ARTICLE 2
DETERMINATION OF CUMULATIVE REALIZED TAX BENEFIT

Section 2.01. Exchange Basis Schedule. Within 60 calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Corporation Return for each Taxable Year, the Corporation shall deliver to each Member that participated in an Exchange for such Taxable Year, a schedule (the “Exchange Basis Schedule”) that shows in reasonable detail (i) the Non-Stepped Up Tax Basis of the Exchange Assets as of each applicable Exchange Date, (ii) the Basis Adjustment Amount with respect to the Exchanges effected in such Taxable Year, calculated in the aggregate, (iii) the period or periods, if any, over which the Exchange Assets are amortizable and/or depreciable and

(iv) the period or periods, if any, over which each Basis Adjustment Amount is amortizable and/or depreciable (which, for non-amortizable assets, shall be based on the Valuation Assumptions).

Section 2.02. Tax Benefit Schedule. (a) Within 60 calendar days after the filing of the U.S. federal income Corporation Return for any Taxable Year in which there is a Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment, the Corporation shall provide to each Member that previously participated in an Exchange a schedule showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year (a “Tax Benefit Schedule”). Each Tax Benefit Schedule will become final as provided in Section 2.03(a) and may be amended as provided in Section 2.03(b) (subject to the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(b)).

(b) Applicable Principles. Subject to Section 3.03, the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for each Taxable Year is intended to measure the decrease or increase in the actual liability for Taxes of the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary for such Taxable Year attributable to the Basis Adjustments and Imputed Interest determined using a “with and without” methodology. The actual liability for Taxes will take into account the deduction of the portion of the Tax Benefit Payment that must be accounted for as interest under the Code based upon the characterization of Tax Benefit Payments as additional consideration payable by the Corporation for the Units acquired in an Exchange. Carryovers or carrybacks of any Tax item attributable to the Basis Adjustments and the Imputed Interest shall be considered to be subject to the rules of the Code and the Treasury Regulations or the appropriate provisions of U.S. state and local income and franchise Tax law, as applicable, governing the use, limitation and expiration of carryovers or carrybacks of the relevant type. If a carryover or carryback of any Tax item includes a portion that is attributable to the Basis Adjustment or the Imputed Interest and another portion that is not, such portions shall be considered to be used in accordance with the “with and without” methodology. All Tax Benefit Payments (other than amounts accounted for as interest under the Code) will (A) be treated as subsequent upward purchase price adjustments that give rise to further Basis Adjustments to Exchange Assets for the Corporation and (B) have the effect of creating additional Basis Adjustments to Exchange Assets for the Corporation in the year of payment, and, as a result, such additional Basis Adjustments will be incorporated into the current year calculation and into future year calculations, as appropriate.

Section 2.03. Procedures, Amendments.

(a) Procedures. Each time the Corporation delivers to the Members a Schedule under this Agreement, including any Amended Schedule, but excluding any Early Termination Schedule or amended Early Termination Schedule, the Corporation also shall (x) deliver to each Eligible Member the Corporation Return, along with schedules and work papers, as determined by the Corporation or requested by such Eligible Member, providing reasonable detail regarding the preparation of such Schedule and (y) allow the Eligible Members reasonable access to the appropriate representatives of the Corporation and the Advisory Firm (if any) in connection with a review of such Schedule. Each party shall bear its own expenses associated with such review and investigation. The applicable Schedule shall become final and binding on all parties unless an Eligible Member, within 60 calendar days after an Exchange Basis Schedule or amendment thereto or a Tax Benefit Schedule or amendment thereto was provided to the Members, provides

the Corporation with notice of an objection to such Schedule (“Objection Notice”) made in good faith. If the Corporation and such Eligible Member are unable to resolve the issues raised in such notice within 60 calendar days of receipt by the Corporation of an Objection Notice with respect to such Exchange Basis Schedule or Tax Benefit Schedule, the Corporation and such Eligible Member shall employ the reconciliation procedures as provided for in Section 7.09 of this Agreement.

