(1) Each year the Trustees shall distribute to the Senior an amount equal to the Trust Accounting Income in such installments as may be convenient to the Trustees. (2) For purposes of this section, the term "Trust Accounting Income" shall mean any distribution received by the Trust with respect to an interest in any of the Relevant Companies held in the Trust to the extent such distribution is derived from the Operating Profits NY I AI470407,01W5KN0I LDOCC6504.0001 EFTA01127607 of any such Relevant Company. For purposes of this section, the term "Operating Profits" shall mean net profits for any year without taking into account any items of income, gain, loss or deduction generated or incurred in connection with a transaction constituting a Distribution Event. For purposes of this section, the term "Distribution Event" shall be interpreted broadly, and shall mean an extraordinary transaction (or a series of related transactions) involving any one or more of the Relevant Companies, whether occurring directly or indirectly, that constitutes a sale to, or material investment by, a Third Party Investor, in circumstances in which one or more members or partners of the Relevant Companies receive Distributions (or sales proceeds in respect of their interests) as a result of, or in connection with, such extraordinary transaction (or series of related transactions). For purposes of this section, the term "Distributions" shall mean all distributions made by any Relevant Company to its members or partners, whether in cash, property, dividends or distributions upon the occurrence of a dissolution of such Company or otherwise. For purposes of this section, the term "Third Party Investor" shall mean a Person who is not a private equity professional employed by a Relevant Company and who makes an investment in the Relevant Company in circumstances designed to monetize one or more of the equity interests in any Relevant Company.

NY I A/ 470407101WSICNOI LD0026504.0001 2 EFTA01127608 (B) Distributions. (1) The Trustees shall pay or apply as much of the income of the Trust not disposed of pursuant to section (A) of this section and as much of the principal of the Trust to DEBRA so long as DEBRA is a Beneficiary as the Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine is necessary for DEBRA's health, education, support and maintenance, taking into consideration DEBRA's financial resources apart from the Trust. (2) The Trustees shall pay or apply as much of the remaining income of the Trust not disposed of pursuant to section (A) of this section and as much of the principal of the Trust as the Independent Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine, to or for the benefit of such one or more of the Beneficiaries (to the exclusion of any one or more of them) and in such amounts or proportions as the Independent Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine. Payments or applications pursuant to this subsection may be made at any time or from time to time, for any reason or purpose whatsoever. In exercising the discretion granted in this subsection, the Independent Trustees need not, but may, consider such of the financial resources apart from the Trust as they deem appropriate of the Beneficiaries, or any one or more of them. (3) At the end of each year, the Trustees shall add to principal any net income not paid or applied pursuant to the previous provisions of this Article. The Settlor confirms that the entire Trust Fund may be distributed at any time to or for the benefit of any one or more of the Beneficiaries pursuant to this section, even though such distribution terminates the Trust, without regard to the interest of any remainderman of the Trust. (C) Trust Termination. (1) Unless sooner terminated by the distribution of the entire Trust Fund, the Trust shall terminate upon the death of the Settlor, or, if the Senior is survived by the Settlor's spouse, upon the earlier to occur of the death of the Settlor's spouse and the Perpetuities Date. The date on which the Trust is to terminate is referred to as the NYIA1470407,01WSXNOILD00.26504.0001 3 EFTA01127609 "Termination Date." Upon such termination, the Trustees shall pay the Trust Fund to the Settlor's Children living on the Termination Date in equal shares, or if none of the Senior's Children is living on the Termination Date, to the Settlor's issue living on the Termination Date, subject, in each case, to the provisions of Article HI. (2) Notwithstanding subsection (1), at any time or from time to time within one year following the death of the survivor of the Senior and the Settlor's spouse, and before actual distribution of the Trust Fund in accordance with subsection (1), the Trustees shall have the power to make loans to and to purchase assets from any estate or any trust, as described in Article VI, and to delay the actual distribution of the Trust Fund for that purpose. The authority granted by the preceding sentence shall not affect the vesting of the Trust Fund, which shall be determined as of the date of the Trust's termination as described in the first sentence of subsection (1). SEPARATE TRUSTS FOR ISSUE If at the termination of any Trust (including any Trust under this Article), any share of such Trust is payable to an issue of the Settlor subject to the provisions of this Article, such share shall not be paid outright to such issue (referred to in this Article as the "Primary Beneficiary"), but shall instead be held in as many separate Trusts for the benefit of the Primary Beneficiary upon the terms set forth in this Article as the Trustees of such terminated Trust, in their sole discretion, shall direct. (A) Distributions. (I) The Trustees shall pay to the Primary Beneficiary, or apply for his or her benefit, as much of the Trust Fund as the Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine is necessary for the Primary Beneficiary's health, education, support and NY I Al470407,01WSKN0ILDOCC6504.0001 4 EFTA01127610 maintenance, taking into consideration the Primary Beneficiary's financial resources apart from the Trust. (2) The Trustees shall pay to the Primary Beneficiary or apply for his or her benefit, as much of the Trust Fund as the Independent Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine. Payments or applications pursuant to this subsection may be made at any time or from time to time, for any reason or purpose whatsoever. In exercising the discretion granted in this subsection, the Independent Trustees need not, but may, consider such of the Primary Beneficiary's financial resources apart from the Trust as they deem appropriate. (3) At the end of each year, the Trustees shall add to principal any net income not so paid or applied. The Settlor confirms that the entire Trust Fund may be distributed at any time to or for the benefit of the Primary Beneficiary pursuant to this section, even though such distribution terminates the Trust, without regard to the interest of any remainderman of the Trust. (4) It is the Senior's desire, but not the Settlor's direction, that when the Primary Beneficiary attains thirty-five (35) years of age, the Trustees distribute to the Primary Beneficiary TEN (10%) PERCENT of the Trust Fund if the Independent Trustees believe it appropriate to do so. (B) Primary Beneficiary's Right to Direct Payment. (1) In each calendar year