Section 5.01         Initial Capital Contributions. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and as set forth in the respective Unit Purchase Agreements, each Initial Member, each F3C Preferred Co-Investor, and the F3C Common SPV has made the Capital Contribution giving rise to such Member’s Capital Account and is deemed to own the number, type, series and class of Units, in each case in the amounts set forth opposite such Member’s name on the Members Schedule as in effect on the date hereof. Such initial Capital Contributions shall be used to provide the equity financing necessary to close the Merger (including paying and reimbursing transaction expenses in connection therewith) and provide cash to fund the operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries. Additionally, to the extent any Warrant is exercised (or deemed to have been exercised pursuant to Section 3(g) of any Warrant Agreement), the Warrant Holder (or such other Person in whose name Common Units are to be issued upon exercise of such Warrant in accordance with Section 3(g) of the applicable Warrant Agreement), will, upon payment in full of the aggregate exercise price in accordance with the applicable Warrant Agreement, be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution in respect of the Common Units issuable to such Warrant Holder or other Person in an amount equal to such aggregate exercise price.

Section 5.02        Additional Capital Contributions Generally. Except in connection with the exercise of any Warrants, or as provided in the Additional Equity Commitment Letters, (a) no Member shall be required to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company, and any future Capital Contributions made by any Member shall be made only with the consent of the Board and in connection with an issuance of Units made in compliance with Section 9.01, and (b) no Member shall be required to lend any funds to the Company and no Member shall have any personal liability for the payment or repayment of any Capital Contribution by or to any other Member.

Section 5.03         Maintenance of Capital Accounts.

(a)         The Company shall establish and maintain for each Member a separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) on its books and records in accordance with this Section 5.03. Each Capital Account shall be established and maintained in accordance with the following provisions:

(i)           Each Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of:

(A)           such Member’s Capital Contributions, including such Member’s initial Capital Contribution;

(B)           any Net Income or other item of income or gain allocated to such Member pursuant to ARTICLE VI; and

(C)           any liabilities of the Company that are assumed by such Member or secured by any property Distributed to such Member.

(ii)           Each Member’s Capital Account shall be decreased by:

(A)           the cash amount or Book Value of any property Distributed to such Member pursuant to ARTICLE VII and Section 13.03(c);

(B)            the amount of any Net Loss or other item of loss or deduction allocated to such Member pursuant to ARTICLE VI; and

(C)           the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or which are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.

Section 5.04        Succession Upon Transfer. In the event that any Units are Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the Transferor to the extent it relates to the Transferred Units and, subject to Section 6.04, shall receive allocations and Distributions pursuant to ARTICLE VI, ARTICLE VII and ARTICLE XIII in respect of such Units.

Section 5.05          Negative Capital Accounts. In the event that any Member shall have a deficit balance in his or her, her or its Capital Account, such Member shall have no obligation, during the term of the Company or upon dissolution or liquidation thereof, to restore such negative balance or make any Capital Contributions to the Company by reason thereof, except as may be required by Applicable Law or in respect of any negative balance resulting from a withdrawal of capital or dissolution in contravention of this Agreement.

Section 5.06          No Withdrawal. No Member shall be entitled to withdraw any part of his or her, her or its Capital Account or to receive any Distribution from the Company, except as provided in this Agreement. No Member shall receive any interest, salary or drawing with respect to its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Capital Accounts are maintained for the sole purpose of allocating items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members and shall have no effect on the amount of any Distributions to any Members, in liquidation or otherwise.

Section 5.07          Treatment of Loans from Members. Loans by any Member to the Company shall not be considered Capital Contributions and shall not affect the maintenance of such Member’s Capital Account, other than to the extent provided in Section 5.03(a)(i)(C), if applicable.

Section 5.08         Modifications. The foregoing provisions and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. If the Board determines that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any increases or decreases to the Capital Accounts, are computed in order to comply with such Treasury Regulations, the Board may authorize such modifications.

ARTICLE VI
Allocations

Section 6.01         Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss. For each Fiscal Year (or portion thereof), except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Net Income and Net Loss (and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain, loss or deduction) of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that, after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.02, the Capital Account balance of each Member, immediately after making such allocations, is, as nearly as possible, equal to (i) the Distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 13.03(c) if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Book Value, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each Nonrecourse Liability to the Book Value of the assets securing such liability) and the net assets of the Company were Distributed, in accordance with Section 13.03(c), to the Members immediately after making such allocations, minus (ii) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets.

Section 6.02          Regulatory and Special Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.01:

(a)           If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain (determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(d)(1)) during any Fiscal Year, each Member shall be specially allocated Net Income for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.02(a) is intended to comply with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b)           Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, each Member that has a share of such Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain shall be specially allocated Net Income for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Fiscal Years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain. Items to be allocated pursuant to this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.02(b) is intended to comply with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirements in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c)           In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or Distributions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), Net Income shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustments, allocations or Distributions as quickly as possible. This Section 6.02(c) is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d)           The allocations set forth in Section 6.02(a), Section 6.02(b) and Section 6.02(c) above (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 704. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this ARTICLE VI (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating Net Income and Net Losses among Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of Net Income and Net Losses and other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

(e)           The Company and the Members acknowledge that allocations like those described in Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(xii)(c) (“Forfeiture Allocations”) result from the allocations of Net Income and Net Loss provided for in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company is entitled to make Forfeiture Allocations and, once required by applicable final or temporary guidance, allocations of Net Income and Net Loss will be made in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(xii)(c) or any successor provision or guidance.

Section 6.03          Tax Allocations.

(a)           Subject to Section 6.03(b) through Section 6.03(e), all income, gains, losses and deductions of the Company shall be allocated, for federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses and deductions among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts, except that if any such allocation for federal income tax purposes is not permitted by the Code or other Applicable Law, the Company’s subsequent income, gains, losses and deductions shall be allocated among the Members for federal income tax purposes, to the extent permitted by the Code and other Applicable Law, so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocation set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts.

(b)           Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with Code Section 704(c) and any method permitted under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b), as determined by the Board, so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value.

(c)           If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) as provided in clause (c) of the definition of Book Value, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c).

(d)          Allocations of tax credit, tax credit recapture and any items related thereto shall be allocated to the Members according to their interests in such items as determined by the Board taking into account the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii).

(e)           The Company shall make allocations pursuant to this Section 6.03 in accordance with the traditional method in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d).

(f)           Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.03 are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Net Income, Net Losses, Distributions, or other items pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.04         Allocations in Respect of Transferred Units. In the event of a Transfer of Units during any Fiscal Year made in compliance with the provisions of ARTICLE X, Net Income, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company attributable to such Units for such Fiscal Year shall be determined using the interim closing of the books method.

Section 6.05         Curative Allocations. In the event that the Partnership Representative determines, after consultation with counsel experienced in income tax matters, that the allocation of any item of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction is not specified in this ARTICLE VI (an “Unallocated Item”), or that the allocation of any item of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction hereunder is clearly inconsistent with the Members’ Economic Interests in the Company (determined by reference to the general principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and the factors set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(3)(ii)) (a “Misallocated Item”), then the Board may allocate such Unallocated Items, or reallocate such Misallocated Items, to reflect such Economic Interests; provided, that no such allocation will be made without the prior consent of each Member that would be adversely and disproportionately affected thereby; and provided, further, that no such allocation shall have any material effect on the amounts Distributable to any Member, including the amounts to be Distributed upon a Change of Control, Deemed Liquidation Event or the complete liquidation of the Company.

ARTICLE VII
Distributions

Section 7.01         General.

(a)           Distributions at Discretion of Board. Subject to Section 7.01(c), Section 7.02, Section 7.03 and Section 7.04, the Board shall have sole discretion regarding the amounts and timing of Distributions to Members, including to decide to forego payment of Distributions in order to provide for the retention and establishment of reserves, or payment to third parties, of such funds as it deems necessary with respect to the reasonable business needs of the Company (which needs may include the payment or the making of provision for the payment when due of the Company’s obligations, including but not limited to present and anticipated debts and obligations, capital needs and expenses, the payment of any management or administrative fees and expenses and reasonable reserves for contingencies).

The Board shall cause any such payments to be made upon completion (or as soon thereafter as is practicable) of any Deemed Liquidation Event, Change of Control or Qualified Public Offering. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.01(b) to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), any transaction pursuant to which any Person or group (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and as defined in Rule 13d-5 thereunder) Affiliated with F3C acquires Units possessing in the aggregate and on a Fully Diluted Basis the right to vote a majority of issued and outstanding Units on a Fully Diluted Basis, including without limitation any single transaction or series of related transactions and whether by merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination, sale or Transfer of Units or Unit Equivalents, or otherwise, shall not be considered a Change of Control.

(c)           No Distributions Violative of Delaware Act. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not make any Distribution to Members if such Distribution would violate § 18-607 of the Delaware Act or other Applicable Law.

(a)           Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution. From and after the date of issuance of any Series A Preferred Unit, a quarterly Distribution shall be payable, whether or not declared by the Board, on each Series A Preferred Unit (a “Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution”) in an amount equal to the Series A Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield on such Series A Preferred Unit as of the date of such quarterly Distribution. The holders of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive the Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution in preference to any dividend or Distribution made on any Junior Units and pari passu with the Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution and the Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution (if any). The Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution shall accrue and be payable on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each calendar year (each such date, a “Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date”) and upon a liquidation, redemption or other payment in respect of Series A Preferred Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.01(b), Section 10.05, Section 10.06 or Section 13.03(c), respectively. Any Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution that is not paid under this Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a)(i) on or prior to a Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date shall be included in the calculation of the Series A Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield that accrues in each compounding period thereafter until such Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution is paid in full. Any Distribution made pursuant to this Section 7.02(a) shall be treated as a Distribution under Section 7.03(a)(i).

