For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts relating to dividend equivalent rights, if any, that are accrued but unpaid under a 2022 Company PSU Award as of the First Effective Time shall be converted in accordance with the foregoing and remain subject to the same terms and conditions (including as to vesting and forfeiture) as were applicable under such 2022 Company PSU Award immediately prior to the First Effective Time.

(e) Prior to the First Effective Time, the Company Board and/or the Compensation Committee of the Company Board shall take such action and adopt such resolutions as are required to effectuate the treatment of the Company RSU Awards and the Company PSU Awards pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.4, and to take all actions reasonably required to effectuate any provision of this Section 3.4.

(a) Exchange Agent; Exchange Fund. Prior to the First Effective Time, New Parent shall, and Parent shall cause New Parent to, enter into an agreement with the Company’s transfer agent or such other Person acceptable to the Company to act as agent for the holders of Eligible Shares and Opco LLC Units in connection with the Company Merger and the Opco Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) and to receive the Company Merger Consideration and Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, and cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of fractional shares, pursuant to Section 3.7(i) to which such holders may become entitled pursuant to this Article III. At or prior to the First Effective Time, New Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the former holders of Eligible Shares, for issuance in accordance with this Article III through the Exchange Agent, the number of shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock and New Parent Class C Common Stock issuable to the holders of Eligible Class A Shares and Eligible Class B Shares, respectively, outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time pursuant to Section 3.1.

Parent, New Parent and Opco LP agree to make available to the Exchange Agent, from time to time as needed, cash sufficient to pay any dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 3.7(g) and to make payments in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.7(i). The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the applicable Merger Consideration contemplated to be issued in exchange for Eligible Shares and Opco LLC Units, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement out of the Exchange Fund. Except as contemplated by this Section 3.7(a) and Sections 3.7(g) and 3.7(i), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. Any cash, shares of New Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units deposited with the Exchange Agent (including as payment fractional shares in accordance with Section 3.7(i) and for any dividends or other distributions in accordance with Section 3.7(g)) shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund.” Parent, New Parent, Opco LP or the Bass Surviving Corporation shall pay all charges and expenses, including those of the Exchange Agent, in connection with the exchange of shares for the Company Merger Consideration and the Opco Merger Consideration. Any interest or other income resulting from investment of the cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall become part of the Exchange Fund.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) As soon as practicable after the Second Effective Time, but in no event more than two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date, New Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each record holder (A) as of immediately prior to the First Effective Time, of an outstanding certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the First Effective Time represented Eligible Shares (the “Certificates”), or (B) as of immediately prior to the Second Effective Time, of Opco LLC Units identified on the Opco Schedule a letter of transmittal (“Letter of Transmittal”) (which with respect to holders of

17

Certificates, 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 shall be in a customary form and agreed to by Parent and the Company prior to the Closing) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Opco LLC Units for delivery of the Company Merger Consideration or the Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, in each case as set forth in Section 3.1.

(ii) Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate, together with the Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other customary documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) one or more shares of the applicable New Parent Common Stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of the applicable New Parent Common Stock, if any, that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 (after taking into account all Eligible Shares then held by such holder) and (B) a check in the amount equal to the cash payable in lieu of any fractional shares of the applicable New Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and in respect of any dividends and other distributions payable pursuant to Section 3.7(g). Upon delivery by a holder of Opco LLC Units of a Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other customary documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Opco LLC Units shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) one or more Opco LP Units (which shall be in certificated form unless Opco LP and the Exchange Agent arrange for such Opco LP Units to be issued by book entry) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of Opco LP Units, if any, that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1 and (B) a check in the amount equal to the cash payable in lieu of any fractional Opco LP Units pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and in respect of any dividends and other distributions payable pursuant to Section 3.7(g). As promptly as practicable after the First Effective Time and in any event not later than the third Business Day thereafter, the Bass Surviving Corporation shall cause the Exchange Agent to issue and send to each holder of uncertificated Eligible Shares represented by book entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) (A) that number of whole shares of the applicable New Parent Common Stock to which such holder of Book-Entry Shares shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.1(b)(i) (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested by such holder) and (B) a check in the amount equal to the cash payable in lieu of any fractional shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and in respect of any dividends and other distributions payable pursuant to Section 3.7(g) without such holder being required to deliver a Certificate or an executed letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent, and such Book-Entry Shares shall then be cancelled. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates, Book-Entry Shares or Opco LLC Units on the Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, payable in respect of the Certificates, Book-Entry Shares or Opco LLC Units, as applicable. If delivery of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the record holder of such shares of Company Class A Common Stock, Company Class B Common

18

Stock or Opco LLC Units, it shall be a condition of delivery that shares of Company Class A Common Stock, Company Class B Common Stock or Opco LLC Units so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such delivery shall have paid any Transfer Taxes and other Taxes required by reason of the delivery of the Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, to a Person other than the registered holder of such shares surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of Parent that such Taxes either have been paid or are not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.7(b)(ii), each Certificate, each Book-Entry Share and each Opco LLC Unit shall be deemed at any time after the First Effective Time or Second Effective Time, as applicable, to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, deliverable in respect thereof, cash in lieu of any fractional shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or fractional Opco LP Units, as applicable, to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and in respect of any dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(g).

(c) Termination of Rights. (x) All Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, and (y) any dividends or other distributions with respect to New Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.7(g) and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.7(i), delivered or paid upon the surrender of and in exchange for Eligible Class A Shares, Eligible Class B Shares or Opco LLC Units, as applicable, in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Eligible Class A Shares, Eligible Class B Shares or Opco LLC Units, as applicable. At the First Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed immediately, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the shares of Company Class A Common Stock or Company Class B Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time. At the Second Effective Time, the transfer books of Opco LLC shall be closed immediately, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the transfer books of Opco LLC of the Opco LLC Units that were outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time. If, after the First Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for transfer, or transfer is sought for Book-Entry Shares, such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article III, subject to applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the former Company Stockholders and holders of Opco LLC Units on the 365^th day after the Closing Date shall be delivered to the Bass Surviving Corporation (in the case of Company Common Stock) or Opco Surviving Company (in the case of Opco LLC Units), as applicable, upon demand, and any former Company Stockholders or holders of Opco LLC Units who have not theretofore received the Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units, as applicable, to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and any dividends or other distributions with respect to New Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units, as applicable, to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(g), in each case without interest thereon, to which they are entitled under this Article III shall thereafter look only to the Bass Surviving Corporation, Opco LP and New Parent for payment of their claim for such amounts.

19

(e) No Liability. None of the Company, the Bass Surviving Corporation, the Snapper Surviving Corporation, the Opco Surviving Company, Parent, New Parent, Opco LP, Opco LLC, Snapper Merger Sub, Bass Merger Sub, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any Person for any portion of Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate or Opco LLC Unit has not been surrendered prior to the time that is immediately prior to the time at which Company Merger Consideration or Opco Merger Consideration, as applicable, in respect of such Certificate or Opco LLC Unit would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate or Opco LLC Unit shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent or Opco LP, as applicable, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate (other than a Certificate evidencing Excluded Company Shares) shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by the Bass Surviving Corporation or New Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as the Bass Surviving Corporation or New Parent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Company Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Company Class A Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(g).

(g) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock and Opco LP Units. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units with a record date after the First Effective Time or Second Effective Time, as applicable, shall be paid to (i) the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock that such holder would be entitled to receive upon surrender of such Certificate and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock shall be paid to any such holder, in each case until such holder shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Section 3.7 or (ii) the holder of any Opco LLC Units with respect to the whole Opco LP Units that such holder would be entitled to receive upon surrender of such Opco LLC Units and no cash payment in lieu of fractional Opco LP Units shall be paid to any such holder, in each case until such holder shall deliver to the Exchange Agent a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with this Section 3.7. Following surrender of any such Certificate or the delivery of a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal by a holder of Opco LLC Units, there shall be paid to such holder of whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or whole Opco LP Units issuable in exchange therefor, as applicable, without interest, (i) promptly after the time of such surrender or delivery, as applicable, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time or Second Effective Time, as applicable, theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or whole Opco LP Units, as applicable, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time or Second

20

Effective Time, as applicable, but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or whole Opco LP Units, as applicable. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units, all whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or Opco LP Units to be issued pursuant to the Parent Merger and the Opco Merger, respectively, shall be entitled to dividends pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if such whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock or whole Opco LP Units were issued and outstanding as of the First Effective Time or Second Effective Time, as applicable.

(h) Distributions with Respect to Exchanged Book-Entry Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, holders of Book-Entry Shares who are entitled to receive shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock under this Article III shall be paid (A) at the time of delivery of such New Parent Class A Common Stock by the Exchange Agent under Section 3.7(b), the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock, and the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of New Parent Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.7(i) and (B) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the First Effective Time but prior to the time of such delivery by the Exchange Agent under Section 3.7(b) and a payment date subsequent to the time of such delivery by the Exchange Agent under Section 3.7(b) payable with respect to such whole shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock.

(i) No Fractional Shares of New Parent Common Stock or Fractional Opco LP Units.

(i) No certificates or scrip or shares representing fractional shares of New Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, Book-Entry Shares or Opco LLC Units, as applicable, and such fractional share or unit interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of New Parent or a unitholder of Opco LP or a holder of Opco LP Units, as applicable.

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Eligible Shares exchanged pursuant to the Company Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a New Parent Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such fraction as determined below. As promptly as practicable following the First Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall determine the excess of (i) the number of full shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock delivered to the Exchange Agent by Parent for issuance to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares over (ii) the aggregate number of full shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock to be distributed to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares (such excess being herein referred to as the “Excess Shares”). As soon as practicable after the First Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for such holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, shall sell the Excess Shares at then prevailing prices on the NYSE, all in the manner provided herein.

