(a)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all voting, approval, veto, consent and similar decision-making rights herein held by JG TopCo shall be exclusively determined by JG, and JG shall not enter into any agreement restricting his ability to make such decisions with any other Person, and all references to restrictions on Transfer by JG TopCo shall be deemed to include Transfers by JG of such rights.

(b)    JG TopCo’s organizational documents (including its certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement (and/or any replacement or substitute thereof)) may not be amended in any manner that would allow any Person other than JG to vote or make any approval, veto, consent or other decision on behalf of or for the benefit of JG TopCo or JG (in relation to JG TopCo or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), to the extent any such vote, veto, consent or other decision would affect the Company or its Subsidiaries or any decision of any such Person, or to allow more than 20% of the aggregate Equity Securities of JG TopCo to be owned by any Person other than JG or a Permitted Transferee of JG, without the prior written consent of HHC. JGV Consulting LLC’s organizational documents (including its certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement (and/or any replacement or substitute thereof)) may not be amended in any manner that would allow any Person other than JG to hold a majority of the equity (or economic) interests, voting, approval ,veto, consent or other decision-making power of JGV Consulting LLC.

(c)    JG hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to HHC and the Company, and their permitted assigns, , as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the full and prompt payment and performance when required and due of any and all of JG TopCo’s obligations under this Agreement (the “Obligations”). JG irrevocably waives presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for in this Agreement. JG acknowledges and agrees that HHC and the Company would not enter into this Agreement or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby unless JG provides this guaranty and that JG will benefit personally from JG TopCo, HHC and the Company entering into this Agreement and consummating such transactions. This guaranty will survive the consummation of the Closing (as defined in the MIPA) and remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been fully discharged pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. JG hereby agrees that HHC may proceed against Parent before or after, or simultaneously with, proceeding against JG TopCo for a breach or default by JG TopCo under or in connection with the Obligations. Should HHC seek to enforce the obligations of JG under this Section 2.9 by action in any court or otherwise, JG waives any requirement, substantive or procedural, that HHC first enforce any rights or remedies against JG TopCo or any other Person liable to HHC for all or any part of the Obligations, including, without limitation, that a judgment first be rendered against JG TopCo or any other Person, or that JG TopCo or any other Person should be joined in such cause. Such waiver shall be without prejudice to HHC’s right, at its option, to proceed against JG TopCo or any other Person, whether by separate action or by joinder. This guaranty shall not be terminated or impaired in any way by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of JG TopCo or JG. This guaranty is binding upon JG and JG’s and JG TopCo’s successors, including, without limitation, any Person obligated by operation of law upon the reorganization, merger, consolidation or other change in the organizational structure of JG TopCo. The guaranty provided in this Section 2.9 is an unconditional and continuing guarantee of payment of the Obligations and not of collection.

4.2    Operating Budget.

(a)    A detailed initial budget of the Company and its Subsidiaries (subject to approval by the Board and HHC, as in effect from time to time, the “Budget”) for the period beginning on January 1, 2022 and ending December 31, 2022 is attached as Exhibit A, together with the fuller initial five-year business plan of which the initial Budget (as to the year fiscal year 2022) is a part (subject to approval by the Board and HHC, as in effect from time to time, the “Business Plan”). The Budget and the Business Plan attached as Exhibits A is hereby deemed to have been approved by the Board and HHC for the periods set forth therein. No later than one-hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the start of the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2023 and any subsequent Fiscal Year, the CEO and the other Officers shall prepare and submit to the Board and HHC for their review and approval (with respect to HHC under Section 6.2(l)) a proposed budget and business plan for the next Fiscal Year and five-year period including such Fiscal Year in the same form attached as Exhibit A (or in such other form as is otherwise approved by HHC), respectively.

(b)    Subject to approval under Section 6.2(l), the Board may at any time modify any Budget or Business Plan.

4.3    Preemptive Rights.

(a)    If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, the Company (subject to approval under Section 6.2(j)) proposes to issue or sell any Interests (including any Units) in the Company or securities directly or indirectly exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, Interests (or Units) in the Company (including any option, warrant or other right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Interests (or Units) in the Company, the “Preemptive Securities”), then, prior to any such issuance or sale, the Company shall give HHC and JG TopCo written notice of such proposed issuance or sale describing in reasonable detail the Preemptive Securities (including the number proposed to be issued or sold), the purchase price per unit of Preemptive Securities, the payment and other material terms and such Member’s Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion (each such written notice, a “Preemptive Rights Notice”). Each of HHC and JG TopCo shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to the Company within 30 days after receipt by such Member of the Preemptive Rights Notice (such written notice, an “Exercise Notice” and such period, the “Exercise Period”), to elect to purchase from the Company, on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Preemptive Rights Notice, all or any portion of its Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion (as defined below), plus in the event the other Member does not exercise their pre-emptive rights hereunder with respect to their entire Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion pursuant to a timely Exercise Notice, all or any portion of such Preemptive Securities in accordance with the following sentence. The “Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion” for any Member shall be such portion of the Preemptive Securities equal to the Percentage Share of such Member. In any Exercise Notice, the Member electing to

- 5 -

exercise its pre-emptive rights pursuant to this Section 4.3 (each, an “Electing Member”) shall specify the number of Preemptive Securities, up to its Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion, that it desires to purchase, and subject to the other Member not exercising his or its pre-emptive rights hereunder with respect to such other Member’s entire Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion pursuant to a timely Exercise Notice, such remaining portion of Preemptive Securities. Any Member who shall fail to give the Company an Exercise Notice during the Exercise Period (or does not timely exercise such Member’s pre-emptive rights with respect to his or its Preemptive Securities Pro Rata Portion) shall be deemed to have forfeited such Member’s right to acquire the Preemptive Securities offered (or the portion thereof not exercised) pursuant to such Preemptive Rights Notice but, for the avoidance of doubt, any such failure shall not affect such Member’s pre-emptive rights pursuant to this Section 4.3 with respect to any future issuances or sales of Preemptive Securities.

(b)    During the 120 days (which such 120-day period may be extended for a reasonable time to obtain any required regulatory approvals) following the expiration of the Exercise Period, the Company shall be entitled to issue or sell the Preemptive Securities described in the Preemptive Rights Notice with respect to which the Electing Members declined to exercise the pre-emptive right set forth in this Section 4.3 on a price per unit of Preemptive Securities not less than, and otherwise on terms no less favorable to the Company than, those set forth in the Preemptive Rights Notice. If the Company has not sold such Preemptive Securities within such time period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any Preemptive Securities without first again offering such securities to the Members in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.3.

(c)    The closing of the issuance or sale of Preemptive Securities to any Electing Member shall occur on the date and at the location specified by the Company in the Preemptive Rights Notice, subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.3.

(d)    The Percentage Shares shall be automatically appropriately adjusted to reflect any issuance or sale of Preemptive Securities and an updated Annex B shall be circulated to the Members by the Company in accordance with Section 2.7.

Section 5

Capital Accounts; Distributions; Allocations

5.1    Capital Accounts.

(a)    A Capital Account shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). The Capital Account of each Member shall be credited with (i) the amount of any Capital Contribution made in cash by such Member, (ii) the Agreed Value (net of any liabilities the Company is considered to assume under or take subject to Section 752 of the Code) of any Capital Contribution made in property other than cash by such Member, (iii) allocations to such Member of Net Income pursuant to Section 5.2, and (iv) any other item required to be credited for proper maintenance of capital accounts by the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code. A Member’s Capital Account shall be debited with (w) the amount of any cash distributed to such Member, (x) the Agreed Value (net of liabilities that such Member is considered to assume under or take subject to Section 752 of the Code) of any property other than cash distributed to such Member, (y) allocations to such Member of Net Loss pursuant to Section 5.2, and (z) any other item required to be debited for proper maintenance of capital accounts by the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code. Each Member’s Capital Account shall be adjusted as required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect a revaluation of Company Property at Agreed Value upon the occurrence of any event described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5) based upon the manner in which

- 6 -

gain or loss upon a sale of all the assets of the Company for Agreed Value would be allocated and, in the case of any revaluation while the Warrant is outstanding.

