Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information included in Item 2.01 below of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On January 9, 2015, NorthStar Asset Management Group Inc. (“NSAM”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Platform Hospitality Investor T-II, LLC (“NSAM Member”), completed its investment in the business of Island Hospitality Group Inc. (“Island”) through the acquisition of 45% of the membership interests (the “Island Interest”) of Island Hospitality Joint Venture, LLC (“Island Ventures”), a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of Island JV Member Inc. (“Island Member”). NSAM purchased the Island Interest with a combination of cash and stock totaling approximately $37.8 million, consisting of $33.2 million of cash and 208,486 shares of NSAM restricted common stock (which stock is subject to certain lock-up restrictions). Island is a hospitality-focused real estate management firm which currently manages 143 hotel properties. The purchase of the Island Interest was made pursuant to a unit purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Island Member.

NSAM’s investment in Island Ventures is structured as a joint venture between the NSAM Member and Island Member. Concurrently with the closing, the NSAM Member and Island Member entered into a limited liability company agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) for Island Ventures, which provides for the organizational, economic and governance arrangements of the joint venture and the rights and obligations of each of the joint venture members. The Island Venture is managed by a managing member (which is currently the Island Member), subject to certain major decision approval rights by a committee consisting of Jeffrey Fisher, an Island principal, two members appointed by the Island Member and two members appointed by the NSAM Member. Certain major decisions require the consent of the NSAM Member appointed committee members. The principals of Island will continue to run the day-to-day operations of Island Ventures’ business, including continuing as operator of a majority of the hotel portfolio owned by NSAM’s managed companies. The members of Island Ventures are entitled to receive certain distributions of operating cash flow in accordance with the allocations set forth in the LLC Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and indemnification obligations of the parties, as described in the Purchase Agreement.  In addition, in connection with the closing, NSAM entered into various restrictive covenants related to the business being conducted by Island Ventures.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the LLC Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the LLC Agreement, filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Each Transaction Entity has the requisite corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) power and authority to own or lease its assets and properties and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted.

(b)Each Transaction Entity is duly licensed or qualified and is in good standing as a foreign entity in all jurisdictions in which it is required to be so licensed or qualified, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified, individually or in the aggregate, has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 2.2Due Authorization. Each Transaction Entity has all requisite corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) authority and power to execute and deliver each Transaction Document to which such Transaction Entity is or will be a party and to consummate the Contemplated Transactions. The execution, delivery and performance by each Transaction Entity of the applicable Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) action on the part of each such Transaction Entity and no other action

(b)breach, violate, conflict with or result in a default in any material respect under any provision of, or constitute an event that, after notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a breach or violation of or conflict or default in any material respect under any applicable Law or Order binding upon or applicable to any Transaction Entity;

(c)violate or conflict with any Organizational Documents of any Transaction Entity; or

(d)result in the creation or imposition of any Encumbrance, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, on any Assets of any Transaction Entity.

Prior to the date hereof, Seller has made available to Purchaser a true and correct copy of each Lease. Each Lease is a valid and binding obligation of each Company Entity that is party to such Lease, is in full force and effect and is enforceable against any such Company Entity, and, to the Knowledge of Seller, the other Persons party thereto, in each case subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.

(c)Except as set forth in Section 2.16(c) of the Seller Disclosure Letter, no Transaction Entity has transferred its right to receive any fees payable to a Transaction Entity pursuant to a Management Agreement.

(a)A Person that may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article IV or Article V, as applicable (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly send written notice of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to such right of indemnification (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”)) (the “Indemnification Notice”) to any party or parties obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to Article IV or Article V, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”).  The Indemnification Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail in light of the circumstances then known to such Indemnified Party (i) the factual basis for, and circumstances of, such claim, (ii) the amount of Losses incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Party (if known at such time) or the amount of Losses that the Indemnified Party reasonably anticipates it will have to pay, and (iii) the specific representation, warranty or covenant on which such claim for indemnification is based, to the extent applicable; provided, however, that any delay or failure by the Indemnified Party in giving such Indemnification Notice, or any failure to provide in reasonable detail the basis for such claim or

amount of Losses incurred, shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure, it being agreed that notices for any claims for which indemnification is sought hereunder must be delivered prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

(b)If such Indemnification Notice pertains solely to a breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, then the Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of the Indemnification Notice to notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party.  If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days following its receipt of such Indemnification Notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party, the claims specified by the Indemnified Party in such Indemnification Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claims (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party does notify the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days following its receipt of such Indemnification Notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party, then the parties shall have such rights as may be available to them under this Agreement and applicable Laws (but subject to the limitations set forth elsewhere in this Article V, including Sections 5.4 and 5.8).

(c)If such Indemnification Notice pertains to a Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of the Indemnification Notice to notify the Indemnified Party of whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim.  During such period, unless and until the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall make such filings, including motions for continuance (and answers if a motion for continuance has not been granted), as may be necessary to preserve the parties’ positions and rights with respect to such claim or demand.

(d)The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or continue control of the defense of any Third Party Claim if (v) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Action, (w) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against any Indemnified Party, (x) the Third Party Claim has or would reasonably be expected to result in Losses in excess of the amounts available for indemnification pursuant to Section 4.1, Section 5.2 or Section 5.3, as applicable, (y) the Indemnifying Party has failed to defend in good faith the Third Party Claim or (z) the Indemnifying Party has not acknowledged that such Third Party Claim is subject to indemnification pursuant to Article IV or Article V, as applicable (it being agreed that any acknowledgment of the Indemnifying Party must be in writing). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and control of a Third Party Claim and, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Indemnifying Party has delivered notice of its intent to assume the defense, (A) the Indemnified Party discovers that the facts presented

at the time the Indemnifying Party acknowledged its indemnification obligations in respect of such Third Party Claim pursuant to clause (z) above were not accurate, (B) the Indemnifying Party reasonably determines in good faith that such inaccuracy provides a reasonable basis for asserting that the Indemnifying Party does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third Party Claim or that the Losses that could reasonably be expected to result from such Third Party Claim would exceed the maximum amount for which the Indemnifying Party would have been obligated to indemnify had the Indemnifying Party not delivered the acknowledgement pursuant to clause (z) above and (C) the Indemnifying Party has not taken any actions in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim (including in furtherance of a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claim) that would materially prejudice the Indemnified Party’s ability to conduct a good faith defense, then the Indemnifying Party may provide the Indemnified Party written notice that it is withdrawing the acknowledgement delivered by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to clause (z) above, together with reasonable supporting information regarding the basis for such withdrawal, following which (1) the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by such acknowledgement for any purpose hereunder and (2) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim by delivering written notice of such assumption to the Indemnifying Party (it being agreed that all costs and expenses of the Indemnifying Party in conducting such defense prior to the date on which it provided notice of its withdrawal, including costs and expenses, shall be the responsibility of the Indemnifying Party and not the Indemnified Party).

(e)If the Indemnifying Party does not have the right to or does not assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 5.5(d), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense provided that the reasonable expense of separate counsel for such Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party (unless it is judicially determined that the Indemnifying Party was not required to indemnify the Indemnified Party for such claim).

(f)In any situation where the Indemnified Party is entitled to and does assume and control the defense of the claim, the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(g)If the parties to the action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by legal counsel that it has available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims which are inconsistent with one or more defenses or counterclaims which may be alleged by the Indemnifying Party, as a result of which representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the reasonable expense of separate counsel for such Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.

(h)In any instance where the Indemnifying Party is obligated to pay for the expense of the Indemnified Party’s counsel pursuant to Section 5.5(e) or Section 5.5(g), the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay for only one counsel for the Indemnified Party (unless it is reasonably determined in any instance that additional expert counsel is necessary for the proper adjudication of the claim).

