ARTICLE 4

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS; TAG-ALONG RIGHTS; DRAG-ALONG RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS

Section 4.01. Preemptive Rights.

(a) Subject to Section 4.01(g), the Corporation hereby grants to each Stockholder that owns (including all shares owned by such Stockholder’s Related Persons) at least 1.0% of the Aggregate Common Stock as of the close of business on the record date determined by the Board of Directors (each such Stockholder, together with each such Related Person of such Stockholder, a “Preemptive Rightsholder”), which record date shall not be more than ten (10) Business Days prior to, and shall not be later than, the Corporation’s delivery of the Issuance Notice, the right to purchase up to its pro rata portion (based on the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Preemptive Rightsholder as of the close of business on the record date, as a percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock owned (without duplication) by all Preemptive Rightsholders) of any (i) New Securities that the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries proposes to sell or issue to any Person and (ii) Debt Securities that the Corporation or such Subsidiary proposes to sell or issue solely or predominantly to any Related Party, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) at any time and from time to time after the date hereof (with respect to a Preemptive Rightsholder, such Preemptive Rightsholder’s “Preemptive Share”). The rights of Preemptive Rightsholders to purchase New Securities and Debt Securities pursuant to this Section 4.01 (the “Securities Purchase Right”) shall apply at the time of issuance of any right, warrant, or option or convertible or exchangeable security that constitutes a New Security or Debt Security, as applicable, and not to the subsequent conversion, exchange or exercise of such New Security or Debt Security, as applicable, in accordance with its terms.

(b) The Corporation shall give each Preemptive Rightsholder written notice of any proposed issuance or sale of New Securities or Debt Securities that is subject to the Securities Purchase Right, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance or sale. Such notice (an “Issuance Notice”) shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the proposed transaction, including the proposed manner of issuance or sale, a description of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, the total number of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, proposed to be issued or sold, the proposed issuance or sale date, the proposed purchase price per share, and (if known) the name and address of the proposed purchaser of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable.

16

(c) At any time during the ten (10) Business Days following receipt of an Issuance Notice, each Preemptive Rightsholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to irrevocably elect, by written notice to the Corporation, to purchase up to its Preemptive Share of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, at the purchase price set forth in the Issuance Notice and upon the other terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice; provided, however, that no Preemptive Rightsholder shall be obligated (or permitted without the Corporation’s consent) to purchase any New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 4.01 unless all required regulatory approvals, if any, applicable to such purchase have been obtained. Except as provided in the next sentence, the purchase of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, by the electing Preemptive Rightsholders shall be consummated concurrently with the consummation of the issuance or sale described in the Issuance Notice. The closing of the purchase of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, by any electing Preemptive Rightsholder may be extended beyond the closing of the transaction described in the Issuance Notice, to the extent necessary to (i) obtain required approvals of any Governmental Entity and other required regulatory approvals which such Preemptive Rightsholder shall be diligently pursuing in good faith (and the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any approvals required to be obtained by it; provided that the Corporation shall not be required to incur any out-of-pocket unreimbursed expenses in connection therewith other than those expenses that are not related to any specific Preemptive Rightsholder or specific group of Preemptive Rightsholders) and (ii) permit the Preemptive Rightsholder to complete its internal capital call process following receipt of the Issuance Notice; provided, however, in each case such Preemptive Rightsholder shall have no more than 180 days (in the case of obtaining approvals) or 30 days (in the case of completing an internal capital call) after delivery of the applicable Issuance Notice to obtain such approvals or complete such internal capital call process. If a Preemptive Rightsholder does not obtain the required approvals or complete its internal capital calls within the time set forth in the preceding sentence, such Preemptive Rightsholder shall be deemed to have not exercised its Securities Purchase Right and the Corporation shall have the right to issue such New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, in accordance with the Issuance Notice, and references to the date the applicable Issuance Notice was given in Section 4.01(e) (and without regard to Section 4.01(d)) shall be deemed to refer to the date that the period set forth in the preceding sentence ended. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the closing of any purchase of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, by any Preemptive Rightsholder is extended pursuant to this paragraph, such extension shall not preclude the consummation of the issuance or sale of the remaining New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, described in the Issuance Notice from occurring prior to such closing.

