The date on which Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Debt and Closing Date Cash are finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.5(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date.” The costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller based upon a fraction, the numerator of which is the portion of the aggregate contested amount not awarded to the applicable Party and the denominator of which is the aggregate contested amount.

(c) If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then the Closing Cash Consideration shall be increased by the Adjustment Amount, and if the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, the Closing Cash Consideration shall be decreased by the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount. The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.5(d).

(d) Promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date:

(i) if the Adjustment Amount is a positive number or zero, Buyer shall pay (or cause to be paid) to Seller an amount equal to the Adjustment Amount (if greater than zero); and

(ii) if the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, Seller shall pay (or cause to be paid) an amount to Buyer equal to the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount.

Such amounts shall be paid, in immediately available funds pursuant to the instructions previously delivered by Buyer or Seller, as applicable. Any amounts payable to Seller pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be paid net of any fees, costs or expenses that arise as a result of the payment of such amount and that would have been Outstanding Company Expenses if they were incurred and unpaid prior to the Closing.

(e) Each of Buyer and Seller shall ensure that it reserves a reasonably sufficient amount of available funds in order to be able to discharge any potential payment obligations that it may incur pursuant to this Section 2.5.

2.6 Outstanding Company Expenses. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Buyer a written report setting forth a list of all Outstanding Company Expenses, including the identity of each payee, dollar amounts owed, wire transfer instructions and any other information necessary to effect the final payment in full thereof, and copies of final invoices executed by each such payee acknowledging the invoiced amounts as full and final payment for all services rendered to the Company and its Subsidiaries.

2.7 Repayment of Retired Funded Debt. At and subject to the occurrence of the Closing, and subject to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (a) Buyer shall make available to the Company, or pay directly, an amount sufficient to pay all amounts owing with respect to the Retired Funded Debt outstanding on the Closing Date immediately prior to the Closing and (b) the Company, if such amount is not paid directly by Buyer, shall apply such cash to pay all amounts owing with respect to the Retired Funded Debt outstanding on the Closing Date immediately prior to the Closing. The Company shall (x) arrange for the delivery of customary payoff letters, UCC-3 termination statements and other terminations or releases necessary to terminate or release, as the case may be, the Company and its Subsidiaries from any further obligations under, and all Liens on the Company and its Subsidiaries’ properties and assets pursuant to, the Credit Documents (subject to customary exceptions), to be delivered at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date providing for the payoff, discharge and termination on the Closing of the Retired Funded Debt outstanding on the Closing Date immediately prior to the Closing (subject to receipt from Buyer of the funds necessary to effectuate the pay-off contemplated by such payoff letters, terminations and releases) and (y) deliver a draft of such payoff letters and lien terminations within a reasonable and customary time period prior to the Closing Date.

2.8 Withholding. Each of Buyer and its Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any cash amounts otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, and from any other consideration otherwise paid or delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such amounts that it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such deliveries and payments under the Code or any other provision of applicable Law. To the extent that Buyer or any of its Affiliates withholds such amounts with respect to any Person and properly remits such withheld amounts to the applicable Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to or on behalf of such Person. Each party hereto shall promptly notify the other party if it becomes aware of any Tax that is or may be required to be withheld from the consideration payable under this Agreement (other than any such Tax that is imposed (i) on consideration that is properly treated as compensation for U.S. federal Income Tax purposes, (ii) as a result of failure to provide forms needed to avoid backup withholding or (iii) as a result of a failure to provide forms required to avoid withholding under section 1445 of the Code) and the parties hereto will cooperate in good faith to minimize the amount of the withholding.

(i) All Non-U.S. Benefit Plans (1) have been maintained and operated in accordance with, and are in compliance with, their terms, applicable local Law, and with any agreement entered into with a union or labor organization, in each case, in all material respects, and (2) to the extent intended to be funded and/or book reserved, are funded and/or book reserved, as appropriate, based on reasonable actuarial assumptions.

Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Buyer shall cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (A) to maintain for a period of not less than six years from the Closing provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (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 certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement and (B) 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 and (ii) Buyer and the Company agree that any indemnification and advancement of expenses available to any current or former director of the Company or its Subsidiaries by virtue of such current or former director’s service as a partner or employee of any investment fund that is an Affiliate of the Company prior to the Closing (any such current or former director, a “Sponsor Director”) shall be secondary to the indemnification and advancement of expenses to be provided by the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.2 and that the Company and its Subsidiaries (A) shall be the primary indemnitors of first resort for Sponsor Directors pursuant to this Section 7.2, (B) shall be fully responsible for the advancement of all expenses and the payment of all Damages with respect to Sponsor Directors which are addressed by, and to the extent provided in, this Section 7.2 and (C) shall not make any claim for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind against such Sponsor Director or its Affiliates in respect of any other indemnification available to any Sponsor Director with respect to any matter addressed by this Section 7.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (x) no indemnification or advancement of funds shall be available under this Section 7.2 or otherwise by Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates in respect of any Damages relating to the breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder or under another Transaction Document of Seller, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates and (y) if any Damages that are indemnifiable by Buyer, the Company or its Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to be covered by the D&O Tail, then the person entitled to such indemnification shall be obligated to seek recourse under the D&O Tail before pursuing any such claim for indemnification (or expense advancement).

