Except for errors in calculation, all determinations of the Accounting Expert with respect to the Run-Rate EBITDA Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Wafra Representative and the Digital Colony Representative, and neither the Wafra Representative nor the Digital Colony Representative shall have the right to appeal such determinations absent fraud or manifest error. Each of the Parties shall bear its own expenses in connection with the review and resolution by the Accounting Expert; provided, that the fees and expenses of the Accounting Expert incurred in connection with the resolution of the Dispute shall be allocated between the Buyer and CCOC by the Accounting Expert in proportion to the extent that either of Buyer or the Digital Colony Representative did not prevail on items in dispute with respect to the Run-Rate EBITDA Statement as submitted to the Accounting Expert.

(g)    If, the Final Run-Rate EBITDA is equal to or exceeds the Contingent Consideration Threshold Amount, then Buyer shall promptly and in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days after the later of (x) the receipt by the Wafra Representative of the Run-Rate EBITDA Statement (in the case that the Final Run-Rate EBITDA is determined pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(x)) and (y) the determination of the Final Run-Rate EBITDA (in the case that the Final Run-Rate EBITDA is determined pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(y) or Section 2.4(e)(z)), pay to DCMH the Contingent Consideration Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts set forth on Schedule 2.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or such other account as is designated in writing; provided, that Buyer shall not be obligated to pay the Contingent Consideration Amount prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the Wafra Representative’s receipt of the 2020 Financial Statements.

(h)    Buyer and CCOC shall treat and report for applicable Tax and financial reporting purposes a portion of the Contingent Consideration Amount as interest as determined using the appropriate federal rate (under Section 1274(d) of the Code and Section 1.1275-4(c)) of the Treasury Regulations thereunder, as applicable.

(i)    During the period from the Closing until the determination of the Final Run-Rate EBITDA, CCOC shall and shall cause DCMH and its other Controlled Affiliates to operate the Digital Colony Business in good faith and in a manner that is consistent with its business plan and the DCMH Investor Rights Agreement, and shall not knowingly take any action with respect to any accounting policies or procedures that are utilized to determine the calculations of Fee-Related Revenue and/or Run-Rate Expenses with the intent of impeding, or otherwise making unavailable information required for, the determination or verification of the Run-Rate EBITDA.

(j)    In the event of any Liquidation Event, the Contingent Consideration shall not be payable.

Schedule 2.5 sets forth the allocation of the Management Interests Consideration Amount, the Contingent Consideration Amount and the Warrants Consideration Amount for Tax purposes among the Common Interests, the Convertible Preferred Interests and the Warrants.

Section 2.6    Tax Withholding. Buyer shall be entitled to withhold Taxes on payments made by it pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with applicable Law and any such withheld Taxes shall be deemed paid for all purposes of this Agreement. If Buyer determines that it is required by applicable Law to withhold any amount from any payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide at least five (5) Business Days’ notice to CCOC of Buyer’s intent to withhold such amount and the basis for such withholding, and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate (at the applicable payee’s expense) in order to eliminate or to reduce any such withholding, including providing a reasonable opportunity to provide forms or other evidence that would mitigate, reduce or eliminate such withholding.

DCMH shall contribute all of the amounts received by it pursuant to Section 2.3(a) to Special Reserve, and Special Reserve will use such amounts to make one or more loans to one or more members of the Colony Capital Group (the “Loan Investments”). The Parties agree that DCMH will make special allocations to give the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Colony DCMH Members, on the other hand, an economic interest of 10% and 90%, respectively, in income and loss items from Special Reserve. For the avoidance of doubt, allocations of all other income and loss items of DCMH will be made in accordance with the applicable Specified Percentage.

Section 3.3    Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal (and, to the extent applicable, state, local, and foreign) income tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat the Contemplated Transactions under this Agreement on their applicable Tax Returns as follows: the contribution by the Buyer of the amounts set forth in Schedule 2.5 as the consideration paid by the Buyer for the Common Interests and the Convertible Preferred Interests to DCMH in a transaction to which Section 721(a) of the Code applies (and, for the avoidance of doubt, none of such amounts transferred by the Buyer to DCMH as giving rise to a disguised sale under Section 707 of the Code). In addition, the Parties agree that, as a consequence of the Restructuring, (a) Digital Colony Management, LLC’s status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes will not terminate within the meaning of Section 708 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and (b) DCMH will be considered a continuation of Digital Colony Management, LLC for U.S. federal income tax purposes and all other applicable tax purposes, except as otherwise required by law.

The Digital Colony Companies have provided to Buyer true and correct copies of all of the Organizational Documents of the Digital Colony Companies. Each Organizational Document of each Digital Colony Company is in full force and effect and there has been no material violation thereof.

(b)    No Order has been made, petition presented to CCOC, Colony Capital or any of the Digital Colony Companies or resolution passed by CCOC, Colony Capital or any Digital Colony Company for the winding up of any and no meeting has been convened for the purpose of winding up of any Digital Colony Company, (ii) no steps have been taken by CCOC, Colony Capital or any Digital Colony Company for the appointment of an administrator or receiver (including an administrative receiver) of all or any part of any Digital Colony Company’s assets, (iii) none of the Digital Colony Companies has made or proposed any arrangement or composition with its creditors or any class of creditors, (iv) none of the Digital Colony Companies is insolvent, or unable to pay its debts within the meaning of the insolvency legislation applicable to any such Digital Colony Company, and none of any Digital Colony Companies nor any equityholder thereof has stopped paying its debts as they fall due, (v) after giving effect to the sale of the Common Interests and the Convertible Preferred Interests and the application of the proceeds therefrom, as applicable, no Digital Colony Company shall be insolvent, (vi) to the Knowledge of the Digital Colony Companies, no execution or other process has been levied against any Digital Colony Company or action taken to repossess goods in the possession of any Digital Colony Company, and (vii) no unsatisfied judgment is outstanding against any Digital Colony Company.