(b)    In the event that all or any portion of any Interest is transferred (or deemed transferred) in accordance with this Agreement, the transferee(s) of such Interest shall succeed to all or the corresponding portion, as the case may be, of the transferor’s Capital Account.

5.2    Book Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss.

(a)    Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.2(b) through (h) and (k), Net Income or Net Loss for any Fiscal Year, and to the extent that the Board determines it is necessary or appropriate, individual items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company shall be allocated among the Members so as to cause each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account balance to equal as nearly as possible (i) the amount of the distribution pursuant to Section 10.2(c) which such Member would receive if, at the end of such Fiscal Year, each Company asset were sold for an amount of cash equal to such asset’s Book Value, each liability of the Company were satisfied in cash in accordance with its terms (limited, with respect to each Nonrecourse Liability, to the Book Value of any asset or assets securing such Nonrecourse Liability), and all remaining cash of the Company were distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 5.4 minus (ii) such Member’s shares of Company Minimum Gain and Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets.

(b)    If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during a Company taxable year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in the order specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(j)(2) in proportion to, and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during such year (which share of such net decrease shall be determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This Section 5.2(b) is intended to be a “minimum gain chargeback” described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and is to be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(c)    If there is a net decrease during a Company taxable year in the Minimum Gain Attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(3)), any Member with a share of Minimum Gain Attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt at the beginning of such year shall be specially allocated items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in the order specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(j)(2) in proportion to, and to the extent of, an amount equal to the portion of such Member’s share of the net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)), during such year. This Section 5.2(c) is intended to be a “partner minimum gain chargeback” described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and is to be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(d)    Items of Company loss, deduction or Section 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditure that are attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members who bear the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt. This provision is to be interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(e)    The Nonrecourse Deductions for each taxable year of the Company shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Shares.

(f)    In the event that any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or

- 7 -

1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Company income and gain shall be specifically allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the deficit balance, if any, in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible. This provision is intended to be a “qualified income offset” described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and is to be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(g)    To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company Property pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution to a Member, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the Company Property) or loss (if the adjustment decreases the basis of the Company Property), and such gain or loss shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), as the case may be.

(h)    In the event that any item of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or Section 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditure is allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(b) through (g), subsequent items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction or Section 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditure (as determined for purposes of computing Net Income or Net Loss) shall, to the extent consistent with Section 5.2(b) through (g), be allocated between the Members so as to eliminate as quickly as possible on a proportionate basis, with respect to each Member, any disparity between (i) the sum of (x) such Member’s Capital Account balance and (y) such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debts determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g) and (i)(5) and (ii) the Capital Account which such Member would have had if all Company Minimum Gain and Minimum Gain Attributable to any Member Nonrecourse Debt had been realized and all allocations of Net Income and Net Loss had been made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) (without giving effect to the reference therein to Section 5.2(b) through (h)).

(i)    In the event that any item or items of income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company or any Member (or any Person related to a Member) is reallocated between the Company and any Member (or any Person related to a Member) pursuant to Code Section 482, then the allocation of the income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company for the year in which such reallocation occurs shall be made in such a fashion that the Capital Accounts of all Members, after taking into account any deemed contributions or distributions arising in connection with such reallocation, shall be equal to what they would have been if no reallocation had occurred.

(j)    In the event that the Percentage Shares of the Members shall change pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, there shall be an interim closing of the books of the Company as of the close of the day of such change (the “Interest Change Date”) and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be revalued pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) effective immediately prior to the event giving rise to the interim closing of the books of the Company. The Net Income or Net Loss of the Company for the period ending on the Interest Change Date shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares in effect prior to the Interest Change Date. The Net Income or Net Loss of the Company for any period commencing after the Interest Change Date shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares in effect after the Interest Change Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Interest Change Date is not the last day of a month, Net Income or Net Loss of the Company for the month in which the Interest Change Date occurs shall be prorated on a daily basis between the portion of the month ending on the Interest Change Date and the remainder of such month.

- 8 -

(k)    In the event that any Member contributes any services to the Company, or a Member otherwise provides or makes available such services to the Company and in connection therewith the Company is entitled to a current tax deduction (including depreciation and amortization allowed in any current year) in excess of the amount paid for such services by the Company in cash or property (other than an interest in the Company) or otherwise taken into account as part of the Agreed Value of such Member’s Capital Contributions contributed to the Company on the Effective Date, the amount of such excess shall be treated as a Capital Contribution by such Member and a corresponding amount of the Company’s deductions shall be specially allocated to such Member, with no net effect on such Member’s Capital Account.

(l)    The provisions of this Section 5.2 shall also apply to any Subsidiary of the Company that is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

5.3    Tax Allocations. For income tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be allocated among the Members in the manner set forth in Section 5.2; provided, however, that (a) all items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the Company by a Member (or revalued pursuant to the last sentence of Section 5.1(a)) shall be allocated for income tax purposes so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted tax basis of such property and its Agreed Value at the time of contribution (or the event requiring revaluation) in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code (and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)) and the remedial method described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d), (b) any gain arising from a disposition of Company Property that is characterized as ordinary income pursuant to Section 1245 or 1250 or any other applicable provision of the Code shall, to the extent that other items can be allocated in such a way that this proviso does not affect the total amount of taxable income or loss allocable to any Member for tax purposes, be allocated to the Members who were allocated the depreciation or other deductions giving rise to such ordinary income in proportion to the deductions allocated to such Members (treating any such deductions allowable to any Member or Affiliate thereof for any period during which the Company Property was held by such Member or Affiliate as deductions allocable to such Member) and (c) creditable foreign taxes shall be allocated in accordance with Treasury Regulation § 1.704-1(b)(4)(viii). Any increase (or decrease) in taxable income or loss resulting from adjustments to the basis of the assets of the Company made pursuant to Section 743 of the Code shall be taken into account by the Member or Members to which such adjustment is attributable. The provisions of this Section 5.3 shall also apply to any Subsidiary of the Company that is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

5.4    Distributions.

(a)    Distributions. The Board may, from time to time, cause the Company to distribute Available Cash pro rata to the holders of Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares.

(b)    The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, to the extent required by applicable law, withhold taxes from distributions made to any Member, or pay taxes on behalf of any Member (including with respect to a Transfer) pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 or 1446 or 1471-1474 of the Code or any similar provision of federal, state, local, or foreign law. Any taxes so withheld shall be deemed to have been distributed to such Member or, to the extent that any such tax is not withheld from a distribution, such Member shall promptly reimburse the Company therefor. If any imputed underpayment (including associated interest, penalties, or additions to tax) is required to be paid by the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 6225 of the Code or other applicable law with respect to income allocable to a Member or former Member, such Member or former Member (and, in the case of a former Member, its transferee) shall promptly (and in any event within 90 days) reimburse the Company therefor. Any amount due from a Member or a former Member to the Company pursuant to the two (2) preceding sentences shall bear interest at the “prime rate” (as specified in The Wall Street Journal, from time to time) plus three percent

- 9 -

(3%) from the time of payment by the Company of the tax or imputed underpayment to the time of payment by the Member or former Member, and the Company may offset such amounts against distributions or other amounts due from the Company to such Member. A Member’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) shall continue even if such Member ceases to be a Member. The amount of any Partnership Level Taxes paid by the Company or any relevant Subsidiary shall be treated as having been paid by the Company or any relevant Subsidiary on behalf of the Member to which the underlying income is allocable.

