The aggregate principal amount of Initial Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Agreement on the Initial Issue Date is $199,500,000.

On the one-year anniversary of the Initial Issue Date, if the Subsequent Issue Date has not yet then occurred, the Purchasers’ commitments hereunder to purchase Additional Notes shall immediately terminate, and the Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) pay the Purchasers the Additional Notes Termination Fee (to the extent required pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2(b) hereof).

The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability to any Person for the performance or nonperformance by any other Purchaser hereunder.
The Initial Notes, any Additional Notes and any PIK Notes will be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Agreement, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

(b)    If (x) the Initial Issue Date shall have occurred, (y) the MAV Condition shall have been satisfied and (z) the Subsequent Issue Date does not occur on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the Initial Issue Date (other than as a result of any breach by the Purchasers of their obligations to purchase Additional Notes), then on the one-year anniversary of the Initial Closing, in connection with the termination of the Purchasers’ commitments to purchase Additional Notes, the Company shall pay to the Purchasers a termination fee (which shall be allocated ratably to the Purchasers based on their respective obligations to purchase Additional Notes as set forth on Schedule A) equal to the sum of (i) the original issue discount with respect to the Additional Notes that would have been received by the Purchasers if the Subsequent Issue Date had occurred and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount with respect to the Additional Notes, assuming for such

Each Purchaser and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree (i) to treat the Notes and the Warrants as part of an “investment unit” within the meaning of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code and, correspondingly, the Notes as having been issued with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes including the fair market value of the Warrants at the time of the issuance thereof, and (ii) that the aggregate fair market value of the Warrants will be based on a valuation as of the Initial Issue Date, which valuation shall be completed by the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the Initial Issue Date; provided that the Company shall cooperate with the Purchasers and their Affiliates in completing such valuation, including by allowing the Purchasers or any of their Affiliates to review and comment on such valuation before it is finalized, and that such amount will be allocable ratably to the Warrants pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1273-2(h), with the balance of the issue price of the investment unit allocable to the Notes. The Purchasers and the Company shall prepare their respective U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing treatment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Notes and the Warrants covered by this Agreement.
Section 5A.10.    Access to Information.
Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Transaction Documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto), the SEC Reports and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Notes and the Warrants and the merits and risks of investing in the Notes and the Warrants; (ii) access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment.
Section 5A.11.    Securities Law Restriction.
Such Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it has received and may remain in possession of material non-public information about the Company. Such Purchaser further acknowledges that it and its representatives are aware that the U.S. securities laws prohibit any person who has material non-public information about an issuer from purchasing or selling, directly or indirectly, securities of such issuer (including entering into hedge transactions involving such securities), or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. Such Purchaser hereby agrees that it will not use or knowingly permit any controlled affiliate to use any of the material non-public information about the Company in contravention of the U.S. securities laws, and such Purchaser will not purchase or sell the Company’s securities or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any of the Company’s securities at any time that such Purchaser is in possession of material non-public information about the Company. Without limiting, in any way, the foregoing representation, acknowledgement and agreement by such Purchaser, from and after three months after the Initial Issue Date or Subsequent Issue Date, as
-25-