(d) To the extent that one or more Preemptive Rightsholders do not timely exercise their Securities Purchase Rights in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.01 or elect to exercise any such rights less than in full (the difference between the maximum number of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, such Preemptive Rightsholder could have elected to purchase under this Section 4.01 and the number of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, for which such Preemptive Rightsholder exercised its preemptive rights under this Section 4.01, such Preemptive Rightsholder’s “Individual Excess Shares” and the Individual Excess Shares of all such Preemptive Rightsholders, the “Excess Shares”), then the Corporation (or the applicable Subsidiary) shall offer to sell to the Preemptive

17

Rightsholders that have validly elected to purchase all of their Preemptive Share of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, the Excess Shares pro rata (based on the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Preemptive Rightsholder (without giving effect to the issuance pursuant to the Issuance Notice) divided by the number of shares of Common Stock owned (without duplication) by all Preemptive Rightsholders exercising in full their Securities Purchase Rights) and at the same price and on the same terms as those specified in the Issuance Notice, and such Preemptive Rightsholders shall have the right to acquire all or any portion of such Excess Shares within two (2) Business Days following the expiration of the period specified in Section 4.01 by delivering written notice thereof to the Corporation. The Corporation shall continue to offer additional portions to Preemptive Rightsholders validly electing to purchase their full pro rata portion of such Excess Shares pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) until the earlier of (i) all New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, proposed to be issued by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries and with respect to which Preemptive Rightsholders were entitled to exercise their rights under this Section 4.01 have been allocated to the Preemptive Rightsholders or (ii) no Preemptive Rightsholder remains who has any further right to purchase (including as a result of having waived its rights to purchase) Excess Shares pursuant to the foregoing provision.

(e) Following compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.01, the Corporation (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall be free to consummate the proposed issuance or sale of all or any portion of the remaining New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, that the Preemptive Rightsholders have not elected to purchase, on terms no less favorable to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries than those set forth in the Issuance Notice; provided, that (i) such issuance or sale is closed within ninety (90) days after the date the related Issuance Notice was given, except that, if such issuance or sale is subject to regulatory approval, such ninety (90)-day period shall be extended until the expiration of five (5) Business Days after all such approvals have been received, but in no event later than one hundred and ninety (190) days after the related Issuance Notice was given, and (ii) the price at which the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, are transferred must be equal to or higher than the purchase price described in the Issuance Notice. In the event that the Corporation (or its applicable Subsidiary) has not sold such New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, within such ninety (90)-day period (as may be extended as set forth in the preceding sentence), the Corporation (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, without first again offering such securities to the Stockholders entitled to preemptive rights in the manner provided in this Section 4.01.

(f) The rights and obligations set forth in this Section 4.01 shall automatically terminate upon, and shall cease to have any force or effect following, the earlier of (i) the date the Class A Common Stock is listed on a National Securities Exchange in the United States (a “Listing”), or (ii) the consummation of the first public offering and sale of Class A Common Stock by the Corporation (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any similar or successor form), pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (such public offering and sale, an “IPO”).

18

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Corporation and/or any of its Subsidiaries may issue or sell New Securities or Debt Securities to a purchaser (an “Accelerated Buyer”) without first complying with the provisions of this Section 4.01 if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that it is in the best interests of the Corporation to consummate such issuance or sale without having first complied with such provisions; provided, that in connection with any such issuance or sale, the Corporation shall give the Preemptive Rightsholders written notice of such issuance or sale as promptly as practicable, which notice (an “Accelerated Sale Notice”) shall describe in reasonable detail (a) the material terms and conditions of the issuance or sale of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, to the Accelerated Buyer, including the number or amount and description of the New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, issued, the issuance or sale date, the purchase price per share, and the name and address of the Accelerated Buyer and (b) the rights of the Preemptive Rightsholders to purchase New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, pursuant to this paragraph, in connection with such issuance or sale. In the event of any such issuance or sale of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, to an Accelerated Buyer, each Preemptive Rightsholder shall have the right, at any time during the ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the Accelerated Sale Notice, to elect to purchase New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, in an amount equal to the amount of such New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, it would have been entitled to purchase if the issuance or sale to the Accelerated Buyer had instead been completed without regard to this Section 4.01(g), including pursuant to Section 4.01(d). If one or more Preemptive Rightsholders exercise the election to make a purchase, the Corporation shall give effect to each such exercise by either (i) requiring that the Accelerated Buyer sell down a portion of its New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, or (ii) issuing additional New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, to such Preemptive Rightsholder, or a combination of (i) and (ii), so long as such action effectively provides such Preemptive Rightsholder with the same number of New Securities or Debt Securities, as applicable, it would have received had this paragraph not been utilized.