21

(iii) The sale of the Excess Shares by the Exchange Agent shall be executed on the NYSE and shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the net proceeds of any such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of applicable Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, the Exchange Agent shall hold such proceeds in trust for such holders. The net proceeds of any such sale or sales of Excess Shares to be distributed to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be reduced by any and all commissions, transfer taxes and other out-of-pocket transaction costs, as well as any expenses, of the Exchange Agent incurred in connection with such sale or sales. The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of such net proceeds to which each holder of applicable Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate net proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional share interest to which such holder of applicable Certificates or Book-Entry Shares is entitled (after taking into account all applicable Certificates and Book-Entry Shares then held by such holder) and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional share interests to which all holders of applicable Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are entitled. As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of applicable Certificates or Book-Entry Shares with respect to any fractional share interests, the Exchange Agent shall promptly pay such amounts to such holders subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.7(i). The payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares of New Parent Common Stock is not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding-off of the fractions in the exchange contemplated by this Article III.

(iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Opco LLC Units exchanged pursuant to the Opco Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of an Opco LP Unit (after taking into account all Opco LLC Units delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to the product of (i) such fractional part of an Opco LP Unit multiplied by (ii) the volume weighted average price of Parent Class A Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Closing Date as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. As promptly as practicable after the determination of the amount of such cash, if any, to be paid to the holders of fractional interests, the Exchange Agent shall so notify Opco LP, and Opco LP shall cause the Exchange Agent to forward payments to such holders of fractional interests subject to and in accordance with the terms hereof.

(v) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any holder of Company Class B Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of New Parent Class C Common Stock (after taking into account all Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder), such fraction of a share of New Parent Class C Common Stock shall be canceled, and such holder shall not be entitled to any additional consideration in exchange for such fractional share of New Parent Class C Common Stock. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any such fractional shares of New Parent Class C Common Stock have no fair value for purposes of Section 155 of the DGCL.

22

(j) Withholding Taxes.

(i) New Parent, Parent, the Snapper Surviving Corporation, the Company, the Bass Surviving Corporation, Opco LP, the Opco Surviving Company, Opco LLC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable to any holder of Eligible Shares, Opco LLC Units or Company Stock Awards pursuant to this Agreement any amount required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under applicable Law (and to the extent deduction and withholding is required, such deduction and withholding may be taken in New Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units). To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the relevant Taxing Authority by New Parent, Parent, the Snapper Surviving Corporation, the Company, the Bass Surviving Corporation, Opco LP, the Opco Surviving Company, Opco LLC and the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Eligible Shares, Opco LLC Units or Company Stock Awards to whom such amounts would have been paid absent such deduction or withholding by New Parent, Parent, the Snapper Surviving Corporation, the Company, the Bass Surviving Corporation, Opco LP, the Opco Surviving Company, Opco LLC and the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

(ii) Opco LLC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to New Parent and Opco LP at or prior to the Closing a properly executed certificate of non-foreign status or IRS Form W-9 meeting the requirements of Code Sections 1445 and 1446(f) (and the applicable regulations thereunder), in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent and Opco LP, with respect to itself and each holder of Opco LLC Units.

(k) Exchange of Parent Common Stock. Each Parent Certificate immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall, from and after the First Effective Time and as a result of the Parent Merger, represent an equivalent number of shares of applicable New Parent Common Stock. At the First Effective Time, New Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to credit in the stock ledger and other appropriate books and records of New Parent an equivalent number of shares of applicable New Parent Common Stock for any uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock (other than any Excluded Parent Shares); provided, however, that if an exchange of Parent Certificates for new certificates is required by Law or applicable rule or regulation, or is desired at any time by New Parent, in its sole discretion, New Parent shall arrange for such exchange on a one-for-one-share basis. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the First Effective Time, the former holders of Parent Class A Common Stock, which has been converted into New Parent Class A Common Stock at the First Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive any dividends and distributions which may be made with respect to such shares of New Parent Class A Common Stock.

3.8 Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Class B Common Stock and Parent Class C Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time that are held by any holder who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (“Dissenting Shares”) shall be treated in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall serve prompt notice to Parent of any demands for appraisal of any shares of

23

Company Class B Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by the Company relating to rights to appraisal, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and Proceedings with respect to such demands. Parent shall serve prompt notice to the Company of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Parent Class C Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices or demands and any other instruments received by the Company relating to rights to appraisal, and the Company shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and Proceedings with respect to such demands. Neither the Company nor Parent, without the prior written consent of the other, shall make any payment with respect to, settle or offer to settle, or approve any withdrawal of any such demands. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) no dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Company Class A Common Stock, Parent Class A Common Stock or with respect to the Opco LLC Units and, (b) as such, appraisal rights shall be limited to an appraisal, pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, solely of the fair value of the Company Class B Common Stock or Parent Class C Common Stock, as applicable.

Each Company Party and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified and in good standing to do business in each jurisdiction in which the business it is conducting, or the operation, ownership or leasing of its properties, makes such qualification necessary, other than where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company (a “Company Material Adverse Effect”).

The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed, on a current basis, with respect to the status and material terms of any such Company Competing Proposal and any material changes to the status of any such discussions or negotiations (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such material change).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company, directly or indirectly through one or more of its Representatives, may:

(i) after consultation with its outside legal counsel, make such customary disclosures as the Company Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith are necessary to comply with Rule 14e-2(a), Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A and Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, to the extent applicable, or other applicable federal securities Laws, so long as, in each case, any action taken or statement made to so comply is consistent with this Section 6.3;

67

(ii) prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, engage in the activities prohibited by Sections 6.3(b)(ii) and 6.3(b)(iii) with any Person who has made after the date hereof a written, unsolicited bona fide Company Competing Proposal (which has not resulted from a violation of this Section 6.3); provided, however, that (A) no non-public information that is prohibited from being furnished pursuant to Section 6.3(b) may be furnished until the Company receives an executed confidentiality agreement from such Person containing limitations on the disclosure of non-public information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company that are no less favorable to the Company in the aggregate than the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, as determined by the Company Board in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel; provided, further, that such confidentiality agreement does not contain provisions that prohibit the Company from complying with the provisions of this Section 6.3; provided, further, that prior to or concurrent with (or in the case of oral communications only, promptly after) providing any non-public information to such Person, the Company shall make such non-public information available to Parent (to the extent such non-public information has not been previously made available by the Company to Parent) and (B) prior to taking any such actions, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Company Competing Proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Company Superior Proposal;

(iii) prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, in response to a Company Competing Proposal (which has not resulted from a violation of this Section 6.3), if the Company Board so chooses, cause the Company to effect a Company Change of Recommendation or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d), if prior to taking such action (A) the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel that such Company Competing Proposal is a Company Superior Proposal (taking into account any adjustment to the terms and conditions of the Mergers proposed by Parent in response to such Company Competing Proposal), (B) the Company shall have given notice to Parent that the Company has received such proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such proposal, and, that the Company intends to take such action, (C) during the period ending on the earlier to occur of one (1) Business Day prior to the scheduled time for the Company Stockholders Meeting and the fourth Business Day after the date on which such notice is given to Parent, the Company shall have made its Representatives reasonably available for the purpose of engaging in good faith negotiations with Parent (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) regarding a possible amendment of this Agreement or a possible alternative transaction so that the Company Competing Proposal that is the subject of the Company Superior Proposal ceases to be a Company Superior Proposal, and (D) within the period described in the foregoing clause (C), either (1) Parent shall not have proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or (2) if Parent shall have proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Company, the Company Board, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, shall have determined in

68

good faith that (x) the Company Competing Proposal remains a Company Superior Proposal with respect to Parent’s revised proposal and (y) failing to make Company Change of Recommendation and/or enter into such Company Competing Proposal would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with Company Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company Stockholders under applicable Law; provided, however, that each time material modifications to the financial terms of a Company Competing Proposal determined to be a Company Superior Proposal are made the time period set forth in clause (C) prior to which the Company may effect a Company Change of Recommendation or terminate this Agreement shall be extended for twenty-four (24) hours after notification of such change to Parent; and

(iv) prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, (A) seek clarification from (but not engage in negotiations with or provide non-public information to) any Person that has made a Company Competing Proposal (which has not resulted from a violation of this Section 6.3) solely to clarify and understand the terms and conditions of such proposal to provide adequate information for the Company Board to make an informed determination under Section 6.3(d)(ii) and (B) inform such Person or its Representative of the restrictions imposed by the provisions of this Section 6.3 (without conveying, requesting or attempting to gather any other information except as otherwise specifically permitted hereunder).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, prior to receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval, in response to a Company Intervening Event that occurs or arises after the date of this Agreement, the Company may, if the Company Board so chooses, effect a Company Change of Recommendation if prior to taking such action (i) the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations to Company Stockholders under applicable Law, (ii) the Company shall have given notice to Parent that the Company has determined that a Company Intervening Event has occurred or arisen (which notice will reasonably describe such Company Intervening Event) and that the Company intends to effect a Company Change of Recommendation, and either (A) Parent shall not have proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement prior to the earlier to occur of the scheduled time for the Company Stockholders Meeting and the fifth Business Day after the date on which such notice is given to Parent, or (B) if Parent within the period described in the foregoing clause (A) shall have proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in a manner that would form a binding contract if accepted by the Company, the Company Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, shall have determined in good faith that such proposed changes do not obviate the need for the Company Board to effect a Company Change of Recommendation and that the failure to make a Company Change of Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations to Company Stockholders under applicable Law.

