ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN; SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

The Plan shall be administered by the Board or the Committee. The term “Committee” shall, for all purposes of the Plan, be deemed to refer to the Board if the Board is administering the Plan.

The Committee shall adopt such rules and regulations as it shall deem appropriate concerning the holding of meetings and the administration of the Plan. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum and the actions of the entire Committee present at a meeting, or actions approved in writing by the entire Committee, shall be the actions of the Committee.

Except as may otherwise be expressly reserved to the Board as provided herein, and with respect to any Award, except as may otherwise be provided in the Award Agreement evidencing such Award or an employment or consulting agreement between the Participant and Company, the Committee shall have all powers with respect to the administration of the Plan, including the authority to:

(a) determine eligibility and the particular persons or classes of persons who will receive Awards;

(b) grant Awards to eligible persons or eligible classes of persons, determine the price and number of securities to be offered or awarded to any of such persons, determine the other specific terms and conditions of Awards consistent with the express limits of the Plan, establish the installments (if any) in which such Awards will become exercisable or will vest and the respective consequences thereof (or determine that no delayed exercisability or vesting is required), and establish the events of termination or reversion of such Awards;

7

(c) approve the forms of Award Agreements, which need not be identical either as to type of Award or among Participants;

(d) construe and interpret the provisions of the Plan and any Award Agreement or other agreement defining the rights and obligations of the Company and Participants under the Plan, make factual determinations with respect to the administration of the Plan, further define the terms used in the Plan, and prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of the Plan;

(e) cancel, modify, or waive the Company’s rights with respect to, or modify, discontinue, suspend, or terminate any or all outstanding Awards held by Participants, subject to any required consent under Article XIII;

(g) make all other determinations and take such other action as contemplated by this Plan or as may be necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan and the effectuation of its purposes.

All decisions of the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, shall be reasonable and made in good faith and shall be conclusive and binding on all Participants in the Plan.

Subject to the Committee’s approval, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer may recommend terms and conditions of Awards to the Committee, but shall not have the authority to approve any Awards.

In the event the Company becomes a “publicly-held corporation” as defined in Code §162(m)(2), the Company may establish a committee of outside directors meeting the requirements of Code §162(m)(2) to (i) approve Awards that might reasonably be anticipated to result in the payment of employee remuneration that would otherwise exceed the limit on employee remuneration deductible for income tax purposes by the Company pursuant to Code §162(m); and (ii) administer the Plan. In such event, the powers reserved to the Committee in the Plan shall be exercised by such compensation committee. In addition, Awards under the Plan may be granted upon satisfaction of the conditions to such grants provided pursuant to Code §162(m) and any Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

Subject to the provisions of Article X (relating to adjustments upon changes in capital structure and other corporate transactions), the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan shall not exceed the Reserved Shares. Shares that are subject to or underlie Options granted under the Plan that expire or for any reason are canceled or terminated without having been exercised (or Shares subject to or underlying the unexercised

portion of any Options, in the case of Options that were partially exercised at the time of their expiration, cancellation or termination), as well as Shares that are subject to Share Awards made under the Plan that are not actually purchased pursuant to such Share Awards and Shares that are subject to Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units that are forfeited, will again, except to the extent prohibited by law or applicable listing or regulatory requirements, be available for subsequent Award grants under the Plan.

ARTICLE IV

ELIGIBILITY

Awards may be granted under the Plan only to persons who are employees or directors of, or consultants to, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Asset Management Company on the date of the grant. Each such person to whom an Award is granted under the Plan is referred to herein as a “Participant.”

ARTICLE V

SHARE OPTIONS

Options may be granted under the Plan at any time and from time to time on or prior to the Termination Date. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be designated as an NSO and shall be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to NSOs set forth in the Plan. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement incorporating the terms and provisions of the Plan that shall be executed by the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall specify the number of Shares for which such Option shall be exercisable, the Option Price (as defined in Section 5.4 below) for such Shares and the other terms and conditions of the Option.

The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine and set forth such determination in the Award Agreement whether and to what extent any Options are subject to vesting based upon the Participant’s continued service to, or the Participant’s performance of duties for, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Asset Management Company, or upon any other basis.

