The number of authorized shares of any of the Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL (or any successor provision thereto), and no vote of the holders of any of the Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock or Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor, unless a vote of any such holder is required pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock).

Section 5.2.                                Common Stock. The powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are as follows:

(A)                               Voting Rights. Except as otherwise required by the DGCL or as provided by or pursuant to the provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation:

(3)                                 Except as otherwise required in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote (or, if any holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to

vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with such holders of Preferred Stock).

(4)                                 In addition to any other vote required in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall each be entitled to vote separately as a class only with respect to amendments to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that increase or decrease the par value of the shares of such class or alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the shares of such class so as to affect them adversely.

(5)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall have no voting power with respect to, and shall not be entitled to vote on, any amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.

(B)                               Dividends and Distributions. Subject to any other provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, holders of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive ratably, in proportion to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock held by them, such dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property of the Corporation when, as and if declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor. Except as provided in Section 5.2(D), dividends and other distributions shall not be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock.

(C)                               Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up (either voluntary or involuntary) of the Corporation, after payments to creditors of the Corporation that may at the time be outstanding, and subject to the rights of any holders of Preferred Stock that may then be outstanding, holders of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive ratably, in proportion to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock held by them, all remaining assets and funds of the Corporation available for distribution. The holders of shares of Class B Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to receive any assets of the Corporation in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation.

(D)                               Reclassification. Except as set forth in Section 5.2(G), neither the Class A Common Stock nor the Class B Common Stock may be subdivided, consolidated, reclassified or otherwise changed unless contemporaneously therewith the other class of Common Stock and the LLC Units (as defined below) are subdivided, consolidated, reclassified or otherwise changed in the same proportion and in the same manner.

(E)                               Exchange. The holder of each membership interest unit (“LLC Unit”) of SDC Financial LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SDC Financial”), designated as a

“Common Unit” (such unit a “Common Unit” and such holder a “Member”), other than Common Units held by the Corporation or its subsidiaries, shall, pursuant to terms and subject to the conditions of the limited liability company operating agreement of SDC Financial (the “LLC Agreement”), has the right (the “Redemption Right”) to redeem such Common Unit for the applicable Cash Amount or Share Offering Funding Amount (each as defined in the LLC Agreement), subject to the Corporation’s right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to elect to acquire some or all of such Common Units that such Member has tendered for redemption for a number of shares of Class A Common Stock, an amount of cash or a combination of both (the “Exchange Option”), in the case of each of the Redemption Right and the Exchange Option, on and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and in the LLC Agreement.

(1)                                 In connection with the Corporation’s exercise of the Exchange Option under the LLC Agreement, the Corporation shall issue to such Member a number of shares of Class A Common Stock as determined by the terms and provisions of the LLC Agreement in exchange for the Common Units that have been tendered by such Member in its exercise of the Redemption Right and that the Corporation has elected to acquire pursuant to the Exchange Option, subject, at all times, to the Corporation’s right, in accordance with the terms and provisions of LLC Agreement, to elect to deliver cash in lieu of issuing shares of Class A Common Stock, or to elect to deliver a combination of shares of Class A Common Stock and cash, with the form and allocation of consideration determined by the Corporation in its sole discretion. No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock shall be issued upon the Corporation’s exercise of the Exchange Option. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the Member would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay to the Member cash equal to the Value of the fractional shares of Class A Common Stock.

(2)                                 Concurrently with any redemption of Common Units pursuant to the Redemption Right or exchange of Common Units pursuant to the Exchange Option, a number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such Member equal to the number of Common Units redeemed or exchanged shall be automatically, without further action by such Member or the Corporation, transferred to the Corporation for no consideration and shall be retired and resume the status of authorized and unissued shares of Class B Common Stock, and all rights of such Member with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall thereupon cease and terminate.

(3)                                 The following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i)                                     “Value” means, on any Valuation Date with respect to a share of Class A Common Stock, the average of the daily Market Prices for ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Valuation Date.

(ii)                                  “Market Price” on any date means, with respect to any outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, the last sale price for such shares of Class A Common Stock, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, for such shares of Class A Common Stock, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or

admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market or, if such shares of Class A Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, as reported on the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which such shares of Class A Common Stock are listed or admitted to trading or, if such shares of Class A Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price, or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by the principal automated quotation system that may then be in use or, if such shares of Class A Common Stock are not quoted by any such system, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in such shares of Class A Common Stock selected by the Board of Directors or, in the event that no trading price is available for such shares of Class A Common Stock, the fair market value of the shares of Class A Common Stock, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

(iii)                               “Valuation Date” means, the date of receipt by the Manager of SDC Financial of a Notice of Redemption (as defined in the LLC Agreement), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the LLC Agreement, or such other date as specified herein, or, if such date is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day.

(4)                                 Such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as may from time to time be required for exchange pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2(E)(1) shall be reserved for issuance upon exchange of outstanding Common Units.

(F)                                Transfers.

(1)                                 Without limiting any Member’s ability to effect an exchange of Common Units in compliance with Section 5.2, no holder of Class B Common Stock shall be permitted to consummate a sale, pledge, conveyance, hypothecation, assignment or other transfer (“Transfer”) of Class B Common Stock other than as part of a concurrent Transfer of an equal number of Common Units made to the same transferee in compliance with the restrictions on transfer contained in the LLC Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, whether pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (as defined in the LLC Agreement) or with the consent of the Manager of SDC Financial). Any purported Transfer of Class B Common Stock not in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.2(F)(1) shall be void ab initio.

(2)                                 The Corporation may, as a condition to the Transfer or the registration of Transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock, require the furnishing of such affidavits or other proof as it deems necessary to establish whether such Transfer is permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 5.2(F)(1).

(G)                              Adjustments to Relevant Securities. In the event of any split or reverse split of any of the Relevant Securities (as defined below), or a distribution of any Relevant Securities to the holders of such Relevant Securities, unless a similar transaction is effected with

respect to the other types of Relevant Securities, references herein to a number of shares or units of any type of Relevant Securities, or a ratio of one type of Relevant Securities to another, shall be deemed adjusted as appropriate to reflect such split, reverse split or distribution. For example, if there is a one-for-two reverse split of Common Units, but no similar reverse split of shares of Class B Common Stock, and a holder of Common Units and shares of Class B Common Stock subsequently tenders such units for redemption pursuant to the Redemption Right or the Exchange Option, then the number of such holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock that will be automatically converted to shares of Class A Common Stock will be equal to twice the number of Common Units tendered for redemption. “Relevant Securities” means Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, and Common Units.

(H)                              Retirement of Class B Common Stock. In the event that (i) any LLC Unit is consolidated or otherwise cancelled or retired or (ii) any outstanding share of Class B Common Stock otherwise shall cease to be held by a holder of a corresponding LLC Unit, in each case, whether as a result of exchange, reclassification, redemption or otherwise, then the corresponding share of Class B Common Stock (in the case of (i)) or such share of Class B Common Stock (in the case of (ii)) shall automatically and without further action on the part of the Corporation or any holder of Class B Common Stock be transferred to the Corporation for no consideration and thereupon shall be retired and restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Class B Common Stock.

(I)                                   No Preemptive or Subscription Rights. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to preemptive or subscription rights.

Section 5.3.                                Preferred Stock.

(A)                               The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to provide, out of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock, for the issuance of all or any shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more classes or series, and to fix for each such class or series such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such distinctive designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such class or series and as may be permitted by the DGCL, including, without limitation, the authority to provide that any such class or series may be (i) subject to redemption at such time or times and at such price or prices; (ii) entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative) at such rates, on such conditions, and at such times, and payable in preference to, or in such relation to, the dividends payable on any other class or classes or any other series; (iii) entitled to such rights upon the dissolution of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation; or (iv) convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of stock, or of any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock, of the Corporation at such price or prices or at such rates of exchange and with such adjustments; all as may be stated in such resolution or resolutions.

(B)                               Except as otherwise required by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, holders of a series of Preferred Stock shall be entitled only to

such voting rights, if any, as shall expressly be granted thereto by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to such series).

ARTICLE VI

Section 6.1.                                Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation. The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation; provided, however, that the following provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation may be amended, altered, repealed or rescinded, in whole or in part, or any provision inconsistent therewith or herewith may be adopted, only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the total voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class: this Article VI, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX and Article X.

Section 6.2.                                Amendment of Bylaws. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred upon it by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors shall have the power to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Corporation’s By-Laws (as in effect from time to time, the “Bylaws”). The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the entire Board shall be required to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The Bylaws also may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote in connection with the election of directors of the Corporation.

ARTICLE VII

Section 7.1.                                Board of Directors.

(A)                               Except as otherwise provided in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. Except as otherwise provided for or fixed pursuant to the provisions of Article V (including any certificate of designation with respect to any series of Preferred Stock) and this Article VII relating to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors, the total number of directors constituting the whole Board of Directors shall be determined from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors with a maximum of fifteen (15) directors. The directors (other than those directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more other such series, as the case may be) shall be divided into three classes designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as possible, of one-third (1/3) of the total number of such directors. The initial division of the Board of Directors into classes shall be made by the decision of the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board. Class I directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO Date, Class II directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the second annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO Date and Class III directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the third annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO Date or, in each case, upon such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. At each

succeeding annual meeting of stockholders commencing with the first annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO Date, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a three (3)-year term and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. If the total number of such directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any such additional director of any class elected to fill a newly created directorship resulting from an increase in such class or from the removal from office, death, disability, resignation or disqualification of a director or other cause shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case shall a decrease in the total number of directors have the effect of removing or shortening the term of any incumbent director. Any such director shall hold office until the annual meeting at which his or her term expires and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws shall so provide.

(B)                               Subject to the rights granted to the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, (i) any newly created directorship on the Board of Directors that results from an increase in the total number of directors shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office (other than directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, as the case may be), provided that a quorum is present, and (ii) and any other vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors (whether by death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other cause) shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office (other than directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, as the case may be), although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Any director elected to fill a newly created directorship or other vacancy shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

(C)                               Any or all of the directors (other than the directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more other such series, as the case may be) may be removed at any time, but only for cause, by the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of all outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. Any director may resign at any time in accordance with the Bylaws.

(D)                               During any period when the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more other such series, have the right to elect additional directors pursuant to the provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation with respect to any series of Preferred Stock) in respect of such series, then upon commencement and for the duration of the period during which such right continues: (i) the then otherwise total number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be increased by such specified number of directors, and the holders of such series of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect the additional directors so provided for or fixed pursuant to said provisions, and (ii) each such additional director shall serve until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such

director’s right to hold such office terminates pursuant to said provisions, whichever occurs earlier, subject to his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal. Except as otherwise provided by the Board of Directors in the resolution or resolutions establishing such series, whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect additional directors are divested of such right pursuant to the provisions of such Preferred Stock, the terms of office of all such additional directors elected by the holders of such Preferred Stock, or elected to fill any vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, disqualification or removal of such additional directors, shall forthwith terminate and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

(E)                               In addition to the powers and authority hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws; provided, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted by the stockholders shall invalidate any prior act of the directors that would have been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.1.                                Limitation on Liability of Directors. No director shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided, however, that to the extent required by the provisions of Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL or any successor statute, or any other laws of the State of Delaware, this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended after the date of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this Section 8.1 shall not adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability or any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

Section 8.2.                                Indemnification of Directors

(A)                               The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as now or hereafter in effect, and such right to indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives; provided, however, that, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized

or consented to by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification conferred by this Article VIII shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer receiving advancement to repay the amount advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under this Article VIII.

(B)                               The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article VIII to directors and officers of the Corporation.

(C)                               The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

(D)                               Any repeal or modification of this Article VIII by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director or officer of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

At any time when the Voting Group beneficially owns, in the aggregate, at least thirty percent (30%) of the total voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL. At any time when the Voting Group beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of such holders and may not be effected by any consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting unless such action is unanimously recommended by the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of Class B Common Stock, voting separately as a class, or, to the extent expressly permitted by the certificate of designation relating to one or more series of Preferred Stock, by the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more other such series, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of the relevant class or series having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be

necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

Section 9.2.                                Special Meetings of the Stockholders. Except as otherwise required by law and subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time only by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

An annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting shall be held at such place, if any, on such date and at such time as shall be fixed exclusively by resolution of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof.

Section 10.1.                         DGCL Section 203 and Business Combinations.

(A)                               The Corporation shall be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL at all times at which the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the Voting Group represent at least fifteen percent (15%) of the Class B Common Stock held by the Voting Group as of the IPO Date.

