Section 6. Transfer of Claims and Interests.
(a) During the Effective Period, no Commitment Party, as applicable, shall sell, use, pledge, assign, transfer, permit the participation in, or otherwise dispose of any ownership (including any beneficial ownership3) in any Debtor Claims/Interests in whole or in part (each, a “Transfer”) to any party, unless, solely with respect to Debtor Claims, it satisfies all of the following requirements (a transferee that satisfies such requirements, a “Permitted Transferee,” and such Transfer, a “Permitted Transfer”):
(i) the intended transferee (x) is another Commitment Party, (y) as of the date of such Transfer, the Commitment Party controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such Commitment Party, an affiliate, affiliated fund or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor, or (z) executes a transfer agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Transfer Agreement”) prior to or concurrently with the closing of such Transfer; and
(ii) notice of any Transfer, including the amount transferred and, in the case of (i)(z) above, the fully executed Transfer Agreement, shall be provided on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis to K&E, Milbank, Xxxxx Day, S&C, Xxxxxx, and R&G within three (3) business days following the closing of such Transfer.
(b) Upon satisfaction of the requirements in Section 6(a), (i) the Permitted Transferee shall be deemed to be a Commitment Party hereunder, and, for the avoidance of doubt, a Permitted Transferee is bound as a Party under this Agreement with respect to any and all claims against, or interests in, any of the Debtors, whether held at the time such Permitted Transferee becomes a Party or later acquired by such Permitted Transferee, and (ii) the transferor shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (and be released from its obligations) under this Agreement to the extent of such transferred rights and obligations.
(c) Notwithstanding Section 6(a), a Qualified Marketmaker4 that acquires any Debtor Claims with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such Debtor Claims, shall not be required to execute and deliver to any of K&E, Milbank, Xxxxx Day, S&C, Xxxxxx, or R&G a Transfer Agreement in respect of such Debtor Claims if (A) such Qualified Marketmaker intends to subsequently transfer such Debtor Claims (by purchase, sale,
3 | As used herein, the term “beneficial ownership” means the direct or indirect economic ownership of, and/or the power, whether by contract or otherwise, to direct the exercise of the voting rights and the disposition of, the Debtor Claims/Interests or the right to acquire such claims or interests. |
4 | As used herein, the term “Qualified Marketmaker” means an entity that (a) holds itself out to the public or the applicable private markets as standing ready in the ordinary course of business to purchase from customers and sell to customers claims against or interests in the Debtors (or enter with customers into long and short positions in claims against or interests in the Debtors), in its capacity as a dealer or market maker in claims against or interests in the Debtors and (b) is, in fact, regularly in the business of making a market in claims against or interests in issuers or borrowers (including equity or debt securities or other debt). |
16
assignment, participation, or otherwise) within five (5) business days of its acquisition to a transferee that is an entity that is not an affiliate, affiliated fund or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor, (B) the transferee otherwise is a Permitted Transferee and (C) the Transfer otherwise is a Permitted Transfer. To the extent that a Commitment Party is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation or otherwise) any right, title or interest in the Debtor Claims that such Commitment Party acquires in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker from a holder of the Debtor Claims who is not a Commitment Party without regard to the requirements set forth in Section 6(a) hereof.
(d) This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude the Commitment Parties from acquiring additional Debtor Claims/Interests; provided, however, that (i) any Commitment Party that acquires additional Debtor Claims, as applicable, after the Agreement Effective Date shall notify K&E, Milbank, Xxxxx Day, S&C, Xxxxxx, and R&G of such acquisition, within five (5) business days following such acquisition, including the amount of such acquisition on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis, which notice may be deemed to be provided by the filing of a statement with the Bankruptcy Court as required by Rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, including revised holdings information for such Commitment Party and (ii) such additional Debtor Claims/Interests shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by a Commitment Party, as applicable, be deemed subject to the terms of this Agreement (regardless of when or whether notice of such acquisition is given to the respective counsels to the Commitment Parties).
