At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action on the part of the HTP Parties, the Company or any Holder, each Participating Unit (including any Common Units issuable upon conversion of each Company Series B Preferred Unit that is a Participating Unit) that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Participating Units (including any Common Units issuable upon conversion of Company Series B Preferred Units that are Participating Units) held by the Blockers (or HTP after the HTP Mergers)) shall be cancelled and shall automatically be converted into and become the right to receive the Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, all such Participating Units shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each Holder of Participating Units shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration set forth in this Section 4.03(c). In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the matters set forth in this Section 4.03(c) and the Company LLCA in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, this Section 4.03(c) shall control in all respects.

(a) At the Effective Time, all of the Company Options, whether vested or unvested, that are outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of any Company optionholder or beneficiary thereof, will be assumed by Surviving Pubco, and each such Company Option shall be converted into a stock option (each, a “Converted Option”) to purchase Surviving Pubco Class A Shares. Each such Converted Option as so assumed and converted shall continue to have and be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company Option immediately before the Effective Time (including vesting (if applicable), expiration date and exercise provisions), except that, as of the Effective Time, each such Converted Option as so assumed and converted shall be exercisable for that number of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares determined by multiplying the number of Company Units subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Option Exchange Ratio, which product shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares, at a per share exercise price determined by dividing the per share exercise price of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Option Exchange Ratio, which quotient shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent; provided that, the exercise price and the number of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares purchasable under each Converted Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the holder of the Company Warrant elects to cause the Company Warrant to be settled by a sale of the equity of a blocker entity of such holder in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Company Warrant Agreement, then the Company and the HTP Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such settlement in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Company Warrant Agreement, and as a condition to such settlement, (i) such blocker entity shall become party hereto and bound by this Agreement as if originally a party hereto as a Blocker Party, including by making representations and warranties in the same manner as the Blocker Parties in Article 5 and becoming subject to the covenants and agreements of the Blocker Parties set forth herein, and the Company, the HTP Parties and Pacer Holdings shall mutually agree to make appropriate adjustments to the terms hereof to permit such blocker entity to become a Blocker Party for all purposes of this Agreement and for the outstanding Equity Securities of such blocker entity to be treated as Blocker Equity Interests for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, (x) upon settlement of the Company Warrant by a sale of the equity of a blocker entity of such holder in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Company Warrant Agreement, such blocker entity shall be deemed to have held Company Common Units, (y) if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, none of the adjustments to the terms of the Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.05(c) shall cause the consideration to be received by any holder of Company Series B Preferred Units or the Blocker Owners as of the date hereof to be less than the consideration to be received by such persons if such changes are not made and (z) none of Pacer Holdings, Pacer Corp. Blocker or Pacer L.P. Blocker is making (or will be deemed to have made) any representation or warranty with respect to such blocker entity, nor shall Pacer Holdings, Pacer Corp. Blocker or Pacer L.P. Blocker be responsible for any actions taken (or omitted to be taken) by such blocker entity, and (ii) the holder or holders of the outstanding Equity Securities of such blocker entity shall become a party to, and subject to the terms and restrictions of, the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement for all purposes thereof, including by being subject to the terms of Section 3.6 of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement; provided that, the Parties acknowledge and agree that any Registrable Securities (as defined in the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement) held by the holder or holders of the outstanding Equity Securities of such blocker entity were not issued to such holders as holders of Company Series B Preferred Units.

Section 4.06 Equity Interests Held in Treasury or Owned. (a) At the Blocker Mergers Effective Time, any equity interest of a Blocker held in the treasury of such Blocker or owned by such Blocker immediately prior to the Blocker Mergers Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto and (b) at the Effective Time, any Company Units held in the treasury of the Company or owned by any Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto (any such limited liability company interests or other equity interests or such Company Units contemplated by this Section 4.06, “Cancelled Equity Interests”).

Section 4.07 Convertible Notes. At the Effective Time, the Convertible Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest shall be converted into the right to receive a number of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares equal to (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount thereof as of such time, including any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, divided by (y) $10.00 divided by (z) 0.85 (the “Convertible Notes Conversion”).

Section 4.08 Allocation Statement. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to HTP an allocation statement (the “Allocation Statement”) setting forth (after giving effect to the Pre-Closing Blocker Reorganization): (a) (i) each Holder’s proportionate interest in the Company as of the Effective Time, (ii) the Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration or Per Company Series B Preferred Unit Merger Consideration, as applicable, payable as of the Effective Time to each Holder, and (iii) if such Holder is an Earnout Participant, such Holder’s Earnout Pro Rata Portion (as described in Schedule A) as of the Effective Time; (b) (i) each Blocker Owner’s proportionate interest in the applicable Blocker as of the Effective Time, (ii) the Per Blocker Equity Interest Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time with respect to each Blocker, and (iii) if such Blocker Owner is an Earnout Participant, such Blocker Owner’s Earnout Pro Rata Portion (as described in Schedule A) as of the Effective Time; and (c) the Excess Counted Options Schedule, if any. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the HTP Parties and, following the Closing, Surviving Pubco, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries, shall be entitled to rely on, without any obligation to investigate or verify the accuracy or correctness thereof, the Allocation Statement (including all determinations therein), and no Holder or Blocker Owner shall be entitled to any amount in excess of the amounts to be paid to such Holder or Blocker Owner in accordance with this Agreement and the Allocation Statement.