(ii)                                  any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions), except proportionately as a stockholder of the Corporation, to or with the interested stockholder, whether as part of a dissolution or otherwise, of assets of the Corporation or of any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation which assets have an aggregate market value equal to ten percent (10%) or more of either the aggregate market value of all the assets of the Corporation determined on a consolidated basis or the aggregate market value of all the outstanding stock of the Corporation;

(iii)                               any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the Corporation or by any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation of any stock of the Corporation or of such subsidiary to the interested stockholder, except: (a) pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which securities were outstanding prior to the time that the interested stockholder became such; (b) pursuant to a merger under

Section 251(g) of the DGCL; (c) pursuant to a dividend or distribution paid or made, or the exercise, exchange or conversion of securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into stock of the Corporation or any such subsidiary which security is distributed, pro rata to all holders of a class or series of stock of the Corporation subsequent to the time the interested stockholder became such; (d) pursuant to an exchange offer by the Corporation to purchase stock made on the same terms to all holders of said stock; or (e) any issuance or transfer of stock by the Corporation; provided, however, that in no case under items (c) through (e) of this Section 10.1(C)(3)(iii) shall there be an increase in the interested stockholder’s proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the Corporation or of the voting stock of the Corporation (except as a result of immaterial changes due to fractional share adjustments);

A person who is the owner of twenty percent (20%) or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such person holds voting stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this Section 10.1, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such entity.

(5)                                 “interested stockholder” means any person (other than the Corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) that (i) is the owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation or (ii) is an affiliate or associate of the Corporation and was the owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Corporation at any time within the three (3)-year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder; and the affiliates and associates of such person; but “interested

stockholder” shall not include (a) the Voting Group or any of their respective affiliates or successors or any “group,” or any member of any such group, to which such persons are a party under Rule 13d-5 of the Exchange Act, or (b) any person whose ownership of shares in excess of the fifteen percent (15%) limitation set forth herein is the result of any action taken solely by the Corporation; provided, however, that in the case of clause (b), such person shall be an interested stockholder if thereafter such person acquires additional shares of voting stock of the Corporation, except as a result of further corporate action not caused, directly or indirectly, by such person. For the purpose of determining whether a person is an interested stockholder, the voting stock of the Corporation deemed to be outstanding shall include stock deemed to be owned by the person through application of the definition of “owner” below but shall not include any other unissued stock of the Corporation that may be issuable pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options, or otherwise.

(i)                                     beneficially owns such stock, directly or indirectly;

(ii)                                  has (a) the right to acquire such stock (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of stock tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by such person or any of such person’s affiliates or associates until such tendered stock is accepted for purchase or exchange, or (b) the right to vote such stock pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding; provided, however, that a person shall not be deemed the owner of any stock because of such person’s right to vote such stock if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such stock arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made to ten or more persons; or

(iii)                               has any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (b) of subsection (ii) above), or disposing of such stock with any other person that beneficially owns, or whose affiliates or associates beneficially own, directly or indirectly, such stock.

(7)                                 “person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity.

(8)                                 “stock” means, with respect to any corporation, capital stock and, with respect to any other entity, any equity interest.

(9)                                 “voting stock” means stock of any class or series entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.

ARTICLE XI

Section 11.1.                         Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the provisions of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors, officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to or for the benefit of the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Section 11.2.                         Forum. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, stockholder or employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director, officer or employee of the Corporation arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (as each may be amended and/or restated from time to time), or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director, officer or employee of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine, provided, however, that, in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in each such case, unless the Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) has dismissed a prior action by the same plaintiff asserting the same claims because such court lacked personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party named as a defendant therein. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the Corporation irreparable harm and the Corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 11.2.

If the chairman of an Annual Meeting determines that business was not properly brought before the Annual Meeting in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the chairman shall declare to the meeting that the business was not properly brought before the meeting and such business shall not be transacted.

(f)            Nothing contained in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision of law).

The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation and to determine the independence of such director under the Exchange Act and rules and regulations thereunder and applicable stock exchange rules.

(d)           A stockholder providing notice of any nomination proposed to be made at an Annual Meeting or Special Meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting or Special Meeting, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to or be mailed and received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of such Annual Meeting or Special Meeting.

(e)           No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.5. If the Chairman of the meeting determines that a nomination was not made in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the Chairman shall declare to the meeting that the nomination was defective and such defective nomination shall be disregarded.

Section 2.6            Notice. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a Special Meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by law, written notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting.

Section 2.7            Adjournments. Any meeting of the stockholders may be adjourned from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record

6

date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.6 hereof shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting.

Section 2.8            Quorum. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business. A quorum, once established, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 2.7 hereof, until a quorum shall be present or represented.

Section 2.9            Voting. Unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, or permitted by the rules of any stock exchange on which the Corporation’s shares are listed and traded, any question brought before any meeting of the stockholders, other than the election of directors, shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the total number of votes of the Corporation’s capital stock represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on such question, voting as a single class. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to Section 2.13(a) hereof, each stockholder represented at a meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote for each share of the capital stock entitled to vote thereat held by such stockholder; provided, however, that until 5:00 p.m. in New York City, New York on the earlier of (i) the ten (10)-year anniversary of the IPO Date (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) or (ii) the date on which the shares of Class B Common Stock (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) beneficially held by the Voting Group (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) represent less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Class B Common Stock held by the Voting Group as of the IPO Date, each holder of shares of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to cast ten (10) votes for each share of Class B Common Stock. Such votes may be cast in person or by proxy as provided in Section 2.10 hereof. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, or the officer of the Corporation presiding at a meeting of the stockholders, in such officer’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

Section 2.10          Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted upon after three years from its date, unless such proxy provides for a longer period. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority:

(a)           A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent

7

signing such writing or causing such person’s signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

(b)           A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such telegrams, cablegrams or other electronic transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information on which they relied.

(c)           Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission authorizing another person or persons to act as proxy for a stockholder may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided, however, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

Section 2.11          Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. If and to the extent provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken at any Annual or Special Meeting of Stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this Section 2.11 and, if applicable, Section 2.13(b) hereof, to the Corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. A telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxyholder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder, shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for the purposes of this Section 2.11, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission

8

sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Corporation can determine (i) that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxyholder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxyholder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or proxyholder or authorized person or persons transmitted such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission. The date on which such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission is transmitted shall be deemed to be the date on which such consent was signed. No consent given by telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been delivered until such consent is reproduced in paper form and until such paper form shall be delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used, provided, however, that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided above in this Section 2.11.

Section 2.12          List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The officer of the Corporation who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

Section 2.13          Record Date.

(a)           In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

(b)           In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. Any stockholder of record seeking to have the stockholders authorize or take corporate action by written consent shall, by written notice to the Secretary of the Corporation, request the Board of Directors to fix a record date. The Board of Directors shall promptly, but in all events within ten (10) days after the date on which such a request is received, adopt a resolution fixing the record date. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors (within ten (10) days of the date on which such a request is received, in the case of a stockholder request), the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of the stockholders are recorded, to the attention of the Secretary of the Corporation. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 2.14          Stock Ledger. The stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger, the list required by Section 2.12 hereof or the books of the Corporation, or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders.

Section 2.15          Conduct of Meetings. The Board of Directors of the Corporation may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of any

10

meeting of the stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) the determination of when the polls shall open and close for any given matter to be voted on at the meeting; (iii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iv) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (v) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (vi) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants.

Section 2.16          Inspectors of Election. In advance of any meeting of the stockholders, the Board of Directors, by resolution, the Chairman or the President shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. One or more other persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. The inspector shall have the duties prescribed by law and shall take charge of the polls and, when the vote is completed, shall make a certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by applicable law.

ARTICLE III
DIRECTORS

Section 3.1            Number and Election of Directors. Subject to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the number of directors shall be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors. Except as provided in Section 3.2 hereof, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Directors need not be stockholders. The directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire Board of Directors. The initial division of the Board of Directors into classes shall be made by the decision of the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors. The term of the initial Class I directors shall terminate on the date of the 2020 Annual Meeting; the term of the initial Class II directors shall terminate on the date of the 2021 Annual Meeting; and the term of the initial Class III directors shall terminate on the date of the 2022 Annual Meeting or, in each case, upon such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. At each succeeding Annual Meeting of Stockholders beginning in 2020, successors to the

11

class of directors whose term expires at that Annual Meeting shall be elected for a three-year term and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. If the total number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any additional director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class or from the removal from office, death, disability, resignation or disqualification of a director or other cause shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors have the effect of removing or shortening the term of any incumbent director.

Section 3.2            Vacancies. Unless otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation (a) any vacancy on the Board of Directors or any committee thereof that results from an increase in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors or such committee may be filled by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, provided that a quorum is present, and (b) any other vacancy occurring on the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, resulting from death, resignation, removal, or otherwise, may be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. In the case of the Board of Directors, any director of any class elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of directors of such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class and any director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his or her predecessor, in each case until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. In the case of any committee of the Board of Directors, any director of any class elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office until his or her successor is duly appointed by the Board of Directors or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

Section 3.3            Duties and Powers. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-Laws required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

Section 3.4            Meetings. The Board of Directors and any committee thereof may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the State of Delaware. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may be held without notice at such time and at such place as may from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors or such committee, respectively. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman, if there be one, the President, or by any director. Special meetings of any committee of the Board of Directors may be called by the chairman of such committee, if there be one, the President, or any director serving on such committee. Notice thereof stating the place, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each director (or, in the case of a committee, to each member of such committee) either by mail not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the date of the meeting, by telephone, telegram or electronic means on twenty-four (24) hours’ notice, or

12

on such shorter notice as the person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

Section 3.5            Organization. At each meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the chairman of such committee, as the case may be, or, in his or her absence or if there be none, a director chosen by a majority of the directors present, shall act as chairman. Except as provided below, the Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary at each meeting of the Board of Directors and of each committee thereof. In case the Secretary shall be absent from any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof, an Assistant Secretary shall perform the duties of secretary at such meeting; and in the absence from any such meeting of the Secretary and all the Assistant Secretaries, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the members of each committee of the Board of Directors may appoint any person to act as secretary of any meeting of such committee and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Corporation may, but need not if such committee so elects, serve in such capacity.

Section 3.6            Resignations and Removals of Directors. Any director of the Corporation may resign from the Board of Directors or any committee thereof at any time, by giving notice in writing or by electronic transmission to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if there be one, the President or the Secretary of the Corporation and, in the case of a committee, to the chairman of such committee, if there be one. Such resignation shall take effect at the time therein specified or, if no time is specified, immediately; and, unless otherwise specified in such notice, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of shares of preferred stock then outstanding, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause, and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority in voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote in the election of directors. Any director serving on a committee of the Board of Directors may be removed from such committee at any time by the Board of Directors.

Section 3.7            Quorum. Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Corporation’s securities are listed or quoted for trading, at all meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, a majority of the entire Board of Directors or a majority of the directors constituting such committee, as the case may be, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors or committee members present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors or such committee, as applicable. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof, the directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting of the time and place of the adjourned meeting, until a quorum shall be present. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may

13

continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors, if any action taken is approved by a majority of the required quorum for that meeting.

Section 3.8            Actions of the Board by Written Consent. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all the members of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, and the writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such committee. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

Section 3.9            Meetings by Means of Conference Telephone. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or any committee thereof, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or such committee by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

Section 3.10          Committees. The Board of Directors may designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. Each member of a committee must meet the requirements for membership, if any, imposed by applicable law and the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading. The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of any such committee. Subject to the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the securities of the Corporation are listed or quoted for trading, in the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, and in the absence of a designation by the Board of Directors of an alternate member to replace the absent or disqualified member, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another qualified member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any absent or disqualified member. Any committee, to the extent permitted by law and provided in the resolution establishing such committee, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it. Each committee shall keep regular minutes and report to the Board of Directors when required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III, the resolution of the Board of Directors establishing any committee of the Board of Directors and/or the charter of any such committee may establish requirements or procedures relating to the governance and/or operation of such committee that are different from, or in addition to, those set forth in these By-Laws and, to the extent that there is any

14

inconsistency between these By-Laws and any such resolution or charter, the terms of such resolution or charter shall be controlling.

Section 3.11          Compensation. The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary for service as director, payable in cash or securities. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for service as committee members.

Section 3.12          Interested Directors. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are directors or officers or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because any such director’s or officer’s vote is counted for such purpose if: (i) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to the director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

Section 4.5            President. The President shall, subject to the control of the Board of Directors and, if there be one, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, have general supervision of the business of the Corporation and shall see that all orders and resolutions of the Board of Directors are carried into effect. The President shall execute all bonds, mortgages, contracts and other instruments of the Corporation requiring a seal, under the seal of the Corporation, if any, except where required or permitted by law to be otherwise signed and executed and except that the other officers of the Corporation may sign and execute documents when so authorized by these By-Laws, the Board of Directors or the President.

If the Secretary shall be unable or shall refuse to cause to be given notice of all meetings of the stockholders and special meetings of the Board of Directors, and if there be no Assistant Secretary, then either the Board of Directors or the President may choose another officer to cause such notice to be given. The Secretary shall have custody of the seal of the Corporation and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary, if there be one, shall have authority to affix the same to any instrument requiring it and when so affixed, it may be attested by the signature of the Secretary or by the signature of any such Assistant Secretary. The Board of Directors may give general authority to any other officer to affix the seal of the Corporation and to attest to the affixing by such officer’s signature. The Secretary shall see that all books, reports, statements, certificates and other documents and records required by law to be kept or filed are properly kept or filed, as the case may be.