(b) The Company shall cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-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 Closing (the “D&O Tail”) and, if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.2 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(d) In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (including the flex provisions) (other than as a direct and proximate result of the Company’s material breach of any provision of this Agreement), Buyer shall take all actions within its control that are necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain any such portion from alternative sources, on terms, taken as whole, that are not materially more adverse to Buyer or the Debt Financing Subsidiary (including after giving effect to the market flex provisions) or that are otherwise reasonably acceptable to Buyer, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event; provided that the terms of such alternative financing shall not (A) impose new or additional conditions precedent or expand upon the conditions precedent to the Debt Financing as set forth in the existing Debt Commitment Letter or (B) reduce the aggregate amount of available Debt Financing to less than the amount required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (together with the other sources of Financing contemplated hereby).

All such Tax Returns that could reasonably give rise to a refund required to be paid to Seller pursuant to Section 8.2(d) shall be prepared in accordance with the past practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by applicable Law and Buyer shall provide drafts of such Tax Returns to Seller for review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (taking into account any applicable extensions), or as promptly as possible after Closing if the applicable due date is within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. Buyer shall consider in good faith any changes to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Seller.

(d) Any refunds (or credits obtained in lieu of refunds) of estimated Income Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (collectively, “Seller Refunds”) will, to the extent provided herein, be for the benefit of Seller except to the extent such Seller Refunds were included as an asset in Closing Date Debt (as finally determined pursuant to Section ‎2.5), and Buyer shall pay over to Seller any such Seller Refunds within ten (10) Business Days after the later of (i) the receipt thereof or (ii) the Determination Date, net of any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) in connection with obtaining such Seller Refunds (including any Taxes imposed thereon). Buyer shall reasonably cooperate, and cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to cooperate, in obtaining any Tax refund (or credit in lieu thereof) that Seller reasonably believes should be available, including through filing appropriate forms and amended returns with the applicable taxing authority. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.2(d) shall not apply to the 2016 Tax Refund, which shall be for the benefit of Buyer.

(e) For purposes of determining the portion of any Taxes for a Straddle Period that are properly includible in Specified Current Taxes and for purposes of determining any Seller Refunds, the taxable year of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to end with the Closing Date. For purposes of computing Specified Current Taxes and the amount payable pursuant to Section 8.2(d), the taxable year of any Subsidiary or former Subsidiary of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) that is a “controlled foreign corporation” (as defined in the Code) shall be deemed to have closed on the Closing Date, including for purposes of computing any inclusion under sections 951 and 951A of the Code.

(f) Except as otherwise required by Law, the parties hereto agree to treat for all Tax purposes all payments under this Section 8.2 as adjustments to the Closing Cash Consideration.

8.3 Notification. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller shall give prompt notice to Buyer, and Buyer shall give prompt notice to Seller, (i) of any notice or other communication received by such party from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) of any Actions relating to or otherwise affecting such party or any of its Affiliates which relate to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) any matter (including a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement) that would reasonably be expected to lead to the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to Closing in Article IX.

11.4 Assignment. No party hereto shall assign this Agreement or any part hereof without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that Buyer may, without the prior written consent of any other party, assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates or, after the Closing, may assign all or any portion of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any Person (including to any financing source as collateral to any acquirer of the Company or its business), in each case without the consent of any other Parties (but such assignment shall not relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder). Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

11.5 Rights of Third Parties. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the parties hereto, any right or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing (a) in the event the Closing occurs, the present and former officers and directors of the Company (and their successors, heirs and representatives) are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, Section 7.2, (b) each Debt Financing Source shall be an express third party beneficiary with respect to the DFS Provisions and (c) the Persons specified in Section 11.16 shall be express third party beneficiaries of such Section.