(h) A Preemptive Rightsholder may assign its Securities Purchase Right to any Person or Persons in connection with a Transfer of Common Stock to such Person by such Preemptive Rightsholder that agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Preemptive Rightsholder by executing a Joinder.

Section 4.02. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) If at any time prior to the earlier of a Listing or the consummation of an IPO, any one or more Stockholders (collectively, the “Tag-Along Seller”) propose to Transfer shares of Common Stock that constitute more than fifty percent (50%) of the Aggregate Common Stock to one or more purchasers that are not Related Persons of the Tag-Along Seller in any transaction or series of related transactions (a “Tag-Along Transfer”), then, each other Stockholder shall have the right (a “Tag-Along Right”) to exercise tag-along rights in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 4.02 (any such Stockholder exercising such rights, a “Tagging Stockholder”). The rights and obligations set forth in this Section 4.02 shall automatically terminate upon, and shall cease to have any force or effect following, the earlier of (i) a Listing or (ii) the consummation of an IPO.

19

(b) The Tag-Along Seller shall promptly give notice (a “Tag-Along Notice”) to the Corporation setting forth the number of shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Class B Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller, the name and address of the proposed transferee (the “Tag-Along Transferee”), the proposed purchase price for each such share of Common Stock (which shall be the same price for Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock) (the “Tag-Along Per Share Consideration”), and any other material terms and conditions of the Tag-Along Transfer. Upon receipt of any such Tag-Along Notice, the Corporation shall promptly (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days following receipt thereof) provide such Tag-Along Notice to each Stockholder. Each Stockholder shall have a period of ten (10) Business Days from the mailing date of the Tag-Along Notice by the Corporation to elect to sell in the Tag-Along Transfer (i) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock up to its Tag-Along Pro Rata Portion and (ii) a number of shares of Class B Common Stock up to its Pro Rata Tag Along Portion, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) at a price per share equal to the Tag-Along Per Share Consideration; provided that the Tag-Along Seller shall be entitled to include the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller as set forth in the Tag-Along Notice (reduced, to the extent necessary, so that each Tagging Stockholder shall be able to include its Tag-Along Pro Rata Portion of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock); provided, further, that the Tag-Along Seller shall cause the Tag-Along Transferee to accept the Tag-Along Pro Rata Portion of any Tagging Stockholder’s Class B Common Stock even if the Tag-Along Transferee had not proposed to acquire any shares of Class B Common Stock from the Tag-Along Seller. Any Stockholder may exercise such right by delivery of an irrevocable written notice to the Tag-Along Seller specifying the number of shares of Common Stock such Stockholder desires to include in the Tag-Along Transfer. The Tag-Along Seller shall have a period of one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days following the expiration of the ten (10) day period referred to above to consummate the Tag-Along Transfer, on the payment terms specified in the Tag-Along Notice. If the Tag-Along Seller and the Tag-Along Transferee (i) have not consummated the Tag-Along Transfer in the time period set forth in the preceding sentence or (ii) propose to consummate the Tag-Along Transfer at a different price or on different terms than those set forth in the Tag-Along Notice, then the Tag-Along Seller shall not be permitted to consummate the Tag-Along Transfer without again giving the Stockholders the opportunity to Transfer shares of Common Stock in accordance with this Section 4.02. As used herein, “Tag-Along Pro Rata Portion” means a number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable, determined by multiplying (i) the number of shares of such Common Stock owned by the applicable Tagging Stockholder by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Tag-Along Seller in the Tag-Along Transfer and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Common Stock immediately prior to such Tag-Along Transfer.