(c)    Anything in Section 5.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, no distribution shall be made by the Company to the extent that such distribution is prohibited by, or otherwise would violate, any applicable law.

(d)    No distribution shall be made by the Company except in accordance with this Section 5.4, Sections 1.2(c) or 6.4 of the MIPA, or as otherwise approved under Section 6.2(n).

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Working Capital Funding shall not be distributed to Unit holders, and shall be separated into an amount of $2,500,000 to support the working capital needs of the Company in accordance with the Budget, and $7,500,000 to be held only for investment in growth opportunities for the Company, provided that individual investments or any series of related investments that exceed $1,000,000 that are not expressly contemplated by the Budget shall not be made without the approval of HHC (collectively, the “Minimum Cash Balance Amount”), and (ii) in the event of the exercise by HHC of its rights under the Warrant to purchase additional Interests, any amounts received by the Company pursuant to such exercise shall be immediately distributed to JG TopCo as a special distribution, and no limitations on distributions set forth herein, including in this Section 5.4 or under Section 6.2(n), shall apply to such distribution. Each Member and the Company shall treat the exercise by HHC of its rights under the Warrant to purchase additional Interests followed by a special distribution to JG TopCo as a sale of such Interests by JG TopCo to HHC for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes.

5.5    No Interest; No Return of Capital. No interest shall be payable on the Capital Contributions, or in respect of the Capital Accounts, of the Members. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have the right to require that any portion of its Capital Contributions or Capital Account be returned or otherwise paid over to it.

5.6    Negative Capital Accounts. No Member shall be required to pay to any other Member or the Company any deficit or negative balance which may exist from time to time in such Member’s Capital Account (including upon and after dissolution of the Company).

- 10 -

if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. To the extent the Board shall constitute any committees, HHC will be entitled to have a representation in such committees in proportion to its representation on the Board. In the event the Percentage Shares of HHC or JG TopCo (together with their respective Permitted Transferees) change after the date hereof, the composition of the Board shall be adjusted as follows:

(i) in the event and for so long as HHC’s Percentage Share (together with its Permitted Transferees) is equal to 25.1% or more and less than or equal to 50%, the Board shall be increased to consist of five (5) Directors, with HHC entitled to designate two HHC Directors (and with no change to the JG Directors as contemplated above);

(iv) in the event and for so long as HHC’s Percentage Share (together with its Permitted Transferees) is equal to 90.1% or more, HHC shall be entitled to designate all of the Directors in such number as HHC may determine from time to time (and JG shall be automatically removed from the Board and shall thereafter no longer be entitled to vote, designate a Director or approve a Major Decision); and

(v) in the event and for so long as JG TopCo’s Percentage Share (together with its Permitted Transferees) is equal to 90.1% or more, JG TopCo shall be entitled to designate all of the Directors in such number as JG TopCo may determine from time to time (and the HHC Directors shall be automatically removed from the Board and shall thereafter no longer be entitled to vote, and HHC shall thereafter no longer be entitled to designate a Director or approve a Major Decision).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, JG shall be automatically removed from the Board and JG (or JGV Consulting LLC, as applicable) shall thereafter no longer be entitled to the Management Fee, the right to vote, designate a Director or approve a Major Decision in the event (each of clauses (i) and (ii), a “Competition Event”):(i) following the Lock-Up Expiration Date, (x) JG TopCo’s Percentage Share (together with its Permitted Transferees) is equal to 20% or less, or (y) JG provides notice to the Company and HHC that JG will no longer devote his full business time to the Company and its Subsidiaries and in the case of either (x) or (y) exercises his right to terminate the obligations contained in Section 8.2(a) in accordance with the second sentence of Section 8.2(a), or (ii) JG otherwise breaches the obligations contained in Section 8.2(a), and does

- 11 -

not cure such breach within twenty (20) Business Days’ of his receipt of written notice of such breach.

(b)    The initial JG Directors and HHC Director(s) shall be the individuals as set forth on Schedule 6.1(a). HHC and only HHC may remove its designated HHC Director(s) and, except as otherwise contemplated by Sections 3.2, 6.1(a) or 7.8, and JG TopCo and only JG TopCo may remove its designated JG Director(s), at any time and for any reason (or no reason) by giving written notice of same to the Company (and the other Member, as applicable). If either JG TopCo or HHC has terminated a JG Executive Director or HHC Director (as applicable) that it designated, JG TopCo or HHC, as applicable, may designate a replacement Director in such termination notice or in a subsequent notice to such other Member (but in the case of a replacement Independent Director, subject to the approval of (i) HHC, at any time that JG TopCo is entitled to appoint the Independent Director or (ii) JG TopCo, at any time that HHC is entitled to appoint the Independent Director (in the case of either (i) or (ii), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)). The Members agree to take all actions reasonably necessary for the prompt appointment to the Board of any such replacement Director designated by a Member (or the Members).

(c)    The Board shall have full authority to manage and control the business, affairs and properties of the Company, subject to the terms of this Agreement, including the rights to approve Major Decisions under Section 6.2. The Board may appoint or remove (and may cause the Company’s Subsidiaries to appoint or remove) such officers of the Company (or its Subsidiaries) (each, an “Officer”) with such authority, duties and responsibilities as the Board may determine from time-to-time.

(d)    JG hereby agrees to provide his services to the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“CEO”) and to devote his full business time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and to perform his duties in a diligent, competent, professional and skillful manner, consistent in all material respects with the past practices of the Company (other than in respect of the Company’s financial and accounting practices, the performances of which shall be consistent in all material respects with prudent industry business practice and GAAP) and in accordance with applicable laws and industry policies applicable to the Company and its Subsidiaries. In the event and to the extent JG may perform (subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 8) any personal services or otherwise utilize the JEAN GEORGES name or mark for profit, including any media appearances, hosting, books, publications or special events (“Personal Matters”), which Personal Matters shall not be permitted hereunder in the event they detract from JG’s provision of services as CEO to the Company, JG shall promptly assign or otherwise deliver the revenues from any such Personal Matters to the Company.

(e)    For so long as JG provides his services in accordance with the terms of Section 6.1(d), but subject to termination by the Company or the applicable purchaser in the event of a Sale Transaction (in which case JG’s CEO appointment and service obligations under Section 6.1(d) shall cease subject to negotiation of a commercially reasonable agreement with the purchaser as contemplated by Section 7.5(c)(iv)(x)) or consummation of a Buy/Sell Offer, or as otherwise terminated as contemplated by Sections 3.2(c) or 6.1(a), beginning on the date hereof, the Company shall pay to JGV Consulting LLC an annual management fee (payable in installments on the first day of each month, and pro rata in respect of any partial month) (the “Fee Payment Date”) of (i) until the exercise of the Warrant, $4,000,000 per year and (ii) after the exercise of the Warrant, $3,000,000 per year, such amount to increase automatically by 3% each calendar year after the date hereof ((i) and (ii), subject to the following proviso, the “Management Fee”); provided, however, that to the extent that the lesser of the Company’s available free cash flows (after deduction of overhead costs and expenses) for the applicable month, and working capital at the time a Management Fee installment is due (such lesser amount, the “Fee Threshold”), is less than the amount of the Management Fee installment(s) due at such time (including any outstanding prior Management Fee or

- 12 -

portion thereof), the Management Fee(s) payment shall be accordingly reduced to such lesser amount, and the portion of such Management Fee that the Company does not pay shall remain an obligation of the Company, payable to JGV Consulting LLC at the next Fee Payment Date (subject to the Fee Threshold) and in priority to any distribution of cash to the Members under Section 5.4. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, JG and JGV Consulting LLC hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event of a Sale Transaction, a Management Fee consistent with clause (ii) of the definition of Management Fee above would be a reasonable Management Fee. For so long as JG TopCo is a Member and entitled to consent to Major Decisions under Section 6.2, it is understood and agreed that in the event that the Management Fee is no longer payable to JGV Consulting, JG TopCo shall have the right to approve of a reallocation of the Management Fee to HHC or its Affiliates or a designee thereof providing services to the Company and its Subsidiaries. The fees and payments referred to in this Section 6.1(e) shall be treated as guaranteed payments under Section 707(c) of the Code.