(i)If the Indemnifying Party is entitled to and assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, it shall not consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, the Third Party Claim unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by the Indemnified Party; provided, however, in no event shall the consent of the Indemnified Party be required if each of the following conditions are satisfied with respect to such settlement (the “Settlement Conditions”): (A) such compromise, settlement or judgment does not entail any admission of liability on the part of any Indemnified Party or the requirement that any Indemnified Party take any action other than the delivery of a customary release relating to the specific matter at issue; (B) such compromise, settlement or judgment involves only a cash payment and not any equitable relief, and the Indemnifying Party pays or causes to be paid such cash amounts (other than any Threshold Amount, if applicable); and (C) such compromise, settlement or judgment includes an unconditional release of each Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all Losses with respect to such Third Party Claim. If an Indemnified Party does not consent to any settlement proposed by the Indemnifying Party with respect to any Third Party Claim with respect to which the Indemnifying Party’s consent has been unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, then the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation (if any) pursuant to Article IV or Article V with respect to such Third Party Claim shall in no event exceed the amount that would have been required to be paid if such settlement had occurred.

(j)If the Indemnifying Party is entitled to and assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ, at its own expense, counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party.

(k)No Indemnified Party will consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, or admit any liability with respect to, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(l)An Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, personnel, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party.

Section 5.6Payment and Reimbursement Obligations. In the event that (a) an Indemnified Party incurs or suffers any Losses and (b) the Indemnifying Party is obligated pursuant to a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, a final arbitral award against the Indemnifying Party or a definitive settlement agreement with the Indemnifying Party to pay any amount of such Losses to the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article V, such amount shall be due and payable within twenty (20) Business Days after the Indemnifying Party receives written notice that such amount is payable pursuant to such decision or award against the Indemnifying Party or after entry into such settlement agreement.

Section 5.7Effect of Knowledge. The right to indemnification, payment of Losses or other remedies based on any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement will not be affected merely by the fact that any investigation was conducted with respect to or any knowledge or information was acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement (other than disclosures made in the Seller Disclosure Letter).

Section 5.8Additional Matters.

(a)For purposes of Article IV and this Article V, in determining whether there has been a breach and then calculating the amount of Losses that are the subject matter of such claim for indemnification pursuant to Article IV and this Article V, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, or any certificate delivered with respect hereto, if applicable, shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications as to “materiality,” “material adverse effect,” “Material Adverse Effect,” or any other materiality qualifications (except that (x) the representations and warranties contained in the second sentence of Section 2.11 and (y) the definition of Material Contracts and the use of such defined term herein, shall be read without excluding such qualifications). 

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to the immediately following sentence, no Indemnifying Party shall be liable to any Indemnified Party on account of any indemnity obligation set forth in Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 for any special, incidental, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages (including lost profits or damages calculated on multiples of earnings or other metrics approaches other than any such damages that are actually incurred and paid by an Indemnified Party pursuant to a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a limitation on the recovery of any Losses suffered by any Purchaser Indemnified Party as a result of any so-called “diminution in value” of the Purchased Units (provided that (i) for purposes of any determination of diminution in value, the value of the Purchased Units shall be deemed to be the Purchase Price of such Purchased Units and (ii) in determining “diminution in value”, consequential and similar damages relating to speculative future events, including foregone opportunities, shall not be considered (provided the foregoing shall not exclude damages calculated on a multiples of earnings or other metrics approaches utilized to calculate the value of the Purchased Units as of the Effective Date). Purchaser and Seller (on behalf of itself and the Principal) shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or Liability with respect to which

one party is obligated to indemnify the other party hereunder.To the extent that a Loss is solely a loss of the Company, Purchaser will be deemed to have suffered a proportion of such Loss in accordance with its percentage interest in the Company.

(c)Each of Purchaser and Seller acknowledges and agrees that, other than the representations and warranties of Purchaser and Seller specifically contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (i) there are no representations or warranties of Purchaser or Seller either expressed or implied with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, the Company or its Assets, Liabilities and Business, and neither Purchaser nor any Seller has relied on any representations or warranties other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) it shall have no claim or right to indemnification pursuant to this Article V with respect to any information, documents or materials furnished by Seller, the Company or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or advisors to the other parties, including any information, documents or materials made available to a party in certain “data rooms”, management presentations or any other form in expectation of the Contemplated Transactions. Each of Purchaser and Seller also acknowledges and agrees that in connection with the Contemplated Transactions it has received certain estimates, projections, forecasts and similar forward looking statements relating to the future operating and financial performance of the other party and no representation or warranty is being made by or on behalf of any party with respect to such matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.8(c) shall not limit Purchaser’s remedies in the case of fraud.

(d)No party shall have any right to indemnification under this Article V with respect to any Losses to the extent (and only to the extent) such Losses (i) result solely from any action taken by or willfully omitted to be taken by such party or (ii) are duplicative of Losses that have previously been recovered hereunder.

(e)The amount of Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article V shall be net of (i) any Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party in connection with the incurrence of such Loss, (ii) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses (after deducting all out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with making and enforcing such insurance claims) and (iii) indemnity, contribution or similar proceeds that have been actually recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification. To the extent that third-party insurance or indemnification, contribution or similar proceeds in respect of such facts are recovered by the Indemnified Party subsequent to the Indemnifying Party’s making of an indemnification payment in satisfaction of its applicable indemnification obligation, such proceeds shall be promptly remitted to the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the indemnification payment made. With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in this Article V, the Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity, contribution or similar provisions covering such Loss to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder. Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article V, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party may have against any third parties with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification

claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assign any such rights to the Indemnifying Party. For purposes of this Section 5.8(e), a Tax benefit shall be deemed to have been actually realized if, and to the extent, the hypothetical Tax liability, if any, of the Indemnified Party (or any affiliated, combined, consolidated or unitary group of which the Indemnified Party is a member) for any taxable year, calculated without taking into account any Tax items attributable to such Loss (and, for the avoidance of doubt, without taking into account any net operating loss carryovers or carrybacks attributable to any such Loss incurred in any prior or subsequent taxable year), exceeds the actual Tax liability, if any, of the Indemnified Party (or any affiliated, combined, consolidated or unitary group of which the Indemnified Party is a member) for such taxable year, calculated by taking into account any Tax items attributable to such Loss (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any net operating loss carryovers or carrybacks attributable to any such Loss incurred in any prior or subsequent taxable year (determined by treating such Loss as the last item claimed in any prior or subsequent taxable year)).

CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS.

Section 6.12Seller Disclosure Letter; Schedules; Exhibits.

Capitalized terms used in a particular Section of the Seller Disclosure Letter and not otherwise defined therein will have the meaning given to such terms in this Agreement.

Section 6.13Specific Performance. Each Party agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the other Party in accordance with the terms hereof or were otherwise breached and that accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions hereof and to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that (a) any other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. No Party shall be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with the seeking of any injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.14Joint Drafting. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 6.15Counterparts.

(i)The Managing Member may, without the consent of the Major Decision Committee, issue in the aggregate up to five percent (5%) of the Effective Date Common Units, so-called “Class B Incentive Units”, to employees and Officers of the Company as part of their compensation, whether or not pursuant to an Approved Incentive Unit Plan, provided that (A) the Class B Incentive Units shall be Profits Interests in all events and accordingly shall be pari passu with the Common Units with respect to any distributions made under Section 4.1(b) (but not Section 4.1(a)), (B) the aggregate number of Class B Incentive Units issued pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) shall not exceed one percent (1%) of the Effective Date Common Units per year after giving effect to all issuances, and (C) any proposed issuance to a member of Island Senior Management shall be subject to Section 5.3. The Class B Incentive Units will carry no consent, approval, veto or other voting rights under this Agreement, and for the avoidance of doubt, are not considered to be Common Units.