(e) In addition, other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, any holder of Debtor Claims/Interests shall become a Party, and become obligated as a Commitment Party, solely to the extent (i) the ascension of such holder to this Agreement is consented to in writing (with email being sufficient) by Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, the Requisite Additional Investors and the Requisite Consenting Noteholders (which consent of any of the foregoing shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) and (ii) (x) such holder executes a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “Joinder Agreement”), and shall be deemed a Commitment Party hereunder and (y) such joinder is delivered on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis to K&E, Milbank, Xxxxx Day, S&C, Xxxxxx, and R&G within three (3) business days following the execution thereof.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Commitment Party shall sell, assign, transfer, permit the participation in, or otherwise dispose of any ownership (including any Beneficial Ownership) in any Debtor Interests, in whole or in part, until (i) the Effective Period has terminated and (ii) such Commitment Party has filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D with respect to Xxxxxxx disclosing such termination.
(g) Any Transfer made in violation of this Section 6 shall be void ab initio. Each other Commitment Party shall have the right to enforce the voiding of such Transfer. Any Commitment Party that effectuates a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee shall have no liability under this Agreement arising from or related to the failure of the Permitted Transferee to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
17
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 6 shall not apply to the grant of any liens or encumbrances on any claims and interests in favor of a bank or broker dealer or prime broker holding such claims and interests in custody or prime brokerage in the ordinary course of business and which lien or encumbrance is released upon the Transfer of such claims and interests in accordance with the terms of the custody or prime brokerage agreement(s), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, a bank, broker-dealer or prime broker holding custody of the claims and interests shall not be subject to the terms of this Agreement solely when acting in such capacity.
Section 7. Representations and Warranties.
7.01. Representations and Warranties. Each Commitment Party represents and warrants, severally, and not jointly, and, upon the Debtors becoming a Party, the Debtors also represent and warrant, to each other Party, as of the date hereof (or as of the date a Permitted Transferee or Debtor becomes a Party) that:

18

(b) The board of directors, board of managers, or such similar governing body of any Debtor reasonably determines in good faith after consultation with outside counsel that continued performance under this Agreement would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, that the Debtors provide notice of such determination to the Commitment Parties within three (3) business days prior to the date of such termination;
22
(c) The Requisite Commitment Parties give a notice of termination of this Agreement;
(d) On the date that an order is entered by the Bankruptcy Court or a court of competent jurisdiction denying confirmation of the Approved Plan or declining to approve the Disclosure Statement (in each case, unless caused by a default by any Debtor of its obligations hereunder, in which event the Debtors shall not have the right to terminate under this subsection); provided, that the Debtors shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.02(d) if the Bankruptcy Court declines to approve the Disclosure Statement or denies confirmation of the Approved Plan subject only to the making of ministerial or administrative modifications to the Approved Plan or Disclosure Statement; and

9.04. Mutual Termination. This Agreement, and the obligations of all Parties hereunder, may be terminated by mutual agreement among the Debtors and the Requisite Commitment Parties.

9.06. Effect of Termination.
(a) No Party may terminate this Agreement if such Party failed to perform or comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with such failure to perform or comply causing, or resulting in, the occurrence of one or more termination events specified herein. The date on which termination of this Agreement is effective shall be referred to as a “Termination Date.”
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date as to a Party, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect as to such Party and each Party subject to such termination shall be released from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had, had it not entered into this Agreement, and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Restructuring Transactions or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement, including with respect to any and all claims or causes of action; provided that such termination shall not relieve any such Party from any liability arising prior to termination. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date prior to the Confirmation Order being entered by a Bankruptcy Court, any and all consents or ballots tendered by the Parties subject to such termination before a Termination Date shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void from the first instance and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Restructuring Transactions and this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, any Commitment Party withdrawing or changing its vote pursuant to this Section 9.06(b) shall promptly provide written notice of such withdrawal or change to each other Party to this Agreement and file notice of such withdrawal or change with the Bankruptcy Court. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting a Debtor or any of the Commitment Parties from contesting whether any such termination is in accordance with its terms or to seek enforcement of any rights under this Agreement that arose or existed before a Termination Date. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict (a) any right of any Debtor or the ability of any Debtor to protect and reserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Commitment Party and (b) any right of any Commitment Party, or the ability of any Commitment Party, to protect and preserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Debtor or Commitment Party. No purported termination of this Agreement shall be effective under this Section 9.06(b) or otherwise if the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement is in material breach of this Agreement, except a termination pursuant to Section 9.02(b) or Section 9.02(e).