There are no other issued or outstanding equity, economic participation or voting interests in any Digital Colony Company other than the Group Interests nor are there any debt or other interests outstanding that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any such equity, economic participation or voting interests or otherwise have Equity Rights or would have such rights after conversion or exchange. All of the issued and outstanding Group Interests have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable, have not been and will not be issued in violation of any applicable Equity Rights, and have been offered, sold and delivered by the relevant Digital Colony Company, as applicable, in compliance in all material respects with applicable securities and other applicable Laws and Contracts.

The incurrence, assumption or guarantee of any such Indebtedness is not in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice for the Digital Colony Companies.

LTD directly or indirectly to DCMH as soon as practicable, and in any event within 45 days of the Closing Date.

(e)    Nothing in this Section 7.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall require any of CCOC, Colony Capital, any other members of the Colony Capital Group or the Digital Colony Companies to agree to any conditions or remedies in connection with the FCA Approval.

Section 7.5    Tax Matters.

(a)    CCOC shall give effect to the transactions contemplated by Section 2.1(a) as of the Closing Date and shall give effect to the Conversion as of the Conversion Date, and in each case shall allocate pursuant to Section 706 of the Code (and the Treasury Regulations thereunder) between the Buyer and the other partners of DCMH based on an interim closing of the books as of the Closing Date, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to the taxable year of DCMH in which the Closing Date occurs.

(b)    Transfer Taxes. CCOC, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, shall each be liable for fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions and shall timely pay such Transfer Taxes. Any Tax Returns that must be filed in connection with Transfer Taxes shall be prepared and filed by the Party primarily or customarily responsible under applicable Law for filing such Tax Returns, and such party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide such Tax Returns to the other Parties at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date such Tax Returns are due to be filed.

(c)    754 Elections. To the extent a valid election under Section 754 of the Code (and any corresponding provisions of state and local law) is not in effect for DCMH or any Subsidiary thereof that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then CCOC shall cause DCMH to make or cause to be made such election(s) in the prescribed time and manner required for such election(s) to be effective for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date.

Section 7.6    Certain Filings. CCOC shall cause the Digital Colony Companies to make appropriate filings with respect to their investment advisory status as soon as reasonably practicable with all jurisdictions in which any such Digital Colony Company has a place of business and in each other jurisdiction where it is necessary for any such Digital Colony Company to make such filings in order to conduct its businesses after the Closing.

Section 7.7    [Reserved].

Section 7.8    CFIUS.

(a)    Cooperation During Regulatory Decision Period.

(i)    During the Regulatory Decision Period, the Buyer, CCOC and DCMH shall cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain CFIUS Approval as promptly as practicable, including by (A) promptly submitting a draft of the joint notice to CFIUS (“CFIUS Notice”) contemplated under 31 C.F.R. § 800.501(g) with respect to the Contemplated Transactions; (B) as promptly as practicable after receiving feedback from CFIUS regarding the draft CFIUS Notice referenced in clause (A), a formal CFIUS Notice as contemplated by 31 C.F.R. § 800.501(a); (C) cooperating with each other in connection with any such filing or the provision of any such information (including, to the extent permitted by applicable law, providing copies, or portions thereof, of all such documents to the non-filing party prior to filing and considering all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in connection therewith); and (D) taking such actions, including agreement to risk mitigation measures, as may be requested by CFIUS as a condition of CFIUS Approval, subject to the limitations in 7.8(a)(iii) and (iv) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, Buyer shall bear sole responsibility for paying any filing fee for the CFIUS Notice.

(ii)    In furtherance of Section 7.8(a)(i), Buyer, CCOC and DCMH shall cooperate with each other in connection with any such filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of CFIUS or any other Governmental Authority under the DPA with respect to any such filing, including by (1) allowing each other to have a reasonable opportunity to review in advance and comment on drafts of filings and submissions to CFIUS, (2) promptly informing each other of any communication received by a Party, or given by a Party to, CFIUS by promptly providing copies to the other Party of any such written communication, except for any exhibits to such communications providing the personal identifying information required by 31 C.F.R. §800.502(b)(5)(vi), information otherwise requested by CFIUS to remain confidential or information reasonably determined by a Party to be business confidential information and (3) permitting each other to review in advance any communication that a Party gives to CFIUS, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting, telephone call or conference with CFIUS, and to the extent not prohibited by CFIUS, give each other the opportunity to attend and participate in any telephonic conferences or in-person meetings with CFIUS.

(iii)    Nothing in this Section 7.8(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall require Buyer to (w) take any action that would violate any Law applicable to Buyer,

(x) sell, divest or dispose of any assets or businesses that it holds apart from the transactions contemplated by this agreement, (y) agree to actions or restrictions relating to the assets or businesses of Buyer or its Affiliates to the extent those assets and businesses do not involve interstate commerce in the United States, or (z) otherwise adopt conditions or restrictions that would reasonably be expected to frustrate the Buyer’s ability to receive NFRE with respect to the Digital Colony Business (subject to such NFRE being distributable to Buyer pursuant to the A&R DCMH Agreement).