(f) Notwithstanding (i) any Company Change of Recommendation, (ii) the making of any Company Competing Proposal or (iii) anything in this Agreement to the contrary but without limiting the Company’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1(d), until termination of this Agreement (x) in no event may the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (A) enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership

69

agreement or other similar instrument constituting or relating to a Company Competing Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement in accordance with Section 6.3(d)(ii)), and (y) the Company shall otherwise remain subject to all of its obligations under this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the obligation to hold the Company Stockholder Meeting.

6.4 [Reserved].

6.5 Preparation of Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus and Registration Statement.

(a) Parent will promptly furnish to the Company such data and information relating to it, its Subsidiaries (including New Parent, Opco LP, Bass Merger Sub, Snapper Merger Sub and Opco Merger Sub LLC) and the holders of its capital stock, as the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of including such data and information in the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto used by the Company to obtain the adoption by the Company Stockholders of this Agreement. The Company will promptly furnish to Parent such data and information relating to it, its Subsidiaries (including Opco LLC) and the holders of its capital stock, as Parent may reasonably request for the purpose of including such data and information in the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto.

(b) Promptly following the date hereof, the Company and Parent shall cooperate in preparing and Parent shall cause New Parent to file with the SEC a mutually acceptable Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus relating to the Mergers and the other Transactions, and Parent shall cause New Parent to prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement (of which the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be a part). The Company and Parent shall each use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement and the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff. Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as soon after such filing as practicable and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Mergers. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the clearance of the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus by the SEC and the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, each of Parent and the Company will cause the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be filed in definitive form with the SEC and transmitted to the holders of Parent Common Stock and Company Common Stock, respectively. Each of the Company and Parent will advise the other promptly after it receives any request by the SEC for amendment of the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement or comments thereon and responses thereto or any request by the SEC for additional information. Each of the Company and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause all documents that it is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the Transactions to comply as to form and substance in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or mailing the Joint Consent

70

Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, each of the Company and Parent will (i) provide the other with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (including the proposed final version of such document or response), (ii) shall include in such document or response all comments reasonably proposed by the other and (iii) shall not file or mail such document or respond to the SEC prior to receiving the approval of the other, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) New Parent, Parent and the Company shall make all necessary filings with respect to the Mergers and the other Transactions under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and applicable “blue sky” laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Each Party will advise the other, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, the issuance of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of the New Parent Class A Common Stock, New Parent Class C Common Stock or Opco LP Units issuable in connection with the Mergers for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. Each of the Company and Parent will use reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated.

(d) If at any time prior to the First Effective Time, any information relating to Parent or the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Parent or the Company that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus, so that such documents would not include 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 which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the Company Stockholders and the Parent Stockholders.

6.6 Requisite Approvals. In connection with and substantially concurrently with the Post-Signing Transactions, (i) Parent shall duly approve and adopt this Agreement in its capacity as the sole stockholder of New Parent in accordance with applicable Law and the Organizational Documents of New Parent, and deliver to the Company evidence of its vote or action by written consent so approving and adopting this Agreement and the Transactions on behalf of New Parent, (ii) the Board of Directors of Snapper Merger Sub shall approve, adopt and declare advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Parent Merger, (iii) the Board of Directors of Bass Merger Sub shall approve, adopt and declare advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Company Merger and (iv) New Parent shall duly approve and adopt this Agreement in its capacity as the sole stockholder of each of Bass Merger Sub and Snapper Merger Sub in accordance with applicable Law and the Organizational Documents of Bass Merger Sub and Snapper Merger Sub, respectively, and deliver to the Company evidence of its vote or action by written consent so approving and adopting this Agreement and the Transactions on behalf of each of Snapper Merger Sub and Bass Merger Sub,.

6.7 Company Stockholders Meeting; Parent Consent Solicitation.

(a) The Company shall take all action necessary in accordance with applicable Laws and the Organizational Documents of the Company to duly give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval, to be held as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than 45 days) following the clearance of the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus by the SEC. Except as permitted by Section 6.3, the Company Board shall recommend that the Company Stockholders vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement at the Company Stockholders Meeting and the Company Board shall solicit from Company Stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, and the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include a statement to the effect that the Company Board has made the Company Board Recommendation. Without limiting the right of the Company Board to effect a Company Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 6.3, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval and otherwise comply with all applicable Law with respect to such meeting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company (i) shall be required to adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting (A) to the extent necessary to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus is provided to Company Stockholders or (B) if, as of the time for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct business at such Company Stockholders Meeting and (ii) may adjourn or postpone the Company Stockholders Meeting if, as of the time for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval; provided, however, that unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, the Company Stockholders Meeting shall not be adjourned or postponed to a date that is less than five (5) Business Days and more than ten (10) Business Days after the date for which the meeting was previously scheduled (it being understood that such Company Stockholders Meeting shall be adjourned or postponed every time the circumstances described in the foregoing clauses (i)(A) and (i)(B) exist, and such Company Stockholders Meeting may be adjourned or postponed every time the circumstances described in the foregoing clause (ii) exist); and provided further that the Company Stockholders Meeting shall not be adjourned or postponed to a date on or after two (2) Business Days prior to the End Date. If requested by Parent, the Company shall promptly provide all voting tabulation reports relating to the Company Stockholders Meeting that have been prepared by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent, proxy solicitor or other Representative, and shall otherwise keep Parent reasonably informed regarding the status of the solicitation and any material oral or written communications from or to Company Stockholders with respect thereto. Unless there has been a Company Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 6.3, the Parties agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against any efforts by any of the Company Stockholders or any other Person to prevent the Company Stockholder Approval from being obtained. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless this Agreement is terminated prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting, this Agreement, the Mergers and the other Transactions shall be submitted to Company Stockholders at the Company Stockholders Meeting whether or not a Company Change of Recommendation shall have occurred.

72

(b) Parent shall take all action necessary in accordance with applicable Laws and the Organizational Documents of Parent to cause the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be mailed to Parent Stockholders, to seek the Parent Stockholder Approval via written consent and to take such other actions as may be required by applicable Law and the Organizational Documents of Parent and its Subsidiaries to obtain the Parent Stockholder Approval via written consent as promptly as reasonably practicable following the clearance of the Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus by the SEC and the time the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. The Joint Consent Solicitation Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus shall include a statement to the effect that the Parent Board has made the Parent Board Recommendation; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval, (i) nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent or the Parent Board from making any disclosures that it determines in good faith are necessary to comply with Rule 14e-2(a), Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A and Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act, to the extent applicable, or other applicable federal securities Laws and (ii) the Parent Board shall be permitted to change or withdraw the Parent Board Recommendation, but, in the case of clause (ii), solely to the extent the Parent Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary obligations to Parent Stockholders under applicable Law; provided, further, however, that in no event shall any such disclosure, change or withdrawal (x) affect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement or the Support Agreements, including the Parties’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Mergers, or the Supporting Stockholders’ obligations to deliver (or cause to be delivered) the written consent contemplated by the Support Agreements, or (y) cause any state corporate takeover statute or other similar statute to be applicable to the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.8 Access to Information.

(a) Each Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, afford to the other Party and its Representatives, during the period prior to the earlier of the First Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of Section 8.1 of this Agreement, reasonable access, at reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice, to the officers, key employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities of such Party and its Subsidiaries and to their books, records, contracts and documents and shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, furnish reasonably promptly to the other Party and its Representatives such information concerning its and its Subsidiaries’ business, properties, contracts, records and personnel as may be reasonably requested, from time to time, by or on behalf of the other Party. Each Party and its Representatives shall conduct any such activities in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the other Party or its Subsidiaries or otherwise cause any unreasonable interference with the prompt and timely discharge by the employees of the other Party and its Subsidiaries of their normal duties. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.8(a), each Party

73

shall not be required to, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries to, grant access or furnish information to the other Party or any of its Representatives to the extent that such information is subject to an attorney/client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine or that such access or the furnishing of such information is prohibited by applicable Law or an existing contract or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party shall not have access to personnel records of the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information that in the other Party’s good faith opinion the disclosure of which could subject the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries to risk of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party shall not be permitted to conduct any sampling or analysis of any environmental media or building materials at any facility of the other Party or its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the other Party, which may be granted or withheld in the other Party’s sole discretion. Each Party agrees that it will not, and will cause its Representatives not to, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.8(a) for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the Transactions.

(b) The Confidentiality Agreement dated as of June 8, 2022, between Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall apply to all information furnished thereunder or hereunder.

6.9 HSR and Other Approvals.

(a) Except for the filings and notifications made pursuant to Antitrust Laws to which Sections 6.9(b) and (c), and not this Section 6.9(a), shall apply, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Parties shall proceed to prepare and file with the appropriate Governmental Entities all authorizations, consents, notifications, certifications, registrations, declarations and filings that are necessary in order to consummate the Transactions and shall diligently and expeditiously prosecute, and shall cooperate fully with each other in the prosecution of, such matters.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, the Parties shall make any filings required under the HSR Act. As promptly as reasonably practicable, the Parties shall make the filings and notifications as may be required by foreign competition Laws and merger regulations (the “Competition Law Notifications”). Each of Parent and the Company shall cooperate fully with each other and shall furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of any filings under any applicable Antitrust Laws. Unless otherwise agreed, Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to ensure the prompt expiration of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act or any Competition Law Notifications. Parent and the Company shall each use its reasonable best efforts to respond to and comply with any request for information from any Governmental Entity charged with enforcing, applying, administering, or investigating the HSR Act, any Competition Law Notifications or any other Law designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions for the purpose or effect of mergers, monopolization, restraining trade or abusing a dominant position (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”), including the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, any attorney general of any state of the United States or any other competition authority of any jurisdiction (“Antitrust Authority”). Parent and the Company shall keep each other apprised of the status of any