applicable, the Company agrees, to the extent not prohibited by federal securities laws, to notify such Purchaser of each “closing” and “opening date” under the Trading Window (as defined below), in each case, at least two Business Days prior to each such date, and at such Purchaser’s request, confirm to such Purchaser whether a Trading Window is open at such time. The term “Trading Window” means each period during which directors and executive officers of the Company are permitted to trade the securities of the Company under the xxxxxxx xxxxxxx policy or similar policy of the Company then in effect.
Section 5A.12.    Issuance Cap.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not issue, such Purchaser shall not be entitled to receive, and such Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than Brookfield) to not, directly or indirectly acquire, offer to acquire, solicit an offer to sell, own, or purchase, any shares of Common Stock of the Company or warrants (including, but not limited to, the Warrants and the warrants issued in connection with the MAV Transaction and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof) which, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock of the Company then beneficially owned (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by such Purchaser and its Affiliates (other than Brookfield), would result in the beneficial ownership (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by such Purchaser of more than 19.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Maximum Percentage”), unless shareholder approval is obtained in accordance with the listing rules of the NYSE or is otherwise permitted by the NYSE. In addition, unless such shareholder approval is obtained or otherwise permitted by the NYSE, the Company shall not issue, such Purchaser shall not be entitled to receive, and such Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than Brookfield) to not, directly or indirectly acquire, offer to acquire, solicit an offer to sell, own, or purchase, any shares of Common Stock of the Company or warrants, in excess of the Maximum Percentage measured as of the day immediately preceding the Signing Date. Nothing in this Section 5A.12 or Section 5A.13 shall constitute an admission by any Purchaser to a third party that Brookfield is an Affiliate of such Purchaser or that Brookfield’s beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Company should be aggregated with that of such Purchaser or its Affiliates for any purpose.
Section 5A.13. Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
Such Purchaser represents and warrants on behalf of itself and all of its Non-Excluded Affiliates that assuming the accuracy of Section 5.7 and without giving effect to the issuance, conversion or exercise of the Warrants, as of the Signing Date, the Purchaser, together with its Non-Excluded Affiliates, beneficially owns (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) less than 9.9% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, such Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than Brookfield) to not, directly or indirectly: (a) acquire, offer to acquire, solicit an offer to sell, own, or purchase, any shares of Common Stock of the Company which, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock of the Company then
-26-

beneficially owned (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by the Purchaser and its Affiliates (other than Brookfield) (but not including any shares of Common Stock that are issuable, but have not yet been issued, upon exercise of the Warrants or any other warrants held by such Purchaser or its Affiliates (other than Brookfield)), would result in the beneficial ownership (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by such Purchaser and its Affiliates (other than Brookfield) of more than 9.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (unless and until such Purchaser (or such Affiliate, as applicable) shall have obtained any and all state and federal agency “change of control” regulatory approvals that are applicable to the Company and its regulated Subsidiaries required in order to exceed such threshold (which, upon the request of such Purchaser, the Company shall take reasonable best efforts to assist such Purchaser in obtaining)); or (b) except as permitted by this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the MAV Transaction Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements (as defined in the MAV Transaction Agreement), during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending at such time as the Purchasers and their Affiliates (other than Brookfield) beneficially own (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to less than 10% of the then issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company, (i) make, or in any way participate, in any “solicitation” of “proxies” to vote (as such terms are used in the Exchange Act), or seek to advise or influence any person or entity with respect to the voting of any voting securities of the Company, (ii) make any public announcement with respect to, or submit a proposal for, or offer of (with or without conditions) any merger, business combination, recapitalization, restructuring or other extraordinary transaction involving the Company or any of its securities or material assets, (iii) form, join or in any way participate in a “group” as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act (other than with any other Purchaser, any Affiliate of any Purchaser, or any entities, funds, accounts, or clients managed, sponsored or advised by OCM or any of its Affiliates) in connection with any of the foregoing, (iv) make a public announcement in connection with seeking to control or influence the management, Board of Directors or policies of the Company, or (v) take any action that would reasonably be expected to require the Company to make a public announcement regarding the possibility of any of the events described in clause (a) above or this clause (b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) the provisions set forth in this Section 5A.13 shall terminate upon the earlier of (1) the Outside Date, if the Initial Closing has not yet then occurred, and (2) the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Fundamental Change Event and (y) nothing in this Section 5A.13, shall restrict or prevent any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates from (i) purchasing, acquiring or investing in, holding, voting or taking any other action with respect to, or making any offer to purchase, acquire or invest in, any indebtedness or preferred equity of any Person, including the Company or any of its Affiliates, (ii) exercising or enforcing rights expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, the MAV Transaction Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements (as defined in the MAV Transaction Agreement) or as a creditor under applicable law, (iii) making or submitting (on a strictly private basis) to the Board of Directors any proposal or offer that is intended to be made and submitted on a non-publicly disclosed or announced basis (and would not reasonably be expected to require public disclosure by any Person), (iv) receiving any dividends, similar distributions or interest with respect to any securities of the Company held by any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or (v) voting (or
-27-

abstaining from voting) any shares of Common Stock of the Company in any manner that such Purchaser or Affiliate deems appropriate.

