Partner (hereinafter the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be referred to collectively as the

the Partnership, and such Partner's Partnership Percentage are set forth on a separate and confidential
EXHIBIT A hereto, marked as EXIIIBIT A-1 thru EXHIBIT A-i (with a separate EXHIBIT A for each Partner).
The General Partner shall cause EXHIBIT A to be amended from time to time to reflect the admission of

person may be admitted as a Partner only with the consent of the General Partner and Eighty Percent in
Interest of the Limited Partners.
(b) Notwithstanding subparagraph (a) above, additional persons may be admitted as
Limited Partners (or existing Limited Partners may increase their Capital Commitments) with the consent
of only the General Partner on or before the date that is sianine (62) months after the Initial
GlesingCommencement Date; provided that the aggregate capital commitments to the Partnership and the
Parallel Funds shall not exceed two hundred and-fifty-million dollars ($2500,000,000).
(c) Each additional person admitted as a Limited Partner subsequent to the Initial
Closing Date (and each existing Limited Partner that increases its Capital Commitment) shall (i) execute
2.
147765658 v44
EFTA00808286
and deliver to the Partnership a counterpart of this Agreement or otherwise take such actions as the
General Partner shall deem appropriate in order for such Limited Partner to become bound by the terms of
this Agreement, (ii) contribute that portion of its (or such) Capital Commitment which is equal to the
portion of the respective Capital Commitments contributed to date by the Partnership's previously
admitted Limited Partners, and (iii) pay to the Partnership a "Late Admission Charge" (which shall be
deemed Ordinary Income of the Partnership and not be treated as a capital contribution) equal to interest
on the amount contributed by such Partner pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) at an annual interest rate
that is two hundred basis points (2.0%) higher than the Prime Rate (determined as of the close of business
on the date of such admission or increase), compounded daily, from the date(s) that such Partner would
have been required to contribute such amount if it had been admitted (or had such increased Capital
Commitment) at-the-initial-Glesingas of the Rartnershiplnitial Closing Date; provided that this clause (iii)
shall not apply to a Limited Partner admitted to the Partnership (or allowed to increase its Capital

Limited Partner may be paid to the Partnership through an offsetting reduction in such Limited Partner's
Capital Account balance.
(d) Upon the admission of any additional Limited Partner pursuant to this paragraph
3.2, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, make a special distribution of all or a portion of the
initial contribution of capital made by such additional Limited Partner. Such distribution shall be made to
all Partners in accordance with Partnership Percentages (as adjusted to reflect the admission of such
additional Limited Partner) and shall be deemed to be a return of capital to such Partners; provided,
however, that such Partners shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph 4.2, not to have contributed
the amount of such distribution, and the amounts of their respective unfunded Capital Commitments shall
be increased accordingly.
3.3 Removal of the General Partner.
(a) Immediately following a Trigger Event (as defined below), the General Partner
shall provide notice to the Limited Partners of the Trigger Event, and at the election of Two-Thirds in
Interest of the Limited Partners, pursuant to a vote occurring during any time during the one hundred and
eighty (180) day period following such notice to the Limited Partners, the General Partner may be
removed from its capacity as the general partner of the Partnership.
(b) In the event of the removal of the General Partner pursuant to paragraph 3.3(a),
the Limited Partners, acting by the same Percentage in Interest required of the vote to remove, shall be
entitled to appoint a replacement general partner on such economic terms and other terms as the
replacement general partner and a Two-Thirds in Interest of the Limited Partners may agree. In such
event: (i) the removed General Partner shall not be entitled to retain any rights or powers of a general
partner of the Partnership and shall become a special limited partner of the Partnership with a continued
interest in allocations of Profit and Loss and distributions of Partnership cash and assets pursuant to
Articles 5, 7 and 10 hereof; (ii) the removed General Partner shall no longer be required to make
additional capital contributions to the Partnership pursuant to paragraph 4.3 and the removed General
Partner's Capital Commitment shall be equal to the amount actually contributed pursuant to paragraph
4.3; (iii) the removed General Partner shall be entitled to receive all allocations and distributions to which
it would otherwise be entitled to receive had it not been removed when, as and if such allocations and
distributions are made, in respect of all activities of and investments by the Partnership that occurred or
were committed to by the Partnership prior to the effective date of removal; provided, however, that the
removed General Partner shall be entitled to receive one hundred percent (100%) of all allocations and
3.
