3.                                      Investment Representations of Executive.

 

3.1.                            Representations and Warranties.  In connection with the issuance of the Incentive Units hereunder, Executive represents and warrants to the Company that as of the date hereof:

 

(a)                                 The Incentive Units to be acquired by Executive pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for Executive’s own account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable state or foreign securities laws, and the Incentive Units will not be disposed of in contravention of the Securities Act or any applicable state or foreign securities laws.

 

(b)                                 This Agreement, the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms and conditions, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement by Executive do not and will not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement or instrument to which Executive is a party or subject or any judgment, order or decree to which Executive is subject.

 

(c)                                  Executive is an employee or service provider to the Company or its subsidiaries, is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Incentive Units.

 

(d)                                 If the Company has notified Executive (including, without limitation, by a notice set forth on the signature page attached hereto) that it is relying or may rely on an exemption pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act for the issuance of the Incentive Units to Executive, Executive is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

 

(e)                                  Executive is able to bear the economic risk of Executive’s investment in the Incentive Units for an indefinite period of time because the Incentive Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.

 

(f)                                   Executive (i) has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Incentive Units and (ii) has had full access to such other information concerning the Company as Executive has requested in connection with the investments contemplated hereby.

 

(g)                                  Executive acknowledges and agrees that there may be additional issuances of units of the Company on or after the Grant Date and the Incentive Units of Executive may be diluted in connection with any such issuance in the Company’s sole discretion.

 

(h)                                 Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or representatives has made any representations regarding such tax consequences or benefits upon which Executive has relied and that neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or representatives shall have any liability or obligation to Executive with respect to any such tax liabilities.

 

(i)                                     Executive is a resident of the city, state and country indicated on the signature page to this Agreement.

(j)                                    Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive received and reviewed a copy of the Securityholders Agreement and the LLC Agreement and that the Incentive Units are subject to the terms and conditions of the Securityholders Agreement and the LLC Agreement.

 

(k)                                 The Company has advised Executive that a notation in the form set forth below and the legends set forth in Section 9.2 of the Securityholders Agreement shall be placed in the appropriate records of the Company indicating that the Units are subject to restrictions on transfer (and if the Company should at some time in the future engage the services of a securities transfer agent, appropriate stop-transfer instructions will be issued to such transfer agent with respect to the Incentive Units):

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN REPURCHASE OPTIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN AN INCENTIVE UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND [    ], DATED AS OF OCTOBER 7, 2015, AS AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF AT THE ISSUER’S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS WITHOUT CHARGE.”

4.2.                            Engagement in Prohibited Activity.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Executive engages in any Prohibited Activity, whether on or after the Termination Date, then all Incentive Units held by the Executive Group shall expire and be immediately forfeited without consideration or the need for any further action by any Person. If Executive engages in any Prohibited Activity, then Executive shall be required to pay to the Company, within ten (10) business days following the Activity Date, an amount equal to the aggregate proceeds the Executive Group received upon the sale or other disposition of any Units (including any consideration received by Executive with respect to such Incentive Units in connection with a Company Sale, a Public Offering or a Holdings Public Offering).

 

5.                                      Miscellaneous.

 

5.1.                            Transfers to Permitted Transferees.  Prior to the transfer of Incentive Units to a Permitted Transferee (other than a transfer in connection with or subsequent to a Company Sale), Executive shall deliver to the Company a written agreement (in a form acceptable to the Company) of the proposed transferee (a) evidencing such Person’s undertaking to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, making the same representations and warranties as Executive hereto), the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement and (b) acknowledging that the Incentive Units transferred to such Person will continue to be Incentive Units for purposes of this Agreement in the hands of such Person.  Any transfer or attempted

5.2.                            Recapitalizations, Exchanges, Etc., Affecting Units.  The provisions of this Agreement shall apply, to the full extent set forth herein with respect to the Incentive Units, to any and all securities of the Company or any successor or assign of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise) which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for, or in substitution of the Units, by reason of any dividend payable in Units, issuance of Units, combination, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or otherwise.

 

5.3.                            Executive’s Employment by the Company.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to employ or otherwise engage Executive in any capacity whatsoever or to prohibit or restrict the Company (or any such subsidiary) from terminating the employment or engagement of Executive at any time or for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.

 

5.4.                            Binding Effect.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and accrue to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that no Permitted Transferee shall derive any rights under this Agreement unless and until such Permitted Transferee has executed and delivered to the Company a valid undertaking and becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement, the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement; provided further that Vestar Capital Partners V, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, is a third party beneficiary of the Company’s rights under this Agreement and shall have the right to enforce the provisions hereof on the Company’s behalf in its sole discretion.