(f)    No Officer or employee shall constitute a “manager” of the Company within the meaning of the Act. Except to the extent, if any, that such authority is granted to any of them by the Board, no Officer or employee shall have the authority to bind the Company.

Without limiting the obligations of the Members, Directors or Officers to the Company or the other parties hereto under this Section 6.3 or the other provisions of this Agreement, (x) 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 Members, Directors or Officers shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Member, Director or Officer, and (y) the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business or affairs under the Act or this Agreement shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on any Member, Director or Officer for debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company. Except with respect to the obligations of any Person under (or the liability of any Person for any breach of) Section 8 or any other Transaction Document, (x) there shall be, and each Member, Director and Officer shall be entitled to, a presumption that such Person acted in good faith in any action taken in his, her or its capacity as a Member, Director or Officer, and (y) each Member, Director and Officer in any action taken in his, her or its capacity as a Member, Director or Officer shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters such Member, Director and Officer reasonably believes are within such Person’s professional or expert competence.

(b)    The Company will indemnify any Member, Director or Officer (or any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, holder of any equity interests, partner, trustee, member, manager, representative or agent of such Person) (each, in any such capacity, an “Indemnified Person”) and hold him, her or it harmless from and against any loss, damage, liability, obligation, fine, claim, action, suit, proceeding, demand, expense, tax or similar item, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, or any attorney fees relating to any of the foregoing (collectively, “Damages”), suffered or incurred (including on account or by reason of any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding (a “Proceeding”)) by him, her or it (i) relating to or arising out of such Indemnified Person’s acts or omissions in the course of serving in any office of, or otherwise representing or acting for or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (in each case within or reasonably believed by such Indemnified Person to be within, the scope of their authority), or (ii) otherwise by reason of the fact that such Indemnified Person (or any other Indemnified Person in relation to the same Member, Director or Officer) is or was a Member, Director or Officer, except to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication (in each case which is not subject to appeal) adverse to him, her or it establishes that his, her or its acts constituted fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct or were in violation of any provision of this Agreement or involved a violation of law or fiduciary duties (to the extent applicable under Section 6.3(a)); provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any such indemnification will be solely from the net assets of the Company, and no Member will be required to make any capital contribution or otherwise pay any amount from its own assets as a result thereof. Upon making a claim for indemnification, an Indemnified Person may request in writing that the Company advance to him, her or it the expenses of defending the Proceeding giving rise to such indemnification claim or appearing as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Company will advance such expenses; provided, however, that such Indemnified Person furnishes the Company with such assurances and security as may be reasonably requested by the Company to assure repayment of the amounts advanced by the Company in the event that a judgment or other final adjudication (in each case which is not subject to appeal) is rendered holding that he, she or it was not entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnified Person shall agree to return to the Company amounts advanced by the Company in the event that a judgment or other final adjudication (in each case which is not subject to appeal) is rendered holding that he, she or it is or was not entitled to be indemnified by the Company in accordance with this Agreement. The indemnification provided by this Section 6.3(b) shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which each Indemnified Person may be entitled under any agreement, or as a matter of law, or otherwise, both as to any action in such Indemnified Person’s official capacity and to any action in another capacity,

- 17 -

and shall continue as to such Indemnified Person who has ceased to have an official capacity for acts or omissions, during such official capacity or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors and administrators of such Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.3, and for the avoidance of doubt, JG and JG TopCo shall be responsible for, and shall not receive any indemnification or be cleansed of any liability with respect to, any breach or violation of the Contribution Agreement or this Agreement.

(c)    In the event that any Proceeding shall be instituted or asserted or any Damages shall arise in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 6.3(b), such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company thereof in writing. Failure to provide notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations hereunder except to the extent the Company is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Company shall have the right to control the defense of any such Proceeding for which a claim for indemnification is sought by an Indemnified Person. In connection therewith, the Company shall have the right to retain counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person, at the Company’s expense, to represent each Indemnified Person and any others the Company may designate in such Proceeding. The Company shall keep the Indemnified Person advised of the status of such Proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Indemnified Person with respect thereto. In any such Proceeding, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such Indemnified Person’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Company if (i) the Company and such Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the Company shall have failed, within a reasonable time after being notified by the Indemnified Person of the existence of an indemnified claim, to assume the defense of such indemnified claim or (iii) the defendants to any such Proceeding include both the Company and such Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel may involve the Company in a material conflict of interest. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Company shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is seeking indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of each such Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of each such Indemnified Person from all liability and claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding. The Company and each such Indemnified Person shall reasonably cooperate in the execution and delivery of agreements, instruments and other documents and in the provision of access to witnesses, documents and property, consistent with this Agreement.

(d)    The Company hereby acknowledges that one or more of the Indemnified Persons may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance from Persons other than the Company (such Persons, excluding for the avoidance of doubt any insurer to the extent that such insurer insures the Company’s liabilities and obligations under this Section 6.3, the “Member Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees, in respect of its obligations under this Section 6.3, that (i) it is the indemnitor of first resort, i.e., its obligations to any such Indemnified Person under this Section 6.3 are primary and any obligation of the Member Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Person are secondary, (ii) it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of any such Indemnified Person to the extent legally permitted and as required by this Agreement (or any agreement between the Company and such Indemnified Person), without regard to any rights such Indemnified Person may have against the Member Indemnitors, and (iii) it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Member Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Member Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Member Indemnitors on behalf of any Indemnified Person

- 18 -

with respect to any claim for which such Indemnified Person has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Member Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Indemnified Person against the Company.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly required by law, no Member, solely by reason of being a Member, shall have any liability with respect to the liabilities of the Company in excess of (i) the amount of its aggregate Capital Contributions made to the Company, (ii) its share of any undistributed profits and assets of the Company and (iii) the amount of any distributions wrongfully distributed to it.

6.4    Insurance. The Company shall purchase and keep in force during the term of this agreement general liability insurance, liquor liability insurance, property insurance, if the Company or any Subsidiary owns property, and such other customary insurance for the Company and its Subsidiaries with such insurers and in such amounts not less (and with deductible amounts not greater) than those maintained by the Company as of the date of this Agreement. General liability and excess liability insurance shall name JG TopCo and HHC as additional insureds. All policies of insurance required to be carried by Company pursuant to this Agreement shall include a waiver by the insurer of any right to subrogation against JG TopCo and HHC which could arise by reason of any payment under such insurance policy or by reason of any act or omission of any of them. The parties hereto agree that the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain “key man” life and disability insurance on JG in form and substance reasonably acceptable to HHC, and JG agrees to cooperate fully with the Company in securing and maintaining said policies, including, but not limited to submitting himself to any physical examination which may be required at such reasonable times and places as Company shall specify.

6.5    No Interest in Company Property. No Company Property shall be deemed to be owned by any Member individually, but shall be owned by, and title shall be vested solely in, the Company, and legal title to all assets of the Company shall be taken and at all times held in the name of the Company.

6.6    Services and Support. Upon reasonable request, HHC shall cause its Affiliates to provide services and support to the Company and its Subsidiaries subject to mutual written agreement between the Company and HHC as to the costs payable to HHC therefor prior to delivery of such services and support.