74

communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from any Antitrust Authority. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of Parent and the Company shall (i) promptly notify the other of any substantive communication made or received by Parent or the Company, as applicable, with any Antitrust Authority relating to Antitrust Laws (or any other Competition Law Notifications) and regarding this Agreement or the Transaction, (ii) provide the other party reasonable opportunity to review in advance any proposed written communication to any such Antitrust Authority and incorporate such other party’s reasonable comments to such proposed written communication, (iii) not agree to participate in any in-person meeting or substantive discussion with any Antitrust Authority in respect of any Competition Law Notification, investigation, filing or inquiry regarding this Agreement or any of the Transactions without advance consultation and, to the extent permitted, opportunity to attend or participate, and (iii) promptly furnish the other party with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications with such Antitrust Authority in respect of this Agreement and the Transactions.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve, avoid, or eliminate impediments or objections, if any, that may be asserted by any Antitrust Authority with respect to the Transactions so as to enable the Mergers to occur prior to the End Date; provided that nothing in this Section 6.9 or anything else in this Agreement shall require Parent or any of its Affiliates to (and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, or shall offer or agree to, do any of the following without Parent’s prior written consent): (i) selling or otherwise disposing of, or holding separate and agreeing to sell or otherwise dispose of, assets, categories of assets or businesses of the Company or Parent or their respective Subsidiaries; (ii) terminating existing relationships, contractual rights or obligations of the Company or Parent or their respective Subsidiaries; (iii) terminating any venture or other arrangement; (iv) creating any relationship, contractual rights or obligations of the Company or Parent or their respective Subsidiaries or (v) effectuating any other change or restructuring of the Company or Parent or their respective Subsidiaries (and, in each case, to enter into agreements or stipulate to the entry of an order or decree or file appropriate applications with any Antitrust Authority in connection with any of the foregoing and in the case of actions by or with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or its or their businesses or assets) (any of the actions described in this proviso, a “Divestiture Action”). Unless mutually agreed by the Company and Parent, neither the Company nor Parent, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall take or agree to take any Divestiture Action. Parent shall be entitled to direct any Proceedings with any Antitrust Authority or other Person relating to any of the foregoing, provided, however, that it shall afford the Company a reasonable opportunity to participate therein. In addition, but subject to the preceding sentences, in the event that any permanent or preliminary injunction or other order is entered or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered in any Proceeding that would make consummation of the Transactions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unlawful or that would restrain, enjoin or otherwise prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, Parent shall take promptly any and all reasonable steps necessary to vacate, modify or suspend such injunction or order so as to permit such consummation prior to the End Date. The Parties shall take reasonable efforts to share information protected from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, joint defense privilege or any other privilege pursuant to this Section 6.9 so as to preserve any applicable privilege.

75

(d) The Company, Opco LLC, Parent, New Parent, Opco LP, Bass Merger Sub, Snapper Merger Sub and Opco Merger Sub shall not take any action that could reasonably be expected to hinder or delay the obtaining of clearance or the expiration of the required waiting period under the HSR Act, any Competition Law Notifications or any other applicable Antitrust Law.

6.10 Employee Matters.

(a) For a period of twenty four (24) months following the Closing, Parent shall cause each individual who is employed as of immediately prior to the Closing by the Company or a Subsidiary thereof (a “Company Employee”) and who remains employed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Bass Surviving Corporation, the Opco Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries) to be provided with (i) base compensation (salary or wage, as applicable) and an annual cash bonus target opportunity (as applicable) that is no less favorable than that in effect for such Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing (and the annual cash bonus, if any, earned by such Company Employees shall be determined on a comparable basis to similarly situated employees of Parent) and (ii) employee benefits (including retirement plan participation) and incentive compensation opportunities that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those in effect for such Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) With respect to each Employee Benefit Plan maintained by New Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Bass Surviving Corporation, the Opco Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries) in which any of the Company Employees participate following the Closing (as applicable, the “Company Employee Benefit Plans”), the Company Employees shall be given credit for all purposes under the Company Employee Benefit Plans (other than with respect to any “defined benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA, retiree medical benefits or disability benefits or to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits) in which the Company Employees participate, for such Company Employees’ service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, including vesting, eligibility and benefit accrual purposes, to the same extent and for the same purposes that such service was taken into account under a corresponding Company Plan immediately prior to the Closing.

(c) From and after the Closing, as applicable, Parent shall, or shall cause the Bass Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, to take commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive any limitation on health and welfare coverage of any Company Employee and his or her eligible dependents due to pre-existing conditions and/or waiting periods, active employment requirements and requirements to show evidence of good health under the applicable health and welfare Company Plan to the extent such Company Employee and his or her eligible dependents are covered under a Company Plan immediately prior to the Closing, and such conditions, periods or requirements are satisfied or waived under such Employee Benefit Plan of the Company and (ii) give each Company Employee credit for the plan year in which the Closing occurs towards applicable deductibles and annual out-of-pocket limits for medical expenses incurred prior to the Closing for which payment has been made, in each case, to the extent permitted by the applicable insurance plan provider.

(d) From and after the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause the Bass Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries, to honor their respective contractual obligations under all employment, severance, change in control and other similar agreements, if any, between the Company (or a Subsidiary thereof) and a Company Employee.

76

(e) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall take all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to terminate, as of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company’s participation in the 401(k) plan (the “Company 401(k) Plan”). The Company shall provide Parent with evidence that such participation in the Company 401(k) Plan has been terminated (the form and substance of which shall be subject to review and reasonable comment by Parent) not later than two Business Days immediately preceding the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not terminate its participation in the Company 401(k) Plan if, not later than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Parent requests that the Company not terminate its participation in the Company 401(k) Plan.

The provisions of this Section 6.10 are for the sole benefit of the Parties and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or will be construed to confer upon or give to any Person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Company Employee or other current or former employee of the Company or any of their respective Affiliates), other than the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies (including with respect to the matters provided for in this Section 6.10) under or by reason of any provision of this Agreement.

6.11 Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) Without limiting any other rights that any Indemnified Person may have pursuant to any employment agreement or indemnification agreement in effect on the date hereof or otherwise, for six (6) years after the applicable Effective Time, Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of this Agreement or who becomes prior to the applicable Effective Time, a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or who acts as a fiduciary under any Company Plan or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Persons”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, fines, penalties, expenses (including attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses), liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement, of or incurred in connection with any threatened or actual Proceeding to which such Indemnified Person is a party or is otherwise involved (including as a witness) based, in whole or in part, on or arising, in whole or in part, out of the fact that such Person is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, a fiduciary under any Company Plan or any of its Subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, Employee Benefit Plan, trust or other enterprise or by reason of anything done or not done by such Person in any such capacity, whether pertaining to any act or omission occurring or existing prior to, at or after the applicable Effective Time and whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the applicable Effective Time (“Indemnified Liabilities”), including all Indemnified Liabilities based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to, this Agreement or the Transactions, in each case to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law (and Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall, jointly and severally, pay expenses incurred in connection therewith in advance of the final disposition of any such Proceeding to each Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, in the event any such Proceeding is brought or threatened to be brought against any Indemnified Persons (whether arising before or after the applicable Effective Time), each of Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall use its best efforts to assist in the defense of any such matter. Any Indemnified Person wishing to claim indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.11, upon learning of any such Proceeding, shall notify Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company (but the failure so to notify shall not relieve a Party from any obligations that it may have under this Section 6.11 except to the extent

78

such failure materially prejudices such Party’s position with respect to such claims). With respect to any determination of whether any Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification by Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company under this Section 6.11, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to require that such determination be made by special, independent legal counsel selected by the Indemnified Person and approved by Parent or the Bass Surviving Corporation, as applicable (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and who has not otherwise performed material services for Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Indemnified Person within the last three (3) years. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.11 to the contrary, if any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.11 is made by an Indemnified Person prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the Proceeding to which such Indemnified Person is a party or is otherwise involved and such Proceeding is continuing as of such date, then such Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.11 until the final disposition of such Proceeding.

(b) For six (6) years after the applicable Effective Time, Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any provision in the Organizational Documents of the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company in any manner that would affect (or manage the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company or their respective Subsidiaries, with the intent to or in a manner that would) adversely the rights thereunder or under the Organizational Documents of the Bass Surviving Corporation, the Opco Surviving Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Indemnified Person to indemnification, exculpation and advancement except to the extent required by applicable Law. Parent shall, and shall cause the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company to, fulfill and honor any indemnification, expense advancement or exculpation agreements between the Company or Opco LLC or any of their respective Subsidiaries and any of directors, officers or employees of the Company or Opco LLC existing immediately prior to the applicable Effective Time.

(c) Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall indemnify any Indemnified Person against all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), such amounts to be payable in advance upon request as provided in Section 6.11(a), relating to the enforcement of such Indemnified Person’s rights under this Section 6.11 or under any charter, bylaw or contract regardless of whether such Indemnified Person is ultimately determined to be entitled to indemnification hereunder or thereunder.

(d) Unless otherwise agreed between Parent and the Company prior to Closing, Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company will cause to be put in place, and Parent shall fully prepay immediately prior to the Closing, “tail” insurance policies (collectively, the “D&O Tail Policy”) with a claims period of at least six (6) years from the First Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an amount and scope at least as favorable as the Company’s existing policies with respect to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the First Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event shall Parent be required to expend for the D&O Tail Policy an aggregate premium amount in excess of 300% of the premium amount per annum for the Company and its Subsidiaries’ existing insurance coverage; provided, further, that if the aggregate premium amount for the D&O Tail Policy exceeds such amount, the Company shall obtain a D&O Tail Policy for the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Closing, for a cost not exceeding such amount.