Section 5A.14.     ERISA. Such Purchaser represents and warrants throughout its holding of the Notes and Warrants, as applicable, that either (i) such Purchaser will not acquire or hold a Note or Warrant with the assets of a plan or entity that is subject to (a) Title I of ERISA, (b) Section 4975 of the Code or (c) any laws that are similar to Section 406 of ERISA or 4975 of the Code or (ii) such Purchaser’s acquisition and holding of the Notes and Warrants will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of any similar law.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in this Section 5A shall not modify, amend or affect any Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby.
SECTION 6.    Collateral Agent.
Section 6.1.    Collateral Agent.
Each Holder hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Collateral Agent as the collateral agent under this Agreement and the Notes Documents, and each such Holder irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Notes Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the Notes Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the Notes Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or the Notes Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.

In furtherance of the foregoing, each Holder hereby appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Holder for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by the Company or any Subsidiary to secure any of the obligations owing under this Agreement or the Notes Documents, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 6.
The Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the Notes Documents (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof)) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Collateral Agent may also
-28-

from time to time, when it deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Company or any Subsidiary be required by any Subagent so appointed by the Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Company shall, or shall cause such Subsidiary to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent. If any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects with reasonable care.
The Collateral Agent shall not, and neither shall any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Notes Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such person’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) or (b) responsible in any manner to any Holder for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Company or any Subsidiary or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Notes Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Notes Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Notes Document or for any failure of the Company or any Subsidiary a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Notes Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Notes Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Collateral Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (b) the Collateral Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Notes Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Collateral Agent by the Company or a Holder. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Notes Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or
-29-

in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Notes Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Notes Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or 4A or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent.
The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or conversation believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. The Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Notes Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Holders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Notes Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Holders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all of the Holders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Holders and all future Holders.
The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Collateral Agent has received written notice from a Holder or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Collateral Agent receives such a notice, the Collateral Agent shall give notice thereof to the Holders. The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Holders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all of the Holders); provided, that unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received such directions, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Holders.
Each Holder expressly acknowledges that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Collateral Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, shall be
-30-

deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Collateral Agent to any Holder. Each Holder represents to the Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of, the Company and its affiliates and made its own decision to purchase the Notes hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Holder also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Notes Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company and its affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Holders by the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Company or any affiliate of the Company that may come into the possession of the Collateral Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.
The Holders agree to indemnify the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company or any Subsidiary and without limiting the obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary to do so), in the amount of its pro rata share of Notes (determined at the time such indemnity is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Notes Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Holder shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The failure of any Holder to reimburse the Collateral Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Holders as provided herein shall not relieve any other Holder of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Collateral Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Holder shall be responsible for the failure of any other Holder to reimburse the Collateral Agent for such other Holder’ ratable share of such amount. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.
The Collateral Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company and its Subsidiaries as though the Collateral Agent were not the Collateral Agent. With respect to its Notes, the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Notes Documents as
-31-

any other Holder and may exercise the same as though it were not the Collateral Agent, and the term “Holder” shall include the Collateral Agent in its individual capacity.
The Collateral Agent may resign as Collateral Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Holders and the Company. If the Collateral Agent shall resign as Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Notes Documents, then the Required Holders shall have the right, subject to the reasonable consent of the Company, to appoint a successor to serve as Collateral Agent, whereupon (a) such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Collateral Agent, and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Collateral Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Collateral Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any Holders. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Collateral Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation from such role(s), the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation from such role shall nevertheless thereupon become effective (except, in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of the Holders, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed), and the Holders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Notes Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Holders (or the Company) appoint a successor agent to serve in the role as to which the Collateral Agent has resigned as provided for above. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation as Collateral Agent the provisions of this Section 6 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Notes Documents.
The Holders authorize the Collateral Agent to release any Collateral in accordance with the Security Agreement and the other Notes Documents.
Anything contained in any of the Notes Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company, the Collateral Agent and each Holder hereby agree that (a) no Holder shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the Collateral may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Holders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Notes Documents (including the Security Agreement) in respect of the Collateral may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Holder may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Holder (but not any Holder or Holder in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Holders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.
-32-