(b)           Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution. From and after the date of issuance of any Series B Preferred Unit, a quarterly Distribution shall be payable, whether or not declared by the Board, on each Series B Preferred Unit (a “Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution”) in an amount equal to the Series B Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield on such Series B Preferred Unit as of the date of such quarterly Distribution. The holders of Series B Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive the Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution in preference to any dividend or Distribution made on any Junior Units and pari passu with the Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution and the Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution (if any). The Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution shall accrue and be payable on each Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date and upon a liquidation, redemption or other payment in respect of Series B Preferred Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.01(b), Section 10.05 Section 10.06 or Section 13.03(c), respectively. Any Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution that is not paid under this Section 7.02(b) or Section 7.03(a)(i) on or prior to a Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date shall be included in the calculation of the Series B Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield that accrues in each compounding period thereafter until such Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution is paid in full. Any Distribution made pursuant to this Section 7.02(b) shall be treated as a Distribution under Section 7.03(a)(i).

(c)           Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution. From and after the date of issuance of any Series N Preferred Unit, a quarterly Distribution shall be payable, whether or not declared by the Board, on each Series N Preferred Unit (a “Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution”, and together with Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distributions and Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distributions, “Preferred Unit Quarterly Distributions”) in an amount equal to the Series N Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield on such Series N Preferred Unit as of the date of such quarterly Distribution. The holders of Series N Preferred Units shall be entitled to receive the Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution in preference to any dividend or Distribution made on any Junior Units and pari passu with the Series A Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution and the Series B Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution. The Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution shall accrue and be payable on each Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date and upon a liquidation, redemption or other payment in respect of Series N Preferred Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.01(b), Section 10.05 Section 10.06 or Section 13.03(c), respectively. Any Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution that is not paid under this Section 7.02(c) or Section 7.03(a)(i) on or prior to a Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date shall be included in the calculation of the Series N Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield that accrues in each compounding period thereafter until such Series N Preferred Unit Quarterly Distribution is paid in full. Any Distribution made pursuant to this Section 7.02(c) shall be treated as a Distribution under Section 7.03(a)(i).

(d)           Priority of Preferred Quarterly Distributions. If, on any Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date, the Company pays some but less than all Preferred Unit Quarterly Distributions that have accrued and accumulated as of such Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date, then such payment shall be made to the holders of Preferred Units entitled thereto, pro rata in proportion to their respective Unpaid Preferred Yields on all such Preferred Units as of such Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date, and otherwise on a pari passu basis. All accrued and accumulated Preferred Unit Quarterly Distributions shall be prior and in preference to any Distribution on any Junior Units and shall be fully declared and paid before any Distributions are declared and paid, or any other Distributions, repurchases or redemptions are made, on any Junior Units, provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the Company’s rights to effect Distributions, repurchases or redemptions to the extent permitted under Section 8.06.

Section 7.03          Priority of Distributions.

(a)         After making all Distributions required under Section 7.01(b), and all Distributions required for a given Fiscal Year under Section 7.02 and Section 7.04, and subject to the priority applicable to Distributions of proceeds in connection with a liquidation of the Company pursuant to Section 13.03(c), if applicable, all Distributions determined or required to be made by the Board pursuant to Section 7.01 shall be made in the following manner:

(i)           First, to the holders of Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units and Series N Preferred Units, pro rata in proportion to their respective Unpaid Preferred Yields on all such Preferred Units and otherwise on a pari passu basis, until the cumulative Distributions under this Section 7.03(a)(i) (including cumulative Distributions deemed to have been made under this Section 7.03(a)(i) pursuant to Section 7.02(a), Section 7.02(b) and Section 7.02(c)) equal the sum of (A) the Series A Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield in respect of all Series A Preferred Units as of the time of such Distribution, (B) the Series B Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield in respect of all Series B Preferred Units as of the time of such Distribution and (C) the Series N Preferred Unit Unpaid Yield in respect of all Series N Preferred Units as of the time of such Distribution;

(ii)          Second, to the holders of Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units and Series N Preferred Units, pro rata in proportion to their respective Preferred Unit Unreturned Capital and otherwise on a pari passu basis, until the cumulative Distributions under this Section 7.03(a)(ii) equals the sum of (A) the aggregate Capital Contributions in respect of all Series A Preferred Units, (B) the aggregate Capital Contributions in respect of all Series B Preferred Units, and (C) the aggregate Capital Contributions in respect of all Series N Preferred Units; and

(iii)          Third, any remaining amounts to the Members holding Common Units, pro rata in proportion to their holdings of Common Units.

(b)           Holders of Warrants shall not be entitled to receive any payment or other amount in respect of any Distribution unless and until the exercise of such Warrants and the receipt of Common Units issued upon such exercise.

Section 7.04         Tax Advances.

(a)           Subject to any restrictions in any of the Company’s and/or any Company Subsidiary’s then applicable debt-financing arrangements and subject to the Board’s sole discretion to retain any other amounts necessary to satisfy the Company’s and/or the Company Subsidiaries’ obligations, at least five Business Days before each date prescribed by the Code for a calendar-year corporation to pay quarterly installments of estimated tax, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Distribute cash to each Member in proportion to and to the extent of such Member’s Quarterly Estimated Tax Amount for the applicable calendar quarter (each such Distribution, a “Tax Advance”).

(b)           If, at any time after the final Quarterly Estimated Tax Amount has been Distributed pursuant to Section 7.04(a) with respect to any Fiscal Year, the aggregate Tax Advances to any Member with respect to such Fiscal Year are less than such Member’s Tax Amount for such Fiscal Year (a “Shortfall Amount”), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Distribute cash in proportion to and to the extent of each Member’s Shortfall Amount. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Distribute Shortfall Amounts with respect to a Fiscal Year before the 75th day of the next succeeding Fiscal Year; provided, that if the Company has made Distributions other than pursuant to this Section 7.04, the Board may apply such Distributions to reduce any Shortfall Amount.

(c)           If the aggregate Tax Advances made to any Member pursuant to this Section 7.04 for any Fiscal Year exceed such Member’s Tax Amount (an “Excess Amount”), such Excess Amount shall reduce subsequent Tax Advances that would be made to such Member pursuant to this Section 7.04, except to the extent taken into account as an advance pursuant to Section 7.04(d).

(d)          Any Distributions made pursuant to this Section 7.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as advances on Distributions pursuant to Section 7.03 and shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the amount otherwise Distributable to such Member pursuant to Section 7.03.

Section 7.05         Tax Withholding; Withholding Advances.

(a)           Tax Withholding. If requested by the Board, each Member shall, if able to do so, deliver to the Board:

(i)           an affidavit in form satisfactory to the Board that the applicable Member (or its members or partners, as the case may be) is not subject to withholding under the provisions of any federal, state, local, foreign or other Applicable Law;

(ii)           any certificate that the Board may reasonably request with respect to any such laws; and/or

(iii)          any other form or instrument reasonably requested by the Board relating to any Member’s status under such law.

If a Member fails or is unable to deliver to the Board the affidavit described in Section 7.05(a)(i), the Board may withhold amounts from such Member in accordance with Section 7.05(b).

(b)         Withholding Advances. The Company is hereby authorized at all times to make payments (“Withholding Advances”) with respect to each Member in amounts required to discharge any obligation of the Company (as determined by the Tax Matters Representative based on the advice of legal or tax counsel to the Company) to withhold or make payments to any federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority (a “Taxing Authority”) with respect to any Distribution or allocation by the Company of income or gain to such Member (including payments made pursuant to Code Section 6225 and allocable to a Member as determined by the Tax Matters Representative in its sole discretion) and to withhold the same from Distributions to such Member. Any funds withheld from a Distribution by reason of this Section 7.05(b) shall nonetheless be deemed Distributed to the Member in question for all purposes under this Agreement and shall be charged against the Member’s Capital Account.

(c)          Repayment of Withholding Advances. Any Withholding Advance made by the Company to a Taxing Authority on behalf of a Member and not simultaneously withheld from a Distribution to that Member shall, with interest thereon accruing from the date of payment at a rate equal to the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal on the date of payment plus two percent (2.0%) per year (the “Company Interest Rate”):

(i)          be promptly repaid to the Company by the Member on whose behalf the Withholding Advance was made (which repayment by the Member shall not constitute a Capital Contribution, but shall credit the Member’s Capital Account if the Board shall have initially charged the amount of the Withholding Advance to the Capital Account); or

(ii)           with the consent of the Board, be repaid by reducing the amount of the next succeeding Distribution or Distributions to be made to such Member (which reduction amount shall be deemed to have been Distributed to the Member, but which shall not further reduce the Member’s Capital Account if the Board shall have initially charged the amount of the Withholding Advance to the Capital Account).

Interest shall cease to accrue from the time the Member on whose behalf the Withholding Advance was made repays such Withholding Advance (and all accrued interest) by either method of repayment described above.