20

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.02, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Tag-Along Seller to the Tagging Stockholders or any other Person if the Tag-Along Transfer pursuant to this Section 4.02 is not consummated for whatever reason. Whether to effect a Tag-Along Transfer pursuant to this Section 4.02 by the Tag-Along Seller is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Tag-Along Seller.

(d) Each Tagging Stockholder (i) shall be required to give representations and warranties (in a form customary for transactions of the nature of the Tag-Along Transfer) only in relation to its due organization, authority, noncontravention of laws and agreements and title to its shares of Common Stock being transferred in the Tag-Along Transfer, (ii) shall not be required to agree to any restrictive covenant (such as a non-compete or non-solicit or similar restriction) other than a customary confidentiality covenant, (iii) shall not be required to provide any indemnification (A) with respect to any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by any Tag-Along Seller, the Corporation (except pursuant to a holdback or escrow as described in clause (iv) below) or any other Person or (B) in an amount exceeding the net proceeds received by such Tagging Stockholder in connection with the Tag-Along Transfer, and (iv) shall not be subject, in excess of its ratable share of the shares of Common Stock being transferred in the Tag-Along Transfer, to any holdback(s) or escrow(s) in respect of potential indemnification obligations (including with respect to indemnification for breaches of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Corporation) or purchase price adjustment(s) pursuant to the applicable definitive purchase agreement.

(e) This Section 4.02 shall not apply to a Transfer pursuant to Section 4.03.

Section 4.03. Drag-Along Rights.

(a) If holders of Common Stock (the “Drag-Along Sellers”) owning 50% or more of the Aggregate Common Stock propose to Transfer shares of Common Stock held by them constituting at least 50% of the Aggregate Common Stock (a “Drag-Along Sale”), the Drag-Along Sellers may at their option (the “Drag-Along Rights”) require each other Stockholder (the “Other Stockholders”) to:

(i) sell a number of shares of the (i) Class A Common Stock owned by such Other Stockholder equal to the Drag-Along Portion of such Other Stockholder and (ii) Class B Common Stock owned by such Other Stockholder equal to the Drag-Along Portion of such Other Stockholder, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii) to the Person to whom the Drag-Along Sellers propose to sell their shares of Common Stock (the “Drag-Along Buyer”) and on the same terms and conditions as the Drag-Along Sellers; provided that the Class B Common Stock shall be sold on the same terms and conditions as the Class A Common Stock;

(ii) if such Drag-Along Sale requires Stockholder approval, with respect to all shares of Common Stock that such Other Stockholder owns or over which such Other Stockholder otherwise exercises voting power, vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all shares of Common Stock in favor of, and adopt, such Drag-Along Sale and to vote in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Drag-Along Sellers to consummate such Drag-Along Sale;

21

(iii) subject to Section 4.03(d)(ii), execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Drag-Along Sale as shall reasonably be requested by the Corporation or the Drag-Along Sellers in order to carry out the terms and provision of this Section 4.03, including, without limitation, executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, share certificates duly endorsed for transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances), and any similar or related documents;

(iv) not deposit, and to cause their Related Persons not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any shares of Common Stock owned by such Other Stockholder in a voting trust or subject any shares of Common Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Common Stock, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquirer in connection with the Drag-Along Sale; and

(v) waive, and refrain from exercising, any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable Law at any time with respect to such Drag-Along Sale.

(b) If the consideration to be paid in exchange for the shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 4.03 includes any securities and due receipt thereof by any holder of Common Stock would require (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any Person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any Stockholder of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Corporation may cause to be paid to any such Other Stockholder in lieu thereof, against surrender of the shares of Common Stock which would have otherwise been sold by such Stockholder, an amount in cash equal to the fair value of the securities which such Other Stockholder would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the shares of Common Stock (based on the market price of such other securities if such securities are listed on a National Securities Exchange, or as determined in good faith by the Corporation if not so listed); provided that such Other Stockholder shall have the right to object to the determination and require the Corporation retain an independent third-party accounting, valuation, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing mutually acceptable to the Corporation and the Other Stockholder to determine the then current fair market value of the shares of Common Stock. The Corporation and the Other Stockholder (or if more than one Other Stockholder is objecting, all objecting Other Stockholders) shall each bear one-half of the fees and expenses of the independent third-party accounting, valuation, appraisal or investment banking firm selected as set forth in the preceding sentence.