prior to the year of the Primary Beneficiary's death, if the Primary Beneficiary is competent and at least twenty-five (25) years of age at the beginning of such year, the Primary Beneficiary shall have the absolute right, from time to time, to direct the Trustees to pay to the Primary Beneficiary out of the Trust Fund an aggregate amount not exceeding the amount (the "Annual Amount"), if any, by which (i) an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Trust Fund valued on the Withdrawal Valuation Date as hereinafter defined of the calendar year in which the NY 1:U47WOT01WSKN0I LD0026504.0001 5 EFTA01127611 Primary Beneficiary submits such direction exceeds (ii) the sum of all amounts paid or applied pursuant to section (A) to or for the benefit of the Primary Beneficiary during the portion of such calendar year preceding such direction, provided that such Primary Beneficiary's right to direct such payment has not been postponed, suspended or terminated pursuant to Article IV(J). For purposes of this section, the term "calendar year" shall include the portion of the calendar year following the Trust Commencement Date, but shall not include the portion of the calendar year of the Primary Beneficiary's death that precedes the Primary Beneficiary's death. The right to direct payment shall be noncumulative and shall be exercised by a written instrument signed by the Primary Beneficiary alone (and not by any guardian, conservator, committee, attorney-in-fact or other legal representative purporting to act on the Primary Beneficiary's behalf) and delivered to the Trustees prior to the close of such year. (2) In any particular calendar year, the Trustees are authorized to make payments to the Primary Beneficiary on account of the Annual Amount based upon the lesser of (a) the value of the Trust Fund at the time of such direction and (b) the value of the Trust Fund on the first day of such calendar year, notwithstanding that (i) the Annual Amount cannot be precisely determined until the end of such year and (ii) the Primary Beneficiary may not be living at the end of such year. At the end of such year, in determining the Annual Amount, any such payment shall be treated as an asset, in the form of a loan from the Trust, valued at the amount distributed, until the moment immediately following the time of determination of the Annual Amount. If it is determined, after the end of such year, that there has been an overpayment, then the Primary Beneficiary (or the Primary Beneficiary's Personal Representatives, if the Primary Beneficiary is not then living) shall repay to the Trustees the amount by which the aggregate payments made in such year on account of the Annual Amount NY I Al 470407/01WMCNOI WOO:16504.000i 6 EFTA01127612 o exceed the Annual Amount. The Primary Beneficiary's Personal Representatives shall repay to the Trustees an amount equal to the aggregate payments, if any, made to the Primary Beneficiary during the year of the Primary Beneficiary's death on account of the Annual Amount. (3) For purposes of this section, the "Withdrawal Valuation Date" for any particular calendar year shall be the first day of such calendar year, unless the value of the Trust Fund on the last day of such calendar year is less than the value of the Trust Fund on the first day of such calendar year, in which case the "Withdrawal Valuation Date" for such calendar year shall be the last day of such calendar year. (C) Powers of Appointment. (1) At any time or from time to time, the Primary Beneficiary, if he or she is at least twenty-five (25) years of age, shall have the absolute power to appoint any part or all of the Trust Fund to or for the benefit of such one or more of the Settlor's issue (other than the Primary Beneficiary and other than those whose deaths preceded the time the appointment is effective) in such amounts and proportions, either outright or in further trust, upon such terms and conditions (including the granting to the appointee of a further and general or limited power of appointment), and to the exclusion of any one or more of them, as the Primary Beneficiary shall determine, provided that such Primary Beneficiary's power of appointment has not been postponed, suspended or terminated pursuant to Article IV(1). The Primary Beneficiary may exercise this power of appointment at any time when he or she is competent either (a) by a written instrument that is delivered to the Trustees, which makes specific reference to this section and which is signed and acknowledged by the Primary Beneficiary or (b) by a provision in his or her Will that makes specific reference to this section. Any appointment made by such exercise shall be effective on the date specified in the written instrument or in the Primary Beneficiary's Will, as the case may be, provided, however, that, in NYIA147040T0IWSKN0RDOC\26504:001 7 EFTA01127613 the case of an exercise by Will, such date shall not precede the date of the Primary Beneficiary's death. (2) (a) The Independent Trustees, at any time, may grant to the Primary Beneficiary a general power of appointment (as defined in § 2041 of the Code) which may be subject to such restrictions as the Independent Trustees set forth in the instrument by which the power is granted. The grant of this power shall be effected by written instrument signed by a majority of the Independent Trustees and delivered to the Primary Beneficiary, and may be revoked at any time during the Primary Beneficiary's lifetime by written instrument of revocation signed by a majority of the Independent Trustees and delivered to the Primary Beneficiary. If revoked, a new power of appointment may be granted as provided in the preceding provisions of this subsection. (b) In considering whether to grant a general power of appointment to the Primary Beneficiary, the Settlor requests that the Independent Trustees give particular consideration to the likelihood that generation-skipping transfer taxes imposed on the Trust at the Primary Beneficiary's death would exceed the estate taxes otherwise payable with respect to the Trust if the Trust Fund were included in the Primary Beneficiary's gross estate for estate tax purposes. For this purpose, the Independent Trustees may rely without further investigation on a statement provided by or on behalf of the Primary Beneficiary as to the potential value of the Primary Beneficiary's gross estate. (D) Trust Termination. Unless sooner terminated by the distribution of the entire Trust Fund, the Trust shall terminate on the date of the Primary Beneficiary's death. Upon such termination, the Trustees shall pay the Trust Fund, if and to the extent not effectively appointed pursuant to a power granted under this Article, to the Primary Beneficiary's issue who NY I A1470407101WSKNOI !DOC Q6504.0001 8 EFTA01127614 survive the Primary Beneficiary, or, if no issue of the Primary Beneficiary survives the Primary Beneficiary, to the issue who survive the Primary Beneficiary of the Primary Beneficiary's nearest ancestor who was an issue of the Senior and who has issue who survive the Primary Beneficiary, or, if there is no such ancestor or issue, to the Settlor's issue who survive the Primary Beneficiary, subject, in each case, to the provisions of this Article. (E) Termination on Perpetuities Date. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, the Trust shall terminate, unless it shall have sooner terminated, on the Perpetuities Date. Upon such termination, the Trustees shall pay the Trust Fund to the Primary Beneficiary, outright and not in trust. IV: SPECIAL DISTRIBUTION RULES (A) Per Stirpital Distributions. Except when otherwise provided, mandatory distributions or payments of property to the issue of a particular individual (including distributions subject to the provisions of Article III) shall be distributed or paid on a per stirpes basis. The preceding sentence shall not apply to discretionary distributions or payments, or to payments made pursuant to the exercise of a power of appointment granted under this Trust Agreement. A per stirpital distribution or payment shall require an initial division into the number of shares required to provide one share for each then living child of such individual, if any, and one share for each then deceased child of such individual who has issue then living. Each then living child shall be allotted one share and the share of each deceased child shall be divided in the same manner among such deceased child's then living issue. (B) Beneficiaries Under a Legal Disability or Under 21. (1) Distribution of any money or other property from any Trust to an individual who is under a legal disability may, in the sole discretion of the Trustees, be made directly to that individual, or to any Person NY 1 Al47040701WSKNO I LDOCV.6504.0001 9 EFTA01127615 (including a Trustee) who is that individual's parent or that individual's guardian, conservator or similar fiduciary in whatever jurisdiction appointed and however denominated. (2) In addition, distribution of any money or other property from any Trust to an individual who is younger than twenty-one (21) years of age (whether or not he or she is an "infant" or "minor" under local law and whether or not he or she is under any other legal disability), may be made to a Person selected by the Trustees (including a Trustee) as custodian for such individual's benefit under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act of any jurisdiction. (3) Any receipt or release furnished by a Person who receives a distribution pursuant to this section on behalf of a beneficiary shall fully release and discharge the Trustees with respect to such distribution, even though the Person furnishing such receipt or release is a Trustee. (4) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this section, no distribution of property pursuant to this section or pursuant to law may be made to the Settlor in any capacity. (C) Adopted, Out-of-Wedlock and Posthumously Conceived Children. (1) An individual legally adopted on or before his or her nineteenth (19th) birthday shall be deemed to be a descendant of his or her adoptive parent or parents, and shall be deemed not to be a descendant of a parent of his or hers who consented to such adoption unless the adoption did not terminate such parent's rights as a parent, or unless such parent also adopted such individual. (2) Except as provided in subsection (3) and Article XIE(A)(23), the adoption of an individual after his or her nineteenth (19th) birthday by an adoptive parent other than the NY I Al47040,01WSKNOILDOC126.504.0001 10 EFTA01127616 Settlor shall be ignored for purposes of determining his or her status as a descendant of any individual. (3) An individual who is the genetic child of parents who were not married to each other at the time of his or her birth shall be deemed not to be a descendant of his or her genetic father (a) unless the father (i) marries his or her mother or was married to his or her mother at any time during the period starting at the time of such individual's conception and ending at the time of his or her birth, (ii) adopts the individual at any time, or (iii) acknowledges his paternity of such individual in a signed instrument filed with any court or governmental agency or delivered to any Trustee during such father's lifetime, or (b) unless subsection (5) applies. (4) Except as provided in subsection (5), an individual who is the genetic child of parents who were not married to each other at the time of his or her birth shall be deemed to be a descendant of his or her genetic mother unless she has no legal rights as a parent of such child under local law. (5) An individual who is the genetic child of a parent who was deceased at the time of such individual's conception shall be deemed to be a descendant of such parent only if (i) such individual was born within the two (2) year period after such parent's death and before the Perpetuities Date, (ii) such parent gave permission for the use of his or her genetic material to the surviving parent in connection with the conception of such individual by such parents in an instrument that was signed by the deceased parent, and (iii) such deceased parent (if living) would have had legal rights as a parent of such child upon his or her birth under local law. (6) An individual who is deemed to be a descendant of his or her adoptive parent by reason of adoption shall be deemed to be a descendant of all ancestors of such parent. NY I Al470407,01WSKN0I LD0026504.0001 11 EFTA01127617 An individual who is deemed not to be a descendant of a parent of his or hers who consented to his or her adoption by another shall be deemed not to be a descendant of any ancestor of such consenting parent unless such individual is a descendant of such ancestor without regard to his or her relationship to such consenting parent. An individual who is deemed not to be a descendant of his or her parent pursuant to subsection (3) or (4) shall be deemed not to be a descendant of any ancestor of such parent unless such individual is a descendant of such ancestor independent of his or her relationship to such parent. (D) Survivorship. Any beneficiary whose entitlement to property (whether income or principal and whether outright or in trust) under this Trust Agreement depends upon his or her surviving the occurrence of some event who dies under such circumstances that it is difficult or impossible to determine whether or not he or she was alive upon the occurrence of such event shall be deemed for all purposes of this Trust Agreement to have died prior to the occurrence of such event. (E) (Indisposed of Property. If upon the occurrence of any event any share of a terminated Trust shall not be completely disposed of by the other provisions of this Trust Agreement, then such undisposed of share shall be paid to those individuals who would have inherited it from the Senior, and in the same proportions in which they would have shared it, had the Settlor then died intestate, unmarried, the owner of it, and a resident of the State of New York. (F) Assignment of Trust Interests. No disposition, charge, or encumbrance of the income or principal of any Trust, or any part thereof, by way of anticipation, alienation, or otherwise shall be valid or in any way binding upon the Trustees. No beneficiary of any Trust may assign, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the income or principal of such Trust, or NY I AIONOTOIWSKNOIIDOC126504.0001 12 EFTA01127618 any part thereof, until it shall be paid to such beneficiary by the Trustees. The preceding provisions of this section shall not apply in the case of an exercise of a power of appointment.