(d)         Indemnification. Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from and against any liability with respect to taxes, interest or penalties which may be asserted by reason of the Company’s failure to deduct and withhold tax on amounts Distributable or allocable to such Member. The provisions of this Section 7.05(d) and the obligations of a Member pursuant to Section 7.05(c) shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company and the withdrawal of such Member from the Company or Transfer of its Units or Warrants. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 7.05, including bringing a lawsuit to collect repayment with interest of any Withholding Advances.

(e)          Over-withholding. Neither the Company nor the Board shall be liable for any excess taxes withheld in respect of any Distribution or allocation of income or gain to a Member. In the event of an over-withholding, a Member’s sole recourse shall be to apply for a refund from the appropriate Taxing Authority.

Section 7.06          Distributions in Kind.

(a)           Prior to the final Distribution of assets of the Company in connection with the dissolution and winding up of the Company, the Company may distribute only cash or Marketable Securities to a Member. In the event that a Distribution of Marketable Securities or assets is made to any Member, subject to Section 12.04(d), such Marketable Securities or assets shall be deemed to have been sold at fair market value reasonably determined by the Board (i) in the case of Marketable Securities, using the average of the closing prices recorded on the market where such Marketable Securities are traded over the five (5) trading days preceding the date of Distribution and the five (5) trading days following the date of distribution, and (ii) in the case of other assets, considering all pertinent factors and information. In any non-cash Distribution, the securities or assets so Distributed will be Distributed among the Members in the same proportion and priority as cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such securities or assets would be Distributed among the Members pursuant to Section 7.03.

(b)            Any Distribution of securities shall be subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Board determines are required or advisable to ensure compliance with Applicable Law. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Board may require that Members execute and deliver such documents as the Board may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure compliance with all federal and state securities laws that apply to such Distribution and any further Transfer of the Distributed securities and may appropriately legend the certificates that represent such securities to reflect any restriction on Transfer with respect to such laws.

ARTICLE VIII
Management

Section 8.01          Establishment of the Board. A board of managers of the Company (the “Board”) is hereby established and shall be comprised of natural persons (each such person, a “Manager”) appointed in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.02. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed, operated and controlled by or under the direction of the Board and the Board shall have, and is hereby granted, the full and complete power, authority and discretion for, on behalf of and in the name of the Company, to take such actions as it may in its sole discretion deem necessary or advisable to carry out any and all of the objectives and purposes of the Company, subject only to the terms of this Agreement and the Delaware Act.

Section 8.02          Board Composition; Vacancies.

(a)            The Company and each Member shall take such actions as may be required to ensure that the number of Managers constituting the Board is at all times five and that the Board is comprised of:

(i)             if ATN Unitholders collectively hold (A) 85% or more of the Common Units held by all ATN Unitholders immediately following the Effective Time (as adjusted for any Unit splits, extraordinary Unit dividends, recapitalizations or similar transactions with respect to the Common Units); and (B) more Common Units than any other Unitholder or group of Affiliated Unitholders, then (C) for as long as ATN Unitholders collectively hold not less than 45% of issued and outstanding Common Units, three Managers designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders, including one Manager designated as Chairperson in accordance with Section 8.09, who shall initially be Brad Martin (Chairperson), Michael Prior and Justin Benincasa;

(ii)            if (A) ATN Unitholders collectively hold less than 85% of the Common Units held by all ATN Unitholders immediately following the Effective Time (as adjusted for any Unit splits, extraordinary Unit dividends, recapitalizations or similar transactions with respect to the Common Units); or (B) ATN Unitholders do not collectively hold more Common Units than any other Unitholder or group of Affiliated Unitholders, then (C) for as long as ATN Unitholders collectively hold (I) 40% or more and less than 45% of the issued and outstanding Common Units, two Managers designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders or (II) 25% or more and less than 40% of the issued and outstanding Common Units, one Manager designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders (any such Manager designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders under Section 8.02(a)(i) or this Section 8.02(a)(ii), an “ATN Manager”);

(iii)          for as long as F3C Unitholders collectively hold (A) 40% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units, two Managers designated by the F3C Majority Common Holders, who shall initially be Brian Block and Aaron Blazar; or (B) 25% or more and less than 40% of the issued and outstanding Common Units, one Manager designated by the F3C Majority Common Holders (each an “F3C Manager”); and

(iv)           to the extent (if at all) the ATN Majority Common Holders and F3C Majority Common Holders are no longer entitled to designate all members of the Board under the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), (A) Managers shall be designated by the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Units and (B) upon any such designation of a Manager as successor to a Manager previously designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders or F3C Majority Common Holders, such previously designated Manager shall be deemed to have automatically resigned without any further action on the part of the ATN Majority Common Holders, F3C Majority Common Holders or other Managers.

(b)           For as long as F3C Unitholders hold any Units, the holders of a majority of Units held by the F3C Unitholders shall be entitled to designate one non-voting Board observer (the “F3C Observer”). For as long as ATN Unitholders hold any Units, the holders of a majority of Units held by the ATN Unitholders shall be entitled to designate one non-voting Board observer (the “ATN Observer”, and alternatively with the F3C Observer, an “Observer”). An Observer shall not be a Manager or have any right to vote or consent on any matter before the Board but shall be entitled to attend Board meetings and to receive copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials at the same time and in the same manner as such materials are delivered to Managers, provided that the Company may exclude an Observer from access to any such materials or from any Board meeting or portion thereof if the Board concludes that such exclusion is necessary (i) to preserve attorney-client or work product privilege, or (ii) to avoid a conflict of interest or disclosure that is restricted by any agreement or duty to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party or otherwise bound.

(c)            At all times, the size and composition of any board of directors or board of managers (or similar body vested with management or oversight of management, however characterized) of Parent, ALSK and any other Company Subsidiary shall be the same as that of the Board, including with respect to any Observer designated under Section 8.02(b) and with respect to the Chairperson designated under Section 8.09. Without limiting the foregoing, the quorum, removal rights, meeting procedures, Observer rights and voting requirements set forth in this ARTICLE VIII with respect to the Board shall apply mutatis mutandis to Company Subsidiaries and the boards of directors, boards of managers or similar governing bodies of such Company Subsidiaries, and any committee of any such board of directors, board of managers or similar governing body.

(d)           If a vacancy is created on the Board at any time due to the death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal of a Manager, the Member or group of Members entitled to designate such Manager in accordance with Section 8.02(a) (or if no Member or group of Members is entitled to designate such Manager, the Members holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Units) shall have the right to designate a person to fill such vacancy by giving written notice of such designation to the Company and Members not responsible for such notice, including such information about the designee as reasonably requested by the Company or such Members, whereupon the Company and each Member shall take such actions as may be required to ensure the prompt election or appointment of such designee to fill such vacancy on the Board. If the Member or group of Members, as the case may be, fail to so designate in writing a person to fill a vacant Manager position and such failure continues for more than 30 days after notice from the Company to the Member or group of Members responsible for the failure, then the vacant position shall be filled by a person designated by the other Manager or Managers designated by such Member or group of Members that are then in office; provided that such person shall be removed from such position if the Member or group of Members that originally failed to designate a person for such position so direct and simultaneously designate a new Manager for such position.

(e)            The Board shall maintain a schedule of all Managers with their respective mailing addresses (the “Managers Schedule”) and shall update the Managers Schedule upon the removal or replacement of any Manager in accordance with this Section 8.02 or Section 8.03. A copy of the Managers Schedule as of the execution of this Agreement is attached hereto as Schedule B.

Section 8.03          Removal; Resignation.

(a)            A Manager may be removed or replaced at any time from the Board, with or without cause, upon the written request of the Member or group of Members entitled to designate such Manager in accordance with Section 8.02(a). Members holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Common Units may remove all or any lesser number of Managers with or without cause; provided, that, to the extent a Member or group of Members has the right to designate a Manager pursuant to Section 8.02(a), the affirmative vote of such Member or group of Members shall be required to remove any such Manager.

(b)            A Manager may resign at any time from the Board by delivering his or her written resignation to the Board. Any such resignation shall be effective upon receipt thereof unless it is specified to be effective at some other time or upon the occurrence of some other event. The Board’s acceptance of a resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 8.04          Meetings.

(a)           Generally. Regular meetings of the Board shall be held on at least a quarterly basis on such dates and at such times as shall be determined by the Board. Special meetings of the Board shall be held on the call of any Manager. Meetings of the Board may be held either in person or by means of telephone or video conference or other communications device that permits all Managers participating in the meeting to hear each other, at the offices of the Company or such other place (either within or outside the State of Delaware) as may be determined from time to time by the Board.

(b)            Notices.

(i)             The Chairperson shall provide (or cause an Officer of the Company to provide) written notice of each regular meeting of the Board or any Committee stating the place, date and time of the meeting and a proposed agenda of the business to be transacted thereat, together with any relevant supporting material sufficient to inform the Managers of such business, to each Manager by Electronic Transmission reasonably in advance of the meeting and generally no less than seven days before the date of such meeting; provided, however, that the business to be transacted at any regular meeting shall not be limited to the matters set forth on any agenda circulated prior to the meeting, and the failure to provide relevant supporting materials no less than seven days before the meeting shall not affect the validity of any otherwise valid action taken at the meeting. If the Board agrees and circulates to all Managers a schedule stating the place, date and time of regular meetings of the Board, such schedule shall be deemed to satisfy the notice requirement for any meeting included therein. Any Manager may propose to add an item to the agenda of a regular meeting by providing written notice thereof to the Chairperson at least three days before the meeting, together with any relevant supporting material. The Chairperson shall update the proposed agenda and meeting materials accordingly to the extent practicable before the meeting.