6.7    Seaport Arrangements. JG TopCo and HHC shall negotiate in good faith reasonable modifications to the current management service agreements entered into between Creative Culinary Management Company (an affiliate of JG) and affiliates of HHC to permit the occasional use from time to time of employees or services from Creative Culinary Management Company in other JG opportunities to the extent such use does not interfere with ordinary course operations at the Seaport, it being understood and agreed that at any time HHC shall have the right to terminate such use of Creative Culinary Management Company in its sole discretion.

6.8    Publicity Rights. In the event JG TopCo no longer holds a majority of the Interests of the Company, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of JG, use or otherwise exploit the image or likeness of JG, other than to the extent such uses are already in place at such time.

Section 7

Transfer of Interests; Exit Rights

7.1    No Transfers.

(a)    A Member may not Transfer any of such Member’s Interest (and each Member shall procure that no Transfer of any of such Member’s Interest occurs), except pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 7. Any Transfer, or purported Transfer, in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void abinitio and the transferee, or purported transferee, in any such Transfer, or purported Transfer, shall not be admitted as a Member or obtain any rights under this Agreement.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no proposed Transfer by a Member of any of such Member’s Interest (other than pursuant to Sections 7.4, 7.5 or 7.6) may be made (and each Member shall procure that no Transfer of any of such Member’s Interest (other than pursuant to Sections 7.4, 7.5 or 7.6) occurs) if: (A) the Company, or the other Member, reasonably determines such Transfer would result in the Company being treated as anything other than a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes; (B) such Transfer could cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; or (C) such Transfer would result in the Company being regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(c)    Each transferee agrees, to the extent required by applicable law, to deduct and withhold any taxes required to be withheld by the transferee, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 1446(f) of the Code, and if the transferee fails to do so, it acknowledges that the Company may deduct such taxes (plus any applicable interest and penalties) from amounts otherwise attributable to the transferee, and such amounts shall be treated as distributed to the transferee for all purposes of this Agreement.

7.2    Certain Transfers.

(a)    Subject to all of the other provisions of this Section 7, (i) a Member may directly Transfer all or any portion of such Member’s Interest in a Permitted Transfer, (ii) a direct or indirect holder of equity interests in a Member may directly Transfer all (but not less than all) of such equity interests in a Permitted Transfer, and (iii) a Member may directly Transfer all or any portion of such Member’s Interest, and his, her or its Permitted Transferee’s Interests, in accordance with Sections 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 or 7.6.

(b)    In connection with a Going Public Transaction or a Sale of the Company, subject to Section 6.2, if the Board determines that corporate structure changes are reasonably necessary or appropriate, including conversion to a corporation, election for the Company to be treated as a corporation for applicable tax purposes, the transfer of all Units to a new corporation or the transfer of substantially all of the Company’s assets to a new corporation, pursuant to a merger, recapitalization, contribution, reorganization, or otherwise, (i) the Company may, and may cause its Subsidiaries to undergo such corporate structure changes (and eliminate voting, board designation and other rights of Member’s not customarily retained in connection with a Going Public Transaction) and (ii) each Member shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such further instruments and take such further action as the Company may reasonably request in order to effectuate such corporate structure change, so long as such restructuring would not disproportionately dilute the ownership interests of such Member.

(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, other than by Permitted Transfer or a Sale of the Company, it is understood that neither JG TopCo nor its Permitted Transferees may Transfer any Interest until after the Lock-Up Expiration Date (and then, only to the extent permitted in this Section 7).

- 20 -

7.3    Right of First Refusal.

(a)    (i) With respect to JG TopCo, at any time after (but only after) the Lock-Up Expiration Date, and solely with respect to the sale by JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees of an Interest (and Units) representing no more than a twenty-five percent (25%) Percentage Share and no less than a five percent (5%) Percentage Share, or (ii) with respect to HHC, at any time and for no less than a five percent (5%) Percentage Share, if such Member (either JG TopCo in accordance with clause (i) or HHC in accordance with clause (ii), the “Initiating Member”, and the other Member, the “Non-Initiating Member”) receives (whether initiated by the Initiating Member or via an unsolicited bid) a bona fide written offer from a Third Party (such Person, the “ROFRPurchaser”), to purchase such applicable portion of his, her or its and/or his, her or its Permitted Transferees’ Interests (the “Offered Securities”) for cash, cash equivalents or Marketable Securities, such Initiating Member shall be permitted to consummate such Transfer in accordance with this Section 7.3 if such Initiating Member first offers the Non-Initiating Member the right to purchase all such Offered Securities pursuant to a written notice containing (i) the ROFR Purchaser’s identity (and the identity of any Persons that control such ROFR Purchaser) and (ii) a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions for the proposed Transfer (including price (and confirmation of market value of any Marketable Securities as of the date of such ROFR Purchaser offer), payment terms and conditions to closing) (such terms and conditions, the “ROFR Terms”, and such notice, the “ROFR Notice”); provided, however, that if such Third Party is a Prohibited Person, the Initiating Member shall only be permitted to consummate a sale to such Third Party following receipt of the written consent of the Non-Initiating Member.

(b)    In the event that the Non-Initiating Member does not deliver to the Initiating Member written notice of his, her or its binding agreement to purchase all of the Offered Securities in accordance with the ROFR Terms within 45 days after the ROFR Notice is given (the “ROFR Period”), then, subject to Section 7.3(d), the Initiating Member shall have the right, for a period of 90 days (which such 90-day period may be extended for a reasonable time to obtain any required regulatory approvals) after expiration of the ROFR Period, to sell all (but not less than all) of the Offered Securities to the ROFR Purchaser on terms and conditions no less favorable in the aggregate to the ROFR Terms (a “ROFR Compliant Sale”). In the event the Initiating Member does not consummate a ROFR Compliant Sale during the 90-day period (as extended with respect to any required regulatory approvals) after the expiration of the ROFR Period, then the Initiating Member may not thereafter sell its Interest to a Third Party without giving the Non-Initiating Member a new ROFR Notice pursuant to Section 7.3(a) (and otherwise complying anew with this Section 7.3).

(c)    In the event that the Non-Initiating Member timely delivers to the Initiating Member written notice of his, her or its binding agreement to purchase all of the Offered Securities in accordance with the ROFR Terms, the Offered Securities shall be sold to the Non-Initiating Member on such terms.

(d)    During the ROFR Period, (i) in the event JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees Percentage Share at such time is in excess of fifty percent (50%), HHC, or (ii) in the event HHC and its Permitted Transferees Percentage Share at such time is in excess of fifty percent (50%), JG TopCo (clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Tagging Party”), the Tagging Party shall have the right and option, by delivering to the Initiating Member a written notice within the ROFR Period (a “Tag Notice”), to sell, on the same terms and conditions as the ROFR Compliant Sale by the Initiating Member to a Third Party, a number of Units equal to the product of: (A) the number of Units owned by the Tagging Party and its Permitted Transferees at such time, and (B) the quotient obtained by dividing the number of Units included in the Offered Securities subject to the ROFR Compliant Sale and the aggregate number of Units owned by the Initiating Member and its Permitted Transferees at such time (such common Units, the “Tag-Along Participation Securities”) (and if the ROFR Purchaser is not willing to purchase such number of Units from

- 21 -

the Tagging Party, the number of Units to be sold by each of the Initiating Member and the Tagging Party and their respective Permitted Transferees shall be reduced in accordance with their respected Percentage Shares). As promptly as practicable after the consummation of any ROFR Compliant Sale including Tag- Along Participation Securities pursuant to this Section 7.3(d) and the receipt of the consideration therefrom, the Initiating Member shall remit to the Tagging Party the portion of consideration for the Tag-Along Participation Securities received pursuant thereto unless the Tagging Party received such consideration directly. The Initiating Member shall not effect the Transfer of any Units pursuant to this Section 7.3 in the event a Tag Notice is delivered in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.3(d) unless a proportional amount of (x) Units of the Initiating Member and its Permitted Transferees and (y) Units that the Tagging Party and/or its Permitted Transferees has exercised the right to sell pursuant to this Section 7.3(d), are simultaneously sold.

