GOVERNANCE MATTERS

2.1    Board Designees.

(a)    The Company and each Principal Stockholder will use reasonable best efforts, including taking all Necessary Action, to cause the Board to cause the following nominees to be elected to serve as directors on the Board:

(i)    if Riverstone and their Affiliates collectively Beneficially Own at least 30% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, up to four nominees designated by Riverstone;

(ii)    if Riverstone and their Affiliates collectively Beneficially Own less than 30% but at least 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, up to two nominees designated by Riverstone; and

(iii)    if Riverstone and their Affiliates collectively Beneficially Own less than 20% but at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, up to one nominee designated by Riverstone.

For the avoidance of doubt, the rights granted to Riverstone to designate members of the Board are additive to, and not intended to limit in any way, the rights that Riverstone or any of their respective Affiliates may have to nominate, elect or remove directors under the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or the Delaware General Corporation Law.

The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including with respect to any applicable fiduciary duties under Delaware law), that taking all necessary corporate action to effectuate the above will include (A) including the persons designated pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election at any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors, (B) nominating and recommending each such individual to be elected as a director as provided herein, (C) soliciting proxies or consents in favor thereof, and (D) without limiting the foregoing, otherwise using its reasonable best efforts to cause such nominees to be elected to the Board, including providing at least as high a level of support for the election of such nominees as it provides to any other individual standing for election as a director. The Company is entitled to identify such individual as a Riverstone Director pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)    At any time the members of the Board are allocated among separate classes of directors, (i) the directors designated by Riverstone pursuant to this Section 2.1 (the

 

- 4 -


Riverstone Directors”) will be in different classes of directors to the extent practicable and (ii) Riverstone will be permitted to designate the class or classes to which each Riverstone Director will be allocated.

(c)    So long as the Principal Stockholders and their respective Affiliates collectively Beneficially Own 20% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, Riverstone will have the right to cause the Board to include at least one Riverstone Director on each committee of the Board as designated by Riverstone (subject to any independence requirement imposed by applicable law or by the applicable rules of any national securities exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed or traded).

(d)    So long Riverstone is entitled to designate one or more nominees pursuant to Section 2.1(a), Riverstone will have the right to remove any Riverstone Director (with or without cause) appointed by Riverstone, from time to time and at any time, from the Board, exercisable upon written notice to the Company, and the Company and will take all Necessary Action to cause such removal.

(e)    In the event that a vacancy is created on the Board at any time by the death, disability, resignation or removal (whether by Riverstone or otherwise in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as either may be amended or restated from time to time) of a Riverstone Director, Riverstone will be entitled to designate an individual to fill the vacancy so long as the total number of persons that will serve on the Board as designees of Riverstone immediately following the filling of such vacancy will not exceed the total number of persons Riverstone is entitled to designate pursuant to Section 2.1(a) on the date of such replacement designation. The Company and the Principal Stockholders will take all Necessary Action to cause such replacement designee to become a member of the Board.

2.2    Restrictions on Other Agreements. No Principal Stockholder will, directly or indirectly, grant any proxy or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust, agreement or arrangement of any kind with respect to its shares of Common Stock or Class B Common Stock if and to the extent the terms thereof conflict with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such proxy, voting trust, agreement or agreements are with other Principal Stockholders, holders of shares of Common Stock or Class B Common Stock that are not parties to this Agreement or others).

2.3    Consent Rights. So long as Riverstone and their Affiliates collectively Beneficially Own at least 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the following direct or indirect actions (whether by amendment, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) will require the prior consent of Riverstone, which consent may be withheld for any reason or no reason, in addition to the Board’s approval (or, as applicable, the approval of the requisite governing body of any subsidiary of the Company or any requisite statutory vote):

(a)    any material change, through any acquisition, disposition of assets or otherwise, in the nature of the business or operations of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement;

 

- 5 -


(b)    hiring or terminating the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of the Company and their successors;

(c)    any transaction that, if consummated, would constitute a PubCo Change of Control or entering into any definitive agreement or series of related agreements that govern any transaction or series of related transactions that, if consummated, would result in a PubCo Change of Control;

(d)    entering into any agreement providing for the acquisition or divestiture of assets or Persons, in each such case, involving consideration payable or receivable by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $100 million in the aggregate in any single transaction or series of related transactions during any 12-month period;

(e)    any incurrence by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of indebtedness for borrowed money (including through capital leases, the issuance of debt securities or the guarantee of indebtedness of another Person) in excess of $100 million in the aggregate in any single transaction or series of related transactions during any 12-month period;

(f)    any issuance or series of related issuances of equity securities by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for an aggregate consideration in excess of $100 million;

(g)    any payment or declaration of any dividend or other distribution of any shares of Common Stock or entering into any recapitalization transaction the primary purpose of which is to pay a dividend;

(h)    any increase or decrease in the size of the Board, committees of the Board, and board and committees of subsidiaries of the Company;

(i)    settling any litigation to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party involving the payment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of an aggregate amount equal to or greater than $25 million;

(j)    entering into any joint venture or similar business alliance involving investment, contribution or disposition by the Company or its subsidiaries of assets (including stock of subsidiaries) having an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of $100 million, other than transactions solely between and among the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries; and

(k)    any amendment, modification or waiver of the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any other governing document of the Company following the date of this Agreement that (i) causes the number of Board seats to be less than or greater than eight or (ii) materially and adversely affects any Principal Stockholder.