(ii)            A Manager calling a special meeting shall provide written notice of the special meeting of the Board or any Committee stating the place, date and time of the meeting and a proposed agenda of the business to be transacted thereat, together with any relevant supporting material sufficient to inform the Managers of such business, to each Manager by Electronic Transmission no less than seven days before the date of such meeting; provided that, in the case of a special meeting, the Chairperson or the Manager requesting the meeting may reduce the advance notice period to not less than 48 hours if he or she determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, that it is necessary and in the best interests of the Company for the Board to take action within a time period of less than seven days. Each Manager shall, promptly following his or her receipt of such proposed agenda, provide the Chairperson with notice of any additional agenda items he or she desires to be considered at such meeting, together with any relevant supporting material sufficient to inform the other Managers of such additional matters. The Chairperson shall update the proposed agenda and meeting materials accordingly to the extent practicable before the meeting. The business to be transacted at any special meeting shall, unless otherwise agreed unanimously by the Managers, be limited to the matters set forth on the first proposed agenda for the meeting.

(c)          Attendance and Waiver of Notice. Notice of a meeting may be waived by any Manager before, during or after the meeting. Attendance of a Manager at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Manager attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and raises such objection promptly at the start of the meeting.

(d)          Meeting Records. Meetings held, matters considered and actions taken by the Board and each Committee shall be recorded in minutes prepared by the Chairperson (or such other Person as may be designated by the Board from time to time), which shall state the date, time, place of, and attendance of Managers and others at, meetings, and the effective date of any written consent in lieu of a meeting. The Chairperson (or such other Person as may be designated by the Board) shall circulate a draft of the minutes of each meeting to the Managers promptly following, and generally within 14 days following the date of the meeting, provided that the failure to circulate draft minutes by such deadline shall not detract from the validity of minutes otherwise duly adopted by the Board . The minutes shall be maintained in suitable hard copy or electronic records kept by the Company and accessible by each Manager.

Section 8.05          Quorum; Manner of Acting.

(a)            Quorum. A majority of the Managers serving on the Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business of the Board; provided that, for as long as the F3C Majority Common Holders are entitled to designate (and have designated) at least one F3C Manager, the presence of at least one F3C Manager at any meeting of the Board shall be necessary to constitute a quorum. At all times when the Board is conducting business at a meeting of the Board, a quorum of the Board must be present at such meeting. If a quorum is not present at any meeting of the Board, the Managers present may adjourn such meeting (the “Suspended Meeting”), in which event they shall promptly give notice to the Managers of when it shall be reconvened (the “Reconvened Meeting”), which notice shall specify in writing that the Board has invoked the procedures with respect to the Reconvened Meeting set forth in the following sentence. If such notice is given and the Reconvened Meeting is held at least 24 hours after the Suspended Meeting, then the presence of at least one F3C Manager shall not be required in order for a quorum to be present at the Reconvened Meeting; provided that, for as long as the F3C Majority Common Holders are entitled to designate (and have designated) at least one F3C Manager, the only business that may be conducted at the Reconvened Meeting shall be business that could have been conducted at the Suspended Meeting if a quorum had been present.

(b)          Participation. Any Manager may participate in a meeting of the Board by means of telephone or video conference or other communications device that permits all Managers participating in the meeting to hear each other and participation in a meeting by such means shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. A Manager may vote or be present at a meeting either in person or by proxy and such proxy may be granted in writing, by means of Electronic Transmission, or as otherwise permitted by Applicable Law.

(c)           Binding Act. Each Manager shall have one vote on all matters submitted to the Board or any committee thereof. With respect to any matter before the Board, the act of a majority of the Managers constituting a quorum shall be the act of the Board.

Section 8.06          Approval Requirements.

(B)          without the prior approval of the F3C Majority Preferred Holders if such approval is not otherwise required by this Agreement or the Delaware Act and the Company has elected to redeem all of the Preferred Units then held by the F3C Unitholders in accordance with this Agreement and deposited into an escrow or similar arrangement cash in an amount necessary to pay the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price therefor in full.

(iv)          For the avoidance of doubt, Preferred Units held by Transferees of such Units who were not Permitted Transferees of the applicable Transferor immediately before the consummation of the corresponding Transfer to such Transferees, shall not be counted when determining whether the applicable ownership threshold set forth in Section 8.06(a)(i) or Section 8.06(a)(ii) has been satisfied.

(b)           Certain Common Unitholder Approvals. Without limiting any other requirement under this Agreement or the Delaware Act for approval of Members or of the Board, (x) for as long as ATN Unitholders collectively hold 25% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units, except with the prior written approval of ATN, and (y) for as long as F3C Unitholders collectively hold 25% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units, except with the prior written approval of the F3C Common SPV, the Company and each Member shall not take (and shall not authorize, approve or permit to be taken by any Company Subsidiary or otherwise) any of the following actions, directly or indirectly, including by amendment, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise:

(i)             increase or decrease the size of the Board (or of the board of directors or equivalent body of any Company Subsidiary) or change the number of votes or voting power entitled to be cast or exercised by any Manager on any matter before the Board or such other board of directors or equivalent body;

(iii)           increase the number of Equity Interests of Parent available for awards under the 2021 Stock Option Plan, or any other equity incentive plan, to a number that would equate to more than 12% of the Common Units of the Company outstanding after giving effect to the Common Unit Subscription Agreement and the issuance of the Warrants (on a Fully Diluted Basis and as proportionately adjusted for unit splits, unit dividends and similar actions with the respect to the Common Units);

(iv)           approve or effect any voluntary Bankruptcy, foreclosure, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or similar transaction; or

(v)            take any action described in clause (B), (C), (F) or (H) of Section 8.06(a)(i).

(c)           Certain Board Approvals. For as long as (x) ATN Unitholders collectively hold 40% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units or (y) F3C Unitholders collectively hold 40% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Units, then, without the prior approval of at least four Managers, the Company shall not (and shall not authorize or permit any Company Subsidiary to), and each Member shall not authorize or permit the Company or any Company Subsidiary to:

(i)             offer to hire or hire, or terminate the employment of, ALSK’s chief executive officer;

(ii)           adopt any annual budget that provides for capital expenditures in excess of 30% of the Company’s total consolidated revenues over the 12 completed calendar months immediately preceding the adoption of such budget, as determined in accordance with GAAP (excluding any capital expenditures eligible for reimbursement by any customer of the Company or Company Subsidiary or by a Governmental Authority, such as a Special Project (as defined in the Merger Agreement));

(iii)           adopt any equity (or equity-linked) compensation plan other than the 2021 Stock Option Plan; materially amend, terminate or repeal any equity (or equity-linked) compensation plan (including the 2021 Stock Option Plan); grant or issue any Equity Interests as incentive compensation under any equity (or equity-linked) compensation plan other than the 2021 Stock Option Plan; or materially amend or waive the terms of any option or other grant or award to senior management under the 2021 Stock Option Plan or any other equity (or equity-linked) compensation plan; or

(iv)          acquire or dispose of Equity Interests or assets of any Person if the value of Equity Interests and assets subject to such acquisition or disposition (whether effectuated in one transaction or a series of related transactions) exceeds 20% of total consolidated assets or consolidated operating income of the Company, each as determined in accordance with GAAP based on the Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements.

(d)           Related Party Transactions. For as long as any F3C Unitholder holds any Units, Warrants or other Unit Equivalents, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company and each Member shall not (and shall not authorize, approve or permit any Company Subsidiary to) enter into any Related-Party Agreements other than the Management Services Agreement or the Shared Services Agreement, or, amend, waive, supplement or terminate (other than pursuant to its terms) any Related-Party Agreement; provided that the Company or a Company Subsidiary may enter into a Related-Party Agreement that is approved by the Board and that the Board has determined in good faith is (x) reasonably required by the Company or a Company Subsidiary and (y) on terms no less favorable to the Company or such Company Subsidiary than a comparable transaction entered into with an unaffiliated third party on an arm’s-length basis.

Section 8.07          Action By Written Consent. Any action of the Board (or any committee of the Board) may be taken without a meeting if either (a) a written consent is given by the requisite number and type (if applicable) of Managers whose approval would be required to approve such action at a duly called and held meeting of the Board (or such committee) where a quorum was present; provided, that prior written notice of such action is provided to all Managers (or members of such committee, if applicable) at least one day before such action is taken; or (b) a written consent is given by all of the Managers on the Board (or committee). Such written consent shall have the same force and effect as a vote at a meeting where a quorum was present and may be stated as such in any document or instrument filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware.

Section 8.08          Compensation; No Employment.

(a)           Each Manager shall be reimbursed for his or her reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the performance of his or her duties as a Manager, pursuant to such policies from time to time established by the Board. Nothing contained in this Section 8.08 shall be construed to preclude any Manager from serving the Company or its Subsidiaries in any other capacity and receiving reasonable compensation for such services.

(b)           This Agreement does not, and is not intended to, confer upon any Manager any rights with respect to continued employment by the Company or its Subsidiaries and nothing herein should be construed to have created any employment agreement with any Manager.

