(a)    Elective Exchanges.

(i)      Subject to Section 2.1(b) , and otherwise upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof and of the LLC Agreement, each Company Unitholder shall have the right from time to time (but subject to the Senior Unitholder Restriction, in the case of Senior Unitholders) to surrender Company Exchangeable Units, and, for each Company Class B Unit surrendered, a corresponding share of Class B Common Stock (in each case, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, rights of first refusal and similar restrictions, except for those arising under this Agreement and the LLC Agreement) to the Company and to thereby cause the Company to deliver to that Company Unitholder (or its designee) the Exchange Consideration as set forth herein (an “ Exchange ”).

(ii)    For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement or the LLC Agreement to the contrary: (A) no Exchange of Class B Units may be made without a concurrent Exchange of an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock; (B) the Corporation may elect to settle an Exchange, in whole or in part, by delivery of the Cash Settlement as to all or any portion of the total number of Company Exchangeable Units being surrendered and delivery of Class A Common Stock as to any remaining portion not satisfied by the Cash Settlement; (C) the Board (or a committee to which the Board has delegated such authority) may, in its sole discretion, deny or limit, in whole or in part, any Exchange that fails to comply with any requirements therefor that the Corporation, the Company, or the Board may have established, or that, if effected, would adversely affect the trading market in the Company's Common Stock. In particular, a Company Unitholder shall not be entitled to an Exchange, and the Corporation and Company shall have the right to refuse to honor any request for an Exchange, at any time or during any period if the Corporation or the Company determines based on the advice of counsel that such Exchange (x) would be prohibited by law or regulation (including, without limitation, the unavailability of a registration of such Exchange under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements thereof) or (y) would not be permitted under any agreement with the Corporation, the Company or any of their subsidiaries to which the applicable Company Unitholder is party (including, without limitation, the LLC Agreement) or (solely in the case of an Exchange requested by an officer, director or other personnel of the Corporation, the Company or any of their subsidiaries) any written policies of the Corporation related to restrictions on trading applicable to its officers, directors or other personnel.

(iii)    A Company Unitholder shall exercise its right to an Exchange of Company Exchangeable Units and, in the case of Company Class B Units, a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock, as set forth in Section 2.1(a) by delivering to the Company, with a contemporaneous copy delivered to the Corporation, in each case during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Company and the Corporation, respectively, (A) a written election of exchange in respect of the Company Exchangeable Units to be exchanged

substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (an “Exchange Notice”), duly executed by such Company Unitholder, (B) any certificates in such Company Unitholder’s possession representing such Company Exchangeable Units, (C) if applicable, any stock certificates in such Company Unitholder’s possession representing the shares of Class B Common Stock required to be surrendered in connection with an Exchange of Class B Units, and (D) such other information, documents or instruments as either the Company or the Corporation may reasonably require in connection with the Exchange. After the items specified in clauses (A)-(D) of the first sentence of this Section 2.1(a)(iii) have been delivered to the Company, and unless such Company Unitholder timely has delivered a Retraction Notice pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(v) or the Company has refused to honor the request in full pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(ii), the Company will effect the Exchange in accordance with its then-current policies and inform the Company Unitholder of the effective date of such Exchange (the “Exchange Date”). On the Exchange Date, all rights of the exchanging Company Unitholder as a holder of the Company Exchangeable Units and shares of Class B Common Stock that are subject to the Exchange shall cease, and unless the Corporation has elected Cash Settlement as to all Company Exchangeable Units tendered, such Company Unitholder (or its designee) shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder of the shares of Class A Common Stock to be received by the exchanging Company Unitholder in respect of such Exchange.

(iv)    At least two Business Days before the Exchange Date, the Corporation shall give written notice (the “Contribution Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to the exchanging Company Unitholders) of its intended settlement method; provided that if the Corporation does not timely deliver a Contribution Notice, the Corporation shall be deemed not to have elected the Cash Settlement method.