79

(e) In the event that Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assignees (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.11. Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall not sell, transfer, distribute or otherwise dispose of any of their assets in a manner that would reasonably be expected to render Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation or the Opco Surviving Company unable to satisfy their obligations under this Section 6.11. The provisions of this Section 6.11 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Parties and each Person entitled to indemnification or insurance coverage or expense advancement pursuant to this Section 6.11, and his heirs and Representatives. The rights of the Indemnified Persons under this Section 6.11 are in addition to any rights such Indemnified Persons may have under the Organizational Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or under any applicable contracts or Law. Parent, the Bass Surviving Corporation and the Opco Surviving Company shall pay all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified Person in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 6.11.

6.12 Agreement to Defend; Stockholder Litigation. In the event any Proceeding by any Governmental Entity or other Person is commenced that questions the validity or legality of the Transactions or seeks damages in connection therewith, the Parties agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against and respond thereto.

6.13 Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties will not, and each of the foregoing will cause its Representatives not to, issue any public announcements or make other public disclosures regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, without the prior written approval of the Parties; provided, however, that a Party, its Subsidiaries or their Representatives may issue a public announcement or other public disclosures required by applicable Law or the rules of any stock exchange upon which such Party’s or its Subsidiary’s capital stock is traded, provided such Party uses reasonable best efforts to afford the other Party an opportunity to first review the content of the proposed disclosure and provide reasonable comment regarding same; provided, however, that no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict in any manner the Company’s ability to communicate with its employees and that the Company shall not be required by any provision of this Agreement to consult with or obtain any approval from any other Party with respect to a public announcement or press release issued in connection with the receipt and existence of a Company Competing Proposal and matters related thereto or a Company Change of Recommendation other than as set forth in Section 6.3.

6.16 Transfer Taxes. Except as provided in Section 3.7(b)(ii), all Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the Transactions, if any, shall be paid by Parent when due, whether levied on Parent or any another Person, and Parent shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to any such Transfer Taxes; provided that, such payment shall be funded with a distribution from Opco LP.

The provisions of Section 6.8(b), 8.2, 8.3, Article I and Article IX shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 8.1.

9.4 Rules of Construction.

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel of its choice throughout all negotiations that have preceded the execution of this Agreement and that it has executed the same with the advice of said independent counsel. Each Party and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto exchanged between the Parties shall be deemed the work product of the Parties and may not be construed against any Party by reason of its preparation. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against any Party that drafted it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived.

(b) The inclusion of any information in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself and solely by virtue of the inclusion of such information in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter, as applicable, that such information is required to be listed in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter, as applicable, that such items are material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as the case may be, or that such items have resulted in a Company Material Adverse Effect or a Parent Material Adverse Effect. The headings, if any, of the individual sections of each of the Parent Disclosure Letter and Company Disclosure Letter are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part thereof or a part of this Agreement. The Company Disclosure Letter and Parent Disclosure Letter are arranged in sections corresponding to the Sections of this Agreement merely for convenience, and the disclosure of an item in one section of the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter, as applicable, as an exception to a particular representation or warranty shall be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to all other representations or warranties to the extent that the relevance of such item to such representations or warranties is reasonably apparent from such item, notwithstanding the presence or absence of an appropriate section of the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter with respect to such other representations or warranties or an appropriate cross reference thereto.

(c) The specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties or otherwise in this Agreement or in the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter is not intended and shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment of the materiality of such amounts or items, nor shall the same be used in any dispute or controversy between the Parties to determine whether any obligation, item or matter (whether or not described herein or included in any schedule) is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) All references in this Agreement to Annexes, Exhibits, Schedules, Articles, Sections, subsections and other subdivisions refer to the corresponding Annexes, Exhibits, Schedules, Articles, Sections, subsections and other subdivisions of this Agreement unless expressly provided otherwise. Titles appearing at the beginning of any Articles, Sections, subsections or other subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience only, do not constitute any part of such Articles, Sections, subsections or other subdivisions, and shall be disregarded in construing the language contained therein. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and “hereof” and words of similar import, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not

93

to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The words “this Section,” “this subsection” and words of similar import, refer only to the Sections or subsections hereof in which such words occur. The word “including” (in its various forms) means “including, without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine or neuter genders shall be construed to state and include any other gender and words, terms and titles (including terms defined herein) in the singular form shall be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise expressly requires. Unless the context otherwise requires, all defined terms contained herein shall include the singular and plural and the conjunctive and disjunctive forms of such defined terms.

9.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, including via facsimile or email in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form transmission, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when two (2) or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart.

9.6 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter, the Parent Disclosure Letter and any other documents and instruments executed pursuant hereto) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except for the provisions of Article III and Section 6.11 (which from and after the applicable Effective Time are intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Persons referred to therein and by their respective heirs and Representatives) or as otherwise set forth in this Section 9.6, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the Parties any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any Parent Party’s Willful and Material Breach of this Agreement or intentional fraud, then Company Stockholders, acting solely through the Company, shall be beneficiaries of this Agreement and shall be entitled to pursue any and all legally available remedies, including equitable relief, and to seek recovery of all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses of every kind and nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees; provided, however, that the rights granted pursuant to this sentence shall be enforceable only by the Company, on behalf of the Company Stockholders, in the Company’s sole discretion, it being understood and agreed such rights shall attach to such shares of Company Capital Stock and subsequently trade and transfer therewith and, consequently, any damages, settlements, or other amounts recovered or received by the Company

94

with respect to such rights may, in the Company’s sole discretion, be (a) distributed, in whole or in part, by the Company to the holders of shares of Company Capital Stock of record as of any date determined by the Company or (b) retained by the Company for the use and benefit of the Company on behalf of its stockholders in any manner the Company deems fit. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.6 to the contrary, the Company Designated Directors shall be express third-party beneficiaries of Section 2.5(b) and Ben M. Brigham shall be an express third-party beneficiary of Section 6.25.

9.7 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT, AND ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT) THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREOF.

(b) THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR, IF THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR THE DELAWARE SUPREME COURT DETERMINES THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING SECTION 111 OF THE DGCL, THE COURT OF CHANCERY DOES NOT HAVE OR SHOULD NOT EXERCISE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION OVER SUCH MATTER, THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA LOCATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE SOLELY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE THAT ARISES IN RESPECT OF THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE DOCUMENTS REFERRED TO IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN RESPECT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND HEREBY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT, AS A DEFENSE IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING FOR INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR ANY SUCH DOCUMENT THAT IT IS NOT SUBJECT THERETO OR THAT SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING MAY NOT BE BROUGHT OR IS NOT MAINTAINABLE IN SAID COURTS OR THAT VENUE THEREOF MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE OR THAT THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY SUCH DOCUMENT MAY NOT BE ENFORCED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS, AND THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED EXCLUSIVELY BY SUCH A DELAWARE STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO AND GRANT ANY SUCH COURT JURISDICTION OVER THE PERSON OF SUCH PARTIES AND OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER OF SUCH DISPUTE AND AGREE THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTION 9.3 OR IN SUCH OTHER MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF.

95

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.7.

9.8 No Remedy in Certain Circumstances. Each Party agrees that, should any court or other competent authority hold any provision of this Agreement or part hereof to be null, void or unenforceable, or order any Party to take any action inconsistent herewith or not to take an action consistent herewith or required hereby, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions and obligations contained or set forth herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, unless the foregoing inconsistent action or the failure to take an action makes this Agreement impossible to perform, in which case this Agreement shall terminate.

9.9 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Party. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 9.9 shall be void.

9.10 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by the Parties. Prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, it is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with this Section 9.10, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at law or in equity. Each Party accordingly agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.10. Each Party further agrees that no other Party or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.10, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

96

9.11 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors at any time before or after adoption of this Agreement by the Company Stockholders, but, after any such adoption, no amendment shall be made which by law would require the further approval by such stockholders without first obtaining such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties.

9.12 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the First Effective Time, the Company and Parent may, by action taken or authorized by their respective boards of directors, to the extent legally allowed:

(a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other Party hereunder;

(b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; or

(c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions of the other Party contained herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. No agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid unless set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party.

The procedures to be followed by the Company and each Holder electing to sell Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, and the respective rights and obligations of the Company and such Holders, with respect to the preparation, filing and effectiveness of such Registration Statement, are as follows:

(a) In connection with the Initial Registration Statement, the Company will at least three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing of the Registration Statement and any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than, after effectiveness of the Registration Statement, any filing made under the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement), (i) furnish to such Holders copies of all such documents prior to filing and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to address in each such document when so filed with the Commission such comments as such Holders reasonably shall propose prior to the filing thereof.

(b) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as reasonably practicable (i) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary under applicable law to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered thereby through the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold (the “Effectiveness Period”) and, subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement, prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; and (iii) respond to any comments received from the Commission with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably practicable provide such Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to such Registration Statement that pertains to such Holders as selling stockholders but not any comments that would result in the disclosure to such Holders of material and non-public information concerning the Company.

(c) The Company will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the Registration Statements and the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement.

5

(d) The Company will notify such Holders who are included in a Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable: (i) (A) when a Prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement in which such Holder is included has been filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of the applicable Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement (in which case the Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of such Holders that pertain to such Holders as selling stockholders); and (C) with respect to each applicable Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has been declared effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information that pertains to such Holders as sellers of Registrable Securities; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to such Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided, however, that no notice by the Company shall be required pursuant to this clause (v) in the event that the Company either promptly files a prospectus supplement to update the Prospectus or a Form 8-K or other appropriate Exchange Act report that is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, which in either case, contains the requisite information that results in such Registration Statement no longer containing any untrue statement of material fact or omitting to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading).

(e) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, as promptly as reasonably practicable, or if any such order or suspension is made effective during any Blackout Period or Suspension Period, as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Blackout Period or Suspension Period is over.

