(i) to vote (or cause to be voted) or execute and deliver a written consent (or cause a written consent to be executed and delivered) at any meeting of the members of BB, however called, or at any adjournment thereof, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the members of BB is sought (and appear at any such meeting, in person or by proxy, or otherwise cause all of such holder’s Subject BB Equity Securities to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum), all of such Required Member’s Subject BB Equity Securities:

(ii) not to commit or agree to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing.

5. Representations and Warranties. The Required Members severally and not jointly represent and warrant to Acquiror and the Company, and only with respect to itself, as follows:

(a) Such Required Member is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Required Member’s corporate, limited liability company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company, or organizational actions on the part of such Required Member. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Required Member and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of such Required Member, enforceable against such Required Member in accordance with the terms hereof (except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy Laws, other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and general principles of equity affecting the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies).

(b) Such Required Member is the record and beneficial owner (as defined in the Securities Act) of, and has good title to, all of its Subject BB Equity Securities, and there exist no Liens or any other limitation or restriction (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such Subject BB Equity Securities (other than transfer restrictions under the Securities Act)) affecting any such Subject BB Equity Securities, other than Liens pursuant to (i) this Agreement, (ii) the Company’s Organizational Documents, (iii) the Merger Agreement, or (iv) any applicable securities Laws. Such Required Member’s Subject BB Equity Securities are the only equity securities of the Company owned of record or beneficially by such Required Member on the date of this Agreement, and none of such Required Member’s Subject BB Equity Securities are subject to any proxy, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such Subject BB Equity Securities, except as provided hereunder. Such Required Member does not hold or own any rights to acquire (directly or indirectly) any equity securities of the Acquiror or any equity securities convertible into, or which can be exchanged for, equity securities of the Acquiror.

(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Required Member does not, and the performance by such Required Member of its obligations hereunder will not, (i) conflict with or result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Required Member, or (ii) require any consent or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any third party (including under any Contract binding upon such Required Member or such Required Member’s Subject BB Equity Securities), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Required Member of its obligations under this Agreement.

 

3


(d) There are no Actions pending against such Required Member or, to the knowledge of such Required Members, threatened against such Required Member, before (or, in the case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Authority, which in any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by such Required Member of its obligations under this Agreement.

(e) Except as described on Schedule 4.24 to the Merger Agreement, no broker, finder, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee, underwriting fee, deferred underwriting fee, commission or other similar payment in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by such Required Member, for which the Company or any of its Affiliates may become liable.

(f) Such Required Member understands and acknowledges that each of Acquiror and each Company Party is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Required Members’ execution and delivery of this Agreement.

6. Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate, without any notice or other action by any Party, and be void ab initio upon the earlier of (a) the Effective Time and (b) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. Upon termination of this Agreement as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, none of the Parties shall have any further obligations or liabilities under, or with respect to, this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the termination of this Agreement shall not affect any liability on the part of any Party for a Willful Breach of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement prior to such termination or Fraud, (ii) Sections 6 through 8 shall each survive the termination of this Agreement, and (iii) Sections 10 through 18 shall each survive the termination of this Agreement solely to the extent related to any surviving sections. For purposes of this Section 6, (A) “Willful Breach” means a material breach that is a consequence of an act undertaken or a failure to act by the breaching Party with the actual knowledge (as opposed to constructive, imputed or implied knowledge) that the taking of such act or such failure to act will constitute or cause a breach of this Agreement and (B) “Fraud” means an act or omission by a Party, and requires: (I) a false or incorrect representation or warranty expressly set forth in this Agreement, (II) with actual knowledge (as opposed to constructive, imputed or implied knowledge) by the Party making such representation or warranty that such representation or warranty expressly set forth in this Agreement is false or incorrect, (III) an intention to deceive another Party, to induce him, her or it to enter into this Agreement, (IV) another Party’s justifiable or reasonable reliance upon such false or incorrect representation or warranty expressly set forth in this Agreement is the cause of such Party entering into this Agreement, and (V) causing such Party to suffer damage by reason of such reliance. For the avoidance of doubt, “Fraud” does not include any claim for equitable fraud, promissory fraud, unfair dealings fraud or any torts (including a claim for fraud or alleged fraud) based on negligence or recklessness.

7. No Recourse. Each Party agrees that (a) this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any action for breach of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties, and no claims of any nature whatsoever (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising under or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be asserted against any Company Non-Party Affiliate or any Acquiror Non-Party Affiliate, and (b) none of the Company Non-Party Affiliates or the Acquiror Non-Party Affiliates shall have any liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith, as expressly provided herein, or for any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to any information or materials of any kind furnished in connection with this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. For the purpose of this Section 7, (i) “Acquiror Non-Party Affiliate” means (A) any officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager, direct or indirect equityholder or Affiliate of either Acquiror or Sponsor and (B) each of the former, current or future Affiliates, Representatives, successors or permitted assigns of any of the Persons referred to in the immediately preceding clause (i)(A) (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, Acquiror) and (ii) “Company Non-Party Affiliate” means (A) any officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager, direct or indirect equityholder or Affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or any family member of the foregoing Persons and (B) each of the former, current or future Affiliates, Representatives, successors or permitted assigns of any of the Persons in the immediately preceding clause (ii)(A) (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

8. Fiduciary Duties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the Required Members make no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in the Required Members’ capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner of the Subject BB Equity Securities and (b) nothing herein will be construed to limit or affect any action or inaction expressly permitted under the Merger Agreement by any representative of the Required Members in such representative’s capacity as a member of the board of managers (or other similar governing body) of the Company or as an officer, employee or fiduciary of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, in each case, acting in such person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of the Company.

9. Further Assurances. From time to time, at the Company’s request and without further consideration, each Party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably requested to effect the actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Required Members further agree not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any action or claim, derivative or otherwise, against Acquiror, Acquiror’s Affiliates, the Company or the Company’s Affiliates or any of their respective successors and assigns challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any Party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other Party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 12. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