9.07. Automatic Stay. The Debtors acknowledge that the giving of notice of termination by any Party pursuant to this Agreement nor compliance with any provision hereto shall not be a violation of the automatic stay of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, that nothing herein shall prejudice any Party’s rights to argue that the giving of notice of termination was not proper under the terms of this Agreement.

11.21. Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any right, power, or remedy thereof by any Party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by such Party.

IN RE: XXXXXXX MOTION INC., et al.
Restructuring Term Sheet
This term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) sets forth a summary of the principal terms of the Approved Plan (hereinafter, the “Plan”).1 The transactions contemplated in this Term Sheet are subject in all respects to the negotiation, execution, and delivery of definitive documentation.
Until publicly disclosed with the prior written consent of Honeywell and the Plan Sponsors, this Term Sheet and the information contained herein is strictly confidential and may not be shared with any person other than in accordance with section 11.02 of the Coordination Agreement; provided that Honeywell and the Plan Sponsors, with the consent of the Requisite Additional Investors (which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), may mutually agree to submit this Term Sheet and corresponding Plan as a joint bid in connection with the Debtors’ sale process and/or otherwise propose this Term Sheet and corresponding Plan to the Debtors.
THE COORDINATION AGREEMENT AND THIS TERM SHEET ARE BEING ENTERED INTO IN ANTICIPATION OF SUBMITTING AN ALTERNATIVE PLAN PROPOSAL FOR A PLAN OF REORGANIZATION TO THE DEBTORS. THIS TERM SHEET DOES NOT CONSTITUTE (NOR SHALL IT BE CONSTRUED AS) AN OFFER WITH RESPECT TO ANY SECURITIES OR A SOLICITATION OF ACCEPTANCES OR REJECTIONS AS TO ANY PLAN, IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT SUCH A SOLICITATION, IF ANY, ONLY WILL BE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ALL APPLICABLE LAW. THIS TERM SHEET DOES NOT ADDRESS ALL TERMS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY POTENTIAL TRANSACTIONS REFERENCED HEREIN AND THE ENTRY INTO OR THE CREATION OF ANY BINDING AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO THE EXECUTION OF DEFINITIVE DOCUMENTATION. THIS TERM SHEET HAS BEEN PRODUCED FOR DISCUSSION AND SETTLEMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF RULE 408 OF THE FEDERAL RULES OF EVIDENCE AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE OR FEDERAL RULES OR DOCTRINES PROTECTING THE USE OR DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION EXCHANGED IN THE CONTEXT OF SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS. THIS TERM SHEET INCORPORATES THE RULES OF CONSTRUCTION SET FORTH IN SECTION 102 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE. NOTHING IN THIS TERM SHEET SHALL BE DEEMED AN ADMISSION OF FACT OR LIABILITY BY ANY OF THE PARTIES.
GENERAL PROVISIONS REGARDING THE RESTRUCTURING
Initial Parties to Term Sheet | (a) Honeywell;
(b) Oaktree; and
(c) Centerbridge. | |
Convertible Series A Preferred Stock | Reorganized Xxxxxxx shall issue shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of up to approximately $1,150 million in the aggregate in cash on the following terms and conditions: |
1 | Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in Annex 1 attached hereto or the Coordination Agreement (the “Coordination Agreement”), to which this Term Sheet is attached as Exhibit A. |
• Dividend. 11% per annum. Payable in cash or PIK at the option of reorganized Xxxxxxx; provided that dividends will automatically PIK during any period in which the Reorganized Debtors’ adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis for the twelve months immediately preceding the declaration of the dividend falls below $425 million. During any period in which dividends are payable in cash or PIK at the option of reorganized Xxxxxxx, the cash/PIK election will be determined by a majority of the disinterested members of the New Board (with the benefit of input from reorganized Xxxxxxx’x executive management team as such disinterested members deem appropriate).
