14

Participating Noteholders at such time do not constitute Required Participating Noteholders.

(d)If it has not already terminated, the Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the Effective Date of the Plan.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) nothing herein requires Companies or their respective boards of directors to breach any fiduciary obligations they have under applicable law; (ii) the Companies and their boards of directors shall be entitled to consider any unsolicited offer or unsolicited proposal concerning an Alternative Transaction and engage in limited discussions with the counterparty advancing such unsolicited proposal for the sole purpose of determining whether such unsolicited proposal constitutes a bona fide proposal, provided that the Companies provide the Participating Noteholders with a copy of such unsolicited proposal within one Business Day of their receipt thereof; and (iii)  in the event the Companies, the Debtors, or their boards of directors reasonably determine, consistent with their fiduciary obligations and in consultation with their legal advisors, that the conditions to the Plan cannot be satisfied, or determine that an Alternative Transaction would maximize the value of their estates, they may terminate this Agreement without incurring any liability to any party under this Agreement.

(g)In addition to the Participating Noteholder Termination Events and the Company Termination Events, this Agreement shall be terminable immediately upon written agreement of the Company and the Participating Noteholders constituting the Required Participating Noteholders.

Section 11.No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto, and no other Person shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof.

Section 12.Entire Agreement.

15

Section 13.Amendment or Waiver.

(a)This Agreement may not be modified, altered, amended, waived, or supplemented except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Companies and the Required Participating Noteholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 13(a) and Section 14 may not be modified, altered, or amended except in writing signed by each of the Companies and each of the Participating Noteholders.

(b)Each of the Parties agrees to negotiate in good faith all amendments and modifications to this Agreement as reasonably necessary and appropriate to consummate the Plan. Such agreement shall not be deemed to prejudice or limit in any way any Party’s rights under Section 14 of this Agreement.

(c)No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or constitute a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver be deemed a continuing waiver.

Section 14.Withdrawal.

(a)A Participating Noteholder shall be entitled, upon three Business Days’ prior written notice to the other Parties, to withdraw its participation in this Agreement (a “Withdrawing Noteholder”) following the (i) amendment or modification of this Agreement or the Term Sheet or (ii) adoption of a provision in the Plan or the Plan Documents that is, in each case, inconsistent with this Agreement and material to such Withdrawing Noteholder.

(b)Upon the withdrawal of participation in this Agreement by such Withdrawing Noteholder in accordance with this Section 14, such Withdrawing Noteholder shall have no continuing liability or obligation to any other Party hereunder and no other Party hereunder shall have any continuing liability or obligation to such Withdrawing Noteholder hereunder; provided,  however, that no such withdrawal by a Withdrawing Noteholder shall relieve any Party hereto (including such Withdrawing Noteholder) from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the date of such withdrawal.

16

Section 15.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including all matters of construction, validity, and performance without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof except New York General Obligations Law Section 5-1401. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any state court or federal court located in New York County, New York in respect of any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing consent to New York jurisdiction, if the Bankruptcy Cases are commenced, each Party agrees that the Bankruptcy Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction of all matters arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.

Section 16.Remedies. Each Party recognizes and acknowledges that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other Parties to sustain damages for which such Parties would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and therefore each Party hereto agrees that, in the event of any such breach, such other Parties shall be entitled to a remedy of specific performance of such covenants and agreements, including, without limitation, the covenant and agreement to vote in favor of the Plan, and injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which such parties may be entitled, in law or in equity. For the avoidance of doubt, the waiver or non-exercise of (x) the Noteholder Termination Event set forth in Section 10(a)(xv) by the Required Participating Noteholders or (y) the Company Termination Event set forth in Section 10(c)(iv) shall not constitute a waiver of the breach underlying such Noteholder Termination Event or Company Termination Event, as applicable, unless expressly indicated by the non-breaching Party in writing.

Section 17.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different Parties in separate counterparts and by facsimile or PDF transmission, with the same effect as if all Parties had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be deemed an original, shall be construed together, and shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 18.No Waiver of Participation and Reservation of Rights. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and in any amendment among the Parties made in accordance herewith, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner, waive, limit, impair, or restrict the ability of each of the Parties to protect and preserve its rights, remedies, and interests, including, without limitation, its claims against any of the Parties (or their respective affiliates or subsidiaries) or its full participation in the Bankruptcy Cases. If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in the Plan are not consummated, or if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Parties fully reserve any and all rights.

17

Section 19.Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.

Section 20.Prior Negotiations. This Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof, but shall not supersede the Plan Documents.

Section 21.Several Not Joint. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the agreements, representations, and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement are several and not joint. Any breach of this Agreement by any Party shall not result in liability for any other non-breaching Party. Failure by a Party to perform its obligations under the Agreement shall not affect the obligations of any other Party under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.

Section 22.Confidentiality.

(a)Unless otherwise required by applicable law (including in connection with seeking to obtain any shareholder approval of the Restructuring or in connection with any litigation concerning the Restructuring), each Party agrees and acknowledges that, prior to the Petition Date, it will not disclose to any Person the content or any term or provision of this Agreement, other than to the representatives of each such Party or to another Participating Noteholder, unless, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, such Person agrees first to be bound by this confidentiality provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees to permit disclosure of this Agreement and its contents in the Plan Documents and any filings by the Companies with the Bankruptcy Court regarding this Agreement.

(b)Any NDA between any Participating Noteholder and any of the Companies shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the execution of this Agreement, including but not limited to any obligation of the Companies to “cleanse” material non-public information.

(c)Each Participating Noteholder that is not otherwise subject to an NDA with the Companies agrees and acknowledges, that, unless otherwise required by or pursuant to applicable law or a regulatory authority, it will not disclose to any Person any terms or provisions of this Agreement or any Confidential Information provided to such Participating Noteholder pursuant to this Agreement other than to the representatives of each such Participating Noteholder, in each case, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and subject to their agreement to be bound by this confidentiality provision.

Section 23.Consideration. The Parties acknowledge that, other than the agreements, covenants, representations, and warranties set forth herein and to be included in the Plan Documents, no consideration shall be due or paid to the Participating Noteholders in exchange for their obligations in this Agreement.

18

Section 24.Notice. Any notices or other communications in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered in person or upon confirmation of receipt when transmitted by email or on receipt after dispatch by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or on the next Business Day if transmitted by national overnight courier, addressed in each case as follows:

This Term Sheet is not legally binding, is not a complete list of all material terms and conditions of the potential transactions described herein, is subject to material change, and is being distributed for discussion purposes only. This Term Sheet shall not constitute an offer or a legally binding obligation to buy or sell, nor does it constitute a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, any of the securities referred to herein. Furthermore, nothing herein constitutes a commitment to lend funds to the Company or any other party, or to negotiate, agree to, or otherwise participate in any plan of reorganization under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), nor does this Term Sheet constitute a solicitation of the acceptance or rejection of any chapter 11 plan for purposes of sections 1125 and 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code.