Section 8.09         Chairperson. One Manager shall be designated in accordance with this Section 8.09 to serve as chairperson of the Board (the “Chairperson”). The Chairperson shall preside at all meetings of the Board at which he or she is present, subject to the ultimate authority of the Board to appoint an alternate presiding chairperson (who shall, unless otherwise determined by unanimous agreement of the Managers, be a Manager appointed by the same Unitholders as the then-serving Chairperson) at any meeting. For as long as the ATN Majority Common Holders are entitled to designate a majority of the Managers, an ATN Manager designated by the ATN Majority Common Holders (or the ATN Managers) shall be the Chairperson. At all other times, a Manager designated by the holders of at least a majority of the Common Units then outstanding shall be the Chairperson. A Manager shall not be considered to be an officer of the Company solely by virtue of holding the position of Chairperson and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not have any rights or powers different from any other Manager other than with respect to any procedural matters to the extent delegated by the Board or as expressly set forth in this Agreement; provided, that any procedural rights or powers granted to the Chairperson shall not be in derogation of any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to any Manager or any approval or consent rights of any Unitholder or Member granted under this Agreement or provided under the Delaware Act. The Chairperson may not cut off debate on any matter being considered by the Board and shall, at the request of any Manager, call for a vote on any item under consideration by the Board.

Section 8.10          Committees.

(a)            Establishment. The Board may, by resolution, designate from among the Managers one or more committees, each of which shall be comprised of one or more Managers; provided, that in no event may the Board designate any committee with all of the authority of the Board. Subject to the immediately preceding proviso, any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution forming such committee, shall have and may exercise the authority of the Board, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.10(b). As much as possible in light of its size, a committee shall at all times be comprised of ATN Managers and F3C Managers in the same proportions reflected in the composition of the Board. The Board may dissolve any committee or remove any member of a committee at any time.

(b)            Limitation of Authority. No committee of the Board shall have the authority of the Board in reference to:

(i)            authorizing or making Distributions to the Members;

(ii)           authorizing the issuance of Units;

(iii)          approving a plan of merger or sale of the Company;

(iv)          recommending to the Members a voluntary dissolution of the Company or a revocation thereof;

(v)           filling vacancies in the Board; or

(vi)        altering or repealing any resolution of the Board that by its terms does not provide that it shall be so amendable or repealable.

Section 8.11          Officers. The Board may appoint individuals as officers of the Company (the “Officers”) as it deems necessary or desirable to carry on the business of the Company and the Board may delegate to such Officers such power and authority as the Board deems advisable. An Officer need not be a Member or Manager. Any person may hold two or more offices of the Company. Each Officer shall hold office until his or her successor is designated by the Board or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Any Officer may resign at any time upon written notice to the Board. Any Officer may be removed by the Board (acting by majority vote of all Managers on the Board other than the Officer being considered for removal, if applicable) with or without cause at any time. A vacancy in any office occurring because of death, resignation, removal or otherwise may, but need not, be filled by the Board.

Section 8.12          No Personal Liability. Except as otherwise provided in the Delaware Act, by Applicable Law or expressly in this Agreement, no Manager will be obligated personally for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company or of any Company Subsidiaries, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, solely by reason of being a Manager.

ARTICLE IX
Pre-emptive Rights

Section 9.01          Pre-Emptive Right.

(a)          Issuance of New Securities. The Company hereby grants to each of ATN, the F3C Investors and their respective Permitted Transferees (each, a “Pre-Emptive Member”) the right to purchase its Applicable Pro Rata Portion of any New Securities that the Company or any Company Subsidiary may from time to time propose to issue or sell to any Person between the date hereof and the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering.

(b)            Definition of New Securities. As used herein:

(i)          the term “New Preferred Securities” shall mean any authorized but unissued Preferred Units, any Preferred Unit Equivalents and any similar Equity Interests of any Company Subsidiary;

(ii)          the term “New Common Securities” shall mean any authorized but unissued Common Units, any Common Unit Equivalents and any similar Equity Interests of any Company Subsidiary; and

(iii)          the term “New Securities” shall mean New Preferred Securities and New Common Securities, as applicable;

provided, that neither the term “New Preferred Securities” nor the term “New Common Securities” shall include (x) Units or Unit Equivalents issued or sold by the Company in connection with: (A) the Additional Equity Commitment Letters; (B) the conversion or exchange of any securities of the Company outstanding as of the date of this Agreement into Units, or the issuance or exercise of the Warrants; (C) Units or Unit Equivalents issued as consideration for assets, properties or businesses acquired by the Company or any Company Subsidiary; (D) any merger, consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or any Company Subsidiary; (E) the commencement of any Public Offering, or any transaction or series of related transactions involving a Change of Control; (F) any subdivision of Units (by a split of Units or otherwise), payment of Distributions or any similar recapitalization, but only if such subdivision, Distribution or similar recapitalization is effected on a pro rata basis with respect to each class or series of Units subject to such subdivision or similar recapitalization (or entitled to receive such Distribution); (G) any private placement of warrants to purchase Membership Interests to lenders or other institutional investors (excluding the Members) in any arm’s length transaction in which such lenders or investors provide debt financing to the Company or any Company Subsidiary, not exceeding, in the aggregate, more than 2.0% of the Common Units then outstanding on a Fully Diluted Basis, provided, that the exceptions set forth in this clause (x) shall apply only if the transaction involved has been approved by the Board and, to the extent required by Section 8.06, any group of Unitholders holding a class or series of Units, ATN Managers and F3C Managers, as applicable, and provided, further, that clauses (B), (C), (D), (E) and (G) of this clause (x) shall apply only to the extent that the Units or Unit Equivalents issued or sold are Junior Units (or Unit Equivalents of Junior Units); or (y) any Equity Interest of a Company Subsidiary issued and sold by any Company Subsidiary to the Company or another wholly owned Company Subsidiary.

(c)          Additional Issuance Notices. The Company shall give written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of any proposed issuance or sale described in Section 9.01(a) to the Pre-Emptive Members within 15 Business Days following any meeting of the Board at which any such issuance or sale is approved. The Issuance Notice shall, if applicable, be accompanied by a written offer from any prospective purchaser seeking to purchase New Securities (a “Prospective Purchaser”) and shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the proposed issuance or sale, including:

(i)            the number and description of the New Securities proposed to be issued and the percentage of the Company’s Units then outstanding on a Fully Diluted Basis (both in the aggregate and with respect to each class or series of Units proposed to be issued) that such issuance would represent;

(ii)            the proposed issuance date, which shall be at least 30 Business Days after the date of the Issuance Notice;

(iii)           the proposed purchase price per unit of the New Securities; and

(iv)          if the consideration to be paid by the Prospective Purchaser includes non-cash consideration, the Board’s good-faith determination of the Fair Market Value thereof.

The Issuance Notice shall also be accompanied by a current copy of the Members Schedule indicating the Pre-Emptive Members’ holdings of Preferred Units and Common Units in a manner that enables each Pre-Emptive Member to calculate its Preferred Pro Rata Portion of any New Preferred Securities and its Common Pro Rata Portion of any New Common Securities.

(d)           Exercise of Pre-emptive Rights. Each Pre-Emptive Member shall for a period of 20 Business Days following the receipt of an Issuance Notice (the “Exercise Period”) have the right to elect irrevocably to purchase all or any portion of its Preferred Pro Rata Portion of any New Preferred Securities and all or any portion of its Common Pro Rata Portion of any New Common Securities, as applicable, at the respective purchase prices set forth in the Issuance Notice by delivering a written notice to the Company (an “Acceptance Notice”) specifying the number of New Preferred Securities and/or New Common Securities it desires to purchase. If both New Preferred Securities and New Common Securities are offered in the Issuance Notice, the Pre-Emptive Members shall have the right to elect to purchase only New Preferred Securities or only New Common Securities. The delivery of an Acceptance Notice by a Pre-Emptive Member shall be a binding and irrevocable offer by such Member to purchase the New Securities described therein. The failure of a Pre-Emptive Member to deliver an Acceptance Notice by the end of the Exercise Period shall constitute a waiver of its rights under this Section 9.01 with respect to the purchase of such New Securities, but shall not affect its rights with respect to any future issuances or sales of New Securities.

(e)            Over-Allotment. No later than five Business Days following the expiration of the Exercise Period, the Company shall notify each Pre-Emptive Member in writing of the number of New Securities that each Pre-Emptive Member has agreed to purchase (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where such number is zero) (the “Over-Allotment Notice”). Each Pre-Emptive Member exercising its rights to purchase its Applicable Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities in full (an “Exercising Member”) shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any other Pre-Emptive Member has failed to exercise its right under this Section 9.01 to purchase its full Applicable Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities (each, a “Non-Exercising Member”), such Exercising Member may purchase its Applicable Pro Rata Portion of such Non-Exercising Member’s allotment by giving written notice to the Company within 10 Business Days of receipt of the Over-Allotment Notice (the “Over-Allotment Exercise Period”).

(f)         Sales to the Prospective Purchaser. Following the expiration of the Exercise Period and, if applicable, the Over-allotment Exercise Period, the Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of New Securities described in the Issuance Notice with respect to which Pre-Emptive Members declined to exercise the pre-emptive right set forth in this Section 9.01 on terms no less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Issuance Notice (except that the amount of New Securities to be issued or sold by the Company may be reduced); provided, that: (i) such issuance or sale is closed within 20 Business Days after the expiration of the Exercise Period and, if applicable, the Over-Allotment Exercise Period (subject to the extension of such 20 Business Day period for a reasonable time not to exceed 40 Business Days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any third-party approvals); and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, the price at which the New Securities are sold to the Prospective Purchaser is at least equal to or higher than the purchase price described in the Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not sold such New Securities within such time period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first again offering such securities to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 9.01.