If

17

required by the Board of Directors, the Treasurer shall give the Corporation a bond in such sum and with such surety or sureties as shall be satisfactory to the Board of Directors for the faithful performance of the duties of the office of the Treasurer and for the restoration to the Corporation, in case of the Treasurer’s death, resignation, retirement or removal from office, of all books, papers, vouchers, money and other property of whatever kind in the Treasurer’s possession or under the Treasurer’s control belonging to the Corporation.

Section 5.2            Signatures. To the extent any shares are represented by certificates, any or all of the signatures on a certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar

18

before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Section 5.3            Lost Certificates. The Board of Directors may direct a new certificate or uncertificated shares be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issuance of a new certificate or uncertificated shares, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner’s legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as the Board of Directors shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

Section 5.4            Transfers. Stock of the Corporation shall be transferable in the manner prescribed by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation and these By-Laws. Transfers of stock shall be made on the books of the Corporation, and in the case of certificated shares of stock, only by the person named in the certificate or by such person’s attorney lawfully constituted in writing and upon the surrender of the certificate therefor, properly endorsed for transfer and payment of all necessary transfer taxes; or, in the case of uncertificated shares of stock, upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered holder of the shares or by such person’s attorney lawfully constituted in writing, and upon payment of all necessary transfer taxes and compliance with appropriate procedures for transferring shares in uncertificated form; provided, however, that such surrender and endorsement (to the extent any shares are represented by certificates), compliance or payment of taxes shall not be required in any case in which the officers of the Corporation shall determine to waive such requirement. With respect to certificated shares of stock, every certificate exchanged, returned or surrendered to the Corporation shall be marked “Cancelled,” with the date of cancellation, by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or the transfer agent thereof. No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the Corporation for any purpose until it shall have been entered in the stock records of the Corporation by an entry showing from and to whom transferred.

Section 5.5            Dividend Record Date. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

19

Section 5.6            Record Owners. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and to hold liable for calls and assessments a person registered on its books as the owner of shares, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise required by law.

ARTICLE VI
NOTICES

Section 6.1            Notices. Whenever written notice is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, to be given to any director, member of a committee or stockholder, such notice may be given by mail, addressed to such director, member of a committee or stockholder, at such person’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid, and such notice shall be deemed to be given at the time when the same shall be deposited in the United States mail. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission if consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed to be revoked if (i) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two (2) consecutive notices by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (ii) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, that the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action. Notice given by electronic transmission, as described above, shall be deemed given: (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (iii) if by a posting on an electronic network, together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and (iv) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder. Notice to directors or committee members may be given personally or by telegram, telex, cable or by means of electronic transmission.

Section 6.2            Waivers of Notice. Whenever any notice is required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, to be given to any director, member of a committee or stockholder, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the

20

person or persons entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent thereto. Attendance of a person at a meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any Annual or Special Meeting of Stockholders or any regular or special meeting of the directors or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.

ARTICLE VII
GENERAL PROVISIONS

Dividends upon the capital stock of the Corporation, subject to the requirements of the DGCL and the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, if any, may be declared by the Board of Directors at any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors (or any action by written consent in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 3.8 hereof), and may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the Corporation available for dividends such sum or sums as the Board of Directors from time to time, in its absolute discretion, deems proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or for purchasing any of the shares of capital stock, warrants, rights, options, bonds, debentures, notes, scrip or other securities or evidences of indebtedness of the Corporation, or for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any property of the Corporation, or for any proper purpose, and the Board of Directors may modify or abolish any such reserve.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1            Actions Not By or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 8.3 hereof, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a

21

director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, SDC Financial, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SDC Financial”)), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 8.2            Actions By or in the Right of the Corporation. Subject to Section 8.3 hereof, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, SDC Financial), against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 8.3            Authorization of Indemnification. Any indemnification under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person

22

or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the Corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Section 8.4            Good Faith Defined. For purposes of any determination under Section 8.3 hereof, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant, financial advisor, appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this Section 8.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof, as the case may be.

Section 8.5            Indemnification by a Court. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 8.3 hereof, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 8.3 hereof nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall be given to the Corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

Section 8.6            Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the

23

Corporation as authorized in this Article VIII. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.

Section 8.7            Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-Laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article VIII shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof but whom the Corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the DGCL, or otherwise.

Section 8.8            Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, SDC Financial) against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.

Section 8.9            Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “the Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors or officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, SDC Financial), shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Article VIII shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, SDC Financial) of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent. For purposes of this Article VIII, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of

24

the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this Article VIII.

Section 8.10          Survival of Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Section 8.11          Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 8.5 hereof), the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) or advance expenses in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

Section 8.12          Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Corporation similar to those conferred in this Article VIII to directors and officers of the Corporation.

ARTICLE IX
FORUM FOR ADJUDICATION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES

Section 9.1            Forum for Adjudication of Certain Disputes. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (an “Alternative Forum Consent”), the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation arising out of or relating to any provision of the General Corporation Law of Delaware or the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any director, officer, stockholder, employee or agent of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that, in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, the sole and exclusive forum for such action or proceeding shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in each such case, unless the Court of Chancery (or such other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, as applicable) has dismissed a

25

prior action by the same plaintiff asserting the same claims because such court lacked personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party named as a defendant therein. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions would cause the Corporation irreparable harm and the Corporation shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce the foregoing provisions. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 9.1. The existence of any prior Alternative Forum Consent shall not act as a waiver of the Corporation’s ongoing consent right as set forth above in this Section 9.1 with respect to any current or future actions or claims.

ARTICLE X
AMENDMENTS

Section 10.1          Amendments. These By-Laws may be altered, amended or repealed, in whole or in part, or new By-Laws may be adopted by the stockholders or by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that notice of such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new By-Laws be contained in the notice of such meeting of the stockholders or Board of Directors, as the case may be. All such amendments must be approved by either the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of outstanding capital stock entitled to vote thereon or by a majority of the entire Board of Directors then in office.

Section 10.2          Entire Board of Directors. As used in this Article X and in these By-Laws generally, the term “entire Board of Directors” means the total number of directors which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies.

occurred as of such time) and (y) the denominator of which shall be the actual number of Class A Shares (determined without the above assumption) issued and outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments to the Adjustment Factor will be made for any class or series of Units to the extent that the Company makes or effects any correlative distribution or payment to all of the Members holding Units of such class or series, or effects any correlative split or reverse split in respect of the Units of such class or series.

Section 3.8                                    Other Contribution Provisions. In the event that any Member is admitted to the Company and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the Company, such transaction shall be treated by the Company and the affected Member as if the Company had compensated such Member in cash and such Member had contributed the cash to the capital of the Company in accordance with the principles promulgated in proposed Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1. In addition, with the consent of the Manager, one or more Members (including the Manager) may enter into contribution agreements with the Company which have the effect of providing a guarantee of certain obligations of the Company.

ARTICLE IV

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 4.1                                    Requirement and Characterization of Distributions. From time to time, as determined by the Manager, the Manager shall cause the Company to pay distributions, in such amounts as the Manager may determine, to the Holders of Common Units pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests as of the close of business on the applicable Company Record Date. Distributions payable with respect to any Units that were not outstanding during the entire period in respect of which any distribution is made (other than any Units issued to a Member in connection with the issuance of Common Shares or Capital Shares by SDC Inc.) shall be prorated based on the portion of the period that such Units were outstanding.

Section 4.2                                    Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make distributions to each Member, pro rata in accordance with Members’ respective Percentage Interests of Units on the applicable Company Record Date, in an amount equal to (i) an amount that is at least sufficient for each Member to pay the Annual Income Tax Liability attributable to such Member with respect to the portion of the applicable Taxable Year that has elapsed as of the date of such distribution minus (ii) the sum of all distributions previously made pursuant to this Section 4.2 with respect to the Units held by such Member as of the applicable Company Record Date with respect to such Taxable Year. All distributions made to Members pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be treated as advance distributions and shall be taken into account in determining the amount subsequently distributed to Members under Section 4.1. The amounts distributable

23

pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be calculated and distributed (a) quarterly, on an estimated basis, with respect to the portion of the Taxable Year through the end of such quarterly period, at least five (5) days prior to the date on which U.S. federal corporate estimated tax payments are due for such quarter, or (b) with respect to each Taxable Year, as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of such Taxable Year (or as soon as reasonably practicable after any event that subsequently adjusts the taxable income of such Taxable Year), provided, however, that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make any distribution pursuant to this Section 4.2 with respect to a particular quarter on a date that is at least three (3) business days prior to the Specified Redemption Date for such quarter, if applicable.

Section 4.3                                    Distributions in Kind. No Holder may demand to receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. The Manager may cause the Company to make a distribution in kind of Company assets or Units to the Holders, and such assets or Units shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value (as determined by the Manager, whose determination shall be conclusive) is distributed and allocated in accordance with Articles IV, V and IX.

Section 4.4                                    Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state or local tax Law and Section 9.5 with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to any Holder shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to such Holder pursuant to Section 4.1, except as provided in Section 9.5.

Section 4.5                                    Distributions upon Liquidation. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article IV, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the assets of the Company shall be distributed to the holders of Units in accordance with Section 13.2 and Section 13.3.

Section 4.6                                    Revisions to Reflect Additional Units. In the event that the Company issues additional Units pursuant to the provisions of Article III, the Manager is hereby authorized to make such revisions to this Article IV and to Article V as it determines are necessary or desirable to reflect the issuance of such additional Units, including making preferential distributions to certain classes of Units.

Section 4.7                                    Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Company nor the Manager, on behalf of the Company, shall make a distribution to any Holder if such distribution would violate the Delaware Act or other applicable Law.

Section 4.8                                    Calculation of Distributions. In calculating all distributions payable to any holders of Units, the Manager shall round the amount per unit to the nearest whole cent ($0.01), with one-half cent rounded upward.

24

ARTICLE V

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATIONS

Section 5.1                                    Capital Accounts.

(a)                                 The Company shall maintain a separate Capital Account for each Member according to the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). For this purpose, the Company may (as determined by the Manager), upon the occurrence of the events specified in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), increase or decrease the Capital Accounts in accordance with the rules of such Treasury Regulations and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) to reflect a revaluation of Company property.

(b)                                 For purposes of computing the amount of any item of Company income, gain, loss or deduction to be allocated pursuant to this Article V and to be reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Members, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for this purpose); provided, however, that:

(i)                                     The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall include those items described in Section 705(a)(l)(B) or Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(ii)                                  If the Book Value of any Company property is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such property.

(iii)                               Items of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to the disposition of Company property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Book Value of such property.

(iv)                              Items of depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions with respect to Company property having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the property’s Book Value in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g).

(v)                                 To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Sections 732(d), 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, 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 asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis).

Section 5.2                                    Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, Net Profits and Net Losses for any Fiscal Year or Fiscal Period shall be allocated among the Capital Accounts of the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

25

Section 5.3                                    Regulatory Allocations.

(a)                                 Losses attributable to partner nonrecourse debt (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). If there is a net decrease during a Taxable Year in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(3)), Profits for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Taxable Years) shall be allocated to the Members in the amounts and of such character as determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 5.3(a) is intended to be a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback provision that complies with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(b)                                 Nonrecourse deductions (as determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for any Taxable Year shall be allocated pro rata among the Members in accordance with their Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3(a), if there is a net decrease in the Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member shall be allocated Profits for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Taxable Years) in the amounts and of such character as determined according to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704- 2(f). This Section 5.3(b) is intended to be a minimum gain chargeback provision that complies with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(c)                                  If any Member that unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or Distribution described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6) has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of any Taxable Year, computed after the application of Sections 5.3(a) and 5.3(b) but before the application of any other provision of this Article V, then Profits for such Taxable Year shall be allocated to such Member in proportion to, and to the extent of, such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. This Section 5.3(c) is intended to be a qualified income offset provision as described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith.

(d)                                 If the allocation of Net Losses to a Member as provided in Section 5.2 would create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, there shall be allocated to such Member only that amount of Losses as will not create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit. The Net Losses that would, absent the application of the preceding sentence, otherwise be allocated to such Member shall be allocated to the other Members in accordance with their relative Percentage Interests, subject to this Section 5.3(d).

(e)                                  Profits and Losses described in Section 5.1(b)(v) shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the manner that the adjustments to the Capital Accounts are required to be made pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(j), (k) and (m).

(f)                                   The allocations set forth in Sections 5.3(a) through and including 5.3(e) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and Section 1.704-2 and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. The Manager may modify the manner in which Capital Accounts are computed if the Manager determines such modification is necessary to comply with the Regulatory Allocations. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in

26

which the Members intend to allocate Profit and Loss of the Company or make Distributions. Accordingly, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article V, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, income, gain, deduction and loss shall be reallocated among the Members so as to eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations and thereby cause the respective Capital Accounts of the Members to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if Profit and Loss (and such other items of income, gain, deduction and loss) had been allocated without reference to the Regulatory Allocations. In addition, if in any Taxable Year there is a decrease in Minimum Gain, or in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, and application of the minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Section 5.3(a) or 5.3(b) would cause a distortion in the economic arrangement among the Members, the Manager may, if it is not reasonably expected that the Company will have sufficient other income to correct such distortion, request the Internal Revenue Service to waive either or both of such minimum gain chargeback requirements. If such request is granted, this Agreement shall be applied in such instance as if it did not contain such minimum gain chargeback requirement.