Any amount received by the Collateral Agent from proceeds of any Collateral following any acceleration of the Obligations under this Agreement or any Event of Default with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary, in each case that is continuing, shall be applied: (i) first, ratably, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Collateral Agent from the Company, (ii) second, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Company hereunder, ratably among the Holders entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (iii) third, towards payment of other Obligations then due from the Company ratably among the Holders entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Obligations then due to such parties and (iv) last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Company or as otherwise required by law or any court of competent jurisdiction.
SECTION 7.    [Reserved].
SECTION 8.    Offers to Purchase; Redemptions; Payment of the Notes and Interest.
Section 8.1.    Offers to Purchase.
(a)    Asset Sales. (i) Within 180 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, including a Required Asset Sale, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option, in any combination of the following:
(1)     to prepay, repay or redeem (i) the New First Lien Notes through redemptions, open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or by making an asset sale offer in accordance with the procedures set forth therein, (ii) the Notes or (iii) Indebtedness secured by a Lien on the asset or assets that were subject to such Asset Sale or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;
(2)    to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; or
(3)    to acquire or invest in other assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business (including, without limitation, Securitization Assets and assets that consist of Servicing Advances, MSRs, mortgages and other loans (including the origination of mortgages, other loans, MSRs and advances), mortgage related securities and derivatives, other mortgage related receivables, REO Assets, Residual Interests and other similar assets (or any interest in any of the foregoing) that are used to support or pledged to secure Permitted Funding Indebtedness or MTM MSR Indebtedness) or to make capital expenditures;
    (ii)    Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings and/or borrowings under Permitted Funding Indebtedness, MTM MSR Indebtedness or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Agreement.
-33-

    (iii)     Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested within 180 days as provided in clause (i) above shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10,000,000, within thirty days thereof, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will determine the amount of the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis or as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.
(b)     Change of Control. (i) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Holder will have the right to require that the Company purchase all or a portion of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101.0% of the principal amount of the Notes purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant regular record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date that is on or prior to the applicable date of repurchase).
    (ii)     Within 30 days following the date upon which a Change of Control occurs, the Company must send a notice to each Holder, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (or, in the case of Notes in global form, delivered), other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Note to the Company at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes; provided that the Company receives, not later than the close of business on the last day of the offer period, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Xxxxxx is withdrawing his tendered Notes and his election to have such Notes purchased.
    (iii)     The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (1) a third-party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer, or (2) an unconditional and irrevocable notice of redemption as to all outstanding
-34-

Notes has been given pursuant to this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2 unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.
    (iv)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control conditioned upon such Change of Control if at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer a definitive agreement is in place with respect to such Change of Control.
    (v)    The Company will have the right to redeem the Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof following the consummation of a Change of Control if at least 90% of the Notes outstanding prior to such consummation are purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer with respect to such Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided herein, any redemption pursuant to this Section 8.1(b)(v) shall comply with Section 8.2(c) and Section 8.4 hereof.
Section 8.2.    Redemption.
(a)    Optional Redemption. The Company may, at its option, upon revocable notice as provided below, redeem at any time all, or from time to time any part, of the Notes (including PIK Notes), at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed, together with (i) interest accrued thereon (including applicable default interest, if any) to the date of such redemption, and (ii) with respect to any Notes (other than PIK Notes) redeemed on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the Initial Issue Date, the Make-Whole Amount as of the date of such redemption.
(b)    AHYDO Redemption. On each Interest Payment Date following the fifth anniversary of the “issue date” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273- 2) of the Notes, the Company shall redeem a portion of the principal amount of each then outstanding Note in an amount equal to the AHYDO Catch-Up Payment for such Interest Payment Date with respect to such Note. The “AHYDO Catch-Up Payment” means the minimum principal prepayment sufficient to ensure that as of the close of such Interest Payment Date, the aggregate amount which would be includible in gross income with respect to such Note before the close of such Interest Payment Date (as described in Section 163(i)(2)(A) of the Code) does not exceed the sum (as described in Section 163(i)(2)(B) of the Code) of (i) the aggregate amount of interest to be paid on such Note (including for this purpose any AHYDO Catch-Up Payment) before the close of such interest payment date plus (ii) the product of the “issue price” of such Note and its yield to maturity, with the result that the Notes are not treated as having “significant original issue discount” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1)(C) of the Code. It is intended that no Note will be an “applicable high yield discount obligation” (an “AHYDO”) within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code. The computations and determinations required in connection with any AHYDO Catch-Up Payment will be made by the Company in its good faith reasonable discretion and will be binding upon the Holders absent manifest error.
(c)    Notice of Redemption. The Company will give each Holder to be redeemed written notice of each redemption under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption unless the Company and the Required Holders agree to another time period pursuant to Section 17. Any notice of redemption for any
-35-