(ii)By executing this Agreement, each Member authorizes and directs the Company to elect to have the “Safe Harbor” described in the proposed Revenue Procedure set forth in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-43 (the “Notice”) apply to any interest in the Company transferred to a service provider by the Company on or after the effective date of such Revenue Procedure in connection with services provided to or for the benefit of the Company. For purposes of making such Safe Harbor election, the Managing Member is hereby designated as the “partner who has responsibility for U.S. federal income tax reporting” by the Company and, accordingly, execution of such Safe Harbor election by Managing Member constitutes execution of a “Safe Harbor Election” in accordance with Section 3.03(1)of the Notice. The Company and each Member hereby agree (A) to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all requirements of the Safe Harbor described in the Notice and (B) that each Member shall prepare and file all U.S. federal income tax returns reporting the income tax effects of each Unit issued by the Company that is subject to the Safe Harbor in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Notice. The officers of the Company shall file, or cause the Company to file, all returns, reports and other documentation as may be required to perfect and maintain the Safe Harbor Election with respect to grants of Profits Interests covered by such Safe Harbor Election. It shall be a condition subsequent to the issuance of any unvested Profits Interests of any Member, that such Member makes a timely and proper election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to such unvested Profits Interests. Any issuance of any unvested Profits Interests (whether issued on or after the date hereof) for which a Member fails to make a timely and proper 83(b) election shall be void ab initio

Page 4

unless otherwise determined by the Managing Member. EACH MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE MEMBER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S OR THE MANAGING MEMBER’S (OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES’ OR ADVISOR’S OR REPRESENTATIVES’) TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF THE MEMBER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON SUCH MEMBER’S BEHALF.

Section 2.4Preemptive Rights. Each Initial Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of any Additional Issuances (including any Common Units issued pursuant to Section 2.3(a) and Section 2.3(b)) on the terms, and pursuant to the procedures, set forth on Annex III.

Section 2.5Group Members. If at any time, there is more than one Island Member or more than one NSAM Member, then from and after such time, the following shall apply to the group of members (“Group Members”) constituting Island Member or NSAM Member, as the case may be:

(a)all Group Members shall be treated as one Member holding the aggregate Common Units of all Group Members with respect to all matters under this Agreement and the Group Members shall be jointly and severally liable for the actions of the other Group Members under this Agreement; and

(b)the Group Members shall designate one Group Member (the “Group Agent”) to act as agent for all of the Group Members to give or receive notices for all Group Members hereunder. The Group Members may replace their Group Agent from time to time upon written notice to the other Members. For so long as there is only one Island Member or NSAM Member, such party shall be designated the Group Agent for Island Member and NSAM Member, as applicable. Notices given or received by the Group Agent shall be deemed given or received by all Group Members and shall be binding on all Group Members as if given or received by each of them.

Section 2.6Limitation on Liability. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and none of the direct or indirect equity holders, NSAM Designees, Island Designees, Officers or Affiliates of the Company shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company.

ARTICLE III.

Section 3.3Tax Treatment. The parties to this Agreement intend that the Company be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 7701(a)(2) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to comply with the requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.704 1(b)(2)(iv) and Treas. Reg. §1.704-2 with respect to maintenance of capital accounts and allocations, and will be interpreted and applied accordingly. The parties agree that, for federal income tax purposes, the acquisition of the Common Units pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall be treated, pursuant to Revenue Ruling 99-5, as if the NSAM Member purchased a forty-five percent (45%) undivided interest in each of the Company’s assets, and, immediately thereafter, the NSAM Member and the Island Member contributed their respective interests in the assets to the Company in exchange for their Common Units.

ARTICLE IV.

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 4.1Distributions. Subject to Section 4.2, Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 and subject to the terms of any Units issued after the Effective Date, on each Distribution Date the Company shall make distributions of Distributable Cash Flow to the Members in the following manner and priority:

(a)First, to the Members on a pro rata basis in accordance with each Member’s Unreturned Capital Amount until the Unreturned Capital Amount of each Member is equal to $0; and

(b)Second, to the Members on a pro rata basis in accordance with their Distribution Percentage Interest.

Section 4.2Tax Distributions.

(a)Subject to sufficient cash of the Company being available (as reasonably determined by the Managing Member), the Company shall distribute to each Member, from and to the extent of (and only to the extent of) the Company’s available cash, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the following (any such distribution, a “Tax Distribution”):

(i)the taxable income allocated by the Company to such Member, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including by reason of restructuring transactions implemented by the Company in connection with a Public Offering or sale of the Company) for such Tax Year (reduced by any taxable losses allocated to such Member for U.S. federal income tax purposes in prior years that would have been available to such Member in such Tax Year had its sole source of income been from the Company and all such taxable losses been carried forward (i.e., not carried back)), multiplied by the Tax Rate for such Tax Year; minus

(ii)the aggregate distributions (including distributions under Section 4.1(a)) made by the Company to such Member pursuant to Section 4.1 during such Tax Year; provided, however, that the Managing Member in its reasonable discretion may

Page 6

determine that any distributions made during the first quarter of any year should be treated as if distributed in the immediately preceding year if the distributions, if any, made in such prior year were not sufficient to cover the taxes of the Members due for such year. Such distributions shall be paid with respect to a Tax Year of the Company within ninety (90) days after the end of such Tax Year, or, in the Managing Member’s discretion, at such earlier times as may be determined by the Managing Member so as to enable the Members to pay their quarterly estimated tax payments for such Tax Year.

(b)If, on the date the Company makes any distribution pursuant to this Section 4.2, the Company does not have an amount of available cash sufficient to enable the Company to distribute to all the Members the aggregate amount to which they are entitled pursuant to this Section 4.2, then the Company shall distribute to each Member an amount equal to:

(i)the amount to which such Member is entitled pursuant to this Section 4.2, multiplied by

(ii)a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the Company’s cash and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount to which all the Members are entitled pursuant to this Section 4.2; provided, however, that at such time as the Company may thereafter have sufficient cash to enable the Company to make additional distributions to the Members pursuant to this Section 4.2, as determined by the Managing Member, the Company shall make one or more additional distributions to each Member in accordance with this Section 4.2(b).

(c)Distributions to a Member under this Section 4.2 shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, any amounts otherwise distributable to such Member under Section 4.1 or Section 9.1 or in connection with a Company Sale structured as a direct or indirect Transfer of Units representing one hundred percent (100%) of the total outstanding Equity Interests of the Company.

(d)For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to borrow funds, and no Member shall be required to make any capital contributions to the Company, in order to enable the Company to make any distributions pursuant to this Section 4.2.

Section 4.3Amounts Withheld. The Company shall at all times be entitled to make payments with respect to each Member in amounts required to discharge any obligation of the Company to withhold or make payments to any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority (“Taxing Authority”) with respect to any issuance of Units or distribution or allocation of income or gain to such Member and to withhold (or deduct) the same from distributions to such Member. Any funds withheld from a distribution to a Member by the Company by reason of this Section 4.3 and all taxes incurred directly or indirectly by the Company in respect of a Member shall nonetheless be deemed distributed to such Member for all purposes under this Agreement. If the Company makes any payment to a Taxing Authority or incurs directly or indirectly any tax in respect of a Member hereunder that is not withheld from actual distributions to such Member, then such Member

Page 7

shall (on demand from the Company) reimburse the Company for the amount of such payment (and any such reimbursement shall not constitute a capital contribution hereunder). If the amount of such payment is not reimbursed by the applicable Member within ten (10) Business Days of demand for such reimbursement, such Member shall pay to the Company interest, compounded annually, on such amount from the date of such payment until such amount is repaid to the Company at the Prime Rate (and such payment of interest shall not constitute a capital contribution hereunder). The amount of a Member’s reimbursement obligation under this Section 4.3, to the extent not paid, shall be deducted from the amount of any distributions otherwise payable to such Member by the Company, and any amounts so deducted shall constitute a repayment (to the extent of such deducted amount) of such Member’s obligation hereunder. Each Member’s reimbursement obligation under this Section 4.3 shall continue after such Member transfers its interest in the Company, after a withdrawal by such Member or after dissolution of the Company. Each Member agrees to furnish the Company with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Company to assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, any withholding obligations it may have. Each Member shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company against all claims, liabilities and expenses of whatever nature relating to the Company’s obligation to withhold and to pay over, or otherwise pay, any withholding or other taxes payable by the Company as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company.

