(i) the class I directors shall initially include one (1) CVC Director and one (1) LGP Director;

(ii) the class II directors shall initially include two (2) CVC Directors and two (2) LGP Directors; and

The initial term of the class I directors shall expire immediately following the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders at which directors are elected. The initial term of the class II directors shall expire immediately following the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders at which directors are elected. The initial term of the class III directors shall expire immediately following the Company’s 2021 annual meeting at which directors are elected.

(b) CVC Stockholder Representation. For so long as the CVC Stockholder holds, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock representing at least the percentages shown below of shares of Common Stock held in the aggregate by the CVC Stockholder as of the Closing of the IPO, the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take Necessary Action to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors at each applicable annual or special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected that number of individuals designated by the CVC Stockholder (each, a “CVC Stockholder Designee”) that, if elected, will result in the number of CVC Directors serving on the Board of Directors that is shown below.

3

Upon any decrease in the number of directors that the CVC Stockholder is entitled to designate for election to the Board of Directors, the CVC Stockholder shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the appropriate number of CVC Stockholder Designees to offer to tender his or her resignation. If such resignation is then accepted by the Board of Directors, the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall cause the size of the Board of Directors to be reduced accordingly unless the Company, with the approval of a majority of the remaining Directors, determines not to reduce the authorized size of the Board of Directors, in which case the Board of Directors shall act in accordance with the bylaws of the Company then in effect to appoint or nominate a new director to the Board of Directors.

(c) LGP Stockholders’ Representation. For so long as the LGP Stockholders hold, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock representing at least the percentages shown below of shares of Common Stock held in the aggregate by the LGP Stockholders as of the Closing of the IPO, the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take Necessary Action to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors at each applicable annual or special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected that number of individuals designated by the LGP Stockholders (each, a “LGP Stockholder Designee”) that, if elected, will result in the number of LGP Directors serving on the Board of Directors that is shown below.

(d) Additional Obligations. An individual designated by a Principal Stockholder for election (including pursuant to Sections 2.1(b) or 2.1(c)) as a Director shall comply with the requirements of the charter for, and related guidelines of, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article II, in the event that the Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that its nomination, appointment or election of a particular Board Designee pursuant to this Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders or does not otherwise comply with any requirements of the charter for, or related guidelines of, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, then the Board of Directors shall inform such Principal Stockholder of such determination in writing and explain in reasonable detail the basis for such determination and shall designate another individual designated for nomination, election or appointment to the Board of Directors by such Principal Stockholder (subject in each case to this Section 2.1(d)), and the Board of Directors and the Company shall take all of the actions required by this Article II with respect to the election of such substitute Board Designee. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the fact that a particular Board Designee is an Affiliate, director, professional, partner, member, manager, employee or agent of a Principal Stockholder or is not an independent director shall not in and of itself constitute an acceptable basis for such determination by the Board of Directors.

(e) Vacancies. Except as provided in Sections 2.1(b) and 2.1(c), as applicable, with respect to decreases in ownership of the Principal Stockholders, (i) each Principal Stockholder shall have the exclusive right to request the removal of its Board Designees from the Board of Directors in accordance with the bylaws of the Company then in effect, and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause the removal (whether for our without cause) of any such Board Designee at the request of the designating Principal Stockholder and (ii) each Principal Stockholder shall have the exclusive right to designate directors for election to the Board of Directors to fill vacancies (for the remainder of the then current term) created by reason of death, disability, removal or resignation of its Board Designees to the Board of Directors, and the Company and the Principal Stockholders shall take all Necessary Action to cause any such vacancies to be filled by replacement directors designated by such designating Principal Stockholder as promptly as reasonably practicable.

SECTION 2.2 Voting Agreement. Each Principal Stockholder agrees, in person or by proxy, to cast all votes to which such Principal Stockholder is entitled in respect of its Company Shares, whether at any annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, so as to cause to be elected to the Board of Directors those individuals designated in accordance with Section 2.1 and to otherwise effect the intent of this Article II.

SECTION 2.3 Agreement of Company. The Company hereby agrees that it will take all Necessary Actions to cause the matters addressed by this Article II to be carried out in accordance with the provisions thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secretary of the Company or such other officer or employee of the Company who may be fulfilling the duties of the Secretary, shall not record any vote or consent or other action contrary to the terms of this Article II.

SECTION 2.4 Restrictions on Other Agreements. No Principal Stockholder shall grant any proxy or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust, agreement or arrangement of any kind with any Person with respect to its Company Shares if and to the extent the terms thereof conflict with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such proxy, voting trust, agreements or arrangements are with other Principal Stockholders, holders of Company Shares that are not parties to this Agreement or otherwise).