Section 5.4                                    Final Allocations. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement except Section 5.3, the Manager shall make appropriate adjustments to allocations of Profits and Losses to (or, if necessary, allocate items of gross income, gain, loss or deduction of the Company among) the Members upon the liquidation of the Company (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g)), the transfer of substantially all the Units (whether by sale or exchange or merger) or sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company, such that, to the maximum extent possible, the Capital Accounts of the Members are proportionate to their Percentage Interests. In each case, such adjustments or allocations shall occur, to the maximum extent possible, in the Taxable Year of the event requiring such adjustments or allocations.

Section 5.5                                    Tax Allocations.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.5, for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, each Company item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding Section 5.5(a), each Company item of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its Book Value using the traditional method set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).

(c)                                  If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 5.1(b), including adjustments to the Book Value of any Company asset in connection with the execution of this Agreement, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its Book Value using the traditional method set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).

27

(d)                                 Allocations of tax credits, tax credit recapture, and any items related thereto shall be allocated to the Members as determined by the Manager, taking into account the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii).

(e)                                  For purposes of determining a Member’s share of the Company’s “excess nonrecourse liabilities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s interest in income and gain shall be determined pursuant to any proper method, as reasonably determined by the Manager in compliance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3).

(f)                                   Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.5 are solely for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, Distributions or other Company items pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

MANAGEMENT

Section 6.1                                    Authority of Manager.

(a)                                 Except for situations in which the approval of one or more Non-Manager Members is specifically required by this Agreement, the Manager shall have full, exclusive and complete discretion to manage and control the business and affairs of the Company, to make all decisions affecting the business and affairs of the Company and to do, or cause to be done, any and all acts at the expense of the Company, as it deems necessary or appropriate to accomplish the purposes, conduct the business and direct the affairs of the Company. The Manager shall have the power and authority to bind the Company. The Manager may expressly delegate in writing to any other Person the power and authority to bind the Company. No such delegation shall cause the Manager to cease to be a Member or the Manager of the Company. The Manager shall be an agent of the Company, and the actions of the Manager taken in such capacity and in accordance with this Agreement shall bind the Company. The Manager shall at all times be a Member. The Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Manager, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, of all such powers and rights conferred on the Members by the Delaware Act with respect to the management and control of the Company. Except as otherwise required by Law or as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Non-Manager Members shall not participate in the control, management, direction or operation of the activities or affairs of the Company and shall have no power to act for or bind the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no Non-Manager Member shall be agent of the Company solely by virtue of being a Non-Manager Member, and no Non-Manager Member shall have the authority to act for the Company solely by virtue of being a Non-Manager Member. Any Non-Manager Member who takes any action or binds the Company in its capacity as a Member in violation of this Section 6.1 shall be solely responsible for any loss and expense incurred by the Company as a result of the unauthorized action and shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless with respect to the loss or expense. The transaction of any such business by or on behalf of the Manager, in its capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitation on the liability of the Members under this Agreement. For the

28

avoidance of doubt, the vote or approval required under this Agreement for any action taken by the Company shall govern and supersede any default voting standard set forth in the Delaware Act, including, without limitation, any default voting standard that requires unanimous consent of the Members.

(b)                                 The Manager on behalf of the Company may, from time to time, employ and retain individuals as may be necessary or appropriate for the conduct of the Company’s business, including employees, agents and other Persons (any of whom may be a Member) and any of whom may be designated as officers of the Company (each, an “Officer” and collectively, the “Officers”), with such titles as and to the extent authorized by the Manager. Officers need not be Members or residents of the State of Delaware. Each Officer shall hold office until his or her successor shall be duly designated and shall qualify or until his or her death or until he or she shall resign or shall have been removed in the manner hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall be made in writing and shall take effect at the time specified therein, or if no time is specified, at the time of its receipt by the Manager. The acceptance of a resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective, unless expressly so provided in the resignation. Any Officer may be removed as such, either with or without cause at any time by the Manager. Any one Person may hold more than one office. Subject to the other provisions in this Agreement, the salaries or other compensation, if any, of the employees, agents or Officers of the Company shall be fixed from time to time by the Manager. The employees, agents or Officers shall have the responsibility to carry on the Company’s business and affairs on a day-to-day basis and those other duties, authorities and responsibilities that the Manager may, from time to time, delegate. The existing Officers of the Company as of the Effective Time shall remain in their respective positions and shall be deemed to have been appointed by the Manager.

(c)                                  The Manager shall have the power and authority to effectuate the sale, lease, transfer, exchange or other disposition of any, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including the exercise or grant of any conversion, option, privilege or subscription right or any other right available in connection with any assets at any time held by the Company) or the merger, consolidation, reorganization, conversion or other combination of the Company with or into another entity.

(d)                                 Only the Manager may commence a voluntary case on behalf of, or an involuntary case against, the Company under a chapter of Title 11 U.S.C. by the filing of a “petition” (as defined in 11 U.S.C. 101(42)) with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. Any such petition filed by any other Member, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, shall be deemed an unauthorized and bad faith filing and all parties to this Agreement shall use their best efforts to cause such petition to be dismissed.

Section 6.2                                    Transactions Between Company and Manager or Officers. The Manager may cause the Company to contract and deal with the Manager, any Affiliate of the Manager, any director (or equivalent), officer or employee of the Manager or any Officer, on such terms and for such compensation as the Manager may determine. Persons retained, engaged or employed by the Company may also be engaged, retained or employed by and act on behalf of the Manager or any of its Affiliates.

29

Section 6.3                                    Rights to Engage in Other Business. Subject to Section 7.6, any director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of the Manager or the Company may acquire, own, hold and dispose of Units, for his or her individual account, and may exercise all rights of a Member to the same extent and in the same manner as if he or she were not a director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of the Manager or the Company. Any such director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent may be interested as a director (or equivalent), officer, trustee, stockholder, owner, partner, member, advisor or employee of, or otherwise have a direct or indirect interest in, (a) any Person who may be engaged to render advice or services to the Company, and may receive compensation from such Person as well as compensation as a director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of, or otherwise from, the Manager or the Company or (b) any Person to whom the Company may be engaged to render advice or services, and may receive compensation from such Person as well as compensation as a director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of, or otherwise from, the Manager or the Company. Any director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of the Manager or the Company may buy or sell property or services from or to the Company. Subject to Section 7.6, none of the foregoing positions, ownership interests or activities shall be deemed to conflict with his or her duties and powers as a director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of the Manager or the Company, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.3 is not intended to supersede or modify the express terms of any written agreement between or among any director (or equivalent), officer, employee or agent of the Manager or the Company, on the one hand, and the Manager or the Company, on the other hand.

Section 6.4                                    Reimbursement for Expenses. The Company shall be liable for, and shall reimburse the Manager on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the Manager may determine, for all sums expended in connection with the Company’s business, including (i) expenses relating to the ownership of interests in and management and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Company, (ii) compensation of officers and employees of the Manager, if any, including payments under future compensation plans of the Manager and the Company that may provide for stock units, or phantom stock, pursuant to which employees of the Manager or the Company will receive payments based upon dividends on or the value of Class A Shares, (iii) costs of indemnifying directors, officers, employees or agents of the Manager (including advancement of expenses), in their respective capacities as such, whether pursuant to the Manager’s governing documents or otherwise, (iv) director fees and expenses, (v) all costs and expenses of the Manager being a public company, including costs of filings with the SEC, reports and other distributions to its stockholders and (vi) all organizational and operational expenses reasonably incurred by the Manager, including all payments, advances and other expenses in connection with any indemnity or similar obligation of the Manager. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement of the Manager as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.3. To the extent practicable, expenses incurred by the Manager on behalf of or for the benefit of the Company shall be billed directly to and paid by the Company and, if and to the extent any reimbursements to the Manager or any of its Affiliates by the Company pursuant to this Section 6.4 constitute gross income to such Person (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by such Person on behalf of the Company), such amounts shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Members’ Capital Accounts. If at any time the Manager is different from SDC Inc., SDC Inc. shall be entitled, so long as there are Common Units outstanding that may be Redeemed pursuant to Article XI, to be reimbursed by the Company in the same manner

30

as the Manager pursuant to this Section 6.4. For the avoidance of doubt, distributions made under this Section 6.4 may not be used to pay dividends or distributions on equity securities of SDC Inc.

Section 6.5                                    Limitation of Liability.

(a)                                 Neither the Manger nor any manager, member, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the Manager or the Company shall be liable to the Company or any Member for money damages by reason of their service as such. Subject to its obligations and duties as the Manager set forth in the Agreement and applicable Law, the Manager may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its employees or agents, and shall not be responsible to the Company or any Member for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such employee or agent. The Manger and the managers, members, directors, officers, employees, agent and representatives of the Manager and the Company shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts, including financial advisors, and any act of or failure to act by the Manger or any manager, member, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the Manager or the Company, as the case may be, in good faith reliance on such advice shall in no event subject the Manager any manager, member, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the Manager or the Company, as the case may be, to liability to the Company or any Member.

(b)                                 Whenever in this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein, the Manager is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “sole discretion” or “discretion,” with “complete discretion” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Manager shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or other Members.

(c)                                  Whenever in this Agreement the Manager is permitted or required to take any action or to make a decision in its “good faith” or under another express standard, (i) the Manager shall act under such express standard and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, shall not be subject to any other or different standards, (ii) any resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Manager shall be presumed to have been made, taken or provided in accordance with the standard set forth in this Section 6.5(c) and (iii) notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as the Manager acts in good faith, the resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Manager shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or impose liability upon the Manager or any of the Manager’s Affiliates.

Section 6.6                                    Outside Activities of the Manager. The Manager shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any business or operations, other than in connection with (a) the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Units, (b) the management of the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (c) the operation of the Manager as a reporting company with a class (or classes) of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and listed on a national securities exchange (as defined in the Exchange Act), (d) the offering, sale,

31

syndication, private placement or public offering of stock, bonds, securities or other interests, (e) financing or refinancing of any type related to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their assets or activities, and (f) such activities as are incidental to the foregoing; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided herein, the net proceeds of any financing raised by the Manager pursuant to the preceding clauses (d) and (e) shall be made available to the Company, whether as Capital Contributions, loans or otherwise, as appropriate, and, provided, further, that the Manager may, in its sole and absolute discretion, from time to time hold or acquire assets in its own name or otherwise other than through the Company and its Subsidiaries so long as the Manager takes commercially reasonable measures to ensure that the economic benefits and burdens of such assets are otherwise vested in the Company or its Subsidiaries, through assignment, loan or otherwise or, if it is not commercially reasonable to vest such economic interests in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to reflect such activities and the direct ownership of assets by the Manager. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit the Manager from executing any guarantee of indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE VII

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF MEMBERS

Section 7.1                                    Limitation of Liability and Duties of Members and Officers.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Delaware Act, no current or former Member (including a current or former Manager) or any current or former Officer shall be obligated personally for any debt, obligation or liability solely by reason of being a Member or, with respect to the Manager, acting as the Manager of the Company, or, with respect to an Officer, acting in his or her capacity as an Officer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business and affairs under this Agreement or the Delaware Act shall not be grounds for imposing personal liability on the Manager for liabilities of the Company.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (subject to Section 6.5 with respect to the Manager), to the extent that, at Law or in equity, any Member (including the Manager), any Affiliate of a Member or any manager, managing member, general partner, director (or equivalent), officer, employee, agent, fiduciary or trustee of any Member or of any Affiliate of a Member) has duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, to another Member, to any Person who acquires an interest in one or more Units or to any other Person bound by this Agreement, all such duties (including fiduciary duties) are hereby limited solely to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Law. The limitation of duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company, each of the Members, each other Person who acquires an interest in one or more Units and each other Person bound by this Agreement as expressly set forth herein, if any, are approved by the Company, each of the Members, each other Person who acquires an interest in one or more Units and each other Person bound by this Agreement.

32

Section 7.2                                    No Right of Partition. No Non-Manager Member shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court decree or operation of Law of any Company property, or the right to own or use particular or individual assets of the Company.

Section 7.3                                    Indemnification.

(a)                                 The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Person (each an “Indemnified Person”) to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware Act, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, substituted or replaced (but, in the case of any such amendment, substitution or replacement only to the extent that such amendment, substitution or replacement permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Company is providing immediately prior to such amendment), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether or not by or in the right of the Company, in which any Indemnified Person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, in connection with any act or omission performed, or omitted to be performed, by such Indemnified Person by reason of the fact that such Person is or was a Member (including the Manager), is or was serving as a Partnership Representative or an officer or director (or equivalent) of the Manager or the Company, or is or was an officer or director (or equivalent) of the Manager or the Company serving at the request of the Manager or Company as an officer or director (or equivalent) of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other entity or which or which relates to or arises out of the Company or its property, business or affairs; provided, however, that no Person shall be indemnified and held harmless under this Section 7.3(a) in respect of a matter if (i) there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court or arbitration panel of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter, the Indemnified Person engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or (ii) such matter was initiated by such Indemnified Person unless such matter was (1) initiated to enforce such Indemnified Person’s rights to indemnification under this Agreement or (2) authorized or consented to by the Manager. Expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by any such Indemnified Person in defending a proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

(b)                                 The right to indemnification and the advancement of expenses conferred in this Section 7.3 shall be in addition to any other right which any Person may have or hereafter acquire under any insurance, statute, agreement, bylaw, action by the Manager or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnified Person who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnified Person.