(g)           Closing of the Issuance. The closing of any purchase by any Pre-Emptive Member shall be consummated concurrently with the consummation of the issuance or sale described in the Issuance Notice. Upon the issuance or sale of any New Securities in accordance with this Section 9.01, the Company shall deliver the New Securities free and clear of any liens (other than those arising hereunder and those attributable to the actions of the purchasers thereof) and the Company shall so represent and warrant to the purchasers thereof and further represent and warrant to such purchasers that such New Securities shall be, upon issuance thereof to the Exercising Members and after payment therefor, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company, in the discretion of the Board pursuant to Section 3.06(a), may deliver to each Exercising Member certificates evidencing the New Securities. Each Exercising Member shall deliver to the Company the purchase price for the New Securities purchased by it by certified or bank check or wire transfer of immediately available funds. Each party to the purchase and sale of New Securities shall take all such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the purchase and sale including, without limitation, entering into such additional agreements as may be necessary or appropriate.

(viii)        to any Disqualified Lender as defined in the Credit Agreement or any other Person reasonably determined by the Board to be a competitor of the Company or any Company Subsidiary.

provided, that a Transfer of any interest in any fund managed by F3C or by an Affiliate of F3C, or of any interest in the F3C Common SPV, shall be deemed not to be a Transfer of any Units or Unit Equivalents held by such fund or the F3C Common SPV, as long as, following any such Transfer described in this proviso, F3C or an Affiliate of F3C remains the general partner (or equivalent) of the Transferee fund or the manager (or equivalent) of the F3C Common SPV, as the case may be; or

(g)            Conditions of Sale.

Each Tag-Along Member shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Tag-Along Sale, including, without limitation, entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case, consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Selling Member, but subject to Section 10.04(g)(ii).

(i)             Expenses. The fees and expenses of the Selling Member incurred in connection with a Tag-Along Sale and for the benefit of all Tag-Along Members (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of a Selling Member for its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Tag-Along Members), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Proposed Transferee, shall be shared by the Selling Member and all the participating Tag-Along Members on a pro rata basis, based on the consideration received by each such Member; provided, that no Tag-Along Member shall be obligated to make any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the Tag-Along Sale.

The “Make-Whole Premium” on any Redeemed Preferred Unit means the aggregate amount that would accrue on the Base Amount from the Preferred Unit Redemption Date to the 36-month anniversary of the date hereof, assuming an annual yield equal to the yield on U.S. Treasury obligations having a maturity of 10 years (as in effect on the date of the applicable Redemption Notice), plus 50 basis points (0.5%), accruing daily and in arrears based on a 365-day year.

(b)            Procedures.

(i)            If the Company desires to exercise its redemption right pursuant to this Section 10.05, the Company shall deliver to each holder of affected Preferred Units a written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) specifying the number and series of Redeemed Preferred Units to be redeemed by the Company from such holder and the expected Preferred Unit Redemption Price therefor in accordance with Section 10.05(a), based on a reasonable expectation of the closing date of such redemption; provided that the Company may only deliver a Redemption Notice if (A) the Company has sufficient unrestricted cash on hand to consummate such redemption in full, (B) the redemption is permitted under Applicable Law, (C) the redemption is not restricted by any applicable Financing Document and (D) either (x) all outstanding Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units and Series N Preferred Units are being redeemed or (y) if less than all outstanding Series A Preferred Units, Series B Preferred Units and Series N Preferred Units are being redeemed, then they shall be redeemed from all holders of Preferred Units pro rata, in proportion to the respective Base Amounts of the Preferred Units held by such holders as of the date of redemption.

(ii)            The Preferred Unit Redemption Date shall take place no later than 90 days following the date of the Redemption Notice. The Company shall pay the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price for the Redeemed Preferred Units by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Company shall give each holder of Redeemed Preferred Units at least 10 days’ written notice of any Preferred Unit Redemption Date. No later than two Business Days before any Preferred Unit Redemption Date, each holder of Redeemed Preferred Units shall give the Company written notice of the account to which the Company shall wire the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price payable to such holder of Redeemed Preferred Units.

(iii)            Each holder of Redeemed Preferred Units shall, at the closing of any redemption consummated pursuant to this Section 10.05, represent and warrant to the Company, severally and not jointly, that:

(A)            such holder has full right, title and interest in and to the Redeemed Preferred Units held by such holder;

(C)            the Redeemed Preferred Units held by such holder are free and clear of any and all liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement and Transfer restrictions under Applicable Law.

(c)            Cooperation. Each holder of Redeemed Preferred Units shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate a redemption contemplated by this Section 10.05, including, without limitation, entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate.

(d)            Closing.

(e)            Insufficient Funds. If on any Preferred Unit Redemption Date, the assets of the Company legally available are insufficient to pay the full Preferred Unit Redemption Price for the total number of Redeemed Preferred Units elected to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 10.05, the Company shall (i) take all appropriate action reasonably within its means to maximize the assets legally available for paying the Preferred Unit Redemption Price for all such Redeemed Preferred Units; (ii) redeem out of all such assets legally available therefor on the applicable Preferred Unit Redemption Date the maximum possible number of Redeemed Preferred Units that it can redeem on such date, pro rata from holders of such Redeemed Preferred Units in proportion to the respective Preferred Unit Redemption Price due to each holder; and (iii) following the applicable Preferred Unit Redemption Date, at any time and from time to time when additional assets of the Company become legally available, the Company shall immediately use such assets to redeem the remaining Redeemed Preferred Units and pay the remaining balance of the aggregate applicable Preferred Unit Redemption Price.

(f)            Remedies. If on any Preferred Unit Redemption Date, all of the Redeemed Preferred Units elected to be redeemed pursuant to a Redemption Notice are not redeemed in full by the Company by paying the entire Preferred Unit Redemption Price, until such Redeemed Preferred Units are fully redeemed and the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price paid in full, (i) all of the unredeemed Redeemed Preferred Units shall remain outstanding and continue to have the rights, preferences, and privileges expressed herein, (ii) interest on the portion of the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price applicable to the unredeemed Redeemed Preferred Units shall accrue daily in arrears at a rate equal to the Company Interest Rate, compounded monthly, and (iii) the Company shall be prohibited from issuing another Redemption Notice until the aggregate Preferred Unit Redemption Price for each Redeemed Preferred Unit specified in a Redemption Notice, plus interest thereon pursuant to clause (ii), has been paid in full.

If ATN and F3C have not agreed on such Fair Market Value within fifteen (15) days of delivery of a Call Option Exercise Notice, then such Fair Market Value shall be determined by a valuation conducted in accordance with the definition of “Fair Market Value.” Upon the final determination of the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit under this Section 10.07(b)(iii), (A) the Company shall deliver to each holder of Covered Call Securities a written notice of such Fair Market Value and the final calculation of the Common Unit Call Price and (B) the Fair Market Value of Common Unit and, absent manifest error, the Common Unit Call Price specified in such notice shall be final and binding on all holders of Covered Call Securities.

(v)            Each holder of Covered Call Securities shall, at the closing of any purchase consummated pursuant to this Section 10.07, represent and warrant to the Company, severally and not jointly, that:

(A)            such holder has full right, title and interest in and to the Covered Call Securities held by such holder;

(B)            such holder has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to sell such Covered Call Securities as contemplated by this Section 10.07; and

Section 10.08       Common Unit Put Rights and Related Company Clean-Up Provisions.

(a)            Common Unit Put Right. At any time after the first to occur of (i) the seventh anniversary of the date hereof or (ii) a Public Offering (other than a Qualified Public Offering), (A) the F3C Majority Common Holders may, at their election, require the Company to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Common Units (including Common Units issued upon the exercise of Warrants), in-the-money Warrants and other Common Unit Equivalents, held by the F3C Unitholders and (B) the ATN Majority Common Holders may, at their election, require the Company to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Common Units (including Common Units issued upon the exercise of Warrants), in-the-money Warrants and other Common Unit Equivalents, held by the ATN Unitholders, in each case at a price and on the other terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10.08 (each a “Common Put Right”). The “Common Unit Put Price” means, for each Common Unit, in-the-money Warrant or Common Unit Equivalent (the “Covered Put Securities”), the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit (as finally determined pursuant to Section 10.08(b)(ii) or Section 10.08(b)(iii), as applicable) on the date of delivery of a Put Option Exercise Notice (as defined below) minus (in the case of in-the-money Warrants or other Common Unit Equivalents), the applicable exercise price or Fair Market Value of any other consideration required to be paid upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such in-the-money Warrant or Common Unit Equivalent. The F3C Majority Common Holders and/or the ATN Majority Common Holders are referred to as the “Initiating Unitholders”.

(b)            Procedures.