7.4    Call Rights.

(a)    Following the occurrence of the death or Disability of JG, HHC shall have the right, upon written notice (a “Call Notice”) to JG Topco (or upon receipt of updated notice information from his duly authorized executor or legal guardian or legal representative as applicable (the “JG Executor”) together with supporting detail evidencing such authority to the reasonable satisfaction of HHC, to the JG Executor), to elect to purchase JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.4 (a “Call”). Upon delivery of a Call Notice, all of the voting, consent and approval rights (including with respect to Major Decisions) of JG TopCo, its Permitted Transferees and the JG Directors under this Agreement shall automatically terminate, provided that such rights shall be reinstated in the event HHC does not make the Call Payment when due and comply with the other terms of this Section 7.4.

(b)    The amount paid for JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests sold pursuant to a Call shall be the Fair Market Value as of the delivery of the Call Notice, paid in cash (subject to deduction of expenses in accordance with Section 7.4(c), the “Call Payment”). The transfer documentation effecting the Call shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to HHC (which for the avoidance of doubt shall include representations and warranties substantially the same as those made by JG TopCo in the MIPA), transferring JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests to HHC free and clear of all liens or encumbrances, other than under applicable securities laws and this Agreement. The closing of any purchase and sale of JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests pursuant to a Call shall occur at the offices of the Company on the tenth Business Day after the final determination of the Fair Market Value thereof in accordance with Sections 7.4(c) (or, if later, five (5) Business Days after all governmental or third party approvals required for the purchase and sale have been obtained) or at such other place, date and time mutually agreed upon by HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable).

(c)    For the period ending 30 days after delivery of a Call Notice (the “Negotiation Period”), HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) shall in good faith negotiate the Fair Market Value of JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests. In the event that HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) agree thereon, such agreed upon value shall be the Fair Market Value payable for such Interests. In the event that HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) do not agree thereon within the Negotiation Period, then either HHC or JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) may begin a “baseball arbitration” by giving the other written notice thereof (an “Arbitration Notice”). Within 30 days after the giving of an Arbitration Notice, HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) shall (a) jointly select an independent nationally-recognized investment banking firm or valuation firm experienced in valuing businesses such as the Company who has not been hired or provided services to either HHC or JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable), or their respective Affiliates, within the last three years (but in the event they cannot agree on such a firm during such 30-day period, then the ICC International Centre for ADR will select such a firm pursuant to the ICC Rules for the

- 22 -

Appointment of Experts and Neutrals) (the “Arbitrator”) and (b) each submit to the other (and to the Arbitrator) its calculation of the Fair Market Value of JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests. The Arbitrator shall be instructed to choose the party (HHC or JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable)) whose calculation of the Fair Market Value of JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests is closer to the calculation thereof by the Arbitrator, and such Party’s Fair Market Value calculation shall be the Fair Market Value of JG TopCo and its Permitted Transferees’ Interests for purposes of such Call, such determination being final and binding upon each Party and non-appealable. HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) shall direct the Arbitrator to render its determination within 30 days following the submission of the dispute to the Arbitrator. In acting hereunder, the Arbitrator shall be acting as an appraising expert and not as an arbitrator. For purposes of determining Fair Market Value, the parties shall cooperate with and make available to each other and their respective Representatives and the Arbitrator (if applicable) all information, records and other data as may be reasonably required in connection with determining Fair Market Value and the resolution of any disputes with respect thereto. In connection with the resolution of any such dispute by the Arbitrator, each of HHC and JG TopCo (or the JG Executor, as applicable) and their respective Representatives shall have a reasonable opportunity to jointly meet with the Arbitrator to provide their respective views as to any disputed issues with respect to the determination of Fair Market Value. The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and the other reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the party that was selected by the Arbitrator incurred in connection with this Section 7.4 shall be borne, in their entirety, by the party that was not selected by the Arbitrator.

7.5    Sale Process.

(a)    HHC Sale Process Rights. Following the earlier of the third anniversary of the Effective Date and the Cessation of Services Date, HHC may, on no more than one occasion within any eighteen (18) month period, give written notice to JG TopCo (a “Sale Notice”) of its desire to initiate a Sale of the Company or Going Public Transaction process in accordance with Section 7.5(b).

(b)    Right to Direct a Sale Process. Following delivery of a Sale Notice, HHC shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause (and utilize the Company and its Subsidiaries in furtherance thereof) the Company (and its Subsidiaries, as applicable) to enter into (subject to JG TopCo’s consent pursuant to Section 6.2) and consummate a bona fide (i.e. without deceit or fraud) Sale of the Company or Going Public Transaction with a Third Party in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.5 (a “Sale Transaction”), and HHC shall be permitted initiate a process to seek a Sale Transaction and to direct and control all decisions in connection therewith (including the hiring or termination of any investment bank and/or other professional advisers and making all decisions regarding valuation and consideration), and the Members shall participate in, and cooperate in good faith with, such process, in each case as requested by HHC. HHC shall conduct any such process in regular consultation with JG TopCo and will keep JG TopCo reasonably and regularly apprised of all material developments related to any such process.

(c)    In the event of a Sale Transaction, (i) each Member will waive any dissenter’s rights and other similar rights, (ii) if the Sale Transaction is structured as a sale of securities, each Member will agree to sell such Member’s Interests on the terms and conditions of the Sale Transaction, (iii) notwithstanding the structural or other changes to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the Sale Transaction, JG and any employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall remain subject to any non-competition, non-solicitation, corporate opportunity, non-disparagement and confidentiality obligations or similar restrictive covenants existing as of the date of such Sale Transaction in accordance with the terms thereof as then in effect (including any such obligations under Section 8), and (iv) if required by the purchaser (or underwriter or similar counterparty to the Sale Transaction), (x) excluding any Sale Transaction after the Cessation of Services Date, JG shall negotiate and enter into a commercially reasonable consulting or similar agreement with such purchaser or other counterparty for a period of up to three years after the closing of the Sale Transaction, and (y) JG TopCo will roll over up to twenty-five

- 23 -

percent (25%) of its and its Permitted Transferees’ equity into the Company or such other Entity surviving the Sale Transaction owned by the purchaser (or similar counterparty to the Sale Transaction). Each Member will take all reasonably necessary actions as directed by HHC in connection with the consummation of any Sale Transaction, including by executing the applicable transaction agreements being executed by HHC.

(d)    In a Sale Transaction, the aggregate consideration payable upon consummation of such Sale Transaction (if any) to all Members in respect of their Interests (the “Sale Consideration”) shall be apportioned to and paid to the Members in the Sale Transaction based on the Unit Sale Value of each such Member’s Units. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Going Public Transaction, it is understood and agreed that there may not be any Sale Consideration at the time of consummation and the Members may be subject to a market stand-off or lock-up agreement with respect to their Interests.