(c)                                  The Company may, but shall not be required to, maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, or substantially equivalent insurance, at its expense, to protect any Person against any expense, liability or loss, including any expense, liability or loss described in

33

Section 7.3(a) and whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Indemnified Person against such expense, liability or loss under the provisions of this Section 7.3.

(d)                                 Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be made only out of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, it being agreed that the Members shall not be directly liable for such indemnification and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Company to enable it to effectuate such indemnification.

(e)                                  An Indemnified Person shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.3 solely because the Indemnified Person had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies.

(f)                                   The Company shall have the power, with the approval of the Manager, to provide indemnification and advancement of expenses to any Person who is not an Indemnified Person.

(g)                                  The Company shall have the power, with the approval of the Manager, to enter into an agreement providing for the obligation of the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to any Person.

(h)                                 If this Section 7.3 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court or arbitration panel of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold each Indemnified Person harmless pursuant to this Section 7.3 to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 7.3 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

(i)                                     The provisions of this Section 7.3 shall be applicable to all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings made or commenced after the adoption thereof whether arising from acts or omissions to act occurring before or after its adoption.

(j)                                    No amendment or other modification of any subsection of this Section 7.3, nor the inclusion of any provision inconsistent with this Section 7.3 shall adversely affect any right or protection of any Indemnified Person established pursuant to this Section 7.3 existing at the time of such amendment or other modification or inclusion of an inconsistent provision, including without limitation by eliminating or reducing the effect of this Section 7.3, for or in respect of any act, omission or other matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Section 7.3, would accrue or arise), prior to such amendment or other modification or inclusion of an inconsistent provision.

Section 7.4                                    Members’ Right to Act. For matters that require the approval of the Members, the Members shall act through meetings and written consents as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) below:

(a)                                 Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement, acts by Consent of the Members, voting together as a single class, shall be the acts of the Members. Any Member entitled to vote at a meeting of Members or to express consent or dissent to Company action in a written transmission without a meeting may authorize another Person or Persons to

34

act for it by proxy in accordance with the Delaware Act. Should a proxy designate two or more Persons to act as proxies, unless that instrument shall provide to the contrary, a majority of such Persons shall have and may exercise all the powers of voting or giving consents thereby conferred, or, if a majority do not agree on any particular issue, the Company shall not be required to recognize such proxy with respect to such issue if such proxy does not specify how the votes that are the subject of such proxy are to be voted with respect to such issue.

(b)                                 The actions by the Members permitted hereunder may be taken at a meeting called by the Manager or by a Majority in Interest of the Members on at least forty-eight (48) hours’ prior written notice to the other Members entitled to vote, which notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which such meeting is being called. The actions taken by the Members entitled to vote or consent at any meeting (as opposed to by written consent), however called and noticed, shall be as valid as though taken at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if (but not until), either before, at or after the meeting, the Members entitled to vote or consent as to whom it was improperly held execute a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. The actions by the Members entitled to vote or consent may be taken by vote of the Members entitled to vote or consent at a meeting or by written consent, so long as such consent is signed by Members having not less than the minimum Percentage Interest that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Members entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of the action so taken, which shall state the purpose or purposes for which such consent is required and may be delivered via email, without a meeting shall be given to those Members entitled to vote or consent who have not consented in writing; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not affect the validity of the action taken by such written consent. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent of the Members shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the Members at a meeting thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Non-Manager Member shall have any right to approve any matter or action taken by the Company except those matters for which approval or consent of the Members (or such Member) is expressly provided for in this Agreement.

Section 7.5                                    Inspection Rights. The Company shall permit each Member and each of its designated representatives to (a) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, all at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, (b) examine the business and financial records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom, and (c) consult with the Manager, and the managers, officers, employees and independent accountants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries concerning the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 7.6                                    Restrictive Covenants.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise provided herein or as otherwise consented to in writing by the Company, each Non-Manager Member and each owner of any such Non-Manager Member agrees that, so long as such Non-Manager Member remains a Member of the Company and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the date on which such Non-Manager Member ceases to be a Member, such Non-Manager Member and such Non-Manager Member’s

35

Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any portfolio company controlled by any such Non-Manager Member or its Affiliates) shall not, directly or indirectly:

(i)                                     Solicit or attempt to entice away the employment of any Company Employee or other service provider of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or any licensed professional or professional entity for which the Company or any of its Affiliates provide services (each, an “Associated PC”), other than help wanted advertisements or recruitment efforts by any recruitment agency that are not specifically targeted at employees or contract workers of the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC, nor hire any such employee or individual who was an employee or contract worker of the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC at any time during the prior twelve (12) months, other than any individual who responds to such general solicitation or who has been terminated by the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC;

(ii)                                  Solicit any Person who is a customer, client or patient of the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC to cease doing business with the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC, or with respect to the provision services by a Competing Business;

(iii)                               Unless such interference is required by applicable Law, interfere with any business relationship between the Company, any of its Affiliates or any Associated PC, on the one hand, and any of their respective customers, clients, patients, vendors, suppliers or other Persons having a business relationship therewith, on the other hand.

(iv)                              Make, publish or communicate to any Person or in any public forum any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments or statements concerning the Company, any of its Affiliates, any Associated PC or any of their businesses; provided, that this Section 7.6(a)(iv) does not, in any way, restrict or impede any Member from exercising protected rights to the extent that such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from responding truthfully and in good faith upon demand pursuant to any investigation or inquiry by a governmental authority or as required by applicable Law, subpoena, court order or other compulsory legal process, or in enforcing or defending such Member’s rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event does the Company, any of its Affiliates, any Associated PC or any of their respective businesses waive any claims or causes of action it may have under applicable Law in connection with the making of such disparaging or defamatory statements by any Member;

(v)                                 Engage in (whether as an owner, proprietor, general or limited partner, member, principal, officer, employee, consultant, director, investor, agent or otherwise), or be employed or contracted by, any Competing Business in any state in which the Company does or intends to conduct business (whether or not compensated for such services); provided, that the restriction in this Section 7.6(a)(v) shall not apply to any Member’s passive ownership of (1) any interests in any exchange traded fund or mutual fund or (2) less than five percent (5%) of the securities in any publicly traded company or lending money to any such publicly traded company; nor

36

(vi)                              Except on behalf of the Company, use or operate any enterprise under the name “SmileDirectClub,” “SDC Financial” or any variants thereof;

provided, that nothing in this Section 7.6 shall, except as hereinafter set forth, restrict any portfolio company that the Pre-IPO Members or their respective Affiliates does not control (each, a “Portfolio Company”) from engaging in any activity, including a Competing Business; provided, further, that the Pre-IPO Members shall not (x) provide any of their respective Portfolio Companies with any Confidential Information, (y) cause any of their respective Portfolio Companies to breach any of the provisions of this Section 7.6, or (z) in the event it has notice of and the power or authority to prevent a Portfolio Company from engaging in such action, fail to prevent a Portfolio Company from taking any of the actions set forth in this Section 7.6(a).

(b)                                 Each Non-Manager Member, subject to this Section 7.6, hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that the geographic boundaries, scope of prohibited activities, and time duration set forth in this Section 7.6, as applicable to such Person, are reasonable and are no broader than are necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company. Each Non-Manager Member acknowledges that its obligations under this Section 7.6 are reasonable in the context of the nature of the Company Business and the competitive injuries likely to be sustained by the Company if any Non-Manager Member were to violate such obligations. Each Non-Manager Member further acknowledges that this Agreement is made in consideration of, and is adequately supported by the agreement of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement and by other consideration, which each Non-Manager Member acknowledges constitutes good, valuable and sufficient consideration.

(c)                                  If any provision or clause of this Section 7.6 is found to be in conflict with a mandatory provision of applicable Law, each Non-Manager Member agrees the conflicting provision shall be modified to conform. Each Non-Manager Member covenants and agrees that should any provision of this Section 7.6, under any circumstances, foreseen or unforeseen, including term periods and geographic areas, be deemed too broad for the intended purposes, such provision shall, nevertheless, be valid and enforceable to the extent allowed by applicable Law and such provision shall be construed by limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable Law.

The Company shall keep, or cause to be kept, the books of account of the business in conformity with GAAP, together with all other appropriate books and records with respect to the Company’s business, including all books and records necessary to provide any information, lists and copies of documents required pursuant to applicable Law. All matters concerning (a) the determination of the relative amount of allocations and Distributions among the Members pursuant to Articles III and IV and (b) accounting procedures and determinations, and other determinations not specifically and expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement, shall be determined by the Manager,

37

whose determination shall be final and conclusive as to all of the Members absent manifest clerical error.

Section 8.2                                    Fiscal Year. The Fiscal Year of the Company shall end on December 31 of each year or such other date as may be established by the Manager.

ARTICLE IX

TAX MATTERS

Section 9.1                                    Preparation of Tax Returns. The Manager shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns with respect to the Company’s income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Company for federal and state income tax purposes and shall use all reasonable effort to furnish, within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the close of each Taxable Year, the tax information reasonably required by the Members and for federal and state income tax and any other tax reporting purposes. The Members shall promptly provide the Manager with such information relating to any assets contributed to the Company (excluding cash), including tax basis and other relevant information, as may be reasonably requested by the Manager from time to time.

Section 9.2                                    Taxable Year. The Taxable Year of the Company shall be the Fiscal Year set forth in Section 8.2, unless otherwise required by Section 706 of the Code.

Section 9.3                                    Tax Elections. The Manager shall file (or cause to be filed) an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code for the Company for its first Fiscal Year and shall maintain and keep such election in effect at all times. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Manager shall determine whether to make any available election pursuant to the Code (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the election under Section 754 of the Code). The Manager shall have the right to seek to revoke any such election (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any election under Section 754 of the Code).

Section 9.4                                    Partnership Representative.

(a)                                 The Manager is hereby designated to serve as the “tax matters partner” under Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (as in effect prior to repeal of such section pursuant to the Bipartisan Budget Act, Pub.L. 144-74 (2015)) and the “partnership representative” with respect to the Company, as provided in Section 6223(a) of the Partnership Audit Procedures (in such capacities, the “Partnership Representative”) to oversee or handle matters relating to the taxation of the Company. For each Taxable Year in which the Partnership Representative is an entity, the Company shall appoint the “designated individual” identified by the Partnership Representative to act on behalf of the Partnership Representative (the “Designated Individual”) in accordance with the applicable Treasury Regulations. Each Member expressly consents to such designations and agrees that it will execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such consent.

(b)                                 The Partnership Representative shall have the sole authority to act on behalf of the Company in connection with and make all relevant decisions regarding application

38

of the Partnership Audit Procedures, including, but not limited to, any elections under the Partnership Audit Procedures or any decisions to settle, compromise, challenge, litigate or otherwise alter the defense of any proceeding before the Internal Revenue Service.

(c)                                  The Members agree to cooperate in good faith to timely provide information requested by the Partnership Representative as needed to comply with the Partnership Audit Procedures, including without limitation to make any elections available to the Company under the Partnership Audit Procedures. Each Member agrees that, upon request of the Company, such Member shall take such actions as may be necessary or desirable (as determined by the Partnership Representative) to (i) allow the Company to comply with the provisions of Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Procedures so that any “partnership adjustments” (as defined in Section 6241(2) of the Partnership Audit Procedures) are taken into account by the Members and former Members rather than the Company; (ii) use the provisions of Section 6225(c) of the Partnership Audit Procedures including, but not limited to, filing amended tax returns with respect to any “reviewed year” (within the meaning of Section 6225(d)(1) of the Partnership Audit Procedures) or using the alternative procedure to filing amended returns to reduce the amount of any partnership adjustment otherwise required to be taken into account by the Company; or (iii) otherwise allow the Company and its Members to address and respond to any matters arising under the Partnership Audit Procedures.

(d)                                 The Partnership Representative shall keep the Non-Manager Members informed, from time to time, as to the status of any audit of the Company. The Partnership Representative shall provide to the Non-Manager Members reasonable opportunity to provide information and other input to the Company and its advisors concerning the conduct of any such portion of any audit of the Company the outcome of which is reasonably expected to materially affect the Non-Manager Members’ rights and obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement (as such term is defined therein).