11.6 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each party hereto shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions herein contemplated whether or not such transactions shall be consummated, including all fees of its legal counsel, financial advisers and accountants; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant, if any, shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.5; provided, further, that Buyer shall be responsible for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses of Seller, the Company and their Subsidiaries (x) specified in Section 6.9(c), (y) incurred by the legal and accounting advisers of the Seller and the Company related to the preparation of the Proxy Statement and the preparation of the financial statements specified in Section 6.7(e) and (z) otherwise incurred in connection with Section 6.7; provided that (1) with respect to clause (z), such actions have been requested to be taken in advance by Buyer and (2) with respect to clauses (x), (y) and (z), (I) Buyer approved in writing the applicable fees, cost or expenses in advance of such fees, costs and expenses being incurred (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), (II) such fees, costs and expenses are incurred on the same cost basis as any similar fees, costs and expenses borne by Seller (including reflecting any applicable discounts or negotiated rates charged by the applicable service provider to Seller and its Affiliates) and (III) Buyer is provided with reasonably detailed itemized invoices (including time entry details for service providers billing by increments of time). Within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, Buyer shall deposit $1,000,000 into the bank account of an independent third party under an escrow or similar arrangement (the “Escrow Account”) on terms reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Buyer that will be available to make payments by Buyer pursuant to, and subject to the terms of, this Section 11.6. Buyer shall contribute funds from time to time to the Escrow Account to ensure that such account holds at least $250,000 until all fees, costs and expenses are fully paid and settled pursuant to this Section 11.6. Any interest earned on amounts subject to the Escrow Account will be for the benefit of Buyer, and any amounts remaining under this Escrow Account after all fees, costs and expenses are fully paid and settled pursuant to this Section 11.16 will be returned to Buyer. Upon the occurrence of the Closing, the Escrow Account shall terminate and any amounts remaining under the Escrow Account will be returned to Buyer, it being understood that the termination of the Escrow Account shall not release Buyer from its obligations under this Section 11.6.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any proceeding of any kind whatsoever, including a counterclaim, cross-claim, or defense, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory, that may be based upon, arising out of or related to the Debt Commitment Letter and/or Debt Financing (including any action, suit, claim, investigation, counterclaim or proceeding against or involving any Debt Financing Source, including their respective successors and permitted assigns) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to choice of law or conflicts of law rules or principles of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction that would cause the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York to apply.

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.

11.14 Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.

(a) Subject to Section 11.7, any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought 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 contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant to this Section 11.14. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party hereto agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance thereof or otherwise, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (AND IN THE CASE OF THE BUYER, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND THE BUYER AND ITS AFFILIATES) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER AND/OR THE DEBT FINANCING OR RELATING TO ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCE).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.14, each party hereto hereby submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and any appellate courts thereof with respect to any suit, action or proceeding against any Debt Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether at law or in equity and whether in tort, contract or otherwise, and hereby agrees that it will not bring or support any such suit, action or proceeding in any other forum.

11.15 Enforcement. (a) Subject to the terms of this Section 11.15, 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 obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions; provided that it is acknowledged and agreed by each Party that Seller and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of Buyer’s obligations to cause the Equity Financing and the FP Financing to be funded and to consummate the Closing only in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) all of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that, by their terms, are to be satisfied at the Closing but which conditions are then capable of being satisfied), (ii) the other sources of Financing contemplated hereby have been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Equity Financing and the FP Financing are funded at the Closing, (iii) Buyer is required to consummate the Closing in accordance with Section 2.2, and (iv) Seller and the Company have irrevocably confirmed in writing that (A) all conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.3 have been satisfied or are waived by Seller and (B) if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing, the FP Financing and the other sources of Financing contemplated hereby are funded, then the Closing will occur. For the avoidance of doubt, the requirements set forth in the foregoing proviso shall only apply and be a condition to Seller and the Company’s right to specific performance of Buyer’s obligations to cause the Equity Financing and the FP Financing to be funded and to consummate the Closing and shall not apply or be a condition to Seller and the Company’s right to specific performance of Buyer’s other obligations hereunder.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, subject to the terms of this Section 11.15, (i) 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, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement. The Parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to Closing, the Seller and the Company shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of, Section 7.7 (Debt Financing), Section 7.8 (Forward Purchase Agreements), Section 7.9 (Equity Financing) and Section 7.10 (Trust Account), including by compelling Buyer to enforce (or cause the Debt Financing Subsidiary to enforce) its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter, the Forward Purchase Agreements, the Equity Commitment Letters and the Trust Agreement through the commencement of litigation and other legal actions against the counterparties of the Debt Commitment Letter, the counterparties of the Forward Purchase Agreements, the Equity Financing Sources and the Trustee, as applicable. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting in accordance with the terms hereof 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 in accordance with the terms hereof to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 11.15 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction. In no event shall Seller or the Company be entitled to, or permitted to seek, specific performance in respect of any Equity Financing or FP Financing source, and nor shall there be any right of Seller or the Company to cause Buyer or the Debt Financing Subsidiary to, or any obligation of Buyer or the Debt Financing Subsidiary to, enforce specifically any of its or their respective rights under any Equity Commitment Letters or the Forward Purchase Agreements unless the conditions specified in clauses (i) – (iv) in Section 11.15(a) are satisfied.

FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN REAL PROPERTY TAX ACT CERTIFICATION

PURSUANT TO SECTION 1445 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE

Transferor’s Certification of Non-Foreign Status

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including Section 1445), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity. To inform the transferee, that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by Rack Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Transferor"), the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of the Transferor:

1. The Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

2. The Transferor is not a disregarded entity as defined in Treasury Regulations § 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii);

3. The Transferor's U.S. employer identification number is: 47-1899666; and

4. The Transferor's office address is:

12 E. 49^th Street, 20^th Floor

New York, NY

10017

The Transferor understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this certification and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct, and complete, and I further declare that I have authority to sign this document on behalf of the Transferor.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being a duly authorized officer of the general partner of the Transferor, has executed this certification as of [ ], 2019.