Except as may be otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, the date of grant of an Option under this Plan shall be the date as of which the Committee approves the grant.

9

The Option Price shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. In no event, however, may the Committee determine an Option Price that is less than the Fair Market Value of the Share on the date of grant.

Each Option granted under the Plan, to the extent not previously exercised, shall automatically terminate and shall become null and void and be of no further force or effect upon such date or dates as are set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, consistent with the terms of the Plan.

The aggregate Option Price shall be paid in cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account of the Company designated by the Committee or by delivery of a personal or certified check payable to the Company); provided that the Committee may, in its sole discretion, specify one or more of the following other forms of payment which may be used by a Participant (but only to the extent permitted by applicable law) upon exercise of his or her Option:

(a) by surrender of Shares (by delivery of such shares or by attestation) with a Fair Market Value equal to the Option Price which were obtained by the Participant in the public market (but, subject in any case, to the applicable limitations of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act);

(b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, in compliance with any cashless exercise program authorized by the Board or the Committee for use in connection with the Plan at the time of such exercise (but, subject in any case, to the applicable limitations of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act); or

(c) a combination of the methods set forth in this Section 5.6.

A Participant (or other person, as provided in Section 11.2) may exercise an Option (for the Shares represented thereby) granted under the Plan in whole or in part (but for the purchase of whole Shares only), as provided in the Award Agreement evidencing his or her Option, by delivering a written notice (the “Notice”) to the Secretary of the Company. The Notice shall state:

(a) that the Participant elects to exercise the Option;

(b) the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised (the “Option Shares”);

10

(c) the method of payment for the Option Shares (which method must be available to the Participant under the terms of his or her Award Agreement);

(d) the date upon which the Participant desires to consummate the purchase of the Option Shares (which date must be prior to the termination of such Option); and

(e) any additional provisions consistent with the Plan as the Committee may from time to time require.

The exercise date of an Option shall be the date on which the Company receives the Notice from the Participant and, if applicable, payment of the aggregate Option Price for such Shares. Such Notice shall also contain, and any such exercise shall be contingent upon, to the extent such Participant is not then a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (and either of such Agreements remains in effect on such date), an executed Adoption Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Board pursuant to which the Participant agrees to become a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Award Agreement, an Option may only be exercised in an amount proportionate (determined with reference to the total number of Shares originally subject to the Award as may be adjusted pursuant to Article X) to the extent the Investors have then funded the Total Commitment relative to the aggregate Total Commitment.

The Company shall issue share certificates in the name of the Participant (or other person exercising the applicable Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.2), representing the Shares purchased upon exercise of the Option as soon as practicable after receipt of the Notice and, if applicable, payment of the aggregate Option Price for such Shares; provided that the Company, in its sole discretion, may elect not to issue any fractional Shares upon the exercise of an Option (determining the fractional Shares after aggregating all Shares issuable to a single holder as a result of an exercise of an Option for more than one Share) and, in lieu of issuing such fractional Shares, shall pay the Participant the Fair Market Value thereof as determined by the Board in good faith. Neither the Participant nor any person exercising an Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.2 shall have any privileges as a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Shares issuable upon exercise of an Option granted under the Plan until the date of issuance of share certificates representing such Shares pursuant to this Section 5.8.

ARTICLE VI

SHARE AWARDS

Share Awards may be granted under the Plan at any time and from time to time on or prior to the Termination Date. Each Share Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall be executed by the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall specify the terms and conditions of the Share Award, including without limitation the number of Shares covered by the Share Award, the Purchase Price (as defined in Section 6.2 below), if any, for such Shares and the deadline for the purchase of such Shares.

The price (the “Purchase Price”), if any, at which each Share covered by the Share Award may be purchased upon exercise of a Share Award shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. The Company will not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing Shares purchased under this Article VI unless and until it receives full payment of the aggregate Purchase Price therefor and all other conditions to the purchase, as reasonably determined by the Committee, have been satisfied. The Purchase Price of any Shares subject to a Share Award must be paid in full at the time of the purchase.

