WHEREAS, each Party hereto desires to execute this Agreement to induce the other Parties hereto to execute and deliver this Agreement and each Party acknowledges that he or it has been induced to execute this Agreement by the execution by each other Party.

2.                                      Consideration — Issuance of Membership Interests in Holding Company.  In exchange for the transfer and assignment of the Acquired Units, Holding Company shall issue to the Members, as of the Effective Date, certificated units of membership interests in Holding Company (the “New LLC Interests”), as provided in the following provisions of this Section 2, and each Member shall

be admitted as a member of Holding Company and such membership shall be reflected in the records of Holding Company.

(c)                                  Holding Company Deliveries and Actions.  At the Closing, provided that each Member has delivered the executed Member Control Agreement and original unit certificates, and any other document Holding Company deems necessary to effect the transfer of the Acquired Units to Holding Company, Holding Company shall issue to each Member his or its respective New LLC Interests as set forth on Exhibit D, and reflect the admission of such Member as a member of Holding Company in its records.