Section 4.09 Payment; Letter of Transmittal.

(a) Immediately prior to or at the Effective Time, HTP shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) as mutually and reasonably agreed by HTP and the Company (i) evidence of Surviving Company Membership Units (and/or certificates representing such Surviving Company Membership Units, at HTP’s election) representing the number of Surviving Company Membership Units sufficient to deliver the Participating Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, the Aggregate Series B Liquidation Preference, in each case, payable as of the Effective Time, (ii) evidence of shares of Surviving Pubco Class B Shares (and/or certificates representing such shares of Surviving Pubco Class B Shares, at HTP’s election) representing the number of shares of Surviving Pubco Class B Shares sufficient to deliver the Participating Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, the Aggregate Series B Liquidation Preference, in each case, payable as of the Effective Time and (iii) evidence of shares of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares (and/or certificates representing such shares of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares, at HTP’s election) representing the number of shares of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares sufficient to deliver the total Per Blocker Equity Interest Merger Consideration payable hereunder as of the Effective Time (collectively, the “Funding Amount”).

(b) Within ten (10) Business Days following the initial filing of the Registration Statement, the Company or the Exchange Agent shall mail or otherwise deliver to each Holder a Letter of Transmittal, which shall specify, among other things, that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Units shall pass to the Exchange Agent, upon delivery of the Letter of Transmittal, a counterpart signature to the Surviving Company A&R LLCA (“LLCA Counterpart”), a counterpart signature to the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA Counterpart”) and a joinder to the Exchange Agreement (“Exchange Agreement Joinder” and together with the TRA Counterpart, the LLCA Counterpart and the Letter of Transmittal, the “Exchange Documents”) subject to and upon the Effective Time. No Holder shall be entitled to receive any Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration or, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, any Per Company Series B Preferred Unit Merger Consideration, in each case, unless such Holder has delivered to the Company (or the Exchange Agent, on behalf of the Company) a Letter of Transmittal, TRA Counterpart and with respect to the Holders other than the Blocker Owners, an LLCA Counterpart and Exchange Agreement Joinder. Upon delivery to the Exchange Agent after the Effective Time of each of the Exchange Documents required to be delivered by such Holder, such Holder shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent the Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, any Per Company Series B Preferred Unit Merger Consideration, in each case, to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Article 4. With respect to any Holder of Company Units that delivers each of the Exchange Documents required to be delivered by such Holder to the Company (or the Exchange Agent, on behalf of the Company) at or prior to the Effective Time, HTP shall instruct the Exchange Agent to pay such Holder the portion of the Participating Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, the Aggregate Series B Liquidation Preference, in each case, payable as of the Effective Time to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Article 4 at or promptly after the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Holder of Company Units that has not delivered to the Company (or the Exchange Agent, on behalf of the Company) each of the Exchange Documents required to be delivered by such Holder at or prior to the Effective Time, HTP shall instruct the Exchange Agent to pay such Holder the Per Company Participating Unit Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, the Per Company Series B Preferred Unit Merger Consideration, in each case, to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Article 4 at or promptly after the time at which such Holder delivered such instruments to the Company (or the Exchange Agent, on behalf of the Company). From and after the Effective Time, all previous Holders of Company Units shall cease to have any rights as Holders other than the right to receive the portion of the Participating Merger Consideration and, if the Company Series B Preferred Units are not Participating Units, the Aggregate Series B Liquidation Preference, in each case, payable as of the Effective Time to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 4.09(b) without interest. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Units on the transfer books of the Surviving Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the Ancillary Agreements, failure by a Holder to deliver duly executed and completed copies of each of the Exchange Documents required to be delivered by such Holder, in each case, as required by this Section 4.09(b), shall not alter, limit or delay the Closing in any manner.