Each Share Award shall be contingent upon, to the extent such Participant is not then a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (and either of such Agreements remains in effect on such date), an executed Adoption Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Board pursuant to which the Participant agrees to become a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable. In addition, to the extent determined applicable by the Committee, each Share Award shall be contingent upon the relevant Participant executing a Participant Subscription Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Board.

Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Award Agreement referred to in Section 7.3(d), and except as otherwise permitted under the Shareholders Agreement, during the restricted period, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber unvested Restricted Shares. Within these limits, the Committee may provide for the lapse of restrictions based upon period of service in installments or otherwise and may accelerate or waive, in whole or in part, restrictions based upon period of service, performance or other criteria as the Committee may determine.

(b) Except as provided in the Award Agreement, the Participant shall not have, with respect to the Restricted Shares, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company holding the class or series of Shares that is the subject of the Restricted Shares, including, if applicable, the right to vote the Shares and the right to receive any cash dividends, unless and until such Restricted Shares have vested in accordance with their terms and the respective terms of the related Award Agreement, the Shareholders Agreement and the Bye-Laws.

(d) Each Award of Restricted Shares shall be confirmed by, and be subject to, the terms of an Award Agreement.

(e) Each Award of Restricted Shares shall be contingent upon, to the extent such Participant is not then a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (and either of such Agreements remains in effect on such date), an executed Adoption Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Board pursuant to which the Participant agrees to become a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable.

In the event of an extraordinary share dividend, share split, reverse share split, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company, an extraordinary cash dividend, separation, spinoff or a reorganization (each, an “Adjustment Event”), then the Committee or the Board shall make substitutions or adjustments to: (A) the aggregate number and kind of Shares or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (B) the number and kind of Shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards; (C) performance metrics and targets underlying outstanding Awards; and (D) the Option Price of outstanding Options, in each case, to the extent (if any) necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives by this Plan and the then-outstanding Awards. In the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares, share rights offering, liquidation, disaffiliation, or similar event affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Corporate Transaction”), then the Committee or the Board shall make substitutions or adjustments to: (w) the aggregate number and kind of Shares or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (x) the number and kind of Shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards; (y) performance metrics and targets underlying outstanding Awards; and (z) the Option Price of outstanding Options, in each case, to the extent (if any) necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives by this Plan and the then-outstanding Awards. In the case of Corporate Transactions, such adjustments may include, without limitation, (1) the cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for payments of cash, property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion (it being understood that in the case of a Corporate Transaction with respect to which shareholders of Shares receive consideration other than publicly traded equity securities of the ultimate surviving entity, any such determination by the Committee that the value of an Option shall for this purpose be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each Share pursuant to such Corporate Transaction over the Option Price of such Option shall conclusively be deemed valid); and (2) the substitution of other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the Shares subject to outstanding Awards.

The following rules shall apply in connection with Section 10.1 above:

(a) No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends (except as described in Section 10.1) or any new issuance of securities by the Company (including the issuance of Excluded Securities) for consideration (except in connection with a Corporate Transaction).

15

(b) The determination as to whether any adjustment referred to in Section 10.1 is needed and the extent and nature of any such adjustment shall be made by the Committee or the Board in its discretion and shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Persons holding any Awards granted under the Plan.

If a Sale of the Company occurs, the parties to the Sale of the Company may agree that any Option, Shares, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units or other Award outstanding under the Plan immediately prior to the consummation of the Sale of the Company shall, at the effective time of the Sale of the Company, be assumed and continued on substantially the same vesting and other terms and conditions as a like Award with respect to shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring company (or a parent company). If an Option is assumed, the number of shares and exercise or base price per share covered by the assumed Award will be adjusted in accordance with the principles set forth in Sections 1.424-1(a)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) of the Treasury Regulations. If a Restricted Share, Restricted Share Unit or other Award is assumed, the number of shares covered by the assumed Award will be a whole number that reflects the exchange ratio or value of the transaction consideration applicable with respect to holders of Shares in connection with the Sale of the Company.

