In the event of a sale or change in control, Unit A holders have the right to recover their investment, plus a rate of return of 12.5% per year before Unit B holders are entitled to any value. If Arka Group, L.P is sold at a value higher than the Unit A investment amount plus the rate of return for each succeeding year, the remaining sales proceeds will be split based on the percentage of Unit A holders (87.4%) and the percentage of Unit B holders (12.6%) and allocated in accordance with the number of vested profits interest units held.