147765658 •44
EFTA00808287
distributions in respect of its capital contributions; (iv) the removed General Partner shall not be entitled
to receive any payments of management fee pursuant to paragraph 6.1 with respect to any period of time
after the date of its removal; (v) the removed General Partner and any Indemnified Party shall remain
entitled to exculpation and indemnification pursuant to paragraphs 15.3 and 15.4 with respect to any
matter arising prior to or out of events or circumstances existing prior to the General Partner's removal;
and (vi) an interest in the Partnership equal to the General Partner's unfunded Capital Commitment and
the remaining carried interest in the Partnership shall be transferred to the replacement general partner
upon its admission to the Partnership.
(c) For purposes of this paragraph 3.3, a "Trigger Event' shall have occurred if the
General Partner or any Managing Member is (i) found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitration
carried out pursuant to paragraph 15.5 to have committed (or enters a plea of nolo contendere to having
committed) embezzlement, fraud or any other act involving material improper personal benefit against the
Partnership or its assets, or (ii) is convicted of a violation of federal or state securities law or a felony (but
not including a felony involving the use of a motor vehicle) in a manner that had a material adverse effect
on the Partnership; provided, however, that no Trigger Event shall be deemed to have occurred if, in the
case of acts by a Managing Member, the offending individual is removed as a managing member of the
General Partner within thirty (30) days after the court judgment or arbitration decision, or conviction,
which would otherwise have given rise to a Trigger Event under this paragraph 3.3.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph 15.11 and in the event of any election
made to remove the General Partner, the Partners agree to amend this Agreement in good faith in order to
give effect to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3.3, including but not limited to revising Exhibit
A to reflect changes in the Partners' identities, Capital Commitments and Partnership Percentages.
The General Partner shall promptly notify the Limited Partners if the General
Partner or any Managing Member is found to have committed (or enters a plea of nolo contendere to
having committed) embezzlement, fraud or any other act involving material improper personal benefit, or
is convicted of a violation of federal or state securities law or a felony, regardless of whether any such act
relates to the Partnership or not.
ARTICLE 4
CAPITAL ACCOUNTS, CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS
AND NONCONTRIBUTING PARTNERS
4.1 Capital Accounts. An individual Capital Account shall be maintained for each Partner.
4.2 Capital Contributions of the Limited Partners.
(a) Each Limited Partner shall contribute capital to the Partnership as requested by
the General Partner upon ten (10) business days' prior written notice (which such notice shall be given by
electronic mail or by a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, in
accordance with paragraph 15.9); provided, that the initial capital contribution from each Limited Partner
shall not be due earlier than January 1, 20168. The General Partner may request capital contributions
from the Limited Partners, on the terms specified in this paragraph 4.2(a) or as altered under a Side Letter.
Except as set forth in paragraphs 3.2(c) and 4.2(b), each capital contribution shall be in accordance with
Partnership Percentages; provided, however, that the capital contributions from the Limited Partners may
be adjusted by the General Partner in good faith in order to account for the fact that no Management Fee
is chargeable in respect of the General Partner's interest in the Partnership. Notwithstanding anything in
the foregoing to the contrary, no Limited Partner shall be required to contribute any capital after the fifth
4.
147765658 v44
EFTA00808288
anniversary of the Commencement Date (the period between the Commencement Date and the fifth
anniversary thereof being referred to herein as the "Commitment Period"), except as may be necessary
for (a) Partnership expenses, including, but not limited to, payment of any Management Fee (as defined
below) due to the General Partner; (b) completion of transactions evidenced by a written terms sheet (or
other similar statement of intent to make an investment that has been executed by the Partnership) prior to
the end of the Commitment Period; (c) follow-on investments in the Securities of issuers in which the
Partnership holds a pre-existing interest as of the date of such proposed follow-on investment; and (d)
fulfillment of such Limited Partner's obligations pursuant to paragraph 4.2(d)(i). Further, each Limited
Partner's obligation to contribute capital shall also be subject to those limitations set forth in paragraph
4.6. Each capital contribution by any Limited Partner shall be made in U.S. dollars and made in cash or
by transfer of immediately-available funds.
(b) Notwithstanding paragraph 4.2(a), with respect to the Partnership's initial request
for capital contributions under this paragraph 4.2, in the event that the sum of the Capital Commitments
of all Limited Partners that are "benefit plan investors" is such as would make their "equity participation"
in the Partnership "significant," within the meaning of those terms under U.S. Department of Labor
Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") (the "DOL Regulations"), then no such Limited Partner shall be
required to contribute capital to the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement until such time as the General
Partner shall have delivered to such Limited Partner an opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Limited Partner) to the effect that the Partnership's first portfolio
company investment (other than a short-term investment of funds pending long-term commitment) has
qualified or will qualify upon the funding of each Limited Partner's initial capital contribution as a
"venture capital investment" within the meaning of the DOL Regulations such that the Partnership will
qualify as a "venture capital operating company" (a "VCOC') within the meaning of the DOL
Regulations (the "VCOC Opinion"). In the event that such a Limited Partner has not received the VCOC
Opinion prior to the date on which any capital contribution would otherwise be due under paragraph
4.2(a), such Limited Partner shall pay such capital contribution into an interest-bearing escrow account
designated by the General Partner. The terms of any such escrow account shall be determined by the
General Partner in compliance with ERISA (including the principles and conditions indicated in Dept. of
Labor Adv. Op. 95-04A), to the extent applicable. Upon delivery of the VCOC Opinion, all amounts in
the escrow account shall be delivered to the Partnership in fulfillment of such Limited Partner's
then-outstanding obligations under paragraph 4.2(a).
