All such Electing Units that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Subsequent Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate or certificates which

(i) At the Initial Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each vested portion of a Time-Based Phantom Unit that is outstanding and has not yet settled (including any underlying accumulated but not yet settled Distribution Equivalent Rights as of the Initial Effective Time) shall be converted into a number of shares of Kick Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (A) the number of Partnership Common Units subject to such vested Time-Based Phantom Unit immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time (which, for purposes of clarity, shall include any additional Partnership Common Units that would have been paid out with respect to accumulated but not yet settled Distribution Equivalent Rights pursuant to the applicable award agreement governing such Time-Based Phantom Unit) multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio. In the event that the conversion of accumulated but not yet settled Distribution Equivalent Rights into a number of shares of Kick Common Stock for purposes of this Section 2.2(a) results in a partial share of Kick Common Stock, the value of such partial share of Kick Common Stock (determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share of Kick Common Stock that such person would otherwise be entitled to receive (taking into account all Time-Based Phantom Units held by such person at the Initial Effective Time and rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) by (ii) the volume weighted average closing price of one share of Kick Common Stock on the NYSE for the five trading days ending at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the last trading day immediately prior to the date on which the Initial Effective Time shall occur, as such price is reported under the heading “U.S. Equities” by Bloomberg Financial Markets or such other source as Kick and the Partnership shall agree in writing) shall be paid out in cash (without interest) as soon as practicable following the Initial Effective Time, but in no event later than thirty days following the Initial Effective Time.

(ii) At the Initial Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each unvested portion of a Time-Based Phantom Unit that is outstanding (including any underlying accumulated but not yet settled Distribution Equivalent Rights as of the Initial Effective Time) shall be assumed by Kick and converted into a Time-Based Kick RSU in respect of that number of shares of Kick Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (A) the number of Partnership Common Units subject to such unvested Time-Based Phantom Unit immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

(iii) After the Initial Effective Time, each such Time-Based Kick RSU described in Section 2.2(a)(ii) above shall be scheduled to vest, subject to the holder’s continued service with any Surviving Entity or its Subsidiaries, on the same schedule as applied to the corresponding Time-Based Phantom Unit immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time. Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.2(a), each such Time-Based Kick RSU shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including as to settlement terms and distribution equivalent rights) as applied to the corresponding Time-Based Phantom Unit immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time, except as to terms rendered inoperative by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Kick Board may determine in good faith are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the converted Time-Based Kick RSU. Any accumulated but not yet settled Distribution Equivalent Rights associated with the Time-Based Phantom Units as of the Initial Effective Time will also carry over and will be paid by and in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such Time-Based Phantom Unit award immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time.

(b) Prior to the Initial Effective Time, the Partnership shall take all action necessary to provide for the treatment of the Time-Based Phantom Units as set forth in this Section 2.2. The Partnership shall ensure that, as of the Initial Effective Time, no participant in any employee or director unit option, unit purchase or equity compensation plan, arrangement or agreement of the Partnership shall have any rights thereunder to acquire, or other rights in respect of, the capital stock of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other equity interest therein (including “phantom” equity or equity appreciation rights). As of no later than immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time, the Partnership shall take all action necessary to terminate the Partnership Equity Plans, effective as of the Initial Effective Time.

Section 2.3 Election Procedures.

(a) Not less than 30 days prior to the anticipated Initial Effective Time or on such other date as Kick and the Partnership mutually agree (the “Mailing Date”), which shall be the mailing date of the Consent Statement/Prospectus to the extent practicable, the Exchange Agent shall mail an election form and other appropriate and customary transmittal materials, in such form mutually acceptable to Kick and the Partnership (the “Election Form”), to each Eligible Unitholder, as of a record date that is mutually agreed to by Kick and the Partnership, which shall be the record date used for the Consent Statement/Prospectus to the extent practicable.

(b) Each Election Form shall include a request to deliver all documentation, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and Kick, necessary (i) to determine whether or not such holder (A) is an Accredited Investor and (B) has the Required Negative Tax Capital and (ii) to be admitted as a member of OpCo (the “Required Documentation”). If a holder of Partnership Common Units delivers an Election Form (including the Required Documentation) prior to the Election Deadline, and Kick and the Partnership mutually determine, in good faith, that such unitholder satisfies all of the conditions specified in this Section 2.3(b) and/or the Election Form, then such unitholders shall be entitled to make an election in accordance with Section 2.3(c) (such holders eligible to make such election, the “Eligible Unitholders”).

(c) Each Election Form shall permit each Eligible Unitholder (or the beneficial owner through customary documentation and instructions) to specify whether such holder elects to receive in respect of such holder’s Partnership Common Units either (i) the Initial LP Merger Consideration or (ii) the Subsequent LP Merger Consideration. A holder of Partnership Common Units shall deliver an Election Form to the Exchange Agent in accordance with the instructions included in the Election Form during the period (the “Election Period”) from the Mailing Date to such date and time as mutually agreed by Kick and the Partnership and included in the Election Form (the “Election Deadline”); provided, that in the absence of such agreement, the Election Deadline shall be five (5) Business Days prior to Initial Effective Time. For purposes of this Agreement, each Eligible Unitholder that properly makes an election (and does not revoke such election) to receive Subsequent LP Merger Consideration shall be an “Electing Unitholder”, and, for the avoidance of doubt, each Eligible Unitholder that does not do so, and each holder of record of Partnership Common Units that is not an Eligible Unitholder, shall not be an Electing Unitholder.

(d) Any election shall have been properly made by an Eligible Unitholder only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form prior to the Election Deadline. After an election has been properly made with respect to any Partnership Common Units, any subsequent transfer of such Partnership Common Units shall automatically revoke such election. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the person submitting it, by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Deadline. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Partnership and Kick shall have discretion to determine whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Partnership and Kick regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive. None of Kick, the Partnership or the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any person of any defect in an Election Form.

Section 2.4 Exchange and Payment.

(a) Immediately after the Initial Effective Time, Kick shall (i) deposit (or cause to be deposited) with a bank or trust company designated as exchange agent by Kick and reasonably acceptable to the Partnership (the “Exchange Agent”), in trust for the benefit of holders of Partnership Common Units, Spartan with respect to the Partnership GP Interest and GP Membership Interests outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time (other than holders of Cancelled Units) book-entry shares representing shares of (A) Kick Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) and (B) Kick Series A Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i) and Section 2.1(c)(i) and (ii) cause to be issued the OpCo Stapled Units issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i) and Section 2.1(c)(i) (subject to Section 2.4(i)). In addition, Kick shall make available by depositing with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Initial Effective Time, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i), in each case without interest. All certificates representing shares of Kick Common Stock or Kick Series A Preferred Stock, dividends, distributions and other cash deposited with the Exchange Agent are hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Initial Effective Time, Kick shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of certificate(s) (“Certificates”) that represented outstanding Partnership Common Units and uncertificated Partnership Common Units represented by book entry (“Book-Entry Units”), each as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time, that were converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) or Section 2.1(c)(i), as applicable, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i), (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates held by such Person shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which letter shall be in customary form and contain such other provisions as Kick or the Exchange Agent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4(m)) or Book-Entry Units in exchange for the applicable Merger Consideration, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i).

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Initial Effective Time and upon surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4(m)), to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents (including with respect of Book-Entry Units) as the Exchange Agent may reasonably require, the holder of Partnership Common Units shall be entitled to receive in exchange for the Partnership Common Units formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Units (subject to any applicable withholding Tax) (i) that number of whole shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Stapled Units (in each case, after taking into account all Partnership Common Units then held by such holder under all Certificates and Book-Entry Units so surrendered) to which such holder of Partnership Common Units shall have become entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) or Section 2.1(c)(i), as applicable (in each case, which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form; provided that the OpCo Units shall be held on the books of OpCo pursuant to the OpCo LLC Agreement), (ii) any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and (iii) any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i), and the Certificate or Book-Entry Units so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled, as applicable. No interest will be paid or accrued on any unpaid dividends or cash in lieu of fractional shares or units, if any, payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Units. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.4, each Certificate or Book-Entry Unit shall be deemed after the Initial Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i).

(d) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Initial Effective Time and upon the Subsequent Effective Time, Spartan shall be entitled to receive (i) the Partnership GP Interest Merger Consideration (which shall be in book-entry form in the case of the Kick Series A Preferred Stock, or be held on the books of OpCo in the case of the OpCo Units), and (ii) any cash in lieu of fractional OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i). No interest will be paid or accrued on any unpaid dividends or cash in lieu of fractional OpCo Units, if any, payable to Spartan. Kick shall use reasonable best efforts to cause Spartan to receive OpCo Stapled Units concurrent with the receipt of Kick Common Stock by the holders of the Non-Electing Units.

(e) If delivery of Initial LP Merger Consideration or the Subsequent LP Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Unit is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that (i) such Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer or (ii) such Book-Entry Unit shall be properly transferred, and the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the delivery of such Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Unit or shall have established to the satisfaction of Kick that such Tax is not applicable.

(f) No dividends with respect to Kick Common Stock or distributions with respect to the OpCo Units with a record date after the Initial Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Partnership Common Units with respect to the shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units that the holder thereof has the right to receive in accordance herewith, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.4(i), in each case until the holder thereof shall surrender such

Certificate(s) (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4(m)) or Book-Entry Units or the Partnership GP Interests in accordance with this Article II. Following the surrender of any such Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.4(m)) or Book-Entry Units or the Partnership GP Interest in accordance with this Article II, there shall be paid to the holder of record thereof, without interest, (i) promptly after such surrender, the amount of any dividends or distributions, as applicable, with a record date after the Initial Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Stapled Units, as applicable, and the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.4(i) and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or distributions, as applicable, with a record date after the Initial Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units, as applicable.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) The Merger Consideration, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i) issued and paid upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Units or the Partnership GP Interest in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Partnership Common Units formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Units or the Partnership GP Interest previously held by the General Partner. At the Initial Effective Time, the unit transfer books of the Partnership shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of the Partnership Common Units that were outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time. If, after the Initial Effective Time, Certificates are presented to Kick or the Exchange Agent for transfer or transfer is sought for Book-Entry Units, such Certificates or Book-Entry Units shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Kick Common Stock, OpCo Units or Kick Series A Preferred Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Units or the Partnership GP Interest, no dividends or distributions with respect to the Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share or unit, and such fractional share or unit interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of Kick or a unitholder of OpCo. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share or unit, Kick shall pay to each former holder of record of Partnership Common Units, or Spartan with respect to the Partnership GP Interest, who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units that such holder or Spartan, as applicable, would otherwise be entitled to receive (taking into account all Partnership Common Units held by such holder at the Initial Effective Time and rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.1(b)(i) and Section 2.1(c)(i) by (ii) the volume weighted average closing price of one share of Kick Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) for the five trading days ending at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the last trading day immediately prior to the date on which the Initial Effective Time shall occur, as such price is reported under the heading “U.S. Equities” by

Bloomberg Financial Markets or such other source as Kick and the Partnership shall agree in writing (the “Fractional Payment”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent any former holder of Partnership Common Units or Spartan with respect to the Partnership GP Interest would be entitled to receive a fractional share of Kick Series A Preferred Stock (taking into account all Partnership Common Units held by such holder at the Initial Effective Time), the amount of shares of Kick Series A Preferred Stock such former holder of Partnership Common Units or Spartan with respect to the Partnership GP Interest would otherwise have been entitled to receive in the aggregate shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number so that such former holder will receive an equal number of shares of Kick Series A Preferred Stock and OpCo Units, and any former holder of Partnership Common Units or Spartan with respect to the Partnership GP Interest who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of Kick Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any additional consideration in respect of such fractional share of Kick Series A Preferred Stock.