(c) Payment to the Blocker Owners. At the Effective Time, HTP shall cause the Exchange Agent to provide to each Blocker Owner immediately prior to the Blocker Mergers Effective Time, evidence of book-entry shares representing the number of whole shares of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares to which such Blocker Owner is entitled to as a result of the applicable Blocker Merger. It is expressly understood and agreed that upon the delivery of the shares of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares in accordance with the terms hereof, HTP and its Affiliates shall have no liability to the Holder Representative, any Blocker Owner, Blocker or any other Person for any amounts in respect of the same.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a Surviving Company Membership Units or share of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares or Surviving Pubco Class B Share will be issued by virtue of this Agreement or the Transactions, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a Surviving Pubco Class A Share, Surviving Company Membership Unit or Surviving Pubco Class B Share (after aggregating all Surviving Pubco Class A Shares or Surviving Company Membership Units and Surviving Pubco Class B Shares to which such Person otherwise would be entitled) shall instead have the number of Surviving Pubco Class A Shares or Surviving Company Membership Units and shares of Surviving Pubco Class B Shares issued to such Person rounded up or down to the nearest whole Surviving Pubco Class A Share or Surviving Company Membership Unit and Surviving Pubco Class B Shares (with 0.5 of a unit and share or greater rounded up), as applicable.

At the Closing, Surviving Pubco shall pay or cause to be paid to the Holder Representative (to an account designated in writing by the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), the Holder Representative Amount for the payment of expenses incurred by it in performing its duties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Holder Representative Amount shall be maintained by the Holder Representative in a segregated account. Holders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Holder Representative Amount and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Holder Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Holder Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. For tax purposes, the Holder Representative Amount will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Holders at the time of Closing. Upon the determination of the Holder Representative that retaining any portion of the Holder Representative Amount is no longer necessary, the Holder Representative shall deliver any then-remaining portion of the Holder Representative Amount to the Exchange Agent, which shall distribute such payment to the Holders in accordance with the Exchange Agent Agreement, which instructions shall be in accordance with the Allocation Statement. The Holder Representative Amount shall not be available to Surviving Pubco or any of its Subsidiaries to satisfy any claims hereunder.

The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Funding Amount as directed by, prior to the Closing, HTP and, after, the Closing, Surviving Pubco; provided, however, that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to the Holders pursuant to this Article 4. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Surviving Pubco, upon demand. Promptly following the earlier of (a) the date on which the entire Funding Amount has been disbursed and (b) the date which is twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, Surviving Pubco shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Surviving Pubco any remaining portion of the Funding Amount, Letters of Transmittal, and other documents in its possession relating to the Transactions, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Holder may look only to Surviving Pubco (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for satisfaction of its claim for the Participating Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time that such Holder may have the right to receive pursuant to this Article 4 without any interest thereon.

Section 4.13 No Liability; Withholding.

(a) None of HTP, Surviving Pubco, the Surviving Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person for any portion of the Participating Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the Participating Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time that remains undistributed to the Holders as of immediately prior to the date on which the Participating Merger Consideration payable as of the Effective Time would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(b) Each of HTP, Surviving Pubco, the Surviving Company and the Exchange Agent (without duplication) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Law; provided, however, that other than with respect to withholding (i) with respect to any payments in the nature of compensation, (ii) attributable to the failure of any Person to provide any Tax documents required in connection with any Letter of Transmittal pursuant to Section 4.09(b) or the documentation in Section 4.10(b)(ii), or (iii) required under Section 1446(f) of the Code as a result of the payee’s failure or inability to provide an IRS Form W-9 in connection with its Letter of Transmittal or otherwise establish an exemption, prior to Closing, the applicable payor will prior to any deduction or withholding use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) notify the Surviving Company of any anticipated withholding and (B) reasonably cooperate with the Surviving Company to minimize the amount of any such applicable withholding. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that no withholding is required under applicable U.S. federal income Tax Law as in effect as of the Effective Time (other than with respect to compensatory payments or any deduction or withholding required by reason of the failure by, or ineligibility of, any Holder or Blocker Owner to timely provide a duly executed and properly completed IRS Form W-9 or, with respect to the Blocker Owners, the documentation required by Section 4.10(b)(ii)) with respect to any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) If a Holder is unable to provide a duly executed and properly completed IRS Form W-9, then, to the extent that the Company and HTP determine in good faith that withholding is required under Section 1446 of the Code, (i) such Holder shall provide a certificate substantially in the form described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1446(f)-2(c)(2)(ii)(B) or (ii) the Company shall deliver a certificate substantially in the form described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1446(f)-2(c)(2)(ii)(C), in each case that is reasonably acceptable to HTP, setting forth the liabilities of the Company allocated to the Company Units sold or deemed to be sold pursuant to this Agreement under Section 752 of the Code.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Blocker Party and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of such Blocker Party, enforceable against such Blocker Party in accordance with their terms, except as such may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (the “Enforceability Exceptions”).

Section 5.02 Holding Company; Ownership. (a) Such Blocker Party is a holding company and was formed for the sole purpose of investing in equity interests of the Company and has never owned, and does not own, any assets except for equity interests of the Company, cash and other assets typical of a holding company.