(i)            In order to exercise a Common Put Right, the Initiating Unitholders shall deliver to the Company a written notice, executed by all Initiating Unitholders (the “Put Option Exercise Notice”). Upon receipt of a Put Option Notice, all F3C Unitholders (in the case of a Put Option Notice delivered by the F3C Majority Common Holders) and/or all ATN Unitholders (in the case of a Put Option Exercise Notice delivered by the ATN Majority Common Holders) shall be deemed to have elected to sell all of their Covered Put Securities pursuant to this Section 10.08. Any Put Option Exercise Notice shall the number and type of Covered Put Securities to be sold to the Company in connection with the exercise of such Common Put Right and a reasonably detailed calculation of the Common Unit Put Price for each type of Covered Put Securities, and whether the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit specified in the Put Option Exercise Notice and used to calculate the Common Unit Put Price has been determined (x) by mutual agreement of ATN and F3C, (y) a valuation in accordance with the definition of “Fair Market Value”, or (z) by the Initiating Unitholders. The Company shall deliver a copy of any Put Option Exercise Notice to each holder of Common Units, Warrants and Common Unit Equivalents other than the Initiating Unitholders no later than two Business Days after receiving a Put Option Exercise Notice.

(ii)            If the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit specified in a Call Option Exercise Notice has been determined pursuant to clause (x) or (y) of Section 10.08(b)(i), then the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit and, absent manifest error, the Common Unit Put Price specified in the Put Option Exercise Notice shall be final and binding on all holders of Covered Put Securities.

(iii)            If the Fair Market Value of Common Unit specified in a Put Option Exercise notice has been determined pursuant to clause (z) of Section 10.08(b)(i), ATN and F3C shall attempt to mutually agree on such Fair Market Value as soon as possible following delivery of a Put Option Exercise Notice. If ATN and F3C have not agreed on such Fair Market Value within fifteen (15) days of delivery of a Put Option Exercise Notice, then such Fair Market Value shall be determined by a valuation conducted in accordance with the definition of “Fair Market Value.” Upon the final determination of the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit under this Section 10.08(b)(iii), (A) the Company shall deliver to each holder of Covered Put Securities specified in a Put Exercise Notice a written notice of such Fair Market Value and the final calculation of the Common Unit Put Price for such Covered Put Securities and (B) the Fair Market Value of Common Unit and, absent manifest error, the Common Unit Put Price specified in such notice shall be final and binding on all holders of Covered Put Securities specified in such Put Option Exercise Notice.

(iv)            The closing of any repurchase of Covered Put Securities pursuant to this Section 10.08 shall take place no later than 90 days following the date of delivery of the Put Option Exercise Notice or, if later, 20 Business Days following the date of final determination of the Common Unit Put Price under Section 10.08(b)(iii). The Company shall pay the Common Unit Put Price for the Covered Put Securities by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Company shall give each holder of Covered Put Securities specified in a Put Option Exercise Notice at least five Business Days’ written notice of the date of closing of any repurchase of Covered Securities under this Section 10.08 (each a “Put Option Closing Date”). No later than two Business Days before any Put Option Closing Date, each holder of Covered Put Securities specified in a Put Option Exercise Notice shall give the Company written notice of the account to which the Company shall wire the aggregate Common Unit Put Price payable to such holder of Covered Put Securities.

(v)            Each holder of Covered Put Securities specified in a Put Option Exercise Notice shall, at the closing of any purchase consummated pursuant to this Section 10.08, represent and warrant to the Company, severally and not jointly, that:

(A)            such holder has full right, title and interest in and to the Covered Put Securities held by such holder;

(B)            such holder has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to sell such Covered Put Securities as contemplated by this Section 10.08; and

(C)            the Covered Put Securities held by such holder are free and clear of any and all liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement and Transfer restrictions under Applicable Law.

(c)            Cooperation. Each holder of Covered Put Securities shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the sale contemplated by this Section 10.08, including, without limitation, entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate.

(d)            Closing. At the closing of any sale and purchase pursuant to this Section 10.08, the holders of Covered Put Securities shall deliver to the Company a certificate or certificates representing the Covered Put Securities to be sold (if any), accompanied by evidence of transfer and all necessary transfer taxes paid and stamps affixed, if necessary, against receipt of the aggregate Common Unit Put Price payable to such holder.

(e)            Insufficient Funds. If on any Put Option Closing Date, the assets of the Company legally available are insufficient to pay the full Common Unit Put Price for the total number of Covered Put Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Section 10.08, the Company shall (i) take all appropriate action reasonably within its means to maximize the assets legally available for paying the Common Unit Put Price for all such Covered Put Securities, (ii) redeem out of all such assets legally available therefor on the applicable Put Option Closing Date the maximum possible number of Covered Put Securities that it can redeem on such date, pro rata among the holders of such Covered Put Securities based on their respective aggregate Common Unit Put Prices, and (iii) following the applicable Put Option Closing Date, at any time and from time to time when additional assets of the Company become legally available to redeem the remaining Covered Put Securities, the Company shall immediately use such assets to pay the remaining balance of the aggregate applicable Common Unit Put Prices.

(f)            Remedies. If on any Put Option Closing Date, all of the Covered Put Securities to be purchased pursuant to a Put Option Exercise Notice are not purchased in full by the Company by paying the entire aggregate Common Unit Put Price, until all of such Covered Put Securities are fully redeemed and the aggregate Common Unit Put Price paid in full, (i) all of the unpurchased Covered Put Securities shall remain outstanding and continue to have the rights, preferences, and privileges expressed herein, in the Warrant Agreements, or in any other instrument, document or agreement providing the rights, preferences and privileges of such Covered Put Securities, and (ii) interest on the portion of the aggregate Common Unit Put Price payable to each holder of Covered Put Securities shall accrue daily in arrears at a rate equal to the Company Interest Rate, compounded monthly.

Upon completion of the Distribution of the assets of the Company as provided in Section 13.03(c), the Company shall be terminated and the Liquidator shall cause the cancellation of the Certificate of Formation in the State of Delaware and of all qualifications and registrations of the Company as a foreign limited liability company in jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company.

Section 13.05    Survival of Rights, Duties and Obligations. Dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination of the Company for any reason shall not release any party from any Loss which at the time of such dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination already had accrued to any other party or which thereafter may accrue in respect of any act or omission prior to such dissolution, liquidation, winding up or termination. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the foregoing shall replace, diminish or otherwise adversely affect any Member’s right to indemnification pursuant to Section 14.03.

Section 13.06    Recourse for Claims. Each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for all Distributions with respect to the Company, such Member’s Capital Account and such Member’s share of Net Income, Net Loss and other items of income, gain, loss and deduction and shall have no recourse therefor (upon dissolution or otherwise) against the Board, the Liquidator or any other Member.

ARTICLE XIV
Exculpation and Indemnification

Section 14.01    Exculpation of Covered Persons.

(a)       Covered Persons. As used herein, the term “Covered Person” means (i) each Member, (ii) each officer, director, shareholder, partner, member, controlling Affiliate, employee, agent or Representative of each Member and each of their controlling Affiliates and each F3C Observer and (iii) each Manager, Officer, employee, agent or Representative of the Company and any Company Subsidiary.

(b)        Standard of Care. No Covered Person shall be liable to the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Covered Person in his, her or its capacity as a Covered Person, so long as such action or omission does not constitute fraud or willful misconduct by such Covered Person.

(c)        Good Faith Reliance. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, Net Income or Net Losses of the Company or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions might properly be paid) of the following Persons or groups: (i) a Manager; (ii) one or more Officers or employees of the Company or a Company Subsidiary; (iii) any attorney, independent accountant, appraiser or other expert or professional employed or engaged by or on behalf of the Company or a Company Subsidiary; or (iv) any other Person selected in good faith by or on behalf of the Company, in each case as to matters that such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely on information to the extent provided in § 18-406 of the Delaware Act.

Section 14.02     Liabilities and Duties of Covered Persons. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any fiduciary duty on any Covered Person. Furthermore, each of the Members and the Company hereby waives any and all fiduciary duties that, absent such waiver, may be implied by Applicable Law and, in doing so, acknowledges and agrees that the duties and obligations of each Covered Person to each other and to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Covered Person.

Section 14.03     Indemnification.

(a)      Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution or replacement, only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Delaware Act permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment, substitution or replacement), the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless, defend, pay and reimburse any Covered Person against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines and liabilities, including reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in investigating or defending against such losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines or liabilities and any amounts expended in settlement of any claims (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Covered Person may become subject by reason of:

(i)           Any act or omission or alleged act or omission performed or omitted to be performed on behalf of the Company, any Member or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the foregoing in connection with the business of the Company; or

(ii)           The fact that such Covered Person is or was acting in connection with the business of the Company as a partner, member, stockholder, controlling Affiliate, manager, director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, any Member, or any of their respective controlling Affiliates, or that such Covered Person is or was serving at the request of the Company as a partner, member, manager, director, officer, employee, or agent of any Person including the Company or any Company Subsidiary;

provided, that (x) such Covered Person acted in good faith and in a manner believed by such Covered Person to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable basis to believe his or her conduct was unlawful and (y) such Covered Person’s conduct did not constitute fraud or willful misconduct, in either case as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In connection with the foregoing, the termination of any action, suit, or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Covered Person did not act in good faith or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable basis to believe that such Covered Person’s conduct was unlawful, or that the Covered Person’s conduct constituted fraud or willful misconduct.

