For purposes of rounding, (i) any fractional share greater than or equal to 0.50 shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and any fractional share less than 0.50 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share and (ii) any fraction of a cent greater than or equal to $0.0050 shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent and any fraction of a cent less than 0.0050 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent.

(iv) surrender of Units or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Units as the Administrator may require which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Units as to which said Award shall be exercised, provided, however, that Units acquired under the Plan or any other equity compensation plan or agreement of the Company must have been held by the Grantee for a period of more than six (6) months (and not used for another Award exercise by attestation during such period);

(v) with respect to Options, if the exercise occurs on or after the Registration Date, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Grantee (A) shall provide written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares and remit to the

(vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

The Administrator may at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard forms of Award Agreement described in Section 4(c)(iv), or by other means, grant Awards which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment for the Shares or which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.

11

(c) As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to execute and deliver a signature page to, and agree to comply with, the provisions of the LLC Agreement and to make such representations and warranties contained in the LLC Agreement that are required of Members of the Company.

Except as the Executive Committee determines, no issuance by the Company of units of any class, or securities convertible into units of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Units subject to an Award; provided, however, that the percentage of Class B Common Interests underlying the Units shall be adjusted for any increase or decrease in the Class B Common Interests issued or repurchased by the Company and no action by the Administrator or the Executive Committee will be required for any such adjustment.

12

(ii) for the portion of each Award that is neither Assumed nor Replaced, such portion of the Award shall automatically become fully vested and exercisable and be released from any repurchase or forfeiture rights (other than repurchase rights exercisable at Fair Market Value) for all of the Units at the time represented by such portion of the Award, immediately prior to the specified effective date of such Company Transaction, provided that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has not terminated prior to such date.

Upon the Incorporation, all references in the Plan to Units shall automatically be converted into references to the shares of Common Stock or preferred stock into which the Units are converted and all references to the Company shall automatically be converted into references to the Corporate Successor.

14. No Effect on Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship.

The ability of the Company or any Related Entity to terminate the employment of a Grantee who is employed at will is in no way affected by its determination that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has been terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan.