(j) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Units or Spartan, as applicable, 12 months after the Initial Effective Time shall be delivered to Kick, upon demand, and any remaining holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Units or Spartan, as applicable, shall thereafter look only to Kick (or OpCo), as general creditors thereof, for payment of the Merger Consideration, any unpaid dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i) (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar laws), without interest.

(k) None of Kick, OpCo, the Surviving Entities, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person in respect of Merger Consideration, dividends or distributions with respect thereto or cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificates or Book-Entry Units shall not have been exchanged prior to two years after the Initial Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the related Merger Consideration (and all dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Kick Common Stock or distributions with respect to OpCo Stapled Units and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units pursuant to this Article II), would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any such Merger Consideration (and such dividends or distributions and cash), in respect thereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Surviving Entities, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(l) The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by Kick on a daily basis. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Kick.

(m) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Kick, of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Kick or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as Kick or the Exchange Agent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Initial LP Surviving Entity with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof, any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.4(f) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Kick Common Stock or OpCo Units payable pursuant to Section 2.4(i).

Section 2.5 Withholding Rights. Each of Kick, OpCo, Frontier I, the Merger Subs, the Surviving Entities and their Affiliates and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Partnership Common Units, Time-Based Phantom Units or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as Kick, OpCo, Frontier I, the Merger Subs, any Surviving Entity and its Affiliates or the Exchange Agent are required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of applicable Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by Kick, OpCo, Frontier I, the Merger Subs, any Surviving Entity and its Affiliates or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Kick, any Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent.

Section 2.6 No Dissenters’ Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.2, prior to the termination of the Initial Superior Proposal Period, the Partnership, or the General Partner Board, directly or indirectly through any officer, employee or Representative, may (A) furnish non-public information regarding the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to, and afford access to the business, properties, books or records of the Partnership and any of its Subsidiaries to, any person and (B) engage and participate in discussions and negotiations with any person, in each case in response to an unsolicited, written and bona fide Acquisition Proposal if (x) the General Partner Board, or any committee thereof, prior to taking any such particular action, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that (i) failure to take such action contemplated in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) would be inconsistent with the General Partner Board’s contractual obligation to act in “good faith” as such term is defined in the Partnership LPA, and (ii) such unsolicited, written and bona fide Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to result in a Superior Proposal and (y) (i) such Acquisition Proposal was received after the date of this Agreement but prior to the end of the Initial Superior Proposal Period and did not result from a breach of this Section 5.2(a), (ii) the Partnership provides to Kick the notice required by Section 5.2(c) with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) the Partnership furnishes any non-public information provided to the maker of the Acquisition Proposal only pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, a copy of which shall be promptly provided to Kick (it being agreed that such confidentiality agreement between the Partnership and such person shall permit such person to make any Acquisition Proposal to the General Partner Board), and to the extent such non-public information has not been made available to Kick, the Partnership provides or makes available such non-public information to Kick substantially concurrent with the time that it is provided to such other person (such actions contemplated in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), “Proposal Discussions”); provided, that, if the Partnership receives a written Acquisition Proposal and prior to the end of the Initial Superior Proposal Period the General Partner Board, or any committee thereof, concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that (I) failure to engage in Proposal Discussions would be inconsistent with the General Partner Board’s contractual obligation to act in “good faith” as such term is defined in the Partnership LPA, and (II) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, then the Partnership and the General Partner Board may continue Proposal Discussions with such Person that made such Acquisition Proposal until the end of the Superior Proposal Termination Period. Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall prohibit the Partnership, or the General Partner Board, directly or indirectly through any officer, employee or Representative, from informing any person that the Partnership is party to this Agreement and informing such person of the restrictions that are set forth in this Section 5.2.

(b) Following the execution of this Agreement, each of the Partnership and the General Partner shall, and each of them shall cause their respective Subsidiaries, and the respective directors, officers, and employees of the Partnership, the General Partner and such Subsidiaries to, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the other Representatives of the Partnership, the General Partner and such Subsidiaries to, immediately cease and terminate any discussions existing as of the Execution Date between the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or Representatives and any person (other than Kick, OpCo, Merger Subs or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or Representatives) that relate to any Acquisition Proposal.

(c) The Partnership shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours) notify Kick of the receipt by the Partnership or the General Partner of any Acquisition Proposal (including the material terms thereof and the identity of the Person, or group of Persons, that has provided such Acquisition Proposal) and of any material modification thereto.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(e) and Section 5.2(f), the General Partner Board may not (i) withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to withhold, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify, the Partnership Recommendation in a manner adverse to Kick; (ii) approve, adopt, authorize, resolve or recommend, or propose to approve, adopt, authorize, resolve or recommend, or allow the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar Contract or any tender or exchange offer providing for, with respect to, or in connection with, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) fail to publicly announce, within ten (10) Business Days after a tender offer or exchange offer relating to the securities of the Partnership shall have been commenced, a statement disclosing that the General Partner Board recommends rejection of such tender offer or exchange offer and affirms the Partnership Recommendation (any action described in this Section 5.2(d), a “Change of Recommendation”).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, the General Partner Board may at any time prior to the termination of the Superior Proposal Termination Period, make a Change of Recommendation if (and only if):(i) (A) a written Acquisition Proposal (that did not result from a breach of Section 5.2(a)) is made by a third party after the date hereof, and such Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn and (B) the General Partner Board determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (ii) (A) the Partnership provides Kick four (4) Business Days prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall include the information with respect to such Superior Proposal that is specified in Section 5.2(b), (B) after providing such notice and prior to making such Change of Recommendation or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii), in either case in connection with a Superior Proposal, the Partnership shall negotiate in good faith with Kick during such four (4) Business Day period (to the extent that Kick desires to negotiate) to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement, such that the Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (C) the General Partner Board shall have considered in good faith any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Partnership and by Kick, and following such four (4) Business Day period, shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the Acquisition Proposal would continue to constitute a Superior Proposal if such changes of this Agreement proposed in writing by Kick were to be given effect; provided that, in the event that the Acquisition Proposal is thereafter modified by the party making such Acquisition Proposal, the Partnership shall provide written notice of such modified Acquisition Proposal and shall again comply with this Section 5.2(e), except that the required four (4) Business Day period for notice, negotiation and consideration in clauses (A), (B) and (C) of this Section 5.2(e) shall be shortened to a two (2) Business Day period in each instance. If the Superior Proposal Termination Period would otherwise end during any period for notice, negotiation or consideration required by this Section 5.2(e) the Superior Proposal Termination Period shall automatically be extended and end on the second (2^nd) Business Day following such required period.

(f) Other than in connection with a Superior Proposal (which shall be subject to Section 5.2(e) and shall not be subject to this Section 5.2(f)), nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict the General Partner Board from, prior to receipt of the Burro Written Consent, making a Change of Recommendation in response to an Intervening Event to the extent that (i) the General Partner Board, or any committee thereof, determines in good faith, after consultation with the Partnership’s outside legal counsel, that the failure of the General Partner Board to effect a Change of Recommendation would be inconsistent with the General Partner Board’s contractual obligation to act in “good faith” as such term is defined in the Partnership LPA, and (ii) (A) the Partnership provides Kick four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action, which notice shall specify the reasons therefor, (B) after providing such notice and prior to making such Change of Recommendation, the Partnership shall negotiate in good faith with Kick during such four (4) Business Day period (to the extent that Kick desires to negotiate) to make such revisions to the terms of this Agreement as to obviate the need for the General Partner Board to make a Change of Recommendation pursuant to this Section 5.2(f), and (C) the General Partner Board, or any committee thereof, shall have considered in good faith any changes to the terms of this Agreement offered in writing in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Partnership and by Kick, and following such four (4) Business Day period, shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure to effect a Change of Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the General Partner Board’s contractual obligation to act in “good faith” as such term is defined in the Partnership LPA.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit the Partnership or the General Partner Board from taking and disclosing to its unitholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or from issuing a “stop, look and listen” letter or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise making any disclosures that the General Partner Board determines, in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel is required under applicable Law or regulation; provided that any such disclosure that does not expressly reaffirm the Partnership Recommendation may result in a Change of Recommendation, including a Change of Recommendation that results in a breach of this Section 5.2.

Section 5.3 Preparation of Registration Statement and Consent Statement/Prospectus.

(a) As promptly as practicable following the Execution Date, (i) the Partnership and Kick shall prepare and file with the SEC the Consent Statement/Prospectus to be sent to the holders of Partnership Common Units in connection with the Burro Written Consent and (ii) Kick shall prepare (with the Partnership’s reasonable cooperation) and file with the SEC the Registration Statement, in which the Consent Statement/Prospectus will be included as a prospectus, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of the Kick Common Stock to be issued in the Initial LP Merger. Kick shall also take any action required to be taken under any applicable state or provincial securities laws in connection with the issuance and reservation of Kick Common Stock in the Mergers. Each of the Partnership and Kick shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Initial LP Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby. The Partnership shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Consent Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to the holders of Partnership Common Units as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement or the Consent Statement/Prospectus will be made by Kick or the Partnership, as applicable, without the other’s prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or without providing the other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. Kick or the Partnership, as applicable, will advise the other promptly after it receives oral or written notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any amendment or supplement thereto has been filed, the issuance of any stop order, the suspension of the qualification of the Kick Common Stock issuable in connection with the Initial LP Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or any oral or written request by the SEC for amendment of the Consent Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information, and will promptly provide the others with copies of any written communication from the SEC or any state securities commission and a reasonable opportunity to participate in the

responses thereto. If at any time prior to the Initial Effective Time any information relating to the Burro Parties or the Kick Parties, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by the Partnership or Kick that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Registration Statement or the Consent Statement/Prospectus, so that any of such documents would not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall promptly be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required under applicable Law, disseminated to the holders of Partnership Common Units and the stockholders of Kick; provided, however, that the delivery of such notice and the filing of any such amendment or supplement shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by any party hereunder or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to any Party.

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, the Partnership shall in accordance with its Governing Documents, and applicable Law, (i) take all actions to establish a record date (which will be as soon as reasonably practicable after the date upon which the registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act) for the purpose of determining the holders of Partnership Common Units entitled to deliver written consents, and (ii) distribute to the holders of Partnership Common Units the Consent Statement/Prospectus, which shall include a form of consent that may be executed by holders of Partnership Common Units in connection with the Burro Written Consent. The Partnership, through the General Partner Board shall, subject to the General Partner Board’s right to make a Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.2(e), (A) recommend to the holders of Partnership Common Units that they approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Mergers, (B) include such recommendation in the Consent Statement/Prospectus and (C) publicly reaffirm such recommendation within 24 hours after a request to do so by Kick. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Burro Party agrees that (1) each Burro Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Burro Written Consent pursuant to the Support Agreements and (2) its obligations pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5.2, not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to any Burro Party or any other Person of any Acquisition Proposal.