(b) Amended Schedule. The applicable Schedule for any Taxable Year shall be amended from time to time by the Corporation (i) in connection with a Determination affecting such Schedule, (ii) to correct material inaccuracies in the Schedule identified as a result of the receipt of additional factual information that was not previously taken into account, (iii) to comply with the Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation Procedures, (iv) to reflect a material change (relative to the amounts in the original Tax Benefit Schedule) in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to a carryback or carry forward of a loss or other Tax item to such Taxable Year, (v) to reflect a material change (relative to the amounts in the original Tax Benefit Schedule) in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable Year, or (vi) to adjust the Exchange Basis Schedule to take into account payments made pursuant to this Agreement (any such Schedule, an “Amended Schedule”).

ARTICLE 3
TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS

Section 3.01. Payments.

(a) Payments. Subject to Section 3.03, within five (5) Business Days of a Tax Benefit Schedule that was delivered to the Applicable Members becoming final in accordance with Section 2.03(a), the Corporation shall pay to the Applicable Members the applicable Tax Benefit Payment determined pursuant to Section 3.01(b). Each such Tax Benefit Payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank accounts of the Applicable Members previously designated by each such Member to the Corporation; provided that no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of estimated Tax payments, including estimated U.S. federal income Tax payments.

(b) A “Tax Benefit Payment” means, with respect to an Applicable Member, an amount, not less than zero, equal to the sum of (A) the Net Tax Benefit allocable to such Member and (B) the Interest Amount allocable to such Member. For the avoidance of doubt, for Tax purposes, the Interest Amount shall not be treated as interest but instead shall be treated as additional consideration for Units in Exchanges. The “Net Tax Benefit” for a Taxable Year shall be an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit as of the end of such Taxable Year over (ii) the total amount of Tax Benefit Payments with respect to Net Tax Benefits previously made under this Section 3.01; provided, however, that no Member shall be required to return any portion of any previously received Tax Benefit Payment under any circumstances. The “Interest Amount” for a Taxable Year shall equal the interest on the Net Tax Benefit for such Taxable Year calculated at the Agreed Rate from the due date (without extensions) for the filing of the Corporation Return with respect to Taxes for such Taxable Year until the Payment Date. The Net Tax Benefit shall be determined separately with

respect to each separate Exchange on an individual basis by reference to the Exchange of a Unit and the resulting Basis Adjustments to the Corporation (as determined pursuant to Section 2.02(b)).

(i) Within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of an Amended Schedule to the Applicable Members for any Taxable Year, the Corporation shall pay to the Applicable Members an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the amount such Member is entitled to receive under this Agreement in respect of the relevant Taxable Year (based on such Amended Schedule) over (y) the cumulative amount such Member actually received in respect of such Taxable Year pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii) In the event that an Amended Schedule reflects a decrease in the Realized Tax Benefit (including by reason of net operating loss carryovers or carrybacks) and payments have previously been made based on the higher Realized Tax Benefit reflected in any prior Schedule (either such excess, an “Excess Payment”), future payments, if any, to be made under this Section 3.01 shall be reduced by the amount of the Excess Payment until such Excess Payment has effectively been repaid. For the avoidance of doubt, if future payments are insufficient to repay any Excess Payment (a “Shortfall”), the Members shall have no obligation to repay to the Corporation or any other Person any such Shortfall.

(d) Payment Covenant. The Corporation shall use best efforts to ensure that it has sufficient Available Cash to make all payments due under this Agreement without regard to the last sentence of Section 4.01(b), including using best efforts to cause the Company to make distributions to the Corporation to make such payments so long as there is not a continuing default or event of default under any credit agreement, loan agreement, note, indenture or other agreement governing indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Corporation and such payment or incurrence of indebtedness would not give rise to a default under any such credit agreement, loan agreement, note, indenture or other agreement governing indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Corporation.