(c) The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, return to the Partners all or a
portion of any capital contribution intended for a proposed investment which is not consummated as
anticipated pro rata in accordance with their respective capital contributions; provided, however, that
such returned capital shall be added back to unfunded Capital Commitments pro raw in accordance with
the percentages in which such returned capital was attributed to the Capital Commitments when such
capital was called and be subject to recall by the General Partner pursuant to this Article 4.
(d) If, in the discretion of the General Partner, Partnership assets are
insufficient to fulfill any indemnification obligation of the Partnership pursuant to paragraph 15.4 prior to
the final liquidation of the Partnership, the General Partner may to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law require each Partner to contribute capital to the Partnership in an amount up to such
Partner's unfunded Capital Commitment, if any.
(ii) If, in the discretion of the General Partner, Partnership assets remain
insufficient to fulfill any indemnification obligation of the Partnership pursuant to paragraph 15.4, and
following the contribution to the Partnership of the maximum amount then permitted by paragraph
4.2(d)(i), the General Partner may recall distributions previously made to the Partners solely for the
5.
147765658 v44
EFTA00808289
purpose of fulfilling or satisfying such an obligation or liability. Such distributions shall be recalled from
the Partners in the same proportions as the expense (or loss) of the indemnity obligation giving rise to
such recontribution was allocated to the Partners pursuant to Article 5. In no event shall any Partner be
required to contribute capital pursuant to this paragraph 4.2(d)(ii) in an amount in excess of the lesser of
(I) all distributions previously received by the Partner from the Partnership or (2) twenty-five percent
(25%) of such Partner's Capital Commitment. In no event will the General Partner be permitted to call
capital pursuant to this paragraph 4.2(d)(ii) in connection with a certain distribution after the earlier of
(A) the date two (2) years after the Termination Date (or any subsequent date to which the Partnership
term has previously been extended pursuant to paragraph 10.1) and (B) the date three (3) years after the
date of such distribution.
(iii) In the event that the Partners are required to return distributions as
provided in paragraph 4.2(dXii) following the final liquidation of the Partnership, paragraph 10.5 shall be
reapplied to account for the associated indemnification expense and, to the extent that the General Partner
would have any additional obligation to return capital pursuant to paragraph 10.5 as a result of such
reapplication (the "Paragraph 10.5 Reapplication Amount), the proportions in which the Partners bear
the return obligation pursuant to paragraph 4.2(dXii) shall be appropriately adjusted by increasing the
General Partner's obligation to contribute capital to the Partnership pursuant to paragraph 4.2(d)(ii) by the
Paragraph 10.5 Reapplication Amount, and reducing the aggregate obligation of the Limited Partners to
contribute capital pursuant to paragraph 4.2(d)(ii) by a like amount. For the purpose of this paragraph
4.2(d)(iii) only, the aggregate maximum amount that the General Partner may be required to return to the
Partnership pursuant to paragraph 10.5 shall not be limited to After-Tax Distribution Amount.
4.3 Capital Contributions of the General Partner. The General Partner and/or its
designated Affiliate shall contribute capital to the Partnership, and have a Capital Commitment, in an
amount equal to 1.0028% of the aggregate Capital Commitments of all Partners, on the same schedule
and terms under which any Limited Partner makes a contribution. Further, the General Partner or its
Affiliates, or their respective members, may contribute additional capital to one or more Parallel Funds.
Twenty percent (20%) of each capital contribution made by the General Partner or its designated Affiliate
shall be made in cash. Eighty percent (80%) of each capital contribution made by the General Partner or
its designated Affiliate shall not be made in cash, but shall be deemed to have been made by the General
Partner or its designated Affiliate and shall result in a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the amount of
management fee that it would otherwise receive pursuant to paragraph 6.1 in the manner set forth in
paragraph 6.1(cXii) (the amount of each such deemed contribution, a "Cashless Contribution"). If a
designated Affiliate of the General Partner makes the Capital Commitment described in this paragraph
4.3, then the interest so held by the designated Affiliate shall be a Limited Partner's interest and treated as
an interest held by a Limited Partner for all purposes under this Agreement.