No event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of HTP under any material term or condition of any PIPE Subscription Agreement and, as of the date hereof, HTP has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis any term or condition of closing to be satisfied by it contained in any PIPE Subscription Agreement. The PIPE Subscription Agreements contain all of the conditions precedent (other than the conditions contained in the other agreements related to the transactions contemplated herein) to the obligations of the PIPE Investors to contribute to HTP the applicable portion of the PIPE Financing Amount set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreements on the terms therein.

(b) No fees, consideration or other discounts are payable or have been agreed by HTP or any of its Subsidiaries (including, from and after the Closing, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries) to any PIPE Investor in respect of its portion of the PIPE Financing Amount, except as set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreements.

Section 7.21 Independent Investigation. HTP and its Affiliates and their respective representatives have conducted their own independent investigation, review and analysis of the business, results of operations, prospects, condition (financial or otherwise) or assets of the Company, the Blocker Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and HTP acknowledges that it and they have been provided adequate access to the personnel, properties, assets, premises, books and records, and other documents and data of the Company, the Blocker Parties and their respective Subsidiaries for such purpose. HTP acknowledges and agrees that: (a) in making its decision to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, it has relied solely upon its own investigation and the Blocker Representations and the Company Representations; and (b) none of the Company, the Blocker Parties, or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives have made any express or implied representation or warranty as to the Company, the Blocker Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or this Agreement, except the Blocker Representations and the Company Representations.

Section 7.22 No Additional Representations and Warranties; No Outside Reliance. Except for the HTP Representations, none of the HTP Parties nor any other Person acting on their respective behalf has made, or is making, any representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, relating to or with respect to this Agreement, the Transactions or the HTP Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates. None of the HTP Parties has made any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the HTP Parties or otherwise, other than the HTP Representations. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the HTP Parties acknowledges and agrees that none of the Blocker Parties, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates nor any other Person is making any representations or warranties whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, at law or in equity, other than the Blocker Representations and the Company Representations. Each of the HTP Parties hereby expressly disclaims any representations or warranties other the HTP Representations. Each of the HTP Parties acknowledges and agrees that, except for the Blocker Representations and the Company Representations, none of the Company, the Blocker Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates nor any other Person has made or is making any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information, data, or statement regarding the Company, the Blocker Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates or the Transactions, including in respect of the Company, the Blocker Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, the business, the operations, prospects, or condition (financial or otherwise), or the accuracy or completeness of any document, projection, material, statement, or other information, not expressly set forth in the Blocker Representations or the Company Representations, as applicable. The HTP Parties are not relying on any representations or warranties other than those representations or warranties set forth in the Blocker Representations and the Company Representations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.22 shall limit the remedies of the Company or any Blocker Party in the event of Fraud.

(d) No Party shall take any action that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect or materially delay the approval of any Governmental Authority, or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under Antitrust Laws, including by agreeing to merge with or acquire any other person or acquire a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in any other person. The Parties further covenant and agree, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other Governmental Order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the Transactions, to use reasonable best efforts to prevent or lift the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof, as the case may be.

Section 10.02 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Each of the HTP Parties agree that all rights held by each present and former director and officer of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at, or after the Effective Time, provided in the respective certificate of formation, operating agreement or other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary in effect on the date of this Agreement shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, Surviving Pubco shall cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in its certificate of formation, operating agreement and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exculpation (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the certificate of formation, operating agreement and other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement and (ii) not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.

(b) The Company shall cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six (6) year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time. If any claim is asserted or made within such six (6) year period, the provisions of this Section 10.02 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 10.02 shall survive the consummation of the Merger indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Surviving Pubco and the Surviving Company. In the event that Surviving Pubco or the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Surviving Pubco or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 10.02.

(d) Surviving Pubco shall maintain customary director and officer insurance on behalf of any Person who is or was a director or officer of Surviving Pubco (at any time, including prior to the date hereof) against any liability asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in any such capacity, or arising out of such Person’s status as such, whether or not Surviving Pubco would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of the Surviving Pubco Certificate of Incorporation, the Surviving Pubco Bylaws or Section 145 of the DGCL or any other provision of Law.

Section 10.03 Tax Matters.

(a) The Parties intend that for U.S. federal (and, as applicable, state and local) income Tax purposes: (i) the Domestication be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code and that this Agreement be adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder with respect thereto, (ii) the First Blocker Merger and the First HTP Merger will be treated as a single integrated transaction that is treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and that this Agreement be adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder with respect thereto, (iii) the Second Blocker Merger and the Second HTP Merger will be treated as a single integrated transaction that is treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and that this Agreement be adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder with respect thereto, (iv) the Surviving Company is a continuation of the Company and (v) the receipt by Surviving Pubco of the Issued Surviving Company Units in the Company Merger be treated as in exchange for Surviving Pubco’s contribution of the Primary Capital to the Surviving Company in a contribution governed by Section 721 of the Code (clauses (i) through (v), the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The Parties agree to use the interim closing method under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder to allocate income, gain, loss, deduction or any other items of the Company between Surviving Pubco and the Holders for the taxable period that includes the Closing Date.