(e)                                  Notwithstanding other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if any partnership adjustment is determined with respect to the Company, the Partnership Representative may cause the Company to elect pursuant to Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Procedures to have such adjustment passed through to the Members for the year to which the adjustment relates (i.e., the “reviewed year” within the meaning of Section 6225(d)(1) of the Partnership Audit Procedures). In the event that the Partnership Representative has not caused the Company to so elect pursuant to Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Procedures, then any “imputed underpayment” (as determined in accordance with Section 6225 of the Partnership Audit Procedures) or partnership adjustment that does not give rise to an imputed underpayment shall be apportioned among the Members of the Company for the Taxable Year in which the adjustment is finalized in such manner as may be necessary (as determined by the Partnership Representative in good faith) so that, to the maximum extent possible, the tax and economic consequences of the imputed underpayment or other partnership adjustment and any associated interest and penalties (any such amount, an “Imputed Underpayment Amount”) are borne by the Members based upon their Percentage Interests in the Company for the reviewed year. Imputed Underpayment Amounts also shall include any imputed underpayment within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Partnership Audit Procedures paid (or payable) by any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which the Company holds (or has held) a direct or indirect interest other than through entities treated as corporations for U.S.

39

federal income tax purposes to the extent that the Company bears the economic burden of such amounts, whether by Law or contract.

(f)                                   Each Member agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any liability with respect to such Member’s share of any tax deficiency paid or payable by the Company that is allocable to the Member as determined in accordance with the second sentence of Section 9.4(e) with respect to an audited or reviewed taxable year for which such Member was a partner in the Company. Any obligation of a Member pursuant to this Section 9.4(f) shall be implemented through adjustments to distributions otherwise payable to such Member as determined in accordance with Section 4.1; provided, however, that, at the written request of the Partnership Representative, each Member or former Member may be required to contribute to the Company such Member’s Imputed Underpayment Amount imposed on and paid by the Company; provided, further, that if a Member or former Member individually directly pays, pursuant to the Partnership Audit Procedures, any such Imputed Underpayment Amount, then such payment shall reduce any offset to distribution or required capital contribution of such Member or former Member. Any amount withheld from distributions pursuant to this Section 9.4(f) shall be treated as an amount distributed to such Member or former Member for all purposes under this Agreement.

(g)                                  All expenses incurred by the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual in connection with its duties as partnership representative or designated individual, as applicable, shall be expenses of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs and expenses incurred in connection with any claims asserted against the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual, as applicable, except to the extent the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual is determined to have performed its duties in the manner described in the final sentence of this Section 9.4(g)), and the Company shall reimburse and indemnify the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual, as applicable, for all such expenses and costs. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual from engaging lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, or other professional advisers or experts to assist the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual in discharging its duties hereunder. Neither the Partnership Representative nor Designated Individual shall be liable to the Company, any Member or any Affiliate thereof for any costs or losses to any persons, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of the performance of its duties pursuant to this Section 9.4 absent (i) willful breach of any provision of this Section 9.4 or (ii) bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual, as applicable.

Section 9.5                                    Withholding. Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member any amount of U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the Manager determines that the Company is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement, including any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Company pursuant to Section 1441, Section 1442, Section 1445 or Section 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Member shall constitute a loan by the Company to such Member, with interest assessed at a rate equal to the Applicable Federal Short-Term Rate as published monthly by the Internal Revenue Service plus two percent (2%), compounded annually, which loan shall be repaid by such Member within fifteen (15) days after notice from the Manager that

40

such payment must be made unless (i) the Company withholds such payment from a distribution that would otherwise be made to the Member or (ii) the Manager determines that such payment may be satisfied out of the cash of the Company that would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Member. Each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a security interest in such Member’s Units to secure such Member’s obligation to pay to the Company any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.5. In the event that a Member fails to pay any amounts owed to the Company pursuant to this Section 9.5 when due, such amounts shall bear interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large U.S. money center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal, plus four (4) percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Member shall take such actions as the Company or the Manager shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder.

Section 9.6                                    Organizational Expenses. The Manager may cause the Company to elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Company ratably over a one hundred eighty (180)-month period as provided in Section 709 of the Code.

Section 9.7                                    Survival. The obligations set forth in this Article IX shall survive the termination of any Member’s interest in the Company, the termination of this Agreement and/or the termination, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, and shall remain binding on each Member for the period of time necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service (or any other applicable taxing authority) all income tax matters relating to the Company and for Members to satisfy their indemnification obligations, if any, pursuant to this Article IX.

ARTICLE X

TRANSFERS; WITHDRAWALS

Section 10.1                             Transfer.

(a)                                 No part of the interest of a Member shall be subject to the claims of any creditor, to any spouse for alimony or support, or to legal process, and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily alienated or encumbered except as may be specifically provided for in this Agreement.

(b)                                 No Unit shall be Transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article X. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of one or more Units not made in accordance with this Article X shall be null and void ab initio.

(c)                                  No Transfer of any Unit may be made to a lender to the Company or any Person who is related (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-4(b)) to any lender to the Company whose loan constitutes a nonrecourse liability (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-1(a)(2)), without the consent of the Manager; provided, that as a condition to such consent, the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Company and SDC Inc. to redeem or exchange for the Class A Shares Amount any Units in which a security interest is held by such lender immediately before the time at which such lender

41

would be deemed to be a member in the Company for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code.

Section 10.2                             Transfer of Manager’s Units.

(a)                                 Except as provided in Section 10.2(b), and subject to the rights of any Holder set forth in a Unit Designation, the Manager may not Transfer any of its Units without the Consent of the Members.

(b)                                 Subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article X, the Manager may Transfer all of its Units at any time to any Person that is, at the time of such Transfer, a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Manager without the consent of any Member, and may designate the transferee to become the new Manager under Article XII.

(c)                                  The Manager may not voluntarily withdraw as a Member of the Company, except in connection with a Transfer all of the Manager’s Units permitted in this Article X and the admission of the Transferee as a successor Manager of the Company pursuant to the Delaware Act and this Agreement.

(d)                                 It is a condition to any Transfer of all of the Manager’s Units otherwise permitted hereunder that (i) coincident or prior to such Transfer, the transferee is admitted as the Manager pursuant to the Delaware Act and this Agreement; (ii) the transferee assumes by operation of Law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Manager under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred Units; and (iii) the transferee has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Manager and the admission of such transferee as the Manager.

Section 10.3                             Non-Manager Members’ Rights to Transfer.

(a)                                 General. Except as provided below, no Holder may Transfer any Unit without the consent of the Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Holder may, at any time, without the consent of the Manager, Transfer all or any portion of its Units pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (including, in the case of a Holder that is a Permitted Lender Transferee, any Transfer of Units to a Third-Party Pledge Transferee). Any Transfer by a Holder is subject to Section 10.4 and to satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i)                                     Qualified Transferee. Any Transfer of any Units shall be made only to a single Qualified Transferee; provided, however, that for such purposes, all Qualified Transferees that are Affiliates, or that comprise investment accounts or funds managed by a single Qualified Transferee and its Affiliates, shall be considered together to be a single Qualified Transferee; provided, further, that each Transfer meeting the minimum Transfer restriction set forth in Section 10.3(a)(iii) may be to a separate Qualified Transferee.

(ii)                                  Opinion of Counsel. The transferor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Manager an opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Manager to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration

42

under the Securities Act and will not otherwise violate the registration provisions of the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder or violate any state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Company or the Units Transferred; provided, however, that the Manager may waive this condition upon the request of the transferor. If the Manager determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such Transfer would create a material risk of requiring the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or otherwise violating any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Company or the Units, the Manager may prohibit any Transfer otherwise permitted under this Section 10.3.

(iii)                               Minimum Transfer Restriction. Any transferor must Transfer not less than the lesser of (i) ten thousand (10,000) Units (as adjusted for any unit split, unit distribution, reverse unit split, reclassification or similar event, in each case with such adjustment being determined by the Manager) or (ii) all of the remaining Units owned by such transferor; provided, however, that for purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing restriction, all Units owned by Affiliates of a Holder shall be considered to be owned by such Holder.

(iv)                              No Further Transfers. The transferee shall not be permitted to effect any further Transfer of the Units, other than to SDC Inc. or the Company.

(v)                                 Exception for Permitted Transfers. The conditions of Section 10.3(a)(ii) and 10.3(a)(iv) shall not apply in the case of a Permitted Transfer.

It is a condition to any Transfer otherwise permitted hereunder (whether or not such Transfer is effected during or after any applicable Lock-Up Period) that the transferee assumes by operation of Law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Member under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred Units, and no such Transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of Law) shall relieve the transferor of its obligations under this Agreement without the approval of the Manager. Any transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Member, shall take subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder. Unless admitted as a Substituted Member, no transferee, whether by a voluntary Transfer, by operation of Law or otherwise, shall have any rights hereunder, other than the rights of an Assignee as provided in Section 10.5.

(b)                                 Incapacity. If a Member is Incapacitated, the executor, administrator, trustee, committee, guardian, conservator or receiver of such Member’s estate shall have all the rights of a Member, but not more rights than those enjoyed by other Members, for the purpose of settling or managing the estate, and such power as the Incapacitated Member possessed to Transfer all or any part of its interest in the Company. The Incapacity of a Member, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Company.

Section 10.4                             Substituted Members.

(a)                                 No Member shall have the right to substitute a transferee other than a Permitted Transferee as a Member in its place. A transferee of the interest of a Member may be

43

admitted as a Substituted Member only with the consent of the Manager; provided, however, that a Permitted Transferee shall be admitted as a Substituted Member pursuant to a Permitted Transfer without the consent of the Manager, subject to compliance with the last sentence of this Section 10.4. The failure or refusal by the Manager to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Member shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Company or the Manager. Subject to the foregoing, an Assignee shall not be admitted as a Substituted Member until and unless it furnishes to the Manager (i) an executed Joinder to this Agreement, (ii) Consent by Spouse (if applicable), and (iii) such other documents and instruments as the Manager may require to effect such Assignee’s admission as a Substituted Member.

(b)                                 Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of a Substituted Member, the Manager shall amend the Register and the books and records of the Company to reflect the name, address and number of Units of such Substituted Member and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and number of Units of the predecessor of such Substituted Member.

(c)                                  A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Member in accordance with this Article X shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Member under this Agreement.

Section 10.5                             Assignees. If the Manager’s consent is required for the admission of any transferee under Section 10.3 as a Substituted Member, as described in Section 10.4, and the Manager withholds such consent, such transferee shall be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement. An Assignee shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited liability company interest under the Delaware Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Company and the share of Net Profits, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company attributable to the Units assigned to such transferee and the rights to Transfer the Units provided in this Article X, but shall not be deemed to be a Holder for any other purpose under this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in Section 11.1 with respect to a Qualifying Party that becomes a Tendering Party), and shall not be entitled to effect a consent or vote with respect to such Units on any matter presented to the Members for approval (such right to consent or vote, to the extent provided in this Agreement or under the Delaware Act, fully remaining with the transferor Member). In the event that any such transferee desires to make a further assignment of any such Units, such transferee shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article X to the same extent and in the same manner as any Member desiring to make an assignment of Units.

Section 10.6                             General Provisions.

(a)                                 No Member may withdraw from the Company other than: (i) as a result of a Permitted Transfer of all of such Member’s Units in accordance with this Article X with respect to which the transferee becomes a Substituted Member; (ii) pursuant to a redemption (or acquisition by SDC Inc.) of all of its Units pursuant to a Redemption under Article X or Section 11.1 and/or pursuant to any Unit Designation; or (iii) as a result of the acquisition by the Company or SDC Inc. of all of such Member’s Units, whether or not pursuant to Section 11.1(b).

44

(b)                                 Any Member who shall Transfer all of its Units in a Transfer (i) permitted pursuant to this Article X where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Member, (ii) pursuant to the exercise of its rights to effect a redemption of all of its Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 11.1 and/or pursuant to any Unit Designation, or (iii) to SDC Inc., whether or not pursuant to Section 11.1(b), shall cease to be a Member.

(c)                                  If any Unit is Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Article X, or is redeemed by the Company, or acquired by SDC Inc. pursuant to Section 11.1, on any day other than the first day of a Fiscal Year, then Net Profits, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to such Unit for such Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the transferor Member or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of a Transfer or assignment other than a Redemption, to the transferee Member, by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code, using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method or methods selected by the Manager. Should the “interim closing of the books” method be used, then solely for purposes of making such allocations, unless otherwise determined by the Manager, each of such items for the calendar month in which a Transfer occurs shall be allocated to the transferee Member and none of such items for the calendar month in which a Transfer or a Redemption occurs shall be allocated to the transferor Member, or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) if such Transfer occurs on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of the month, otherwise such items shall be allocated to the transferor. All distributions attributable to such Unit with respect to which the Company Record Date is before the date of such Transfer, assignment or Redemption shall be made to the transferor Member or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of a Transfer other than a Redemption, all distributions thereafter attributable to such Unit shall be made to the transferee.