Any Award outstanding under the Plan immediately prior the consummation of a Sale of the Company that is not assumed pursuant to the preceding section will be terminated at the effective time of the Sale of the Company. If the terminated Award is an Option, then the holder of such Option will be entitled to receive at the effective time of the Sale of the Company a single sum payment equal to the excess, if any, of the transaction value of the Shares that are then covered by the Award over the aggregate Option Price for such Options, only to the extent that such Option was vested on the date of the Sale of the Company. No consideration will be payable in respect of the termination of an Option with a Option Price that is not more than the transaction value per Share or with regard to any Option that is unvested on the date of the Sale of the Company. The amount payable with respect to the termination of an outstanding Option pursuant to this section will be paid in cash, unless the parties to the Sale of the Company agree that some or all of such amount will be payable in the form of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring company (or a parent company).

ARTICLE XI

RESTRICTIONS ON AWARDS

No Awards shall be granted under the Plan, and no Shares shall be issued and delivered pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, unless and until the Company and/or the Participant shall have complied with all applicable Federal, state or foreign registration, listing and/or qualification requirements and all other requirements of law or of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction.

16

The Committee in its discretion may, as a condition to the delivery of any Shares pursuant to any Award granted under the Plan, require the applicable Participant (i) to represent in writing that the Shares received pursuant to such Award are being acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution and (ii) to make such other representations and warranties as are deemed reasonably appropriate by the Committee. Share certificates representing Shares acquired under the Plan that have not been registered under the Securities Act shall, if required by the Committee, bear such legends as may be required by the Shareholders Agreement and the applicable Award Agreement.

No Award granted under this Plan shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by the Participant, except by designation of a beneficiary, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement. An Award may be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant, unless the Participant becomes subject to a Disability. If a Participant dies or becomes subject to a Disability, his Options shall thereafter be exercisable, during the period specified in the applicable Award Agreement (as the case may be), by his designated beneficiary or if no beneficiary has been designated in writing, by his executors or administrators to the full extent (but only to such extent) to which such Options were exercisable by the Participant at the time of (and after giving effect to any vesting that may occur in connection with) his death or Disability.

Before issuing any Shares under the Plan to any person who is not already a party to the Shareholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable, the Company shall obtain an executed Adoption Agreement from such person.

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor any action of the Board or the Committee shall be deemed to give an employee, director, consultant any right to be granted an Option to purchase Shares or to receive an Award under the Plan, except as may be evidenced by an Award Agreement duly executed on behalf of the Company, and then only to the extent of and on the terms and conditions expressly set forth in the Award Agreement. The Plan will be unfunded. The Company will not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of funds or assets to assure the payment of any Award.

Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to the continuation of his employment by or service with the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Asset Management Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, any such Subsidiary or the Asset Management Company, in its sole discretion (subject to the terms of any separate agreement to the contrary), at any time to terminate such employment or service or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Participant from the rate in existence at the time of the grant of an Award.

17

Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award Agreement will be construed to prevent the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Asset Management Company or any of their respective Affiliates from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Asset Management Company or any of their respective Affiliates to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No Participant or beneficiary of a Participant will have any claim against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, the Asset Management Company or any of their respective Affiliates as a result of any corporate action.

ARTICLE XII

TERM OF THE PLAN

This Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall terminate on the Termination Date. No Awards may be granted after the Termination Date. Any Award outstanding as of the Termination Date shall remain in effect and the terms of the Plan will apply until such Award terminates as provided in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement.

ARTICLE XIII

AMENDMENT OF PLAN

The Plan may be modified or amended in any respect, and at any time or from time to time, by the Board or by the Committee with the prior approval of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan may not be modified or amended as it pertains to any existing Award Agreement without the consent of an applicable Participant where such modification or amendment would materially impair the rights of such Participant, it being understood that the modification of Option Price, exercise period, purchase price, repurchase price or vesting terms shall be deemed to materially impair the rights of Participants, unless such modifications are made pursuant to Article X. In addition, no such amendment shall be made without the approval of the Company’s shareholders to the extent such approval is required by applicable law or regulation or the listing standards of the securities exchange, that is, at the applicable time, the principal market for the Shares.