(iv)    Nothing in this Section 7.8(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall require any of CCOC, Colony Capital, any other members of the Colony Capital Group or the Digital Colony Companies (collectively, the “DCP Parties”) to agree, as a condition of obtaining the CFIUS Approval to: (A) take or agree to take any action with respect to (1) the DCP Parties or their respective Affiliates, including any direct or indirect or pending (as of the date of this Agreement) investment funds or portfolio companies of investment funds advised or managed by one or more of the DCP Parties or their respective Affiliates, including selling, divesting, conveying, holding separate, or otherwise limiting its freedom of action with respect to any assets, rights, products, licenses, businesses, operations, or interest therein, of any DCP Party or any such Affiliates or any direct or indirect or pending (as of the date of this Agreement) investment funds or portfolio companies of investment funds advised or managed by one or more of the DCP Parties or their respective Affiliates, or (2) the selling, divesting, conveying or holding separate with respect to any assets, rights, products, licenses, businesses, operations, or interests therein, of any of the DCP Parties in more than a de minimis respect; or (B) be required to accept or agree to a Burdensome Condition.

(b)    Alternative Transaction Cooperation. The Wafra Representative shall have the right, if CFIUS Approval is not obtained within nine (9) months of filing the CFIUS Notice, to the extent permitted by CFIUS (the “Alternate Transaction Election Right”), to enter into good faith discussions with Colony Capital with respect to implementing an alternate transaction by delivering a written notice to such effect to Colony Capital. In such event, the Parties hereto shall cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to undergo alternate transactions to accomplish the same economic effects as the Contemplated Transactions with respect to Buyer’s right to receive Available Cash, as adjusted pursuant to its economic entitlements under the DCMH Investor Rights Agreement (including Section 3.4(a) thereof) and the A&R DCMH Agreement, without the need to obtain CFIUS Approval; provided, that if so requested by Wafra by written notice at least forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration of the Regulatory Decision Period, Colony Capital shall implement a revenue sharing arrangement with respect to the right of Buyer to receive Available Cash, as adjusted pursuant to its economic entitlements under the DCMH Investor Rights Agreement and the A&R DCMH Agreement that is substantially similar to the revenue sharing arrangement set forth in the Carried Interest Participation Agreement with respect to Carried Interest, it being agreed and understood that any alternate transaction (including any revenue sharing arrangement) shall be subject to any specific requirement of the DPA and CFIUS and applicable law. The Parties will enter into documentation implementing such arrangement. In the event the Regulatory Decision Period is extended in accordance with this Agreement, the Parties obligations pursuant to this Section 7.8(b) shall immediately terminate.

Section 8.1    Expiration of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. All of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement made at the Closing Date shall survive the Closing and shall terminate and expire, and shall cease to be of any force or effect, on the date that is the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, other than (a) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.1 (Organization), Section 4.2(a) (Authority), Section 4.3 (Title), Section 4.6 (Brokers and Finders), Section 5.1 (Organization, Etc.), Section 5.2 (Capital Structure), Section 5.3 (Authority; Validity of Agreements), Section 5.5 (No Conflicts), Section 5.17 (Taxes.), Section 5.21 (Net Working Capital) and Section 5.23 (Brokers and Finders) (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”), (b) Section 4.4 (Compliance with Law) and Section 5.14 (Compliance with Law; Government Regulation) (collectively, the “Compliance with Law Representation”) and (c) Section 6.1 (Organization), Section 6.2(a) (Authority) and Section 6.7 (Brokers and Finders) (collectively, the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”), which Fundamental Representations and Buyer Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect until the date that is sixty (60) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations and which Compliance with Law Representation shall survive the Closing hereunder and shall continue in full force and effect until the six (6) year anniversary of the Closing Date. Each covenant or other agreement herein shall survive the Closing hereunder until performed in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII is delivered pursuant to Section 8.4 within the applicable survival period set forth above, such survival period shall be extended until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved.

Section 8.2    Result of Breach of Representation or Warranty; Indemnification.

(a)    Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, CCOC shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Buyer Indemnitee for any Losses incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnitees to the extent resulting from or arising out of:

(i)    the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Article IV or Article V of this Agreement (which breach and any related Losses shall be determined without giving effect to any materiality, “Digital Colony Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifier (other than the fourth and fifth uses of the term “material” in Section 5.15(c), each use of the term “material” in the definitions of “Digital Colony Business”, “Digital Colony Personnel”, “Digital Infrastructure” and “Material Contract” and the use of the term “Material Contract” itself));

(ii)    the breach of any covenant or agreement of CCOC or Colony Capital contained in this Agreement;

(iii)    (A) the Excluded Assets and (B) the Digital Bridge Acquisition Agreement; provided, that in the case of this clause (B), to the extent in respect of employment agreements and agreements related to Carried Interest such indemnification

obligation shall be limited to Losses arising out of, relating to or in connection with the period prior to the date hereof;