Section 5.4 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Burro Parties and the Kick Parties shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, afford to each other and their respective Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, during the period prior to the Initial Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, to all their respective properties, assets, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records and, during such period, each of the Burro Parties and the Kick Parties shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other Party: (a) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed or received by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws and (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as may be reasonably requested (including Tax Returns filed and those in preparation and the work papers of its auditors); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require either Party to disclose any information to the extent such disclosure would contravene applicable Law. All such information shall be held confidential in accordance with the

terms of (i) the Confidentiality Agreement, between Kick and the Partnership, dated as of October 19, 2023 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), (ii) the Clean Team Agreement, between the Partnership and Kick, dated as of November 8, 2023 (the “Kick Clean Team Agreement”), and (iii) the Clean Team Agreement between the Partnership and Kick, dated as of November 20, 2023 (the “Burro Clean Team Agreement” and together with the Kick Clean Team Agreement, collectively the “Clean Team Agreements” and each a “Clean Team Agreement”). The obligations of Kick and the Partnership under the Confidentiality Agreement and Clean Team Agreements shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms; provided, however, that nothing in the Confidentiality Agreement or Clean Team Agreements shall be deemed to restrict the performance by the Burro or Kick of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and in the case of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement, on one hand, and the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement or Clean Team Agreements, on the other hand, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

Section 5.5 Reasonable Best Efforts.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 5.5(a), each Party agrees to (i) make an appropriate and complete filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Mergers within ten (10) Business Days of the Execution Date (unless a later date is agreed by the Parties) (the “Regulatory Approvals”), as promptly as practicable; provided, that each Party shall in good faith consult with the other Parties prior to making any filings other than filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and filings set forth on Section 5.5(b) of the Kick Disclosure Letter.

(c) Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to each other Party all necessary information and reasonable assistance as such other Party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. Subject to applicable Law, each Party shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult with the other in connection with, all of the information relating to the other Parties, as the case may be, and any of their respective

Subsidiaries, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party and/or any applicable Governmental Entity in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing rights, each Party shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Subject to applicable Law and the instructions of any applicable Governmental Entity, each Party shall keep each other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of notices or other written communications received by each Party, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, from any applicable Governmental Entity and/or third party with respect to such transactions, and, to the extent practicable under the circumstances, shall provide the other Party and its counsel with the opportunity to participate in any meeting with any applicable Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. With respect to any information shared by the Parties pursuant to this Section 5.5 that is protected from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, joint defense privilege or any other privilege, the Parties shall take reasonable efforts to share such information in a manner so as to preserve the applicable privilege.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) Kick shall make all strategic decisions and lead all discussions, negotiations and other proceedings, and coordinate all activities with respect to any requests that may be made by, or any actions, consents, undertakings, approvals, or waivers that may be sought by or from, any applicable Governmental Entity, in connection with obtaining Regulatory Approvals for the Mergers under the Regulatory Laws, including determining the strategy for contesting, litigating or otherwise responding to objections to, or proceedings challenging, the consummation of the Mergers, in each case subject to good faith consultations with the Partnership reasonably in advance and in consideration of the Partnership’s views (ii) each of Kick and the Burro Parties shall be required to defend through litigation any claim asserted in any court or other governmental body with respect to the Mergers by the FTC, DOJ or any other applicable Governmental Entity, (iii) no Kick Group Entity and none of their respective Affiliates shall be required to offer, negotiate, commit to, effect, enter into or take any action, agreement, condition, commitment or remedy of any kind, including but not limited to any remedy that would require any Kick Group Entity or any of their respective Affiliates to sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of, or otherwise encumber, impair, limit or restrict any Kick Group Entity’s or any of their respective Affiliates’ ownership, control, management or operation of assets or businesses (including for the avoidance of doubt, any equity or other interests) of any Kick Group Entity, any Burro Group Entity or any of their respective Affiliates, and (iv) the Burro Group Entities and their respective Affiliates shall not, without the prior written consent of Kick, offer, negotiate, commit to, effect, enter into or take any action, agreement, condition, commitment or remedy as described in the foregoing clause (iii) of this Section 5.5(d).

Section 5.6 Takeover Laws. The Burro Parties, the General Partner Board, the Kick Parties and the Kick Board shall (a) take no action to cause any Takeover Law to become applicable to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby and (b) if any Takeover Law is or becomes applicable to this Agreement, the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, use reasonable best efforts to take all action necessary to ensure that the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such Takeover Law with respect to this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.7 Notification of Certain Matters. Subject to applicable Law, the Partnership and Kick shall promptly notify each other of (a) any written notice or other written communication received by any Burro Party or Kick Party from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) any other notice or communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (c) any Action commenced or, to such Party’s knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting such Party or any of its Subsidiaries which relate to the transactions contemplated hereby or (d) any change, condition or event (i) that renders or would reasonably be expected to render any representation or warranty of such Party set forth in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (ii) that results or would reasonably be expected to result in any failure of such party to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement (including any condition set forth in Article VI) to be complied with or satisfied hereunder; provided, however, that failure to comply with this Section 5.7 shall not in and of itself result in the failure to be satisfied of any of the conditions to the Closing in Article VI, or give rise to any right to terminate this Agreement under Article VII if the underlying fact, circumstance or event would not in and of itself give rise to such failure or right.

Section 5.8 Indemnification, Exculpation and Insurance.

(a) For purposes of this Section 5.8, (i) “GP D&O Indemnified Person” shall mean any Person who is now, or has been or becomes at any time prior to the Initial Effective Time, an officer or director of the Partnership, the General Partner or any of their respective Subsidiaries and also with respect to any such Person, in their capacity as a director, officer, manager, employee, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, company, foundation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise (whether or not such other entity or enterprise is affiliated with the Partnership) serving at the request of or on behalf of the Partnership, the General Partner or any of their respective Subsidiaries and together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators and (ii) “Proceeding” shall mean any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise and whether or not such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation results in a formal civil or criminal litigation or regulatory action.

(b) From and after the Initial Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Partnership, the General Partner or any applicable Subsidiary thereof would be permitted to indemnify a GP D&O Indemnified Person, the General Partner and Surviving Entities, jointly and severally, shall, and Kick shall cause the General Partner and Surviving Entities to, honor the provisions regarding elimination of liability of directors, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses contained in the respective governing instruments of the General Partner, the Partnership and any Subsidiary of the Partnership or the General Partner as of the Execution Date and ensure that the respective Governing Documents of the General Partner and Surviving Entities, shall, for a period of six years following the Initial Effective Time, contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of

present and former directors, officers and agents of the Partnership, the General Partner and their respective Subsidiaries than are set forth in the comparable governing instruments of the General Partner and the Partnership. Any right of indemnification of a GP D&O Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 5.8(b) shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified at any time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such GP D&O Indemnified Person as provided herein.

(c) Kick shall cause the Surviving Entities to purchase, effective as of the Initial Effective Time, a “tail policy” with respect to acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred prior to the Initial Effective Time that were committed or alleged to have been committed by such GP D&O Indemnified Persons in their capacity as such; provided, however, that the cost of such “tail policy” shall in no event exceed the Maximum Amount. The “Maximum Amount” shall be an amount per year equal to 300% of the most recent annual premiums paid by the Partnership or the General Partner (which amount is set forth on Section 5.8(c) of the Burro Disclosure Letter) for the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies covering acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing Date with respect to the GP D&O Indemnified Persons.

(d) The rights of any GP D&O Indemnified Person under this Section 5.8 shall be in addition to any other rights such GP D&O Indemnified Person may have under the Governing Documents of the Partnership, the General Partner, any Surviving Entity, Kick, the DRULPA or the DLLCA. The provisions of this Section 5.8 shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby for a period of six years and are expressly intended to benefit each of the GP D&O Indemnified Persons and their respective heirs and representatives; provided, however, that in the event that any claim or claims for indemnification or advancement set forth in this Section 5.8 are asserted or made within such six-year period, all rights to indemnification and advancement in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue until disposition of all such claims. If any Surviving Entity, the General Partner or Kick, or any of their respective successors or assigns, (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of their businesses or assets to any other Person, then, in each such case, to the extent necessary, a proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Entities, the General Partner or Kick, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations of the Surviving Entities, the General Partner and Kick set forth in this Section 5.8.

Section 5.9 Other Employee Benefits.

(a) From and after the Initial Effective Time and for a period of not less than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, solely during any period of employment, Kick shall or shall cause the Surviving Entities to provide to each individual who is an employee of any of the Burro Group Entities as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time (each, a “Continuing Employee”) with (i) a base salary, annual cash bonus opportunity and annual long term incentive awards, taken as a whole, that are not less favorable than the base salary, annual cash bonus opportunity and long term incentive award opportunities, in each case, as provided to such employee by the Burro Group Entities immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time; and (ii) severance, paid-time off, qualified defined contribution retirement and health insurance benefits, taken as a whole, that are not less favorable than those provided under the Burro Plans for such employee by the Burro Group Entities immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time. To the extent that the termination of employment of some or all employees of the Burro Group Entities who are not Continuing Employees results in or contributes to the existence of a qualifying event under any WARN Act following the Closing, Kick shall be responsible for all notice and payment requirements under such WARN Act.

(b) Except to the extent required by applicable Law, Kick shall ensure that, as of the Initial Effective Time, each Continuing Employee receives full credit (solely for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, vacation entitlement and severance benefits) for service with the Burro Group Entities under the comparable employee benefit plans, programs and policies of Kick or the Surviving Entities, as applicable, in which such employees became participants; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan or to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. As of the Initial Effective Time, Kick shall, or shall cause the Surviving Entities to, credit to Continuing Employees the amount of vacation time that such employees had accrued under any applicable Burro Plan as of the Initial Effective Time. With respect to each health or welfare benefit plan maintained by Kick or the Surviving Entities for the benefit of Continuing Employees, Kick shall (i) use reasonable best efforts to cause to be waived any eligibility waiting periods, any evidence of insurability requirements and the application of any pre-existing condition limitations under such plan, and (ii) cause each Continuing Employee to be given credit under such plan for all amounts paid by such Continuing Employee under any similar Burro Plan for the plan year that includes the Initial Effective Time for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plans maintained by Kick or the Surviving Entities, as applicable, for the plan year in which the Initial Effective Time occurs.

(c) If requested by Kick in writing delivered to the Partnership not less than ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date, the General Partner Board (or the appropriate committee thereof) shall adopt resolutions and take such action as is necessary or appropriate to terminate any 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by any Burro Group Entity (the “Burro 401(k) Plan”), effective as of the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and contingent upon the occurrence of the Initial Effective Time. If Kick requests that the Burro 401(k) Plan be terminated, (i) the Partnership shall provide Kick with evidence that such plan has been terminated, contingent upon the occurrence of the Initial Effective Time (the form and substance of which shall be subject to reasonable review and comment by Kick), not later than two (2) days immediately preceding the Closing Date and (ii) the Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate, effective as of the Initial Effective Time (or as soon as reasonably administratively practicable thereafter), in a 401(k) plan sponsored or maintained by Kick or one of its Subsidiaries (a “Kick 401(k) Plan”). The Partnership and Kick shall use reasonable best efforts to take any and all actions as may be required, including amendments to the Burro 401(k) Plan and/or the Kick 401(k) Plan, to permit the Continuing Employees who are then actively employed to make rollover contributions to the Kick 401(k) Plan of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) in the form of cash or notes (in the case of loans) in an amount equal to the full account balance distributed to such employee from the Burro 401(k) Plan.

(d) Each Continuing Employee who is eligible as of immediately prior to the Initial Effective Time for a bonus under the Partnership’s annual Short-Term Incentive Plan shall receive a pro-rated bonus for the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs (to the extent such bonus is not otherwise paid prior to the Initial Effective Time), based on the number of days of such calendar year which have lapsed prior to and including the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with the terms of the plan in good faith by the General Partner Board or the Compensation Committee of the General Partner Board based on actual performance as of the Initial Effective Time (or a date reasonably proximate thereto), and measured on a pro-rated basis as determined by General Partner Board or the Compensation Committee of the General Partner Board, with such pro-rata bonus payable at the same time bonuses are paid to similarly situated employees of Kick. Following the Closing Date, Continuing Employees shall be eligible for a pro-rata bonus for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs under a similar Kick Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of such Kick Plan.