Under no circumstances shall § 7-1.6 of the EVII, or any similar provisions of law apply to any Trust. (H) Statutory Reimbursement. Under no circumstances shall § 7-1.11 of the EPTL or any similar provisions of law apply to any Trust if its application to such Trust would cause any portion of the Trust Fund of such Trust to be subject to the claims of the Senior's creditors. (1) Distributions to Trusts. If the Independent Trustees of a Trust (the "original Trust") have the discretion to pay a portion (or all) of the Trust Fund of the original Trust (the "permitted portion") to or for the benefit of any one or more beneficiaries of such Trust (the "original discretionary beneficiaries"), such Independent Trustees may exercise such discretion by directing the payment of any part or all of the permitted portion to the trustee or trustees of another trust for the benefit of one or more of the original discretionary beneficiaries (the "recipient trust"), provided, however, that (i) the recipient trust does not direct or permit payments to or applications by the trustees for the benefit of any Person other than one or more of the beneficiaries of the original Trust, (ii) the recipient trust does not reduce any fixed income interest of any income beneficiary of the original Trust, (iii) the recipient trust ends no later than the Perpetuities Date, and (iv) the Independent Trustees give each beneficiary of the original Trust written notice of his, her or its intention to make such direction at least thirty (30) days before making the direction. For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding sentence, the NY ftle7CMOPOINVSKNOI LDOC‘2650d1X101 13 EFTA01127619 beneficiaries of the original Trust shall include all beneficiaries of such Trust, whether original discretionary beneficiaries, income-only beneficiaries or remaindermen, and for purposes of clause (iv) of the preceding sentence, the beneficiaries of the original Trust shall include only those persons who are competent and to whom current distributions from such Trust may be made. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this section, the terms of the recipient trust may provide any one or more of the original discretionary beneficiaries with a power of appointment exercisable in favor of one or more individuals, regardless of whether any such individual is a beneficiary of the original Trust. (J) Power to Postpone. (1) This Trust Agreement gives each Primary Beneficiary of a Trust under Article III certain powers beginning on the date on which he or she attains the age of twenty-five (25) years or beginning with the first calendar year following the calendar year in which the Primary Beneficiary attained the age of twenty-five (25) years. (a) The Independent Trustees of a Trust under Article III may postpone the age or ages at or after which the Primary Beneficiary of such Trust may acquire such powers, taking into account any prior postponements pursuant to this section. A postponement pursuant to this paragraph shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the Independent Trustees of such Trust and delivered to the Primary Beneficiary at any time prior to the Primary Beneficiary's acquisition of such power. (b) The Independent Trustees of a terminating Trust under Article II or III may, prior to funding a Trust under Article III, postpone the age or ages at or after which the Primary Beneficiary of such Trust would acquire such powers. A postponement pursuant to this paragraph shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the Independent Trustees of the N Y I A147040701WSKNOI LD0Ct26504.0001 14 EFTA01127620 terminating Trust and delivered to such Primary Beneficiary no later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the event upon which the terminating Trust terminates. (c) The Independent Trustees of a Trust under Article III may suspend or terminate the Primary Beneficiary's right to direct payment and/or the Primary Beneficiary's power of appointment under such Article, notwithstanding that either or both powers may have been previously exercised by the Primary Beneficiary. A suspension or termination pursuant to this paragraph shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the Independent Trustees of such Trust and delivered to the Primary Beneficiary prior to the Trust's termination. (2) A postponement, suspension or termination pursuant to this section may be made by the Independent Trustees only if they determine that there is a compelling reason therefor, such as a serious illness or disability of such Primary Beneficiary, a pending divorce, potential or pending creditor claims, potential tax disadvantage to such Primary Beneficiary or his or her family, or similar substantial cause. (K) Exercise of Powers of Appointment. With regard to any power of appointment granted under this Trust Agreement that may be exercised by the Will of the holder of the power, the Trustees may rely on any instrument purporting to be a certified copy of the Will of the holder of the power. Commencing six (6) months after the death of the holder of the power, the Trustees (if they have no actual notice of the existence of a purported will of the holder that exercises such power) shall incur no personal liability for administering the Trust as though the holder had not exercised the power. If the Will that exercises the power is subsequently discovered, any disposition of the Trust property by the Trustees shall be without prejudice to the rights of any appointee to recover the property from any Person to whom the Trustees have paid assets of the Trust or from the Trustees (in their capacities as Trustees) to the NY I :t1470*07,01WSIG•40 I W0026304.000 I 15 EFTA01127621 extent of any remaining Trust property. The exercise in DEBRA's Will of a power of appointment granted under this Trust Agreement shall be valid only if DEBRA is the Settlor's spouse at the time of DEBRA's death. V: ADDITIONS S (A) General Provisions Regarding Additions. The Senior or any other Person may add property to any Trust (i) by lifetime transfers of additional property; (ii) by Will; (iii) by naming the Trustees as beneficiaries of one or more life insurance policies; or (iv) by any other means; provided that, except as otherwise provided in section (B), the Trustees, in their sole discretion, may decline to accept all or any portion of the additions, and may, in their sole discretion, accept conditional transfers or additions. If the Trustees agree to accept any additions, they need not retain any property in the form received The Trustees shall add any property that they accept to the Trust designated by the donor, or failing such designation, this property shall be allocated ratably to all Trusts then held under this Trust Agreement. (B) Pour-Over Additions From Related Trusts. (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of section (A), the Trustees of a Trust shall accept any property that is directed to be paid to such Trust under the provisions of the Settlor's Will or any Related Trust (a "Pour- Over"). (2) If a Pour-Over is directed to be made to a Trust under a particular Article of this Trust Agreement to or for the benefit of an issue of the Senior and more than one such Trust is then in existence, and the instrument or instructions governing the Pour-Over do not otherwise specify, such Pour-Over shall be allocated among such Trusts in such amounts or proportions, and to the exclusion of any one or more of them, as the Independent Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall direct. NYIA1470407YDWACNOI tDOC126504.0001 16 EFTA01127622 (3) For purposes of this section, a Pour-Over to a trust for the primary benefit of an issue of the Settlor under this Trust Agreement shall be given effect even though such Trust has yet to be created under this Trust Agreement or has previously terminated.. In that event, the Trustees shall accept such Pour-Over and administer it under the terms of this Trust Agreement as though such Trust had previously been created or had never previously terminated, as the case may be. (4) As used in this section, the term "Related Trust" means (i) a trust held under a trust agreement created by the Settlor during the Settlor's lifetime or under the Senior's Will, or (ii) a trust held under any successor instrument amending or restating one or more trusts described in clause (i). (C) Additions as Principal. All receipts of a Trust through Additions shall be characterized as principal for accounting purposes. For purposes of this Article, an "Addition" shall mean an addition (other than a Pour-Over) made to the Trust under Article II by an individual by a transfer during such individual's lifetime. VI: TRUSTEES' INVESTMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE POWERS (A) Overriding Limitation on Powers. The provisions of this Article are expressly subordinate to the oveniding provisions of Article VII. (B) General Powers. The Trustees shall have all powers and discretion conferred generally upon fiduciaries by EPTL § 11-1.1 and by other provisions of law.