(v)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) a Company Unitholder may withdraw or amend its Exchange Notice, in whole or in part, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the Business Day immediately prior to the Exchange Date by giving written notice (the “ Retraction Notice ”) to the Company (with a copy to the Corporation) specifying (A) the number and class of withdrawn Company Exchangeable Units and, as to Company Class B Units, the corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock and (B) if any, the number and class of Company Exchangeable Units and, as to Company Class B Units, the corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock, as to which the Exchange Notice remains in effect, and (y) a Company Unitholder may specify, in an applicable Exchange Notice, that the Exchange is to be contingent (including as to timing) upon the occurrence of any transaction or event, including the consummation of a purchase by another Person (whether in a tender or exchange offer, an underwritten offering, Change of Control transaction or otherwise) of shares of Class A Common Stock or any merger, consolidation or other business combination. The timely delivery of a Retraction Notice indicating an entire withdrawal of the Exchange Notice pursuant to clause (x) above and, in respect of clause (y) above, the termination of the transaction or event prior to the consummation thereof, shall, in either case, terminate all of the exchanging Company Unitholder’s, Company’s and Corporation’s rights and obligations under this Section 2.1(a) arising from that particular Exchange Notice, and all actions taken to effect the Exchange contemplated by that Exchange Notice shall be deemed rescinded.

(b)      Exchange Consideration . On the Exchange Date, provided the Company Unitholder has satisfied its obligations under Section 2.1(a)(ii) , the Company or the Corporation, as applicable, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to such Company Unitholder (or its designee), at the address set forth on the applicable Exchange Notice, either certificates representing the number of shares of Class A Common Stock deliverable upon the applicable Exchange, registered in the name of the relevant exchanging Company Unitholder (or its designee) or, if the Corporation has so elected, the Cash Settlement, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall have the right but not the obligation (in lieu of the Company) to have the Corporation acquire the Company Exchangeable Units and, as to Company Class B Units, Class B Common Stock any Company Unitholder is requesting to be exchanged pursuant to Section 2.1(a) directly from such Company Unitholder in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock or, at the option of the Corporation, the Cash Settlement. If an exchanging Company Unitholder receives the shares of Class A Common Stock or the Cash Settlement that such Company Unitholder is entitled to receive from the Corporation pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) , the Company Unitholder shall have no further right to receive shares of Class A Common Stock from the Company in connection with that Exchange. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.1(b) to the contrary, to the extent the Class A Common Stock is settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, the Company or the Corporation will, upon the written instruction of an exchanging Company Unitholder, deliver the shares of Class A Common Stock deliverable to such exchanging Company Unitholder through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company to the account of the participant of The Depository Trust Company designated by such exchanging Company Unitholder in the Exchange Notice. Upon a Company Unitholder exercising its right to Exchange, the Company or the Corporation, as applicable, shall take such actions as (A) may be required to ensure that such Company Unitholder receives the shares of Class A Common Stock or the Cash Settlement that such exchanging Company Unitholder is entitled to receive in connection with such Exchange pursuant to this Section 2.1 , and (B) may be reasonably within its control that would cause such Exchange to be treated for purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement as an “Exchange” (as such term is defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement).

(c)      Cancellation of Class B Common Stock . For clarity, any Exchange of Company Class B Units shall be accompanied by and conditioned on the surrender to the Company of an equal number of shares of Class B Common Stock. Any shares of Class B Common Stock surrendered in an Exchange shall automatically be deemed cancelled without any action on the part of any Person, including the Corporation. Any such cancelled shares of Class B Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares shall automatically cease and terminate, other than the right to receive from the Corporation a cash payment equal to the aggregate par value of such shares.

(d)      Expenses . Subject to any other arrangement or agreement among the Company and an applicable Company Unitholder, the Corporation, the Company, and each exchanging Company Unitholder shall bear their own expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated, except that the Corporation shall bear any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; provided , however , that if any shares of Class A Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the Company

Unitholder that requested the Exchange (or The Depository Trust Company or its nominee for the account of a participant of The Depository Trust Company that will hold the shares for the account of such Company Unitholder) or the Cash Settlement is to be paid to a Person other than the Company Unitholder that requested the Exchange, then such Company Unitholder or the Person in whose name such shares are to be delivered or to whom the Cash Settlement is to be paid shall pay to the Corporation the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e)      Publicly Traded Partnership . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Board or the Managing Member of the Company, as applicable, obtains a written opinion from an Advisory Firm that interests in the Company do not meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h), the Corporation or the Company, as applicable, will impose such restrictions on Exchanges as the Corporation or the Company, as applicable, may reasonably determine to be necessary or advisable so that the Company is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Exchange shall be permitted (and, if attempted, shall be void ab initio ) if the Corporation or the Company obtains a written opinion from an Advisory Firm that such an Exchange would pose a material risk that the Company would be a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code.