(d)                                 In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, in no event may any Transfer or assignment of Units by any Member (including any Redemption, any acquisition of Units by the Manager or any other acquisition of Units by the Company) be made (i) to any person or entity who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own Units; (ii) in violation of applicable Law; (iii) of any component portion of a Unit, such as the Capital Account, or rights to distributions, separate and apart from all other components of a Unit; (iv) if the Manager determines that such Transfer would create a material risk that the Company would become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a “party-in-interest” (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Section 4975(c) of the Code); (v) if the Manager determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such Transfer would create a material risk that any portion of the assets of the Company would constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Treasury Regulations Section 2510.2-101; (vi) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Unit pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities Laws; (vii) if the Manager determines that such Transfer creates a material risk that the Company would become a reporting company under the Exchange Act; (viii) if such Transfer subjects the Company to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or ERISA, each as amended; or (ix) if the Manager determines that such Transfer would create a material risk that the Company would become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code, or otherwise cease to be classified as a partnership for

45

U.S. federal income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by SDC Inc.) of all Units held by all Members (other than SDC Inc.).

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event may any Transfer or assignment of any Units by any Member (including any Redemption, any acquisition of Units by SDC Inc. or any other acquisition of Units by the Company) result in the Company’s having more than one hundred (100) Members within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(1) (determined pursuant to the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)).

(f)                                   Transfers pursuant to this Article X, other than a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to the exercise of remedies under a Pledge, may only be made on the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Company, unless the Manager otherwise agrees.

Section 10.7                             Restrictions on Termination Transactions. SDC Inc. shall not engage in, or cause or permit, a Termination Transaction, other than (i) with Consent of the Members, or (ii) either:

(a)                                 in connection with any such Termination Transaction, each Holder of Common Units (other than SDC Inc. and its wholly owned Subsidiaries) will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, for each Common Unit an amount of cash, securities or other property equal to the product of the Adjustment Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one Class A Share in consideration of one Class A Share pursuant to the terms of such Termination Transaction; provided, that if in connection with such Termination Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class A Shares, each Holder of Common Units (other than SDC Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries) will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property which such Holder of Common Units would have received had it exercised its right to Redemption pursuant to Article XI and received Class A Shares in exchange for its Common Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer and had thereupon accepted such purchase, tender or exchange offer and then such Termination Transaction shall have been consummated (the fair market value, as determined by the Manager (whose determination shall be conclusive) at the time of the Termination Transaction, of the amount specified herein with respect to each Common Unit is referred to as the “Transaction Consideration”); or

(b)                                 all of the following conditions are met: (i) substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by the Company prior to the announcement of the Termination Transaction are, immediately after the Termination Transaction, owned directly or indirectly by the Company or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the survivor of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets with the Company (in each case, the “Surviving Company”); (ii) the Surviving Company is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (iii) the Members (other than SDC Inc.) that held Common Units immediately prior to the consummation of such Termination Transaction own a percentage interest of the Surviving Company based on the relative fair market value (as determined by the Manager, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the net assets of the Company and the

46

other net assets of the Surviving Company immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction; (iv) the rights of such Members with respect to the Surviving Company are at least as favorable as those of Members holding Common Units immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction (except to the extent that any such rights are consistent with clause (v) below) and as those applicable to any other limited partners or non-managing members of the Surviving Company; and (v) such rights include the right to redeem their interests in the Surviving Company at any time for cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such interest at the time of redemption, as determined at least once every calendar quarter by an independent appraisal firm of recognized national standing retained by the Surviving Company.

ARTICLE XI

REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS

Section 11.1                             Redemption Rights of Qualifying Parties.

(a)                                 After the expiration or earlier termination of any applicable Lock-Up Period, a Qualifying Party shall have the right (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) to redeem all or a portion of the Common Units held by such Qualifying Party (Common Units that have in fact been tendered for redemption being hereafter referred to as “Tendered Units”) in exchange for the Cash Amount payable on the Specified Redemption Date (in each case, a “Redemption”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in the Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, redeem Tendered Units at the request of the Tendering Party prior to the end of any applicable Lock-Up Period (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) (a “Special Redemption”); provided, that the Manager first receives a legal opinion to the same effect as the legal opinion described in Section 11.1(e). Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the Manager by the Qualifying Party when exercising the Redemption right (the “Tendering Party”). To be effective, such Notice of Redemption must be received by the Company not less than three (3) and not more than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Specified Redemption Date. The Company’s obligation to effect a Redemption, however, shall not arise or be binding against the Company (i) unless and until SDC Inc. declines to exercise its purchase rights pursuant to Section 11.1(b) hereof following receipt of a Notice of Redemption (a “Declination”) and (ii) until the Business Day following the Cut-Off Date. In the event of a Redemption, the applicable Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified or bank check payable to the Tendering Party or, in the Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, by wire transfer of funds on or before the Specified Redemption Date.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.1(a) hereof, on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, SDC Inc. may, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Board of Directors, elect to acquire some or all (such percentage being referred to as the “Acquired Percentage”) of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Party in exchange for the Class A Shares Amount or the Cash Amount (as determined by SDC Inc. in its sole discretion), calculated based on the portion of Tendered Units it elects to acquire. If SDC Inc. so elects, on the Specified Redemption Date, the Tendering Party shall sell such number of the Tendered Units to SDC Inc. in exchange for (i) a number of Class A Shares equal to the product of the Class A Shares Amount and the Acquired Percentage, (ii) cash in an amount equal to the product

47

of the Cash Amount and the Acquired Percentage, or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii), with the form and allocation of consideration determined by SDC Inc. in its sole discretion. The Tendering Party shall submit such written representations, investment letters, legal opinions or other instruments necessary, in the view of SDC Inc., to effect compliance with the Securities Act. In the event of a purchase of the Tendered Units by SDC Inc. pursuant to this Section 11.1(b), the Tendering Party shall no longer have the right to cause the Company to effect a Redemption of such Tendered Units, and, upon notice to the Tendering Party by SDC Inc., given on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, that SDC Inc. has elected to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units pursuant to this Section 11.1(b), the obligation of the Company to effect a Redemption of the Tendered Units as to which SDC Inc.’s notice relates shall not accrue or arise. If SDC Inc. elects to acquire Tendered Units for Class A Shares, then a number of Class A Shares equal to the product of the Applicable Percentage and the Class A Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered by SDC Inc. as duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Class A Shares and, if applicable, Rights, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than restrictions provided in the certificate of incorporation of SDC Inc., the Securities Act and relevant state securities or “blue sky” Laws. Neither any Tendering Party whose Tendered Units are acquired by SDC Inc. pursuant to this Section 11.1(b), any Member, any Assignee nor any other interested Person shall have any right to require or cause SDC Inc. to register, qualify or list any Class A Shares owned or held by such Person, whether or not such Class A Shares are issued pursuant to this Section 11.1(b), with the SEC, with any state securities commissioner, department or agency, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or with any stock exchange; provided, however, that this limitation shall not be in derogation of any registration or similar rights granted pursuant to any other written agreement between SDC Inc. and any such Person. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery, the Tendering Party shall be deemed the owner of such Class A Shares and Rights for all purposes, including rights to vote or consent, receive dividends, and exercise rights, as of the Specified Redemption Date. Class A Shares issued upon an acquisition of Tendered Units by SDC Inc. pursuant to this Section 11.1(b) may contain such legends regarding restrictions under the Securities Act and applicable state securities Laws as SDC Inc. in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable in order to ensure compliance with such Laws. If SDC Inc. elects to acquire Tendered Units for cash, then cash equal to the product of the Acquired Percentage and the Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified or bank check payable to the Tendering Party or, in SDC Inc.’s sole and absolute discretion, by wire transfer of funds on or before the Specified Redemption Date.

(c)                                  In the event of a Declination, SDC Inc. shall give notice of such Declination to the Tendering Party on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date. The failure of SDC Inc. to give notice of such Declination by the close of business on the Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be an election by SDC Inc. to acquire the Tendered Units in exchange for Class A Shares or cash. In the event of a Declination, the Company may elect to raise funds for the payment of any applicable Cash Amount (a) solely by requiring that SDC Inc. or its Subsidiaries contribute to the Company funds from (i) the proceeds of a registered public offering by SDC Inc. of Class A Shares sufficient to purchase the Tendered Units or (ii) any other sources available to SDC Inc. or its Subsidiaries or (b) with the consent of the Tendering Party, from any other sources available to the Company. To the extent determined by the Manager, the Company will treat such a transaction as a disguised sale under Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code. If the Cash Amount is not paid on or before the Specified

48

Redemption Date, interest shall accrue with respect to the Cash Amount from the day after the Specified Redemption Date to and including the date on which the Cash Amount is paid at a rate equal to the Applicable Federal Short-Term Rate as published monthly by the Internal Revenue Service.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Redemption (or any tender of Common Units for Redemption if the Tendered Units are acquired by SDC Inc. pursuant to Section 11.1(b) hereof) pursuant to this Section 11.1:

(i)                                     Without the consent of the Manager, no Tendering Party may effect a Redemption for less than five thousand (5,000) Common Units (as adjusted for any unit split, unit distribution, reverse unit split, reclassification or similar event, in each case with such adjustment being determined by the Manager.) or, if such Tendering Party holds less than five thousand (5,000) Common Units (as adjusted for any unit split, unit distribution, reverse unit split, reclassification or similar event, in each case with such adjustment being determined by the Manager), all of the Common Units held by such Tendering Party.

(ii)                                  If (i) a Tendering Party surrenders Tendered Units during the period after the Company Record Date with respect to a distribution payable to Holders of Common Units, and before the record date established by SDC Inc. for a dividend to its stockholders of some or all of its portion of such Company distribution, and (ii) SDC Inc. elects to acquire any of such Tendered Units in exchange for Class A Shares pursuant to Section 11.1(b), then such Tendering Party shall pay to SDC Inc. on the Specified Redemption Date an amount in cash equal to the Company distribution paid or payable in respect of such Tendered Units.

(iii)                               The consummation of such Redemption (or an acquisition of Tendered Units by SDC Inc. pursuant to Section 11.1(b) hereof, as the case may be) shall be subject to the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, if any, under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

(iv)                              The Tendering Party shall continue to own (subject, in the case of an Assignee, to the provisions of Section 10.5) all Common Units subject to any Redemption, and be treated as a Member or an Assignee, as applicable, with respect to such Common Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until the Specified Redemption Date and until such Tendered Units are either paid for by the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(a) hereof or transferred to SDC Inc. and paid for by the issuance of Class A Shares or payment of cash pursuant to Section 11.1(b). Until a Specified Redemption Date and an acquisition of the Tendered Units by SDC Inc. for Class A Shares pursuant to Section 11.1(b) hereof, the Tendering Party shall have no rights as a stockholder of SDC Inc. with respect to the Class A Shares issuable in connection with such acquisition.

(v)                                 The Manager shall establish a Specified Redemption Date in each quarter of each Fiscal Year, subject to the expiration or earlier termination of any applicable Lock-Up Period, provided, that the Manager may postpone any such date one or more times. The Manager shall provide notice to the Members of each Specified

49

Redemption Date at least forty-five (45) days prior to such date. The Manager may, in its sole discretion, establish additional Specified Redemption Dates on such terms and conditions as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion, if it determines that doing so would not create a material risk that the Company would become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code.

(e)           In connection with any Special Redemption, SDC Inc. shall have the right to receive an opinion of counsel for the Tendering Party reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Special Redemption will not cause the Company or SDC Inc. to violate any federal or state securities Laws or regulations applicable to the Special Redemption or the issuance and sale of Class A Shares to the Tendering Party pursuant to Section 11.1(b) of this Agreement.

(f)            Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Member may exchange Common Units only to the extent such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Balance at the time of the exchange represents at least the same percentage of the aggregate Adjusted Capital Account Balances of all partners of the Company as the percentage interest represented by such Common Units to be exchanged. For the avoidance of doubt, the exchanging Member may designate the portion of his or her Capital Account attributable to one or more Common Units being exchanged.

(g)           Share Offering Funding Option.

(i)            Notwithstanding Section 11.1(a) or Section 11.1(b) hereof, if (i) a Member has delivered to the Manager a Notice of Redemption with respect to a number of Common Units that, together with any other Tendered Units from other Members (collectively, the “Offering Units”), exceeds twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000) gross value, based on a Common Unit price equal to the Value of a Class A Share, and (ii) SDC Inc. is eligible to file a registration statement under Form S-3 (or any successor form similar thereto), then either: (x) the Manager and SDC Inc. may cause the Company to redeem the Offering Units with the proceeds of an offering, whether registered under the Securities Act or exempt from such registration, underwritten, offered and sold directly to investors or through agents or other intermediaries, or otherwise distributed (a “Share Offering Funding”) of a number of Class A Shares (“Offered Shares”) equal to the Class A Shares Amount with respect to the Offering Units pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.1(g); (y) the Company shall pay the Cash Amount with respect to the Offering Units pursuant to the terms of Section 11.1(a); or (z) SDC Inc. shall acquire the Offering Units in exchange for the Class A Shares Amount pursuant to the terms of Section 11.1(b). The Manager and SDC Inc. must provide notice of its exercise of the election described in clause (x) above to purchase the Tendered Units through a Share Offering Funding on or before the Cut-Off Date.

(1)           If the Manager and SDC Inc. elect a Share Offering Funding with respect to a Notice of Redemption, SDC Inc. may give notice (a “Single Funding Notice”) of such election to all Members and require that all Members elect whether or not to effect a Redemption to be funded through such Share Offering Funding. If a Member elects to effect such a Redemption, it shall give notice thereof and of the

50

number of Common Units to be made subject thereto in writing to SDC Inc. within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Single Funding Notice, and such Member shall be treated as a Tendering Party for all purposes of this Section 11.1(g) as long as the requirements in Section 11.1(d)(iv) are otherwise satisfied.

