BLACK of the State of New York (hereinafter called the "Grantor"), and LEON D. BLACK (hereinafter, along with any other person, bank or trust company qualifying as additional or successor trustees, referred to as the "Trustees"). WITNESSETH: The property transferred to the Trustees hereunder shall be held by the Trustees IN TRUST subject to the following terms and conditions. This trust agreement shall be known as the LB REVOCABLE TRUST AGREEMENT. FIRST: DISPOSITION OF INITIAL TRUST (A) During the life of the Grantor, the Trustees shall pay to the Grantor so much of the income of this trust as the Trustees may deem advisable in their sole and absolute discretion, including such amount as the Trustees may deem advisable to enable the Grantor to pay income taxes. Any income not directed to be paid shall be accumulated by adding such income to the principal of the trust. (B) At any time and from time to time during the life of the Grantor, the Trustees may, in their sole and absolute discretion, pay to him so much of the principal of this trust as the Trustees may deem advisable, including such amount as the Trustees may deem advisable to enable the Grantor to pay income taxes. (C) At any time and from time to time during the life of the Grantor, the Grantor may withdraw from the income and/or principal of this trust so much of the income and/or principal as the Grantor shall direct by instrument in writing signed and delivered to the Trustees during his lifetime. Doc, : USI:11411909tv16 015446-0C903 EFTA00601830 (D) At any time and from time to time during the life of the Grantor, the Grantor, by instrument signed and delivered to the Trustees, may direct the Trustees to pay income and/or principal to any individual or entity. Any payment made by the Trustees pursuant to such direction shall be deemed to be a withdrawal by the Grantor followed by a transfer to such individual or entity, it being the Grantor's desire to avoid the multiple re-titling of assets. (E) In addition, during any period in which the Grantor is Incapacitated (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH), the Independent Trustees (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH) are authorized to make the following distributions: (1) The Independent Trustees are hereby authorized and empowered to make gifts on the Grantor's behalf of cash or property, either outright or in trust, to or for the benefit of such one or more of (i) the Grantor's wife DEBRA R. BLACK ("DEBRA"), (ii) the Grantor's descendants, (iii) the Grantor's sister JUDY ELLEN BLACK ("JUDY"), (iv) the Grantor's mother SHIRLEY BLACK ("SHIRLEY"), and (v) Qualified Charitable Organizations (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH), as the Independent Trustees, in their sole, absolute and uncontrolled discretion deem advisable, at any time and from time to time. It is the Grantor's intent to permit the Independent Trustees to make gifts either to continue any pattern of gift-giving that the Grantor may have established, or if the Independent Trustees believe that such gifts will be in the best interests of the Grantor's family, taking into consideration the tax consequences of making or refraining from making such gift. The Trustees are further authorized and empowered to pay any gift or generation-skipping transfer ("GST") taxes that may be payable in connection with any gift made pursuant to this provision. 2 Doi: USI:$489096v16 019846-000O3 EFTA00601831 (2) The Independent Trustees are hereby authorized and empowered to pay on the Grantor's behalf such of the Grantor's enforceable debts as they come due. (F) Upon the death of the Grantor, the remaining trust property shall be disposed of as the Grantor may appoint by his Last Will in favor of any appointee or appointees, including his estate. (G) Upon the death of the Grantor, any remaining trust property which is not effectively appointed pursuant to his testamentary power of appointment, together with any property bequeathed to this trust by the Grantor or added hereto at or by reason of the Grantor's death, shall be disposed of as directed hereinafter under this Agreement. SECOND: PERSONAL PROPERTY/ART DISPOSITION (A) If DEBRA survives the Grantor: (1) If the trust property includes any Individual Collectibles (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH) or any interest in an Art Entity (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH), the Grantor directs the Trustees to hold all of the Individual Collectibles, together with all insurance covering the Individual Collectibles, and any such interest in an Art Entity, IN TRUST, in accordance with Clause EIGHTH. (2) If the trust property includes any other articles of personal and household use or ornament, including, without limitation, automobiles, jewelry, furniture and furnishings, the Grantor directs the Trustees to distribute all of the remaining items of personal and household use or ornament; together with all insurance covering those articles, to DEBRA, outright and free of trust. 3 Dori LJM 8489098vI6 019846-00003 EFTA00601832 (B) If DEBRA does not survive the Grantor and one or more of the Grantor's children survive the Grantor: (1) (a) Subject to the power of appropriation granted in subparagraph (B)(1Xb) of this Clause SECOND, if the trust property includes any Individual Collectibles or any interest in an Art Entity, the Grantor directs the Trustees to distribute the Grantor's Collectibles (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH), together with all insurance covering the Grantor's Collectibles, to the LEON BLACK FAMILY FOUNDATION (as defined in Clause THIRTEENTH), if it is then in existence and is then a Qualified Charitable Organization, or if it not then in existence and then a Qualified Charitable Organization, to such one or more other Qualified Charitable Organizations as the Trustees, in their discretion, shall select, including any Qualified Charitable Organizations as are then in existence or as the Trustees shall create after the Grantor's death.