optional redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(a) may be revoked by the Company at any time on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the redemption date. Each such revocable notice shall specify such redemption date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such Holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of the Company as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount, if any (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the redemption), setting forth the details of such computation (provided that if the Company shall subsequently revoke such notice, the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by each Holder in connection with same). Two Business Days prior to any redemption of the Notes, the Company shall deliver to each Holder to be redeemed a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer of the Company specifying the calculation of the Make-Whole Amount, if any. Any redemption notice for any optional redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(a) may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a financing or other corporate transaction. If such redemption is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, in the Company’s discretion the redemption date may be delayed or the redemption may be rescinded in the event any such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the original redemption date.
Section 8.3.    Allocation of Partial Redemptions. In the case of each partial redemption of the Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.
Section 8.4.    Surrender, Etc.
In the case of each redemption of Notes pursuant to Section 8.2, subject to the last sentence of the Section 8.2 and the ability of the Company to revoke a redemption notice at any time prior to the redemption date with respect to any optional redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(a), the principal amount of each Note to be redeemed shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such redemption, together with interest (including applicable default interest, if any) on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount as of the date of such redemption, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall have revoked the redemption notice or shall have failed to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest (including applicable default interest, if any) and Make-Whole Amount, if any, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note redeemed in full or in part shall be surrendered to the Company on or prior to the redemption date and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any redeemed principal amount of any Note and, in the case of Notes redeemed in part, the Company shall issue a new Note to the holder thereof for the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered.
Section 8.5.    [Reserved]
-36-

Section 8.6.    Make-Whole Amount. “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to a Note, the greater of (i) 0.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of such Note and (ii) the excess of:
(1)    the sum of (A) the present value as of the redemption date of the aggregate principal amount of the Note to be redeemed plus (B) the present value of all scheduled interest payments (assuming that the Company would have paid the full amount of interest in cash on each Interest Payment Date) due on such Note through the fifth anniversary of the Initial Issue Date (excluding accrued but unpaid interest up to, but excluding the redemption date), such present value to be computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate three Business Days prior to such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over
(2)    the aggregate principal amount of such Note.
“Treasury Rate” means, as determined by the Company, with respect to any redemption date, the weekly average rounded to the nearest 1/100th of a percentage point (for the most recently completed week for which such information is available as of the date that is three Business Days prior to the redemption date) of the yield to maturity at the time of computation of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 with respect to each applicable day during such week (or, if such statistical release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from such redemption date to the fifth anniversary of the Initial Issue Date; provided, however, that if no published maturity exactly corresponds with such date, then the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated on a straight-line basis from the arithmetic mean of the yields for the next shortest and next longest published maturities; provided, further, however, that if the period from such redemption date to the fifth anniversary of the Initial Issue Date, is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.
Section 8.7.    Stated Maturity; Interest.
The full principal balance outstanding on the Notes shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. At all times that there is a principal balance outstanding on the Notes, interest shall accrue and be due and payable from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Notes.

SECTION 12.    Remedies on Default, Etc.