• Conversion. Each holder will have the right to convert its shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock into common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx, based on a conversion price of $3.50 per common share (the “Conversion Price”) and the liquidation preference of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock. All outstanding Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx (i) with the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock or (ii) automatically on the first date on or after the date that is two years from the Effective Date on which: (a) $100 million or less of Amortization remains outstanding on the Series B Preferred Stock; (b) the common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx has a 75- day volume-weighted average price per share that is greater than or equal to 150% of the Conversion Price; and (c) the Reorganized Debtors’ adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis for the prior twelve months equals or exceeds $600 million for two (2) consecutive quarters. The common stock issued upon such conversion shall be registered on a resale registration statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not previously declared, and any dividends paid in kind on shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall not be convertible into common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx, and shall be paid in cash in connection with the conversion or repayment of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock.
• Ranking. Senior liquidation and distribution rights with respect to all other preferred stock and common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx. For the avoidance of doubt, in a sale, liquidation, or similar event, if not previously converted, the holders of shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends thereunder, whether or not previously declared, and the greater of (i) the liquidation preference of such stock and (ii) the amount the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock would receive if such shares converted immediately before such event into common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx pursuant to the conversion right specified above. Following the issue date, no preferred shares or equity securities ranking pari passu with or senior to the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock may be issued by the Reorganized Debtors without the consent of (x) holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock and (y) holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. |
2
• Voting. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock will vote on all matters before holders of common stock in reorganized Xxxxxxx as a single class with such holders of common stock on an as-converted basis.
• Maturity. Perpetual.
• Liquidation Preference. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall have a liquidation preference equal to $1 per share.
• Redemption. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock will not be redeemable by the Reorganized Debtors, except that (i) at any time following the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date or (ii) in connection with a transaction resulting in the transfer to a non-affiliate of (a) 50.01% or more of the total voting power of reorganized Xxxxxxx or (b) all or substantially all of the assets of the Reorganized Debtors (a “Change of Control”), reorganized Xxxxxxx may redeem any Convertible Series A Preferred Stock not converted into common stock of reorganized Xxxxxxx for an amount equal to the liquidation preference plus the amount of any dividends that have accrued and not been paid in cash (including PIK dividends).
• Financial Covenant. The Reorganized Debtors will not be able to incur debt that would result in leverage of greater than 3x the Reorganized Debtors’ annual adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis, without the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock.
• New Money Investors. The Plan Sponsors and the Additional Investors shall commit, severally and not jointly, to purchase shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of approximately $1,050 million in the aggregate in cash in accordance with the allocation annex attached hereto as Annex 2.
• Rights Offering. Further, reorganized Xxxxxxx shall conduct a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in which all holders of common stock of Xxxxxxx shall receive subscription rights to purchase (subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws) additional shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of up to $100 million in the aggregate in cash (with such maximum aggregate purchase price calculated as though all subscription rights are exercised).
• Consent Rights. The Plan Sponsors may not modify any of the foregoing terms or conditions, unless (i) Honeywell and the Requisite Additional Investors consent or (ii) such modification does not adversely affect the economic treatment of Honeywell or adversely affect the Additional Investors as provided herein. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock and the issuance of such securities shall otherwise be on terms and conditions that are acceptable to the Plan Sponsors with the consent of Honeywell and the Requisite Additional Investors (in each case, which |
3
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Following the issue date, any amendment, waiver, or modification of any term or condition of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall require the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of such stock. | ||
Pro Forma Capital Structure | The Plan shall provide for the recapitalization of the reorganized Debtors (the “Reorganized Debtors”) on the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”). |