(0 The foregoing power of the Trustees to determine how to satisfy the payments to JON shall be deemed a power of appropriation that shall be exercised, if at all, by acknowledged, written instrument signed at least one day prior to the expiration of nine (9) months from the date of DEBRA'S death. The Grantor confirms that this power of appropriation is intended to be, and shall be treated as, a power described in the flush language following Section 2055(a)(5) of the Code to consume, invade or appropriate property for the benefit of an individual, the complete termination of which before the date prescribed for the filing of the estate tax return for DEBRA's estate shall be considered and deemed to be a qualified disclaimer with the same full force and effect as though a qualified disclaimer of said power had been filed.

NINTH: MARITAL/CHARITABLE DEDUCTION PROVISIONS The following provisions shall apply to the GST Marital Trust created under paragraph (B) of Clause SIXTH and the Marital Trust created under Clause EIGHTH (each a "Marital Trust" and collectively, the "Marital Trusts"): (A) The Grantor confirms that the Grantor's Executors (other than DEBRA) have the absolute discretion to determine whether and to what extent to make an election pursuant to Section 2056(bX7) of the Code, or any successor thereto, and any similar statute under state law. The Grantor's Executors (other than DEBRA) may determine to make said election or elections with respect to all or any part or none of the Marital Trusts, all in the Executors' complete discretion. The Grantor suggests to his Executors (other than DEBRA) by way of illustration and without limiting such Executors' absolute authority, that the Grantor's Executors consider in making said election not only the Federal and state estate tax consequences for the Grantor's estate but also the Federal and state estate and gift tax consequences for DEBRA which result from said election. The determination of the Grantor's Executors (other than DEBRA) as to 18 Doclf: USI:8489O98v16 0191i46-00001 EFTA00601847 whether and to what extent to make said election shall be absolute and conclusive, regardless of the personal interest any Executor may have in the consequences of such election. The Grantor's Executors shall not be held liable, responsible or accountable, in court or otherwise, to any beneficiary, for the consequences of the exercise, the manner of exercise or failure to exercise the power granted under this Clause NINTH. (B) The Grantor directs that any trust principal passing to a Marital Trust which the Grantor's Executors (other than DEBRA) do not elect to qualify for the marital deduction shall be held in a separate trust, apart from the principal of the Marital Trust for which an election is made by the Grantor's Executors to qualify for the marital deduction. The Grantor further directs that any trust principal passing to a Marital Trust for which the Grantor's Executors (other than DEBRA) elect to qualify for the marital deduction for either state estate tax purposes or Federal estate tax purposes, but not both, also shall be held in a separate trust. All such Marital Trusts shall be administered under paragraph (B) of Clause SIXTH and Clause EIGHTH, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms above set forth. Without imposing any legal obligation upon the Trustees, the Grantor recommends that, in making discretionary principal payments to DEBRA, the Trustees take into account all potential transfer taxes.