Section 4.4Limitations on Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 or Section 18-804 of the Act or any other applicable law. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that distributions to any holder of a Class B Incentive Unit shall be limited to the extent necessary so that each Class B Incentive Unit constitutes a Profits Interest.

Section 4.5Treatment of Capital Contributions. No Member shall be entitled to receive any interest on such Member’s capital contributions nor shall any Member be entitled to demand the return of all or any part of such capital contributions.

ARTICLE V.

MANAGEMENT

Subject to the right of the Major Decision Committee to consent to Major Decisions in accordance with Section 5.3 and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Managing Member shall have complete and exclusive authority to manage, control, administer, and operate the business and affairs of the Company, and shall make all decisions affecting such business and affairs. Island Member shall be the Managing Member so long as no Island Member Default has occurred (and upon the occurrence of an Island Member Default the Managing Member shall be selected pursuant to Section 5.7(a)). The Managing Member shall be deemed a “manager” (within the meaning of Section 18-101 of the Act) of the Company; and in such capacity, the Managing Member shall have fiduciary duties of loyalty and care equivalent to any such duties which would apply to managers of limited liability companies organized under the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware.

Page 8

of the Major Decision Committee) shall have any fiduciary duties of loyalty and care to the Company or any Member.

Section 5.2Officers.

(a)Subject to Section 5.2(d), the Managing Member may from time to time appoint officers of the Company (together with the officers of any Subsidiary of the Company, “Officers”) who shall exercise such powers and perform such duties as shall be delegated from time to time by the Managing Member. Any number of offices may be held by the same person. The initial Officers of the Company are listed on EXHIBIT B. Any Officer may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the Managing Member. The Managing Member shall provide prompt notice of any change to the Officers of the Company to the Members.

(b)The Officers, to the extent of the powers delegated to them by the Managing Member, are agents of the Company for the purpose of the Company’s business, and the actions of the Officers taken in accordance with such powers shall bind the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Officer shall be authorized to take any action that constitutes a Major Decision unless such Major Decision has been approved by the Major Decision Committee in accordance with Section 5.3.

(c)Each Officer shall have fiduciary duties of loyalty and care equivalent to any such duties which would apply to officers of business corporations organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Members agree that the appointment of any president, chief executive officer or equivalent position at the Company by the Managing Member shall constitute a Major Decision under this Agreement for purposes of Section 5.3; provided, however, the members of the Major Decision Committee appointed by the NSAM Member shall not withhold their approval of any such Person on the basis of the compensation that the Managing Member proposes be paid to such Person in the year of hire, provided that such compensation does not exceed the Compensation Cap.

Section 5.3Major Decisions.

(a)Subject to Section 5.7, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall undertake, and neither the Managing Member nor any Officer shall authorize or approve (or cause or permit the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to undertake), any Major Decision unless such Major Decision has been approved by the Major Decision Committee. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no member of the Major Decision Committee (solely in its capacity as a member of the Major Decision Committee) shall have any fiduciary duties of loyalty and/or care to the Company or any Member.

Page 9

(b)A Major Decision shall be approved by the Major Decision Committee if (i) a majority of the Major Decision Committee members vote in favor of such Major Decision, and (ii) both of the NSAM Designees vote in favor of such Major Decision.

(c)The “Major Decision Committee” shall consist of the following five (5) members:

(i)the Principal (who, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be deemed appointed by the Island Member for all purposes pursuant to this Agreement),

(ii)two persons appointed by Island Member (provided that any person appointed by Island Member under this clause (ii) may be removed (with or without cause) and replaced by Island Member at any time), and

(iii)two persons appointed by NSAM Member (the “NSAM Designees”) (provided that (x) the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent) of NSAM shall at all times be one of the NSAM Designees and (y) any other person appointed by NSAM Member may be removed (with or without cause) and replaced by NSAM Member at any time).

If any member of the Major Decision Committee appointed by Island Member is removed or replaced, then Island Member shall provide prompt notice of such removal and replacement to NSAM Member. If any member of the Major Decision Committee appointed by NSAM Member is removed or replaced, then NSAM Member shall provide prompt notice of such removal and replacement to Island Member.

(d)Subject to Section 5.7(a), if after the fifth (5th) annual anniversary of the Effective Date, a dispute arises between any of the members of the Major Decision Committee appointed by NSAM Member, on the one hand, and the members of the Major Decision Committee appointed by Island Member, on the other hand, with respect to any Company Sale Trigger Major Decisions, then provided that the applicable dispute shall not have been resolved after sixty (60) days of good faith negotiation between the members of the Major Decision Committee designated by Island Member and the members of the Major Decision Committee designated by NSAM Member (the “MD Dispute Resolution Period”), Island Member may elect, by delivering written notice to such effect to NSAM Member on or prior to the expiration of the MD Company Sale Trigger Period, to effectuate a Company Sale to any Company Purchaser pursuant to the Company Sale Procedures described in Annex IX (in which case Island Member shall be the Initiating Seller for purposes of the Company Sale Procedures). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Island Member elects to effectuate a Company Sale pursuant to this Section 5.3(d), (A) Island Member’s election shall be irrevocable and (B) NSAM Member shall have the right to concede its position with respect to the dispute giving rise to the Company Sale during the ROFO Election Period.

(a)Attached hereto as EXHIBIT C is the operating budget and certain other approved matters for the Company and its Subsidiaries for Fiscal Year 2015 (the “2015 Budget”).

(b)The Managing Member shall reasonably promptly following the Effective Date submit to the Major Decision Committee a proposed complete Business Plan for the Fiscal Year 2015, containing, at a minimum, the components and detail described on EXHIBIT G; and the members of the Major Decision Committee shall cooperate in good faith to approve the Business Plan for such Fiscal Year prior to the date that is forty-five (45) days from the Effective Date (the “2015 BP Approval Deadline”) (or as soon as reasonably practicable before the 2015 BP Approval Deadline). During the period from the Effective Date through the date that the members of the Major Decision Committee have actually approved a Business Plan for such Fiscal Year (the “Interim Period”), the Managing Member shall operate the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the 2015 Budget. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members acknowledge and agree that, during the Interim Period, to the extent that any decision, approval or other matter is made by reference to the Approved Business Plan, then unless such action has been expressly approved in the 2015 Budget, the Managing Member shall not have the right to make the underlying decision or take the underlying action unless NSAM Member approval has been obtained.

(c)Commencing with respect to Fiscal Year 2016, the Managing Member shall submit to the Major Decision Committee (i) by October 15 of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, a preliminary draft of a proposed Business Plan containing at a minimum the preliminary budget for the corporate operating and overhead expenses (including general and administrative expenses) and anticipated revenues for the Company and each Subsidiary and (ii) by November 30 of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, a full proposed Business Plan for the Company and each Subsidiary. Members of the Major Decision Committee shall cooperate in good faith to approve a Business Plan for each Fiscal Year prior to January 31 of that Fiscal Year. If a Business Plan with respect to any Fiscal Year is not approved by January 31 of that Fiscal Year, then the most recent Approved Business Plan shall continue to be in effect; provided, however, that the Approved Business Plan may be reasonably adjusted by the Managing Member to reflect, without duplication, (i) increases and decreases in general and administrative costs that are reasonably proportional to changes in the number of hotels being managed by the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) adjustments due to inflation (or deflation) as reflected in changes to the CPI during the preceding Fiscal Year, (iii) Third Party Vendor Adjustments, (iv) ordinary course increases in Island Payroll Costs (other than those considered a “Major Decision” pursuant to this Agreement), and (v) reasonable and reasonably proportional increases in budgeted corporate operating and overhead costs resulting from an increase in the number of hotels managed by the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in making the foregoing adjustments, the following shall apply: (x) the Managing Member shall also reasonably and reasonably proportionately reduce the budgeted corporate operating and overhead costs resulting from any decrease in the number of hotels managed

Page 11

by the Company and its Subsidiaries; (y) in no event shall any of the cost increases described in clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and/or (v) of the prior sentence of this Section 5.4(c) be permitted without approval of the Major Decision Committee if incurring such costs would be reasonably likely to reduce the Company’s top-line profit margin by more than ten percent (10%) for the applicable Fiscal Year, and (z) in no event shall any amounts set aside for capital expenditures approved pursuant to any prior Approved Business Plan be carried-over to any subsequent year without the approval of the Major Decision Committee.

