ARTICLE IX
GENERAL PROVISIONS
9.1Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given and received (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or by facsimile upon confirmation of transmission by the sender’s fax machine if sent on a Business Day (or otherwise on the next Business Day), or by email upon confirmation of delivery if sent on a Business Day (or otherwise on the next Business Day) or (b) on the first Business Day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next-day courier service. All notices hereunder shall be delivered (i) with respect to Vantiv, the SLP Parties or the S Corp Parties, as set forth in Schedule B hereto and (ii) with respect to each Other TRA Party, as set forth on such Other TRA Party’s signature page counterpart hereto, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice. Any party may change its address or fax number by giving the other party written notice of its new address or fax number in the manner set forth above.
9.2Counterparts. This Addendum may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by the relevant signatories, it being understood that all signatories need not sign the same counterpart.
9.3Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. The TRA and this Addendum together 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 Addendum shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Addendum, 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 Addendum.
9.4Governing Law. This Addendum shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to applicable principles of conflict of laws.
9.5Severability. If any term or other provision of this Addendum is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Addendum 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 Addendum 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.
9.6Successors; Assignment; Amendments. No TRA Party may assign this Addendum to any person without the prior written consent of NPC or Vantiv; provided that (i)(A) any SLP Party may assign this Addendum to any Affiliate of such SLP Party that remains an Affiliate of such SLP Party for the term of
9
the Addendum, and (B) any S Corp Party may assign this Addendum to any Affiliate of such S Corp Party that remains an Affiliate of such S Corp Party for the term of this Addendum and (ii) any SLP Party or S Corp Party may assign this Addendum following the date of this Addendum to a third party following compliance with the right of first offer provisions set forth in Section 8.15 of the TRA, and provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the conversion of an S Corp Party to a limited liability company shall not be treated as an assignment subject to this Section 9.6. Neither NPC nor Vantiv may assign any of its rights, interests or entitlements under this Addendum. Subject to each of the two immediately preceding sentences, this Addendum will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns including any acquirer of all or substantially all of the assets of NPC and/or Vantiv. This Addendum may only be amended, supplemented or changed with respect to a TRA Party by a written instrument signed by such TRA Party, on the one hand, and NPC and Vantiv, on the other hand. After an assignment, NPC and its Affiliates will treat payments to any assignee of a TRA Party (other than payments to the extent treated as Imputed Interest) as resulting in additional Basis Adjustments provided that the relevant TRA Party has delivered NPC prior to the date of such assignment a written tax opinion from a nationally recognized tax advisor, which opinion and which advisor are reasonably acceptable to NPC, that such position is “more likely than not” to be correct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Addendum, including this Section 9.6, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any assignment made pursuant to Section 8.06 of the TRA must be accompanied by the corresponding assignment of all of such party’s rights and obligations under this Addendum made in accordance with this Section 9.6, and that none of such party’s rights under this Addendum may be assigned except pursuant to an assignment of all of such party’s rights under this Addendum together with all of such party’s rights and obligations under the TRA pursuant to Section 8.06 of the TRA.
9.7Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Addendum are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Addendum.
9.8Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. With respect to any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Addendum (collectively, a “Proceeding”), each party to this Addendum irrevocably (a) consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and any court of the U.S. located in the State of Delaware; (b) waives any objection which such party may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceeding brought in any such court, waives any claim that such Proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further waives the right to object, with respect to such Proceeding, that such court does not have jurisdiction over such party; (c) consents to the service of process at the address set forth for notices (i) in the case of Vantiv, an SLP Party or an S Corp Party, on Schedule B hereto, or (ii) in the case of any Other TRA Party, on such TRA Party’s signature page counterpart hereto; provided, however, that such manner of service of process shall not preclude the service of process in any other manner permitted under applicable law; and (d) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any Proceeding.
9.9Reconciliation. In the event that Vantiv and a TRA Party are unable to resolve a disagreement within the relevant period designated in the TRA or this Addendum, the matter shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert in the particular area of disagreement employed by a nationally recognized accounting firm or a law firm (other than the Accounting Firm), which expert is mutually acceptable to all parties and the Audit Committee (the “National Expert”). Any costs of the National Expert shall be borne equally by Vantiv, on the one hand, and the relevant TRA Party or TRA Parties, on the other hand. If the matter is not resolved before any payment that is the subject of a disagreement is due or any Tax Return reflecting the subject of a disagreement is due, such payment shall be made on the date prescribed by this Agreement in the amount proposed by Vantiv and such Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Vantiv, subject to adjustment or amendment upon resolution. The determinations of the National Expert pursuant to this Section 9. 9 shall be binding on Vantiv, on the one hand, and the relevant TRA Party or TRA Parties (and their respective Affiliates), on the other hand, absent manifest error.
9.10Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Addendum are not performed in accordance
10
with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each party agrees that each other party shall be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Addendum and to enforce specifically this Addendum and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the parties and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.
9.11Expenses. Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Addendum and the transactions contemplated hereby.
9.12No More Favorable Terms. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Section 8.12 of the TRA shall have no application to the payment obligations NPC has or may invoke via its call rights, or is or remains subject to via the put rights, under this Addendum, any of the terms hereof or any of the financial assumptions or calculations underlying such terms, and that Section 8.12 of the TRA shall only continue to apply to those payment obligations of NPC under the TRA not otherwise capable of being terminated and settled in full pursuant to this Addendum (or which were capable of being terminated and settled in full pursuant to this Addendum but with respect to which neither party has invoked its call or put rights under this Addendum).
9.13Withholding; Tax Treatment. Vantiv shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment payable pursuant to this Addendum such amounts as Vantiv is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, the Treasury Regulations, 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 Vantiv, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Addendum as having been paid to the TRA Parties. The parties agree that this Addendum shall be treated as a modification of the TRA for U.S. federal income tax purposes and entering into this Addendum shall not be treated as a separate taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and that any payments by Vantiv pursuant to this Addendum are on behalf of NPC and shall be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as payments pursuant to the TRA.