(e) Nothing this Section 5.9 or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended nor shall be construed to (i) be treated as an amendment to or modification of any particular Burro Plan, (ii) prevent Kick or any of its Affiliates from amending or terminating any of its employee benefit or compensation plans or other arrangements in accordance their terms, (iii) create a right in any employee to employment with Kick, the Surviving Entities or any of their respective Affiliates, or (iv) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee of the Burro Group Entities or other Person with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and/or benefits that may be provided to any Continuing Employee by Kick or any Burro Group Entity or under any benefit plan which Kick or the Surviving Entities may maintain.

Section 5.10 Stock Exchange Listing. Kick shall cause the shares of Kick Common Stock to be issued in the Initial LP Merger and such other shares of Kick Common Stock (including the shares of Kick Common Stock issuable pursuant to the OpCo LLC Agreement to holders of OpCo Stapled Units) to be reserved for issuance in connection with the Mergers, to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Initial Effective Time.

Section 5.11 Stockholder Litigation. The Burro Parties shall give Kick, and the Kick Parties shall give the Partnership, a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any litigation commenced by any of their respective security holders against them or their respective directors relating to the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No Burro Party shall enter into any settlement agreement in respect of any unitholder litigation against any Burro Party and/or their directors or officers relating to the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby without Kick’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No Kick Party shall enter into any settlement agreement in respect of any stockholder litigation against any Kick Party and/or their directors or officers relating to the Mergers or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby without the Partnership’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 4.1 Authorized Units; General Provisions With Respect to Units.

(a)

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall be authorized to issue from time to time such number of Units and such other Equity Securities as the Managing Member shall determine in accordance with Section 4.3; solely to the extent they are in the aggregate substantially equivalent to a class of common stock of PubCo or class or series of preferred stock of PubCo, respectively; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, as long as there are any Members of the Company (other than PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary), then no such new class or series of Units or Equity Securities may deprive such Members of, or dilute or reduce, the pro rata share of all Interests they would have received

or to which they would have been entitled if such new class or series of Units or Equity Securities had not been created except to the extent (and solely to the extent) the Company actually receives cash in an aggregate amount, or other property with a Fair Market Value in an aggregate amount, equal to the pro rata share allocated to such new class or series of Units or Equity Securities and the number thereof issued by the Company. Each authorized Unit may be issued pursuant to such agreements as the Managing Member shall approve, including pursuant to options and warrants. The Company may reissue any Units that have been repurchased or acquired by the Company.

(b)

Each outstanding Unit shall be identical (except as provided in Section 4.3).

(c)

Initially, none of the Units will be represented by certificates. If the Managing Member determines that it is in the interest of the Company to issue certificates representing the Units, certificates will be issued and the Units will be represented by those certificates, and this Agreement shall be amended as necessary or desirable to reflect the issuance of certificated Units for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code. Nothing contained in this Section 4.1(c) shall be deemed to authorize or permit any Member to Transfer its Units except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement.

(d)

Immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Burro Merger Agreement and the Frontier Mergers, the total number of Units issued and outstanding and held by the Members is set forth on Exhibit A, which Exhibit A may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)

If, at any time after the Subsequent Effective Time, PubCo issues or disposes from treasury a share of its Common Stock (including pursuant to Section 4.6(b)(iii)) or any other Equity Security of PubCo (other than shares of Preferred Stock), (i) the Company shall concurrently issue to PubCo (or a PubCo Subsidiary) one Unit (if PubCo issues or disposes from treasury a share of Common Stock), or such other Equity Security of the Company (if PubCo issues or disposes from treasury Equity Securities other than Common Stock) corresponding to the Equity Securities issued or disposed from treasury by PubCo, and with substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distributions upon liquidation, but taking into account differences resulting from any tax or other liabilities borne by PubCo) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of PubCo to be issued or disposed from treasury and (ii) PubCo shall concurrently contribute (directly or indirectly through a PubCo Subsidiary) to the Company (including pursuant to Section 4.6(b)(iii)) the net proceeds or other property received by PubCo (if any) for such share of Common Stock or other Equity Security; provided, however, that if PubCo issues or disposes from treasury any shares of Common Stock in order to acquire or fund the acquisition by PubCo from a Member (other than PubCo) of a number of Units (and corresponding shares of Preferred Stock) equal to the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or disposed of from treasury, then the Company shall not issue any new Units in connection therewith and, where such shares of Common Stock have been issued or disposed of from treasury for cash to

fund such an acquisition, PubCo shall not be required to transfer such net proceeds to the Company, and such net proceeds shall instead be transferred to such Member as consideration for such acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.1(e) shall not apply to the issuance and distribution to holders of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of rights to purchase Equity Securities of PubCo under a “poison pill” or similar shareholders rights plan (and upon any redemption or transfer of Units for Common Stock, such Common Stock will be issued together with a corresponding right under such plan), or to the issuance under PubCo’s employee benefit plans of any warrants, options, other rights to acquire Equity Securities of PubCo or rights or property that may be converted into or settled in Equity Securities of PubCo, but shall in each of the foregoing cases apply to the issuance of Equity Securities of PubCo in connection with the exercise or settlement of such rights, warrants, options or other rights or property. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, if PubCo issues any Common Stock or other Equity Security for cash proceeds to fund or effect the direct or indirect acquisition by PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary of any Person or the assets of any Person, then PubCo shall not be required to transfer such cash proceeds to the Company but instead PubCo shall contribute (or cause to be contributed) such Person or the material assets and liabilities of such Person to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Except pursuant to Section 4.6, (x) the Company may not issue any additional Units to PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary unless substantially simultaneously therewith PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary issues or disposes from its treasury an equal number of shares of Common Stock to another Person, and (y) the Company may not issue any other Equity Securities of the Company to PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary unless substantially simultaneously PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary issues or disposes from its treasury, an equal number of shares of a class or series of Equity Securities of PubCo to another Person, which Equity Securities have substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distributions upon liquidation, but taking into account differences resulting from any tax or other liabilities borne by PubCo) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of the Company. If at any time PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiaries issues Debt Securities, PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary shall transfer to the Company (in a manner to be determined by the Managing Member in its reasonable discretion) the proceeds received by PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary in exchange for such Debt Securities in a manner that directly or indirectly burdens the Company with the repayment of the Debt Securities. In the event any Equity Security outstanding at PubCo is exercised or otherwise converted and, as a result, any shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities of PubCo are issued, (1) the corresponding Equity Security outstanding at the Company, if any, shall be similarly exercised or otherwise converted, as applicable, and an equivalent number of Units or other Equity Securities of the Company shall be issued to PubCo as contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 4.1(e), and (2) PubCo shall concurrently contribute to the Company the net proceeds received by PubCo from any such exercise.

(f)

Neither PubCo nor any PubCo Subsidiaries may redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (i) any shares of Common Stock (including upon forfeiture of any unvested shares of Common Stock) unless substantially simultaneously the Company redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires from PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary an equal number of Units for the same price per security or (ii) any other Equity Securities of PubCo (other than the acquisition of Preferred Stock in connection with the redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Units), unless substantially simultaneously the Company redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires from PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary an equal number of Equity Securities of the Company of a corresponding class or series with substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distributions upon liquidation, but taking into account differences resulting from any tax or other liabilities borne by PubCo) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of PubCo for the same price per security. The Company may not redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (x) except pursuant to Section 4.6, any Units from PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary unless substantially simultaneously PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires an equal number of shares of Common Stock for the same price per security from holders thereof, or (y) any other Equity Securities of the Company from PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary unless substantially simultaneously PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires for the same price per security an equal number of Equity Securities of PubCo of a corresponding class or series with substantially the same rights to dividends and distributions (including distribution upon liquidation, but taking into account differences resulting from any tax or other liabilities borne by PubCo) and other economic rights as those of such Equity Securities of PubCo. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any consideration payable by PubCo in connection with the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities of PubCo consists (in whole or in part) of shares of Common Stock or such other Equity Securities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the cashless exercise of an option or warrant), then the redemption or repurchase of the corresponding Units or other Equity Securities of the Company shall be effectuated in an equivalent manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may redeem Units from PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary (x) for cash to fund any direct or indirect acquisition by PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary of another Person or (y) for all or a portion of the stock or other equity interests of a Subsidiary of the Company; provided that, promptly after such redemption (and acquisition, if applicable), PubCo or such PubCo Subsidiary contributes or causes to be contributed, directly or indirectly, such acquired Person or former Subsidiary of the Company, or the material assets and liabilities of such acquired Person or former Subsidiary of the Company, to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in exchange for a number of Units equal to the number of Units so redeemed.

(g)

The Company shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any equity split, equity distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse equity split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the outstanding Units unless accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination, as applicable, of the outstanding Common Stock and Preferred Stock, with corresponding changes made with respect to any other exchangeable or convertible securities. PubCo shall not in any manner effect any subdivision (by any equity split, equity distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or

combination (by reverse equity split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the outstanding Common Stock or Preferred Stock unless accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination, as applicable, of the outstanding Units, with corresponding changes made with respect to any other exchangeable or convertible securities.

(h)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including Section 4.1(e) and (g)), but subject to Section 4.1(a), if PubCo acquires or holds a material amount of cash in excess of the amount that will enable PubCo to meet its U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax or other reasonably anticipated monetary obligations, PubCo may, in its sole discretion, (i) contribute such excess cash amount to the Company in exchange for a number of Units (but only to the extent the Company actually receives cash therefor in an aggregate amount, or other property therefor with a Fair Market Value in an aggregate amount, or a combination thereof, equal to at least the Fair Market Value of such Units), and distribute to the holders of Common Stock shares of Common Stock that correspond economically to such Units, or (ii) take such other actions with respect to the capitalization of PubCo and the Company and to the one-to-one exchange ratio between Units and shares of Common Stock, as PubCo (in its capacity as Managing Member) in Good Faith determines to be fair and reasonable to the PubCo shareholders and to the Members and to preserve the intended economic effect of this Section 4.1, Section 4.6 and the other provisions hereof.

Section 4.2 Voting Rights. Except as expressly provided herein, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, no Member (other than the Managing Member) shall have any right to vote on any matter involving the Company, including with respect to any merger, consolidation, combination or conversion of the Company, or any other matter that a Member might otherwise have the ability to vote on or consent with respect to under the Act, at law, in equity or otherwise. Except as otherwise required by the Act, each Unit will entitle the holder thereof to one vote on all matters to be voted on by the Members. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the holders of Units having voting rights will vote together as a single class on all matters to be approved by the Members.

Section 4.3 Capital Contributions; Unit Ownership.

(a)

Capital Contributions. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.1(e) with respect to the obligations of PubCo, no Member shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions.