(b) Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to take an action that could reasonably be expected to cause the Transactions to fail to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. HTP and the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Cooley LLP and/or Davis Polk, as relevant, customary Tax representation letters reasonably satisfactory to such counsel, dated and executed as of the date the Registration Statement/Proxy Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC and such other date(s) as determined reasonably necessary by such counsel in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement/Proxy Statement.

(c) The Parties agree and shall cause the Company, the Surviving Company and each Subsidiary of the Company that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes to have in effect for the tax period that includes the Closing Date a valid election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code to the extent eligible.

(d) The Parties (i) agree that the value allocated to Surviving Pubco Class B Shares shall be the par value of such Surviving Pubco Class B Shares and (ii) shall report consistently with such determination for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes.

(e) Except as required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code, the Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective applicable Affiliates to: (i) prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment; (ii) take no position in any communication with any Governmental Authority or any other action inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment; (iii) promptly inform each other of any challenge by any Governmental Authority to any portion of the Intended Tax Treatment; (iv) consult with and keep one another informed with respect to the status of, and any discussion, proposal or submission with respect to, any such challenge to any portion of the Intended Tax Treatment; and (v) use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to defend the Intended Tax Treatment in any Tax Proceeding.

(f) Surviving Pubco shall prepare and timely file, or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns for the Blockers, the Surviving Company, the Company and its Subsidiaries required to be filed after the Closing. With respect to any Tax Returns of the Surviving Company, the Company or their Subsidiaries that are of the type used to report the income, loss, gain, deduction and other Tax attributes from the operation of a partnership or other pass-through entity and that are of the type that reflect items of income, loss, gain, deduction or other Tax attributes required to be included on a Tax Return of a Holder, and which Tax Return of the Surviving Company, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relates to a taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date (whether or not such items are actually reflected thereon) (each such Tax Return, a “Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return” and each such item a “Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Item”), (i) such Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with past practice, except as otherwise required by applicable Law, and consistent with Section 5.06 of the Surviving Company A&R LLCA, (ii) Surviving Pubco shall submit such Tax Return to the Holder Representative no later than thirty (30) days prior to filing any such Tax Return for its review, (iii) Surviving Pubco shall make any changes to such Tax Returns reasonably requested by the Holder Representative and to the extent such comments relate to Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Items, (iv) all Transaction Tax Deductions will, in each case, be allocated and attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, to the extent permitted by applicable Law at a “more likely than not” or higher level of comfort and (v) no such Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return shall be filed without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to be granted twenty (20) days after a Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return is provided to the Holder Representative if the Holder Representative does not provide comments by such time). All other Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with the provisions of the Surviving Company A&R LLCA.

(g) After the Closing, without the prior written consent of the Holder Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Surviving Pubco shall not (and shall neither cause nor permit the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to) take any of the following actions: (w) file (except in accordance with Section 10.03(f)), amend, re-file or otherwise modify any Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return, (x) enter into an agreement to extend the statute of limitations with respect to any Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return, (y) except for making the elections contemplated in Section 10.03(c) and Section 10.03(i), make, change, or revoke any Tax election affecting a Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return or Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Item, or (z) initiate any discussion, voluntary disclosure or examination with any Governmental Authority regarding Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Returns or Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Items.

(h) All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne by Surviving Pubco and paid when due. Surviving Pubco shall timely file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Tax Returns and, if required by applicable Law, the Holders will join in the execution of any such Tax Return or documentation.

(i) After the Closing, each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties in writing upon receipt by the applicable Party or its Affiliates of notice of any audit, examination, claim or other similar proceeding (a “Tax Proceeding”) with respect to Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Returns or Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Items. Such notification shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax Proceeding and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the Taxing Authority. The Holder Representative shall have exclusive authority to control any Tax Proceeding pertaining to any Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided that (i) the Surviving Pubco shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Proceeding, and (ii) the Holder Representative shall not settle any such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Surviving Pubco, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Surviving Pubco shall have the exclusive authority to control any other Tax Proceeding relating to the Surviving Company, the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided that (i) Holder Representative shall have the right to participate, at its own cost, in any audits or examinations related to Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Returns or Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Items and (ii) Surviving Pubco shall not settle any such Tax Proceeding that could reasonably be expected to affect a Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Return or Pre-Closing Flow-Through Tax Item without the prior written consent of Holder Representative, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code, as amended by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, apply to the Surviving Company, the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Surviving Company or the Company shall make the election under Section 6226(a) of the Code with respect to the alternative to payment of imputed underpayment by the Company for any taxable year that begins on or before the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed in writing by HTP, and the Parties shall take any other action such as filings, disclosures and notifications necessary to effectuate such election.