22

(c) If the Drag-Along Sellers elect to exercise their Drag-Along Rights, the Drag-Along Sellers shall provide notice of such proposed Drag-Along Sale to the Corporation (a “Drag-Along Sale Notice”). Upon receipt of any such Drag-Along Sale Notice, the Corporation shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof) give written notice of such Drag-Along Sale Notice to each Other Stockholder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.03, the obligations of the Other Stockholders to participate in a Drag-Along Sale are subject to the following conditions:

(i) the Drag-Along Sale must include all Other Stockholders;

(ii) each Other Stockholder (A) shall be required to give representations and warranties (in a form customary for transactions of the nature of the Drag-Along Sale) only in relation to its due organization, authority, noncontravention of laws and agreements and title to its shares of Common Stock being transferred in the Drag-Along Sale, (B) shall not be required to agree to any restrictive covenant (such as a non-compete or non-solicit or similar restriction) other than a customary confidentiality covenant, (C) shall not be required to provide any indemnification (x) with respect to any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by any Drag-Along Seller, the Corporation (except pursuant to a holdback or escrow as described in clause (D) below) or any other Person or (y) in an amount exceeding the net proceeds received by such Other Stockholder in connection with the Drag-Along Sale, and (D) shall not be subject, in excess of its ratable share of the shares of Common Stock being transferred in the Drag-Along Sale, to any holdback(s) or escrow(s) in respect of potential indemnification obligations (including with respect to indemnification for breaches of representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Corporation) or purchase price adjustment(s) pursuant to the applicable definitive purchase agreement;

(iii) subject to Section 4.03(b), upon the consummation of the Drag-Along Sale, each Other Stockholder will receive the same form of consideration for its shares of Common Stock as is received by the Drag-Along Sellers; provided that the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to the same form of consideration as the Class A Common Stock; and

(iv) if any Drag-Along Sellers are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a result of the Drag-Along Sale, all Other Stockholders will be given the same option; provided, however, no Other Stockholder shall be entitled to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is established in good faith and generally applicable to the Corporation’s stockholders.

23

(e) This Section 4.03 and the rights and obligations contained herein shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) a Listing or (ii) the consummation of an IPO and shall thereafter have no force or effect.

Section 4.04. Fundamental Transactions. In the event that holders of Common Stock owning more than 50% of the Aggregate Common Stock (the “Selling Holders”) propose to effect (i) a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) a merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction or series of transactions (other than a Drag-Along Sale) the result of which is that any Person or “group” (as defined in Section 13 of the Exchange Act) becomes the beneficial owner (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation (each transaction described in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Fundamental Transaction”), each Other Stockholder agrees it will take all actions requested by the Selling Holders that may be necessary or desirable to consummate such Fundamental Transaction, including, if applicable, to vote in favor of such Fundamental Transaction, to waive any dissenters’ or appraisal rights in connection therewith and, if such Fundamental Transaction is structured as a transaction the approval of which requires a vote of stockholders, to deliver an executed proxy, which shall be coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, authorizing the Selling Holders to vote such Other Stockholder’s shares of Common Stock in favor of such Fundamental Transaction. Each Other Stockholder shall also, to the extent applicable, (A) make such representations, warranties and covenants, provide such indemnities and enter into such definition agreements as are customary for transactions of the nature of the Fundamental Transaction; provided that if the Other Stockholders are required to provide any representations or indemnities in connection with such Fundamental Transaction (other than representations and indemnities concerning each Other Stockholder’s title to the Common Stock and authority, power and right to enter into and consummate the Fundamental Transaction without contravention of any law or agreement), liability for misrepresentation or indemnity shall (as to such Other Stockholders) be expressly stated to be several but not joint and each Other Stockholder shall not be liable for more than its pro rata share (based on the number of shares of Common Stock Transferred pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction) of any liability for misrepresentation or indemnity, (B) benefit from all of the same provisions of the definitive agreements as the Selling Holders and (C) be required to bear its pro rata share (based on the number of shares of Common Stock Transferred pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction) of any escrows, holdbacks or adjustments in purchase price.

Section 4.05. Tolling. All time periods specified in Sections 4.02 and 4.03 are subject to reasonable extension for the purpose of complying with requirements of applicable Laws, as determined by the Board of Directors.