Section 3.02. No Duplicative Payments. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in duplicative payment of any amount (including interest) required under this Agreement. It is also intended that the provisions of this Agreement, subject to Article 4 and Section 7.14, will result in an amount equal to 85% of the Corporation’s Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit being paid over to the Members. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in the appropriate manner to ensure such intentions are realized.

Section 3.03. Pro Rata Payments. (a) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.01 to the contrary, to the extent that (i) the Corporation’s or any Exchanging Subsidiary’s aggregate Tax benefit with respect to any Basis Adjustment or Imputed Interest is limited in a particular Taxable Year because the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary does not have sufficient taxable income, the limitation on the Tax benefit for the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary shall be allocated among the Exchanging Members in proportion to the respective amounts of Realized Tax Benefits that would have been determined under this Agreement in

respect of each Exchanging Member if the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary had sufficient taxable income so that there were no such limitation.

(b) If for any reason the Corporation does not fully satisfy its payment obligations to make all Tax Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year, then the Corporation and the Exchanging Members agree that (i) the Corporation shall pay the same proportion of each Tax Benefit Payment due under this Agreement in respect of such Taxable Year, without favoring one obligation over the other, and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of prior Taxable Years have been made in full.

Section 4.01. Early Termination, Change of Control and Breach of Agreement. (a) The Corporation may terminate this Agreement at any time with respect to all of the Units held (or previously Exchanged) by all Members by paying to the Applicable Members the Early Termination Payment; provided, however, that this Agreement shall terminate only upon the receipt of the Early Termination Payment by all Applicable Members, and provided, further, that the Corporation may withdraw any Early Termination Notice prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment has been paid. Upon payment of the Early Termination Payment by the Corporation, neither the Members nor the Corporation shall have any further payment obligations under this Agreement, other than for any (x) Tax Benefit Payment agreed to by the Corporation and the Applicable Member, acting in good faith, to be due and payable but unpaid as of the Early Termination Notice and (y) Tax Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of the Early Termination Notice (except to the extent that the amount described in this clause (y) is included in the Early Termination Payment). If an Exchange occurs after the Corporation makes the Early Termination Payments with respect to all Applicable Members, the Corporation shall have no obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Exchange, and its only obligation under this Agreement in such case shall be its obligations under Section 4.03(a).

(b) Upon a Change of Control or if the Corporation breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, then all of the Corporation’s obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such Change of Control or breach and such obligations shall include, but shall not be limited to, (1) the Early Termination Payment calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such acceleration, (2) any Tax Benefit Payment agreed to by the Corporation and any Applicable Member, acting in good faith, to be due and payable but unpaid as of the date of such acceleration and (3) any Tax Benefit Payment due for the Taxable Year ending with or including the date of such acceleration (except to the extent that the amount described in this clause (3) is included in the amount described in clause (1)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation breaches this Agreement, the Members shall be entitled to elect to receive the amounts set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above or any other remedy available at law or in equity. The parties agree that the failure to make any payment due pursuant to this Agreement within three months of the date such payment is due shall be deemed to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement;

provided that it will not be considered to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement to make a payment due pursuant to this Agreement within three months of the date such payment is due; provided, further that except as provided in Section 3.01(d), the failure to make any payment due pursuant to this Agreement as a result of (a) a prohibition, restriction or covenant under any credit agreement, loan agreement, note, indenture or other agreement governing indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Corporation or (b) restrictions under applicable law, including the rules and regulations of applicable gaming authorities, shall not be considered to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement.

(c) The Corporation, the Company and each of the Members hereby acknowledge and agree that, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of each Exchange, the timing and aggregate value of the Tax Benefit Payments cannot reasonably be ascertained for U.S. federal income Tax or other applicable Tax purposes.