Section 2.2    Adjustment. To the extent not reflected in an adjustment to the Exchange Rate, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock is converted or changed or exchanged into or for another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an exchanging Company Unitholder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such exchanging Company Unitholder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock is converted or changed or exchanged into or for another security, securities or other property, this Section 2.2 shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such security or other property.

Section 2.3    Class A Common Stock to be Issued.

(a)    The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be deliverable upon all such Exchanges; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its obligations in respect of any such Exchange by delivery of

unencumbered purchased shares of Class A Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof).

(b)    The Corporation has taken and will take all such steps as may be required to cause to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3(d) or (e), as applicable, under the Exchange Act, and be exempt for purposes of Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, any acquisitions or dispositions of equity securities of the Corporation (including derivative securities with respect thereto) and any securities that may be deemed to be equity securities or derivative securities of the Corporation for such purposes that result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, by each director or officer of the Corporation (including directors-by-deputization) who may reasonably be expected to be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Corporation upon the registration of any class of equity security of the Corporation pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

(c)    If any Takeover Law or other similar law or regulation becomes or is deemed to become applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to render such law or regulation inapplicable to all of the foregoing.

(d)    The Corporation covenants that all shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to any preemptive right of stockholders of the Corporation or to any right of first refusal or other right in favor of any Person.

Section 2.4    Withholding.

(a)    If the Corporation or the Company shall be required to withhold any amounts by reason of any federal, state, local or foreign tax laws or regulations in respect of any Exchange, the Corporation or the Company, as the case may be, shall be entitled to take such action as it deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance with such withholding requirements, including, at its option, withholding shares of Class A Common Stock with a fair market value equal to the minimum amount of any taxes that the Corporation or the Company, as the case may be, may be required to withhold with respect to such Exchange. To the extent that amounts are (or property is) so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such withheld amounts (or property) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid (or delivered) to the applicable Company Unitholder.

(b)    If the Corporation or the Company determines that any amounts by reason of any federal, state, local or foreign tax laws or regulations are required to be withheld in respect of any Exchange, the Corporation or the Company, as the case may be, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the exchanging Company Unitholder and shall consider in good faith any theories, positions or alternative arrangements that such Company Unitholder raises (reasonably in advance of the date on which the Corporation or the Company believes withholding is required) as to why withholding is not required or that may avoid the need for such withholding, provided that none of the Corporation or the Company is required to incur additional costs as a result of such obligation and this Section 2.4(b) shall not in any manner limit the authority of the

Corporation or the Company to withhold taxes with respect to an exchanging Company Unitholder pursuant to Section 2.4(a).

Section 2.5    Tax Treatment. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that an Exchange with the Company or the Corporation shall be treated as a direct exchange between the Corporation and the Company Unitholder for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes. The parties hereto intend to treat any Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable exchange for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the exchanging Company Unitholder and the Corporation. This Agreement shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of the Company as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

Section 2.6    Contribution of the Corporation.

The timely delivery of a Retraction Notice shall terminate all of the Company’s and the Corporation’s rights and obligations under this Section 2.6 arising from the Exchange Notice.

Section 2.7    Distributions. No Exchange will impair the right of an exchanging Company Unitholder to receive any distribution for periods ending on or prior to the Exchange Date for such Exchange (but for which payment had not yet been made with respect to the Company Exchangeable Units in question at the time the Exchange is consummated), in which case such exchanging Company Unitholder will retain, with respect to the Company Exchangeable Units so Exchanged, only the right to be paid such earned but unpaid distribution at the time it is paid to other Company Unitholders; provided that, for purposes of this Section 2.7, the exchanging Company Unitholder’s right to receive its pro rata portion of any distribution by the Company in respect of such periods shall not be deemed impaired to the extent that the Company has not paid the Corporation its pro rata portion of such distribution prior to the consummation of the applicable Exchange.