NY I Al470407V1 W$12401W0O26504.003I 19 EFTA01127625 (15) To satisfy any disposition (other than a specific disposition) or effect any distribution of income or principal with any property not otherwise specifically disposed of, including an undivided interest in property, in kind or in cash or partly in each to any one or more beneficiaries, whether or not the same kind of property is distributed to other beneficiaries having comparable interests; (16) To credit receipts (including, but not limited to, gains from the sale or exchange of property) and to charge expenditures and other disbursements to or between income and principal in such amounts and proportions as the Trustees deem advisable, without regard to any prior allocation made at any time and notwithstanding any contrary provision of law;

to indemnify any lender or other party against any claim, loss, obligation, liability or expense of any nature in connection with any loan to, or other transaction a participant in which is (w) the Pledging Trust, (x) any trust described in clause (i), above, (y) a Beneficiary or (z) any Entity in which the Pledging Trust, any trust described in clause (i), above, or a Beneficiary has an interest; and to pledge any or all of the assets held in the Pledging Trust as security for any such indemnity, provided that only the Independent Trustees may participate in the exercise of this power and that, for purposes of this provision, a Person shall be deemed to be a Beneficiary of a trust only if the trustee of such trust may make current distributions to him or her; and (20) To engage on behalf of any Trust in any type of security, commodity or currency transaction (including, without limitation, short sales, NY I :1I470407.01WSKN0I !DOC-VS.504.000i 20 EFTA01127626 purchases on margin and over-the-counter and private transactions);

(C) Reliance on Statement of Financial Resources. If the Trustees and/or Independent Trustees of a Trust consider the financial resources of a beneficiary in exercising their power to determine that distributions should be made from such Trust to or for the benefit of such individual, then they may, without further investigation, rely upon any written statement made by such individual, or on such individual's behalf, as to the nature and extent of such individual's financial resources. (D) Exoneration of Third Parties. (1) No Person dealing with the Trustees shall be bound to see to the application or disposition of cash or other property transferred to them or to inquire into the authority for or propriety of any action by the Trustees. (2) Every Person contracting or otherwise dealing with the Trustees of a Trust shall look only to the funds and property of such Trust for payment under such contract or payment of any money that may become due or payable under any obligation arising under this Trust Agreement, in whole or in part, and the Trustees shall not be individually liable therefor even though the Trustees did not exempt themselves from individual liability when entering into any contract, obligation or transaction in connection with or growing out of such Trust. (E) Consolidation of Trust Property. The Trustees shall not be required to segregate physically the property of multiple Trusts, but may, in their discretion, maintain any part or all of the trust property of any two or more Trusts in one or more consolidated funds, in NY 1:114704071MVSKNOI LD0026504.0001 21 EFTA01127627 which event the division of each such consolidated fund into the various shares or parts comprising it need be made only on the Trustees' books of account. (F) Combination and Division of Trusts. (1) The Trustees may combine any two or more Trusts having identical terms and identical beneficiaries and administer the combined Trusts as a single Trust. (2) The Trustees may divide any Trust into two or more separate Trusts of equal or unequal size, each having terms identical to the terms of the original Trust. (3) If, pursuant to any authority granted in this Trust Agreement, the Trustees direct that (a) any Trust shall be divided into two or more separate Trusts or (b) any share of any Trust shall be held in more than one Trust, then the Trustees shall determine which property then allocated to or held in such Trust or share shall be allocated to each such separate Trust. (G) Powers Relating to Closely Held Business and Investment Interests. (1) As to each and any Entity, public or private, in which the Trustees, as such, hold or acquire, directly or indirectly, an equity interest, if the fair market value of such interest of the Trustees when aggregated with the fair market value of the equity interests in such Entity of the trustees of all other trusts of which the Settlor or DEBRA is the senior, exceeds one percent (1%) of the fair market value of such Entity, such Entity being hereinafter referred to as "the Closely Held Entity," the Trustees are hereby authorized to retain the shares thereof or interest therein for as long as they deem to be in the best interests of any Trust, regardless of the fact that such shares or interest might produce no income, regardless of any duty to diversify investments, and notwithstanding any other fiduciary obligation which might require them to dispose of such shares or interest. NY11:11470407VWSKNOI !. D0026504-0001 22 EFTA01127628 (2) With respect to each and every Closely Held Entity, the Trustees of any Trust are authorized, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise their rights and powers as holders of the shams or other interests in such Closely Held Entity to effect its continued operation, or the sale or other disposition of its assets or business, or, in their sole discretion, to sell, exchange, offer for redemption, or otherwise dispose of the shares of or other interests in the Closely Held Entity owned by any Trust, or to effect the liquidation or dissolution of the Closely Held Entity, at such time or times and upon such terms and conditions as the Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall determine. (3) The Trustees may participate in the management of any Closely Held Entity to the extent that their interest therein permits. They are expressly authorized (without limiting the generality of the foregoing), in their sole discretion, to select, vote for and remove directors of the Closely Held Entity (if the Closely Held Entity is a corporation); to name or change officers, managing personnel and/or operating personnel; to reduce, expand, limit or otherwise change the Closely Held Entity's trade or business, or any property or investment that it holds; to require surety bonds of employees and/or officers and specify the amount of such bonds and the bonding company; to employ accountants or engineers to appraise or evaluate the Closely Held Entity's business or assets; to employ investment or legal counsel, including any firm with which a Trustee may be affiliated; to charge the costs of such services against the interest in the Closely Held Entity owned by any Trust, or to require the Closely Held Entity to pay such costs; to contribute additional working capital or to subscribe to additional stock as they may see fit; and to take all steps and perform all acts which they shall deem necessary or advisable in connection therewith. NY I A1470407101WS13401 !DOC-V65O4.0001 23 EFTA01127629 (4) Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsection, the Trustees shall not be bound or required to take part in the management of any Closely Held Entity. They may delegate their managerial authority (including any authority to determine the payment or non-payment of dividends or other distributions) to others, whether by means of employment agreements or other arrangements, and they may enter into voting trusts and grant irrevocable proxies, as they deem advisable. In the event of such delegation, the Trustees shall not be liable for any act or omission by the directors or other Persons charged with such management, unless they know or have reason to know of any act of dishonesty, misappropriation or misapplication of moneys or other property on the part of such directors or other Persons. No Person having an interest hereunder shall be entitled in any way to compel, control or forbid the exercise in any particular manner of any voting or other right with regard to the Closely Held Entity which may at any time be vested in the Trustees. (5) Any one or more of the Trustees may act as officer, partner, director, manager or senior employee of the Closely Held Entity (each