 

5.5.                            Amendment; Waiver.  This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument signed by the parties hereto.  No waiver by any party hereto of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless set forth in a writing executed by the party so waiving.

5.8.                            Notices.  All notices and other communications hereunder shall be sent in accordance with the LLC Agreement.

 

5.9.                            Integration.  This Agreement and the documents referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement) contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those expressly set forth herein and therein.  This Agreement and the documents referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement) supersede and cancel all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.  The parties hereby agree and acknowledge that, other than as provided or referenced herein, Executive holds no other incentive equity units in the Company, and to the extent incentive equity units were granted previously, Executive hereby forfeits any and all such incentive equity units, for no consideration and without the need for any further action by either party.

 

5.10.                     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by means of telecopied signature pages and electronic signature pages delivered by PDF), and by different parties on separate counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

5.11.                     Injunctive Relief.  Without intending to limit the remedies available to each of the parties hereto, the Company, Executive and Executive’s Permitted Transferees each acknowledges that a breach of any of the terms of this Agreement may result in material and irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof, each party hereto shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order and/or preliminary or permanent injunction restraining the other party (and their Permitted Transferees) from engaging in activities prohibited by this Agreement or such other relief as may be required specifically to enforce any of the terms hereof.  If for any reason it is held that the restrictions under this Agreement are not reasonable or that consideration therefore is inadequate, such restrictions shall be interpreted or modified to include as much of the duration and scope identified in this Agreement as will render such restrictions valid and enforceable.

 

5.12.                     WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

 

5.13.                     Rights Cumulative; Waiver.  The rights and remedies of Executive and the Company under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which either would otherwise have hereunder or at law or in equity or by statute, and no failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or operate as a waiver of such right or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude such party’s other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.  The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach and no failure by either party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights or privileges hereunder or shall be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights to exercise the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder.

5.14.                     Spousal Consent.  If Executive is lawfully married as of the date hereof, Executive’s spouse shall execute and deliver to the Company the Consent in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto. No spouse executing the Consent or any such writing solely by reason of such spouse’s “community property” interest in the Incentive Units (if any), shall be considered to be a “Member” under the LLC Agreement for any purposes whatsoever.

 

5.15.                     Taxes. The Company or its subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any cash amounts owing to Executive any taxes imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or its subsidiaries or Executive’s ownership interest in the Company, including wages, bonuses and/or cash distributions. To the extent that such amounts are insufficient to permit the Company or its subsidiaries to satisfy withholding obligations solely with respect to such taxes arising from Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or its subsidiaries, Executive shall indemnify the Company and its subsidiaries for any amounts paid with respect to any such taxes, together with any interest, penalties and related expenses thereto.

 

5.16.                     Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties contained herein or made in writing by any party in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement shall survive Executive’s termination of employment or service and shall remain in full force and effect after such termination.

 

5.17.                     Deemed Transfer of Executive Securities. If, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement any Incentive Units are forfeited in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Securityholders Agreement or the LLC Agreement, then from and after such time, the Person holding such forfeited units shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such units and such units shall be deemed forfeited in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof and thereof and the Company shall be deemed the owner and holder of such units, whether or not the certificates therefor, if any, have been delivered.

 

6.                                      Joinder to LLC Agreement and Securityholders Agreement.  If Executive is not already a party to the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement, then by virtue of the grant of the Incentive Units and Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive hereby joins and becomes a party to, and the Company hereby accepts Executive as a party to, each of the LLC Agreement as a Management Member and the Securityholders Agreement as an Other Holder.  The Company and Executive each acknowledges and agrees that Executive shall be entitled to the applicable benefits, and shall be subject to the applicable obligations under the LLC Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement.  In the event that Executive fails to timely comply with any of Executive’s obligations under the LLC Agreement or Securityholders Agreement as determined by the Board in its good-faith discretion, Executive may be required to immediately forfeit any or all of the Incentive Units outstanding at the time of such non-compliance without any consideration being paid therefor.  By virtue of the grant of the Incentive Units and Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall be deemed to have granted Executive’s perpetual and irrevocable power of attorney to the Company, with full right, power and authority to take all actions necessary and/or desirable on behalf of Executive to effectuate the provisions of the LLC Agreement and Securityholders Agreement with respect to all Incentive Units owned by Executive and acquired by Executive hereunder.  If Executive is already a party to the LLC Agreement, then, by virtue of the grant of the Units hereunder and Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive hereby consents to the terms and conditions set forth in the LLC Agreement and hereby joins and becomes a party to the LLC Agreement.
