Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, Blackstone agrees not to take any action to remove any Wellspring Designee as a director without the consent of Wellspring, and Wellspring agrees not to take any action to remove any Blackstone Designee without the consent of Blackstone.

(e) The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including with respect to any fiduciary duties under Delaware law), to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board for election at any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing Directors the persons designated pursuant to this Section 2.1 (to the extent that Directors of such nominee’s class are to be elected at such meeting, for so long as the Board is classified) and to nominate and recommend each such individual to be elected as a Director as provided herein, and to solicit proxies or consents in favor thereof. The Company is entitled to identify such individual as a Blackstone Designee or a Wellspring Designee, as applicable, pursuant to this Stockholders Agreement.

Subject to Section 3.2, any Blackstone Entity and any Wellspring Entity (and any party receiving Information from a Blackstone Entity or a Wellspring Entity) who shall receive Information shall maintain the confidentiality of such Information, and the Company shall not be required to disclose any privileged Information of the Company so long as the Company has used its commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an arrangement pursuant to which it may provide such information to the Blackstone Entities and the Wellspring Entities without the loss of any such privilege.
