2.3So long as the Post-IPO GA Nominee is a member of the Board pursuant to Section 2.1 above, then the Post-IPO GA Nominee shall be entitled in his or her discretion to be a member of any Board committee, subject to the requirements of the national stock exchange on which the securities of the Company are listed in connection with an Initial Public Event and the rules and regulations of the SEC (including, without limitation, the relevant independence standards of such national stock exchange or the rules and regulations of the SEC).

2.4So long as the Post-IPO GA Nominee is entitled to be a member of the Board pursuant to Section 2.1 above, then General Atlantic may, by written notice to the Company at any time prior to December 31 of the year preceding the next meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the Post-IPO GA Nominee is to be elected, designate a replacement or successor to the Post-IPO GA Nominee, in which case the provisions of Section 2.1 shall apply to such replacement or successor. In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Post-IPO GA Nominee from being removed for cause; provided, that in the event of such removal for cause or upon any other removal or resignation of the Post-IPO GA Nominee, General Atlantic may, by written notice to the Company, designate a replacement Post-IPO GA Nominee (who may not be the person removed for cause, if applicable). In such event, (1) if the Post-IPO GA Nominee is entitled to be a member of the Board pursuant to Section 2.1 above, then the provisions of Section 2.1 shall apply to such replacement Post-IPO GA Nominee and (2) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Board to fill the vacancy created by such removal with the replacement Post-IPO GA Nominee designated by General Atlantic pursuant to Section 223 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as promptly as practicable prior to the next meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the Post-IPO GA Nominee is to be elected.

2.5This Section 2 shall terminate and have no further force or effect upon the earliest to occur of (1) such time that General Atlantic elects, in its sole discretion, to terminate its rights hereunder, (2) such time that General Atlantic ceases to own at least 9,772,914 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, subdivisions, recapitalizations or the like) (the “GA Post-IPO Share Threshold”), (3) immediately prior to the Third Annual Meeting (the “Post-IPO Expiration Time”) or (4) immediately prior to the consummation of a Change of Control Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all obligations of the Filing Parties with respect to Filing Information set forth in Section 2.1 shall survive any such termination to the extent applicable.

3.Post-Expiration Obligations.

3.1If Section 2 has expired pursuant to Section 2.5(3), then upon written notice by General Atlantic to the Company at any time prior to December 31 of the year preceding the next meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the Post-IPO GA Nominee would have been elected but for such expiration, and subject to the Board’s fiduciary obligations to the Company and its stockholders, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board at any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors one (1) director nominated by General Atlantic (the “Post-Expiration GA Nominee”), and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the election of such designee to the Board, including nominating the Post-Expiration GA Nominee to be elected as a director, recommending such individual’s election and soliciting proxies or consents in favor thereof.

3.2Subject to the terms hereof, if after the Post-IPO Expiration Time, the Post-Expiration GA Nominee is entitled to be nominated for election to the Board pursuant to Section 3.1 and is not elected to serve on the Board, then the Company shall invite the Post-Expiration GA Nominee to attend all meetings of its Board (and any committee thereof) in a nonvoting observer capacity and, in this respect, shall give the Post-Expiration GA Nominee copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials that it provides to its directors subject to the Post-Expiration GA Nominee signing a customary non-disclosure and board observer agreement. The Company shall promptly reimburse the Post-Expiration GA Nominee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board or any committee thereof.

3.3This Section 3 shall terminate and have no further force or effect upon the earliest to occur of (1) such time that General Atlantic elects, in its sole discretion, to terminate its rights hereunder, (2) such time that General Atlantic ceases to own at least the GA Post-IPO Share Threshold, or (3) immediately prior to the consummation of a Change of Control Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, the holders of the Common Stock (in their capacities as such) shall have no obligations pursuant to Section 3.1 (including, without limitation, any obligation to vote in favor of the Post-Expiration GA Nominee).