such capacity being hereinafter referred to as a "Management Position"), and the Trustees are specifically authorized to participate in the election or appointment of any Person or Persons, including themselves (whether individually and/or as Trustees), to any Management Position. Any Trustee who serves in a Management Position shall be entitled to receive compensation for such services notwithstanding that the Trustees may themselves (whether individually and/or as Trustees) be in a position to determine, or control the determination of, the amount of such compensation, and no such Person shall be required to furnish any bond in connection with any such service in a Management Position. NY' Al47040,01WSKN0I !.OOO 6504.0001 24 EFTA01127630 r. (6) The Settlor is aware that conflicts of interest may arise by reason of a Trustee's serving as such while simultaneously serving in a Management Position, or by reason of a Trustee's owning or purchasing an interest in the Closely Held Entity in his, her or its own right, and the Settlor intends that the Trustees shall, in all respects, be free to exercise the powers and discretion herein conferred as fully and unrestrictedly as if there were no conflicting interests. Consequently, the Trustees are hereby expressly exempted from the adverse operation of any rule of law which might otherwise apply to them in the performance of their fiduciary duties solely by reason of self-dealing or other conflict of interest ("conflict of interest rules"). In particular, the Trustees are authorized to enter into any transaction with any Closely Held Entity that any Trust could enter into with any unrelated third Person, without regard to any conflict of interest rule. The transactions described in the preceding sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) the purchase of property from, sale of property to or exchange of property with any Closely Held Entity and (ii) the borrowing of money or other property from or lending of money or other property to any Closely Held Entity. The Trustees may employ, on behalf of any Trust, agents, accountants, custodians, experts and legal or investment counsel who may also perform comparable services for the Closely Held Entity or for any one or more of the Trustees individually. In addition, any Trustee may purchase, sell, exchange or otherwise deal in or dispose of shares of or interests in the Closely Held Entity for his, her or its own account without regard to any conflict of interest rule, or any other rule that might otherwise require such Trustee to first offer the opportunity to enter into that transaction to any Trust of which he, she or it is a Trustee. (7) To the greatest extent permitted by law, no Trustee holding a Management Position in a Closely Held Entity shall be required to account for the acts and proceedings of NY 1 Al47040701WSKNOI !DOC126504.0001 25 EFTA01127631 such Closely Held Entity to any Person at any time interested in any Trust, regardless of whether the interest of such Trust in such Closely Held Entity, alone or in conjunction with other trusts of which such Trustee is a trustee, is a controlling interest. (8) For purposes of this section, (i) the Trustees will be deemed to hold an interest in an Entity if they hold, as such, a direct or an indirect interest in such Entity, and (ii) the Trustees will be deemed to hold an indirect interest in an Entity if they hold, as such, a direct interest in another Entity that owns a direct or indirect interest in such Entity. The extent of such indirect interest shall be measured by the multiplication of percentage interests through a chain of Entities. For example, if the Trustees hold a direct interest in an Entity ("Entity A") the fair market value of which constitutes fifty percent (50%) of the fair market value of Entity A and Entity A owns a direct interest in another Entity ("Entity B") the fair market value of which constitutes thirty percent (30%) of the fair market value of Entity B, such Trustees would be deemed to hold an indirect interest in Entity B the fair market value of which constitutes fifteen percent (15%) of the fair market value of Entity B. (H) Special Investments and Risk. The Trustees shall have broad latitude to make and retain investments in real and personal property that are not ordinarily considered suitable for fiduciaries under the usual fiduciary investment standards and that may be speculative and involve unusual risks, including, without limitation, interests in any kind of business venture or enterprise, real estate development, minerals, commodities, and natural resources. The Trustees, at any time or from time to time as they deem advisable, in their sole discretion, may initiate such investments on behalf of any Trust, even though there may be a risk of loss to such Trust by reason thereof. WIA14-440710IWSK740ILDOC126504.0001 26 EFTA01127632 Any investment may (notwithstanding any law or rule of law making trustees' powers non-delegable or any other law) take the form of the securities of a corporation, a general or limited partnership interest, membership in a limited liability company, an interest in a joint venture, a future interest in property, shares of beneficial interest in a business trust, or any other form of investment, direct or indirect, even though there may be a limited market, or, in practice, no effective market, for the disposition of such investment. To this end, the Settlor authorizes the Trustees of any Trust to enter into any such investments with the trustees of any other trust. (I) Term and Remainder Interests. The Trustees may make investments in the form of term interests in property (the right to possess or to receive income from property for a designated number of years or for the life of a designated individual) or in the form of remainder interests in property (the right to receive property after the expiration of a preceding interest in such property). (J) Advisors; Delegation. The Trustees are specifically authorized to rely on the advice of investment counsel or other appropriate advisors (including any firm with which any Trustee may be affiliated). They may, pursuant to a contract or contracts with an investment counsel or other appropriate advisor, delegate all or a portion of their investment powers to such investment counsel or other appropriate advisor (notwithstanding any law or rule of law making trustees' powers non-delegable or any other law), and, if they do so, they shall not be liable for losses incurred by reason of such delegation or incurred in acting or refraining from acting in reliance on the advice of such investment counsel or other appropriate advisor except for their own failure to exercise care, skill and caution in (i) selecting and periodically reviewing such investment counsel or other appropriate advisor, (ii) establishing the scope and terms of the delegation and (iii) controlling the overall cost by reason of the delegation. NY 1 A147040710 IWSKNOI !D0026504.0001 27 EFTA01127633 (K) Residential Property and Tangible Personal Property. (1) The powers conferred by this section are in addition to, and not in limitation of, the powers set forth in the preceding provisions of this Article. (2) The Trustees of any Trust may retain or purchase any residential property, including residential property that is occupied or intended for occupancy by any one or more of the beneficiaries of such Trust, and may develop or make improvements in or repairs to any residential property owned by such Trust including residential property that is occupied or intended for occupancy by any one or more of the beneficiaries of such Trust. In addition, the • Trustees of such Trust shall permit any one or more of the beneficiaries of such Trust to occupy any residential property owned by the Trust upon such terms and conditions (as to the payment of rent, repairs or otherwise) as the Independent Trustees of such Trust deem appropriate. (3) The Trustees of any Trust may retain or purchase any item of tangible personal property, including tangible personal property for the use of any one or more of the beneficiaries of such Trust, and shall permit any one or more of such beneficiaries to use any such item of tangible personal property upon such terms and conditions (including any relating to insurance and preservation) as the Independent Trustees of such Trust deem appropriate. (4) For purposes of this section, the beneficiaries of a Trust at any particular time shall include only those Persons to whom current distributions