Section 2.8    Conclusive Nature of Determinations. All determinations, interpretations, calculations, adjustments and other actions of the Company, the Corporation, the Board (or a committee to which the Board has delegated such authority), the Managing Member or a designee of any of the foregoing that are within such Person’s authority hereunder shall be binding and conclusive on a Company Unitholder absent manifest error.

with respect to the manner in which such determination, interpretation, calculation, adjustment or other action is to be made or taken, and shall be entitled to interpret the provisions of this Agreement, in such a manner as it determines to be fair and equitable, and such resolution or interpretation shall be binding and conclusive on a Company Unitholder absent manifest error.

All headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to define or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement. All exhibits and schedules referred to herein, and as the same may be amended from time to time, are by this reference made a part hereof as though fully set forth herein.

Section 4.7    Binding Provisions. This Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective personal and legal representatives, heirs, executors, successors and Permitted Transferees.

Every covenant, term and provision of this Agreement shall be construed simply according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any party hereto.

Section 4.9    Severability. It is expressly understood and agreed that if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any party or circumstance shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any party or circumstance other than those to which it is so determined to be invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law so long as the economic or legal substance of the matters contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares or finds that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or portion of the term or provision, or to delete specific words or phrases, and to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If such court of competent jurisdiction does not so replace an invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect

the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the matters contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

Section 4.11      No Third-Party Beneficiaries . Each member of HL Management Investors, LLC and HLA Investments, LLC on the date hereof and each of their respective Permitted Transferees is specifically intended to be a third party beneficiary of the rights to Exchange Company Exchangeable Units hereunder, subject, in each case, to their execution and delivery to the Company and the Corporation of an executed joinder to this Agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Company and the Corporation. Otherwise, this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, provide or create any rights or benefits in any Person other than the parties hereto.

Section 4.12    Mutual Drafting. The parties hereto are sophisticated and have been advised by attorneys throughout the transactions contemplated hereby who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the parties do not intend that the presumptions of laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should be applied to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument executed in connection herewith, and therefore waive their effects.

Section 4.13    Rights and Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies provided by this Agreement are cumulative and the use of any one right or remedy by any party shall not preclude or waive the right to use any or all other remedies. Such rights and remedies are given in addition to any other rights the parties may have by law, statute, ordinance or otherwise. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

The provisions of this Agreement may be amended only by the affirmative vote or written or electronic consent of each of (i) the Corporation, (ii) the Company, (iii) Company Unitholders holding a majority of the then outstanding Company Class B Units and (iv) as long as HLA Investments, LLC holds a number of Company Units that is equal to or greater than 10% of the Post-IPO Company Units, the consent of HLA Investments, LLC, as applicable; provided that no amendment may disproportionately and adversely affect the rights of a Company Unitholder (compared to Company Unitholders of Company Units of the same class) without the consent of such Company Unitholder; provided further that no amendment may disproportionately and adversely affect the rights of the Company Unitholders holding Company Class C Units (compared to Company Unitholders of Company Units generally) without the affirmative vote or written or electronic consent of Company Unitholders holding a majority of the then outstanding Company Class C Units.

Section 4.15    Specific Performance. The parties recognize that irreparable injury will result from a breach of any provision of this Agreement and that money damages would be

inadequate to fully remedy the injury. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, any party that may be injured (in addition to any other remedies that may be available to that party) shall be entitled (without the need to post any bond, surety, or other security) to one or more preliminary or permanent orders (a) restraining and enjoining any act that would constitute a breach or (b) compelling the performance of any obligation that, if not performed, would constitute a breach.

Section 4.16    Independent Nature of Company Unitholders’ Rights and Obligations. The obligations of each Company Unitholder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Company Unitholder, and no Company Unitholder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of, or failure to perform, the obligations of any other Company Unitholder hereunder. The decision of each Company Unitholder to enter into this Agreement has been made by such Company Unitholder independently of any other Company Unitholder. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Company Unitholder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Company Unitholders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Company Unitholders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby and the Corporation acknowledges that the Company Unitholders are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Corporation will not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.