(d)Nothing in any Business Plan or in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Managing Member to incur Necessary Expenses, to the extent reasonably necessary under the circumstances, without the approval of the Major Decision Committee so long as NSAM Member is promptly notified of the incurrence of such expenses.

(e)Any proposed revision to an Approved Business Plan shall be submitted to the Major Decision Committee for its approval in accordance with Section 5.3, and upon approval of such revision in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 5.4, the Approved Business Plan, as so revised, shall thereafter constitute the Approved Business Plan for the period covered thereby; provided no revision shall be required to be submitted or approved to the extent the Managing Member is acting within the parameters of a Permitted Variance.

(f)EXHIBIT F attached hereto sets forth the current allocation of amounts between the Company (or its Subsidiaries) and the parties utilizing the Shared Services. The Managing Member may continue to provide the Shared Services on the same or substantially similar terms and conditions as in effect on the Effective Date and consistent with past practice. The Managing Member shall reasonably allocate the Shared Services between the Company (and its Subsidiaries) and the parties receiving the Shared Services. Payment shall be due from such parties by the end of the month following the payment for such Shared Services being made by the Company (or its Subsidiaries). If a party fails to pay any amounts due with respect to such Shared Services, then, after a thirty (30) day cure period (the “SS Cure Period”), the Managing Member shall require the parties utilizing the Shared Services to make payments directly to the Shared Services providers going forward and cause the parties utilizing the Shared Services to enter into such arrangements with the Shared Services providers as necessary so that the Shared Services are thereafter provided to such parties by such Shared Services providers pursuant to separate arrangements (provided that the Managing Member shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all costs of division of any such Shared Services to be paid by the applicable defaulting party(ies)). In all events, Managing Member shall ensure that any party utilizing the Shared Services does not have access to any sensitive, confidential, proprietary or other significant information or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries. The Managing Member shall provide the NSAM Member with such information about the terms and conditions, and the costs of providing the Shared Services, as the NSAM Member may reasonably request from time to time.

Page 12

(g)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Members acknowledge and agree that the payment of any future incentive management, promote or similar fee with respect to any Related Party Asset that is first managed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date shall be specifically agreed upon by the Initial Members.

Section 5.5Other Activities of NSAM Member.

(a)NSAM Member (and any Affiliate thereof or other NSAM Entity) may own, purchase, sell, or otherwise deal in any manner with any investments that directly compete with, may otherwise conflict with, or involve a business opportunity that may be beneficial to, the interests and business of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries without notice to and without participation of the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or any other Member, and without liability of any kind or nature whatsoever.

(b)NSAM Member does not violate a duty or obligation to the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries merely because the conduct of NSAM Member furthers the interests of NSAM Member (and/or any of its Affiliates or any other NSAM Entity).

The Company, its Subsidiaries and any other Member expressly acknowledge that NSAM Member will not be obligated to inform or present to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member any such competitive transaction or business opportunity and none of the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Member will be entitled to acquire, on account of the transaction by NSAM Member an interest or participation in any such other competitive transaction or business opportunity.

(i)NSAM Member (and/or any of its Affiliates or any other NSAM Entity) may from time to time acquire or possess knowledge of a competitive transaction or business opportunity in which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company could have an interest (each an “NSAM Opportunity”) and may exploit any such NSAM Opportunity or otherwise engage in or possess an interest in any business venture that is competitive with the activities of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company;

(ii)neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company shall have an interest in such NSAM Opportunity or expectation that such NSAM Opportunity be offered to it, any such interest or expectation being hereby renounced so that NSAM Member (and/or any of its Affiliates or any other NSAM Entity));

Page 13

(A)shall have no duty to communicate or present any such NSAM Opportunity to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member;

(B)shall have the right to hold any such NSAM Opportunity for their own account, or recommend, assign or otherwise transfer such NSAM Opportunity to Persons other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member; and

(C)shall not be liable to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member for pursuing or acquiring such NSAM Opportunity for themselves, for recommending, assigning or otherwise transferring such NSAM Opportunity to another Person, for not informing or presenting such NSAM Opportunity to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member, or for engaging in or possessing an interest in any business venture that is competitive with the activities of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.5 shall not limit or affect the rights or obligations of NSAM, or the rights of the Company, under the NSAM Non-Competition Agreement and any rights or obligations of the NSAM Member and/or its Affiliates contained herein shall be subject in all events to the terms of the NSAM Non-Competition Agreement.

Section 5.6Other Activities of Island Member.

(a)Subject to compliance with the other applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement, (i) Island Member (in its capacity as Member) does not violate a duty or obligation to the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries merely because the conduct of Island Member furthers the interests of Island Member (and/or any of its Affiliates), (ii) no transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall be void or voidable solely because Island Member (and/or any of its Affiliates) has a direct or indirect interest in the transaction, (iii) the Company, its Subsidiaries and any other Member expressly acknowledge that Island Member will not be obligated to inform or present to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member with respect to any Island Opportunity and (iv) none of the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Member will be entitled to acquire, on account of the transaction by Island Member an interest or participation with respect to any Island Opportunity.

(b)Subject to compliance with the other applicable terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries) and any other Member expressly acknowledge and agree that (i) Island Member and its respective Affiliates may from time to time acquire or possess knowledge of a competitive transaction or business opportunity that is not a Restricted Opportunity, in which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company could have an interest (each an “Island Opportunity”) and may exploit any such Island Opportunity or otherwise engage in or possess an interest in any business venture relating to any such Island Opportunity and (ii) neither the Company nor

Page 14

any Subsidiary of the Company shall have an interest in such Island Opportunity or expectation that such Island Opportunity be offered to it, any such interest or expectation being hereby renounced so that Island Member and its respective Affiliates (A) shall have no duty to communicate or present any such Island Opportunity to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member, (B) shall have the right to hold any such Island Opportunity for their own account, or recommend, assign or otherwise transfer such Island Opportunity to Persons other than the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member and (C) shall not be liable to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member for pursuing or acquiring such Island Opportunity for themselves, for recommending, assigning or otherwise transferring such Island Opportunity to another Person, for not informing or presenting such Island Opportunity to the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any other Member, or for engaging in or possessing an interest in an Island Opportunity.

(c)For avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Island Member shall, andshall cause its controlled Affiliates to, offer Restricted Opportunities to this Company, and Section 5.6(a) and Section 5.6(b) shall not apply to Restricted Opportunities; provided, however, that neither Island Member nor any Affiliate of Island Member shall have any obligation to share with the Company Restricted Opportunities that relate to the provision of Management Services to Chatham (or its Affiliates or other Subsidiaries) if sharing such Restricted Opportunities would reasonably be expected to violate, in the Principal’s reasonable judgment exercised in good faith, the Principal’s duties as Chief Executive Officer, President and/or Chairman of Chatham.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.6 shall not limit or affect the rights or obligations of Island Member, the Principal and/or their respective Affiliates under the Fisher Non-Competition Agreement and any rights or obligations of the Island Member (or the rights of NSAM), the Principal and/or their respective Affiliates contained herein shall be subject in all events to the terms of the Fisher Non-Competition Agreement.

(e)Nothing in this Agreement shall limit Principal’s ability to serve as Chief Executive Officer, President and/or Chairman of Chatham or to take any actions consistent with his obligations as such.

Section 5.7Member Default.

