the number of common units of Holding held by Funding on the date of the TCEP Exchange (the “Common Exchange Percentage”), (ii) a binding commitment (a “Redemption Commitment”) by the Corporation to pay to TCEP an amount of cash equal to the Liquidation Value (calculated as of the date of the consummation of the IPO) of the Class A Preferred Units of Holding (each a “Preferred Unit”) held by Funding on the Record Date (the “TCEP Redemption Payment”), (iii) a binding commitment by the Corporation to pay to Funding its allocable portion of the Final Tax Distribution, (iv) a binding commitment by the Corporation to pay to TCEP, or its designee, an amount equal to the portion of the Retained Earnings Payout allocable to Funding (the “TCEP Retained Earnings Payout”), and (v) a binding contingent commitment by the Corporation to pay to TCEP an amount equal to the Remaining Funding Tax Reserve (as defined in the Transfer Agreement), if any, in accordance with the terms of the Transfer Agreement;

WHEREAS, immediately following the consummation of the Non-TCEP Exchange and prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Non-TCEP Members and TCEP shall constitute all of the shareholders of the Corporation;

WHEREAS, immediately following the consummation of the Non-TCEP Exchange, the Corporation shall own all of the outstanding Common Units and Preferred Units (collectively, the “Units”) of Holding; approximately 61% of such Units shall be held directly by the Corporation and approximately 39% of such Units shall be held indirectly by the Corporation through Funding;