Each Stockholder agrees that it shall use, and that it shall direct any Person to whom Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to clauses (i) through (v) below to use, the Confidential Information only in connection with its investment in the Corporation and not for any other purpose (including to disadvantage competitively the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries). Each Stockholder further acknowledges and agrees that it shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed:

(i) to such Stockholder’s Representatives (other than a Competitor) in the normal course of the performance of their duties or, in connection with such credit arrangement, to any financial institution providing, or potentially providing, credit to such Stockholder;

(ii) for purposes of reporting to its, or its Related Persons’, stockholders and direct and indirect equity holders and limited partners, in each case other than a Competitor, the performance of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (or otherwise in connection with customary fundraising, marketing, information or reporting activities of such Persons) and for purposes of including applicable information in financial statements to the extent required by applicable Law or applicable accounting standards;

provided that with respect to the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), any such Persons receiving Confidential Information shall be informed by the Stockholder of the Confidential Information, such Person shall agree and be obligated to keep such information confidential in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.02 and any Stockholder disclosing such Confidential Information shall be liable for any unauthorized disclosures of such Confidential Information in violation of this Section 5.02 by any such Persons;

25

(iii) to any Person to whom such Stockholder is contemplating a bona fide Transfer of its Common Stock, other than a Competitor; provided that such Transfer would not be in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or the Charter and such potential Transferee is advised of the confidential nature of such information and agrees to be bound by a confidentiality agreement consistent with this Section 5.02 and any Stockholder disclosing such Confidential Information will be liable for any breaches of this Section 5.02 by any such Persons;

(iv) to any regulatory authority or rating agency to which the Stockholder or any of its Related Persons is subject or with which it has regular dealings; provided that such authority or agency is advised of the confidential nature of such information;

(v) to the extent related to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including all materials of any kind, such as opinions or other tax analyses that the Corporation, its Affiliates or its Representatives have provided to such Stockholder relating to such tax treatment and tax structure); provided that the foregoing does not constitute an authorization to disclose the identity of any existing or future party to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or their Affiliates or Representatives, or, except to the extent relating to such tax structure or tax treatment, any specific pricing terms or commercial or financial information;

(vi) if the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel of the Corporation or the Board of Directors shall have been obtained; or

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.02(a)(iii), in connection with a potential Transfer, any transferring Stockholder may provide Confidential Information to a bona fide potential transferee (a “Proposed Transferee”), and can require the Corporation (at the sole cost and expense of such transferring Stockholder) (i) to provide to the Proposed Transferee reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records, financial and operating data and such other information of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries as may reasonably be requested in connection with such Transfer in order to allow the Proposed Transferee and their representatives to conduct a reasonable and customary due diligence review, (ii) as reasonably requested, instruct the employees, counsel and financial advisors of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries to cooperate with the

26

Proposed Transferee in its investigation of the Corporation (including, as reasonably requested, by participating in a reasonable number of due diligence sessions upon prior notice) or (iii) to provide to the Proposed Transferee reasonable access during normal business hours to the facilities and other premises of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, so long as, in the case of (i)-(iii), (A) the Proposed Transferee enters into a customary non-disclosure agreement with the Corporation on terms reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, and (B) in the case of a Transfer that is not a Drag-Along Sale, the Proposed Transferee is not a Competitor. In assessing the reasonableness of a request made pursuant to this Section 5.02(b), the Corporation may take into account the size of the interest subject to the applicable potential transfer.

(c) Nothing contained herein shall prevent the use (subject, to the extent possible, to a protective order) of Confidential Information in connection with the assertion or defense of any claim by or against the Corporation, its Subsidiaries or any Stockholder or will restrict in any manner the ability of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries to comply with its disclosure obligations under applicable Law. Furthermore, nothing contained herein shall in any way limit or otherwise modify any confidentiality obligations owed by any Stockholder to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries pursuant to any other agreement entered into by such Stockholder, the Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and this Section 5.02 shall be in addition to such other agreement.

ARTICLE 6

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 6.01. General Transfer Restrictions; Joinder.