Section 12.1.    Acceleration.
(a) If an Event of Default described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 11 in respect of the Company has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable and all commitments or obligations of any Purchaser to purchase any Notes shall be terminated.
(b)    If any Event of Default (other than those described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 13) has occurred and is continuing, the Required Holders may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments or obligations of the Purchasers to purchase any Notes.
(c)    Upon any Note becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Note will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Note, plus (i) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including applicable default interest, if any), plus (ii) the applicable Make-Whole Amount (but not with respect to any PIK Note), if any, shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each Holder has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for), and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount, if any, by the Company in the event that the Notes are redeemed, paid prior to their maturity or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default arising under Section 11(g) or (h) (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), the Make-Whole Amount with respect to an optional redemption pursuant to Section 8.2(a) will also be due and payable as though all Notes accelerated (other than the PIK Notes) were optionally redeemed and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any premium (including the Make-Whole Amount) payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the early redemption and the Company agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The premium (including the Make-Whole Amount) shall also be payable in the event the Notes (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means, with respect to all Notes satisfied or released (other than PIK Notes). THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE
-41-

PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM (INCLUDING THE MAKE-WHOLE AMOUNT) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Company expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the premium (including the Make-Whole Amount) is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the premium (including the Make-Whole Amount) shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Purchasers and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the premium (including the Make-Whole Amount); and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the premium (including the Make-Whole Amount) to Holders as herein described is a material inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes.
Section 12.2.    Other Remedies.
If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, any Holder at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such Holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.
Section 12.3.    Rescission.
At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to clause (b) of Section 12.1, the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any amounts outstanding under the Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 12.4.    No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc.
No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or any Transaction Document upon any Holder or the Collateral Agent shall be exclusive of any other right, power
-42-

or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the Holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such Holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.
SECTION 13.    Registration; Exchange; Substitution of Notes.
Section 13.1.    Registration of Notes
. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each Holder, each transfer of one or more Notes and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any Note shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any Holder promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered Holders. This Section 13.1 shall be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. In addition to and not in limitation of any representations contained herein, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be transferred except pursuant to registration or an exemption therefrom.
Section 13.2.    Transfer and Exchange of Notes.
With the Company’s consent (other than (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (y) in connection with the transfer of such Notes to an Affiliate of Oaktree or (z) in connection with any pledge of the Notes), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (other than in the case of transfers to bona fide competitors of the Company) (provided that the Company’s consent to an assignment shall be deemed to be given if the assigning Xxxxxx has not received a written objection to such assignment within ten (10) Business Days of the Company’s receipt of such request for consent), upon surrender of any Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered Holder of such Note or its attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the Holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note; provided that such new Notes shall be in electronic form (in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form or any other electronic form). Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such Holder may request (provided that, except (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (y) in connection with the transfer of such Notes to an Affiliate of Oaktree or (z) in connection with any pledge of the Notes, the
-43-

Company consents to such Person becoming a Holder, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (other than in the case of transfers to bona fide competitors of the Company) and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 1; provided that the Company’s consent to an assignment shall be deemed to be given if the assigning Holder has not received a written objection to such assignment within ten (10) Business Days of the Company’s receipt of such request for consent. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $1,000,000, provided that, if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a Holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $1,000,000. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Notes may not be transferred to a Person that is not a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an “Accredited Institutional Investor” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act).
Section 13.3.    Replacement of Notes.
(a)    Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any, and
(b)    in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the Holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another Holder with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or
(c)    in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,
the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.
SECTION 14.    Payments on Notes.
The Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address the Holder shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or redemption in full of any Note, such Holder shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office.
-44-

SECTION 15.    Expenses, Etc.
Section 15.1.    Transaction Expenses.

On the Signing Date, the Company will pay the reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred on or prior to such date by each Purchaser or Holder in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Purchasers shall retain any expense deposit made on or prior to the Signing Date and apply such expense deposit on the Initial Issue Date to fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated hereby not included in the invoice paid on the Signing Date. To the extent that there is any deposit remaining after all fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated hereby are paid on the Initial Issue Date, the Purchasers shall return such excess amount to the Company promptly thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to reimburse the Purchasers for any fees and expenses in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Purchasers incurred on or prior to the Initial Closing.