(iv)    any liabilities or obligations (x) for any Taxes imposed (regardless of when imposed) on or with respect to, or incurred by or with respect to, any Digital Colony Company or any Digital Colony Fund (including any Taxes or other amounts imposed under the Partnership Audit Rules), in each case, that is attributable to any taxable period beginning on or before and ending on or before the Closing Date (or, for any period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, liabilities and obligations for Taxes to the extent allocable to the portion of such period beginning on or before and ending on the Closing Date), (y) for any Taxes of a Person (other than a Digital Colony Company) for which any Digital Colony Company becomes liable (A) as a result of such Digital Colony Company being a member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined, unitary or similar group for Tax purposes prior to the Closing, or (B) as a result of transferor or successor liability, as a result of the operation of Law or by Contract or assumption or otherwise, in each case as a result of a transaction or event occurring prior to the Closing, or (z) for the payment of any amounts as a result of any Digital Colony Company or Digital Colony Fund entering into or being a party to any Tax Sharing Agreement prior to the Closing or as a result of any express or implied obligation to indemnify any other Person with respect to the payment of any amounts described in this clause (iv) of this Section 8.2(a), whether disputed or not; or

(v)    any Proceeding initiated or maintained by or on behalf of an equity holder of Colony Capital in connection with or related to entering into the Contemplated Transactions except to the extent such Proceeding is based on facts, circumstances or events arising from the actual fraud of the Buyer Indemnitees. The foregoing exception shall not apply to, and indemnification shall be available for, any Proceeding against any Buyer Indemnitee to the extent such Proceeding is based on a theory that such Buyer Indemnitee aided and abetted or conspired with Colony Capital or any of its Affiliates, or is jointly, derivatively or secondarily liable with any Colony Capital or any of its Affiliates.

In calculating the amount of Losses suffered by the Buyer Indemnitees for purposes of Section 8.2(a), and subject to the other limitations set forth in this Article VIII, such Losses will take into account the Buyer’s interest in DCMH (including for determining the amount of Losses suffered by Buyer as a result of adverse consequences to CCOC or Colony Capital in connection with any applicable breach and in respect of any indemnification payments to the Buyer Indemnitees made by CCOC).

(b)    Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of CCOC and Colony Capital and their respective Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, members, partners, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (the “Digital Colony Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the Digital Colony Indemnitees to the extent arising from or arising out of (c) the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Article VI of this Agreement (which breach and any related Losses shall be

determined without giving effect to any materiality or similar qualifier) or (d) the breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement.

Section 8.3    Limitations.

(a)    No Buyer Indemnitee will assert any claim (each an “Indemnity Claim”) for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) until such time that the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds $1,500,000 (the “Deductible”) (except (i) in the case of actual fraud or (ii) with respect to any Fundamental Representation, with respect to which the Deductible shall be deemed to be zero), in which case such Buyer Indemnitee will be entitled to recover all Losses in excess of the applicable Deductible. CCOC’s aggregate liability in respect of any indemnification obligation for Losses under Section 8.2(a)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to $1,901,812.50 less the Deductible (the “CCOC Retention”) (except (x) no limit shall apply in the case of actual fraud, (y) in respect of any Indemnity Claim pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) for which coverage is not obtained under the Buyer Insurance Policy as a result of (I) in the case of a breach or inaccuracy of any Compliance with Law Representation or Fundamental Representation, such claim having been rejected due to the fact that the policy limit under the Buyer Insurance Policy has been reached, (II) in the case of a breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation, the Buyer Insurance Policy having expired or (III) in case of any representation set forth in Article IV or Article V, coverage being denied under the Buyer Insurance Policy as a result of a Specified Exclusion, in each case, CCOC shall provide indemnification in respect of such Indemnity Claim up to the Supplemental Indemnification Hurdle and (z) CCOC shall provide the applicable CCOC Supplemental Indemnification in respect of breaches of any Fundamental Representation (with respect to which the Deductible shall be deemed to be zero) or Compliance with Law Representation, as described below). To the extent the Buyer Indemnitees have incurred Losses in excess of the sum of the applicable Deductible, the CCOC Retention and twenty percent (20%) of the Total Cap (such sum being referred to as the “Supplemental Indemnification Hurdle”) (A) with respect to breaches or inaccuracies of the Compliance with Law Representation, CCOC shall provide indemnification for Losses that are in excess of the Supplemental Indemnification Hurdle and that are less than or equal to the difference between (1) 50% of the Total Cap minus (2) any indemnification previously provided by CCOC to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to clause (B) of this sentence minus (3) the Contingent Indemnification Amount, if any minus (4) any indemnification previously provided by CCOC pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i) of the Carry Investment Agreement (the “Compliance with Law Cap”) and (B) with respect to breaches or inaccuracies of any Fundamental Representation, CCOC shall provide indemnification for Losses that are in excess of the Supplemental Indemnification Hurdle and that are less than or equal to the difference between (1) the Total Cap minus (2) any indemnification previously provided by CCOC to the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to clause (A) of this sentence minus (3) the Contingent Indemnification Amount, if any minus (4) any indemnification previously provided by CCOC pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i) of the Carry Investment Agreement (the indemnification obligations described in clauses (A) and (B), each a “CCOC Supplemental Indemnification”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, CCOC’s aggregate liability in respect of any obligation for Losses under Section 8.2(a) (except in the case of actual fraud, or Section 8.2(a)(iii), (iv) or (v)), shall not exceed an amount equal to the Wafra Investment Amount (without taking into account any reduction pursuant to Section 8.3(f)) (the “Total Cap”) minus any indemnification previously provided by CCOC pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of the Carry Investment Agreement. For purposes of calculating the Supplemental

Indemnification Hurdle, indemnification previously provided by CCOC pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i) of the Carry Investment Agreement shall be deemed Losses.