(a)If an Island Member Default occurs, then provided NSAM Member complies with Section 5.8, NSAM Member may (but shall not be obligated to) exercise any or all of the following rights from time to time (provided Island Member acknowledges the following rights and remedies are cumulative and may be enforced by NSAM Member separately from time to time or together at the same time in such manner as NSAM Member determines, and no delay in the exercise of such rights shall be deemed a waiver thereof or of any other right):

Page 15

(i)Any members of the Major Decision Committee appointed by Island Member (including Principal), any Officers appointed by Island Member and all other Island Designees shall be deemed immediately removed from their respective positions (provided that if requested by NSAM Member, any or all of the Officers appointed by Island Member shall remain in their designated positions for a reasonable transition period).

(ii)Island Member shall be deemed immediately removed as the Managing Member, and Island Member shall have no further right to act as the Managing Member or to appoint any members of the Major Decision Committee, any Officers of the Company or any Subsidiary and/or any other Island Designee.

(iii)NSAM Member shall have the right to appoint a replacement Managing Member, and any reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by NSAM Member in connection with the making of such appointment shall be charged to the Company as expenses of the Company.

(A)control all matters, decisions, and things under this Agreement or with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (including Major Decisions),

(C)cause the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company to take any action (other than an action that this Agreement expressly states requires the approval of the Island Member (in its capacity as member and not in its capacity as Managing Member or as a party with the right to appoint members to the Major Decisions Committee) or of all of the Members generally (in their capacity as members and not in their capacity as the parties who have the right to appoint members of the Major Decisions Committee)).

Page 17

(iii)Any distributions to which NSAM Member is entitled to receive shall be deemed distributed to NSAM Member and paid by the Company to Island Member to the extent of any direct or indirect losses, costs, damages or liabilities that the Expedited Arbitration Proceeding expressly determines to have been incurred or sustained by Island Member as a result of such NSAM Member Default; provided, however, if an NSAM Member Default occurs due to the occurrence of an NSAM Minimum Ownership Failure Event, this clause (iii) of this Section 5.7(b) shall not apply.; and/or

Section 5.8Arbitration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.7, if a Member believes a Member Default has occurred, then prior to exercising any of its rights for a Member Default pursuant to Section 5.7, it shall be required to comply with the following procedures:

(c)If the Member delivers a Removal Dispute Notice, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to an Expedited Arbitration Proceeding.

Page 19

individual shall be subject to the approval of the NSAM Member; provided, however, if such individual is a Qualified Successor, then the consent of the NSAM Member shall not be required.

The Island Member also acknowledges receipt of a sample audit request deliverables checklist provided by the NSAM Member for the Island Member’s review. The NSAM Member acknowledges and agrees that not all of the items listed thereon may be applicable to the Island Member and the Company, but the Island Member agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or otherwise make available the items listed thereon to the extent applicable and requested by any NSAM Entity’s auditor. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary set forth herein, the NSAM Member agrees to engage NSAM Entity’s auditor at its sole cost and expense and to reimburse the Island Member for its fees and expenses actually charged by the Island Member’s auditor in assisting any NSAM Entity’s auditor with the foregoing audit and SEC Filings (not to include the cost of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements or other fees or expenses which the Island Member would have incurred regardless of the foregoing audit and SEC filing requirements). The Island Member shall provide all of the foregoing information, documentation and other items reasonably necessary to complete any such SEC Filings as soon as practicable but in all events with sufficient time to permit the NSAM Entities to complete any SEC Filings.

(a)The Company will to the fullest extent permitted by law indemnify any Person (an “Indemnitee”) who is or was involved in any manner (including as a party or a witness) or is threatened to be made so involved in any threatened, pending or completed investigation, claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including any action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such Person is or was or had agreed to be a member of the Major Decision Committee, or an officer (including an Officer), employee, trustee, Representative or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or is or was serving at the request of the Managing Member or an officer (including an Officer) of the Company as a member of a governing body, officer, employee, trustee, Representative or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or by reason of anything done or not done by such Person in any such capacity, against all out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, and the indemnification provided for herein will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee may be entitled under any agreement, and will continue as to a Person who has ceased to be a member of the Major Decision Committee, or an officer (including an Officer), employee, trustee, Representative or agent and will inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such Person, provided that in no event shall the Company have any liability or obligation hereunder or otherwise to any Indemnitee who has been finally judicially determined to have breached any obligation under the Act (to the extent applicable to the Company) or this Agreement or who has committed any fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence in connection with the performance of such Indemnitee’s duties hereunder or in respect of any claim brought by any Indemnitee other than to enforce his or her rights hereunder.

(b)If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder is not paid in full by the Company within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Company, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and if successful in whole or in part, the Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid the reasonable expenses of prosecuting such claim. Neither the failure of the Company (including the Managing Member) to have made its determination, prior to the commencement of such action, that indemnification of, or advancement of costs of defense to, the Indemnitee is permissible in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Company (including the Managing Member) that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible will be a defense to the action or create a presumption that such indemnification or advancement is not permissible. Such indemnification will be a contract right and will include the right to receive payment of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as they are incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding, consistent with the provisions of applicable law as then in effect.

Page 29

(c)The right of indemnification provided in this Section 8.1 shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which any such Person seeking indemnification may otherwise be entitled under any other instrument or by reason of any action or otherwise.

(d)The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

DURATION AND TERMINATION OF THE COMPANY

(a)The Company shall be dissolved and its business wound up upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i)the decision by the Managing Member, subject to the approval of the Major Decision Committee in accordance with Section 5.3 if required; or

(ii)by judicial decree in accordance with Section 18-802 of the Act.

(b)In the event of the dissolution of the Company, there shall be an orderly liquidation of the Company Assets, unless the Managing Member determines that an immediate sale of all or part of the Company Assets would cause undue loss to the Members, in which event

(i)the liquidation may be deferred for a reasonable time except as to those assets necessary to satisfy the Company debts and the Members shall be deemed to have elected to reconstitute the Company for such period, or

(ii)all or part of the Company Assets may be distributed in kind, subject to the provisions of and in the same manner as cash under the applicable provisions of this Section 9.1. If Company Assets are distributed in kind, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the Book gain or loss (if any) that would have been recognized by the Company if those assets had been sold for an amount equal to their Fair Market Value at the time of distribution.

(c)Upon any dissolution of the Company, the Company’s Accountant shall prepare a statement setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Company as of the date of dissolution, and such statement shall be furnished to all Members.

(d)In the event of liquidation of the Company Assets, and subject to Section 9.1(b), the Company Assets shall be liquidated as promptly as possible and the Managing Member shall appoint a Member to supervise such liquidation (the “Liquidating Member”), which shall be conducted in an orderly and business-like manner so as not to involve undue sacrifice, as the Liquidating Member shall determine in its reasonable

Page 30

discretion. The proceeds thereof shall be applied and distributed in the following order of priority:

(i)for the payment of the debts and liabilities of the Company (including any debts and liabilities owed to the Members and their Affiliates) and the expenses of liquidation;

(ii)to the setting up of any reserves which the Liquidating Member reasonably may deem necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company arising out of or in connection with the Company. Said reserves may be paid over by the Liquidating Member to an escrow agent to be held by it for the purpose of disbursing such reserves in payment of any of the aforementioned contingencies and, at the expiration of such period as the Liquidating Member shall deem advisable, to distribute the balance of such reserves to the Members as provided below; and

(iii)thereafter, the remaining proceeds, if any, shall be applied and distributed to the Members in accordance with the positive balances of the Members’ Capital Accounts, as determined after taking into account all adjustments to Capital Accounts for the Company taxable year during which the liquidation occurs, by the end of such taxable year or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation; provided that the Members intend that liquidating distributions shall be made in the same manner as distributions under Section 4.1 and the provisions of Article III and Annex IV shall be interpreted in a manner that achieves this result.

(e)No dissolution of the Company shall release or relieve the Members of their obligations under ARTICLE VIII or ARTICLE IX or Section 10.3, Section 10.4, Section 10.12, Section 10.14, Section 10.15 and Section 10.16 of this Agreement.