7.6    Buy/Sell.

(a)    In the event JG and HHC fail to unanimously approve the Major Decisions set forth in Sections 6.2(f) or (g) (in each case, solely in connection with a potential Sale Transaction), or Section 6.2(l) (in any such case, a “Significant Deadlock”) raised for approval (whether by the Board or a Member) and either JG or HHC (or both) wish to negotiate and discuss such Major Decision in order to come to mutual agreement, HHC and JG shall negotiate in good faith for resolution thereof for a sixty (60) day period (the “Deadlock Negotiation Period”). In the event the Significant Deadlock is not resolved during such period, (i) HHC shall have the right, upon written notice (an “HHC Buy/Sell Notice”) to JG within forty five (45) days of the expiration of the Deadlock Negotiation Period (the “Initial Buy/Sell Period”), to deliver to JG a written offer to purchase all of the Interests owned by JG and his Permitted Transferees, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, other than under applicable securities laws and this Agreement (a “HHC Buy/Sell Offer”), or (ii) in the event JG does not deliver an HHC Buy/Sell Notice within the Initial Buy/Sell Period and the Significant Deadlock is still not resolved, JG shall have the right, upon written notice (a “JG Buy/Sell Notice”) to HHC within forty five (45) days of the expiration of the Initial Buy/Sell Period (the “JG Buy/Sell Period”), to deliver to JG a written offer to purchase all of the Interests owned by HHC and his Permitted Transferees, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, other than under applicable securities laws and this Agreement (a “JG Buy/Sell Offer”, and together with the HHC Buy/Sell Offer, a “Buy/Sell Offer”). Following the expiration of the JG Buy/Sell Period, for so long as the Significant Deadlock is not resolved, either Member may deliver a Buy/Sell Offer to the other.

(b)    The Buy/Sell Offer shall set forth all of the terms and conditions on which either HHC or JG TopCo (as applicable) under the HHC Buy/Sell Notice or JG Buy/Sell Notice (the “Triggering Member”) is willing to purchase the Interests owned by the other Member and his or its Permitted Transferee (the “Receiving Member”), shall be a written and binding offer to purchase the Interests owned by the Receiving Member and his or its Permitted Transferees, and shall include the Triggering Member’s determination of the price per Unit to be paid in cash to the Receiving Member and his or its Permitted Transferees for all of the Receiving Member’s and his or its Permitted Transferees’ Units.

(c)    The Receiving Member shall have sixty (60) days (the “Buy/Sell Period”) after receipt of a Buy/Sell Offer to deliver to the Triggering Member a written and binding offer (the “Buy Response ”) to purchase (for cash) all of the Interests owned by the Triggering Member and his or its Permitted Transferees on the same terms set forth in the Buy/Sell Offer (except that the price to be paid by the Receiving Member pursuant to the Buy Response for the Interests owned by the Triggering Member and its Permitted Transferees will be equal to the price per Unit included in the Buy/Sell Offer multiplied by the number of Units held by the Triggering Member and his or its Permitted Transferees).

- 24 -

(d)    If (i) the Receiving Member accepts the Buy/Sell Offer in writing, or (ii) otherwise does not deliver a Buy Response during the Buy/Sell Period, the Triggering Member will be deemed to have accepted the Buy/Sell Offer, and in the case of clause (i) or (ii), the closing of the purchase and sale of Interests contemplated by the Buy/Sell Offer will take place on the date that is ninety (90) days after the last day of the Buy/Sell Period (or, if later, five (5) Business Days after all governmental or third party approvals required for the purchase and sale have been obtained) or on such other date as the Triggering Member and Receiving Member otherwise agree. If the Receiving Member delivers the Buy Response, the purchase and sale of Interests contemplated by the Buy Response will take place on the date that is ninety (90) days after deliver of the Buy Response (or, if later, five (5) Business Days after all governmental or third party approvals required for the purchase and sale have been obtained) or on such other date as the Triggering Member and Receiving Member otherwise agree.

(e)    The transfer documentation effecting the closing of the Buy/Sell Offer transaction shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the party purchasing the Interests, with standard representations of ownership and authority to sell and assign the Interests to the purchaser, and the valid and enforceable transfer of the Interests free and clear of all liens or encumbrances, other than under applicable securities laws and this Agreement, together with such other instruments and documents as may be necessary or desirable to legally effectuate the sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer of the Interests to the purchaser. Following the closing of any such Buy/Sell Offer, the Member transferring his or its Interest hereunder shall remain subject to any non-competition, non-solicitation, corporate opportunity, non-disparagement and confidentiality obligations or similar restrictive covenants existing as of the date of such transaction in accordance with the terms thereof as then in effect (including any such obligations under Section 8). In the event HHC or JG TopCo purchases the Interests of the other Member and his or its Permitted Transferees pursuant to this Section 7.6, the Member selling his or its Interests and the Directors such Member may designate shall be automatically removed from the Board (and the Member purchasing the Interests shall thereafter have the rights of the selling Member with respect to the designation of such former Member’s Director and other Member rights of such former Member).

7.7    Reasonableness. Each Member hereby acknowledges the reasonableness of the prohibitions contained in this Section 7 in view of the Company and the relationship of the Members.

7.8    Certain Effects of Transfer.

(a)    Following a direct Transfer by a Member of all of his, her or its and/or his, her or its Permitted Transferees’ Interests as permitted or required by this Section 7 (a “Permitted Direct Transfer”), any allocations or distributions previously made to, and any Capital Contributions previously made by, the Member (and his, her or its Permitted Transferees, as applicable) Transferring such Interest with respect to such Interests subject to such Transfer shall be deemed to have been made to or by the transferee for purposes of Sections 4, 5 and 10.2, and such transferee shall be entitled to receive distributions of cash or other property, and allocations of Net Income, Net Loss and of items of income, deduction, gain, loss, or credit, from the Company attributable to the Interest subject to such Transfer and shall succeed to all economic and other rights and obligations of the Member transferring such Interest attributable to the Interest subject to such Transfer from and after the effective date of the Transfer.

(b)    Upon consummation of a Permitted Direct Transfer, the transferring Member shall cease to be a Member or to have any right, title or interest in or to or the Company, and this Agreement (other than the rights and obligations under Sections 6.3, 8 and, to the extent applicable, 12, which (as in effect on the date of consummation of such Transfer) shall continue to be binding upon such transferring Member) shall terminate with respect to such transferring Member (and all Indemnified Persons in relation to such transferring Member). However, no such Transfer (and no resulting cessation of such transferring Member’s status as a Member or termination of this Agreement with respect to such transferring Member)

- 25 -

shall relieve the transferor of any of the liabilities and/or obligations of the transferor under this Agreement to the extent required under the terms of this Agreement to have been paid and/or performed prior to the consummation of such Transfer (or of any liability it may have arising out of any breach, misrepresentation, violation or default by the transferor prior to such consummation).

(c)    For so long as HHC or JG TopCo (or their respective successors to Member voting rights in accordance with the proviso hereto) hold any Units, respectively, HHC and JG (respectively) shall be the only Members entitled to vote, approve or consent to any action, or make any other decision, under this Agreement, and their respective Permitted Transferees shall have no independent vote, approval, consent or decision-making right (including any right to designate a Director) under this Agreement or in any event receive the Management Fee (except that JGV Consulting LLC shall be entitled to receive the Management Fee); provided, however, that notwithstanding the Transfer of all the Units of JG TopCo to one or more Permitted Transferees permitted in accordance with Section 7, the recipient of such Units shall not succeed JG with respect to the Management Fee or any of the voting, approval, consent and decision-making rights (including any right to designate a Director) of JG TopCo provided under this Agreement, other than the Major Decisions under Section 6.2 which shall be retained by the recipient of the majority of such Transferred Percentage Shares for so long as such Permitted Transferees hold an aggregate Percentage Share of at least 50%.

(d)    Promptly upon the consummation of a direct Transfer, Annex B hereto shall be automatically amended to reflect such Transfer and the CEO shall promptly deliver to the Members (or if the CEO is not available due to a Transfer by the CEO in his capacity as a Member, the non-Transferring Member shall promptly deliver to the other Members) a copy of such amended Annex.