All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement or the other Transaction Document, as applicable.

(c)    Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent made pursuant to this Section 17 by a Holder that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Notes to the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company and has provided or has agreed to provide such written consent as a condition to such transfer shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such Holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other Holders that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such Holder.
Section 17.3.    Binding Effect, Etc.
Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all Holders and is binding upon them and upon each future Holder and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and any Holder nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Holder of such Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.
Section 17.4.    Notes Held by Company, Etc.
Solely for the purpose of determining whether the Holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, the Notes Documents or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein, the Notes Documents or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other Holder from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

Each Purchaser and Holder will maintain the confidentiality
-48-

of such Confidential Information in accordance with good faith, commercially reasonable procedures adopted by such Purchaser or Holder to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser or Holder, provided that such Purchaser or Holder may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) such Purchaser’s or Holders’ directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the investment represented by such Purchaser’s or Holder’s Notes or the review or administration of such Holder’s or Purchaser’s investments) and provided that each such recipient shall be informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and shall agree to keep the Confidential Information confidential, (ii) such Purchaser’s or Holder’s outside accounting firm and law firm (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by such Purchaser’s or Holder’s Notes) and provided that each such recipient shall be informed of the terms of this Section 20 and of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and shall agree to keep the Confidential Information confidential in accordance with this Section 20, (iii) any other Purchaser or Holder, (iv) any Person to which such Purchaser or Holder sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (v) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser or Holder, (vi) S&P, Xxxxx’x, Xxxxx IBCA, Xxxx & Xxxxxx or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s or Holder’s investment portfolio or (vii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate, (w) upon advance written notice to the Company (to the extent such notice is commercially practicable), to effect compliance with any law, rule (including stock exchange rule), regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser or Holder, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process provided that to the extent permitted by applicable law such Purchaser or Holder will use reasonable efforts to notify the Company of any such subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation involving this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or in connection with the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s or Holder’s Notes or the Transaction Documents to which such Purchaser or Holder is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser or Holder may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s or Holder’s Notes, the Notes Documents or this Agreement. Each purchaser of a Note or Holder, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement.
SECTION 21.    Substitution of Purchaser.
Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of such Purchaser’s Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that such Purchaser has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Purchaser’s Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 5A. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word
-49-

“Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, wherever the word “Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), such word shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to such Purchaser, and such Purchaser shall have all the rights of an original Holder under this Agreement.
SECTION 22.    Miscellaneous.
Section 22.1.    Successors and Assigns.
All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent Holder) whether so expressed or not.
Section 22.2.    Payments Due on Non-Business Days.
Anything in this Agreement, the Notes Documents or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.
Section 22.3.    Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 22.4.    Construction.
Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.
Section 22.5.    Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by fewer than all, but together signed by all, of the
-50-

parties hereto. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement. Signature pages hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be original signatures for all purposes.

Section 22.6.    Legal Rate of Interest.
Regardless of any provision contained in this Agreement, the rate of interest borne by the Notes shall not exceed the maximum amount of nonusurious interest that may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under any applicable law; any interest in excess of that maximum amount shall be credited on the principal of the Notes of the applicable series or, if that has been paid, refunded to the Company. On any acceleration or required or permitted prepayment or redemption, any such excess shall be canceled automatically as of the acceleration or prepayment or redemption or, if already paid, credited on the principal of the Notes or, if the principal of the Notes has been paid, refunded to the Company. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the maximum amount of nonusurious interest, the Company and Holders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude optional redemptions and the effects thereof, and (c) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Notes.
Section 22.7.    Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State or any other jurisdiction that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.
Section 22.8.    Venue.
Any legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents in any way connected or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto or any of them with respect to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or the transactions related thereto, in each case whether or not existing or hereafter arising, shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan or of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York of such State (provided that if none of such courts can and will exercise such jurisdiction, such exclusivity shall not apply), and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company, the Collateral Agent, each Purchaser and each Holder consents, for itself and in respect of its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. The Company, the Collateral Agent, each Purchaser and each Holder irrevocably waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or any other document related thereto. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall affect any right that the Collateral Agent, any Purchaser or any Holder may otherwise have to
-51-

bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents against the Company or any of its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction (i) for purposes of enforcing a judgment, (ii) in connection with exercising remedies against the Collateral in a jurisdiction in which such Collateral is located or (iii) in connection with any pending bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding in such jurisdiction.
Section 22.9.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.
THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