4.4 Acquisition of an Additional Interest by the General Partner. In the event that the
General Partner or its designated Affiliate acquires or holds an additional interest in the Partnership with a
Capital Commitment that exceeds 4410281.0% of the aggregate Capital Commitments of all Partners
(pursuant to a transfer from another Limited Partner or otherwise), the General Partner shall have two (2)
Partnership Percentages and two (2) Capital Account balances for purposes of making Partnership
allocations—(4flekieting—aarrealleeatien—ef--Centingent—hesses—pursufrat—te—pacagraph-5,33, as if such
additional excess interest were held by a separate entity which is a Limited Partner, although for all other
purposes the General Partner shall have only one Capital Account.
4.5 Noncontributing Partners.
(a) The Partnership shall be entitled to enforce the obligations of each Limited
Partner to make the contributions to capital set forth in paragraph 4.2, and the Partnership shall have all

remedies available at law or in equity in the event any such contribution is not so made. If any legal
proceedings relating to the failure of a Limited Partner to make such a contribution are commenced, such
Limited Partner shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by the Partnership, including attorneys' fees and
expenses, in connection with such proceedings.
(b) Additionally, without in any way limiting any remedy which the Partnership may
pursue pursuant to paragraph 4.5(a), should any Limited Partner fail to make any of the capital
contributions required of it under this Agreement, such Limited Partner shall be in default. In the event of
such default, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, elect to enforce one or more of the provisions
of this paragraph 4.5(b) in connection with such a default, to which each Limited Partner hereby
expressly consents, provided such default shall have continued uncured for ten (10) or more days after
delivery of the Default Notice described in the following sentence (after such ten (10)-day period, such
Limited Partner shall be deemed a "Defaulting Limited Partner"). The General Partner shall deliver
written notice to such Defaulting Limited Partner in the event that it determines to utilize one or more of
the powers set forth in this paragraph 4.5(b) (a "Default Notice"). If the default shall have continued
uncured for ten (10) or more days after delivery of the Default Notice, the Defaulting Limited Partner
may not make any additional contributions of capital against such Defaulting Limited Partner's Capital
Commitment (other than to fund Management Fees and other expenses of the Partnership) without the
written consent of the General Partner, which consent may be granted or denied in the sole discretion of
the General Partner. In enforcing any of the following provisions of this paragraph 4.5(b) against a
Defaulting Limited Partner, the General Partner agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
enforce such provisions against such Defaulting Limited Partner in a manner so as to prevent the other
non-Defaulting Limited Partners from bearing a net economic burden attributable to Management Fees
that, absent such default, would be borne by the Defaulting Limited Partner if the Defaulting Limited
Partner were to retain its interest in the Partnership and make capital contributions in respect thereof.
The General Partner may waive, in whole or in part, the requirement of
payment with respect to any due and unpaid capital contributions by a Defaulting Limited Partner
pursuant to this Agreement and reduce such Defaulting Limited Partner's Capital Commitment
accordingly.
(ii) The General Partner may extend the time of payment for a Defaulting
Limited Partner of any due and unpaid capital contributions by such Defaulting Limited Partner pursuant
to this Agreement.
(iii) The General Partner may declare the entire amount of a Defaulting
Limited Partner's then unfunded Capital Commitment to be immediately due and payable.
(iv) On behalf of the Partnership, the General Partner may enforce, by
appropriate legal proceedings, the Defaulting Limited Partner's obligation to make payment on the
amount of any due and unpaid capital contributions by such Defaulting Limited Partner pursuant to this
Agreement or to pay the entire amount of such Defaulting Limited Partner's then unfunded Capital
Commitment.
(v) The Defaulting Limited Partner shall have no right to participate in any
vote or consent of the Partners required under this Agreement or permitted under the Act and the Capital
Commitment of such Defaulting Limited Partner shall not be included for purposes of calculating a
Majority in Interest or other Percentage in Interest of the Limited Partners for purposes of this Agreement.
(vi) Should the General Partner, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise the
provisions of this paragraph 4.5(bXvi), such Defaulting Limited Partner shall pay all expenses to be

incurred or anticipated to be incurred by the Partnership in connection with the default and interest on the
amount of the contribution to the Partnership then due at the Prime Rate plus one hundred (100) basis
points per annum (or if less, the highest rate permitted by applicable law), such interest to accrue from the
date the contribution to the Partnership was required to be made pursuant to this Agreement until the date
the contribution is made by such Defaulting Limited Partner, unless such payment is waived by the
General Partner. The accrued interest shall be paid by the Defaulting Limited Partner to the Partnership
upon payment