(b)    No Digital Colony Indemnitee will assert any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) until such time that the aggregate amount of (i) Losses and (ii) indemnification previously provided by W-Catalina (C) LLC pursuant to Section 6.2(b) of the Carry Investment Agreement for breach or inaccuracy of the W-Catalina (C) Non-Fundamental Representations exceeds the Deductible (except in the case of actual fraud or in respect of breaches of any Buyer Fundamental Representation, with respect to which the Deductible shall not apply), in which case such Digital Colony Indemnitee will be entitled to recover all Losses in excess of the Deductible. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer’s aggregate liability (A) in respect of any obligation for Losses under Section 8.2(b)(i) and indemnification previously provided by W-Catalina (C) LLC pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(i) of the Carry Investment Agreement for breach or inaccuracy of the W-Catalina (C) Non-Fundamental Representations shall not exceed an amount equal to 20% of the Total Cap (except in the case of actual fraud or in respect of breaches of any Buyer Fundamental Representation) and (B) in respect of any obligation for Losses under Section 8.2(b) and any indemnification previously provided by W-Catalina (C) LLC pursuant to Section 6.2(b) of the Carry Investment Agreement (except in the case of actual fraud), shall not exceed an amount equal to the Total Cap.

(c)    The amount of any indemnification payable under this Article VIII in respect of a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 shall be reduced by an amount equal to the proceeds actually received by a Buyer Indemnitee or Digital Colony Indemnitee, as applicable, under any insurance policy (other than the Buyer Insurance Policy which is addressed in Section 8.3(d)) or from any third party in respect of such claim less all actual and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Buyer Indemnitee or Digital Colony Indemnitee in connection with obtaining such insurance proceeds or third-party recovery (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, any deductible, any retention, any retroactive premium adjustment on the account of, or arising from, such claim or Losses, and the present value of any increases in insurance premiums on the account of or arising from such claim or Losses, or the cost of cancellation of such insurance policy and any increased costs for any replacement policy). Each Buyer Indemnitee and Digital Colony Indemnitee shall use its, his or her commercially reasonable efforts to pursue any insurance recovery (other than under the Buyer Insurance Policy which is addressed in Section 8.3(d)) or third-party recovery available to it with respect to any Loss for which such Buyer Indemnitee or Digital Colony Indemnitee seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (including during the period following any payment to such Buyer Indemnitee in respect of such indemnification); provided, that the possibility that insurance proceeds may be realized by such Buyer Indemnitee or Digital Colony Indemnitee shall not delay payment or indemnification of such Losses by the Party against whom indemnification is sought pursuant to this Article VIII. If any Person has paid an amount in discharge of any Indemnity Claim and the indemnified Person recovers from an insurance policy (other than the Buyer Insurance Policy which is addressed in Section 8.3(d)) or from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates such Person in respect of the Losses which are the subject matter of such claim, such Person shall pay to the Indemnifying Party as soon as practicable after receipt thereof an amount equal to the lower of (i) the amount actually received by such Person from the Indemnifying Party in respect of such claim and (ii) any sum recovered from the third party, in each case, less all reasonable out-of-pocket

costs and expenses incurred by such Buyer Indemnitee or Digital Colony Indemnitee in connection with obtaining such insurance proceeds or third-party recovery and any Tax suffered thereon.

(d)    Except in the case of actual fraud, the CCOC Retention, the CCOC Supplemental Indemnification or the obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees as described in Section 8.3(a)(y), the Buyer Indemnitees’ sole source of recovery for any Indemnity Claim pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) shall be the Buyer Insurance Policy and not direct payment by any other Party to this Agreement. Buyer shall, and shall cause each other Buyer Indemnitee to use its, his or her commercially reasonable best efforts to, pursue any insurance recovery under the Buyer Insurance Policy with respect to any Loss for which such Buyer Indemnitee seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII and Buyer shall and shall cause each such Buyer Indemnitee to take such action as may be reasonably requested by CCOC to pursue recovery under the Buyer Insurance Policy with respect to such Loss. Buyer shall submit any bona fide claims pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i) to the insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy so as to cause the retention to be satisfied, notwithstanding that such claim may not be in excess of the Deductible. Buyer shall provide any correspondence with the insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy to CCOC concurrently if made by Buyer and promptly if received by Buyer; provided, that Buyer’s failure to provide copies of any such correspondence shall not affect the indemnification obligations of CCOC unless CCOC is actually materially prejudiced by failure to give such notice. CCOC will only be liable for the CCOC Supplemental Indemnification if such claim has first been submitted to the insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy and (i) such claim has been rejected due to the fact that the policy limit under the Buyer Insurance Policy has been reached, (ii) the Buyer Insurance Policy has expired or (iii) coverage is denied under the Buyer Insurance Policy as a result of a Specified Exclusion. For the avoidance of doubt, claims need not be submitted to the insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy if the applicable coverage period under the Buyer Insurance Policy has expired.

(e)    No Person shall be entitled to recover from an Indemnifying Party or any Affiliate thereof more than once with respect to the same Loss (i.e. no double-counting). For the avoidance of doubt, claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 may be made based upon a liability which is contingent at the time such claim is made; provided, however, that no Person shall be entitled to recover with respect to any such claim unless and until such liability becomes an actual liability.