from such Trust may be made, and the term "residential property" shall include real property (together with buildings, fixtures, and improvements thereon), interests in condominium units (including common areas), and cooperative apartments (together with proprietary leases and shares of stock relating thereto). NY 11147040MIWS13401 EDOCV.6504,0001 28 EFTA01127634 (L) Sailor's Power to Reacquire Trust Assets. The Senior at any time or from time to time may acquire or reacquire any portion of the Trust Fund of the Trust under Article II by substituting therefor other property of an equivalent value, valued on the date of substitution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, the Senior may exercise this power without the consent of the Trustees. Although this power is exercisable by the Settlor in a non-fiduciary capacity without the consent of any of the Trustees, the Trustees, if they believe that the property the Senior seeks to substitute for trust property is not in fact property of equivalent value, shall seek a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction to assure that the equivalent value requirement of this section is satisfied. The Senior, at any time, may release this power. Any release under this section shall be irrevocable and shall be made by instrument in writing signed by the Senior and delivered to each Trustee. (M) Settler's Power to Borrow. The Settlor at any time or from time to time may borrow any portion of the Trust Fund of the Trust under Article H. If the Senior borrows the Trust Fund, or any portion thereof, the Independent Trustees shall determine the rate of interest to be charged, which rate shall not be less than a reasonable market rate of interest at the time the loan is made, and shall determine whether or not the loan should be secured. The Settlor, at any time, may release this power to borrow. Any release under this section shall be irrevocable and shall be made by instrument in writing signed by the Senior and delivered to each Trustee. (N) Self-Dealing. The Senior authorizes financial transactions, both direct and indirect, between the Trust held under Article II and any Trustee of such Trust with the consent of DEBRA if DEBRA is then competent, and between a Trust held under Article Di and any Trustee of such Trust with the consent of the Primary Beneficiary of such Trust but only if NY I AlOGIONNWSKNONDOCQ6504.0001 29 EFTA01127635 the Primary Beneficiary is competent and is at least twenty-five (25) years of age (including, without limitation, purchases, sales and leases of property, loans, agreements, and employment and compensation for services), notwithstanding any rule of law relating to self-dealing, provided only that the interested Trustee act in good faith and that the consideration paid by the Trust or by the Trustee be reasonable. VII• RESTRICTIONS ON POWERS Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Trust Agreement: (A) Limitation on Senior's Powers. No power granted to the Senior under any provision of this Trust Agreement shall be exercisable by the Settlor if the possession of such power would result in the treatment of the Senior's transfer of any property to the Trustees as incomplete in whole or in part for gift tax purposes or would cause any property so transferred to be included in the Senior's gross estate for federal estate tax purposes. If the Senior is serving as a Trustee, the Settlor may not participate in the exercise of any Trustee power under Article 11(B). (B) Satisfaction of Legal Obligations. As to any Trust, neither the principal nor the income of such Trust may be used to satisfy an enforceable legal obligation of any individual other than an individual to whom, or for whose benefit, current distributions of the Trust Fund of such Trust may be made. (C) Distributions to or for the Benefit of Trustees. (1) No Trustee shall participate in a decision to distribute property for his or her benefit or to himself or herself in any capacity whatsoever (other than distributions that are mandatory under this Trust Agreement and distributions for his or her health, education, support and maintenance), including, but not NY 1:U47040701WSKNOI WOO2450.O001 30 EFTA01127636 limited to, the capacity as a custodian for the benefit of his or her child under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act of any jurisdiction. (2) No Trustee shall participate in a decision to use the property of any Trust in such a manner as to discharge any obligation of such Trustee, including, without limitation, any obligation of support. (D) Modifications. No Trustee shall participate in a decision to modify the terms of any Trust in such manner as would increase or decrease his or her powers over or interests in such Trust. No Trustee shall participate in a decision to modify the terms of any Trust in such manner as would or might increase his, her or its compensation from such Trust. (E) Change of Law. No Trustee shall participate in a decision to remove all or part of the assets or change the situs of administration of any Trust from one jurisdiction to another jurisdiction, or to elect that the law of such other jurisdiction shall govern such Trust or its administration if such removal, change of situs or election would have the effect of altering any beneficial interest under this Trust Agreement. (F) Powers of Appointment. No holder of any power of appointment (other than a power expressly exercisable in favor of the holder, the holder's estate, the holder's creditors or the creditors of the holder's estate) shall exercise such power (i) in favor of himself or herself, his or her estate, his or her creditors, or the creditors of his or her -estate, (ii) in such manner as to discharge any obligation of such Person, including, without limitation, any obligation of support or (iii) in exchange for any consideration in money or money's worth, including, but not limited to, an agreement by another Person to exercise a power of appointment in the holder's favor. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the holder of a power of appointment over the property in a Trust may exercise that power in favor of another trust if (a) NY MI47040710 I WSICN0RDOO26504,0001 31 EFTA01127637 the holder's interest in such trust is no greater than his or her interest in such Trust and (b) the holder's powers over such trust are no greater than his or her powers over such Trust. No holder of any power of appointment shall exercise such power to create a trust or to appoint property to a trust if the duration of such trust could, by its terms, extend beyond the Perpetuities Date. (G) Limitation on DEBRA'S Powers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Trust Agreement, DEBRA shall not exercise any powers granted to DEBRA under the Trust Agreement either in DEBRA'S individual capacity or in DEBRA's capacity as Trustee, other than investment and administrative powers given to Trustees under Article VI and the withdrawal power given to DEBRA under Article V, for a period of thirty (30) days after the Settlor makes a transfer to the Trust held under Article II. Power to Remove Trustees. No Person shall exercise his or her power to remove a Trustee of any Trust because of such Trustee's exercise or failure to exercise a power which, if held by the Person exercising the removal power, would result in any portion of the Trust Fund of such Trust being included in such Person's gross estate for federal estate tax purposes. VIII: IRREVOCABILITY; MODIFICATION (A) Irrevocable by Senior. This Trust Agreement and the Trusts may not be altered, amended, revoked or terminated by the Settlor, in whole or in part. (B) Scope of Independent Trustees' Modification Power. (1) At any time or from time to time during a Modification Period, the Independent Trustees, by unanimous consent of all of the Independent Trustees, may modify the terms of this Trust Agreement and any of the Trusts, provided, however, that no modification shall violate any of the following prohibitions: NY I A147040701WSKNOI !.00O2650'.0001 32 EFTA01127638 (a) No portion of the Trust Fund of any Trust may be paid to or applied for the benefit of any individual other than a Beneficiary at any time while any Beneficiary is living, except as provided in paragraph (c) of this subsection. (b) No portion of the Trust Fund of any Trust may be paid to or applied for the benefit of any entity other than a Permitted Entity and other than a Qualified Charitable Organization at any time while any Beneficiary is living.