ARTICLE XIV

CAPTIONS

The use of captions in the Plan is for convenience. The captions are not intended to provide substantive rights.

ARTICLE XV

WITHHOLDING TAXES

Upon any exercise or payment of any Award, the Company shall have the right at its option and in its sole discretion to (i) require the Participant to pay or provide for payment in cash of the amount of any taxes which the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Asset Management Company may be required to withhold with respect to such exercise or payment (provided that, to the extent permitted by the Company, any such Subsidiary or the Asset Management Company, as applicable, the Participant may elect to pay or provide such amount in Shares); (ii) deduct from any amount payable to the Participant in cash or securities in respect of the Award the amount of any taxes which the Company, any such Subsidiary or the Asset Management Company, as applicable, may be required to withhold with respect to such exercise or payment; or (iii) reduce the number of Shares to be delivered to the Participant in connection with such exercise or payment by the appropriate number of Shares, valued at their then Fair Market Value, to satisfy the minimum withholding obligation. In no event will the value of Shares withheld under clause (iii) above exceed the minimum amount of required withholding under applicable law.

ARTICLE XVI

SECTION 83(b) ELECTION

To the extent permitted by the Board or Committee, and unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, each recipient of Restricted Shares may, but is not obligated to, make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed currently with respect to such Award. The election permitted under this Article XVI shall comply in all respects with and shall be made within the period of time prescribed under Section 83(b) of the Code. Each Participant shall prepare such forms as are required to make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code. The Company shall have no liability to any grantee who fails to make a permitted Section 83(b) election in a timely manner. In addition, the Company shall have no liability and makes no representation regarding the advisability of making an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, or regarding the tax, financial and other consequences of Awards.

ARTICLE XVII

CODE SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE

It is the intent of the Company that the awards under this Plan and the Committee’s exercise of authority or discretion with respect thereto shall comply with and avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and the terms and conditions of the awards granted under this Plan shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) that are otherwise required to be made under the Plan or any Award Agreement to a

19

“specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of the Code) as a result of his or her termination of service shall be delayed for the first six (6) months following such termination of service and shall instead be paid as soon as administratively practicable following the end of such six-month period (or, if earlier, within 10 business days following the date of death of the specified employee).

ARTICLE XVIII

SECTION 16 COMPLIANCE

In the event that the Company becomes subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, it is intended that the Plan and any Award made to a Participant subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act will meet all of the requirements of Rule 16b-3. Accordingly, unless otherwise provided by the Committee, if any provisions of the Plan or any Award would disqualify the Plan or the Award, or would otherwise not comply with Rule 16b-3, such provision or Award will be construed or deemed amended to conform to Rule 16b-3.

ARTICLE XIX

OTHER PROVISIONS

Each Award granted under the Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

ARTICLE XX

NUMBER AND GENDER

With respect to words used in the Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, and vice versa, as the context requires.

ARTICLE XXI

MISCELLANEOUS

In the case of a grant of an Award to an employee or director of or consultant to any Subsidiary of the Company or the Asset Management Company, the Company may, if the Committee so directs, issue or transfer the Common Shares, if any, covered by the Award to the Subsidiary or the Asset Management Company, for such lawful consideration as the Committee may specify, upon the condition or understanding that the Subsidiary or the Asset Management Company will transfer the Common Shares to the employee, director or consultant in accordance with the terms of the Award specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. All Common Shares underlying Awards that are forfeited or canceled should revert to the Company.

20

The Committee may grant Awards to individuals who are eligible to participate in the plan who are foreign nationals, who are located outside the United States or who are not compensated from a payroll maintained in the United States, or who are otherwise subject to (or could cause the Company to be subject to) legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan, and, in furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, or subplans as may be necessary or advisable to comply with such legal or regulatory provisions.

All Awards, if and to the extent subject to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, may be subject to a claw back policy or other incentive compensation policy established from time to time by the Company to comply with such Act.

ARTICLE XXII

GOVERNING LAW

All questions concerning the construction, interpretation and validity of the Plan and the instruments evidencing the Awards granted hereunder shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the State of Delaware will control the interpretation and construction of this Plan, even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.
