Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, including in Section 1.1 thereof, the Company and the Purchaser hereby agree that, on the terms and subject to the conditions in the Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company agrees to sell and issue to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company 6,346,155 shares of Class A Common Stock, free and clear of any Liens (other than restrictions arising under applicable securities Laws), at a purchase price of $15.60 per share of Class A Common Stock.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, the Company and the Purchaser hereby further agree that, subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph five of this letter agreement, on the date that is 5 business days following the receipt by the Purchaser of the approval contemplated by Item 6 of Schedule 2.2(b) to the Agreement (the “Second Closing Date”), the Company agrees to sell and issue to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company 1,666,666 shares of Class A Common Stock, free and clear of any Liens (other than restrictions arising under applicable securities Laws), at a purchase price of $15.60 per share of Class A Common Stock (the “Second Purchase Price”).  The closing of the purchase and sale by the Purchaser of the Class A Common Stock referred to in the previous sentence pursuant to this letter agreement (the “Second Closing”) shall be held at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, 51 West 52nd Street, New York, New York 10019, at 10:00 am New York time on the Second Closing Date.