(f) During the Effectiveness Period, the Company will furnish to each such Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Holder (including those incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission; provided, that the Company will not have any obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause that is available on the Commission’s EDGAR system.

6

(g) The Company will promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) authorized by the Company for use and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably request during the Effectiveness Period. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.

(h) The Company will cooperate with such Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (or book-entry shares) representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates (or book-entry shares) shall be free of all restrictive legends indicating that the Registrable Securities are unregistered or unqualified for resale under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or other applicable securities laws, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holder may request in writing. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company will promptly, after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, cause an opinion of counsel as to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent which authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such Registrable Securities without any such legend upon sale by the Holder of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement.

(i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(d)(v), as promptly as reasonably practicable, the Company will prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, if required by applicable law, to the affected Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, no Registration Statement nor any Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(j) For a reasonable period prior to the filing of any Registration Statement and throughout the Effectiveness Period, the Company will make available, upon reasonable notice at the Company’s principal place of business or such other reasonable place, for inspection during normal business hours by a representative or representatives of the selling Holders, the managing underwriter or managing underwriters and any attorneys or accountants retained by such selling Holders or underwriters, all such financial and other information and books and records of the Company, and cause the officers, employees, counsel and independent certified public accountants of the Company to respond to such inquiries, as shall be reasonably necessary (and in the case of counsel, not violate an attorney-client privilege in such counsel’s reasonable belief) to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act.

(k) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to file a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement for a period of up to 30 days if (i) the Board determines that a postponement is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders generally due to a pending transaction involving the Company (including a pending securities offering by the Company), (ii) the Board determines such registration would render the Company unable to comply with applicable securities laws or (iii) the Board determines such registration would require disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential (any such period, a “Blackout Period”); provided, however, that in no event shall any Blackout Period together with any Suspension Period exceed an aggregate of 120 days in any 12-month period.

7

(l) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not have any obligation to effect any underwritten offering of Shares, prepare any prospectus supplement for an underwritten offering of Shares, participate in any due diligence, execute any agreements or certificates or deliver legal opinions (other than customary de-legending certificates and opinions or any customary Exhibit 5 opinion required in connection with the initial filing of the Registration Statement) or obtain comfort letters in connection with any sales of the Shares under the Registration Statement.

4. No Inconsistent Agreements; Additional Rights. The Company shall not hereafter enter into, and, other than the Existing Registration Rights Agreement, is not currently a party to, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent in any material respect with the rights granted to the Holders by this Agreement. The Company shall not, prior to the termination of this Agreement, grant any registration rights that are superior to, conflict with, or would otherwise prevent the Company from performing, the rights granted to the Holders hereby. For a period of one year following the Closing Date, the Company will not amend or modify the Agreement of Limited Partnership of Opco LP (the “Opco LPA”) in a manner that would negatively impact the Redemption Rights (as defined in the Opco LPA) of the Holders, without such Holders’ prior written consent.

5. Registration Expenses. All Registration Expenses incident to the Parties’ performance of or compliance with their respective obligations under this Agreement (in each case, excluding any Selling Expenses) shall be borne by the Company, whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. “Registration Expenses” shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with the Trading Market and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or “Blue Sky” laws), (ii) printing expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for Company Securities and of printing Prospectuses if the printing of Prospectuses is reasonably requested by a Holder of Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel, auditors, accountants and independent petroleum engineers for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (vii) reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Holders reasonably acceptable to the Company and selected by the Holders that hold a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such filing in connection with the filing or amendment of any Registration Statement or Prospectus hereunder. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including expenses payable to third parties and including all salaries and expenses of their officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on the Trading Market.

6. Indemnification.

(a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its Affiliates and each of their respective officers and directors and any agent thereof (collectively, “Holder Indemnified Persons”), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, costs (including reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses, judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Holder Indemnified Person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, under the Securities Act or otherwise (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which any Registrable Securities were registered, in any preliminary prospectus (if the Company authorized the use of such preliminary prospectus prior to the Effective Date), or in any summary or final prospectus or free writing prospectus (if such free writing prospectus was authorized for use by the Company) or in any amendment or supplement thereto (if used during the period the Company is required to keep the Registration Statement current), or arising out of, based upon or resulting from the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Holder Indemnified Person to the extent that any such claim arises out of, is based upon or results from an untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, such preliminary, summary or final prospectus or free writing prospectus or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder Indemnified Person or any underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof. The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder Indemnified Person or any Indemnified Party (as defined below) and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 6 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement indefinitely.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder participates, such Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors and any agent thereof, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all Losses as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement, in any preliminary prospectus (if used prior to the Effective Date of such Registration Statement), or in any summary or final prospectus or free writing prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (if used during the period the Company is required to keep the Registration Statement current), or arising out of, based upon or resulting from the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that the same are made in reliance and in conformity with information relating to the Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such

9

Holder for use therein. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability such Holder may otherwise have and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any Indemnified Party. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and indemnifying party may exist with respect to such claim or there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the Indemnified Party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Party there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are in addition to or may conflict with those available to another Indemnified Party with respect to such claim. Failure to give prompt written notice shall not release the indemnifying party from its obligations hereunder.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the Indemnified Party, on the other, in connection with the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.

7. Registerable Securities Transactions. Subject to compliance with the Company’s policies, if requested by any Holder in connection with any transaction involving any Registrable Securities (including any sale or other transfer of such securities without registration under the Securities Act, any margin loan with respect to such securities and any pledge of such securities), the Company agrees to provide such Holder with customary and reasonable assistance to facilitate such transaction, including, without limitation, (i) such action as such Holder may reasonably request from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and (ii) entering into an “issuer’s agreement” in connection with any margin loan with respect to such securities in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company; provided, that the Holder shall deliver such documents reasonably requested by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent in connection with such request pursuant to this Section 7.

10

8. Facilitation of Sales Pursuant to Rule 144.

(a) To the extent it shall be required to do so under the Exchange Act, the Company shall timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act), and shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of any Holder in connection with that Holder’s sale pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

(b) The Company will reasonably cooperate with and assist any Holder and its equityholders to facilitate the transfer of such Holder’s and its equityholders’ shares of Class A Common Stock to a DTC brokerage account as reasonably requested by such Holder (including the delivery of instruction letters by the Company or its counsel to the Company’s transfer agent, the delivery of customary legal opinions by counsel to the Company and the delivery of such shares without restrictive legends), provided that the Holder and its equityholders shall (i) deliver such documents reasonably requested by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent in connection with such request and (ii) agree not to sell such shares unless an effective registration statement is on file with the Commission or there is an applicable exemption from registration for such sale under the Securities Act or the rules promulgated thereunder.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Remedies. In the event of actual or potential breach by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(d), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemental Prospectus or amended Registration Statement as contemplated by Section 3(i) or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement (a “Suspension Period”); provided, however, that in no event shall any Suspension Period together with any other Suspension Periods exceed an aggregate of 60 days during the first six-month period following the Closing Date or 120 days in any 12-month period thereafter. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this Section 9(b).

11

(c) Amendments and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed by the Company and Holders that hold a majority of the Registrable Securities as of the date of such waiver or amendment; provided, that any waiver or amendment that would have a disproportionate adverse effect on a Holder relative to the other Holders shall require the consent of such Holder. The Company shall provide prior notice to all Holders of any proposed waiver or amendment. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any Party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

(d) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or electronic mail as specified in this Section 9(d) prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on a Business Day, (ii) the Business Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or electronic mail as specified in this Agreement later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on any date, (iii) the Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service or (iv) upon actual receipt by the Party to whom such notice is required to be given.

(e) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. Except as provided in this Section 9(e), this Agreement, and any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the Company and the Holders. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the rights of a Holder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to all or any portion of its Registrable Securities may be assigned without such consent (but only with all related obligations) with respect to such Registrable Securities (and any Registrable Securities issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for or in replacement of such Registrable Securities) by such Holder to a transferee of such Registrable Securities; provided (i) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Holders.

(f) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties or their respective successors and permitted assigns and any Indemnified Party, any legal or equitable right, remedy, claim or benefit under or in respect of this Agreement.

(g) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile or electronic mail transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such signature delivered by facsimile or electronic mail transmission were the original thereof.

GENERAL

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

“Beneficially Own” or “Beneficial Ownership” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and a Person’s beneficial ownership of securities shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of such Rule (in each case, irrespective of whether or not such Rule is actually applicable in such circumstance). For the avoidance of doubt, Beneficially Own and Beneficial Ownership shall also include record ownership of securities.

“Beneficial Owners” shall mean Persons who Beneficially Own the referenced securities.

ARTICLE II

ADDITIONAL SECURITIES

Each Holder agrees that any shares of Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units and any other shares of capital stock or other equity securities of Parent or Opco LP that such Holder purchases or otherwise acquires or with respect to which such Holder otherwise acquires voting power after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the Termination Date shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such shares of capital stock or other equity securities constituted Securities as of the date hereof. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Parent affecting the Securities, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.