(f)    If any CCOC Supplemental Indemnification is paid prior to the date that the Contingent Consideration Amount is payable, the Contingent Consideration Amount is subsequently payable, and the amount of the applicable CCOC Supplemental Indemnification that would have been paid would have increased if the payment of the Contingent Consideration Amount had previously occurred (the amount of any such increase being the “Contingent Indemnification Amount”), then the Contingent Consideration Amount payable shall be reduced by the Contingent Indemnification Amount, which shall fully satisfy CCOC’s obligations with respect to the Contingent Consideration Amount.

Section 8.4    Claims Notice.

(a)    Except with respect to Third Party Claims covered by Section 8.4(b), any Buyer Indemnitee, Digital Colony Indemnitee or other indemnified party who is entitled to, and wishes to, make a claim for indemnification for a Loss pursuant to Section 8.2 (an “Indemnitee”)

shall give written notice to each Person from whom such indemnification is being claimed (an “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after it acquires knowledge of the fact, event or circumstances giving rise to the claim for the Loss. The failure to make timely delivery of such notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder, except to the extent such Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by failure to give such notice. Together with such written notice, the Indemnitee shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such material information and documents as the Indemnitee has in its possession regarding such claim and all material pertinent information in its possession regarding the amount of the Loss that it asserts it has sustained or incurred, including any limitations in this Article VIII that apply to such Loss. The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such notice and such evidence to agree to the payment of the Loss to the Indemnitee, subject to such limitations. If the Indemnifying Party does not agree to the payment of the Loss within such 30-day period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed not to have accepted the Loss and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to seek a resolution of such dispute within fifteen (15) days thereafter. If the dispute is not resolved through such negotiations, then (x) any dispute as to the value of the Loss (if the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing that such a Loss exists) will be resolved by an independent valuation firm of national standing (the “Valuation Firm”) jointly selected by the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party (and, if the Parties are unable to agree upon a Valuation Firm, then the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party shall each select an independent valuation firm of national standing, and the two (2) valuation firms so selected shall select a third (3^rd) independent valuation firm of national standing to act as the Valuation Firm) and (y) any other dispute (including as to whether a Loss exists) shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.11. The determination of the dispute by the Valuation Firm shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto, except in the case of manifest error or fraud. The costs of the Valuation Firm shall be allocated between the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party by the Valuation Firm in proportion to the extent that either of the Indemnitee or the Indemnifying Party did not prevail on the amount of the disputed Loss as submitted to the Valuation Firm. If the Indemnifying Party agrees to the payment of the Loss (subject to any limitations set forth in this Article VIII that apply to such Loss) within the 30-day period described above, then it shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such agreement, pay to the Indemnitee the amount of the Loss that is payable pursuant to, and subject to the limitations set forth in, this Article VIII.

(b)    If any claim or action at law or suit in equity is instituted by a third party against an Indemnitee (each, a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which such Indemnitee is entitled to, and wishes to, make a claim for indemnification for a Loss under Section 8.2, then such Indemnitee shall promptly, and in any event promptly after such Indemnitee has knowledge of an assertion of liability from such third party, deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice describing, to the extent practicable, such matter in reasonable detail, including the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee and any limitations in this Article VIII that apply to such Loss. The failure to make timely delivery of such written notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder, except to the extent such Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by failure to give such timely notice. In any event, such delivery shall be accompanied by any material information and documents in such Indemnitee’s possession related to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party may, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.4, settle, compromise or defend, at such Indemnifying

Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the Indemnitee in respect of the Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party shall elect to settle, compromise or defend such asserted liability, then it shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such election (or sooner, if the nature of the asserted liability so requires), notify the Indemnitee of its intention to do so and the Indemnitee shall cooperate to the fullest extent possible, at the request and reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party, in the compromise of, or defense against, such asserted liability; provided, that no settlement or compromise of any Third Party Claim shall be made without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except where such settlement or compromise involves only the payment of money and the express, complete and unconditional release of any and all claims against the Indemnitee (and liabilities and obligations with respect thereto) and only to the extent that such money is paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not be released from any obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder with respect to such asserted claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, unless the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnitee a duly executed agreement settling or compromising such claim with no monetary liability to, or injunctive relief against, or other obligation of the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party shall have the sole right, except as provided below in this Section 8.4, to conduct and control the defense of any Third Party Claim. Subject to the following sentence, all costs and fees incurred with respect to any such claim shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in, at its own expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of any such Third Party Claim (and may control the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim only if the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume such control or is not permitted to assume such control pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.4); provided, that (A) if there exists a conflict or potential conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the judgment of outside legal counsel to the Indemnitee, for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party, (B) such Third Party Claim (i) is brought by a Governmental Authority in connection with a criminal or regulatory Proceeding or (ii) primarily seeks (x) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnitee or (y) a finding or admission of a violation of Law by the Indemnitee that would have an adverse effect on the Indemnitee other than as a result of monetary damages, (C) the amount in dispute exceeds the maximum amount for which an Indemnifying Party would reasonably be expected to be liable pursuant to this Article VIII in light of the limitations on indemnification herein, if applicable, or (D) if the Indemnifying Party fails to diligently and reasonably defend the Indemnitee, then the Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain one separate counsel of its own choosing(in addition to any necessary local counsel), and the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such separate counsel, which fees and expenses shall be reimbursed to the Indemnitee by the Indemnifying Party within thirty (30) days of a request therefor. If the Indemnifying Party shall choose to defend any claim, then the Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents within its direct control that relate to the defense of such matter, and cooperate in all reasonable ways with, and make its employees and advisors and other personnel available or otherwise render reasonable assistance to, the Indemnifying Party and its agents. The Indemnitee may not settle any Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if a majority of the aggregate amount of Losses arising from such settlement are to be indemnified by the Indemnifying Party under the terms of this Article VIII (or, if CCOC is the

applicable Indemnifying Party, such Losses are being paid with proceeds from the Buyer Insurance Policy (other than with respect to any Losses (or portion thereof) within the retention under the Buyer Insurance Policy)).