Section 4.02. Early Termination Notice. If the Corporation exercises its right of early termination under Section 4.01, the Corporation shall deliver to each Member notice of the exercise of such right (“Early Termination Notice”) and a schedule (the “Early Termination Schedule”) showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment with respect to such Member. At the time the Corporation delivers the Early Termination Notice to the Members, the Corporation shall (a) deliver to each Member schedules and work papers, as determined by the Corporation or requested by a Member, providing reasonable detail regarding the calculation of the Early Termination Payment and (b) allow each Member reasonable access to the appropriate representatives of the Corporation and the Advisory Firm (if any) in connection with its review of such calculation. Each party shall bear its own expenses associated with such review. The Early Termination Payment set forth in the Early Termination Schedule shall become final and binding on the parties unless any Eligible Member provides the Corporation with notice of an objection to the calculation of the Early Termination Payment made in good faith within 60 calendar days after the Early Termination Schedule was provided to the Members (or such shorter period as may be mutually agreed in writing by the parties). If any Eligible Member provides the Corporation with written notice of its objection to the calculation of the Early Termination Payment set forth in the Early Termination Schedule, and such Eligible Member and the Corporation, for any reason, cannot agree upon the amount of the Early Termination Payment within 60 calendar days following the Corporation’s receipt of such Eligible Member’s objection, the Corporation and such Eligible Member shall employ the Reconciliation Procedures as described in Section 7.09 of this Agreement.

Section 4.03. Payment upon Early Termination. (a) Within five (5) Business Days after the Early Termination Schedule has become final and binding, the Corporation shall pay to each Applicable Member an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment. Such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated by the Applicable Member.

(b) The “Early Termination Payment” as of the date of the delivery of an Early Termination Schedule shall equal, with respect to the Applicable Member, the present value, discounted at the Early Termination Rate as of such date, of all Tax Benefit Payments that would be required to be paid by the Corporation to the Applicable Member beginning from the Early Termination Date and assuming that the Valuation Assumptions are applied.

ARTICLE 5
SUBORDINATION AND LATE PAYMENTS

Section 5.01. Subordination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment required to be made by the Corporation to the Members under this Agreement (an “Exchange Payment”) shall rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to any principal, interest or other amounts due and payable in respect of all obligations in respect of indebtedness for borrowed money of the Corporation (“Senior Obligations”) and shall rank pari passu with all current or future unsecured obligations of the Corporation that are not Senior Obligations.

Section 5.02. Late Payments by the Corporation. The amount of all or any portion of any Exchange Payment not made to any Member when due (without regard to Section 5.01) under the terms of this Agreement shall be payable together with interest thereon, computed at the Default Rate and commencing from the date on which such Exchange Payment was due and payable.

ARTICLE 6
NO DISPUTES; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION

Section 6.01. Eligible Member Participation in the Corporation’s and the Company’s Tax Matters. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein or in the LLC Agreement, the Corporation shall have full responsibility for, and sole discretion over, all Tax matters concerning the Corporation, the Company and any Exchanging Subsidiary, including the preparation, filing or amending of any Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling any issue pertaining to Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall notify the applicable Eligible Member of, and keep the applicable Eligible Member reasonably informed with respect to, the portion of any audit of the Corporation, the Company and any Exchanging Subsidiary by a Taxing Authority the outcome of which is reasonably expected to affect the applicable Eligible Member’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and shall provide such Eligible Member reasonable opportunity to provide information and other input to the Corporation, the Company, any Exchanging Subsidiary and their respective advisors concerning the conduct of any such portion of such audit; provided, however, that the Corporation, the Company and any Exchanging Subsidiary shall not be required to take any action that is inconsistent with any provision of the LLC Agreement. The Corporation and any Exchanging Subsidiary shall not settle or fail to contest any issue pertaining to Taxes that is reasonably expected to adversely affect any Member’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each such Member that is an Eligible Member, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) If the Corporation, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries receives a 30-day letter, a final audit report, a statutory notice of deficiency or similar written notice from any Taxing Authority with respect to the Tax treatment of any Exchange (a “Change Notice”), which, if sustained, would result in (i) a reduction in the amount of Realized Tax Benefit with respect to a Taxable Year preceding the Taxable Year in which the Change Notice is received or (ii) a reduction in the amount of Tax Benefit Payments the Corporation will be required to pay to any Member with respect to Taxable Years after and including the Taxable Year in which the

Change Notice is received, the Corporation shall deliver prompt written notice of such Change Notice to such Member.