(b)

Issuance of Additional Units or Interests. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall have the right to authorize and cause the Company to issue on such terms (including price) as may be determined by the Managing Member (i) subject to the limitations of Section 4.1, additional Units or other Equity Securities in the Company (including creating preferred interests or other classes or series of interests having such rights, preferences and privileges as determined by the Managing Member, which rights, preferences and privileges may be senior to the Units), and (ii) obligations, evidences of

Indebtedness or other securities or interests convertible or exchangeable for Units or other Equity Securities in the Company; provided that, at any time following the date hereof, in each case the Company shall not issue Equity Securities in the Company to any Person unless such Person shall have executed a counterpart to this Agreement and all other documents, agreements or instruments deemed necessary or desirable in the discretion of the Managing Member. Upon such issuance and execution, such Person shall be admitted as a Member of the Company. In that event, the Managing Member shall amend Exhibit A to reflect such additional issuances. Subject to Section 12.1, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to amend this Agreement to set forth the designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties of such additional Units or other Equity Securities in the Company, or such other amendments that the Managing Member determines to be otherwise necessary or appropriate in connection with the creation, authorization or issuance of, any class or series of Units or other Equity Securities in the Company pursuant to this Section 4.3(b). The Company shall provide prompt notice to PubCo of such issuance. In consideration of the benefits to PubCo of having an equal number of shares of Preferred Stock and Units (held by Members other than PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary) outstanding, and the indirect benefits obtained by PubCo of the consideration provided to the Company for any additional issuance of Units, upon notice from the Company that it has issued additional Units to a Person other than PubCo or a PubCo Subsidiary in accordance with this Section 4.3(b), PubCo shall issue a number of shares of Preferred Stock to the applicable recipient of such Units equal to the aggregate number of Units issued by the Company to such recipient in such issuance, for no additional consideration. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, and except for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in connection with a subdivision (by any equity split, equity distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) in accordance with Section 4.1(g), PubCo shall not at any time after the Subsequent Effective Time issue or dispose from treasury any additional shares of Preferred Stock.

Section 4.4 Capital Accounts. A Capital Account shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and, to the extent consistent with such regulations, the other provisions of this Agreement. Each Member’s Capital Account shall be (a) increased by (i) allocations to such Member of Profits pursuant to Section 5.1 and any other items of income or gain allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 5.2, (ii) the amount of any cash or the initial Gross Asset Value of any asset (net of any Liabilities assumed by the Company and any Liabilities to which the asset is subject) contributed to the Company by such Member, and (iii) any other increases allowed or required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and (b) decreased by (i) allocations to such Member of Losses pursuant to Section 5.1 and any other items of deduction or loss allocated to such Member pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.2, (ii) the amount of any cash or the Gross Asset Value of any asset (net of any Liabilities assumed by the Member and any Liabilities to which the asset is subject) distributed to such Member, and (iii) any other decreases allowed or required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). In the event of a Transfer of Units made in accordance with this Agreement (including a deemed Transfer for U.S. federal income tax purposes as described in Section 4.6(a)(v)), the Capital Account of the Transferor that is attributable to the Transferred Units shall carry over to the Transferee Member in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(l).

Section 4.5 Other Matters.

(a)

No Member shall demand or receive a return on or of its Capital Contributions or withdraw from the Company without the consent of the Managing Member. Under circumstances requiring a return of any Capital Contributions, no Member has the right to receive property other than cash.

(b)

No Member shall receive any interest, salary, compensation, draw or reimbursement with respect to its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account, or for services rendered or expenses incurred on behalf of the Company or otherwise in its capacity as a Member, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.8 or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement.

(c)

The Liability of each Member shall be limited as set forth in the Act and other applicable Law and, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or required by Law, no Member (or any of its Affiliates) shall be personally liable, whether to the Company, any of the other Members, the creditors of the Company, or any other third party, for any debt or Liability of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, solely by reason of being a Member of the Company.

(d)

Except as otherwise required by the Act, a Member shall not be required to restore a deficit balance in such Member’s Capital Account, to lend any funds to the Company or, except as otherwise set forth herein, to make any additional contributions or payments to the Company.

(e)

The Company shall not be obligated to repay any Capital Contributions of any Member.

Section 4.6 Redemption of Units.

(a)

(i)

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 4.6, each of the Members (other than PubCo and any PubCo Subsidiary) (the “Redeeming Member”) shall be entitled, from time to time after the date that is 180 days after the Burro Transactions Closing Date, to cause the Company to redeem all or a portion of such Member’s Units (and, in connection with such redemption, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, an equal number of shares of Preferred Stock registered in the name of such holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Company, PubCo or such holder be transferred to PubCo and shall no longer be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares shall automatically cease) for an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock (a “Redemption”) or, at the Company’s election made in accordance with Section 4.6(a)(iv), cash equal to the Cash Election Amount calculated with respect to such Redemption.

(ii)

Absent the prior written consent of the Managing Member,

(A)

Except as set forth in Section 4.6(a)(ii)(B), with respect to each Redemption, a Redeeming Member shall be (1) required to redeem at least a number of Units equal to the lesser of 50,000 Units and all of the Units then held by such Redeeming Member and (2) permitted to effect a Redemption of Units no more frequently than once per calendar quarter.

(B)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 4.6(l), a Redeeming Member, either alone or concurrently with its Affiliates, may exercise its Redemption right no more frequently than once during any 45 day period with respect to at least 300,000 Units at any time, but no more frequently than five times total during any calendar year.

(C)

The Managing Member may, in its discretion, adopt a policy to limit Redemptions pursuant to Section 4.6(a)(ii)(A) to a particular date or period during each quarter by providing notice of such limitation to all Members prior to the beginning of the relevant quarter, provided that such policy incorporates the language in Section 4.6(a)(ii)(B). Upon the Redemption of all of a Member’s Units, such Member shall, for the avoidance of doubt, cease to be a Member of the Company.

(iii)

In order to exercise the redemption right under Section 4.6(a)(i), the Redeeming Member shall provide written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) to the Company, with a copy to PubCo (the date of delivery of such Redemption Notice, the “Redemption Notice Date”), stating:

(A)

the number of Units the Redeeming Member elects to have the Company redeem;

(B)

if the shares of Common Stock to be received are to be issued other than in the name of the Redeeming Member, the name(s) of the Person(s) in whose name or on whose order the shares of Common Stock are to be issued;

(C)

whether the exercise of the redemption right is to be contingent (including as to timing) upon the closing of an underwritten offering of the shares of Common Stock for which the Units will be redeemed in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement or the closing of an announced merger, consolidation or other transaction or event to which PubCo is a party in which the shares of Common Stock would be exchanged or converted or become exchangeable for or convertible into cash or other securities or property; and

(D)

if the Redeeming Member requires the Redemption to take place on a specific date, such date, provided that, any such specified date shall not be earlier than the date that would otherwise apply pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Redemption Date.

If the Units to be redeemed (or the shares of Preferred Stock to be automatically transferred to PubCo in connection with such Redemption) by the Redeeming Member are represented by a certificate or certificates, prior to the Redemption Date and as a condition to the Redemption, the Redeeming Member shall also present and surrender such certificate or certificates representing such Units (or shares of Preferred Stock) during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Company, or if any agent for the registration or transfer of Common Stock and Preferred Stock is then duly appointed and acting (the “Transfer Agent”), at the office of the Transfer Agent. If required by the Managing Member, any certificate for Units surrendered to the Company hereunder and any certificate for shares of Preferred Stock to be automatically transferred to PubCo in connection with such Redemption (in each case, if certificated) shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in forms reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member and the Transfer Agent, duly executed by the Redeeming Member or the Redeeming Member’s duly authorized representative.

(iv)

Upon receipt of a Redemption Notice, the Company shall be entitled to elect (a “Cash Election”) to settle the Redemption by delivering to the Redeeming Member, in lieu of the applicable number of shares of Common Stock that would be received in such Redemption, an amount of cash equal to the Cash Election Amount for such Redemption. In order to make a Cash Election with respect to a Redemption, the Company must provide written notice of such election to the Redeeming Member (with a copy to PubCo) prior to 5:00 p.m., Houston time, on or prior to the second Business Day after the Redemption Notice Date. If the Company fails to provide such written notice prior to such time, it shall not be entitled to make a Cash Election with respect to such Redemption and such Units (together with the same number of shares of Preferred Stock) subject to such Redemption shall be settled for an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock.

(v)

Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, for U.S. federal income (and applicable state and local) tax purposes, each of the Redeeming Member, the Company and PubCo, as the case may be, agree to treat each Redemption and, in the event PubCo exercises its Call Right, each transaction between the Redeeming Member and PubCo, as a sale of the

Redeeming Member’s Units to PubCo in exchange for shares of Common Stock or cash, as applicable. PubCo, the Company and their Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable upon a Redemption such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or any provision of applicable Law, and to the extent deduction and withholding is required, such deduction and withholding may be taken in Class A Shares. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give written notice to the Redeeming Member prior to any such deduction or withholding and shall reasonably cooperate with such Redeeming Member to reduce or avoid any such withholding.

(b)

(i)

Subject to the satisfaction of any contingency described in Section 4.6(a)(iii)(C) that is specified in the relevant Redemption Notice, including that the Redemption Notice may be conditioned on the closing of an underwritten distribution of shares of Common Stock that may be issued in connection with such proposed Redemption pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Redemption shall be completed on the Redemption Date; provided, that if a valid Cash Election has not been made and the Redemption Notice was made in connection with a public offering, the Redeeming Member may, at any time prior to the Redemption Date, revoke its Redemption Notice by giving written notice (the “Retraction Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to PubCo). The timely delivery of a Retraction Notice shall terminate all of the Redeeming Member’s, the Company’s and PubCo’s rights and obligations arising from the retracted Redemption Notice.

(ii)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the Company does not elect the Cash Election in connection with a Redemption, a Redeeming Member shall be entitled to delay the Redemption Date or revoke its Redemption Notice by giving a written notice (the “Delay or Retraction Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to PubCo) if any of the following conditions exists: (A) any registration statement pursuant to which the resale of the Common Stock to be registered for such Redeeming Member at or immediately following the consummation of the Redemption shall have ceased to be effective pursuant to any action or inaction by the Commission or no such resale registration statement has yet become effective; (B) the Company shall have failed to cause any related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement necessary to effect such Redemption; (C) the Company shall have exercised its right to defer, delay or suspend the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement under the Registration Rights Agreement and such deferral, delay or suspension shall affect the ability of such Redeeming Member to have its Common Stock registered at or immediately following the consummation of the Redemption; (D) the Company shall have

disclosed to such Redeeming Member any material non-public information concerning the Company, the receipt of which results in such Redeeming Member being prohibited or restricted from selling Common Stock at or immediately following the Redemption without disclosure of such information (and the Company does not permit disclosure); (E) any stop order relating to the registration statement pursuant to which the Common Stock was to be registered by such Redeeming Member at or immediately following the Redemption shall have been issued by the Commission; (F) there shall have occurred a material disruption in the securities markets generally or in the market or markets in which the Common Stock is then traded; or (G) there shall be in effect an injunction, a restraining order or a decree of any nature of any Governmental Entity that restrains or prohibits the Redemption. If a Redeeming Member delays the consummation of a Redemption pursuant to this Section 4.6(b)(ii), the Redemption Date shall occur on the fifth Business Day following the date on which the conditions giving rise to such delay cease to exist (or such earlier day as the Company and such Redeeming Member may agree in writing).