(c)    The Indemnifying Parties shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitee in connection with Third Party Claims, including, if and as requested by the Indemnitee, by providing any documents or other information relevant to a claim for indemnification hereunder, making its directors, officers and other representatives reasonably available in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or compromise of any such claim, and assisting as necessary in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or compromise thereof.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent the procedures in this Section 8.4 are in conflict with the procedures in the Buyer Insurance Policy with regard to matters such as notice, control, settlement or defense of claims, the procedures in the Buyer Insurance Policy shall control, but this Section 8.4(d) shall not relieve any Buyer Indemnitee from its obligations under this Agreement with respect to CCOC. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party shall and shall cause its agents and advisors to reasonably cooperate with the insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy in connection with the defense, compromise or settlement of any matter which might reasonably constitute a Loss. The insurer under the Buyer Insurance Policy shall have the right to participate in the defense and settlement of any Third Party Claim or other matter reasonably likely to be covered by the Buyer Insurance Policy to the extent so provided in the Buyer Insurance Policy.

Section 8.5    Exclusive Remedy. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement, other than in respect of (i) claims relating to actual fraud and (ii) the right to seek specific performance for a breach of a covenant or agreement to be performed by a Party hereto, the provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the Parties with respect to any and all claims arising out of or in connection with a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.5 shall limit the right of any Party to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding for injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to the extent provided in Section 9.8.

Section 8.6    Tax Treatment. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties agree to treat any payment made pursuant to this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Management Interests Consideration Amount for all Tax purposes.

Section 8.7    Indemnity Payment. Any payment made by any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Article VIII shall be made promptly (and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days) following (a) settlement of any claim in accordance with Section 8.4, or (b) upon entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of a final and non-appealable judgment or order or judgment or order not timely appealed.

Section 8.8    Buyer Insurance Policy. Buyer agrees that it shall not amend the terms of the Buyer Insurance Policy in a manner adverse to CCOC without the prior written consent of CCOC.

Section 9.1    Amendments; Extension; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified except by written instrument executed by the Wafra Representative and the Digital Colony Representative. The failure by any Party hereto to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of any such provision nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of such Party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of or non-compliance with this Agreement shall be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach or non-compliance. The observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived in writing by the Party that will lose the benefit of such provision as a result of such waiver.

Section 9.2    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Schedules and any documents executed by the Parties simultaneously herewith or pursuant hereto, including the Ancillary Agreements, constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings or agreements, whether oral or written (including the Confidentiality Agreement) among the Parties with respect to such subject matter.

Section 9.6    Binding Effect; No Assignment.

(a)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by CCOC or Colony Capital without the prior written consent of the Wafra Representative, and any purported assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be void and unenforceable. No Buyer may assign, transfer or pledge all or any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Digital Colony Representative, and any purported assignment, transfer or pledge without such consent shall be void and unenforceable; provided, that the consent of any other Person shall not be required for an assignment by Buyer to (a) one or more of Affiliates of Buyer; provided, further, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement or (b) one or more Persons to whom Buyer transfers all or any portion of its Purchased Interests in accordance with the Ancillary Agreements.

(b)    Upon any transfer by Buyer in accordance with the Ancillary Agreements of any right, benefit or obligation hereunder, any reference to “Buyer” hereunder shall refer to such transferee to the extent such right, benefit or obligation has been transferred to such transferee.

(c)    Buyer shall have the right to exercise any of their rights hereunder individually and in part and with respect to themselves or with respect to themselves and other applicable Wafra Entities, to the extent (i) permitted by an agreement among such parties, and (ii)

the Party or Parties exercising such rights hereunder would otherwise have the right to exercise such rights but for this Section 9.6(c).

Section 9.7    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or .pdf format scanned signatures and in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signatory Parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together, be deemed an original, and shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 9.8    Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage may 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. Accordingly, the Parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies, each Party shall be entitled to seek to enforce the terms of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy. Each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. Each Party further agrees that no such Party shall oppose the granting of an injunction or specific performance as provided herein on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

Section 9.9    No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties, the Buyer Indemnitees (solely in their capacity as indemnified parties hereunder) and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 9.10    Governing Law. This Agreement, the legal relations among the Parties hereunder and the adjudication and the enforcement thereof and any disputes relating to or arising from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based in contract, tort, or otherwise), shall in all respects be governed by, and interpreted and construed in accordance with, the Laws (excluding conflict of laws rules and principles) of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, and statutes of limitations.

Section 9.11    Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in the borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, or if such court does not have jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions. To the extent that service of process by mail is permitted by applicable Law, each Party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such suit, action or other proceeding in such courts by the mailing of such process by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at its address for notices provided for herein. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Person to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions in (a) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or (b) the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an

inconvenient forum. The Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection therewith and for any counterclaim with respect thereto.