(ii)           If the Manager and SDC Inc. elect a Share Offering Funding, on the Specified Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem each Offering Unit that is still a Tendered Unit on such date for cash in immediately available funds in an amount (the “Share Offering Funding Amount”) equal to the net proceeds per Offered Share received by SDC Inc. from the Share Offering Funding, determined after deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions but no other expenses of SDC Inc. or any other Member related thereto, including without limitation, legal and accounting fees and expenses, SEC registration fees, state blue sky and securities Laws fees and expenses, printing expenses, FINRA filing fees, exchange listing fees and other out of pocket expenses (the “Net Proceeds”).

(iii)          If the Manager and SDC Inc. elect a Share Offering Funding, the following additional terms and conditions shall apply:

(1)           As soon as practicable after the Manager and SDC Inc. elect to effect a Share Offering Funding, SDC Inc. shall use its reasonable efforts to effect as promptly as possible a registration, qualification or compliance (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities Laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of the Offered Shares; provided, that if SDC Inc. shall deliver a certificate to the Tendering Party stating that SDC Inc. has determined in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors that such filing, registration or qualification would require disclosure of material non-public information, the disclosure of which would have a material adverse effect on SDC Inc., then SDC Inc. may delay making any filing or delay the effectiveness of any registration or qualification for the shorter of (a) the period ending on the date upon which such information is disclosed to the public or ceases to be material or (b) an aggregate period of ninety (90) days in connection with any Share Offering Funding.

(2)           SDC Inc. shall advise each Tendering Party, regularly and promptly upon any request, of the status of the Share Offering Funding process, including the timing of all filings, the selection of and understandings with underwriters, agents, dealers and brokers, the nature and contents of all communications with the SEC and other governmental bodies, the expenses related to the Share Offering Funding as they are being incurred, the nature of marketing activities, and any other matters reasonably related to the timing, price and expenses relating to the Share Offering Funding and the compliance by SDC Inc. with its obligations with respect thereto. SDC Inc. will have reasonable procedures whereby the Tendering Party with the largest number of Offering Units (the “Lead Tendering Party”) may represent all the Tendering Parties in connection with the Share Offering Funding by allowing it to participate in meetings with

51

the underwriters of the Share Offering Funding. In addition, SDC Inc. and each Tendering Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, enter into understandings in writing (“Pricing Agreements”) whereby the Tendering Party will agree in advance as to the acceptability of a Net Proceeds amount at or below a specified amount. Furthermore, SDC Inc. shall establish pricing notification procedures with each such Tendering Party, such that the Tendering Member will have the maximum opportunity practicable to determine whether to become a Withdrawing Member pursuant to Section 11.1(g)(iii)(3) below.

(3)           SDC Inc. will permit the Lead Tendering Party to participate in the pricing discussions for the Share Offering Funding and, upon notification of the price per Class A Share in the Share Offering Funding from the managing underwriter(s), in the case of a proposed registered public offering, or lead placement agent(s), in the event of an unregistered offering, engaged by SDC Inc. in order to sell the Offered Shares, shall immediately use its reasonable efforts to notify each Tendering Party of the price per Class A Share in the Share Offering Funding and resulting Net Proceeds. Each Tendering Party shall have one hour from the receipt of such written notice (as such time may be extended by SDC Inc.) to elect to withdraw its Redemption (a Tendering Party making such an election being a “Withdrawing Member”), and Common Units with a Class A Shares Amount equal to such excluded Offered Shares shall be considered to be withdrawn from the related Redemption; provided, however, that SDC Inc. shall keep each of the Tendering Parties reasonably informed as to the likely timing of delivery of its notice. If a Tendering Party, within such time period, does not notify SDC Inc. of such Tendering Party’s election to become a Withdrawing Member, then such Tendering Party shall, except as otherwise provided in a Pricing Agreement, be deemed not to have withdrawn from the Redemption, without liability to SDC Inc. To the extent that SDC Inc. is unable to notify any Tendering Party, such unnotified Tendering Party shall, except as otherwise provided in any Pricing Agreement, be deemed not to have elected to become a Withdrawing Member. Each Tendering Party whose Redemption is being funded through the Share Offering Funding who does not become a Withdrawing Member shall have the right, subject to the approval of the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) and restrictions of any applicable securities Laws, to submit for Redemption additional Common Units in a number no greater than the number of Common Units withdrawn. If more than one Tendering Party so elects to redeem additional Common Units, then such Common Units shall be redeemed on a pro rata basis, based on the number of additional Common Units sought to be so redeemed.

SDC Inc. shall take all reasonable action in order to effectuate the sale of the Offered Shares including, but not limited to, the entering into of an underwriting or placement agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) selected for such offering. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) advises SDC Inc. in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be offered, then SDC Inc. shall so advise all Tendering Parties and the number of Common Units to be sold to SDC Inc. pursuant to the Redemption shall be allocated among all Tendering Parties in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of Common Units as to which each Tendering Party elected to effect a Redemption.

52

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if SDC Inc. is also offering to sell shares for purposes other than to fund the redemption of Offering Units and to pay related expenses, then those other shares may in SDC Inc.’s sole discretion be given priority over any shares to be sold in the Share Offering Funding, and any shares to be sold in the Share Offering Funding shall be removed from the offering prior to removing shares the proceeds of which would be used for other purposes of SDC Inc. No Offered Shares excluded from the offering by reason of the managing underwriter’s or placement agent’s marketing limitation shall be included in such offering.

Each of the Company and SDC Inc. shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable upon a Redemption such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or any provision of applicable Law, and to the extent deduction and withholding is required, such deduction and withholding may be taken in Class A Shares. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority (or, if taken in Class A Shares, cash in the amount of the fair market value of such shares is paid over to the appropriate taxing authority), such amounts will be treated for purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Tendering Party.

ARTICLE XII

ADMISSION OF MEMBERS

A successor to all or a portion of the Manager’s Units pursuant to Section 10.2(b) who the Manager has designated to become a successor Manager shall be admitted to the Company as the Manager, effective immediately upon the Transfer of such Units to it. Upon any such Transfer and the admission of any such transferee as a successor Manager in accordance with this Article XII, the transferor Manager shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement and shall cease to be the Manager of the Company without the consent or approval of any Non-Manager Member. Any such successor shall carry on the business of the Company without dissolution. In each case, the admission shall be subject to the successor Manager executing and delivering to the Company an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission. In the event that the Manager withdraws from the Company, or transfers all of its Units, in violation of this Agreement, or otherwise dissolves or terminates or ceases to be the Manager of the Company, a Majority in Interest of the Members may elect to continue the Company by selecting a successor Manager in accordance with Section 13.1(b).

Section 12.2          Members; Admission of Additional Members.

(a)           After the Effective Date, a Person (other than a then-existing Member) who makes a Capital Contribution to the Company in exchange for Units and in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Company as an Additional Member only upon furnishing to the Manager (i) an executed Joinder to this Agreement, (ii) Consent by Spouse (if applicable), and (iii) such other documents and instruments as the Manager may require to effect such Person’s admission as an Additional Member. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of an Additional Member, the Manager shall amend the Register and the books and

53

records of the Company to reflect the name, address, number and type of Units of such Additional Member.

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.2, no Person shall be admitted as an Additional Member without the consent of the Manager. The admission of any Person as an Additional Member shall become effective on the date upon which the name of such Person is recorded on the books and records of the Company, following the consent of the Manager to such admission and the satisfaction of all the conditions set forth in Section 12.2(a).

(c)           If any Additional Member is admitted to the Company on any day other than the first day of a Fiscal Year, then Net Profits, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable among Members for such Fiscal Year shall be allocated among such Additional Member and all other Members by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code, using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method or methods selected by the Manager. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which an admission of any Additional Member occurs shall be allocated among all the Members including such Additional Member, in accordance with the principles described in Section 10.6(c). All distributions with respect to which the Company Record Date is before the date of such admission shall be made solely to Members and Assignees other than the Additional Member, and all distributions thereafter shall be made to all the Members and Assignees including such Additional Member.

(d)           For the admission to the Company of any Member, the Manager shall take all steps necessary and appropriate under the Delaware Act to amend the Register and the books and records of the Company and, if necessary, to prepare as soon as practical an amendment of this Agreement and, if required by Law, shall prepare and file an amendment to the Certificate of Limited Company and may for this purpose exercise the power of attorney granted pursuant to Section 15.2.

Section 12.3          Limit on Number of Members. Unless otherwise permitted by the Manager, no Person shall be admitted to the Company as an Additional Member if the effect of such admission would be to cause the Company to have a number of Members (including as Members for this purpose those Persons indirectly owning an interest in the Company through another partnership, a limited liability company, a subchapter S corporation or a grantor trust) that would cause the Company to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act.

Section 12.4          Admission. A Person shall be admitted to the Company as a Member of the Company only upon strict compliance, and not upon substantial compliance, with the requirements set forth in this Agreement for admission to the Company as a Member.

ARTICLE XIII

DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

Section 13.1          Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Additional Members or Substituted Members or the attempted withdrawal or resignation of a Member. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each, a “Liquidating Event”):

(a)           the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets;

(b)           the Incapacitation of the Manager; provided, that the Company will not be dissolved or required to be wound up in connection with the Incapacitation of the Manager (and such Incapacitation shall not be considered a Liquidating Event) if, within ninety (90) days after such Incapacitation, the Company, acting by Consent of the Members, appoints a successor Manager effective as of the date of the event;

(c)           an election to dissolve the Company made by the Manager, with the Consent of the Members; or

(d)           the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Delaware Act.

Section 13.2          Distribution upon Dissolution.

(a)           Upon the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 13.1, unless the Company is continued pursuant to Section 13.1, the Manager (or, in the event that there is no remaining Manager or the Manager has dissolved, become Bankrupt or ceased to operate, any Person elected by Consent of the Members) (the Manager or such other Person being referred to herein as the “Liquidator”) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Company and shall take full account of the Company’s liabilities and property, and the Company property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(i)            First, to the satisfaction of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors, including Members who are creditors (other than with respect to liabilities owed to Members in satisfaction of liabilities for distributions), whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof;

(ii)           Second, to the satisfaction of all of the Company’s liabilities to the Members in satisfaction of liabilities for distributions, whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof; and

(iii)          The balance, if any, to the Holders in accordance with and in proportion to their positive Capital Account balances, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods.

The Manager shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article XIII.

(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2(a) that require liquidation of the assets of the Company, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to or

55

upon dissolution of the Company, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company’s assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Holders, the Liquidator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Company (including to those Holders as creditors) and/or distribute to the Holders, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2(a), undivided interests in such Company assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Holders, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the Fair Market Value of any property distributed in kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.

(c)           In the event that the Company is “liquidated,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article XIII to the Holders that have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) to the extent of, and in proportion to, positive Capital Account balances. If any Holder has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Holder shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. In the sole and absolute discretion of the Manager or the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Holder s pursuant to this Article XIII may be:

(i)            distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the Manager and the Holders for the purpose of liquidating Company assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company or of the Manager arising out of or in connection with the Company and/or Company activities. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Holders, from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Manager, in the same proportions and amounts as would otherwise have been distributed to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement; or

(ii)           withheld or escrowed to provide a reasonable reserve for Company liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Company; provided, that such withheld or escrowed amounts shall be distributed to the Holders in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 13.2(a) as soon as practicable.

Section 13.3          Rights of Holders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to the rights of any Holder set forth in a Unit Designation, (a) each Holder shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution, (b) no Holder shall have the right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Company, and (c) no Holder shall have priority over any other Holder as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations.

56

Section 13.4          Termination. The Company shall terminate when all of the assets of the Company, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, shall have been distributed to the Members in the manner provided for in this Article XIII, and the Certificate shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Delaware Act.

Section 13.5          Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between and among the Members during the period of liquidation.

ARTICLE XIV

VALUATION

Section 14.1          Determination. “Fair Market Value” of a specific Company asset will mean the amount which the Company would receive in an all-cash sale of the asset in an arms-length transaction with a willing unaffiliated third party, with neither party having any compulsion to buy or sell, consummated on the day immediately preceding the date on which the event occurred which necessitated the determination of the Fair Market Value (and after giving effect to any transfer taxes payable in connection with the sale), as that amount is determined by the Manager (or, if pursuant to Section 13.2, the Liquidators) in its good faith judgment using all factors, information and data it deems to be pertinent.

ARTICLE XV

(b)           Each of the Members may disclose Confidential Information to its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, counsel, advisers, consultants, outside contractors and other agents, on the condition that such Persons keep the Confidential Information confidential to the same extent as such disclosing party is required to keep the Confidential Information confidential, solely to the extent it is reasonably necessary or appropriate to fulfill its obligations or to exercise its rights under this Agreement; provided, that the disclosing party shall remain liable with respect to any breach of this Section 15.3 by any such Subsidiaries, Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, counsel, advisers, consultants, outside contractors and other agents.

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
