SCHEDULE 5.10(i)
EXISTING LIENS ON BORROWERS PROPERTY OR ASSETS
As set forth in each of the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement of Beneficient Company Holdings, L.P. ( Holdings ), dated as of September 1, 2017 (the Holdings LPA), and the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement of the Borrower, dated as of September 1, 2017 (the Borrower LPA), each of the Class A Units (as defined in, and issued pursuant to, the Holdings LPA) tracks, on a one-to-one basis, the Common Units (as defined in, and issued pursuant to, the Borrower LPA). Section 5.6(d) of the Borrower LPA and Section 7.01(c) of the Holdings LPA provide that in the event that a Common Unit is redeemed or cancelled, a corresponding Class A Unit must be redeemed or cancelled to reflect the redemption or cancellation of such Common Unit. The Class A Unit may not be redeemed or cancelled until such Common Unit to which it tracks is first redeemed or cancelled, because the existence of such Class A Unit tracks the existence of the corresponding Common Unit. Thus, the Class A Units track to the Common Units of Borrower and therefore are encumbered by the Common Units.