Section 6.02. Consistency. (a) Except upon the written advice of an Advisory Firm to the Corporation or as otherwise required by law, the Corporation, the Members and any Exchanging Subsidiary agree to report and cause to be reported for all purposes, including U.S. federal, state and local Tax purposes and financial reporting purposes, all Tax-related items (including items arising from the Basis Adjustments and each Tax Benefit Payment) in a manner consistent with that specified by the Corporation in any Schedule provided by or on behalf of the Corporation under this Agreement. Any Dispute concerning such advice shall be subject to Section 7.09; provided, however, that only the Eligible Members shall have the right to object to such advice pursuant to this Section 6.02.

(b) In the event that an Advisory Firm is replaced by the Corporation, such replacement Advisory Firm shall be required to perform its services under this Agreement using procedures and methodologies consistent with those used by the previous Advisory Firm, unless (a) otherwise required by law or upon the advice of the Corporation’s counsel or (b) the Corporation and each such affected Member that is an Eligible Member agree to the use of other procedures and methodologies.

Section 6.03. Cooperation. The Members shall (a) furnish to the Corporation in a timely manner such information, documents and other materials as the Corporation may reasonably request for purposes of making any determination or computation necessary or appropriate under this Agreement, preparing any Tax Return or contesting or defending any audit, examination or controversy with any Taxing Authority, (b) make themselves available to the Corporation and its representatives to provide explanations of documents and materials and such other information as the Corporation or its representatives may reasonably request in connection with any of the matters described in clause (a) above, and (c) reasonably cooperate in connection with any such matter described in clause (a) above. The Corporation shall reimburse the applicable Member for any reasonable third-party costs and expenses incurred pursuant to this Section 6.03.

Section 6.04. Section 754 Elections. If at any point the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries that is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes does not have a Section 754 Election in effect, the Corporation shall cause the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, to make a Section 754 Election at the time that the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, files its next U.S. federal income Tax Return.

Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 7.03. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 7.06, this Agreement, the Exchange Agreement and the LLC Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns in accordance with Section 7.06, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 7.04. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

Section 7.05. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially

adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 7.06. Successors; Assignment; Amendments; Waivers. No Member may assign its rights under this Agreement to any person without the prior written consent of the Corporation; provided, however, that (i) to the extent Units are effectively transferred in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement, the transferring Member may assign to the transferee of such Units the transferring Member’s rights under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Units, as long as such transferee has executed and delivered, or, in connection with such transfer, executes and delivers, a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (or such other joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation), agreeing to become a “Member” for all purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in such Joinder Agreement, and (ii) once an Exchange has occurred, any and all payments that may become payable to a Member pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Exchanged Units may be assigned to any Person or Persons, as long as any such Person has executed and delivered, or, in connection with such assignment, executes and delivers, a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (or such other joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation), provided, further, however, that no such assignment or transfer shall relieve any party hereto of any of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.06, no assignee described in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding paragraph shall have any rights under this Agreement except for the right to enforce its right to receive payments under this Agreement and under no circumstances shall the rights and privileges conferred upon Eligible Members hereunder be transferable. In the event an Eligible Member transfers its Units to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the LLC Agreement), such Eligible Member shall have the right, on behalf of such transferee, to enforce such rights and privileges with respect to such transferred Units.

No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is approved in writing by each of (i) the Corporation, (ii) the Company, (iii) the Members holding a majority of the then outstanding Units (excluding Units held by the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary), and (iv) as long as DB or FI Station Investor holds a number of Units that is equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) of the Post-IPO Units, the consent of DB and/or FI Station Investor, as applicable; provided, that no such amendment shall be effective if such amendment would have a disproportionate effect on the payments certain Members will or may receive under this Agreement unless all such Members affected consent in writing to such amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be waived unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. The Corporation shall require and cause any direct or indirect successor (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Corporation, by written agreement,

expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

Section 7.07. Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the articles, sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement.