(j) Surviving Pubco, the Blocker Owners and the Holders shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing or amendment of Tax Returns, and any audit or other proceeding with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of Surviving Pubco, the Blockers, the Surviving Company, the Company or its Subsidiaries. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(k) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Holder legally eligible to provide an IRS Form W-9 to have delivered to HTP a properly executed IRS Form W-9 prior to the Closing.

(l) Surviving Pubco shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Pre-Closing HTP Holders with information (or to make available such information) that is reasonably required to (i) determine the amount that is required to be taken into income in connection with Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(b)-3 as a result of the Domestication, (ii) make the election contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.367(b)-3(c)(3), and (iii) make a timely and valid election as contemplated by Section 1295 of the Code (and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) with respect to HTP for each year that HTP is considered a passive foreign investment company (including through provision of the Annual Information Statement described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1295-1(g)).

Section 10.04 Proxy Statement; Registration Statement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, HTP and the Company shall prepare, and HTP shall file with the SEC, (i) a preliminary proxy statement in connection with the Transactions to be filed as part of the Registration Statement and sent to the Pre-Closing HTP Holders relating to the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting (such proxy statement, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”) for the purposes of the approval of the Transaction Proposals and (ii) the Registration Statement, in which the Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus. HTP and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate, and cause their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, to reasonably cooperate, with each other and their respective representatives in the preparation of the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement. HTP shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof and to keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Transactions.

(b) HTP shall as promptly as practicable notify the Company of any correspondence with the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, the receipt of any oral or written comments from the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, and any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Proxy Statement or for additional information. HTP shall cooperate and provide the Company with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement (including each amendment or supplement thereto) and all responses to requests for additional information by and replies to comments of the SEC and give due consideration to all comments reasonably proposed by the Company in respect of such documents and responses prior to filing such with or sending such to the SEC, and, to the extent practicable, the Parties will provide each other with copies of all such filings made and correspondence with the SEC. HTP shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary state securities Law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the Merger and the Company shall promptly furnish all information concerning the Company as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Each of HTP and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly furnish to each other party all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, managers, members and stockholders, as applicable, and such other matters, in each case, as may be reasonably necessary in connection with and for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of HTP and the Company or their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, to the SEC or NYSE in connection with the Merger (including any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement) (collectively, the “Offer Documents”). HTP will advise the Company and the Holder Representative, promptly after HTP receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of the HTP Ordinary Shares or Surviving Pubco Class A Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or written threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement or the other Offer Documents or for additional information.

(c) Without limiting the generality of Section 10.04(b), the Company shall furnish to HTP for inclusion in the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement promptly upon receipt by the Company or the Holder Representative thereof, (i) with respect to the Audited Financial Statements required by applicable Law for inclusion in the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement, auditor’s reports and consents to use such financial statements and reports, (ii) unaudited financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 prepared in accordance with GAAP and Regulation S-X and reviewed by the Company’s independent accountant in accordance with PCAOB Auditing Standard 4105 and (iii) if the Registration Statement has not been declared effective prior to November 12, 2021, unaudited financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, prepared in accordance with GAAP and Regulation S-X and reviewed by the Company’s independent auditor (the “2021 Financial Statements”).

(d) Each of HTP and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that none of the information related to it or any of its Affiliates, supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (i) either Proxy Statement will, as of the date it is first mailed to the Pre-Closing HTP Holders, or at the time of the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting, or (ii) the Registration Statement will, at the time the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC, at each time at which it is amended, at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act and at the Effective Time, in either case, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

(e) If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to HTP, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors or officers, as applicable, or the Holders is discovered by any of HTP or the Company and is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to either Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, so that such Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall, subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.04, be promptly filed by HTP with the SEC and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the Pre-Closing HTP Holders.

Section 10.05 HTP Shareholder Approval.