(a) Without limiting the provisions of this Agreement, each Stockholder agrees that it shall not Transfer any Common Stock at any time if such Transfer would not comply with the terms of this Agreement. As a condition precedent to any Transfer, the Corporation may require an opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to it that registration under the Securities Act is not required. Each Person who hereafter acquires Common Stock in a Transfer from a Stockholder and is not already a Stockholder shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such Transfer, execute and deliver a Joinder to this Agreement, and any Transfer in which the acquirer of Common Stock does not so deliver a Joinder (if applicable) shall be void ab initio.

(b) At any time prior to an IPO, the Corporation may refuse to register any transfer of shares of Common Stock if, as a result of such transfer, the Common Stock, in the aggregate, would be held of record by more than 1,950 holders or more than 450 holders who are not “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act); provided that if the Corporation is then availing itself of the suspension of its obligation to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Corporation may refuse any such transfer if, as a result of such transfer, the Common Stock, in the aggregate, would be held of record by 300 persons or more (as such terms are used in Rule 12(h)-3 of the Exchange Act). If the Corporation becomes aware that the Common Stock, in the aggregate, becomes held of record by more than 1,900 holders or more than 400 holders who are not “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act), the Corporation will notify all Stockholders of such fact.

27

Section 6.02. Registration Rights. Upon consummation of an IPO, the Corporation shall enter into a registration rights agreement with each Stockholder that owns (together with its Related Persons) at least 5.0% of the Aggregate Common Stock as of the consummation of an IPO which will be in a form that is customary for registration rights agreements entered into by similar Persons in similar transactions and reasonably acceptable to the Corporation and each Stockholder party thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, the registration rights agreement shall include and provide for the following with respect to the applicable Stockholders:

(a)(i) two (2) aggregate post-IPO demand registration rights for each Stockholder that owns (together with its Related Persons) at least 10% of the Aggregate Common Stock as of the consummation of the IPO (including customary shelf registration rights), (ii) one (1) post-IPO demand registration right for each Stockholder that owns (together with its Related Persons) at least 5% but below 10% of the Aggregate Common Stock as of the consummation of the IPO (including customary shelf registration rights) and (iii) unlimited post-IPO demand registration rights (including customary shelf registration rights) for any group of Stockholders (together with their Related Persons) who in the aggregate own at least 20% of the Aggregate Common Stock as of the consummation of the IPO; provided that, in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Corporation will not be required to effectuate a demand registration more than one time in any six month period and each demand registration right must be for a minimum offering amount, to be more fully detailed in the registration rights agreement;

(b) unlimited piggyback registration rights (subject to customary exceptions and cutback rights);

(c) no more than a one hundred eighty (180) day lock-up provision in the case of an IPO, subject to customary exceptions; and

(d) no more than a ninety (90) day lock-up provision in the case of any other public offering.

Section 6.03. Legends.

(a) All shares of Common Stock issued to any Person shall bear a legend, or be evidenced by notations in a book entry system including a legend, in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS CONDITIONS INCLUDING CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON ANY OFFER, SALE, DISPOSITION, TRANSFER AND VOTING AS SET FORTH IN THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF FEBRUARY 2, 2021 (THE “STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT”), BY AND AMONG SUPERIOR ENERGY SERVICES, INC. (THE “CORPORATION”), AND THE

28

STOCKHOLDERS PARTY THERETO FROM TIME TO TIME, AND THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS OF THE CORPORATION, EACH AS MAY BE AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME. NO REGISTRATION OR TRANSFER OF SUCH SECURITIES WILL BE MADE ON THE BOOKS AND RECORDS OF THE CORPORATION OR ITS TRANSFER AGENT UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH RESTRICTIONS SHALL HAVE BEEN COMPLIED WITH. THE CORPORATION WILL FURNISH WITHOUT CHARGE TO EACH HOLDER OF RECORD OF SUCH SECURITIES A COPY OF THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS, CONTAINING THE ABOVE REFERENCED RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS AND VOTING OF SECURITIES, UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE CORPORATION AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS.”