Section 9.2Effect of Retirement, Withdrawal, Bankruptcy, Dissolution, Death, Etc. of a Member.

Section 10.13Time Periods.

(a)Each Member recognizes that Confidential Information may have been and may be disclosed to such Member by the Company. By executing this Agreement, each Member expressly agrees that, at all times during the term of the Company and thereafter and whether or not at that time it is a Member of the Company, such Member shall maintain in strict confidence, shall not disclose to any Person other than the Company or another Member, and shall not give, sell or use (other than in connection with Company purposes), any Confidential Information, except to provide such Confidential Information to its Representatives (solely to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to such Member’s monitoring, analyzing and managing the Company or its investment therein). As used herein, “Confidential Information” means confidential information, trade secrets and other proprietary information belonging to the Company, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates that are not generally known to the public, including information concerning this Agreement, business plans, financial statements and other information provided pursuant hereto, operating practices and methods, expansion plans, strategic plans, marketing plans, contracts, customer lists or other business documents which the Company and its Subsidiaries treat as confidential or proprietary. Nothing in this Section 10.14 shall prohibit any Member or any of its Affiliates from disclosing the terms of this Agreement to its counsel or any court or other Governmental Authority in connection with the enforcement by such Member of this Agreement.

(b)The foregoing agreements shall not apply to any Confidential Information that

(i)is or becomes publicly available through no fault of such Member or any Person with whom such Member shared Confidential Information,

(ii)is received from a Third Party and not, to the knowledge of such Member, through violation of any confidentiality agreement or

(iii)is independently obtained by such Member without use of or reference to the Confidential Information.

Page 36

Furthermore, Section 10.14(a) shall not apply to any Confidential Information if a Member reasonably determines that the release or disclosure of such Confidential Information is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the making of regulatory filings (on behalf of itself or the Company or their respective Affiliates) or required under any law, rule or regulation, or if either party is reasonably advised by its counsel that it is legally obligated to release the Confidential Information; provided, however, that if such Member is requested or required to disclose any such information pursuant to Order or any other applicable legal procedure, it shall provide the Company with prompt written notice thereof so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective Order at the sole cost and expense of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, NSAM Member may disclose Confidential Information if, in the reasonable opinion of NSAM Member’s legal counsel, such disclosure is necessary or appropriate under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or under the rules of, or any listing agreement with, any applicable national securities exchange, trading market or listing authority, in which event NSAM Member must provide Company and Island Member, on a basis reasonable and under the circumstances, a meaningful opportunity to review and comment upon such disclosure prior to its release.

(a)not include any Confidential Information,

(b)be general in nature (it being agreed that disclosures of the nature of the investment made pursuant to such transactions shall be permitted), and

(c)be reviewed by the other Initial Member, whose comments thereto shall be considered in good faith and made in a manner that is reasonably satisfactory to the other Initial Member (and if the Initial Member issuing the press release is the Island Member, then any press release or other similar public announcement shall be subject to the approval of the NSAM Member).

Section 10.16Remedies; Specific Performance.

(a)Except as otherwise provided herein, no remedy herein conferred or reserved is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every remedy under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

(b)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Member acknowledges and agrees that its respective remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach

Page 37

of any of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of that fact, agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by any Member of the provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Member shall, without posting any bond or proof of damages, be entitled to seek equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

Section 10.17Benefits of Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, is intended or shall be construed to give to any creditor of the Company or to any creditor of any Member or any other Person, other than the Members and the Company, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenant, condition or provisions herein contained, and such provisions are and shall be held to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Members and the Company.

Section 10.18Duties of the Members. Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Member shall have any duties or obligations (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, any Member or any other Person except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

Annex III

Preemptive Rights

(1)Each Initial Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of any Additional Interests to be issued by the Company on the terms set forth in this Annex III (such right, a “Preemptive Right”). The Company shall give each Initial Member at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such proposed issuance (such 30-day period, the “Additional Issuance Period”) describing in reasonable detail the aggregate amount of capital to be raised by such issuance, the contemplated date of issuance, the purpose of such issuance, the issue price, and any other material terms and conditions upon which the Company proposes to issue such Additional Interests (“Additional Issuance Notice”).

(2)Each Initial Member shall be entitled to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of such Additional Interests by delivering a written subscription notice (a “Subscription Notice”) to the Company on or prior to the date that the Additional Issuance Period expires. Concurrently with such notice to the Company, the Initial Member exercising its Preemptive Right shall inform the other Initial Member as to whether such Initial Member intends to purchase all or any portion of its Pro Rata Share of such Additional Interests, including the amount of such Additional Interests it intends to purchase. In the event that any Initial Member elects not to purchase its full Pro Rata Share of Additional Interests, the other Initial Member shall have the right to make the following additional elections (the “Additional Participating Member Election”): (i) provided that the other Initial Member subscribed for its full Pro Rata Share (the “Fully Participating Member”), such Fully Participating Member may purchase any or all of the remaining portion of such Additional Interests on the same terms and conditions (the “Excess Interests”) and (ii) regardless of whether or not the other Initial Member subscribed for its full Pro Rata Share, the other Initial Member shall have the right to modify its prior election to participate in such Additional Issuance pursuant to the terms set forth in its prior Subscription Notice by reducing the number of Additional Interests by an amount of up to the Additional Issuance Delta. The Company shall deliver written notice to each Initial Member indicating the number of Additional Interests the other Initial Member has elected to subscribe for (and, if applicable, the Excess Interests available); and if an Initial Member has the right to make an Additional Participating Member Election, such Initial Member shall have five (5) Business Days from the delivery of such notice to make such election by delivering a modified Subscription Notice to the Company and the other Initial Member. The parties agree that any modified Subscription Notice delivered by an Initial Member pursuant to the prior sentence shall supersede any prior Subscription Notice delivered by such Initial Member with respect to the Additional Issuance in question.

(3)If any portion of the proposed Additional Interests to be issued remains unsubscribed after giving effect to the Members’ subscriptions pursuant to Section 2 of this Annex III, the Company shall have one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of delivery by the Company of the Additional Issuance Notice to sell such remaining Additional Interests, upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than the terms specified in the Additional Issuance Notice. If the Company has not sold such Additional Interests within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, the Company shall not have the right to make the applicable Additional Issuance unless both Initial Members so agree (provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Fully Participating Member shall have the

Annex III - Page 1

unilateral right, but not the obligation, to request that its portion of such Additional Issuance be made notwithstanding the fact that such Additional Issuance has not been fully subscribed for and/or shall have the right to require that, as an alternative to funding its capital as equity, such capital shall be funded in the form of a Company Loan (in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 below). In addition, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any Additional Interests pursuant to a subsequent Additional Issuance without first receiving approval (to the extent required) with respect to such Additional Interests from the Major Decision Committee in accordance with Section 5.3 and offering such Additional Interests to the Members in accordance with this Annex III.

(4)If an Initial Member elects not to exercise its Preemptive Right with respect to any issuance of Additional Interests, such election shall not constitute a waiver of such Member’s right to participate in any subsequent Additional Issuance.

(5)There shall be no liability on the part of the Company, the Managing Member, the Major Decision Committee or any Member (including NSAM Member) if the issuance of Additional Interests is not consummated for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of whether to issue Additional Interests shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Managing Member, subject to approval (to the extent required) of the Major Decision Committee in accordance with Section 5.3; provided, however, the approval of NSAM Member shall be required for any Additional Issuance that would result in any increase in the Percentage Interests of NSAM Member.

(6)Consideration payable in respect of Additional Interests will be made in United States Dollars when due by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by the Company unless otherwise approved by the Major Decision Committee as a Major Decision.

(7)In the event any Fully Participating Member elects to make an unsecured loan to the Company (a “Company Loan”) in accordance with Section 3, such Company Loan shall not be treated as a capital contribution by such Fully Participating Member and accordingly shall not increase the Distribution Percentage Interests of such Member. Instead, any such Company Loan shall be a debt of the Company. Any Company Loan shall (i) bear interests at a rate equal to six percent (6%) per annum (calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year based on the number of days elapsed), compounded monthly and (ii) shall be repaid by the Company prior to any distributions made to the Members pursuant to ARTICLE IV and ARTICLE IX.