Section 9.12    No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim, action, suit or other legal proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as Parties herein and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Parties. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or other representative of any Party or of any Affiliate of any Party, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any Party under this Agreement or for any claim or action based on, in respect of or by reason of the Contemplated Transactions.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon receiving CFIUS Approval, the Convertible Preferred Interests shall automatically convert into Common Interests (the “Conversion”) as if Buyer held such Common Interests from the Closing. Promptly following the Conversion, DCMH shall update its books and records to reflect the applicable Specified Percentage of Buyer in respect of the Common Interests held by it. For the avoidance of doubt, upon Conversion Buyer shall not be entitled to any portion of the accrued Preferred Dividend in excess of the distributions described in Section 1(c)(i) below.

(b)    Preferred Dividend. The “Preferred Dividend” on the Convertible Preferred Interests held by Buyer shall be an amount equal to the greater of (x) the amount the holders of the Convertible Preferred Interests would be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii)(x) of the Limited Liability Company Agreement of DCMH as if such Preferred Units had been converted to Common Interests, and (y) an annual dividend equal to the product of (i) 10% and (ii) the Convertible Preferred Interests Consideration Amount, accruing simple interest daily and payable quarterly in arrears commencing on the date hereof, calculated on the basis of a 365 (or 366 as the case may be) day year.

(c)    Distributions. Distributions with respect to the Convertible Preferred Interests shall be made in accordance with Section 7.2(a) of the A&R DCMH Agreement.

(d)    CFIUS Approval Redemption Right. If CFIUS Approval is not obtained prior to the expiration of the Regulatory Decision Period, then, at any time during the forty-five (45) day period following the end of the Regulatory Decision Period, DCMH shall have the right to redeem all of the Purchased Interests by written notice to the Buyer (the “CFIUS Redemption Right”) for an amount in cash equal to (i) the Wafra Investment Amount, plus (ii) the Preferred Dividend, minus (iii) any distributions received (including Preferred Dividends or under the Carried Interest Participation Agreement, but not in respect of the Sponsor Commitments or Identified Sponsor Commitments), in each case, determined as of the CFIUS Redemption Date (the “CFIUS Redemption Amount”); provided that for purposes of determining the Preferred Dividend, in the event that the Regulatory Decision Period was extended from twelve (12) months to fifteen (15), the Preferred Dividend will be deemed to have not accrued during such three (3) month extension period. In the event that DCMH exercises the CFIUS Redemption Right, the Buyer shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to DCMH within thirty (30) days following receipt of the redemption notice referenced above, to cause DCMH to effect a redemption of any funded Sponsor Commitments or Identified Sponsor Commitments utilizing the NAV of the Digital Colony Funds for the most recent fiscal quarter, and taking into account any contributions or distributions made between the date of such NAV and the closing date of the redemption of such Sponsor Commitments and Identified Sponsor Commitments, in which case such amount shall be added to the CFIUS Redemption Amount. The redemptions contemplated herein and the payment of the CFIUS Redemption Amount shall occur no less than thirty-one (31), and no more than one hundred

twenty (120) days from delivery of the notice of redemption referenced above (such applicable date, “CFIUS Redemption Date”). In the event that the CFIUS Redemption Amount is not paid in cash on the CFIUS Redemption Date, the redemption transactions will either be unwound and will be deemed to have never occurred or the CFIUS Redemption Amount shall accrue interest daily at a rate of 10%, compounding quarterly, until such time that the CFIUS Redemption Amount plus all accrued interest is paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) if the CFIUS Redemption Right is not exercised, then the Convertible Preferred Interests shall remain outstanding unless the CFIUS Approval is subsequently obtained and will be entitled to the distributions set forth in Section 7.2(a) of the A&R DCMH Agreement and (2) if the CFIUS Redemption Right is exercised and such redemption is consummated, the Carried Interest Participation Agreement and the Warrants shall automatically terminate without the taking of any further action. In connection with the CFIUS Redemption Right, Buyer shall enter into appropriate agreements containing customary representations and warranties with respect to its due organization, authority and free and clear title of the relevant interests and other appropriate terms.

(a)    Liquidation Preference. If, prior to the Conversion, a Liquidation Event occurs, DCMH shall cause Buyer to be paid, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive, a payment, in priority to any distribution to any other Person, equal to:

(i)    in respect of Buyer’s Convertible Preferred Interests in DCMH, the Convertible Preferred Interests Consideration Amount, plus (1) the Preferred Dividend, minus (2) all distributions paid in respect of the Convertible Preferred Interests (the payment described in this clause (i), the “Liquidation Preference”).

(b)    Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, any payment made or caused to be made to Buyer with respect to the Convertible Preferred Interests in the event of a Liquidation Event shall be made prior to and in preference to any liquidating distribution or other payment to the Common Interests. After payment of the full amount of the Liquidation Preference to which Buyer is entitled with respect to the Convertible Preferred Interests, Buyer, as the holder of the applicable Convertible Preferred Interests, will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of DCMH.

(c)    Notice. Written notice of any Liquidation Event, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the Liquidation Preference shall be payable, shall be given by DCMH to the Wafra Representative not less than fifteen (15) nor more than thirty (30) days prior to the payment date stated therein, with respect to Buyer’s Convertible Preferred Interests.

Section 3. Construction. In the event of any inconsistency between the Organizational Documents of DCMH and the terms of this Annex, the terms of the Organizational Documents of DCMH shall prevail. Capitalized terms used in this Annex but not defined therein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Investment Agreement.