(a) HTP shall take, in accordance with applicable Law, Approved Stock Exchange rules, and the HTP Governing Document, all action necessary to call, hold, and convene an extraordinary general meeting of holders of HTP Ordinary Shares (including any permitted adjournment or postponement, the “HTP Extraordinary General Meeting”) to consider and vote upon the Transaction Proposals and to provide the HTP Shareholders with the opportunity to effect a HTP Share Redemption in connection therewith as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date that the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. HTP shall submit to the HTP Shareholders, and, subject to HTP’s ability to effect a HTP Modification in Recommendation, HTP shall, through the Board of Directors of HTP, recommend to the HTP shareholders (including in the Proxy Statement) and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit approval of, (i) the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, (ii) the Domestication, (iii) in connection with the Domestication, the amendment of the HTP Governing Document and approval of Surviving Pubco Certificate of Incorporation and Surviving Pubco Bylaws, (iv) the issuance of (a) Surviving Pubco Class B Shares in connection with the Company Merger, (b) Surviving Pubco Class A Shares in connection with the Blocker Mergers, (c) Surviving Pubco Class A Shares in connection with the PIPE Financing and upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and (d) the issuance of the Surviving Pubco Class A shares and Surviving Pubco Class B Shares in connection with the Earnout Milestones, (v) the adoption of the Incentive Equity Plan and the Purchase Plan, (vi) the election of the directors constituting Surviving Pubco Board, (vii) the adoption and approval of any other proposals as the SEC (or staff member thereof) may indicate are necessary in its comments to the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement or correspondence related thereto, (viii) the adoption and approval of any other proposals as reasonably agreed by HTP and the Company to be necessary or appropriate in connection with the Merger and (ix) adjournment of the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies because there are not sufficient votes to approve and adopt any of the foregoing (such proposals in clauses (i) through (ix), together, the “Transaction Proposals”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, once the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting to consider and vote upon the Transaction Proposals has been called and noticed, HTP will not postpone or adjourn the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting without the consent of the Company, other than (i) for the absence of a quorum, in which event HTP shall postpone the meeting up to three (3) times for up to ten (10) Business Days each time, (ii) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that HTP has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal advisors, is necessary under applicable Law, and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated to and reviewed by the holders of HTP Ordinary Shares prior to the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting, or (iii) a one-time postponement of up to ten (10) Business Days to solicit additional proxies from holders of HTP Ordinary Shares to the extent HTP has determined that such postponement is reasonably necessary to obtain the approval of the Transaction Proposals.

(c) Neither the HTP Board nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw or modify, or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to the Company the HTP Board Recommendation (any such event, a “HTP Modification in Recommendation”); provided that, if, at any time prior to obtaining the HTP Shareholder Approval, the HTP Board determines in good faith and after consultation with its outside counsel, that the failure to make a HTP Modification in Recommendation would breach its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, HTP or the HTP Board may, prior to obtaining the HTP Shareholder Approval, make a HTP Modification in Recommendation; provided, further, that HTP will not be entitled to make, or agree or resolve to make, a HTP Modification in Recommendation unless (i) HTP delivers to the Company a written notice (a “HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice”) advising the Company that the HTP Board proposes to take such action and containing the material facts underlying the HTP Board’s determination that a HTP Modification in Recommendation is required hereunder (in each case, it being acknowledged that such HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice shall not itself constitute a breach of this Agreement), and (ii) at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5^th) Business Day immediately following the day on which HTP delivered the HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice (such period from the time the HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice is provided until 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5^th) Business Day immediately following the day on which HTP delivered the HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice (the “HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice Period”)), the HTP Board reaffirms in good faith (after consultation with its outside counsel) that the failure to make a HTP Modification in Recommendation would breach its fiduciary duties under applicable Law. If requested by the Company, HTP will and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, during the HTP Modification in Recommendation Notice Period, engage in good faith negotiations with the Company and its Representatives to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so as to obviate the need for an HTP Modification in Recommendation. HTP’s obligations under Section 10.05(a) to call and hold the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting with respect to all Transaction Proposals shall not be affected by any HTP Modification in Recommendation. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of an HTP Modification in Recommendation, HTP shall continue to submit this Agreement to the HTP Shareholders for approval at the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the HTP Extraordinary General Meeting.

Section 10.06 Surviving Pubco Board of Directors. The Parties shall take all necessary action to cause the Board of Directors of Surviving Pubco (the “Surviving Pubco Board”) effective immediately upon the Closing to consist of a total of nine (9) directors or, at the Company’s sole election, a total of ten (10) directors, and such final composition shall be set forth in the Registration Statement, no later than fourteen (14) days prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, to be effective immediately upon the Closing and in accordance with Schedule 10.06.

Prior to the Closing, HTP and the Company shall mutually and reasonably agree upon and prepare the press release announcing the consummation of the Transactions (“Closing Press Release”).

ARTICLE 13
Holder Representative

Section 13.01 Designation and Replacement of Holder Representative. The Parties have agreed that it is desirable to designate a representative to act on behalf of the Holders (the “Holder Representative”). By virtue of approving the Transactions and the adoption of this Agreement, the approval of the terms of the Transactions, and the consummation of the Transactions or participating in the Transactions and receiving the benefits hereof, including the right to receive the consideration payable in connection with the Transactions, each of the Holders shall be deemed to have irrevocably designated and appointed, and hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Shareholder Representative Services LLC as his, her or its representative, agent and attorney-in-fact as of the Closing for all purposes in connection with this Agreement and any related agreements. The Holder Representative may resign at any time, and the Holder Representative may be removed by the vote of Persons which collectively owned more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company Common Units immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Majority Holders”). In the event that a Holder Representative has resigned or been removed, a new Holder Representative shall be appointed by a vote of the Majority Holders, such appointment to become effective upon the written acceptance thereof by the new Holder Representative.