(b)          Reimbursement. The Company shall promptly reimburse (and/or advance to the extent reasonably required) each Covered Person for reasonable legal or other expenses (as incurred) of such Covered Person in connection with investigating, preparing to defend, or defending any claim, lawsuit, or other proceeding relating to any Losses for which such Covered Person may be indemnified pursuant to this Section 14.03; provided, that if it is finally judicially determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to the indemnification provided by this Section 14.03, then such Covered Person shall promptly reimburse the Company for any reimbursed or advanced expenses.

(c)          Entitlement to Indemnity.

(i)            The indemnification provided by this Section 14.03 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 14.03 shall continue to afford protection to each Covered Person regardless of whether such Covered Person remains in the position or capacity pursuant to which such Covered Person became entitled to indemnification under this Section 14.03 and shall inure to the benefit of the executors, administrators, legatees and Distributees of such Covered Person.

(ii)           The Company hereby acknowledges that the F3C Managers and F3C Observer (the “F3C Covered Persons”) may have rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by F3C or Affiliates of F3C (collectively, the “F3C Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (A) that it is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to the F3C Covered Persons (i.e., its obligations to the F3C Covered Persons are primary and any obligation of the F3C Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by any F3C Covered Person are secondary), (B) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by a an F3C Covered Person and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement and the Certificate of Formation (or any other agreement between the Company and the F3C Covered Person), without regard to any rights any F3C Covered Person may have against the F3C Indemnitors, and (C) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the F3C Indemnitors from any and all claims against the F3C Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the F3C Indemnitors on behalf of an F3C Covered Person with respect to any claim for an F3C Covered Person has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the F3C Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such F3C Covered Person against the Company. The Company and F3C Covered Persons agree that the F3C Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 14.03(c)(ii).

(d)        Insurance. To the extent available on commercially reasonable terms, the Company shall purchase and maintain, at its expense, insurance to cover Losses covered by the foregoing indemnification provisions and to otherwise cover Losses for any breach or alleged breach by any Covered Person of such Covered Person’s duties in such amount and with such deductibles as the Board may determine; provided, that the failure to obtain such insurance shall not affect the right to indemnification of any Covered Person under the indemnification provisions contained herein, including the right to be reimbursed or advanced expenses or otherwise indemnified for Losses hereunder. If any Covered Person recovers any amounts in respect of any Losses from any insurance coverage, then such Covered Person shall, to the extent that such recovery is duplicative, reimburse the Company for any amounts previously paid to such Covered Person by the Company in respect of such Losses.

(e)        Funding of Indemnification Obligation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any indemnity by the Company relating to the matters covered in this Section 14.03 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only and no Member (unless such Member otherwise agrees in writing) shall have personal liability on account thereof or shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity by the Company.

(f)         Savings Clause. If this Section 14.03 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person pursuant to this Section 14.03 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 14.03 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(g)        Amendment. The provisions of this Section 14.03 shall be a contract between the Company, on the one hand, and each Covered Person who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 14.03 is in effect, on the other hand, pursuant to which the Company and each such Covered Person intend to be legally bound. No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 14.03 that adversely affects the rights of a Covered Person to indemnification for Losses incurred or relating to a state of facts existing prior to such amendment, modification or repeal shall apply in such a way as to eliminate or reduce such Covered Person’s entitlement to indemnification for such Losses without the Covered Person’s prior written consent.

Section 14.04    Survival. The provisions of this ARTICLE XIV shall survive the dissolution, liquidation, winding up and termination of the Company.

ARTICLE XV

Section 15.03     Headings. The bold-face and underlined headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only, are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement, and accordingly are deemed not to be a part of the mutual understanding and agreement of the parties set forth in this Agreement.

Section 15.04     Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable under Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, 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 a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 15.05    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Certificate of Formation, the Subscription Agreements, the Equity Commitment Letters, the Limited Guarantee and all related Exhibits and Schedules, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter, including the Original Agreement and the Consortium Agreement, provided it is understood that any right, duty or provision under the Consortium Agreement that, by its terms, survives termination of the Consortium Agreement shall not be affected by the parties’ entering into this Agreement.

Except as provided in ARTICLE XIV, which shall be for the benefit of and enforceable by Covered Persons as described therein, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto (and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns) and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person, including any creditor of the Company, any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 15.08     Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing executed by the Company and Members holding a majority of the Common Units, except for amendments adopted by the Board in accordance with Section 3.04(b)(iv). Any such written amendment or modification will be binding upon the Company and each Member; provided, that an amendment or modification modifying the rights or obligations of any Member in a manner that is disproportionately adverse to (i) such Member relative to the rights of other Members in respect of Units of the same class or series or (ii) a class or series of Units relative to the rights of another class or series of Units, shall in each case be effective only with that Member’s consent or the consent of the Members holding a majority of the Units in that class or series, as applicable; and provided, further that an amendment or modification the effect of which modifies or eliminates the right of a Member or Members to consent to or approve an action by the Company, the Board or any other Member, shall be effective only if approved or consented to in writing by the vote or consent required to approve such an action of the Company, Board or Member in accordance with the provision being amended or modified, without giving effect to such amendment or modification; and provided, further that no amendment or modification may impose an obligation on any Member to make an additional Capital Contribution to the Company without the prior consent of such Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amendments to the Members Schedule following any new issuance, redemption, repurchase or Transfer of Units in accordance with this Agreement may be made by the Board without the consent of or execution by the Members.

Section 15.09     Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach, or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 15.09 shall diminish any of the explicit and implicit waivers described in this Agreement, including in Section 4.07(e), Section 8.04(c), Section 9.01(d), Section 10.03(b)(ii), Section 10.04(f) and Section 15.12 hereof.

Section 15.10     Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the application, construction, validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

Section 15.11     Submission to Jurisdiction. The parties hereby agree that any suit, action, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall be brought in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware), so long as one of such courts shall have subject-matter jurisdiction over such suit, action, or proceeding and that any case of action arising out of this Agreement shall be deemed to have arisen from a transaction of business in the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient form. Service of process, summons, notice, or other document by registered mail to the address set forth in Section 15.02 shall be effective service of process for any suit, action, or other proceeding brought in any such court.

Section 15.12     Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 15.13     Equitable Remedies. Each party hereto acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations, each of the other parties hereto shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to them in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

Section 15.14     Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity or otherwise, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 14.02 to the contrary.

Section 15.15     Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.

In connection with a transaction described in Section 15.16(a), the Board shall, in good faith but subject to the following sentence, determine the Fair Market Value of the assets and/or Units Transferred to, merged with, or converted into shares of the IPO Entity, the aggregate Fair Market Value of the IPO Entity and the number of shares of capital stock or other Equity Interests to be issued to each Member in exchange or consideration therefor. In determining Fair Market Value, (i) the offering price of the Initial Public Offering shall be used by the Board to determine the Fair Market Value of the capital stock or other Equity Interests of the IPO Entity and (ii) the Distributions that the Members would have received with respect to their Units if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and Distributions made to the Members in accordance with Section 13.03(c) shall determine the Fair Market Value of the Units. In addition, any Units to be converted into or redeemed or exchanged for shares of the IPO Entity shall receive shares with substantially equivalent economic, governance, priority and other rights and privileges as in effect immediately prior to such transaction (disregarding the tax treatment of such transaction).

(c)        Appointment of Proxy. Each Member hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Company, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, its true and lawful attorney, for it and in its name, place and stead and for its use and benefit, to act as its proxy in respect of any vote or approval of Members required to give effect to this Section 15.16, including any vote or approval required under § 18-209 or § 18-216 of the Delaware Act. The proxy granted pursuant to this Section 15.16(c) is a special proxy coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(d)         Lock-up Agreement. Each Member hereby agrees that in connection with an Initial Public Offering and upon the request of the managing underwriter in such offering, such Member shall not, without the prior written consent of such managing underwriter, during the 90 days prior to the effective date of such registration and ending on the date specified by such managing underwriter (such period not to exceed 180 days in the case of an Initial Public Offering or 180 days in the case of any registration other than an Initial Public Offering), (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, hedge the beneficial ownership of, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Units or Unit Equivalents (including any equity securities of the IPO Entity) held immediately before the effectiveness of the registration statement for such offering, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Units or Unit Equivalents (including equity securities of the IPO Entity) or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 15.16(d) shall not apply to sales of securities to be included in such Initial Public Offering or other offering if otherwise permitted and shall be applicable to the Members only if all officers and directors of the Company and all Members owning more than 1.0% of the Company’s outstanding Common Units (or the IPO Entity’s equivalent common equity securities) are subject to the same restrictions. Each Member agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the managing underwriter which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 15.16(d), each Member shall be released, pro rata, from any lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 15.16(d) in the event and to the extent that the managing underwriter or the Company permit any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any lock-up agreement pertaining to any officer, director or holder of greater than 1.0% of the Company’s outstanding Common Units (or the IPO Entity’s equivalent common equity securities).

(e)         Registration Rights.

The Company agrees that the F3C Unitholders, F3C, Barings and their respective Affiliates may each refer to the Company and its Subsidiaries as one of their investments, as applicable, and may each include ALSK’s name and logo in their respective marketing documents, provided that such marketing documents do not indicate or imply that the Company or its Affiliates has approved or endorsed any product offered by the F3C Unitholders, F3C, Barings or their respective Affiliates.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the foregoing shall not be interpreted to compromise or limit AFF’s contractual liability to perform AFF’s obligations under this Agreement or the Preferred Unit Subscription Agreement or any agreement related thereto, nor shall it reduce or modify the rights of the Company to enforce such obligations at law or in equity.