Section 7.08. Resolution of Disputes. (a) Any and all disputes that are not governed by Section 7.09, including any ancillary claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) (each a “Dispute”) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in New York in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (except as may be modified by mutual agreement of the Corporation, the Company and each of the affected Members). If the parties to the Dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the American Arbitration Association shall make the appointment. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer admitted to the practice of law in the State of New York and shall conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings. In addition to monetary damages, the arbitrator shall be empowered to award equitable relief, including an injunction and specific performance of any obligation under this Agreement. The arbitrator is not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory damages, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right to recover punitive, consequential, exemplary or similar damages with respect to any Dispute. The award shall be final and binding upon the parties as from the date rendered, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues, or accounting presented to the arbitral tribunal. Judgment upon any award may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction over a party or any of its assets.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), the Corporation may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Member (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 7.08 to any such action or proceeding and (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate.

(c) EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION 7.08, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to

confirm an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the forums designated by this paragraph (c) have a reasonable relation to this Agreement, and to the parties’ relationship with one another. The parties hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such ancillary suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referred to in the first sentence of this Section 7.08(c) and such parties agree not to plead or claim otherwise.

Section 7.09. Reconciliation. In the event that the Corporation and the disputing Eligible Member are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to a matter governed by Sections 2.03, 4.02, or 6.02 within the relevant period designated in this Agreement (“Reconciliation Dispute”), the Reconciliation Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “Expert”) in the particular area of disagreement mutually acceptable to both parties. The Expert shall be a partner in a nationally recognized accounting firm or a law firm (other than the Advisory Firm), and the Expert shall not, and the firm that employs the Expert shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the Corporation and such Eligible Member, have any material relationship with either the Corporation or such Eligible Member. If the parties are unable to agree on an Expert within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt by the respondent(s) of written notice of a Reconciliation Dispute, the Expert shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association. The Expert shall resolve any matter relating to the Exchange Basis Schedule or an amendment thereto or the Early Termination Schedule or an amendment thereto within thirty (30) calendar days and shall resolve any matter relating to a Tax Benefit Schedule or an amendment thereto within fifteen (15) calendar days or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable, in each case, after the matter has been submitted to the Expert for resolution. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the matter is not resolved before any payment that is the subject of a disagreement would be due (in the absence of such disagreement) or any Tax Return reflecting the subject of a disagreement is due, the undisputed amount shall be paid on such date and such Tax Return may be filed as prepared by the Corporation, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. In the event that this reconciliation provision is utilized, the costs and expenses relating to the engagement of the Expert or amending any Tax Return shall be borne by the Corporation. The Corporation and each Eligible Member shall otherwise bear their own costs and expenses of such proceeding, unless an Eligible Member has a prevailing position that is more than 15% of the payment at issue, in which case the Corporation shall reimburse such Eligible Member for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in such proceeding. Any dispute as to whether a dispute is a Reconciliation Dispute within the meaning of this Section 7.09 shall be decided by the Expert. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute and the determinations of the Expert pursuant to this Section 7.09 shall be (i) final and may be enforced as if it were the award of an arbitrator issued under and pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association and (ii) binding on the Corporation and the Members and may be entered and enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction.

Section 7.10. Withholding. (a) The Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Corporation is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority by

the Corporation, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Member in respect of whom such withholding was made.

(b) If the Corporation determines that it is required to deduct and withhold taxes with respect to any payment payable to an Applicable Member pursuant to this Agreement, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify such Applicable Member and will consider in good faith any theories, positions or alternative arrangements that such Applicable Member raises (reasonably in advance of the date on which the Corporation believes withholding is required) as to why withholding is not required or that may avoid the need for such withholding, provided that the Corporation is not required to incur additional costs as a result of such obligation and this Section 7.10(b) shall not in any manner limit the authority of the Corporation to withhold Taxes with respect to an Applicable Member pursuant to Section 7.10(a) hereof.