(iii)

Unless the Redeeming Member has timely issued a Retraction Notice under Section 4.6(b)(i) or issued a Delay or Retraction Notice under Section 4.6(b)(ii), or, subject to the foregoing and Section 4.6(e), PubCo has validly elected its Call Right pursuant to Section 4.6(f), on the Redemption Date (to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date) (A) the Redeeming Member shall transfer and surrender the Units to be redeemed to the Company (and in connection with such redemption, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, an equal number of shares of Preferred Stock registered in the name of such holder shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Company, PubCo or such holder be transferred to PubCo and shall no longer be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares shall automatically cease), free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, (B) PubCo shall contribute to the Company the consideration the Redeeming Member is entitled to receive under Section 4.6(a)(i) and, as described in Section 4.1(e), the Company shall issue to PubCo a number of Units as consideration for such contribution, and (C) the Company shall (x) cancel the redeemed Units, (y) transfer to the Redeeming Member the consideration the Redeeming Member is entitled to receive under Section 4.6(a)(i), and (z) if the Units are certificated, issue to the Redeeming Member a certificate for a number of Units equal to the difference (if any) between the number of Units evidenced by the certificate surrendered by the Redeeming Member pursuant to clause (iii)(A) of this Section 4.6(b) and the number of redeemed Units. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Company makes a valid Cash Election, PubCo shall only be obligated to contribute to the Company an amount in cash equal to the net proceeds from the sale by PubCo of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Units to be redeemed with such cash or from the sale of other PubCo Equity Securities used to fund the Cash

Election Amount; provided that PubCo’s Capital Account shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 7.8; provided further, that the contribution of such net proceeds shall in no event affect the Redeeming Member’s right to receive the Cash Election Amount; provided further, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Cash Election Amount to which the Redeeming Member is entitled exceeds the full amount that is contributed to the Company by PubCo, then the Company shall still be required to pay the Redeeming Member the full Cash Election Amount.

(c)

If (i) there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction pursuant to which the shares of Common Stock are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property (other than as a result of a subdivision or combination or any transaction subject to Section 4.1(g)), or (ii) PubCo, by dividend or otherwise, distributes to all holders of the shares of Common Stock evidences of its Indebtedness or assets, including securities (including shares of Common Stock and any rights, options or warrants to all holders of the shares of Common Stock to subscribe for or to purchase or to otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock, or other securities or rights convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for shares of Common Stock) but excluding (A) any dividend subject to Section 4.1(h) and (B) (x) any dividend or distribution of cash, or (y) any such dividend or distribution of Indebtedness or assets in either case of clauses (B)(x) or (B)(y) received by PubCo from the Company in respect of the Units or other Equity Securities of the Company, then upon any subsequent Redemption, in addition to the shares of Common Stock or the Cash Election Amount, as applicable, each Member shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property, evidences of Indebtedness or assets that such Member would have received if such Redemption had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, other similar transaction, dividend or other distribution, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property, evidences of Indebtedness or assets that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, other similar transaction, dividend or distribution. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, or any dividend or distribution (other than an excluded dividend or distribution, as described above), this Section 4.6 shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property. This Agreement shall apply to the Units held by the Members and their Permitted Transferees as of the date hereof, as well as any Units hereafter acquired by a Member and his or her or its Permitted Transferees.

(d)

PubCo shall at all times keep available, solely for the purpose of issuance upon a Redemption, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable upon the Redemption of all outstanding Units (other than those Units held by PubCo or any Subsidiary of PubCo); provided, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude PubCo from satisfying its obligations with respect to a Redemption by delivery of cash pursuant to a Cash Election or shares of Common Stock that are held in the treasury of PubCo. PubCo covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be issued upon a Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, 5-Year Minority Member Redemption, or exercise of a Call Right by PubCo shall, upon issuance thereof, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, for so long as the shares of Common Stock are listed on a National Securities Exchange, PubCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all shares of Common Stock issued upon a Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, 5-Year Minority Member Redemption, or exercise of a Call Right by PubCo, in each case, to be listed on such National Securities Exchange at the time of such issuance.

(e)

The issuance of shares of Common Stock upon a Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, 5-Year Minority Member Redemption, or exercise of the Call Right, shall be made without charge to the applicable Member for any stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance; provided, however, that if any such shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that of the applicable Member, then the Person or Persons in whose name the shares are to be issued shall pay to PubCo the amount of any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in such issuance or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of PubCo that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.6, but subject to Section 4.6(g) and without limitation to the rights of the Members under this Section 4.6, including the right to revoke a Redemption Notice which shall apply mutatis mutandis to any Call Right elected by PubCo, , PubCo may, in its sole discretion, by means of delivery of a Call Election Notice in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, this Section 4.6(f), elect to purchase directly and acquire such Units (and in connection with such purchase, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, an equal number of shares of Preferred Stock registered in the name of a Redeeming Member shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Company, PubCo or such holder be transferred to PubCo and shall no longer be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares shall automatically cease) on the Redemption Date by paying to the Redeeming Member (or, on the Redeeming Member’s written order, its designee) that number of shares of Common Stock the Redeeming Member (or its designee) would otherwise receive pursuant to Section 4.6(a)(i) or, at PubCo’s election, an amount of cash equal to the Cash Election Amount of such shares of Common Stock (the “Call Right”), whereupon PubCo shall acquire (and any such Redeeming Member shall transfer to PubCo) such Units from such Redeeming Member (together with the automatic transfer to PubCo of the same number of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designation). PubCo shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Units. PubCo may, at any time prior to the Redemption Date, in its sole discretion deliver written notice (a “Call Election Notice”) to the Company

and the Redeeming Member setting forth its election to exercise its Call Right; provided that any such election does not prejudice the ability of the parties to consummate a Redemption or a Call Right on the Redemption Date. A Call Election Notice may be revoked by PubCo at any time; provided that any such revocation does not prejudice the ability of the parties to consummate a Redemption on the Redemption Date. The right to consummate a Call Right in all events shall be exercisable for all the Units set forth in the applicable Redemption Notice that would have otherwise been subject to the Redemption. Except as otherwise provided by this Section 4.6(f), an exercise of the Call Right shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in the same manner as the relevant Redemption would have been consummated if PubCo had not delivered a Call Election Notice.

(g)

In connection with a PubCo Change of Control that is approved by the board of directors of PubCo, PubCo shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require each Member (other than PubCo and any PubCo Subsidiary) to effect a Redemption of some or all of such Member’s Units (together with the automatic transfer of the same number of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designation) (a “Change of Control Redemption”); provided that a Cash Election shall not be permitted pursuant to such a Change of Control Redemption under this Section 4.6(g). Any Change of Control Redemption pursuant to this Section 4.6(g) shall be effective contingent upon and immediately prior to the consummation of the PubCo Change of Control (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be effective if such PubCo Change of Control is not consummated) (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”). From and after the Change of Control Redemption Date, (i) the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such Change of Control Redemption shall be deemed to be transferred to PubCo on the Change of Control Redemption Date and (ii) such Member shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such Change of Control Redemption (other than the right to receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Change of Control Redemption). PubCo shall provide written notice of an expected PubCo Change of Control to all Members within the earlier of (x) ten (10) Business Days following the execution of the definitive agreement with respect to such PubCo Change of Control and (y) ten (10) Business Days before the proposed date upon which the contemplated PubCo Change of Control is to be effected, indicating in such notice such information as may reasonably describe the PubCo Change of Control transaction, subject to applicable law, including the date of execution of such agreement or such proposed effective date, as applicable, the amount and types of consideration to be paid for shares of Common Stock in the PubCo Change of Control, any election with respect to types of consideration that a holder of shares of Common Stock, as applicable, shall be entitled to make in connection with such PubCo Change of Control, and the number of Units (and corresponding shares of Preferred Stock) held by such Member that PubCo intends to require to be subject to such Change of Control Redemption. Following delivery of such notice and on or prior to the Change of Control Redemption Date, the Members shall take all actions reasonably requested by PubCo to effect such Change of Control Redemption, including taking any reasonable action and delivering any document reasonably required pursuant to the remainder of this Section 4.6 to effect a Change of Control Redemption.

(h)

In the event that (i) the Members (other than PubCo and its wholly owned Subsidiaries) beneficially own, in the aggregate, less than 1.5% of the then outstanding Units and (ii) the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading on a National Securities Exchange, PubCo shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require any Member (other than PubCo and its wholly owned Subsidiaries) that beneficially owns less than 50,000 of the then outstanding Units, to effect a Redemption of some or all of such Member’s Units (together with the automatic transfer to PubCo of the same number of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designation) (a “Minority Member Redemption”). PubCo shall deliver written notice to the Company and any such Member of its intention to exercise its right pursuant to this Section 4.6(h) (a “Minority Member Redemption Notice”) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date upon which such transfer is to be effected (such proposed date, the “Minority Member Redemption Date”), indicating in such notice the number of Units (and corresponding shares of Preferred Stock) held by such Member that PubCo intends to require to be subject to such transfer. Any transfer pursuant to this Section 4.6(h) shall be effective on the Minority Member Redemption Date. From and after the Minority Member Redemption Date, (i) the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such Minority Member Redemption Notice shall be deemed to be transferred to PubCo on the Minority Member Redemption Date and (ii) such Member shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such Minority Member Redemption Notice (other than the right to receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Minority Member Redemption). Following delivery of a Minority Member Redemption Notice and on or prior to the Minority Member Redemption Date, the Members shall take all actions reasonably requested by PubCo to effect such Minority Member Redemption, including taking any action and delivering any document required pursuant to the remainder of this Section 4.6 to effect a Redemption.

(i)

On or after the date that is the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Burro Transactions Closing Date, PubCo shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require any or all of the Members (other than PubCo and any PubCo Subsidiary) to effect a Redemption of some or all of such Member’s Units (together with the automatic transfer of the same number of shares of Preferred Stock) (a “5-Year Minority Member Redemption”). PubCo shall deliver written notice to the Company and any such Member of its intention to exercise its 5-Year Minority Member Redemption right pursuant to this Section 4.6(i) (a “5-Year Minority Member Redemption Notice”) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date upon which such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption is to be effected (such proposed date, the “5-Year Minority Member Redemption Date”), indicating in such notice the number of Units (and corresponding shares of Preferred Stock) held by such Member that PubCo intends to require to be subject to such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption. Any 5-Year Minority Member Redemption pursuant to this Section 4.6(i) shall be effective on the 5-Year Minority Member

Redemption Date. From and after the 5-Year Minority Member Redemption Date, (i) the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption shall be deemed to be transferred to PubCo on the 5-Year Minority Member Redemption Date and (ii) such Member shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Units and shares of Preferred Stock subject to such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption (other than the right to receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption). Following delivery of a 5-Year Minority Member Redemption Notice and on or prior to the 5-Year Minority Member Redemption Date, the Members shall take all actions reasonably requested by PubCo to effect such 5-Year Minority Member Redemption, including taking any action and delivering any document required pursuant to the remainder of this Section 4.6 to effect a Redemption.

(j)

No Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption shall impair the right of the applicable Member to receive any distributions payable on the Units redeemed pursuant to such Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Redemption Date, Change of Control Redemption Date, Minority Member Redemption Date or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption Date for such Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the applicable Member, nor a Person designated by the applicable Member to receive shares of Common Stock, shall be entitled to receive, with respect to such record date, distributions or dividends both on Units redeemed by the Company or transferred to PubCo from such applicable Member and on shares of Common Stock received by such Person, in such Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption.

(k)

Any Units acquired by the Company under this Section 4.6 shall remain outstanding and shall not be cancelled as a result of their acquisition by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, PubCo shall be automatically admitted as a Member of the Company with respect to any Units or other Equity Securities in the Company it receives under this Agreement (including under this Section 4.6 in connection with any Redemption, Change of Control Redemption, Minority Member Redemption, or 5-Year Minority Member Redemption).