(b) All shares of Common Stock issued to any Person, unless the Corporation determines in good faith such shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code or another exemption such that the Transfer of such shares are not restricted under the U.S. federal securities laws shall be evidenced by notations in a book entry system including a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM AND, IN EACH CASE, IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. AS A CONDITION TO ANY TRANSFER, THE CORPORATION RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

(c) The Corporation acting in good faith may make any necessary modifications to the legends set forth in this Section 6.03 for such legends to comply with applicable Law and to achieve the purpose and intent of the transfer restrictions set forth herein. If any shares of Common Stock cease to be subject to any and all restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Agreement, the Charter and the Bylaws, the Corporation, upon the written request of the holder thereof, shall amend the notations in the book entry system (or, if certificated, issue to such holder a new certificate) evidencing such shares accordingly.

Section 6.04. Specific Enforcement. Each Party acknowledges that the remedies at Law of the other Parties for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, any Party, without posting any bond, and in addition to all other remedies that may be available, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available.

29

Section 6.05. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by any Party pursuant to any Transfer or otherwise, except as expressly set forth herein.

Section 6.06. Amendments. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless executed in writing by the Corporation and Stockholders (together with their Related Persons) holding at least a majority of the Aggregate Common Stock; provided that (i) so long as the Goldentree Stockholders are entitled to any Goldentree Director, any amendment or modification of Article 2 (other than Section 2.07) shall also require approval of the Goldentree Stockholders if such amendment or modification would be disadvantageous to the Goldentree Stockholders, (ii) so long as the Monarch Stockholders are entitled to the Monarch Director, any amendment or modification of Article 2 (other than Section 2.07) shall also require approval of the Monarch Stockholders if such amendment or modification would be disadvantageous to the Monarch Stockholders, (iii) any amendment or modification that adversely affects a Stockholder (each such Stockholder, an “Affected Stockholder”) in a manner disproportionate to the manner in which it affects other Stockholders shall also require the approval of Stockholders holding a majority of the Common Stock then held by all such Affected Stockholders, (iv) the provisions of Article 3 cannot be amended or modified with respect to a Stockholder then entitled to an Observer without the prior written consent of such Stockholder, and (v) any amendment or modification of any clause of this Section 6.06, or any other provision of this Agreement, that provides for the approval of a given Stockholder or group of Stockholders or approval by at least a specified percentage of Stockholders shall also require approval of that Stockholder or group of Stockholders or at least that specified percentage of Stockholders, as applicable.

Section 6.07. Termination. Other than Section 5.02, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to a Stockholder as of the time at which such Stockholder ceases to own shares of Common Stock.

Section 6.08. Addresses and Notices. Any notice, request, demand or instruction specified or permitted by this Agreement will be in writing and will be either personally delivered, or received by certified mail, return receipt requested, or sent by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) to the applicable recipient or by facsimile, email or other electronic transaction at the address set forth below.

Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof signed by the Person entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated at which such notice is required to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

33

Section 6.15. Aggregation of Affiliates and Related Persons. To the extent any action, consent or right under this Agreement requires a threshold level of ownership of Common Stock by a given Stockholder, the ownership of Common Stock by such Stockholder and its Related Persons shall be aggregated for the purposes of satisfying such threshold.

Section 6.16. Independent Agreement by the Stockholders. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute an agreement, arrangement, or understanding with respect to acting together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of any Common Stock and the Stockholders do not constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, as amended. Nothing contained in this Agreement, any of the other Organizational Documents or the Plan of Reorganization and no action taken by any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute or to create a presumption by any parties that the Stockholders are in any way acting in concert or as a “group” (or a joint venture, partnership or association), and each of the Corporation and the Stockholders agree to not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Organizational Documents or the Plan of Reorganization.

Unless expressly set forth herein, the Parties may not waive any provision of this Agreement, except pursuant to a written instrument signed by the Party or Parties hereto against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any Party, constitutes a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any provision of this Agreement. The waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement is effective only in the instance and only for the purpose that it is given and does not operate and is not to be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such provision or as a waiver of any other provision. No failure by any Party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

34

Section 6.20. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Section 6.21. Further Action. The Parties shall execute and deliver all documents, provide all information and take or refrain from taking such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to achieve the purposes of this Agreement.

No Party or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of electronic transmission by a facsimile machine or via email to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through such electronic transmission as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 6.23. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including PDFs), each of which will be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement binding on all the Parties. This Agreement shall become effective on the date first set forth above.