ARTICLE III

AGREEMENT TO VOTE; PROXY; WRITTEN CONSENT

3.1 Agreement to Vote. From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date, each Holder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, at any meeting of the stockholders of Parent (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting, however called), or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of Parent or unitholders of Opco LP, such Holder shall:

(a) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause all of the Holder’s applicable Securities owned as of the record date for such meeting to be counted as present thereat for purpose of establishing a quorum;

2

(b) vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting in person or by proxy (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Holder’s applicable Securities owned as of the record date for such meeting (or the date that any written consent is executed by the Holder) in favor of (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement; (ii) the approval of the Parent Merger and the other Transactions; (iii) any amendment and/or restatement of the Organizational Documents of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries necessary to effect the consummation of the Transactions as contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (iv) any other proposals agreed to by Parent and the Company which are necessary and appropriate in connection with the Transactions or to effectuate the intent of the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii); and

(c) vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting in person or by proxy (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Holder’s applicable Securities owned as of the record date for such meeting (or the date that any written consent is executed by the Holder) against (i) any agreement, transaction or proposal that relates to a Parent Competing Proposal or any other transaction, proposal, agreement or action made in opposition to adoption of the Merger Agreement or in competition or inconsistent with the Mergers or matters contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ii) any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries contained in the Merger Agreement or of the Holder contained in this Agreement; (iii) any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to result in (x) any condition to the consummation of the Mergers set forth in Article VII of the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled or (y) any change to the voting rights of any class of shares of capital stock of Parent (including any amendments to Parent’s Organizational Documents); and (iv) any other action that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, postpone or adversely affect any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Mergers, or this Agreement. Any attempt by the Holder to vote, consent or express dissent with respect to (or otherwise to utilize the voting power of), the Holder’s applicable Securities in contravention of this Section 3.1 shall be null and void ab initio. If the Holder is the Beneficial Owner, but not the holder of record, of any Securities, the Holder agrees to take all actions necessary to cause the holder of record and any nominees to vote (or exercise a consent with respect to) all of such Securities in accordance with this Section 3.1.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 3.1 shall not require any Holder to be present (in person or by proxy) or vote (or cause to be voted), any of the applicable Securities to amend, modify or waive any provision of the Merger Agreement in a manner that reduces the amount, changes the form of the Merger Consideration payable, extends the End Date or otherwise adversely affects such Holder of the Company (in its capacity as such) in any material respect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to Section 3.2, each Holder shall remain free to vote (or execute consents or proxies with respect to) the applicable Securities with respect to any matter other than as set forth in Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(c) in any manner such Holder deems appropriate, including in connection with the election of directors of the Company. The obligations of the Holders specified in this Section 3.1 shall apply whether or not the Mergers or any action described above is recommended by the Parent Board.

3.2 Proxy. Each Holder hereby irrevocably appoints as its proxy and attorney-in-fact, Parent and any person designated in writing by Parent, each of them individually, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to consent to or vote the applicable Securities as indicated in Section 3.1 above. Each Holder intends this proxy to be irrevocable and unconditional, and coupled with an interest and will take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effect the intent of this proxy, and hereby revokes any proxy previously granted by such Holder with respect to such Securities (and such Holder hereby represents that any such proxy is revocable). The proxy granted by each Holder shall be automatically revoked upon the occurrence of the earlier of the Effective Date or the Termination Date and the Company may further terminate this proxy at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to each Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, the proxy granted by each Holder pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall only be effective immediately prior to the voting of such Securities.

3.3 [Reserved.]

3.4 Agreement to Deliver Written Consent. Each Holder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, promptly following the time at which the Registration Statement becomes effective (and, in any event within one (1) Business Day), it shall cause the Written Consent to be executed and delivered to Parent with respect to the applicable Securities as of the date thereof entitled to consent thereto.

ARTICLE IV

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

4.1 [Reserved.]

4.2 Further Assurances. Each Holder agrees that until the Termination Date, such Holder shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to take no action that would reasonably be likely to adversely affect or delay the ability to perform its respective covenants and agreements under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict the ability of any Holder to transfer or otherwise enter into a transaction with respect to its Securities at any time in its sole discretion.

4.3 Fiduciary Duties. Each Holder is entering into this Agreement solely in its capacity as the record or Beneficial Owner of the Securities and nothing herein is intended to or shall limit or affect any actions taken by any of such Holder’s designees serving in his or her capacity as a director of Parent (or a Subsidiary of Parent).

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF HOLDER

5.1 Representations and Warranties. Each Holder, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Ownership. The Holder has, with respect to the Securities, Beneficial Ownership of, good and valid title to and full and exclusive power to vote, and issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth in Article III. The Securities constitute all of the shares of Parent Common Stock and Opco LP Units owned of record or beneficially by the Holder as of the date hereof. Other than this Agreement and except as set forth in the Organizational Documents of Opco LP, (i) there are no agreements or arrangements of any kind, contingent or otherwise, to which the Holder is a party obligating the Holder to transfer or cause to be transferred to any person any of the Securities or otherwise enter into a transaction with respect to its Securities and (ii) no Person has any contractual or other right or obligation to purchase or otherwise acquire any of the Securities.

(b) Organization; Authority. As applicable to each Holder, Royal Aggregator is a limited partnership, and Rock Ridge is a limited liability company, each duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The Holder has full power and authority and is duly authorized to make, enter into and carry out the terms of this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Holder and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company and Parent) constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Holder, enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its terms (except in all cases as such enforceability may be limited by Creditors’ Rights), and no other action is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by the Holder or the performance of the Holder’s obligations hereunder.

(c) No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by the Holder of this Agreement will not (i) violate any provision of any Law applicable to the Holder; (ii) violate any order, judgment or decree applicable to the Holder or any of its affiliates; or (iii) conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, any agreement or instrument to which the Holder or any of its affiliates is a party or any term or condition of its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or comparable Organizational Documents, as applicable, except where such conflict, breach or default would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on the Holder’s ability to satisfy its obligations hereunder.

(d) Consents and Approvals. The execution and delivery by the Holder of this Agreement does not, and the performance of the Holder’s obligations hereunder, require the Holder or any of its affiliates to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any person or Governmental Entity, except such filings and authorizations as may be required under the Exchange Act.

(e) Absence of Litigation. To the knowledge of the Holder, as of the date hereof, there is no Proceeding pending against, or threatened in writing against the Holder that would prevent the performance by the Holder of its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Merger Agreement, including the Mergers, on a timely basis.

(f) Absence of Other Voting Agreements. Other than pursuant to Permitted Encumbrances, none of the Securities is subject to any voting trust, proxy or other agreement, arrangement or restriction with respect to voting, in each case, that is inconsistent with this Agreement, except as contemplated by this Agreement. None of the Securities is subject to any pledge agreement pursuant to which the Holder does not retain sole and exclusive voting rights with respect to the Securities subject to such pledge agreement at least until the occurrence of an event of default under the related debt instrument.

6.2 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Securities. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Securities shall remain vested in and belong to each Holder, as applicable, and the Company shall not have any authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of Parent or exercise any power or authority to direct any Holder in the voting or disposition of any Securities, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

6.3 Disclosure. Each Holder consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by the Company and Parent of such Holder’s identity and holding of Securities, and the terms of this Agreement (including, for avoidance of doubt, the disclosure of this Agreement), in any press release, the Registration Statement, including the Joint Information Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as applicable, and any other disclosure document required in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Mergers and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

6.4 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate at the earliest of (i) the date the Merger Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms, (ii) the Effective Time, (iii) an amendment to the Merger Agreement without the prior written consent of each Holder that (A) reduces the consideration payable in the Parent Merger, on a per share of Parent Common Stock basis, (B) changes the form of consideration payable in the Parent Merger to the holders of Parent Common Stock, or (C) extends the outside date under the Merger Agreement (except if such extension is explicitly provided for in, and effected pursuant to, the Merger Agreement) and (iv) mutual consent of the parties hereto (such date, the “Termination Date”). Neither the provisions of this Section 6.4 nor the termination of this Agreement shall relieve (x) any party hereto from any liability of such party to any other party incurred prior to such termination or (y) any party hereto from any liability to any other party arising out of or in connection with a breach of this Agreement. Nothing in the Merger Agreement shall relieve a Holder from any liability arising out of or in connection with a breach of this Agreement.

provided, that, in each case, such waiver is made in writing and signed by the party (or parties) against whom the waiver is to be effective.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company or Parent in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. No agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid unless set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

6.8 Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Mergers are consummated.

6.9 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party under, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if delivered in person; (b) if transmitted by electronic mail (“email”) (but only if confirmation of receipt of such email is requested and received; provided, that each notice party shall use reasonable best efforts to confirm receipt of any such email correspondence promptly upon receipt of such request); or (c) if transmitted by national overnight courier, in each case as addressed as follows:

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

“Beneficially Own” or “Beneficial Ownership” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and a Person’s beneficial ownership of securities shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of such Rule (in each case, irrespective of whether or not such Rule is actually applicable in such circumstance).

ARTICLE II

AGREEMENT TO RETAIN SECURITIES

2.1 Transfer and Encumbrance of Securities.

(a) Until the Termination Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), subject to the exceptions set forth herein, each Holder shall not, with respect to any Securities Beneficially Owned by such Holder, Transfer any such Securities. During the Lock-Up Period, each Holder shall not, with respect to any Securities Beneficially Owned by such Holder (A) deposit any such Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Securities or grant any proxy (except as otherwise provided herein) or power of attorney with respect thereto or (B) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such Holder contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling such Holder from performing its obligations under the Agreement.

(b) The restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a), shall not apply to:

(i) in the case of an entity, Transfers to a stockholder, partner, member or affiliate of such entity;

(ii) in the case of an individual, Transfers by gift to members of the individual’s immediate family (as defined below) or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of one of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization;

2

(iii) in the case of an individual, Transfers by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual;

(vii) any Transfers made by a Holder pursuant to the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement;

provided, however, that (A) in the case of clauses (i) through (v), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement, in substantially the form of this Agreement (it being understood that any references to “immediate family” in the agreement executed by such transferee shall expressly refer only to the immediate family of the applicable Holder and not to the immediate family of the transferee), agreeing to be bound by these Transfer restrictions. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean a spouse, domestic partner, child, grandchild or other lineal descendant (including by adoption), father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned; and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Parent affecting the Securities, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.