If any Member unexpectedly receives any Account Reduction Item that results in an Excess Deficit Balance at the end of any Tax Year after taking into account all other allocations and adjustments under this Agreement other than allocations under this Section 4, then items of Book income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) will be reallocated to each such Member in the amount and in the proportions needed to eliminate such Excess Deficit Balance as quickly as possible.

Annex IV - Page 3

(iv)Gross Income Allocation. If, at the end of any Tax Year, the Capital Accounts of any Members have Excess Deficit Balances after taking into account all other allocations and adjustments under this Agreement, then items of Book income and gain for such year will be reallocated to such Members in the amount and in the proportions needed to eliminate such Excess Deficit Balances as quickly as possible.

(5)Other Allocations. If during any Tax Year of the Company there is a change in any Member’s Units, allocations of Book income or loss for such Tax Year will take into account the varying interests of the Members in the Company in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 706 of the Code, using the interim closing of the books method or such other method as shall be reasonably approved by the Managing Member.

(6)Allocation of Tax Items.

(a)In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction will be allocated among the Members for U.S. federal income tax purposes in the same manner as the corresponding allocation for Book purposes.

(b)Section 704(c) Allocations.  If the Book Value of an item of Company property differs from its Tax Basis, allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization, gain and loss with respect to such property will be made for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a manner that takes account of the variation between the Tax Basis and Book Value of such property in accordance with Section 704(c)(1)(A) of the Code and Treas. Reg. § l.704-1(b)(4)(i).  The Managing Member may select any reasonable method or methods for making such allocations; provided that curative allocations shall be made to offset the effects of the ceiling rule, if any, on allocations of depreciation or amortization in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(c). The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) NSAM Member’s Tax Basis in (x) its 45% undivided interest in the properties deemed acquired by NSAM Member and contributed to the Company for federal income tax purposes, and (y) amounts contributed by the NSAM Member to the Company as working capital, include (A) the deemed purchase price of $37.8 million paid by the NSAM Member, (B) the NSAM Member’s share of the contributed working capital amounting to $900,000, (C) the NSAM Member’s share of transaction costs amounting to $2,290,950, each as shown on the closing settlement statement (plus any associated liabilities and additional amounts that the parties subsequently determine are properly includible in that Tax Basis), and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph 6(b) shall apply to the resulting variation between NSAM Member’s Tax Basis and the Book Value of the properties deemed contributed by NSAM Member, as well as the variation between the Island Member’s Tax Basis and the Book Value of the properties deemed contributed by the Island Member.

(c)Tax Credits. Tax credits will be allocated among the Members in accordance with Treas. Reg. § l.704-1(b)(4)(ii).

Reg. §§ 1.752-3(a)(3) and 1.707-5(a)(2)(ii), and solely for such purpose, any Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities shall be allocated (i) first, to each Member up to the amount of built-in gain that is allocable to such Member with respect to any asset of the Company the Book Value of which differs from its adjusted tax basis, and (ii) second, any remaining Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities shall be allocated among the Members pro rata in proportion to their respective Distribution Percentage Interests.

(b)Company Indebtedness.

Reg. § 1.704-2(h)(3).

(ii)If (A) the Company makes a distribution that would (but for this Section 7(c)(ii)) be treated as a Member Nonrecourse Distribution and (B) such distribution does not cause or increase a deficit balance in the Capital Account of the Member receiving such distribution as of the end of the Company’s Tax Year in which such distribution occurs, then the Company may treat such distribution as not constituting a Member Nonrecourse Distribution to the extent permitted by Treas.

(a)if such Transfer is structured as a sale of Units, Transfer, or cause to be Transferred, to the Company Purchaser all of the Units held by the Dragged Members at the same price and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Initiating Seller, or

(b)if such Transfer is structured as a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,

(i)cause its representatives on the Major Decision Committee vote in favor of such transaction, if applicable,

(ii)waive dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights, if any, which the Dragged Members may have in connection therewith and

(iii) take such other action as may be reasonably required to complete the transaction.

(2)The rights of the Initiating Seller under Section 7.6 and this Annex IX shall be exercisable by written notice (a “Drag Along Notice”) delivered by the Initiating Seller to Dragged Members prior to the execution of a definitive agreement with regard to such Company Sale, which shall state (A) that the Initiating Seller proposes to effect a Company Sale, (B) the proposed purchase price to be paid by the Company Purchaser for the Units to be Transferred (or for substantially all of the Company’s assets), (C) the identity of the Company Purchaser and (D) the other principal terms of the Company Sale. The Drag-Along Notice shall be treated as a ROFR Notice, and the Dragged Member shall have a ROFR Right permitting it to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Initiating Seller’s Units at the same price and on the same terms as stated in the Drag Along Notice by complying with the procedures set forth in Annex VI (modified mutatis mutandis) (“Drag Along ROFR Right”). If the Dragged Member elects to exercise its Drag Along ROFR Right, the Company Sale shall be terminated. The Initiating Seller shall not consummate the Company Sale

set forth in the Drag-Along Notice until expiration of the ROFR Purchase Notice Deadline as it applies to such Drag-Along Notice in connection with the Drag Along ROFR Right.

(3)If the Dragged Member does not exercise its Drag Along ROFR Right, prior to or in connection with the closing of any such proposed Company Sale, each Dragged Member shall execute any purchase agreement or other certificates, instruments and other agreements required to consummate the proposed Company Sale, including the provision of, and representation and warranty as to, information requested by the Company Purchaser from the Initiating Seller and the provision of requisite indemnifications to the Company Purchaser; provided, however, that (i) any such purchase agreement or other certificates, instruments and other agreements shall be on terms no less favorable to the Dragged Members than those executed by the Initiating Seller in connection with such Company Sale except as a result of different rights of the Units; (ii) any indemnification provided to the Company Purchaser by the Initiating Seller and by the Dragged Members shall be made on a several (but not joint) basis in accordance with the portion of the aggregate consideration payable in connection with such Company Sale to be paid to such Dragged Members (except in the case of indemnifications arising as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty relating specifically to a particular seller, which shall be borne solely by such seller) and shall be limited, with respect to each Dragged Member, to the aggregate consideration payable in connection with such Company Sale to be paid to such Dragged Member; (iii) no Dragged Member shall be required to make any representations or warranties other than representations and warranties pertaining to organization, power, authority, enforceability and ownership; (iv) no Dragged Member shall be required to enter into any non-competition, non-solicitation or other similar restrictive covenants (other than customary confidentiality covenants); and (v) no Dragged Member shall be required to agree to any term that purports to bind such Dragged Member or an Affiliate of such Dragged Member (other than to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Annex IX). At the closing of any such proposed Company Sale, the Dragged Members shall deliver to the Company Purchaser (x) such instruments of transfer as shall be reasonably requested by the Company Purchaser with respect to the Units to be Transferred, against receipt of the purchase price therefor in such Company Sale (subject to any holdbacks, escrows or adjustments in purchase price) and (y) the Dragged Members’ Units in the Company, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or under applicable securities laws). In connection with a Company Sale, the Initiating Seller and Dragged Members shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents from Third Parties and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the Company Sale. The proceeds of the Company Sale shall be allocated amongst the Members as if such proceeds were distributed to them in accordance with Section 4.1.

(4)In the event that a Company Sale is effectuated through a business combination (whether by way of merger, recapitalization or otherwise) or asset sale, the Members shall take, or cause to be taken, all action, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary or advisable to consummate and make effective the business combination.

(5)There shall be no liability on the part of the Initiating Seller, the Managing Member, the Major Decision Committee or the Company to the Dragged Members or any of their respective Affiliates if any Company Sale is not consummated for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt,

the determination of whether to effect a Company Sale shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Initiating Seller.