Section 7.11. Admission of the Corporation into a Consolidated Group; Transfers of Corporate Assets. (a) If the Corporation becomes a member of an affiliated or consolidated group of corporations that files a consolidated income Tax Return pursuant to Section 1501 et seq. of the Code or any corresponding provisions of state, local or foreign law, then: (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall be applied with respect to the group as a whole; and (ii) Exchange Payments and other applicable items hereunder shall be computed with reference to the consolidated taxable income of the group as a whole.

(b) If the Corporation is obligated to make an Exchange Payment hereunder and the Corporation or any Exchanging Subsidiary transfers one or more assets to a corporation (or a Person classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes) that is not a successor pursuant to Section 7.06 and with which the Corporation does not file a consolidated Tax Return pursuant to Section 1501 of the Code, such transferor, for purposes of calculating the amount of any Exchange Payment (e.g., calculating the gross income of the transferor and determining the Realized Tax Benefit of such transferor) due hereunder, shall be treated as having disposed of such asset in a fully taxable transaction on the date of such transfer. The consideration deemed to be received by such transferor shall be equal to the fair market value of the transferred asset, plus (i) the amount of debt to which such asset is subject, in the case of a transfer of an encumbered asset or (ii) the amount of debt allocated to the transferred partnership interest and the amount of debt to which such partnership interest is subject, in the case of a transfer of a partnership interest.

Section 7.12. Confidentiality. Each Member acknowledges and agrees that the information of the Corporation and of its Affiliates is confidential and, except in the course of performing any duties as necessary for the Corporation and its Affiliates, as required by law or legal process or to enforce the terms of this Agreement, such person shall keep and retain in the strictest confidence and not disclose to any Person any confidential matters, acquired pursuant to this Agreement, of the Corporation and its Affiliates and successors, concerning the Company and its Affiliates and successors or the other Members, learned by the Member heretofore or hereafter. This Section 7.12 shall not apply to (i) any information that has been made publicly available by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, becomes public knowledge (except as a result of an act of such Member in violation of this Agreement) or is generally known to the business community and (ii) the disclosure of information to the extent necessary for a Member

to prepare and file his or her Tax Returns, to respond to any inquiries regarding the Exchange from any Taxing Authority or to prosecute or defend any action, proceeding or audit by any Taxing Authority with respect to such returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Member (and each employee, representative or other agent of such Member or assignee, as applicable) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax treatment and Tax structure of the Corporation, the Company, the Members and their Affiliates, and any of their transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other Tax analyses) that are provided to the Members relating to such Tax treatment and Tax structure.

If a Member commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 7.12, the Corporation shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 7.12 specifically enforced by injunctive relief or otherwise by any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post any bond or other security, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach may cause irreparable injury to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or the other Members and the accounts and funds managed by the Corporation and that money damages alone shall not provide an adequate remedy to such Persons. Such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 7.13. LLC Agreement. This Agreement shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of the Company as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-l(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

Section 7.14. Change in Tax Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in law, a Member reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could cause income (other than income arising from receipt or accrual of a payment under this Agreement) recognized by any Member or any direct or indirect owner of a Member upon the IPO or any Exchange to be treated as ordinary income rather than capital gain (or otherwise taxed at ordinary income rates) for U.S. federal income Tax purposes or would have other material adverse Tax consequences to a Member or any direct or indirect owner of a Member, then (i) at the election of the Member and to the extent specified by the Member, this Agreement shall not apply with respect to an Exchange by the Member occurring after a date specified by the Member, (ii) at the election of the Member, this Agreement shall otherwise be amended in accordance with Section 7.06 in a manner determined by the Corporation and the Members, acting jointly, provided that such amendment shall not result in an increase in payments under this Agreement at any time as compared to the amounts and times of payments that would have been due in the absence of such amendment or (iii) at the election of the Members, acting unanimously, this Agreement shall cease to have further effect. For the avoidance of doubt, any election pursuant to this Section 7.14 shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement and shall not trigger an Early Termination Payment under Section 4.01.

Section 7.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