2.3 Unpermitted Transfers; Involuntary Transfers. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Securities in violation of this Article II shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be null and void ab initio. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Holder hereby authorizes and instructs Parent to instruct its transfer agent to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Securities. If any involuntary Transfer of any of any Holder’s Securities shall occur, the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Securities subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement.

Any attempt by such Holder to vote, consent or express dissent with respect to (or otherwise to utilize the voting power of), the Securities in contravention of this Section 3.1 shall be null and void ab initio. If such Holder is the Beneficial Owner, but not the holder of record, of any Securities, such Holder agrees to take all actions reasonably necessary to cause the holder of record and any nominees to vote (or exercise a consent with respect to) all of such Securities in accordance with this Section 3.1.

Each Holder hereby irrevocably appoints as its proxy and attorney-in-fact, Parent and any person designated in writing by Parent, each of them individually, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to consent to or vote the applicable Securities as indicated in Section 3.1 above.

The proxy granted by each Holder shall be automatically revoked upon the occurrence of the earlier of the Effective Date or the Termination Date and the Company may further terminate this proxy at any time at its sole election by written notice provided to the Holders.

3.4 Agreement to Deliver Written Consent.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Parent and the Company have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 6, 2022 (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), providing for, among other things, (i) the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary corporation of Snapper Merger Sub I, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“New Topco”), with and into Parent (the “Parent Merger”), (iii) simultaneously with the Parent Merger, the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of New Topco with and into the Company (the “Company Merger”), and (iv) immediately following the Parent Merger and the Company Merger, the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary limited liability company of Opco LP with and into Opco LLC;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

GENERAL

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement.

“Beneficially Own” or “Beneficial Ownership” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and a Person’s beneficial ownership of securities shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of such Rule (in each case, irrespective of whether or not such Rule is actually applicable in such circumstance). For the avoidance of doubt, Beneficially Own and Beneficial Ownership shall also include record ownership of securities.

“Beneficial Owners” shall mean Persons who Beneficially Own the referenced securities.

“Transfer” means (a) any direct or indirect offer, sale, lease, assignment, encumbrance, loan, pledge, grant of a security interest, hypothecation, disposition or other similar transfer (by operation of law or otherwise), either voluntary or involuntary, or entry into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to any offer, sale, lease, assignment, encumbrance, loan, pledge, hypothecation, disposition or other transfer (by operation of law or otherwise), of any Securities owned by Holder (whether beneficially or of record), including in each case through the Transfer of any Person or any interest in any Person, (b) in respect of any capital stock or interest in any capital stock, to enter into any swap or any other agreement, transaction or series of transactions that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise or (c) public announcement of any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (a) or (b).

ARTICLE II

AGREEMENT TO RETAIN SECURITIES

2.1 Transfer and Encumbrance of Securities.

(a) Until the Termination Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), subject to the exceptions set forth herein, each Holder shall not, with respect to any Securities Beneficially Owned by such Holder, Transfer any such Securities. During the Lock-Up Period, each Holder shall not, with respect to any Securities Beneficially Owned by such Holder (A) deposit any such Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Securities or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto or (B) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such Holder contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling such Holder from performing its obligations under the Agreement.

(b) The restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a), shall not apply to:

(i) in the case of an entity, Transfers to a stockholder, partner, member or affiliate of such entity;

2

(ii) in the case of an individual, Transfers by gift to members of the individual’s immediate family (as defined below) or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of one of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization;

(iii) in the case of an individual, Transfers by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual;

(iv) in the case of an individual, Transfers pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order;

(v) in the case of an entity, Transfers by virtue of the laws of the state of the entity’s organization and the entity’s organizational documents upon dissolution of the entity; or

(vi) Transfers to the Company associated with (a) net withholding to satisfy tax withholding obligations or (b) net exercise to satisfy exercise price obligations, in each case, for equity-based awards pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans or arrangements;

provided, however, that (A) in the case of clauses (i) through (v), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement, in substantially the form of this Agreement (it being understood that any references to “immediate family” in the agreement executed by such transferee shall expressly refer only to the immediate family of a Holder and not to the immediate family of the transferee), agreeing to be bound by these Transfer restrictions. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean a spouse, domestic partner, child, grandchild or other lineal descendant (including by adoption), father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned; and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

2.2 Additional Purchases; Adjustments. Each Holder agrees that any shares of Parent Common Stock or Opco LP Units and any other shares of capital stock or other equity securities of Parent or Opco LP that such Holder purchases or otherwise acquires or with respect to which such Holder otherwise acquires voting power after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such shares of capital stock or other equity securities constituted Securities as of the date hereof. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or the like of the capital stock of the Parent affecting the Securities, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the resulting securities.

2.3 Unpermitted Transfers; Involuntary Transfers. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any Securities in violation of this Article II shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be null and void ab initio. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Holder hereby authorizes and instructs Parent to instruct its transfer agent to enter a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Securities. If any involuntary Transfer of any of a Holder’s Securities shall occur, the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Securities subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement.

From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date, each Holder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, at any meeting of the stockholders of Parent (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting, however called), or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of Parent or unitholders of Opco LP, such Holder shall:

Any attempt by the Holder to vote, consent or express dissent with respect to (or otherwise to utilize the voting power of), the Holder’s applicable Securities in contravention of this Section 3.1 shall be null and void ab initio.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 3.1 shall not require any Holder to be present (in person or by proxy) or vote (or cause to be voted), any of the applicable Securities to amend, modify or waive any provision of the Merger Agreement in a manner that reduces the amount, changes the form of the Merger Consideration payable, extends the End Date or otherwise adversely affects such Holder of the Company (in its capacity as such) in any material respect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement each Holder shall remain free to vote (or execute consents or proxies with respect to) the applicable Securities with respect to any matter other than as set forth in Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(c) in any manner such Holder deems appropriate, including in connection with the election of directors of the Company.

3.5 No Short Sales. Each Holder agrees that, from the date of this Agreement to and including the termination of this Agreement, none of such Holder nor any person or entity acting on behalf of such Holder or pursuant to any understanding with such Holder will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of Parent or the Company. For the purposes hereof, “Short Sales” shall mean all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all short positions effected through any direct or indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), short or other short transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Holder of this Agreement will not (i) violate any provision of any Law applicable to the Holder; (ii) violate any order, judgment or decree applicable to the Holder or any of its affiliates; or (iii) conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, any agreement or instrument to which the Holder or any of its affiliates is a party or any term or condition of its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or comparable Organizational Documents, as applicable, except where such conflict, breach or default would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on the Holder’s ability to satisfy its obligations hereunder.

(d) Consents and Approvals. The execution and delivery by the Holder of this Agreement does not, and the performance of the Holder’s obligations hereunder, require the Holder or any of its affiliates to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any person or Governmental Entity, except such filings and authorizations as may be required under the Exchange Act.

6

(e) Absence of Litigation. To the knowledge of the Holder, as of the date hereof, there is no Proceeding pending against, or threatened in writing against the Holder that would prevent the performance by the Holder of its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Merger Agreement, including the Mergers, on a timely basis.

(f) Absence of Other Voting Agreements. Other than pursuant to Permitted Encumbrances, none of the Securities is subject to any voting trust, proxy or other agreement, arrangement or restriction with respect to voting, in each case, that is inconsistent with this Agreement, except as contemplated by this Agreement. None of the Securities is subject to any pledge agreement pursuant to which the Holder does not retain sole and exclusive voting rights with respect to the Securities subject to such pledge agreement at least until the occurrence of an event of default under the related debt instrument.

ARTICLE VI

MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 [Reserved.]

6.2 No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Securities. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the Securities shall remain vested in and belong to each Holder, as applicable, and the Company shall not have any authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of Parent or exercise any power or authority to direct any Holder in the voting or disposition of any Securities, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

6.3 Disclosure. Each Holder consents to and authorizes the publication and disclosure by the Company and Parent of such Holder’s identity and holding of Securities, and the terms of this Agreement (including, for avoidance of doubt, the disclosure of this Agreement), in any press release, the Registration Statement, including the Joint Information Statement/Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as applicable, and any other disclosure document required in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Mergers and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

6.4 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate at the earliest of (i) the date the Merger Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms, (ii) the Effective Time, (iii) an amendment to the Merger Agreement without the prior written consent of each Holder that (A) reduces the consideration payable in the Parent Merger, on a per share of Parent Common Stock basis, (B) changes the form of consideration payable in the Parent Merger to the holders of Parent Common Stock, or (C) extends the outside date under the Merger Agreement (except if such extension is explicitly provided for in, and effected pursuant to, the Merger Agreement) and (iv) mutual consent of the parties hereto (such date, the “Termination Date”). Neither the provisions of this Section 6.4 nor the termination of this Agreement shall relieve (x) any party hereto from any liability of such party to any other party incurred prior to such termination or (y) any party hereto from any liability to any other party arising out of or in connection with a breach of this Agreement. Nothing in the Merger Agreement shall relieve a Holder from any liability arising out of or in connection with a breach of this Agreement.

6.5 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto, signed on behalf of each of each Holder, Parent and the Company.

6.6 [Reserved.]

6.7 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the expiration of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.4, the parties may, to the extent legally allowed:

(a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other party hereunder;

(b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; or

(c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions of the other party contained herein;

provided, that, in each case, such waiver is made in writing and signed by the party (or parties) against whom the waiver is to be effective.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company or Parent in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. No agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid unless set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

6.8 Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Mergers are consummated.

6.9 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party under, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if delivered in person; (b) if transmitted by electronic mail (“email”) (but only if confirmation of receipt of such email is requested and received; provided, that each notice party shall use reasonable best efforts to confirm receipt of any such email correspondence promptly upon receipt of such request); or (c) if transmitted by national overnight courier, in each case as addressed as follows:
