties, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to specific performance of this Agreement without the posting of bond.

6.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the charter and bylaws of the Company, sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no agreements, representations, warranties, covenants or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof or thereof other than those expressly set forth herein and therein. This Agreement supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

6.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or circumstance or in any jurisdiction, shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, (i) the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, and each other provision hereof shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law, (ii) as to such Person or circumstance or in such jurisdiction such provision shall be reformed to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and (iii) the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances or in other jurisdictions shall not be affected thereby.

6.12 Table of Contents, Headings and Captions. The table of contents, headings, subheadings and captions contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only, and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of any provision hereof.

6.13 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereto may be signed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one Agreement (or amendment, as applicable).

6.14 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the Closing Date.

6.15 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or cause of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the subject matter hereof may only be made against the parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any party hereto or any past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or representative of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party.

6.16 Tax Gross Up. Any damages, costs or expenses payable by the Company Group pursuant to this Agreement, other than with respect to Article IV, shall not include any U.S. federal, state, local or other income or other taxes paid or payable by the recipient of amounts paid or payable by the Company Group to such recipient pursuant to this Agreement