Section 13.02 Authority and Rights of the Holder Representative; Limitations on Liability.

(a) After the Closing, the Holder Representative shall have full power and authority on behalf of the Holders:

(i) to act on behalf of each of them in the absolute discretion of Holder Representative, including with the power to execute and deliver any amendment or waiver respect to (or to terminate) this Agreement;

(ii) to assert, and to agree to resolution of, any claim or dispute under this Agreement, and to take any and all actions (including, for the avoidance of doubt, executing and delivering any notices or documents, incurring any costs and expenses on behalf of the Holders, making any and all determinations, negotiating, compromising, settling, exercising, or refraining from exercising any remedies available to the Holders, and signing any releases, agreements, or other documents, in each case with respect to any such claim or dispute) that may be required or permitted by this Agreement.

(iii) to engage and employ advisors, consultants, agents, representatives, accountants, legal counsel, and other professionals and incur such out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses as the Holder Representative deems necessary or prudent in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement;

(iv) to make and receive notices and other communications pursuant to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement and service of process in any Action arising out of or related to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement;

(v) (A) to cause or authorize amounts to be paid from the Holder Representative Amount to satisfy the obligations of the Holders in accordance with this Agreement and (B) to distribute any of the Holder Representative Amount to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the Holders at such time as the Holder Representative determines, in its sole discretion, such amounts are no longer required to be held in satisfaction of the Holders or Holder Representative’s obligations hereunder; and

104

(vi) in general, to do all things and to perform all acts, including executing and delivering all agreements, certificates, receipts, instructions and other instruments contemplated by or deemed advisable to effectuate the provisions of this Section 13.02.

(b) The HTP Parties and Surviving Pubco will be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Holder by the Holder Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Holder by the Holder Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Any decision or action by the Holder Representative hereunder, including any agreement between the Holder Representative and any HTP Party or Surviving Pubco relating to the defense, payment, or settlement of any claims hereunder, will constitute a decision or action of all Holders and will be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Person. No Holder will have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. The HTP Parties and Surviving Pubco will be entitled to rely upon any document or other paper delivered by the Holder’s Representative as (i) genuine and correct and (ii) having been duly signed or sent by the Holder’s Representative, and the HTP Parties and Surviving Pubco will not be liable to any Holder or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the HTP Parties or Surviving Pubco in such reliance.

(c) The provisions of this Section 13.02 will be binding upon the executors, heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives, successor trustees, and successors of each Holder, and any references in this Agreement to a Holder will mean and include the successors to the Holder’s rights hereunder, whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise.

(d) The Holders shall indemnify the Holder Representative against any reasonable, documented, and out-of-pocket losses, liabilities and expenses (“Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and any related agreements, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Holder Representative, the Holder Representative will reimburse the Holders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. Representative Losses may be recovered by the Holder Representative from (i) the Holder Representative Amount and (ii) any other funds that become payable to the Holders under this Agreement at such time as such amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Holders; provided, that while the Holder Representative may be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Holders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred. In no event will the Holder Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Holders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Holders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Holder Representative hereunder.

105

(e) The Holder Representative will not have, by reason of this Agreement, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Holder. The Holder Representative will not be liable to any Holder for any action taken or omitted by it or any agent employed by it hereunder or under any other document entered into in connection herewith, except that the Holder’s Representative will not be relieved of any liability imposed by Law for willful misconduct. The Holder Representative shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel. The Holder Representative will not be liable to the Holders for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by the Holder Representative in good faith, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Holder to whom payment was due, but not made, will be to recover from other Holders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to have been entitled. Neither the Holder Representative nor any agent employed by it will incur any liability to any Holder by virtue of the failure or refusal of the Holder Representative for any reason to consummate the Transactions or relating to the performance of its other duties hereunder, except for actions or omissions constituting Fraud or bad faith.

(f) All of the rights, indemnities, immunities, and the powers granted to the Holder Representative under this Agreement will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Holder Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 14
Miscellaneous

The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the parties.

Section 14.13 Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Transactions shall be brought exclusively in the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or, in the case of claims to which the federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions in any other court.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO 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.

Section 14.14 Enforcement.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary Damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of Damages or inadequacy of any remedy at Law, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.01, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement.

110

(b) Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 14.14(b) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

Section 14.15 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as Parties and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Company or HTP under this Agreement of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14.15, nothing in this Section 14.15 shall limit (a) any liabilities or obligations against any party to an Ancillary Agreement in respect thereof or (b) any Party’s remedies in the event of Fraud. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 14.15 shall not apply to Article 13, which shall be enforceable by the Holder Representative in its entirety against the Holders.