(d) Neither the Senior nor any Beneficiary may ever be authorized to remove a Trustee except as provided under the provisions of Article X, which may not be amended except to further restrict or eliminate such authority. (e) The date upon which any Trust terminates may not be later than the Perpetuities Date. NY A1470407‘01WSKNOI !-DOO26504.0001 33 EFTA01127639 (f) The definitions of the terms "Beneficiary," "Beneficiaries," "Permitted Entity," 'Permitted Trust," "Senior's Children," "Senior's issue," "issue" and "spouse" may not be changed. For purposes of this provision, the provisions of Article IV(C) shall be deemed to be part of the definition of "issue." (g) The definition of the term "Perpetuities Date" may not be modified with respect to any particular Trust if the power to effect such modification would itself violate the rule against perpetuities applicable to such Trust at the time of such modification and may not be modified in any manner that would violate the rule against perpetuities applicable to such Trust at the time of such modification. (h) The definition of the terms "Independent Trustees" and "Related Person" may not be modified except to add to the class of Trustees who are not Independent Trustees.

(2) Notwithstanding subsection (1), no modification power may be exercisable by the Independent Trustees if, or to the extent that, the possession of such power would result in the treatment of any of the Settlor's transfers to the Trustees as incomplete for federal gift tax purposes or would cause any property so transferred to be included in the Senior's gross estate for federal estate tax purposes. (C) Exercise of Modification Power. Any modification authorized by this Article (i) shall be in writing, (ii) shall be signed and acknowledged by all of the Independent NY I Al470407•01WSKN0I LDOC126504.0001 34 EFTA01127640 Trustees, (iii) shall state the date upon which it is to become effective, which date shall not be earlier than thirty (30) days after the date a copy of such writing has been delivered to the Senior or to DEBRA if the Settlor is not living or is under a disability, and (iv) shall be filed with the trust records maintained by the Trustees. Any modification may be revoked by unanimous consent of all of the Independent Trustees at any time prior to its effective date but only during a Modification Period, and, unless such modification specifically provides that it is to be irrevocable, at any time after its effective date during a Modification Period. Revocation of a modification (i) shall be in writing, (ii) shall be signed and acknowledged by all of the Independent Trustees then serving (whether or not they are the ones who made the modification), (iii) shall state the date upon which it is to become effective, which date shall not be earlier than the date a copy of such writing has been delivered to the Senior or to DEBRA if the Settlor is not living or is under a disability, and (iv) shall be filed with the trust records maintained by the Trustees. A copy of each modification and revocation of modification shall be delivered to each Trustee who is not an Independent Trustee. (D) Release or Suspension of Modification Power. Even though the Independent Trustees' power of modification under this Article is a fiduciary power, the Independent Trustees may, at any time, completely (or partially) release the power or they may suspend it for a specific period of time. Any such release or suspension (i) shall be effected in the same manner as a revocation of a modification, as provided in section (C), (ii) shall be irrevocable, and (iii) shall bind all Trustees serving at any time. (E) Special Rule Regarding Amendments to Article 11(A). Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, if both the Senior and DEBRA are either deceased or under a disability, the Independent Trustees shall have the power to amend the Trust NY I Al 47010T0 IIVSKN0I LC0035504.000I 35 EFTA01127641 Agreement to eliminate the provision regarding mandatory distributions to the Senior pursuant to section (A) of Article II, and may do so without giving prior written notice to any Person.

The authority to modify pursuant to this section may not be exercised in any manner that would alter any beneficial interest in any Trust (except that a modification of Article IV(F) that might be deemed to be an alteration of a beneficial interest may nevertheless be made) or that would disqualify any Trust for an income or transfer tax deduction or exclusion for which it would otherwise qualify. Any modification authorized by this section: (1) shall be in writing signed and acknowledged by all of the Trustees (other than the Senior) or Independent Trustees, as the case may be, of the Trust to which such modification relates, (ii) shall state the time at which or the event upon which the modification is to be effective and (iii) shall be filed with the trust records maintained by the Trustees.

(D) Service Upon Persons Under Disability. The Senior directs that in any proceeding relating to any Trust, service upon any "person under disability" as defined in SCPA NY I AI 470407.01W5KN0I I.DO026504.0001 37 EFTA01127643 § 103, shall not be necessary when another Person who is a party to the proceeding has the same interest, whether concurrent or successive, as the person under disability.