The execution hereof by the Purchasers, the Company and the Collateral Agent shall constitute a contract among the Purchasers, the Company and the Collateral Agent for the uses and purposes hereinabove set forth.

Notices of any meeting of the Board of Directors shall be distributed to the Board Observers at least forty-eight hours in advance of any meeting of the Board of Directors, provided that in the event the Company determines, in good faith, it is advisable to hold a meeting on less than 48 hours advance notice, the Board Observers shall receive notice no later than the notice delivered to the Board of Directors. The Company shall promptly reimburse the reasonable and documented expenses of any Board Observer in connection with attending any Board of Director meetings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board Observers shall not be entitled to attend or participate in any relevant portions of meetings or receive any relevant portions of Board Information in any instance if, but solely to the extent that, the Chairperson of the Board of Directors or the applicable Board committee reasonably determines that discussions of a specified matter in the presence of, or the sending of such Board Information to, the Board Observers, in each case, (x) will result, based on advice from counsel to the Company (including in-house counsel), in the loss of attorney-client privilege for the Company with respect to such specified matter or (y) would prejudice the Company’s negotiating position on matters in connection with the Notes, the Warrants or the MAV Transaction as a result of the existence of a conflict of interest with respect to the applicable matter. The confidentiality provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Board Information or information disclosed to the Board Observers at any meeting of the Board of Directors (it being understood that such confidentiality limitations shall not prevent disclosure of Board Information or information disclosed to the Board Observers at any meeting to the Purchasers or their directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys
A-6

and affiliates, to be held by such parties in accordance with the terms of Section 20). The Company shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Board Observers in advance if the Company anticipates the Board Observers will be excluded from a portion of a meeting.

(2)    the making of any Restricted Payment, either (i) solely in exchange for shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Company, (ii) through the application of net proceeds of a substantially concurrent sale for cash (other than to a Subsidiary of the Company) of shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Company, or (iii) through the application of a substantially concurrent cash capital contribution received by the Company from its shareholders (which sale for cash of Qualified Capital Stock or capital contribution (to the extent so used) shall be excluded from the calculation of amounts under clause (3)(b) of the immediately preceding paragraph and which sale or contribution being deemed substantially concurrent if such Restricted Payment occurs within 60 days of such sale or contribution);

The Note Purchase Agreement provides that upon any consolidation, combination or merger by the Company or any transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole in accordance with the foregoing, in which the Company is not the continuing entity, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, lease or transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes with the same effect as if such surviving entity had been named as such.

B-12

judgment of the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, are no less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s-length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company or such Subsidiary.
All Affiliate Transactions (and each series of related Affiliate Transactions which are similar or part of a common plan) involving aggregate payments or other property with a Fair Market Value in excess of $15,000,000 shall be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, such approval to be evidenced by a Board Resolution stating that such Board of Directors has determined that such transaction complies with the foregoing provisions.

9.Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries
The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default or Event of Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 3 of this Annex or under one or more clauses of the definition of “Permitted Investments,” as determined by the Company. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.
Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Collateral Agent by filing with the Collateral Agent a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 3 of this Annex. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 2 of this Annex, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would occur and be continuing following such designation.

Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Notes Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Company, then the Company shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Holder receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by Company. The Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the applicable Holder timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Holder, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

reduced rate of withholding.

(D)    if a payment made to a Holder under any Notes Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Holder were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Holder shall deliver to the Company at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company such documentation prescribed by Applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company as may be necessary for the Company to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Holder has complied with such Holder’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)    [Reserved].
(i)    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Holder and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Notes Document.