(a)    Each party to this Agreement will not disclose (i) any Confidential Information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) any Confidential Information with respect to any Member provided to such party pursuant to or otherwise in connection with the Company or this Agreement, to any other Person other than to his, her or its Affiliates, employees or agents who must have access to the Confidential Information in order to perform the disclosing party’s obligations hereunder (or otherwise need to know such Confidential Information) and who agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that each party shall be liable to the other parties hereto for any failure of any of his, her or its Affiliates, employees or agents (to whom such party discloses any Confidential Information) to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it shall not be a breach of this Agreement to disclose Confidential Information of another party hereto or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries (i) pursuant to an order of any Governmental Entity or if required by law or legal process; provided, however, that the party so ordered to disclose the Confidential Information shall, to the extent permissible, provide prompt notice thereof to the party whose Confidential Information is to be so disclosed to afford such party adequate time to seek a protective order, (ii) to the extent required for any party to enforce or defend his, her or its rights under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or other contract or transaction to which he, she or it is a party, in each case, involving any of the other parties hereto or their respective Affiliates, (iii) in relation to Confidential Information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as permitted by the other Member(s), or (iv) to a prospective direct transferee of a Member’s Interest (in a transaction permitted under Section 7) if (and only if) prior to any disclosure pursuant to this

- 26 -

clause (iv), the prospective transferee (and, if such transferee is not a creditworthy Person, an Affiliate of such prospective transferee reasonably acceptable to the (other) Member(s)) executes and delivers to the Company and the Members a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the (other) Member(s).

(c)    No party to this Agreement may disclose to any third party (other than such party’s consultants, accountants, advisors, owners and attorneys related to this matter) or to its employees, directors, or officers other than in their capacity as such on a need-to-know basis, any information with respect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement except: (i) to the extent necessary to comply with law (including applicable stock exchange regulations) or the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which event(s) the party making such disclosure shall so notify the (other) Member(s) as promptly as permissible (if possible, prior to making such disclosure), and shall seek confidential treatment of such information, (ii) in order to enforce or defend his, her or its rights pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or other contract or transaction involving any of the other parties hereto or their respective Affiliates; and (iii) as part of its normal reporting or review procedure to its owners, parents and/or affiliated companies, their banks, auditors, attorneys, accountants and similar professionals, provided, however, that such Persons shall agree to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or are already bound by confidentiality obligations with the disclosing party of a nature similar to those set forth herein (it being understood and agreed that each Member shall be liable to the other Member for any failure of any Person to whom it discloses any information with respect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement as permitted pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) (other than pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 8.1(c)) to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Agreement); provided, further, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including this Section 8.1), for so long as HHC is, or is controlled by a company that is, subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, HHC and its Affiliates (including The Howard Hughes Corporation) may make any disclosures about The Howard Hughes Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries and investments (including with respect to HHC and its Interest in the Company) that are reasonably necessary or appropriate for a public company to make without any restrictions.

8.2    Restrictive Covenants.

(a)    For a period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the later of (i) the fourth anniversary of this Agreement, and (ii) such time that JG TopCo (and JG and any Permitted Transferees) holds less than a 20% Percentage Share, and (iii) such time that JG no longer provides consulting or similar services to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Non-Compete Period”), JG will not, and will cause JG TopCo and his other Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, engage or participate in, or render management services to (whether as owner, operator, member, shareholder, trustee, manager, consultant, strategic partner, employee or otherwise, with or without compensation) any Person engaged in, the Business (a “Competing Business”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the fourth anniversary of this Agreement, subject to JG providing thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to HHC and the Company that JG will terminate the Non-Compete Period, JG shall at the end of such thirty (30) day period no longer be bound by the restrictions in this 8.2(a), subject to Section 6.1(a) of the Company LLC Agreement. For purposes of illustration and not limitation, Competing Business includes ownership of, employment by or management services related to food preparation and service in the setting of any restaurant, hotel or hospitality group in any city in which any Company Group Party is engaged or participates (or management has expressed the intent to engage or participate) in any of the businesses or services referred to in clause (i) of the definition of Business. For the purposes of the foregoing, JG will not be in violation of this 8.2(a) solely by reason of his beneficial ownership, together with that of his Affiliates, of five percent or less of a Competing Business’ voting capital stock if (A) such Competing Business is publicly traded and (B) JG and his Affiliates do not control the operation or management of such Competing Business.

- 27 -

(b)    During the Non-Compete Period, JG and HHC will not, and will cause their respective Affiliates (other that the Company and its Subsidiaries) not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit for employment, recruit or hire (except within the Company and its Subsidiaries), either as an employee or a consultant, any employee or consultant of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) otherwise engage or participate in any effort or act to induce any Person to discontinue a relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, that general advertisements in media not targeted to any such consultants, employees independent contractors or other Persons shall not deemed prohibited solicitations, recruitment or inducement hereunder.

(c)    Except as disclosed in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding in connection with the rights or obligations of JG or HHC (or their respective Affiliates) under this Agreement, the MIPA or any other action, suit or other proceeding involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, JG and HHC shall not and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to (and will use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives not to), make or cause to be made or condone the making of any statement, comment or other communication, written or otherwise, that could constitute disparagement or criticism of, or that could otherwise be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to, or otherwise reflect adversely on, harm the reputation of, or encourage any adverse action against, JG, HHC, the Company and its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives or any of the teams, personnel, products or services of the foregoing.

(d)    Corporate Opportunities. JG agrees that, until the later of: (i) the end of the Non-Compete Period and (ii) the date JG is no longer a member of the Company’s board of directors and does not otherwise provide services as an officer, employee or consultant to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, JG shall not use (except for the benefit of the Company) or present or offer to any other Person any opportunities relating to the acquisition or ownership of interests in, participation in, operation of or investment in the Business (without regard to city or location of such opportunity), or any business a reasonable person knowledgeable about the Business would characterize as substantially related to the Business.

(e)    JG acknowledges and agrees that the duration, content and scope (including the worldwide scope) of the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions included in this Section 8.2 are reasonable, and that compliance with such covenants is necessary to protect the business and goodwill of the Company, HHC, and their respective Affiliates and are an integral factor in HHC’s determination to enter into and consummate this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Transactions. The Parties acknowledge that HHC would not have entered into and consummated this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the Transactions without receiving the additional consideration offered by JG and his Affiliates in agreeing to be bound by the restrictions contained in this Section 8.2, and that such restrictions are a key requirement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and are a reasonable and necessary protection of the immediate interests of each of the Company, HHC and their respective Affiliates and that any violation or breach of such restrictions would cause substantial injury to each the Company, HHC and their respective Affiliates. Without derogating from the generality of Section 12.14, in the event of a violation or breach (or a threatened violation or breach) by JG or any Affiliate or Representative of JG of such restrictions, each of the Company, HHC and their respective Affiliates will be entitled to an injunction restraining JG or any Affiliate or Representative of JG, as applicable, from such violation or breach (or threatened violation or breach), without the necessity of proving the inadequacy as a remedy of money damages or the posting of a bond; provided, however, that the right to injunctive relief will not be construed as prohibiting the Company, HHC or their respective Affiliates from pursuing any other available remedies, whether at law or in equity, for such violation or breach (or threatened violation or breach). Without derogating from the generality of Section 12.11, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction, in a final non-appealable judgment or order, shall determine that the duration or the scope (geographic or otherwise), or both, of the non-competition or non-solicitation

- 28 -

provisions included in this Section 8.2 are unreasonable and that such provisions are to that extent unenforceable, the parties agree that such provisions shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and in the greatest scope (geographic or otherwise) that would not render them unenforceable, and in such event JG hereby consents that such provisions may be judicially modified accordingly in any proceeding brought to enforce the provisions of this Section 8.2.

(b)    Section 18-304 of the Act shall not apply to the Company. Nothing in this Section 9.1(b) limits the terms of Section 12.13.