(l)

The Managing Member may impose additional limitations and restrictions on Redemptions (including limiting Redemptions or creating priority procedures for Redemptions; provided, that, such limitations or procedures are applied in a non-discriminatory manner amongst all similarly situated Members), to the extent it determines, in its sole discretion, such limitations and restrictions to be necessary or appropriate to avoid undue risk that the Company may be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code (the “Redemption Limits”). Furthermore, the Managing Member may require any

Member or group of Members to redeem all of their Units to the extent it determines, in its sole discretion, that such Redemption is necessary or appropriate to avoid undue risk that the Company may be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code. Upon delivery of any notice by the Managing Member to such Member or group of Members requiring such Redemption, such Member or group of Members shall exchange, subject to exercise by PubCo of its Call Right pursuant to Section 4.6(f), all of their Units effective as of the date specified in such notice (and such date shall be deemed to be a Redemption Date for purposes of this Agreement) in accordance with this Section 4.6 and otherwise in accordance with the requirements set forth in such notice.

ARTICLE V.

ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES

Section 5.1 Profits and Losses. After giving effect to the allocations under Section 5.2 and subject to Section 5.4, Profits and Losses (and, to the extent determined by the Managing Member to be necessary and appropriate to achieve the resulting Capital Account balances described below, any allocable items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit includable in the computation of Profits and Losses) for each Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be allocated among the Members during such Fiscal Year or other taxable period in a manner such that, after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 5.2 and all distributions through the end of such Fiscal Year or other taxable period, the Capital Account balance of each Member shall be equal on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of Units held by each Member (prior to taking into account the Members’ share of any Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum Gain and the amount any Member is treated as obligated to contribute to the Company).

Section 5.2 Special Allocations.

(a)

Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be specially allocated to the Members on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Units owned by each Member as of the last day of such Fiscal Year or other taxable period. The amount of Nonrecourse Deductions for a Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall equal the excess, if any, of the net increase, if any, in the amount of Company Minimum Gain during that Fiscal Year or other taxable period over the aggregate amount of any distributions during that Fiscal Year or other taxable period of proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability that are allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d).

(b)

Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year or other taxable period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If more than one Member bears the economic risk of loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the economic risk of loss. This Section 5.2(b) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year or other taxable period (or if there was a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain for a prior Fiscal Year or other taxable period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.2(c)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Fiscal Year or other taxable period in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during such year (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This section is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement except Section 5.2(c), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year or other taxable period (or if there was a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain for a prior Fiscal Year or other taxable period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.2(d)), each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4)). This section is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e)

Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(b), no Losses or other items of loss or expense shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such allocation would cause such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) at the end of such Fiscal Year or other taxable period. All Losses and other items of loss and expense in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.2(e) shall be allocated to the Members who do not have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit in proportion to their relative positive Capital Accounts but only to the extent that such Losses and other items of loss and expense do not cause any such Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.

(f)

Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.2(c) and Section 5.2(d), in the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in paragraph (4), (5) or (6) of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), items of income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of income, including gross income, and gain for the Fiscal Year or other taxable period) shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate any Adjusted Capital Account Deficit

of that Member as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.2(f) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.2(f) were not in this Agreement. This Section 5.2(f) is intended to constitute a qualified income offset under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii) (d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(g)

If any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year or other taxable period that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount that such Member is obligated to restore and (ii) the amount that the Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5), that Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.2(g) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE V have been made as if Section 5.2(f) and this Section 5.2(g) were not in this Agreement.

(h)

To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution to any Member in complete liquidation of such Member’s Interest in the Company, 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 item of gain or loss shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) if such section applies or to the Member to whom such distribution was made if Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(i)

The allocations set forth in Section 5.2(a) through Section 5.2(h) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this ARTICLE V (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations (and anticipated future 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 allocation of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member should be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. This Section 5.2(i) is intended to minimize to the extent possible and to the extent necessary any economic distortions which may result from application of the Regulatory Allocations and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

Section 5.3 Allocations for Tax Purposes in General.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.3, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such item is allocated under Section 5.1 and Section 5.2.

(b)

In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (including the Treasury Regulations applying the principles of Code Section 704(c) to changes in Gross Asset Values), items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any Company property having a Gross Asset Value that differs from such property’s adjusted U.S. federal income tax basis shall, solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be allocated among the Members to account for any such difference using (i) in the case of any such difference arising in connection with the Burro Transactions, the “remedial method” under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d) and (ii) in the case of any other such difference, such method or methods determined by the Managing Member to be appropriate and in accordance with the applicable Treasury Regulations.

(c)

Any (i) recapture of depreciation or any other item of deduction shall be allocated, in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1245-1(e) and 1.1254-5, to the Members who received the benefit of such deductions, and (ii) recapture of credits shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with applicable law.

(d)

Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3 are solely for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect or in any way be taken into account in computing any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

(e)

If, as a result of an exercise of a noncompensatory option to acquire an interest in the Company, a Capital Account reallocation is required under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s)(3), the Company shall make corrective allocations pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(x).

Section 5.4 Other Allocation Rules.

(a)

The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this ARTICLE V and the economic impact of the allocations on the amounts receivable by them under this Agreement. The Members hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this ARTICLE V in reporting their share of Company income and loss for income tax purposes.

(b)

The provisions regarding the establishment and maintenance for each Member of a Capital Account as provided by Section 4.4 and the allocations set forth in Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and Section 5.3 are intended to comply with the Treasury Regulations and to reflect the intended economic entitlement of the Members. If the Managing Member determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of the provisions in Section 4.4, Section 5.1, Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 would result in non-compliance with the Treasury Regulations or would be inconsistent with the intended economic entitlement of the Members, the Managing Member is authorized to make any appropriate adjustments to such provisions.

(c)

All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable to an interest in the Company that may have been Transferred shall be allocated between the Transferor and the Transferee based on the portion of the Fiscal Year or other taxable period during which each was recognized as the owner of such interest, without regard to the results of Company operations during any particular portion of that year and without regard to whether cash distributions were made to the Transferor or the Transferee during that year; provided, however, that this allocation must be made in accordance with a method permissible under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(d)

The Members’ proportionate shares of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Company, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), shall be allocated to the Members on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Units owned by each Member.

ARTICLE VI.

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 6.1 Distributions.

(a)

Distributions. To the extent permitted by applicable Law and hereunder, and except as otherwise provided in Section 11.3, distributions to Members may be declared by the Managing Member out of funds legally available therefor in such amounts and on such terms (including the payment dates of such distributions) as the Managing Member shall determine using such record date as the Managing Member may designate; any such distribution shall be made to the Members as of the close of business on such record date on a pro rata basis (except that, for the avoidance of doubt, repurchases or redemptions made in accordance with Section 4.1(f) or payments made in accordance with Section 7.4 or Section 7.8 need not be on a pro rata basis), in accordance with the number of Units owned by each Member as of the close of business on such record date; provided, however, that the Managing Member shall have the obligation to make distributions as set forth in Section 6.2 and Section 11.3(b)(iii); and provided, further, that, notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, no distributions shall be made to any Member to the extent such distribution would render the Company insolvent or violate the Act. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, insolvency means the inability of the Company to meet its payment obligations when due. Promptly following the designation of a record date and the declaration of a distribution pursuant to this Section 6.1, the Managing Member shall give notice to each Member of the record date, the amount and the terms of the distribution and the payment date thereof.

(b)

Successors. For purposes of determining the amount of distributions, each Member shall be treated as having made the Capital Contributions and as having received the distributions made to or received by its predecessors in respect of any of such Member’s Units.

(c)

Distributions In-Kind. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any distributions may be made in cash or in kind, or partly in cash and partly in kind, as determined by the Managing Member. To the extent that the Company distributes property in-kind to the Members, the Company shall be treated as making a distribution equal to the Fair Market Value of such property for purposes of Section 6.1(a) and such property shall be treated as if it were sold for an amount equal to its Fair Market Value. Any resulting gain or loss shall be allocated to the Member’s Capital Accounts in accordance with Section 5.1 and Section 5.2.

Section 6.2 Tax-Related Distributions. The Company shall, subject to any restrictions contained in any agreement to which the Company is bound, advance distributions out of legally available funds at such times and in such amounts as the Managing Member reasonably determines is necessary to enable PubCo and any PubCo Subsidiary to timely satisfy all of their U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax liabilities. If PubCo or any PubCo Subsidiary receives an advance described in this Section 6.2, the Company shall, no later than ninety (90) days after the date of such advance, make corresponding distributions to all other Members on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the number of Units owned by each Member.

Section 6.3 Distribution Upon Withdrawal. No withdrawing Member shall be entitled to receive any distribution or the value of such Member’s Interest in the Company as a result of withdrawal from the Company prior to the liquidation of the Company, except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII.

MANAGEMENT

Section 7.1 The Managing Member; Fiduciary Duties.

(a)

PubCo shall be the sole Managing Member of the Company, which may from time to time delegate authority to Officers or to others to act on behalf of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and except as otherwise required by Law or as set forth in this Agreement (i) the Managing Member shall have full and complete charge of all affairs of the Company, (ii) the management and control of the Company’s business activities and operations shall rest exclusively with the Managing Member, and the Managing Member shall make all decisions regarding the business, activities and operations of the Company (including the incurrence of costs and expenses) in its sole discretion without the consent of any other Member and (iii) the Members other than the Managing Member (in their capacity as such) shall not participate in the control, management, direction or operation of the activities or affairs of the Company and shall have no power to act for or bind the Company.

(b)

In connection with the performance of its duties as the Managing Member of the Company, except as otherwise set forth herein, the Managing Member acknowledges that it will owe to the Members the same fiduciary duties as it would owe to the stockholders of a Delaware corporation if it were a member of the board of directors of such a corporation and the Members were stockholders of such corporation. The Members acknowledge that the Managing Member will take action through its board of directors, and that the members of the Managing Member’s board of directors will owe comparable fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Managing Member.

Section 7.2 Officers. Subject to the direction and oversight of the Managing Member, the day-to-day administration of the business of the Company may be carried out by persons who may be designated as officers by the Managing Member, with titles including “assistant secretary,” “assistant treasurer,” “chairman,” “chief executive officer,” “chief financial officer,” “chief operating officer,” “director,” “general counsel,” “general manager,” “managing director,” “president,” “principal accounting officer,” “secretary,” “senior chairman,” “senior managing director,” “treasurer,” “vice chairman,” “executive vice president” or “vice president,” and as and to the extent authorized by the Managing Member in its sole discretion. The officers of the Company shall have such titles and powers and perform such duties as shall be determined from time to time by the Managing Member and otherwise as shall customarily pertain to such offices. Any number of offices may be held by the same person. In its sole discretion, the Managing Member may choose not to fill any office for any period as it may deem advisable. All officers and other persons providing services to or for the benefit of the Company shall be subject to the supervision and direction of the Managing Member and may be removed, with or without cause, from such office by the Managing Member and the authority, duties or responsibilities of any employee, agent or officer of the Company may be suspended by the Managing Member from time to time, in each case in the sole discretion of the Managing Member. The Managing Member shall not cease to be a Managing Member of the Company as a result of the delegation of any duties hereunder. No officer of the Company, in its capacity as such, shall be considered a Managing Member of the Company by agreement, as a result of the performance of its duties hereunder or otherwise.

Section 7.3 Warranted Reliance by Officers on Others. In exercising their authority and performing their duties under this Agreement, the Officers shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements of the following Persons or groups unless they have actual knowledge concerning the matter in question that would cause such reliance to be unwarranted:

(a)

one or more employees or other agents of the Company or subordinates whom the Officer reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented; and

(b)

any attorney, public accountant, or other Person as to matters which the Officer reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence.

Section 7.4 Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law (including the Act) as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Company is providing immediately prior to such amendment) any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, investigation or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he, or a person for whom he is the legal representative, is or was a Manager entitled to indemnification under the Existing LLC Agreement, a Member, an Officer, or acting as the Managing Member, Company Representative of the Company or, while a Manager entitled to indemnification under the Existing LLC Agreement, a Member, an Officer, or acting as the, Managing Member, Company Representative of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a member, director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another limited liability company or of a corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (a “Covered Person”), whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a member, director, officer, trustee, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a member, director, officer, trustee, employee or agent, against all expenses, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, XXXXX excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Covered Person in connection with such Proceeding. The Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable Law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Covered Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 7.4 or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses under this Section 7.4 shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to be a member, director, officer, trustee, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.4, except for Proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Company shall indemnify and advance expenses to a Covered Person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Covered Person only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Managing Member.

Section 7.5 Maintenance of Insurance or Other Financial Arrangements. In compliance with applicable Law, the Company (with the approval of the Managing Member) may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any Person who is or was a Member, employee or agent of the Company, or at the request of the Company is or was serving as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, for any Liability asserted against such Person and Liability and expenses incurred by such Person in such Person’s capacity as such, or arising out of such Person’s status as such, whether or not the Company has the authority to indemnify such Person against such Liability and expenses.

Section 7.6 Resignation or Termination of Managing Member. PubCo shall not, by any means, resign as, cease to be or be replaced as Managing Member except in compliance with this Section 7.6. No termination or replacement of PubCo as Managing Member shall be effective unless proper provision is made, in compliance with this Agreement, so that the obligations of PubCo, its successor (if applicable) and any new Managing Member and the rights of all Members under this Agreement and applicable Law remain in full force and effect. No appointment of a Person other than PubCo (or its successor, as applicable) as Managing Member shall be effective unless PubCo (or its successor, as applicable) and the new Managing Member (as applicable) provide all other Members with contractual rights, directly enforceable by such other Members against PubCo (or its successor, as applicable) and the new Managing Member (as applicable), to cause (a) PubCo to comply with all PubCo’s obligations under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 4.6) other than those that must necessarily be taken in its capacity as Managing Member and (b) the new Managing Member to comply with all the Managing Member’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 7.7 Reclassification Events of PubCo. If a Reclassification Event occurs, the Managing Member or its successor, as the case may be, shall, as and to the extent necessary, amend this Agreement in compliance with Section 12.1, and enter into any necessary supplementary or additional agreements, to ensure that, following the effective date of the Reclassification Event: (i) the redemption rights of holders of Units set forth in Section 4.6 provide that each Unit (together with the automatic transfer to PubCo of one share of Preferred Stock) is redeemable for the same amount and same type of property, securities or cash (or combination thereof) that one share of Common Stock becomes exchangeable for or converted into as a result of the Reclassification Event and (ii) PubCo or the successor to PubCo, as applicable, is obligated to deliver such property, securities or cash upon such redemption. PubCo shall not consummate or agree to consummate any Reclassification Event unless the successor Person, if any, becomes obligated to comply with the obligations of PubCo (in whatever capacity) under this Agreement.

Section 7.8 Certain Costs and Expenses. The Managing Member shall not be compensated for its services as the Managing Member of the Company except as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Company shall (i) pay, or cause to be paid, all costs, fees, operating expenses and other expenses of the Company (including the costs, fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants or other professionals and the compensation of all personnel providing services to the Company) incurred in pursuing and conducting, or otherwise related to, the activities of the Company and (ii) in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, reimburse the Managing Member for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees or expenses incurred by it in connection with serving as the Managing Member. To the extent that the Managing Member determines in its sole discretion that such expenses are related to the business and affairs of the Managing Member that are conducted through the Company and/or its Subsidiaries (including expenses that relate to the business and affairs of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and that also relate to other activities of the Managing Member), the Managing Member may cause the Company to pay or bear all expenses of the Managing Member, including, without limitation, costs of securities offerings not borne directly by Members, board of directors compensation and meeting costs, costs of periodic reports to its stockholders, litigation costs and damages arising from litigation, accounting and legal costs; provided that the Company shall not pay or bear any income tax obligations of the Managing Member. In the event that (i) shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities of PubCo were sold to underwriters in any public offering after the Subsequent Effective Time, in each case, at a price per share that is lower than the price per share for which such shares of Common Stock or other Equity Securities of PubCo are sold to the public in such public offering after taking into account underwriters’ discounts or commissions and

brokers’ fees or commissions (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any deferred discounts or commissions and brokers’ fees or commissions payable in connection with or as a result of such public offering) (such difference, the “Discount”) and (ii) the proceeds from such public offering are used to fund the Cash Election Amount for any redeemed Units or otherwise contributed to the Company, the Company shall reimburse the Managing Member for such Discount by treating such Discount as an additional Capital Contribution made by the Managing Member to the Company, issuing Units in respect of such deemed Capital Contribution in accordance with Section 4.6(b)(ii), and increasing the Managing Member’s Capital Account by the amount of such Discount. For the avoidance of doubt, any payments made to or on behalf of the Managing Member pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall not be treated as a distribution pursuant to Section 6.1(a) but shall instead be treated as an expense of the Company.

ARTICLE VIII.

ROLE OF MEMBERS

Section 8.1 Rights or Powers.

(a)

Other than the Managing Member, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Members, acting in their capacity as Members, shall not have any right or power to take part in the management or control of the Company or its business and affairs or to act for or bind the Company in any way. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members have all the rights and powers specifically set forth in this Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, in the Act. A Member, any Affiliate thereof or an employee, stockholder, agent, director or officer of a Member or any Affiliate thereof, may also be an employee or be retained as an agent of the Company. The existence of these relationships and acting in such capacities will not result in the Member (other than the Managing Member) being deemed to be participating in the control of the business of the Company or otherwise affect the limited liability of the Member. Except as specifically provided herein, a Member (other than the Managing Member) shall not, in its capacity as a Member, take part in the operation, management or control of the Company’s business, transact any business in the Company’s name or have the power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the Company.

(b)

The Company shall promptly (but in any event within three business days) notify the Members in writing if, to the Company’s knowledge, for any reason, it would be an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”), as amended. The Managing Member shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Company shall not be subject to registration as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act.

Section 8.2 Action by Written Consent or Ratification. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Members pursuant to this Agreement shall be taken if Members holding a majority of the Units whose consent or ratification is required consent thereto or provide a consent or ratification in writing. Any action required, required to be approved or permitted to be taken by the Managing Member pursuant to this Agreement may be taken or approved, as applicable, by the Managing Member acting pursuant to a writing which evidences its approval of or consent to such action.

Section 8.3 Various Capacities. The Members acknowledge and agree that the Members or their Affiliates will from time to time act in various capacities, including as a Member and as the Company Representative.

Section 8.4 Investment Opportunities. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to any Member (other than Members who are officers or employees of the Company, PubCo or any of their respective subsidiaries), any of their respective affiliates (other than the Company, the Managing Member or any of their respective subsidiaries), or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, members, and partners (each, a “Business Opportunities Exempt Party”). The Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business opportunities that are from time to time presented to any Business Opportunities Exempt Party. No Business Opportunities Exempt Party who acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or other matter that may be an opportunity for the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall have any duty to communicate or offer such opportunity to the Company. No amendment or repeal of this Section 8.4 shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any Business Opportunities Exempt Party for or with respect to any opportunities of which any such Business Opportunities Exempt Party becomes aware prior to such amendment or repeal. Any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any Units shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 8.4. Neither the alteration, amendment or repeal of this Section 8.4, nor the adoption of any provision of this Agreement inconsistent with this Section 8.4, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Section 8.4 in respect of any business opportunity first identified or any other matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Section 8.4, would accrue or arise, prior to such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption.

ARTICLE IX.

TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS

Section 9.1 Restrictions on Transfer.

(a)

Except as provided in Section 4.6 or any Transfer by a Member to a Permitted Transferee, no Member shall Transfer all or any portion of its Interest without the Managing Member’s prior written consent, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the Managing Member’s sole discretion. Any such determination in the Managing Member’s sole discretion shall be final and binding. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.1(a), all or any portion of a Member’s Interests are Transferred in violation of this Section 9.1(a), involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, then without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the other parties under this Agreement or otherwise, the Transferee of such Interest (or portion thereof) shall not be admitted to the Company as a Member or be entitled to any rights as a Member hereunder, and the Transferor will continue to be bound by all obligations hereunder, unless and until the Managing Member consents in

writing to such admission, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the Managing Member’s sole discretion. Any attempted or purported Transfer of all or a portion of a Member’s Interests in violation of this Section 9.1(a) shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect whatsoever. The restrictions on Transfer contained in this ARTICLE IX shall not apply to the Transfer of any capital stock of the Managing Member; provided that no shares of Preferred Stock may be Transferred unless a corresponding number of Units are Transferred therewith in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)

In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, including the provisions of this ARTICLE IX, in no event may any Transfer or assignment of Interests by any Member be made (i) to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own Interests; (ii) if such Transfer (A) would be considered to be effected on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof,” as such terms are used in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1, (B) would result in the Company having more than one hundred (100) partners, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(1) (determined taking into account the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)), or (C) would cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code or a successor provision or to be taxed as a corporation pursuant to the Code or successor of the Code; (iii) if such Transfer would cause the Company to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a “party-in-interest” (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code); (iv) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, cause any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to the Plan Asset Regulations or otherwise cause the Company to be subject to regulation under ERISA; (v) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Interests, pursuant to any applicable U.S. federal or state securities Laws; or (vi) if such Transfer subjects the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, each as amended (or any succeeding law). Any attempted or purported Transfer of all or a portion of a Member’s Interests in violation of this Section 9.1(b) shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect whatsoever.

Section 9.2 Notice of Transfer. Other than in connection with Transfers made pursuant to Section 4.6, each Member shall, after complying with the provisions of this Agreement, but in any event no later than three Business Days following any Transfer of Interests, give written notice to the Company of such Transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the Transfer.

Section 9.3 Transferee Members. A Transferee of Interests pursuant to this ARTICLE IX shall have the right to become a Member only if (i) the requirements of this ARTICLE IX are met, (ii) such Transferee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member agreeing to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and assuming all of the Transferor’s then existing and future Liabilities arising under or relating to this Agreement, (iii) such Transferee represents that the Transfer was made in accordance with all applicable

securities Laws, (iv) the Transferor or Transferee shall have reimbursed the Company for all reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any Transfer or proposed Transfer of a Member’s Interest, whether or not consummated and (v) if such Transferee or his or her spouse is a resident of a community property jurisdiction, then such Transferee’s spouse shall also execute an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member agreeing to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement to the extent of his or her community property or quasi-community property interest, if any, in such Member’s Interest. Unless agreed to in writing by the Managing Member, the admission of a Member shall not result in the release of the Transferor from any Liability that the Transferor may have to each remaining Member or to the Company under this Agreement or any other Contract between the Managing Member, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Transferor or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand. Written notice of the admission of a Member shall be sent promptly by the Company to each remaining Member. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, following a Transfer by one or more Members (or a transferee of the type described in this sentence) to a Permitted Transferee of all or substantially all of their Interests, such transferee shall succeed to all of the rights of such Member(s) under this Agreement; provided, that the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to apply to the Interests after any Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more Permitted Transfers to one or more Transferees and then disposing of all or any portion of any such party’s interest in such Transferee if such disposition would result in such Transferee ceasing to be a Permitted Transferee.

Section 9.4 Legend. Each certificate representing a Unit, if any, will be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
